I have an Omnia W which I updated a couple of days ago. But now I noticed that the GoogleMail App that came pre-installed crashes whenever I press on it. It just shows a loading sign and throws me back to the launcher/home-sreen.
Also, I can't even access the "email+accounts" option from the settings menu. It also has the same problem. When I press on it first displays a black screen and then comes back to the home-screen. Although the internet runs fine and i can also use my facebook account through the phone.
Has anyone else faced this problem before? If yes, please reply. And if no, then can anyone suggest a possible solution for this asap.
My Gmail inbox is working just fine. By the way, "pre-installed app" is a bit inaccurate; it's just the built-in Outlook functionality of WP7, which will create a new link (going to the Inbox) for any email account you add to the phone (including Google).
All that said, if your Gmail "app" isn't working correctly (and it sounds like it's not just your Gmail, but the whole Google account on your phone) then the first thing you should do is try to sign into Google / Gmail through a web browser (on the phone or on the PC) to make sure your account is working. If so, and you still can't access your Google account on the phone after a day or two of waiting, you may just need to hard-reset the phone.

I set up my Xoom with my exchange account last week, everything was working fine or so i thought. Now im seeing that Im getting email 10-15 min after it shows up in my inbox. When I was using touchdown I would get the email on my Xoom before my computer most times. Is anyone else haveing issues like this. I prefer the stock app but I would like email to come in fast. Right now I must go into the email app and refresh it.
more info:
3g xoom
Connected to work wifi at this time
set to sync 1 week (Push as messages arive)
no contact sync
no calendar sync
Things I have tried:
removing the account, clearing data and application menu, re-add
I changed the ammount sync'd to 3days (no change)
someone help
Self bumb. HELP IM GOING NUTS. I noticed the same issue is going on with my phone too. all other users in network with android phones are fine. just me >.< could activesync be freeking out because I have 2 devices trying to sync
Noticed a bit of a delay as well today with the stock app. My phone (Nexus one) gets mail pretty much at the same time outlook does but a 5 minute delay on the Xoom. Are you guys on Exchange 2010 or 2007? We are on 2007 currently migrating to 2010 and should be completely done with the move in a few weeks. Hoping 2010 corrects the issue.
Are you using any task killers? I am so tomorrow I am going to disable them and see if there is a change.

So no luck this morning with the default email app. Touchdown, however, worked nicely. I am actually receiving my email on the tablet before my phone now. Not the ideal solution but it works.
I have the same set up. Android phone and Xoom set up to activesync. Every once in a while, the xoom is very slow in updating. Not sure why. If anyone has any thoughts, please let us know!
I think this is an issue with Honeycomb. I have also noticed that sometimes GMail does not sync as quick as my phone does. Using the Wifi Only model btw.
Ok, after i went home last night I noticed things got better. Today while im at work everything seems ok. takes about 10 sec or so to sync to my Dinc and Xoom.
What we did to fix things:
1. logged into the mobile admin site for our active sync, I have been sync'ing virtual android systems and I had 9 different devices sync'ing everytime an email went out. so we deleted all my unused devices. ( there was 2 copies of my phone from flashing)
2. In the mobile admin site your exchange account is seen by an Alias. whith all the T/S steps I had been trying my alias in exchange got deleted. This does not prevent Active Sync from getting email to me but it does make it look a bit longer to find the right mailbox.
3. I noticed that I had many services trying to sync the same info this is bad. Touchdown was still running even after i tried to remove my account. Uninstalled it. Gmail is trying to sync books/calendar/contacts so i uncecked all ( I use exchange for everything)
4. Under running services I saw that attachment downloader was running in overdrive all the time. So in the account settings of the exchange account I unchecked " auto download attachments when on wifi." We email pdf's all the time they can get big and I saw that I would not get am email untill the entire pdf was downloaded. Also We use HTML email sigs, each sig is 3 attachments. After I made this change the attachment downloader service seemed to let up alot. if it didnt help me email issue it at least freed up some ram
Im not saying that anyone of these steps was the end solution to my problem but they all seemed to make things run a bit better.
Hi everyone, I hope this question hasn't been asked before (I couldn't find anything, but I'd be surprised if I were the only person with this problem).
I just got a Nexus S (not rooted or anything yet) and a friend wanted to check his email on it, but the Gmail website doesn't seem to work unless I'm on wifi (It finishes loading very quickly and all I get is a blank white page - no error message or anything). I tried going to the site directly (wwwDOTgmailDOTcom, gmailDOTcom - same problem) and accessing it through a google search (gmail, gmail login, gmail mobile, etc.), but no dice. It works fine on wifi. Is there a way to get it to work, or has anyone else had this problem? I have Java, flash, and plugins all enabled in my settings, and everything else seems to be working great both on 3G and wifi.
If that doesnt work, does anyone know if it requires a lot of data to temporarily sync someone's account to my email app and then remove the email account when they're done? I had to do that to get my friend's account to work, but I wouldn't want to do it all the time if that's what I need to do for a friend to check their email on my phone.
Thanks in advance to anyone who helps out. I know it seems like a dumb question, but I'm new to Android and couldn't find anything in any of the settings menus. I assume it's because Google wants you to set up accounts for syncing, but in this case it's just for people who want to log in quickly and check their email.
(sort of a bump)
Since nobody seems to know what my problem is, could someone please check if they have any difficulties logging into gmail's website on 3G (NOT wifi) and let me know if it works? I haven't rooted or anything, so it would still help me know if it's a phone problem or something with my settings. Thanks.
i have same problem
No gmail and no downloads from google market app on 3G. All work fine through WIFI. (Droid 2 from Verizon, now using on other network).
Im having trouble connecting to Facebook chat or Facebook feeds and Marketplace. I get "Can't get feeds. We are having trouble getting your feeds right now. Try again later." when looking at Facebook updates. I get "Can't connect to chat" and "Can't connect to see who's online" on the facebook chat. I've never been able to see any MSN Messenger contacts. When trying to download an app from the Marketplace I get "There is a problem completing your request. Try again later. Error code: 80070490" Everything worked intitially except for the MSN Messenger. Restoring the phone corrects everything minus the MSN Messenger which is what I did last time. Restoring the phone every 2 months is not an option so I'm hoping someone can point me to a fix!
Thanks in advance!
I've just had the same problem. I tried everything. Updating phone, reinstalling Zune, but i think the only way to fix it is Hard Reset. Sorry...
1) Did you link your facebook to your hotmail account? If i remember that was required pre nodo and is how mine is setup
2) Go to email accounts under settings. hold finger on windows live and press sync (also change the setting to as items arrive for windows live)
3) Do the same for syncing with facebook account. (i also found sometimes to update friends immediately that you add through pc you have to go in there and sync the facebook
Also when you say restore... you mean from backup? have u tried a hard reset instead? (i would recommend it at this point) and are you on mango?
Hey,
I recently changed my password of my facebook account and now my phone prompted I should re-enter my passsword.
So I reenter it but it keeps saying it's wrong. I also tried deleting it, and readding it manualy and on my PC through Windows Live but it's a no-go.
Sometimes it also says "Something went wrong".
Is anyone else experiencing issues, or is there something I can do about it?
Remove it both from the phone (built-in feature) and from your Windows Live account (may need to use the website for this). Reboot the phone, and make sure the Facebook integration really is gone (no FB chat, for example). Then, re-enable them in the usual way (add the Facebook account, try to enabled FB chat, accept the connection to your WLID, etc.)
I *think* this will work.
I did this a few times and did not solve my problem
Anyone who flashed the new android L factory image facing this issue where not all the contacts from exchange server are getting sync'd?
Not working for me either. Also calendar from Exchange (Office 365 in my case) is not getting synced, and I cannot even see it in the list of available calendars.

Can you sync email normally? I couldn't even sync email since it told me exchange services has stopped every seconds
E-mail sync works fine, and even the Exchange policies came through correctly (PIN & encryption in my case). Posted question to Google Product forums as well.
UPDATE: Now after 2,5 hours of waiting, I do see calendar items and also contacts being synced from Exchange, so I'm considering this working for me at least for now.
My exchange is not working. Just syncing mail forever (nothing ever comes up) and calendar wont show. I have cleared data for exchange and gmail and deleted and readded the account several times. No luck at all. Please help me, I need to get to my work mail!!
Just an update. The issue is now resolved.
Here is what I did: I completely removed the exhange server account. Reset phone. Create exhchange server account and let it do it's thing while it was pulling down the info rather than try to much around with the phone this time around. Worked just fine. All contacts / emails / calendar everything sync'd correctly. I am connecting to outlook.office365.com.

During the time for syncing, have you received any notification ( error) which tells you the "Exchange services has stopped" ?

Hi, please help me. I have a company Exchange account on my N5 and everything works well, except the contacts sync. If I create a new contact on Nexus 5, it won't be sync to Exchange. In the opposite direction - from desktop to N5 - works well. (I choose the "Exchange contact", if I create a new contact, please tell me other something...) All the other syncs work well, like calendar, e-mail, only this way doesn't work. So what is your opinion, your method can help me as well? Or it is a bug in Lollipop? If I remember, it worked well with 4.4.4, but I'm not sure
I deleted all phones from Exchange (there were N5 a few times and my last phones as well) and my Exchange account from phone as well. Next I sync and the result is: when I create a new contact on the N5, it will be appear in the "Recommend Contacts" account. Then I can move it to "Contacts" account. It isn't complete solution, but better then earlier
