Is this possible? My sync tends to be really slow sometimes. I've been waiting about 20 mins now for Gmail to push a message to my device. I'm using the TrickDroid v3 ROM.
I cleared my cache for Google Mail and that seemed to work. However, while on a mobile connection Gmail refuses to sync.
I cleared my cache, cleared all the data for Gmail and even deleted the account and re-added it. Still nothing?!?!?! IM and the web works over 3G/HSPA just not sync.
The sync use to he so much better about a year ago. They kept updating the app and other thongs and now the sync just sucks. When people tell me they sent me an email I'm forced to go into gmail and refresh myself or ill stay waiting forever.

My problem was an APN issue, I just needed to clear out some other settings I had in there. The sync seems to work fine and it's quick enough.

I am on the stock ROM rooted. I have a gmail, google apps, facebook app - Not HTC Sense (contacts only) and weather(3 hours) accounts setup. Something seems to hang while syncing and the sync icon stays on for a long time. This will cause emails to be delayed in showing notification.
I cannot figure out what it is that is causing the issue. I am also assuming this is not good for battery life. When it is hung like that I can look at each account on the accounts & sync tab and none of them show active syncing. If I cancel the sync and then sync now they will all sync and complete as expected.
Any one else seeing this? Any ideas on figuring out what account is causing it?
Mine does this too. I'm rooted, running Perfect Storm v1.0. I also did the 'Kernal/OS tweaks'. I'm not sure what caused it, but it's been doing this on and off for a couple days. I also had that ooVoo video app installed and when I uninstalled it, the sync indicator went away. (I had previously set the ooVoo sync to off). I'll post if I find anything.
I selected each account and disabled sync for each one and it still showed the sync icon later on. Do we know what all triggers the sync icon?
Any one else having this issue?
I was having the same issue. No idea what was causing it, I thought it was Facebook, but I froze it and it still was popping up. I did install advanced radio tools in settings from Jcase and leankernal from Imoseyon...
Yeah I am unrooted still and have this same issue with gmail delay. I can send an email to my self and watch it pop up almost immediately on my old eris connected to wifi but actually have to launch gmail to get the email on the thunderbolt. WTF!? Thats basic stuff. I cannot for the life of me figure out how it works fine on the granddaddy eris but not on the grandson TB. I have one personal gmail account and one gapps account. The only difference in the phones (other than the obvious massive power difference) is 4g so I wonder if this 1st gen 4g device wasn't polished enough back at the HTC labs?

I have 1 of each account type as well. What about other of you having this issue?
I've been experiencing this all day. Won't sync my g-mail accounts. I froze HTC Sense, could that be the cause?
EDIT: Unfroze sense and it still won't sync my g-mail. Syncs my contacts fine, just not my calendar or my e-mails. I deleted data and it did nothing except remove all of the e-mails that I had on my phone. Still wouldn't sync so I booted up my backup, and it STILL is not syncing. Please tell me I'm not the only one experiencing this problem.
Recently my gmail has stopped background syncing, as well as my google calendar. I think my contacts aren't syncing either. If i got into gmail and hit refresh it pulls all the emails, same the other services.
Why has it stopped doing it automatically? Labels are set to sync, background updates are on, im connected to wifi, my google account is set to sync, not rooted. The standard email is updating in the background with my uni account like it should. Gmail is working on my Desire (MIUI).
Please help.
Cheers
Go into Applications for each. Choose "clear cache " and then "clear data ". Ignore the warnings.

I tried this, it didnt work, I then unchecked both sync, and bacgrkound sync, and checked them again, and now it works.
Thanks
Sorry to bump an old thread, but this is happening to me again. I deleted all the data and restarted, but it's still not background updating. Kind of makes the Xoom worthless for me as that's my main use for it... (unactivated 3g xoom on wifi only). anyone have any ideas?
I have two problems since I did a manual upgrade to my I9020T from 2.3.6 to 4.0.4
Exchange Emails - I am using the stock email app. I found that every few hours, the exchange data gets refreshed and all mails gets deleted from handset. Then it will immediately start downloading all mails again from the beginning. This is causing huge data usage and battery drain. I have tried deleting all email accounts, delete call cache in recovery menu and re-creating exchange account again. Still problem persists. When ever the email app starts a refresh, first it will show "No Messages" and then it will again download all emails.
Calendar: Recurring meeting in calendars do not sync with my handset. Other meeting sync without any issues.
Has any body faced such a problem?
I've experienced the same problem with the email client the and the sync.
I had to delete the exchange account from the phone because it ate the battery in 3-4 hours.
You can try deleting data under Settings | Apps | all for calendar, calendar storage, email and exchange services.
Also, I've a lot of issues being resolved by doing a factory reset after updrading to ICS 4.0.4 (just make sure you backup your info).
Factory reset is the last thing I want to do. I have more than 50 games installed and other apps are also installed. I will need to download all of them again if I do a factory re-set. But if there is no solution, I will have to do it any ways. Would a factory re-set delete data from the additional storage on the phone?
Alternatively I have configured touchdown for emails and it works fine. But it does not sync calendar at all. Under accounts and settings, when I open touchdown I do not even see the calendar sync option. Not sure if this is a compatibility issue with ICS.
I finally did a factory reset of the phone and have configured exchange email. Everything seems to be fine. No refresh - delete of emails and recurring meeting sync is too working fine.
Nice!! Good thing is working now!
The problem has come back. I don't think I can do a factory reset every 2-3 weeks. This must be a bug in the stock email client. What is the best alternative email app that I can use? Let me know if you know anything.
I think there is no other solution to this issue unless Google fixes this and I see a remote chance. Untill I am ready to throw this and buy a new phone, I want to get an alternate solution.
I'm on the SGS2, and also on 4.0.4.
My issue is similar, but not quite like yours.
I have some recurring meetings that do sync. I'm just not getting anything new to sync.
Maybe an update will fix it.
Anyway, just wanted to let you know that you're not alone, and that it's not limited to your phone.

Seems to be a common problem - I've also got exactly the same problem on my Desire with 4.0.4
I had issues with stock client and an exchange account too, honestly, after so much researching, i just got Enhanced Email from the market, works so much better
I tried Touchdown as a replacement. It worked fine for 2 weeks. And now, similar problems are back with Touchdown as well. It is now happening at least once a day. All mails get deleted, and downloaded again. The only difference is that Touchdown downloads mails faster than the stock email.
So, I believe the problem lies with ICS 4.0.4 and how it handles Exchange services. I am not sure if google is even ready to recognize this problem. I had posted this issue in google forums, and no one from google have answered anything.

I'm assuming this works OK on gingerbread? If not could be a problem with the exchange server

While I have not tested this exchange server when my Nexus S was running gingerbread, there are others in the company who are connecting to the same exchange server from their gingerbread phones without any problem.
So I am assuming this works on gingerbread. Is there any setting that need to be looked at the exchange server when the connection is from a ICS phone? Just trying to think differently.
Hi,
Just wondering if there's been any updates on this?
Same problems on my Desire HD running IceColdSandwich 8.6.1... with emails syncing ok, but no exchange calendar sync...
...weird in that no error messages comes up when i press directly to sync calendar, but yet no data coming through.
Like I said though, emails and even contacts are coming through to the device ok.

My problem got resolved by doing factor reset & flashing Google factory images as I was on stock ROM. You can try format of /system in cwm recovery and flashback the ROM. This could be a corruption in Exchange connected. You should take complete backup though.
Alternatively you can try using another email client and see if calendar syncs. There are many in play store.
Right now I am on a custom JB ROM and every thing is fine.

I had this problem since I had to reconfigure exchange after out server was migrated. I disabled the calendar sync and the issue did not reappear. Not sure if that is related or just a coincidence.
ever since I've been trying ICS ROMs, gmail has been very slow to sync.
If i delete a message from OSX Mail, it doesn't go away for hours or more.
Priorly, if I deleted a message from either the Sensation or OSX Mail it was gone from both nearly instantaneously.
Any suggestions or ideas?
I clear cache and data from the phone then un-sync'd and re-sync'd gmail. No change.
Perhaps the is a webmail setting I've changed?
So, we have 2 ATT GS5 phones that have been updated to Lollipop since the software was released. On May 7th, my wife's phone just stopped syncing Gmail. Funny thing is, it syncs all the other google services under accounts (Calendar, Contacts etc...) When you look at Gmail under accounts, where all the google services are, the Sync arrows never go away on the Gmail section. Also, since I cleared all app data, when you go into Gmail for the first time, it just stays at the pulling down email screen.
-I tried clearing Gmail app cache and data buttons, no good.
-Tried the uninstall updates button, rebooted, re-installed updates, no good.
-Rebooting phone and removing batter, no good.
-Tried clearing off all her pictures/videos to make more space (now have 5GB free), no good.
What else is there?

there are nothing to do gmail your gmail app. go to setting. search for accounts and sync setting there you can check or open the Background Data also you can check in Auto Sync. also you may find their your gmail accounts so you sync them manually.
