I'm not sure if there is a definite fix. The last thing I read was to try moving it to /system/app.
moving gmail to /system/app works. Since I moved mine, I haven't had the blank email problem.

I'm having a similar issue with Gmail and pulse too. When ever I click on a news story it comes up blank. If I go into the task manager and close pulse or Gmail its usually fixed though.

Although it's a good alternative I prefer Gmail due to my paranoia of third party substitute applications, Its ironic because I'm using a 3rd party Rom but if it uses a form of XOauth or Oauth, I may consider it

So my GMail works on my phone. But doesn't actually change anything on GMail when I view it on a desktop. It used to be when I viewed an email on my phone it would show up on my desktop as viewed. Now when I view it on my phone, I check my desktop and it doesn't update to reflect what I have viewed.
Any way of fixing this? Running cm7 RC1

Hey all. I've run into an issue where my phone refuses to download Facebook from the market.
I'll click to download and it begins the download process but it terminates at approximately 45% every time. I don't receive any error prompts or anything, the download just stops and disappears from my notifications.
Any chance anyone could post the most recent version of Facebook for me and I coud see if sideloading it would alleviate this issue?
Try installing sgs tools and then clear your market cache.

in case anyone does need the latest facebook APK, here it is:
Facebook v1.5.2
Facebook v1.5.2 is pretty buggy and does a lot of FCs on my captivate. I wouldn't recommend updating your FB app if you haven't already.

I get push notification now with facebook. I didn't get it when i was on CM7 but after switching to continium 4 i started getting notification ... weird.
I wasn't getting push notifications myself and was using flow for like a week. All I had to do was change my current facebook email to the gmail one I made when I got this phone and everything is working properly and notifications are actually arriving on time.
Hey, guys. I've noticed other phones having this problem, and it looks like the Xperia Play on Verizon is affected, too. When I go to Menu/Settings/Account & sync and try to add a Facebook account, it goes right back to the Account & sync page without adding Facebook. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling it with no success. Is there some sort of workaround?
Thanks
looks to be a issue w/ our phone.. I posted the same thing in general.
I added my fb account without any problems..

you are not running stock GB on Verizon tho
Yeah, I suppose I should have posted what I'm running. Currently I'm running Android version 2.3.2, Build number 3.0.E.2.89
All stock. (On a side note, this is also preventing me from rooting at the moment.)

Well, the only one I've tried is Tango, but I read that the front camera not working is a known issue with that app and our phone. I haven't tried any others yet.

This is a remnant from the other builds I think. On other stock android devices, Facebook can still be a contact provider. Something is blocking it in the OS level from some tweak by SonyEricsson.
HOWEVER! You can get around it by using SonyEricsson's Life.Contacts as a synch partner to synch up FB contacts.

Hmm... I'll have to check that out. Thanks for the link.

Yeah, this is an issue, I think, that has to do with Sony stripping the Xperia facebook-in-android experience parts out of the phone, but forgetting to re-enable the FB built-in synch that it was blocking.
So for right now, you have to use the Life.Contacts app to be able to synch FB. The problem with it though, is that the config is only available through Life.Contacts' widget. So it makes it a bit of a pain. It also only works with one account type at a time. So you can't use Life.Contacts to synch FB, Twitter, and other social networks at the same time to my knowledge.
Ok so... How do you actually get this to work? I downloaded and installed life.contacts and linked to my facebook, but my contact still don't show their pictures and info. Did I do something wrong?
Since I did the update to ICS on my Transformer, my gmail app stopped working. Now when I load it, it appears for a second then the screen goes black and I find myself on my homescreen.
I've uninstalled the app and cleared data. Neither worked.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk 2
Same thing happened to me..then after about a month it started working again. I figured there was probably some email that was giving it issues, until enough time passed that it stopped trying that particular one.
Maybe try deleting (or moving) the messages that came in right before it stopped working? (via gmail.com)
I'll look at the specific emails but don't see how that should effect anything. Worth a shot.

there's another post here about maps, and people there were having issue with gmail too.
when i did a logcat when gmail error out and fc, it was telling me openGL out of memory?.
i'm on team EOS ICS stable. so your not the only one having issues with gmail. and it doesnt seem like a ROM issue too, cause each one of them was using a different ROM.
i hope this get cleared up soon

Yes I hope they can get this cleared up as well. I haven't rooted it and it was working before I did the update to ICS. Other than the Gmail issue, I haven't had any other problems since I updated. However this is a big issue for me because I use Gmail so much and having to use a browser to access it is becoming a real pain.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk 2
Well I got it to work! I did a factory reset and gmail is working perfectly. Now that I think about it, it makes sense. I should have done this sooner. I hope this can help others who have the same or similar issues.

so looks like VZW has left out or over looked (not like they didnt take their time on this update) to include the required MmsService.apk
Without this some, if not a lot of third party SMS apps will not send MMS, Google's hangout and Google's messenger app for example.
By installing this, flash it, extract it, or just install the APK. (if you dont have root this is the only way) This WILL fix the issue

Believe me...I do too, however with the stock sms app if a group message come in, clicking the notification take you to the individual sms thread for the person that sent the text, not the group chat, which in of itself was enough to drive me crazy.

From my understanding LP on vzw took away the ability to edit the apns which I would imagine you had to change to get all the tmo stuff working.

Oddly enough I had to set up nothing on 4.4.4, it just worked once I have it on HSPA mode instead of LTE/CDMA
I'm stock and rooted while my wife's is stock. We both upgraded to Lollipop and was/is using Textra before the upgrade and continue to use it without an issue. I've sent and received MMS without hiccups.
Are we odd ones out or is there some bug that I'm not experiencing and could possibly find a fix on my phone to share with everyone?
