Hey guys gmail giant sending emails. It can receive them fine but just leaves my messages in the outbox as sending but they never send. Tried reflashing ROM and grappa but no luck

I have this same problem from time to time. Usually, Ill have to go in to app manager, clear cache, then try again. usually that gets it going. if not, back to app manager, clear data, then create new email and it will go. Its stupid, i want to know why this happens.
This happens infrequently, but when it happens its a royal PITA.
I always end up Uninstalling the Gmail account, and Reinstalling, as mentioned by the other poster.

Has anyone noticed that what they do within the Gmail app on the Xoom isn't syncing with your desktop machine?
In other words - when I read or delete or change labels on an email in the Gmail app, I don't see the changes reflected if I go to my Gmail on my laptop. (They are still sitting in my inbox, unread).
Go into settings/applications /manage applications/all applications. Open Gmail and "clear cache ", them "clear data "
Ignore the warnings. Back to home page and open Gmail. You should be good to go.
That worked!
Thanks!
Sync hangs
I'm not sure if this is the exact same problem but I tried to send some large attachments recently and the sync seemed to hang all night. It would not send the email I originally was going to send plus three other I did afterwards before I noticed the issue. I was more concerned with sending these emails then checking to see if the sync error was affecting the receive mail process. Rebooting did not help so I ended up deleting the account and adding it back again. It took a while to do the normal initial syn but it seemed to clear the problem.
A week later I had the same issue although this time I noticed right away (instead of the next morning like before). I did a search and found someone advising to go into the Androids Setting then manage apps and then Gmail. To hit clear data and click
ck OK to the warning that tells you that all data, including any mail, will be deleted. I was not worried about the outgoing mail I was trying to send as I could easily redo it. This did work Ase I went into Gmail and it had to sync up withe servers but everything was back. The weird thing is that my message was sent and no longer under Outbox marked as "being sent". So either it sent it this time but was not showing this or it sent it real quick before I cleared data.
Either way it's fixed for now but who knows if it will happen again soon.We shall see.
I hit the button and nothing.... just stays in the email. tried clearing the cache and data. uninstalled gmail and reinstalled.... and loaded a new rom version (senseless extreme... but this is something that suddenly started..... was working fine for a few weeks)
Any ideas?? sending from the computer works fine, as well as saving the draft on the phone, and receiving, and all that fun stuff.
have you tried removing the account and re-adding it?
I remember somewhere else someone suggested what you have already cleared and account data.
It worked once for me with Desire HD but I suspect its all the when it comes to software
i would assume that loading the new rom and in turn signing into my account again would be about the same thing... going to try a clean load today and see if i can narrow it down
Has anyone figured this out yet? I have been having the same problem for months. The only way I have found to fix it is to reload the ROM (or load a new one).
I have cleared data, cache etc. I have disable and re-enabled syncing. I have uninstalled and re-installed the Gmail app from the market and nothing. I rely on Gmail for work so I really need this app to work. I hate having to flash my phone each time this crops up...
Have you cleared defaults? That's what got mine going again after titanium backup didn't restore everything correctly.
Just curious...? After you flash these ROMs, are you using Titanium Backup to restore any system or account data? This I know can cause multiple issues and GMail is very dependent on Accounts.
The "I can't send anything in GMail, but I can still receive messages." issue happened to me twice with my Sensation and I was able to resolve it both times by just clearing data from the application in: Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > GMail. I know you mentioned doing this and it not helping, but I just wanted to be clear on my experience with such a problem.
All of a sudden my gmail stopped sending pictures. they just sit in the outbox and even block regular emails from sending.
Ive already cleared data and re synced but it didnt help.
any thoughts?
thanks
update:
Scratch that the clear data did work but it just took a while to actually send (up 15 minutes) but that could have been since i get crap att service.
Well mods can either delete thread or leave it in case anyone else has the issue and runs a search.
Reinstall app works well too.

Hello, I am having some when I send my email it get stuck in the outbox. I tried clearing the cache and data on the gmail app and I was able to send one email and they problem started again. I rebooted the phone and still no luck. Can anybody help me out? I am running stock gingerbread rom.
edit: seems like the file might be too big...I sent another file no prob
just letting you know that you arent the only one. I'm rooted & tried on various roms and have had the same issue. I've also had it where it would send an email & it'll be marked as abdraft even though it went through.
I finally said f it and installed Boat Browser Mini w/ homepage set to gmail and just do it that way.
Ivenhad the same problem....especially after a nandroid restore.
This happens after most of my nandroid restores. It's a real PITA but go into settings, applications, gmail, and clear data. It syncs everything up again, but you will have to restore settings too (notification tones, font size, folder syncing, etc.) It sucks, but it works every time!

I have been having a serious ongoing issue with the Gmail app on my droid charge. Before I begin, know that I have experienced this across 3 roms (humble, gummy, infinity) and with two different droid charge devices. Basically, when I hit the send button on an email, it just grays out and doesn't do anything. This usually happens after 2-3 successful sends. It doesn't freeze or give any errors, the send option just becomes inaccessible. Choosing to send through the menu button option doesn't do anything too. The messages don't even go into the outbox, it just sits there and saves it as a draft after I exit. Please tell me I have just overlooked some obscure setting.
What I have tried to fix it unsuccessfully:
Clearing all data and cache for the gmail app
Uninstalling and reinstalling/updating the app
Removing the screen filter app from my phone (read about some possible interference with this app)
Wiping Cache and Dalvik via CWM
Restarting the phone, and also after each of the methods above
What has worked:
Wiping my phone via CWM or Odin (factory, not just cache and Dalvik) but this only works for the first few emails and goes back to the same issue.
I feel stuck and hate not sending emails. I know I can choose another app but I really just prefer the gmail app (that's not a crime is it?) Anyone else experience this? I have searched several forums and tried solutions listed there but with no luck.
this sounds strange... have you tried to add a different google account to your phone and see if it has the same issue with sending? you could then remove the affected one and re-add.
this is the only way to point the finger at the device... if the alt works then its your gmail profile. if it doesn't then it could be the stock .apk for gmail.
Tried that

I have tried with my personal and work gmail accounts as well as my "former" account and all three experience the same issue. I thought of that as well. I feel like I have tried everything, multiple accounts, different settings, updates, removed other applications and whatever else I could think of. Thanks.
Go to application data in the settings menu, find the gmail app and clear all of the caches you can. Re sync and it might work. I've had this issue and it cleared it up.

Idk if you just ignored his OP or what but he already said he tried this.
Im in the same boat different phone. My gmail app doesnt send for me either on my galaxy s 2 att, or my iconia.
Edit: i just read a post somewhere that said if you have seal with root permissions than somereason it keeps gmail from sending... take away itsnroot privlages and reboot (this fix worked for me, hope it helps)
As far as seal goes i hope tthey fix this issue as i like that app
I had seal and experienced the same problem with gmail. Uninstalled seal and gmail worked again. Never could figure out why it was happening.

Seems to have worked for me too. Can't believe that was the issue. Thanks for everyone's help!
I really hope they fix that. Its okay though, I think seal was slowing my phone down a bit. Everything is much more responsive now.
