Gmail help - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So my problem lays with gmail not notifying me of new emails. No sound, no icon in status tray, nothing. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the app. I reinstalled the ROM multiple times. Once with restoring the data and the once without restoring data. I restored a backup. I even reverted back to stock. Nothing seems to allow me to get notification of new mail. When I open the app, it shows new mail but I am never notified. Please help.

I had this problem once. Make sure that gmail sync is on under the Google settings and make sure you have app data sync on also.

Both items are on. I'm pretty stumped on this. I haven't had this happen before. I get notification for everything else except gmail.

[Q] Contacts Sync Problem

Hey Guys,
I am having "Force Close" when I try to sync my contacts with google account. I am running stock build and not even rooted. Suddenly yesterday I had a force close and I tried to wait for a day, also restarted my phone twice between yesterday and today. Then I tried to dig into the problem and realized that it was a problem with contacts syncing. If I remove check mark from contacts and sync there is no problem. But when I try to sync contacts it gets force close.
I have plenty of apps on it and also plenty of customization. I do not want to do factory reset. I had set this phone up for about 25-30 days now. No problems untill now.
Please some one help me. Oh and it is my primary google account.
Anybody?

Somebody in this thread is saying that there is a problem with Google's sync, but I don't know if it is the same issue. Maybe try waiting it out for a day?
Also if you try a different Google Account does it have the same problem?
I don't know about that. As I have too many contacts. and my another email is just junk. It's only for fun stuff. So I can't check synching problems with that account.

if you are trying to sync contacts with your google.com account. google is having a global issue. I work for tmo so can confirm. no eta just keep trying.
I had this problem yesterday morning, but all has been fine since.

I am still having that issue. I am willing to wait. But I really don want to factory reset.

TRy uninstalling previous one.
is anyone else having issues sending MMS? If I try to send an mms in hangouts it becomes unresponsive and force closes. The only way to get back was to go into app info and select "clear data" before restarting the app. I haven't really been able to test sms that much since no one has texted me back (6am and all) but I can't get mms to work properly at all

Turn off the Screen Filter app and then try the install again. :good:
Supposedly its ready for download in the Play Store, but when I updated mine stays at version 1 something. I tried clearing cache, uninstalling updates and starting over. Says version 2 in the store but when finished its still at 1 on my phone.

Email exchange issues

Hi all,
Just got the nexus 5 and live everything about it except one thing, the email app. I can't tell if it's exchange services or the app itself, but "unfortunately email has stopped" keeps popping up randomly and will not stop. Another wrote thing is that the so manager will not let me wipe data (screenshot). Things I tried:
*rebooting
*deleting the apk through titanium, wiping data and reinstalling
Any ideas? I really need exchange email for work and it's driving me crazy.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using xda app-developers app
Seems you screwed up something with titanium so do a factory reset and flash back to stock and test it out then and see if it all works fine. After that then do some changes slowly to see if it comes back again to narrow it down?
I have this problem with my Nexus 5 as well. It's been this way since I got it. Really, really annoying. This has been an ongoing problem for a while. I wish there was a fix....

I just wiped, flashed factory image and factory reset the phone and still getting these crashes and it is still not letting me wipe data from the app manager...
Any other suggestions? Right now, I'm going to try to delete the exchange accounts but it's not even letting me delete accounts!! I'm going to try to switch to ART to see if that helps at all, and will give an update.
Any other email clients for android that support exchange?? I'm lost at this point and I really tried everything I know before posting.

This is total stock? As if factory image?
I don't think there's much you can do to fix the problem. There are a lot of people in the same boat. If you search Google, there are several posts about the same issue. Last time I checked, there's no fix.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using xda app-developers app
Yeah, factory image and it still didn't work.
I just ended up flashing twrp and cataclysm ROM and that fixed it.

I'm using Touchdown (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nitrodesk.droid20.nitroid) from Nitrodesk.
Works perfect for my needs
Had battery drain issues with the stock exchange app, so I switched to Touchdown
Hope this helps for you as well
EDIT:
Just read your later post that you switched ROM
cheers
I m experiencing another issue..!!
I get couldnt sign-in error!!
Any solutions for this!!
Dont frget to press the THANK button!!!
Just an update, the new ROM solution was working for a few hours but starting to have issues again with "unfortunately email app has stopped working" errors.
I think it has to be how my exchage accounts are setup:
- One gmail account on IMAP
- 3 Exchange accounts on push notifications and sync all mails
Outside of that setup, nothing special. Anyone experiencing the same?

One last update (unless it creeps up again). I switched the syncing of emails to date back 30 days instead of "All" and that fixed the "unfortunately email has stopped" messages completely. The HTC One email client never had that issue so I assumed that wasn't the problem but I guess the email client on this phone is a bit more sensitive.
Ok, the problem crept back up again... the error message keeps coming back, and in the app manager, the "clear data" button is greyed out so you can't even start over unless you remove all the accounts.
I would like to ask anyone that has working exchange accounts (multiple) on the native email client share their setup and the app versions etc.

Account not syncing with phone

I'm having a problem with my account syncing to my phone. When I go into my sync settings I get the, "Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly." error at the bottom. I receive emails and am able to go on the play store just fine, but everything else isn't really working, especially my calendar.
I've recently changed roms-from Bam Android to Pacman-but I've had this problem for about a week before I changed, and its been almost two weeks now.
I've tried everything. Factory reset, disabling and re enabling accounts, clearing caches, downloading third party apps. But my calendar and contacts still won't sync-though I don't really care about the contacts one. In fact calendar isn't even in my sync list to be checked. Why is that? And can someone help me?

I'd personally check with the developer of the ROM you're using.
I'll try that but I personally think it's on Google's end. Cause it was acting like this on a different rom I was on, and now, all of a sudden my Play Store isn't syncing. I need to find a way to contact Google.

Can't connect p3110

Hi Everyone
My dad has a Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7 (I think p3110) and he has had some lag issues. He is running stock Sammy 4.2.2. I suggested he factory reset his tablet. We did this by holding power and volume up. Wiped data /factory reset and then cache partition (it rebooted automatically). When up and running he logged into Google account but then when he opened play store it said it couldn't connect. The Internet browser would not connect. But he could send and receive emails through sock email app (!). We tried factory reset through settings app and have tried removing and readding Google account and also clearing Google services and play store caches. Nothing seems to work. Anyone any ideas please?
Have you configured your WLAN again? After factory reset you have to do this.

WLAN? Can you explain more please fredy66?

Problem solved. We went to my house and as soon as it connected to my wifi everything worked fine. Maybe an issue with my dad's router. Good news is that I convinced him to root his tablet!
