Default email app broken?

Hello all,
Received my Nexus 5 yesterday. And it appears the changes they've made to the new default email app have broken Exchange support. I've found a couple of other similar topics but non describing my exact issue.
My note 2 works perfectly with my Exchange 2010 account. When I try and set it up on the Nexus 5 (either using autodiscover or manual setup) I just get the error "Couldn't connect, Couldn't sign in".
I've tried it on other non 4.4 devices and it works perfectly. Anyone having this issue or know how to contact google about it?

my exchange mail with stock email app works, so it must be exchange settings that are the issue for those with problems
Sent from my Nexus 5 using xda app-developers app

Ditto

My company decided to add some security policies to Exchange (must have screen lock security, encrypted, etc.). After they implemented all these policies, the stock Android email client stopped working for me. I have to use an alternative program like Touchdown ($20 freakin dollars ) otherwise I have to encrypt my phone which I don't want to do

My email syncs when I first setup the account, but it never syncs again. Swipe to refresh, menu>refresh, Settings>accounts>sycn, none of those pull any of my new messages down. I know everything is entered correctly since it pulls all my messages the first time when I set it up. I've tried deleting the account and setting it up 4 or 5 times now. Anybody else having this issue?

I have mine setup and its working correctly. It did require some more setup than the old app did though.

Exchange services keeps crashing.

I get the error "unfortunately exchange services has stopped working" every so often on my Nexus 5. I am rooted but on stock. I also disabled the email app. I cleared data on the email app as well. Anyone else running into this issue?

I had the same issue. Go into settings > applications > all applications.. and disable Exchange Services as well. It has the same icon as the email app. That fixed it for me.

That is really not a fix. Its a workaround. Mine is doing that as well... not sure why... i disabled mine since i not connected to any exchange servers but to those who are... this really doesn't fix anything for them

I have this issue constantly, I have my hotmail email address set up and it uses this. If I disable exchange services I can no longer receive emails but with it on I get crashes sometimes every 2 seconds. It will crash again faster than I can send the error report.

Do we have solution for this yet?
Android update to 4.4.2 also didn't help solving this issue. One thing to note is, this is happening only if the Email exchange services are of 6.1 version, i have checked on another Nexus 4 having 4.4 which has 6.0 (exchange service).
There is no problem with 6.1.

Looks like a calendar problem
I have the same problem with 6.1 exchange services. But so far the contacts are sync with the hotmail account, it's only the calendar that throws the error box.
Its quiet annoying that you use the best devices in the market and one small service application can make it look all bad.

4.4.3 still no fix
I had called Google toll free and had registered a ticket for this problem. I was told that the 4.4.3 update will fix the problem of exchange 6.1.
Got the update today.. Nothing has changed.. guys only thing is to now change the device.

[Q] Cannot sign into google account on s2 plus

Hey guys, I have this problem and it is really annoying me and it is very serious.
I have a rooted Samsung Galaxy S2 Plus GT-I9105 (android version 4.2.2) and only a few hours ago, my Google Account showed "Can't Sync" and "Sync will be back shortly" type of messages. As a result, I couldn't sync contacts, access Google+ and couldn't open Google Play even if there was Wi-Fi.
Also note that every other account like Dropbox, Evernote, Whatsapp and Viber etc work and I am even able to browse the web on the Chrome app. Also the internet connection in my home is working okay.
I searched for solutions and some people said to remove and add my Google account again. I removed my account and after that I couldn't add it again.
Any help please. thanks a lot.

do a factory reset of your phone first
then try logging in
if not, flash another firmware would 100% fix the problem

from the first moment when you root your phone
you should be aware that you would definitely lose all your things on your phone one day.
try clearing data and force stop google service framework and things related to accounts

Try clearing cache (sdmaid), try rebooting the phone or if all else fails try uninstall/reinstall

Gmail not syncing one specific account

For the past two weeks, the Gmail android app has stopped automatically syncing mail from my primary Google account. Sync is turned on in both the Gmail app as well as in Settings. I've tried toggling them off and on as well. Other Google accounts sync mail without a problem so I don't think it's an issue of Gmail not running in the background but I've also set the app to "Unrestricted" battery usage.
I've tested this on 4 different Android devices and my personal account doesn't sync on any of them (including an older version of the app). I'm currently using the Outlook app until I can figure out the problem and it automatically syncs the account just fine. Co-incidence or not, I started noticing this around the time I installed Nameless ROM on my Oneplus 8T. I've tried totally removing the Google account from the devices and re-adding it multiple times. Any idea what could be causing my personal Google account not be playing nice with the Gmail android app?

Did you find a solution ? Im facing same problem. Just one account doesnt sync and its my primary... I tried different phones and on all of them it cannot sync my data on that account. Gmail not working untill I enter it

Unfortunately, no, I haven't found a solution. I'm just continuing to use another email for that account.
Did it start completely out of the blue for you or had you recently installed a custom ROM or anything?

Installed custom rom but on different phone. My main is stock

Also already uninstalled every device from myaccount.google.com and still doesnt work. I've tried also on fresh phone but it doesnt work too. I have other gmail accounts and they are syncing without any problems on every device.

Yeah, sounds like we have the exact same issue. I also asked on Reddit a couple weeks ago and didn't get any responses. I'll let you know if I find a solution though.

Just an update to say that my account has started syncing again today. I didn't make any changes recently on my end so I still don't know the cause but at least it's resolved.
