SGT will not sync gmail - Galaxy Tab 10.1 General

Title says it all. I have tried everything I have found in this forum with no luck. Basic problem is I have to click refresh in gmail to recieve my email. I am not rooted and my htc evo and desktop all work flawlessly and notify me about new emails. Any ideas would be helpful.

Go to settings / accounts and sync / and verify you dont have any red icons on the gmail account. If you do there are normally error why. You can also ensure you have mail checked to synchronize as well as contacts.
That is the first step that comes to mind. If you have not already, delete amd readd the acct. You will want to play close attention when setting back up the settings on each setup page. You may have set sync frequency to manual or something.

I have deleted the account and deleted the data from the gmail app under manage applications. I have checked and unchecked the sync setting many times. Each time I re check the gmail sync it syncs fine and if I have a new email it will notify me but after that if I get an email I get no notification on my SGT unless I click refresh in the app or uncheck then re check sync.

What are your notification settings in the gmail account application?

Notify in system bar when email arrives

Do you have any other Android devices? If so, do they sync correctly?
Do you have any type of authentication set in gmail?
Have you tried a factory reset?
Are you using the gmail app and not the email app?
Do Google Talk notifications work correctly?
Sorry if some of these questions sound dumb, but better to cover all bases before moving on.

Awe good point.... I think he is using the email app vs the gmail app. I dont think the notification option mentioned is available in the gmail app.

Trust me they are not dumb questions I did tech support for a few years... It is just sad when you have to ask "Is the computer plugged into the wall socket?" Anyway yes I have an HTC EVO the gets the IMAP push just fine as does my desktop running Chrome. I have just a regular single password set up for gmail. I have not done a factory reset yet. I am using the gmail app. I dont use google talk but google voice notification work. The voice notifications are not IMAP but set on a timer ever 15 minutes however.

I had this same problem and tried everything toto make it work. I never got it fixed, so I did a factory reset and it works fine now.

Thats what I am thinking of trying. Wish it could be simpler though. :\

I think i had this once.... But a delete and readd fixed it. Do you have your gmail setup to backup your apps and bookmarks to chrome? You can also use mybackup pro to backup other on device media and OS settings. =)

Just tried a factory reset and the problem remains. Could my router be blocking the push. Chrome gets the push fine on the same router I use the extension "Google Mail Checker" I am out of Ideas.

Try restarting your router just in case.
I don't know if this applies to your issue? http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Google Mobile/thread?tid=3a06c995ce0f82ae&hl=en

Yep that is the same problem I am having. That page was my first try for a fix before posting. I went through all of those steps and it didnt resolve the issue thats when I posted here. I am begining to think I am just out of luck.

Completely disabled firewall on my router and boom it works. WOOT! Do you know what port # IMAP could be using different than what chrome is using.

Re enabled firewall still working. Beats me. :-|

Very odd. Would think a router would come out of the box ready to support email protocols.

Google Voice not Auto-Syncing

This problem just started yesterday. Google Voice is not syncing unless I manually refresh it. This leads to a lot of missed texts.
All data sync options are on, battery is set to performance mode, auto sync is enabled, sync only over wi-fi is off. I don't know what to do.
Can anyone help?
Also Gmail sync is not working.

I had this problem temporarily about a week ago. I had the sync button in extended controls and turned off syncing. I deleted.the widget and stated over and didn't have gmail out google voice because the sync was off in the settings. Not sure in your case though
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
I've got auto sync enabled in Power Control as well as SwitchPro. Also in Quick Settings and Settings. No dice.
Sent from my DROIDX using Tapatalk
Really sorry to hear this, as I use Google Voice for my texts. I wish I could give you some advice, but I can't. Reinstalling, wiping the cache, or a factory reset are the only things that come to mind.
Okay, I uninstalled and reinstalled and now it syncs but doesn't notify me until I open the app.

I had the same issue.You can set google to text you when you have a new voicemail. It'll send the message via the google voice app and show up in your notifications.

3rd party email problem

Hey everyon, so through my email app I hve my hotmail account syncing up to it. The problem I have is that when I receive an email and delete it from my phone, it does not delete it from my email account. I only check my email by computer every couple of days so its a PITA to delete a couple hundred emails when I do get on a computer. Does anyone else experience this and if so is there a work around or a free app that will sync my email and delete them from the server as well as my phone

Probably because I've had the email account for years before I had the phone, hell i'vehad th account before there was gmail. I understand that it is a google phone and that Gmail works better with thr phone but With over 200 email contacts I can't just drop my hotmail account.

First off, I don't have experience with your senarion.
That said, have you checked any settings on the phones email app nd hotmail for this problem? Also, do the emails that don't get deleted appear read? Or they unread?

If you go into the email app, then 'Settings->Incoming server settings->Delete email from server', you can change it from 'Never' to 'When I delete from Inbox', although I have had mixed results with this actually working on my Hotmail account. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesnt.

google account not synching

on my nexus 7 my gmail is only syncing when I click sync in the app and I can't log into google talk, anyone know what causes this/ how to work around it? I tried removing and re-adding the account, and droping all syncing and rebooting then re-adding. would prefer to avoid a hard reset if able as it took forever to install all the apps on it.
tried removing auto sync from data tab and restarting and re-enabling no dice... thinking I may be stuck with a reset... boo
Reset did nothing...

Gmail not syncing...

Seems that ever since I bagan using ROM's on my N7 I have been unable to automatically sync my gmail. This is the 3rd one that I've tried. Ensured that all settings are set up correctly (Gmail sync and Email notifications on) and of course my GNex has no issues retrieving email. I can manually tell it to sync and it will, but otherwise nothing. Tried deleting the account and restoring and not seeing any change. Also cleared the cache and nothing changed. Anyone else have this issue?
Since yesterday I have the same issue. I had to reinstalla the rom on my phone, restore all the apps with TB, everything works but the mail even if it is checked sync they don't sync...the same for calendar too. I have to manual sync.
Tried delete account, uncheck e check sync, delete cache , delete update and redo update...nothing seems work...I really don't know what to do...
Try putting the power widget on your homescreen and press the sync button on the widget. It sounds stupid but ive had to do it once in a while.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
My power widget doesn't have any "sync" button, just wifi, brightness, rotation and bluetooth...I have an ICS rom...
I notice if I take a look in the google account settings, even if the email is sync checked the time of syncing doesnt cheange, it is the last I manually sync...

Settings - account - Google - click on your email, make sure your Gmail account/sync is checked.
Yes it is... But I saw not only Gmail is not sync, but also calendar, drive ecc., this mean there is a problem with Google account sync... Time of last sync is when I manually sync...
I also notice the wifi icon, when I'm connected to wifi is gray and no blue...I remeber it was blue when the google account was working...
Honestly I'm really confused... Don't know what to do...
UPDATE: I saw I cannot access to my google talk...I'm offline, I try to turn on but very quick windows and then it keep offline...

Samsung - please fix the Email app

I am using the native email app for my exchange account. It is useless..
1. Keeps force closing
2. Whenever I try to move a message to a folder it keeps loading then closes
I was hoping it would fix with the new OTA update but not luck.
I am using N900 model.
I actually have the same problem but on a S800 version of the phone.
I've tried clearing the cache, removing my account and a lot of different things.
I am rooted, use a different dpi than stock but via xposed it is stock dpi. It never worked w/o fcing the first time I open it, even before I was rooted even.
If I want to read an email I open the app, it fc's, then I open it again and all is fine...
Would be nice of anyone had an answer or fix for this.

Have you tried flashing one of the ROMs? Maybe it works fine in those?
Something causes the crashes and I suspect it's folder naming related and is depended on the local language. I thing even if I don't have the problem we must somehow contact sammy for this.
You have the problem in normal pop3 accounts or exchange accounts only?

I have zero problem with the email app. 2 exchange accounts on it. So maybe it is indeed something about your particulars accounts.

i have this problem on my exchange account... not quite the same, but every time i get an email or notification to do with that account, i can't access it from the notification bar or the app will force close. even if i try to clear all notifications or clear just that one, it freezes up the phone for about 5 seconds then force closes the email app
any ideas? this sucks... i need that account for work...
I think we need to narrow down the problem, what I can do is to make for you a test email in my company just for you to test, I'm with exchange 2007. What you think,? I'm really thinking that is regional problem or something that has to do with character encoding in the phone or in the exchange server or even with the certificate.
You both have knox enabled?
Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk 4
Well I have frozen the knox crop via titanium backup.
I've only setup a Hotmail account. Never had any problems on my old note 2 or s4. Not even on 4.3 Google edition roms or aosp. Anyway, the problem was there even before I rooted strangely. Even when I swipe away email notifications the app fc's.
Could it be an email.apk problem in the /system/app folder?
Could someone with root please upload it so I can test?
Another edit.
I've noticed it only happens when I get an email, which means I get an notification. If I open the app when I get an notification as well it fc's. When I just open is at random it doesn't fc. Very very weird

I have tried it with Knox frozen and not frozen....I'm on a n900w8 rooted with twrp installed. If I do anything to interact with an email notification from my exchange account it freezes the phone for a few seconds then force closes email. If I turn notifications off, and nothing gets displayed in the notification bar then I can use it all normally. And even with stuff being displayed, if I go into the actual program and check the email, it works, even with the notification there, but it doesn't go away and when I go to get rid of it then same thing force close.....what a load of Crap that Samsung puts out something with an issue like this on a phone that is supposed to be "business friendly" ****ing bull****
My problem with email app:
It sends emails just fine it does not receive any email unless i remove the account and add again. there is nothing wrong with my server (using IMAP push from hostgator) and in the K9 client its working flawlessly however i would really like to use the stock app. It wont receive email even if i do a manual refresh i have to remove the whole account and add it again
can anyone help me please??
Ok guys better don't turn off knox for this, we still don't know how it affects the overall system. As I see it it's problem with the samsung push service and the notification subsystem. The push service is upgraded before some days and my version that's working fine is 1.2.2.2

Two things....first, would this cause the notification related issues I have?
Second, I just found that, if I set sync to manual, send myself an email from a Gmail account on my computer, then go into the email app and click refresh to sync, then I get the same problem....email freezes things up fit a few seconds then force closes. I can still Re open email and after I do that then it works fine and I can interact with my nail, it's just those two situations that causes the force close.....don't get it
