2 weeks ago I flashed PA 3.6 on my N4. after a day or so i noticed that i was not receiving any incoming emails on a Hotmail or exchange account. BUT if i went into the email account and manually hit the "sync" button emails would populate. I was previously on a PA 3.XX Rom and had no issue.
I installed the new rom, wiped cache, installed Gapps update, Fix and still nothing. The only new app i installed was Swipe, i uninstalled that, cleared email app cache and still nothing unless i manually sync. I then moved up to PA 3.65 yesterday and the same issue. So i decided to delete all the email accounts and re-create them. Now it lets me create an account and verified the credentials on the accounts but never completes a "sync" and seems to be stuck in a constant loop.
This is on wifi or the network. Anyone have similar issues? i have found no posts regarding this. Worst case i could just do a factory reset and try that if i have to.
Thanks!
I get this all the time with new ROMs. The last ROM that acted up was MakoColors, before that was MIUI, then PA before that. It must just take time, because my Nandroid backups (I rotate between PA and MIUI every week or so; I love them) seem to be working. I encounter it every single time I try a new ROM, then it just magically fixes itself after a few days. I don't understand it either, OP. I have a Gmail and a Hotmail account; the Hotmail account is the only one that has problems (makes sense that the Gmail one wouldn't act up). I have no idea how to fix it though. It's quite annoying.
I wish that was the case. I had 3.6 installed for about 9 days and it was still the same story. I've tried to change from push to a different interval and back to push and same outcome.
Ok, I gotta bump this thread because I'm now getting this problem with the 4.3 leak. My email refuses to sync no matter what I do. It's a Hotmail account. Anyone know what could be the cause? Stuck on the sync screen with no emails or anything on my phone.

I fixed my issue by doing a factory wipe. nothing else worked no matter how many times I flashed.
let it in peace, it will sync. this is not a problem with a rom, not pa or miui or whatever you flash - it just takes times. i recently bought my mom a macbook air, it took one hour until her mails were there, when i set up one of my android device i just put them away to allow them to get sync their stuff. i noticed especially in the legacy mail app this can take quite long but you can be certain there is no difference between stock android and PA in that regard.
I flashed pa 3.65 and it worked, I just had to start clean. dirty flash was producing the same result every Rom I flashed.
I had this happen to my Nexus 7. For about a month. No play store. It linked fine, I could go into the play store on the N7, just couldn't install from the browser. A little inconvenience, but no biggy. Today I wanted to squash it. lol.
What I did was clear data and uninstall updates from settings-apps-all. Then opened up the play store and saw it was the old version of play, which was fine. Exited out and went back into the play store. I got a message that I needed to enable or download the play services app from the play store, which is weird because I already have it. So what I did there was clear all data in that app and sign into the play services app. Again, exited out and went back into the play store. Play updated automagically, but I still couldn't see the N7 listed under my devices in my browser. I let it go for about an hour because I got busy at work. Decided that if it didn't show up by the end of the day, I would factory reset and redo everything. So I began my titanium backup.
Before that, I let TB and went into the market update helper to attach the apps again to the market. Then I started my apps and data backup just in case I needed to do a factory reset.
About a hour later, I see the N7 back under my settings.

This is odd. The phone has been working without a glitch and all of a sudden I tried to open an email and got a FC error. I can see the list of emails but cant open any of them. It still syncs ans shows new incoming emails but I cant open them. I deleted the couple apps that I recently installed, restarted, wiped out the exchange account, reset the account and still getting the same error.
any help? Its not rooted if that matters.
Bump.... I've emailed HTC as well and no solution still. If it is any indication, it is the com.android.email process that locks up each time.
not that anyone seemed to care, a hard reset did resolve the issue once setup again. hopefully it just doesn't start doing it again.
This also started today for me, rebooting didn't do anything, and I would rather not reset everything. Deleting the account and creating it did not work.
post up if you figure anything out. Mine is still working fine since the hard reset but I really dont want to have to do that every week.
Try doing this to rest your email app only:
Settings-Applications-Manage Apps-email-clear date, clear cache
That is your best bet to avoid having to do a full factory reset.
As well, you can also check out TouchDown by Dataviz. Amazing exchange email client! You can get a free 5 day full demo before you buy it. Well worth the money, IMHO.
for some reason since yesterday i cannot add more google accounts to my epic4g?? i stalls for a few minutes then i get "cant establish a reliable data connection to the server. i tried using wifi instead of the internet on my phone, i get the same issue..then i restarted my phone a few times...still the same problems even until today. i had already 4 gmail accounts synced, so i thought i had maxed out...i deleted 1 and tried to readd a new one, same issue...whats worst was i couldnt even get my old one back in there now! anyone having the same issues lately? thanks
I had same issue. Only I had one google and one google account synced through exchange. When I swapped it to a google. Yes first deleting it then re-adding. I got this issue. To make things worse I lost the ability to install apps from market. It took 3 hard resets to then allow me to add 1 google account. After installing all apps I wanted I went ahead and added the other account but not as a google instead as exchange again. Wasn't worth the headache again. No idea why something so simple has become so complex.

Hi. I’m having a problem with my Nexus 7 fetching notifications, and I’m hoping someone might be able to solve the issue... without having to do a reinstall. I may have inadvertently caused the issue myself, but have no idea how and don’t know how to fix it.
To give you some background, I was using my N7 rooted with stock ROM all through 4.2.1, and life was fine. My problems arose when 4.2.2 was released OTA. For some odd reason, the update would download, the tablet would tell me so, but when I would try to install it, the bootloader would lock up in an error. Rebooting and going into settings to force a search for the update would return an “up to date” message even though I was still on 4.2.1. 2-3 days later, the icon would return to tell me that the update was downloaded, but attempting to install would only result in an error.
I finally decided to unroot and relock the device to install the update. Directly after, I rerooted it. Of course, one of the main reasons I keep root is to use a backup service, and I ran Titanium to reload my apps and settings. A while after, I noticed that my phone would ring to notify me of incoming texts, Facebook updates, emails and such, but my tab, which I often looked forward to mildly annoying me with an echoing chime, would not. Once I log in to an app, it will then suddenly deliver me whatever notifications have been awaiting, but that kind of defeats the purpose. I’ve also noticed that the WiFi icon, which was normally blue 95% of the time is not consistently gray. It NEVER turns blue any more. I’m not quite sure what that means, but I’m almost certain it is somehow related.
In doing some research to fix the problem, I discovered an app that adjusts how often it pings for notifications. I was hoping that, somewhere in the midst of the update and my reinstalling old data, I’d deleted or overwritten this “Heartbeat”, and that the app would fix it, but it sadly has not.
Anyone have any idea what I’ve done and how to solve this problem?

Might be a problem with your account configured on the Nexus. I had a similar problem when I was playing around with framework-res.apk One time I didn't put the right signature and so my account was only 'half' stable, I.e. the account was there, but no syncing. I found out when starting the play store, there I was asked for my account ...
After inserting and reconfiguring mail / calendar / ... everything works fine now.

I tried deleting the data from the Google Play Store and Google Play Services apps. Had done the same with Google Voice earlier. Nothing changed. What do I need to do to "put the right signature"?
I've been on android for many years, and know my way around for sure. I've been running the CM10.1 nightlies with the faux123 kernel for quite a while and everything was working well. Suddenly in the last few days, Gmail sync stopped working. The odd thing is that Exchange emails are getting pushed, Chrome to phone works, calendar, browsing etc. all work. Gmail will eventually sync, but I need to open the Gmail application app and force a sync.
Here is what I've already tried
- Disable and enable gmail sync
- Clear cache
- Clear data
- Installed stock 4.2.2 ROM (bigxies)
- Reinstalled CM10.1 after a factory reset
- Installed stock again
- Reinstalled new baseband and radio
I'm now running stock 4.2.2 and still can't get Gmail sync to work. Can anyone offer any advice?
When reinstalling/changing ROMs are you restoring account system data with TitaniumBackup? I had one account not syncing for like a month across three different ROMs. Had to just delete and add all my accounts again to fix it.
You haven't tried removing and re-adding your Google account?

No, only restoring apps + app data. I never back up system data.

Yes, I did this first (forgot it in my list), and did this when I did a factory reset with stock ROM twice as well.
This happened to me whenever I tried restoring Gmail app+data from Ti Backup. Whenever I wipe, I have to uninstall Gmail and redownload from Google Play.
It was odd. I finally got it working but turning off Gmail sync for 24 hours, and then back on. It was the oddest thing, but I guess it fixed itself.
Sometime within the last week, I noticed that I stopped receiving email notifications on my phone. I can still retrieve email manually (both through Inbox and the Gmail app), but unless I open the app it won't refresh. I've tried messing with the notification settings - none of which were turned off or disabled - and I've even removed and re-added my Google accounts. No effect!
I'm not sure what else I should be trying, or why this would even be occurring. I haven't noticed any other apps giving me the same issues; for instance, Facebook and my Twitter client (Fenix) both continue to push notifications just fine. Any advice on what I could try next? Thanks in advance!
Have you wiped data of Google play services by any chance? That will cause this every time without fail.
It should sort itself out eventually, I found a good article describing what happens when Google play services data is wiped and it causes mayhem with syncing your Google account.

I know I have before, but I don't think it was recently. That's really good to know now! I'm contemplating just doing a full wipe because all these tiny problems are starting to get at me. Removing your Google account plays havoc with apps now.
I used to have this same issue when I used Inbox on my last device and never really came across any fix while searching for answers. Never had it happen with Gmail, so that's odd you're having that same issue. Only thing I can recommend is trying another email app. I use BlueMail now and have no issues with not getting notifications.
With app issues, specially with Google Apps, I recommend rebooting to Safe Mode and testing the app.
1. Hold Power Button until Power Off shows.
2. Hold Power Off until "Reboot to Safe Mode" appears.
3. Click "Reboot to Safe Mode".
4. See if the issue persists.
Check the sync
Also, check if you jave restricted the background data at the data usage
I checked everything you guys recommended, nothing seemed to help. In a rage I factory reset the phone, and everything is peachy now. Instant emails galore. No idea what that implicates as the cause.

I think that the April factory image definitely has issues. Mine was battery problems, but all is fine after flashing Mays image. There was a sync issue with all Gmail users for a while but that seems to be fixed now as well.
