I've searched for an answer but couldn't find one.. my gmail app won't send any emails. It just says "sending" forever. I'm using a rooted vibrant on stock 2.1 rom, with JAC's kernel.
There have been a few people myself included experiencing this sporadically but I haven't seen a fix or a reason why it's doing this just yet.
Sent from my awesome Vibrant using XDA App
I have yet to be able to actually send an email via Gmail on my phone. I can receive them all day long, but the times I try to compose a message, they just say "sending" forever.
Also, I have noticed that when i receive a message and delete it, it doesn't actually delete it from my Gmail. I have to log into the webmail or use my desktop.
I'm running the stock rom, rooted.
I used to have this happen on my g1 frequently, haven't had it happen on my vibrant yet though. Typically when it would happen on my g1, I would go into the google apps and clear all the data. Couldn't just do it on gmail either, had to do the other google apps too for whatever reason, then it would work again.
Good luck, it's pretty annoying.
Try k9. It's a bit slow at times but it's pretty solid. Best email app I've found yet. I use it for msn, live, gmail, yahoo and my company email.
Honestly I'm pretty disappointed in the stock email apps that came with this phone. I think they're kinda garbage. Apparently my Sidekick '08 was better for that, not to mention the lack of IM.

This happened to me yesterday for the first time. I chalked it up to the gmail servers having issues. But as soon as I plugged in the charger the emails went out. Maybe if battery is low it won't send email? It didn't tell me it wasn't going to send them, it just didn't send them.
I find that I have to go to gmail and manually send each one from the outbox, they still say sending but they actually do send after doing that, because the recepient always says they get it.
So for example, if you send a pic from gallery, make sure you go to gmail after, go to the outbox then click on the mesage and then click send.
* To get to outbox go to gmail then click menu > labels
Sucks but works till we get froyo yo
i'm on a Samsung captivate running the leaked jh3 firmware. It's rooted and running SuperRooter and circle clock.
I noticed that after reflashing to the stock jh3 gmail would send
After installing superrooter gmail would send
After installing circle clock gmail would send
But after I backed up apps with titanium backup it stopped working. I think TiBU is causing an issue for me.
Anyone else have TiBU in your problems some how?
Update: Got it working
I did this:
Settings>Applications>Manage Applications, home button then filter, select all. Next Select gmail, clear data and clear cache. Then do the same with gmail storage.
Now it works!

This fixed it for me as well. I am unsure of what caused it to not work in the first place, though.
nice, clearing cache/data worked for me. i was gonna reflash my phone to stock and start from scratch. this saved me a ton of time. +1

my gmail is having the same issue as here, has anyone found a better solution to the problem then clearing the data as that deletes the currently stuck sending gmails.....
also I cant do the process above if its in a conversation, does anyone know how to open a sending gmail when it has all the other responses attached to the top of it??? that process onnly works for individually sent mails, not "replied" mails that bring other messages with it into the outbox.
anyone know how to detach it from the others or even open the data files to remove text using some sort of tool???
bump for some possible resolutions to force the message to send and or view the message to copy text...m even a wayto view data from it so clearing data wontclear message tryingto be sent???
please got a long, important email i need sent...
Seriously doubt this is just a Vibrant issue as it would happen A LOT to me with my MT3G. So far, knock on wood, it hasn't happened with the Vibrant.
I have the captivate running cog2.2 and deleting the cache under "manage applications" worked for me. I was going crazy! Thanks for the help!
I have Titanium Backup and actually had to restore my ROM with ROM Manager and a couple of apps from Titanium Backup and developed this problem. Clearing data and cache under the Gmail App and Storage + Reboot fixed the problem.
Danger
I too have been having issues with emails (and now SMS?) messages stuck in "sending..." mode. I had several emails from a month ago that I just now noticed didn't send, so I backed up gmail, cleared data, restored the emails and tried to send them individually. On the plus side, my emails did send.
On the minus side, some of them had pictures and my phone took the liberty of sending the wrong pictures from my camera (I was "sharing" pictures from the camera app). So to be safe, just delete the emails!
Dangerzone!
bee tee dubs, I'm using Axura 2.2.9.0
Hi, i was used to using MyBackupPro and later TitaniumBackup for SMS backup on my previous android phone.
Now i have tried MybackupPro, TitaniumBackup, SMS Backup+ and all 3 does not work on Optimus!!!
When i open message app after restore it simply stays black with SMS backup and MyBackuPro, it owers my force close or w8, i have w8ed a long time it stays black..
With Titanium backup it opens normaly and even shows the number of messages per thread, but when i open it is empy, but i gues this is not working couse of restoring SMSes from 2.2.1 app to 2.2app on Optimus.
Could it be an issue with 3000SMSes at once backed up? But it worked for me on Milestone...
What else can i try OMG.
I hate google doesnt provide claud backup for SMS, same as it does for contacs/calendar/..
Edit:
Lol it worked a minute after i posted this thread. Lol it took almost an hour of black screen for app to start, now works perfectly! SMS Backup+ works perfect, does what google should do himself, i can read SMS in Gmail now
I have had the atrix for about two weeks now and love the phone, I havent had any problems with using handcent or any other third part messaging apps until a few days ago. All of a sudden messages that I previously deleted are coming back into my threads and in my currents conversations the phone is deleting tons of messasges. I removed handcent and even the stock messager is doing the same thing. I hace the text limit per conversation set at 1000 and I looked into every second I could think of and just have run out of ideas. Please help because this is extremely frustrating!
if you have multiple text messaging apps installed on your phone try uninstalling all of them and see if the issue disappears. i am thinking that it might be a conflict between different 3rd party apps.
as a worst case scenario i would try a factory reset (which would delete all info and apps) and start again. there is a sms backup app in the market so you can backup everything first and restore after the reset
thank you I am going to try and delete all third party apps for a day or so then re install and if that doesnt work do the factory reset and just install one texting app.
Is there a way to do this? I've tried TiBu to no avail. A bit of a noob when it comes to Android.
*edit* If it is possible to xfer texts from GB to ICS, is it also possible to merge sms/mms that are already on my gs3?
**edit** I tooled around with the AT&T Messages app for a bit and decided it wasn't for me. Is there a way to merge the sms from the AT&T Messages app with the stock messaging app with sms backup?

I've been using SMS Backup+ for quite a long time. I have it set to automatically backup up my SMS, MMS, and Call log every 2 hours to labeled folders in my Gmail account. You can also restore after flashing a new ROM (or getting a new phone), and it'll MERGE instead of overwrite.
New version of titanium backup pro has it now.

Good to know, the google play page for this app says it doesn't restore MMS.
"Automatically backup SMS, MMS and call log entries using a separate label in Gmail / Google Calendar. It is also possible to restore SMS and call log entries back to the phone (MMS not supported yet)."
So I've always stayed away from it.

True, it still doesn't restore MMS, but I almost never view old MMS pics on my phone. If you really need to, though, you can always view them in your gmail account instead.
Thanks for the replies fellas. I guess there is no straight solution to transfer sms and mms from GB to ICS.
I remember gosms had this really cool backup and restore feature from sd card back when i used to use it, maybe give that a shot? :good:
Zmore is the man. Worked like a charm. Hopefully SMS Backup + adds MMS support soon.
I got my new Nexus 5, and I have been loving the new Hangouts with SMS, but a problem popped up today. Normally when you are on the screen where you can see all the message threads, in the top left you can see your email account and click it to change your Google account, and when you click a thread, that changes to your friends name and you can click that to switch between texts and hangout messages. Perfect, right?
Well mine stopped working like that today. On the thread page, I still see my email addresses to change between, but clicking on a thread no longer changes that to my friends name. It just stays on my email addresses. This makes switching between SMS and hangouts very hard. And it is now IMPOSSIBLE to start a new conversation with SMS without using the entirely different Contacts app.
Here's where things get really weird. I had an older Titanium backup of Hangouts from a few days ago I restored to. Didn't fix it, same problem. Uninstalled it through titanium backup, reinstalled it from the app store, same problem.
The only way to fix it is to do a full recovery restore to a ROM backup I made a few days ago. But this only fixes it for an hour or so, then it goes right back to being broken. The only thing I can think of is maybe Google services is being updated in the background and somehow breaking it, but this should break it for everyone.
Any help here?
I figured it out. Every time i would change the dpi to 360 this would happen. If it's on 370 or 380 it works fine.
