Hey now.
I've noticed that when I read/delete an email from my gmail app, it doesn't seem to sync with the web server. I can log into gmail on my PC and see that the emails are still "new".
Incoming emails sync fine, but the issue is with deleting emails an marking them as read.
Anyone else having these problems?
Thanks!
I have this problem again lot. Sometimes it deletes but not always. You could clearing cache and data and go under settings-labels and sync all.

I'm using the Gmail app on my phone. However, when i look at an email on my phone and delete it, once i go on my computer and look at my email either through my windows live app or the gmail website, it will still show that it was unread. same thing if i were to look on the computer and then check on my phone. I have already tried going into the app and clearing the data/cache and force closing it. i need to set up the gmail to pop forwarding because i also use windows live on my desktop so i dont always have to goto the gmail website. how do i sync both my phone and gmail so when i delete a mail from my phone, it will delete it from the server? i tried going to the gmail app > more > settings, but dont see any option for that...?
how long have u waited until u checked your gmail inbox?
maybe u have to wait a little bit longer, f.e. 5 minutes
Go to settings, applications, manage applications, gmail, clear data. This does a reset of gmail and reloads all of your emails. It also clears up any sync issues. When you launch gmail again you will see all your messages being pulled down from the server.
Has happened to me a few times and this always does the trick.
as stated in my original post, i have already tried clearing my cache and it didn't help much. just to clear things up, when i look at a mail in my gmail app from my phone and delete the message. i will see it delete in mail.google.com. however, if i were to go into my windows live mail app on my desktop, it will still show that it has been unread and it is still there. same thing goes with if i were to check a new mail in my windows live mail desktop app, and then check my gmail app on my phone later on, it will show a new mail that i haven't read yet, when i have already read it in my desktop app. so basically i'm having troubles with my windows live mail app syncing with my gmail app on my phone. however, the mail.google.com website seems to be syncing fine with my phone.

Not cache. Data.
i tried deleting only data also. still the same issue. if i were to delete a mail on my phone, and then later on check my windows live mail app on my desktop, it will still appear unread...?
Not sure if it affects your issue, but are you configured as IMAP or POP3 in the settings of gmail online?

i have both POP3 and IMAP enabled in my gmail settings. POP3 is enabled because i use "windows live mail" on my desktop, so i don't always have to log into the gmail website. and regarding IMAP, it has always been enabled in my settings...
So your windows live account isn't syncing with your Gmail account, your Gmail messages are just forwarding to windows live and leaving copies of the messages on the Gmail server. I don't think it's possible to truly sync Gmail and windows live/Hotmail. You could do it the other way around and set your Gmail account to fetch mail from windows live and set it to not leave a copies on the windows server. Other option is to use k9 and set up 2 accounts, I've found it fiddly to get the syncing right on it though!

Hi there, everyone! Facing a strange problem lately. I've noticed that emails are not being sent when I use the Gmail 2.3.5 app to send them. That app does not show any confirmation after pressing the SEND button, other than "sending message", whether the email has been sent or not does not get confirmed. There is no OUTBOX to be viewed in the Gmail 2.3.5 app.
However, the email IS being sent when they are sent using the same gmail account but via the SOCIAL HUB. When I composed and sent the email via the Social Hub, it first shows in the Outbox of the EMAIL app, and then from there it is being delivered after a delay of few minutes.
I also tested sending the same email from the same gmail account using the EMAIL app, but that shows in the OUTBOX, but is still not delivered. So to cut the long story short. There are three applications which can be used for sending an email from a gmail account, and only one of those applications is working.
1. The GMAIL 2.3.5 app is NOT WORKING for sending an email.
2. The EMAIL app is showing the message in the OUTBOX, but the message is still not sent.
3. The Social Hub is the only app which WORKED for sending an email.
Do you all confirm my findings? If yes, then why is it that only the Social Hub is working for sending out an email from the Gmail account???
Now if you go to gmail.com on a pc, do you see your email in the outbox section? If not, then your Gmail app seems clogged up .
Go into settings > applications. Click the 'all-tab' and scroll to gmail. Select it and choose to delete the application data. Not the app itself of course. This requires you to add your google account back into the app. Could solve your problem.

Hi Prodygee, thanks for your reply. I did exactly like you said and clicked on "Clear Data".....I guess that's what u meant by deleting the application data. It worked like a charm! Thanks
Now I can send an email via the social hub AND via the Gmail app AND also via the Email app. All new sent messages are getting delivered. But one old message is still showing as pending in the Outbox (of the phone). Any tips on why that one is not getting sent?
And when I open the gmail account on my laptop, it does not have any "Outbox" folder there....it has a "Sent Mail" folder and a "drafts" folder (which is empty). But I don't think this is relevant now as the problem seems to have been solved with your tip Thanks again.
Me too!
Just want to add my own experience of not being able to send gmail from my phone.
I have gmail 2.3.5.2 running on a stock SGS2 with the latest OTA update - XWKI4 android 2.3.4 (not very new, I know)
I noticed gmail sending was broken recently - couldn't send new, or, replied to, emails. There was no error message, it just didn't do anything. If I pressed the back button, it prompted me if I want to quit. All I could do was save it to drafts and later resend it from a PC.
Anyway, reading the above, I went into app management and blew away all the cache and application data of the gmail app. I was worried about the latter thinking it might delete my entire gmail archive. Worry not - it just deletes it from the phone and later resyncs when you next load gmail.
Anyway, I did this ... and it didn't work
So, I wiped the cache and data from the gmail app again, shutdown the phone, pulled the battery and then using a PC, deleted all my old drafts, [imap]/sent and [imap]Trash. Switched it back on ...
... and it worked!
Hi.I started this thread because i have a problem with the social hub on my phone. It simply doesn't want to work/sync my e-mail accounts when the premium account is selected.It gives me an error: <<data error:an error occured while sending data.please try again(104)>>.This happens again and again only when premium account is selected.I have tried both on yahoo and gmail accounts.Please help.
Same happens to me, only for gmail. Would live to find a fix for this.

Didn't see this thread when i searched for similar discussions, i opened up another one explaining my problem. Are you experiencing the same issue ? What is your firmware, jokertt ? Seeing we both live in Romania maybe there's a problem with the firmware we are using, even though it worked fine for me until the last few days and i didn't install any app that could mess my internet or mail apps. Also problem appears both on wi-fi or phone data.

Could the problem be with syncing your gmail account, as the gmail app is already pushing this account?
I have gmail app syncing my gmail account, enhanced email (but the stock email app does work, but only goes back a month) for 2 yahoo IMAP accounts. The only thing I have on the Social Hub app is a Twitter account (because the actual Twitter app caused connection problems).
Was wondering if there is a way to manually sync contacts to facebook accounts using a rom such as PUR3AO5PTH3ORY?
When I download the Facebook android app the only contacts that I can get to sync are the ones who have their mobile numbers listed on facebook. Was able to sync without a problem when using facebook for HTC sense.
Any help would be appreciated!
So the issue is you're not getting everyone to sync?
You may need to change the sync parameters to "include all" or "sync with existing contacts".

Have tried both options... The only facebook accounts I can get to sync with my phone are people who have their mobile numbers on their facebook profile. Can't seem to be able to manually link the accounts like with the HTC App...
I'm having problems with the gmail account I have attached to the HTC Mail app. My regular gmail app ( connected to another account) Works perfectly fine. It has synced before but it seems intermitant and I know I have four messages in my inbox and It will not sync no matter what I try. Just wondering if theres a known issue with the HTC app.

I have had the same issues on stock GB and CleanROM ICS 4.3 - no matter what ROM I use, HTC/Sense mail stops syncing.
I've moved on to K9 mail. Works perfectly.

Why do you have the Gmail set up there? You can add a second Gmail account to the actual Gmail application. That might be more reliable for you.
I'm using an Exchange account with the HTC Mail app and haven't had any syncing issues at all.
You can try clearing the application data in Settings and setting it up again, if you prefer the HTC app.

I believe that setting up GMail in the HTC mail app is part of the set up process. I am not sure you can actually avoid it, although I have never tried. Also, the UI for the mail app is nicer in some respects than the GMail app.
Exchange does work well, but there are definitely issues with webmail and the mail app.
In the past, I tried clearing data for the for gmail on the mail app, and I think HTC mail won't allow it since gmail has to be a primary account.
Having gone through all this is what made me suggest the K-9 mail app. Just turn off notifications for the other gmail mail accounts.

You can definitely skip setting up GMail in the HTC app. Just skip the entire setup and then sign in to the Gmail app directly. But I know what you mean, the HTC app has some aesthetics I enjoy more than the GMail app.
And you should be able to clear the data on that HTC app. It's totally independent of the Gmail app. At least, I've never had an issue with clearing data from it and it didn't affect Gmail in anyway.
Hopefully the OP can chime in on the results.

Yes, it's a known bug. The Android Task killer, kills off the HTC Mail app after a while. It was listed as a fix in the changelog for the January OTA update. It seemed to get a lot better, but its still not perfect.
I also agree, you should just use GMail app for all your GMail accounts. It's push so no random checking.
Also, I believe the Task killer is overly aggressive in general. After my phone has been running for about a day or so, my Facebook widget stops updating. I have to reboot the phone, then it starts updating for a day or so then stops again. Same with my HTC Mail app that checks my personal mail account via POP.
