SOLVED
Posted about this in the CM9 thread, but haven't gotten any help there yet. Basically every time I attempt to download any attachment in gmail (pictures, apk, etc), it shows that it's downloading and reaches 100% completion in gmail, but then does nothing. There is nothing in the downloads app. I have to use a browser to get these files, which is annoying, so any help would be much appreciated. Gmail version is 4.0.3 and I've tried clearing data.
Edit: I found a themed apk and deleted system app, reinstalled as normal app, works fine now.

Ok I have read that Gmail is not a very stable app, and people often complain it crashes, but there's a limit!
I had it installed by default, then removed it after root, then decided to install it again as I needed to check my mail more often.
Every time, every damn time I do ANYTHING, Gmail crashes. You probably know the usual message "com.google.android.gm stopped unexpectedly", I get it when I boot the phone, when I enable data, when I disable data, when I open the browser, when I close the browser, when I enable google account sync, when I disable it, and of course when I try and open Gmail. The fact is, the process crashes even when I don't use Gmail (I checked and it's not in the 'being used' processes list, but when I open the browser or enable data it crashes from nowhere).
I have already tried wiping cache and data, uninstalling updates (but for some reason it uninstalls the whole app), and uninstalling/reinstalling it several times, but I only managed to make it work ONCE (then after that unique mail sent, crashes again). Is there a way to stop this madness?
I have an Xperia Mini st15i with rooted 2.3.4 and stock stuff, if it can help.
Did you take a backup of the stock Gmail app before you removed it? Did you install that one and then updated or did you install directly from the market?
In addition, have you tried clearing the data of Google Services Framework? I read somewhere that clearing its data can help resolve issues in Google apps.
I don't have a backup of the stock one, I reinstalled directly from market =(. I'll try clearing that data then =)
Don't worry if you don't have the stock Gmail.apk. If clearing the services framework doesn't work, search Google for the stock Gmail.apk of your android version, install it, then convert it to system app and link it to the market using titanium backup and then update it. If you can't find it, contact me. Post how it goes.

Hello,
I have a strange problem after my update to 4.1 in my browser. After the update the freeze problem in my browser was gone, unfortunatelly I saw, that it had some problems while loading pictures. Therefore I cleared the cache and all data - as told in this forum to solve the freeze problem (in combination with a cold boot).
After that, all bookmars were deleted (as expected), unfortunately now I have no possibility to get acces to my bookmarks on google. It shows only the section - Local -. Even Saving new bookmarks I can only choose to save them -Local-.
Next step was looking at the Settings for sync - strangely there was no option for syncing the bookmarks. I have the usual contact, calendar, Pisca, mail and so on... but no possibility to sync the bookmarks.
On my Galaxy everything works fine.
When I delete the cahce and all data again, the browser shows a short messsage that it connects to the bookmarks on google (with my account) for about 3-5 seconds- but it does not work.
Does anyone has any idea what to to?
Thank you very much in advance. If there is already a topic regarding this problem, I am sorry, I could not find it.
Regards, Sebastian

Doesn't work on my Galaxy Nexus too. I believe Google drop that feature, since the JB official browser is Chrome, and Chrome sync is working fine.
I also have a Prime and a Gnex. I'm running Bamf JB rom on Gnex and the stock browser has my bookmarks. But the prime does not, same with no option in the sync settings. Why is this gone?
CMarks from the market will restore this functionality :good:.

When you say JB official browser is chrome, do i have to download it from the play store? I find chrome from Google play slower than the stock browser
Ran into this. It's the Gmail apk from the next Android version (4.2). Entire emails now show and can be zoomed with pinch-to-zoom or double tap-to-zoom. It also has conversation list swiping; you can swipe individual messages from the conversation list left or right to archive, delete, or you can turn the feature off.
Here's the original thread, which includes a video review. Contrary to some of the convoluted instructions in the linked thread, you can just install this like a normal APK. This means you do not have to be rooted. However, I would recommend clearing application data after installing.
Camblue created an inverted version that can be found here..http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=32803575
Installed successfully. Followed the instructions in the link (Uninstall with TiBu> Reboot> Install new Gmail> Reboot), everything works fine. Thanks for the heads up Simba.. it's about time Gmail got these features.
sync
just syncs and syncs... cleared data fixed permissions all the usual
This is awesome! Thanks!

Hello, my Atrix 4G (MB860, Android 2.3.6, 4.5.141.MB860.ATT.en.US) got new problem, currently the biggest (it's really worth than one day on battery working or error updating on 4.5.145 firmware). Phone is unlocked, rooted.
The full error that reads is:
"The application Contacts Storage (process com.motorola.contacts) has stopped unexpectedly Please try again."
Then I get a Force Close.
This error appears after viewing a contact or trying to add a new one. It makes really hard to call on contacts second or third number...
I did some internet searching, and what comes up most often is people having frozen some application (usually Yahoo Mail). I haven't frozen anything before it stopped working.
It all happened today after couple of app updates (Endomondo Sports Tracker, Evernote, Hex Editor, Lan plugin for Total Commander, Skype, Smart Compass, Speedtest, Winamp, Yandex Navigator, Lookout Security), Lookout Security is already uninstalled.
More internet searching led me to an answer that seems to help most people: replacing the files in /system/app:
blur_yahoo.apk
blur_yahoo.odex
YahooContacts.apk
YahooContacts.odex
Mine weren't missing, but I went ahead and got the Linux 2.3.6 versions of those files, copied them over, changed the permissions to 644 and the owner/group to root, power booted (battery out), and no good.
Another suggestion was renaming the two BlurContactsSync files to *.bak. Did that, then reboot... no change.
Also tried to use "ExDialer & Contacts" it's getting the same error when adding contact but gives ability to view contact.
The last thing I did was a complete restore of all apps and data with Titanium from a backup back when I know contacts was working. Reboot. No fix.
I'm now at a complete loss. Any more suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!
Thanks!
Go into cwm and fix permissions, then clear cache and reboot. Once rom booted, go to settings and clear contacts app's data. That worked for me, althrough i lost all contacts, i synced them again

Problem in Endomondo
I too got the same error message as you, and also like you I have Endomondo. But I have Android version 2.3.5 and it is NOT rooted, just out of the box operating system settings.
I tried clearing the data first for Endomondo under "Manage Apps" but that didn't help. Then I uninstalled it and cycled power on the phone and when it came back up I could look at the contacts. Yey!:laugh:
Let me know if this helps.
I've had the Eragon 4.8 running for some time on my P9000 but I wasn't getting Facebook messenger messages coming through without opening either messenger or Facebook. I thought I would install the Nougat Rom and see if that fixed the issue (last Friday).
Things were the same, and now over the last few days I've gradually lost all the rest of my push notifications, no WhatsApp unless I open the app, Exchange emails very slow to register, nothing from Facebook, and now even texts are not always arriving.
Gmail stopped this morning, so I uninstalled and reinstalled it, which seems to have fixed Gmail. Have tried with the other apps to no success.
I've variously cleared the app cache, and data. Cleared the phone cache (via TWRP), and tinkered with app settings, and not managed to fix it. Any ideas??
Thanks
