Email app crashes on opening a new mail - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
I'm on GT-I9100_WanamLite.XWLP8.V11.1.NO-WIPE ROM.
I setup the accounts in the email app and can receive emails with no problem.
However, everytime I open a new email the app crashes. When I restart the app and go back to the same email (which is now marked as read), it opens with no problems.
This happens with every new email.
Do you think it's an issue with the ROM or the Email app itself?

clear data in email app and reboot and set ur email account again.

Hi
I've just tried that, cleared the data, rebooted the phone and recreatd the account.
Howver, the problems still persists.
When I open a new email , Email hangs and then get the "Unfortunately Email has stopped."
When I ok that and restart Email, the email is marked as read and can then open it.
Strange!
Any other ideas?

GMAIL only deleting off phone and not computer? how do i set up to delete both?

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!

Emails NOT BEING SENT from Gmail 2.35 app

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!

Using stock email app issue

I started using the stock email app that came with this phone as a bit of a change from the Gmail email app.
I don't sync my data automatically but instead use an app called Synker from the Play Store which only grabs my email when I hit the widget on my homescreen.
Anyways, Synker does not grab my mail using the stock email. I can only get my mail if I physically go into email and synch.
Anyone help?

[Q] Email Notification Not Disappearing After Read

This has been frustrating me for months. I have ActiveSync through work for my corporate email. When I get a new email, I get notified immediately so no problem there. When I read it in Outlook, the notification on my phone stays active as I have a new email. Basically is still says I haven't read the email. It only gets marked as read if I open the email app. The Gmail app doesn't do this. I have tried Touchdown as well and same thing happens.
Any suggestions or thoughts?

Email native app keeps disconnecting from Gmail account

Hi,. I'm on the mate 10 pro US variant and this keeps happening several times a day, I receive a pop-up message telling me that mail is not being retrieved untill I go in and verify by entering email ID and password, any chance this can be fixed? Thanks
Sent from my BLA-A09 using Tapatalk
I have the European version and this has been happening to me. I think it's because of two step verification and needing Gmail to use an app password instead of just your normal gmail login. It used to allow you to login manually and add the app password instead of doing it via an automated process to verify your Gmail account. I can still manually login for yahoo but not Gmail. I've stopped using it for the time being because of this.
It happened to me as well, you need to go to Google settings in browser and allow less secure apps like the email app to function.
