[Q] Why does my gmail not sync anymore - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone. I have been a member for a very long time. However i did not post much. The Q and A section often fulfills all my requirenments as well as google helps. Now here is my problem.
For the past two days, my gmail and google contacts and calenders havent been syncing unless i manually sync using the gmail application. It was working perfectly fine previously.
Could it be something to do with the server. I did recently add my gmail account to a android tablet.
Any help / suggestion would help
Best Regards,
Mo'

Go to the gmail app, click on your account
In the settings, there will be an option for data settings, under which there is a tab: gmail sync is on/off
Select it, and chose your sync interval

Push email on stock app?

I want to use the samsung email client since well... i like the widget on the desktop. I don't see an option to PUSH in settings. The quickest I see is to check every 5 minutes. Did I not set up the email correctly or what is it?
I had a push option earlier when I first entered my gmail account info but had to delete it because the push was being random. Having readded the account there isnt a push option any longer.
Help?
maybe this can help you..its for the s3 but should be the same..

Holy crap, talk about thread necromancy. OP is from May 2011.
Does anyone have any news on this subject?
Push email was available on the native S2 email client.
I vote for native apps first.
I tried the advice inside the android forum link, it works (gmail with exchange) but is sucks too much data in stand by.

This thread is in the galaxy s2 forum. Looks like you're a galaxy s3 user?
Yes, but since the op complained of a similar problem on the s2, i thought there is a connection.

Perhaps. But OP is also from nearly 2 years ago.

"Unfortunately, Google calendar sync has stopped."

This is the message I get every time I try to sync my phones calendar with my Google account calendar. No appointments are showing up on my phone. Everything else such as e-mail and contacts sync just fine. What am I missing here?

Try SystemSettings->Apps->Calendar->clear data
If doesn't help - flash to rooted stock and do factory reset.
And you failed to say if u r running Stock ROM or AOKP or CM9/10.
Sorry. Running a stock deodexed rooted Rom on VZW GSIII. I recall I got the same message before I rooted too.

Factory reset on rooted stock ROM did not fix the problem. Any other ideas?
I had a similar issue on my Xoom (and found this thread when I was posting a solution on the Xoom forum).
I wound up deleting my gmail account and setting it up as an enterprise account (called "Corporate" in settings). It now works flawlessly, so I hope it will work on your GSIII.
Here's the link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1794190
Doesn't look llike that's an option on my gsiii.
Hard reset didn't work. I even flashed stock unrooted ROM via Odin. Now pretty much back to the phones original condition.
Still not syncing and getting the same message. So it's either the hardware (didnt think this could be a hardware problem) or a problem with my Google account (then why would email and contacts sync no problem?)
I'm stumped. Should I take the phone to the store?

With kaiten mail (paid) or k9 mail (free), you will get emails like instant messaging

i currently have a modded rom of jelly bean and the system's default mail service works excelent, at least with my hotmail account, they always arrive at the same time (or sometimes even earlier than my hotmail refresh in webpage ,so it generally gets first in my phone). if you dont want to start flashing or changing roms as Jokesy said before, you could you apps. its easier that way.

I've been using this app since 4.0.4 firmware. recently i updated my phone to slimrom 4.2.1 .

[Q] [Help] Gmail stopped syncing after a couple of weeks

Hello guys. I'm currently using a stock rooted 4.2 Galaxy S4. I used to own a china made android phone before this and the same issue happened as well so I'm pretty sure it's not due to the ROM.
My emails from gmail suddenly stopped syncing after a couple of weeks after adding my Google account. This has happened 4 times already and after Googling the problem I couldn't find any solutions. Neither restarting my phone nor clearing the Gmail app data from Application Manager helped. In the account manager it says that everything but email was able to sync successfully (according to the update date). The only solution I have found so far is to completely remove my Google account from the phone and add it again.
I have 2 step verification on my Google account and at first I thought that was the issue; that my authentication token had expired, so I generated an application specific password and used it, however the problem still came back. Really hope someone can help me as it's really frustrating to have to remove and add my account every couple of weeks. Thank you.
Hope someone can help me out..

Sorry yeah this is the attachment.

Factory reset is what comes to mind for me. Just remember to back up your data first. Good luck
