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..
Is sync turned on?

I don't see any attachment. Did you try a factory data reset?

Sorry yeah this is the attachment.
Have yet to try a factory reset...
Factory reset is what comes to mind for me. Just remember to back up your data first. Good luck

I updated to the new Market today and now when I try to launch it I get a message that I need to login to Google first. Please excuse the brain fart but I can't figure out how to login to Google. I mean I am already logged in o Google as demonstrated by my being able to view my Google mail. I even went to the Google webpage and logged in there.
Any suggestions?
TIA

Clear data and clear cache did not work
EDIT: Clear updates did the trick. Those having a similar problem should try this. Please give me a thanks if it works for you.
EDIT2: Installing the new Market a second time worked. This new Market looks weird. Jut a matter of a newlearning curve.
Thanks!
Yeah looks like a google thing because mibe is also down and I've done everything I can think of except restoring my phone.

Hi, I have a galaxy s2. I tried to send compressed videos via email. Problem is they were still too large and now gmail app isn't working properly.
I have done some searching and it looks like my wifi is still trying to send the vids. There are a lot as I tried different compression methods and then resending. I have since deleted the emails which were all 'sending' but still have the problem.
Is there a way for me to get things back to normal? I can't delete the account without deleting all my phones user data as well and I would really like to avoid doing this if possible. Thanks for the help.

Have you tried rebooting? Or killing Email from an advanced task manager?
Hi, thanks for replying. Yep tried, still hangs. :-(
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA
Maybe try to clear the Gmail data/cache in settings / applications / manage. .. / all
This will wipe all data and you'll have to setup the app again though.
You could also log in on the web and try delete the E-mail in the outbox .

Hi, thanks for the help. Turns out what was needed was a clear out of my out box, there was a draft of the files I mentioned in there and about 5 hours of leaving gmail alone. Everything started syncing properly after that. :-D

I recently bought a vibrant from a friend of mine as a spare phone and I rooted it. The wife grabbed the vibrant and used it one day. she was messing around with the ROM toolbox app and then it started force closing. I don't know what she did but every 30 seconds or so it gives a prompt that says, "process Android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly". does anyone know what this means, or what I can do to fix it?

As i remember it, it had something to do with contacts sync error. Go to all apps and force stop google framework services and then force stop contacts, gmail and clear data. Do it a couple of times. Reboot and let everything sync again and hopefully it should be ok.

It has something to do with the contacts synching from what i recall.
1. Uninstall the facebook app if you have it installed.
2. Go to app manager: settings>applications>all>contacts storage>clear data
After this you can install the facebook app if it was installed.
I tried both solutions. Its still doing it, just not as often.

You might Also want to clear data from contacts storage after clearing contacts data. It will probably delete all your contacts, sms and call logs so backup etc.
I did a factory reset and force stopped/cleared data on anything that had to do with syncing contacts. I thinks its fixed! I'll post later to make sue though. I don't want to speak too soon. Thanx guys! Your help is greatly appreciated!

What rom are you using? Try a no wipe reflash
I didn't even think of flashing a rom. I flashed an ics rom and now it works fine. I'd still like to have a stock vibrant rom on hand just for the heck of it though. I really appreciate everyone's help on this. If anybody knows where I could find a stock t959 from let me know.

if you're on ics now and you want a stock rom you should odin first...you will be on stock 2.1...after that you can use kies mini to update your phone to the latest samsung official firmware which is 2.2
Err never ever use kies under any circumstance. Its a recipe for a brick. Read the sticky in this forum. Plenty of links for roms.

When my phone was doing this, it was not a contacts synch error, but a Calendar synch error. I had to clear my calendar data, export my Google calendar and re-import it, and re-do my Google account login in order to get it to stop. From my investigation, it could be any of the Google synch services.
Do a Google search for the error and one of the first responses will be an XDA thread about how to fix the error.
Thanx, I'm gonna try this tonite.

I'm having a weird issue that I can't quite figure out the cause of. I have my Sprint S3 rooted and have flashed the Blazer ROM 1.6 on it. I haven't had any issues that I know of until now. I have my work email, which is run on a Microsoft Exchange Server, hooked up to my phone. I get notifications fine, emails, invites, etc. However, randomly, emails will not show up in their entirety. It will show 5 or 6 lines of the email and then nothing else. If I forward the email to another account, like my gmail account, the entire email is there.
Has anyone else seen this issue? I have tried searching and can't find anyone else with the issue. I thought at first it was my particular phone, but I returned it and got another S3 and the same thing happens.
Right now I have it back to stock, still rooted, and I'm not seeing the issue. That's what's making me think it might have to do with the Blazer ROM.
Hopefully someone else has come across this issue.
Should be in the Blazer thread not General......
You might try a full wipe and reflash. I have not heard reports of truncated messages.

OK. Sorry about that. I'll repost it there. And I have tried wiping and reflashing. And it's happened to me on both phones that I have had in the past week, which seems weird. I'll get this post moved. Thanks.

Man, it's so odd. I have the email size set to All. And it's not on every email. It's only every now and then. I'm going to try another email app and see if it still happens.

Well, I downloaded Maildroid and am extremely happy with it so far. So long as I don't have problems with it, I think this is going to be my email client of choice. Thanks for the suggestion! :good:

I'm glade you like it as I have been using it for quite sometime now. I like that you can back it up in TB and take it with you from rom to rom. Plus you don't have to lock down your phone, just lock the email application itself.

What exactly do you mean by not having to lock down your phone, just lock the email application itself? You mean securing it so no one can get into your email?

Yes you can just lock the email application itself. And not have to have your phone screen lock

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:

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?
