Gmail push taking upto 15 minutes - Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there something wrong with my set up or is anyone else experiencing email coming upto 15minutes after the sent time, I thought gmail push was ment to be almost instant as it's pushed out to you.
Anything I can check?
I'm on stock 2.2 btw. thanks

Try restart the phone

i have this problem too lol
no idea how to fix at this point, tried everything

Yep, sadly I've always had the same issue as well (I'm on T-Mobile in the U.S).
I've given up on the Gmail push, the app is so ugly anyway. The mobile gmail website looks soo much better, I just put a shortcut to it on my main homescreen and it's just a tap away to check whenever I need to.

Are you logged into Google talk? I believe that the pushes happen through that. That was back in 1.6 when I found that out though and maybe it has changed since.

The push should definitely work even if you're not logged into Google Talk, at least it has always done that for me on 2.1 on my old N1 (no longer have it).

Google Mail problem

Hope this isn't already covered somewhere on the forums, I've had a search but couldn't see anything. I've noticed since the last couple of Cyan updates that my gmail app doesn't seem to be working correctly. if i read a mail on my phone it's not marked as read on the web version and the number of unread mails still includes these on the phone. eg if i get three new mails and read them all on my phone, wait a while and get one more message, the app shows 4 unread mails in the statusd bar but only one in the app itself. if i look in the web version of gmail, all 4 are marked as unread. not exactly earth shattering, but a bit annoying.
the more serious problem is that i can't seem to send emails from my phone anymore. as soon as i hit send (either new mail of reply) it just sits there saying 'sending...' until i get bored and delete it 3 days later. the messages definitely don't get sent as i've tried tesating to myself.
Had a look arou nd the internet and I've seen people with mails showing as 'sending...' but actually being sent. that i could cope with, but this is beginning to get on my wick. I've had to temporarily more to the normal email app - works fine from there, but gmail is much nicer.
any ideas?
FYI I'm on a UK Vodafone HTC Magic 32B running Cyanogen 4.2.5 - last resort is going to be a full wipe and install from the ground up, but I don't want to have to re-download all my apps (not on SD as I've only got a class 2 16gb)
Well if you dont wanna do a full wipe, which would be required for the the other solution found, you can flash my theme template over here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=584521
which replaces the google apps, which should hopefully fix it
please make a nandroid backup before flashing just in case
thanks mate, i'll give it a whirl.
Tell us if it works! I hope it does lol
hmm... weirdly it just made it worse
tried a few reboots to make sure i wasn't going nuts, but since the update gmail won't even open. no FC or anything the screen fades out in the groovy eclair way and then goes straight back to the desktop. thought it might be something to do with not being sync'd (which i think it might be) but the sync menu iten does nothing. click on it and it doesn't drop to the sub-menu.
just restoring my backup now. thanks for the help though - any other ideas?
think a fix_permissions might help after flashing your template? completely forgot to have a go. the lack of error messages or FCs makes me think it probably won't
No if it didnt work dont reflash it. can you pull a logcat after attempting to send an email? i have a feeling its due to not resolving google.com as ive seen in many logcats.
hmm. tried again with a fix permissions and the same problem again. maybe chucking it out of a window will help... bloomin' technology...
thanks, i'll try a logcat later on (work pc at the mo, so can't track it from there)
well I've solved it in a more or less painless way. used backup for root users, wiped and installed 4.2.5 from scratch and restored my backup. gmail is now working properly. there seems to be a bit of an issue with backup for root users where some apps are showing as installed on the market but aren't on my handset, so i can't actually install them again (uninstall and open are both greyed out on the market app). only a couple of them though and nothing as vital as gmail, so i'll put up with it i think
Yes that was the actual solution, reflashing the ADP image and cyan. Using backup for root users is good and that market problem has been there for a while relating to cyans rom. I dont remember seeing a solution for it. I just realized that you may have been able to just restore your data.img from your nandroid after reflashing ADP and cyan and been able to preserve your data.
thanks. might give that a go tonight. as it is, it's only taskiller full, bump and bloo that I'm missing, so i've installed taskiller lite, blabber and ignored bump. ity seems whenever they get an update in the market it reinstalls correctly (that's how i got my calendar back), so i'm just waiting for them to get updated. was thinking about pulling the apks out of my nandroid image and then intalling them into the corrected version.

100% awake time

Any fix? Search brought nothing. Using aloysius 2.1 but it stays the same on any rom i go to. No jit or oc
Just for the sake of trying, go into DConfig, click the banned apps button, uncheck Sense, save twice and allow the phone to reboot. I know that running JIT w/Sense banned will run 100% awake, but let's give it a shot anyway.
DConfig in aloysius?
yeah, it's in at least some of the 2.1 builds. I know it causes awake time issues when banning Sense. Some reported the issue when not running JIT, so I figure it's worth a shot.
Dont c what you're talking about
Only other thing I can think of right now is Live Wallpapers. Do you use them? If so, try switching to a static and see what that does. Beyond that, I am not sure right now.
if you don't have spare parts, go to market and download, or use *#*#4636#*#* to check battery use, you can find the app keeping it awake and uninstall or kill it. For me, it was beautiful widgets, which I'm not using anyway right now, so I uninstalled. Also, check settings/accounts and sync. Look under google, and see if one is way behind the others in last sync time. Me, again, I keep finding picasa us stuck, so I just unchecked it to never sync.

That's the thing... I use spareparts... and it's just showing 100% awake but no app running.... I've tried everything and the last 4+ roms show 100% awake time for me... Strange
How about time without signal? And under battery use in spare parts, anything significantly higher under cpu or network use?

Heres what I get
10char'...

With stock 2.1, I was seeing the issue with Facebook for HTC Sense. As soon as I took the account out, it was fixed. Don't know if that's an issue on any custom ROMs...I haven't seen it on any of the ROMs I've run except for the stock 2.1 zip that Damage put out.
that 0 app is what's doing it, and it's that com.htc.bg I believe, meaning syncing with facebook, calendar, friendstream, etc. you should go into accounts and sync in settings, turning one thing off at a time (also look in google, calendar, picasa, etc. there) till you find what turns it off. Then we'll see if we can find out why/fix it, or just disable it permanently if you don't care

Awesome i think its facebook cause it does it on all my roms
Turned off all sync still at 100
Try pulling the facebook app to back it up then delete it (htcfacebook.apk) and see if it stops. It's not controlled by the sync settings

Didnt work and for some reason didn't save now I need the apk lol
I dont understand the awake issue but I have it too. But mine is weird.
No matter which ROM I use my awake time is fine for the first couple of days. Then, for no apparent reason, it shoots to 100% and stays there. I backup my ROMS as soon as I set them up the way I want them and restore every couple of days. Sometimes I can go 3 or 4 days with great awake time before it all goes to hell lol
you can pull the apk from the original rom zip file, then push back. Can you try with a fresh install and no apps installed? I think we've about eliminated what comes installed...

I already pulled the apk... the only left to do is install another rom but as i said, any rom i install automatically goes to 100% awake... no effect on battery life but its just annoying lol... well at least it doesnt appear to affect battery life but im used to only about 6-8 hours before im at 10% under heavy usage.

Market apps won'd download

Tried searching..
My rooted NC has been working perfectly. I have downloaded lots of apps. Now when I am on the market everything seems fine but files will not download. It just sits there on "starting download". The only thing I can think of is I used Titanium backup to "wipe data" on the market app...I am a noob, was that dumb?? I thought that might clear my market search history that keeps adding up. Any thoughts?
mine does that once in a while. i just reboot the nook and it starts again
I have re-booted a few times...no luck.
I had that symptom after I deleted Google Talk. I just re-auto-nootered & all was fixed. Nothing was disturbed. I never heard any feedback on whether or not that was a viable restore method, but it worked for me by restoring the missing files. If I were you, though, I would wait for someone else to chime in & give some guidance.
Cheers,
kev
now that I think about it my Gmail has not been working either. I am not getting notifications of new mail. When I launch Gmail and hit refresh it will get my mail, but not automatically like it used to....must some google account issue????
make sure you log into Google talk which should fix the issue.
My experience also supports the need to be signed into Google Talk in order to download from the Market.

I may have logged into google talk when I first rooted...but I have not touched that app since. I tried to launch it and it kicks me back to my home screen right away. Tried a reboot..same thing.
re-rooted, problem solved.
I rooted my Nook Last night, everything seemed to work fine as well. now( about an hour ago) the Marketplace stopped downloading.
Is re-rooting the only answer?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks

[Q] Engadget / Yahoo Mail problem in CM7 final

Just flashed CM7 final without any issues.
But Yahoo Mail only loads 10 newest emails. Engadget app won't launch. Anybody had similar problems?
I concur on the Engadget app...not sure about Yahoo since I don't use it. It's a bummer, the Engadget app is one of my most used on my phone.
I don't use yahoo, but the Engadget app works fine for me... it used to show up too small but there is a fix in Spare Parts - uncheck compatibility mode. This fixed it to show up properly. Maybe try that? What error are you getting, just a FC?
I tried to disable the compatibility mode, rebooted, still Engadget came up with a white screen.

So far I like the Android mail app better than Yahoo's for Yahoo mail. It is working fine for me with CM7 release
I have the same issue with Engadget app. Blank page after uncheck compatibility mode and reboot.
Feel lucky that you can get Yahoo Mail to work at all on this device. Every time I try to set it up, it tells me that the password is incorrect, even though it isn't. I've tried this on 2.1-2.3.
Somewhat off topic, but I find it ironic that I can't sign into the XDA app and view a thread I've participated in without a FC.

While I'm not on CM7, yahoo mail will no longer download e-mails for me on my autonooted NC. Worked just after I installed it and then, no new e-mails (accoridng ot the app) since April 10. Of course, my inbox online would beg to differ.
The Engadget app just takes a real longtime to load the EULA on CM7. Leave it at the white screen for 10-30 secs, then click Accept, and then you'll be rockin'.

[Q] Sync not working.

I've tried looking this up and have found no answer so i'm going to post it up on here to see if anyone can help me out.
Just like everyone else was having problems with the latest ATnT update messing up their phone so did I it caused my phone to get stuck in a boot loop and i couldnt find a way to getting out of it so i re-locked the bootloader and ran the RUU on it to return it to the stock kernel and rom.
After doing this i rooted the phone once again and switched back to the custom roms and the same kernel i had before, as soon as i did the update showed up again and i postponed it and went into titanium back up and deleted "com.smithmicro.dm" from there and that stopped the update.(i had seen it in a forum or how to get rid of the update) but now im not receiving notifications from facebook, twitter, or gmail. i have to go into the app myself and refresh it. somehow the Accounts and sync in the settings arent working for me. In the status bar it says its syncing and its shows the circle form by two arrows but it stays on there and never goes away. ive rebooted the phone many times, tunred the sync on and off, and even made sure in every app that the notifications are on.
Does anyone know what might be wrong?
Theres still no syncing going on, its like the push notifications are just not working on my phone at all.
Ive even switched roms a couple of times and i dont get anything from either facebook or twitter.
i think the gmail work periodicly.
Could it be an issues with the kernel?
Something similar happened to me too with the Calendar sync just the other day. I had to go into Settings -> Apps -> All and go to Calendar Storage, force stop, clear data.
Try doing this for all the services that you sync (fb, twitter, gmail, etc). Stop them, clear the data, then reboot. Once your phone boots up, go into Settings -> Account & Sync and force a re-sync. Hopefully you'll be back up and running.
I actually got them to work again randomly, well actually I installed a new Rom again buy instead of restoring everything from titanium backup I just decided to do it myself and it worked.
I wonder if the sync backup was corrupted or something?

It's possible, but I'd still put my money on the sync data cache being bunkered up. Glad it's working for you again though!
