[Q] GMail not syncing correctly. - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I flashed to JM5 the other day and setup my google account on startup as usual.
Everything came down ok - calendar, contacts and mail. I have push enabled and I get informed of my mails almost instantly as expected. I can mark them as read and/or delete them without issues.
The issues come later when I sign onto my GMail account on my home PC - all the mails I have read/deleted during the day are still marked as unread and I have to re-read/re-delete them. Everything else works fine!
Can anyone shed any light on this?
I've tried to delete the account and re-add but it says I can't remove it (since other apps are so dependent on it) without a factory reset.

i've my gmail account configured to Archive downloaded/read emails

I have the same problem, and it started recently...past two weeks probably. It is annoying, I'll open gmail on the phone, read the messages, close gmail, open gmail and they are right back.
I'm on a Vibrant, search feature brought me here...

Email problems w/Tilt

've had me tilt for almost a year now, and have never been able to get my email to work properly. I don't use any added email program, just use what's included. I use gmail, my gmail acct has pop and imap enabled. I use the included settings on my tilt to set up my gmail account. When I set up my email, It only includes emails from the last 30 days and deletes emails off my tilt after 30 days have passed, so I checked the setting, to make sure it's set to download all emails, w/attachments. I reset up my email and it downloads all the email. It either does the same thing or, it then downloads all the in the "all mail" box from gmail, and not the inbox folder, but it doesn't download any of my recent messages. I've tried to set it up via outlook included on the Tilt via active sync, I've checked my sync setting to make sure it downloads my messages to my phones outlook, which is checked and it doesn't. I've done a hard reset, and tried to adjust all my settings, w/no luck. Any tips on how to get this to work, or is there a free email program available that's easy to use? Thanks
bumping, anyone able to help.
You don't have your account (on the phone) set up using POP do you? I remember that created some odd issues for me so I googled it and found Google's help page:
http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=78886
I you haven't seen it before it might be good to follow it's steps. If it's still having issues after that I'm not sure what's going on, sorry.

Weird problem with Google Sync

Hi guys, I just got my AT&T fuze and flashed NATF's 4.4 rom. Everything works just fine except a weird thing after I set up the Google Sync last night.
After Google Sync setup, at the email icon in TouchFlo 3D, it indicates "1" email, while there is absolutely no unread incoming email at all. This remains after I soft reset the phone. Then I tried to delete the Google Sync setting in ActiveSync, but the "1" is still there. Even worse, I then re-set the Google Sync, it turns to be a "2"!!! I even tried to delete all email accounts, but the number is still there even no email accounts were set up.
This problem does not affect any function of the phone but just annoying. Every time I wake up the phone I have to remind my self there is no email...
Does anyone see the same issue? Or how to fix this? Thanks a lot!
Install SK Tools and clear the notification queue.
Jason, I had the same problem. This one "new" email is created automaticly by WM in the Outlook account on your phone and contains instructions on how to use messaging in WM. Just go to the account list on your phone and check the Inbox of "Outlook E-mail". It should be called Windows Mobile E-mail Tips and Tricks.
Problem solved, thank you guys a lot!!!

Syncing GMail causes Force Close. Any idea why?

Starting yesterday, whenever my Gmail tries to sync up my inbox, it causes all my GApps to force close (original post here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7119344&postcount=2118) Turning off sync enables me to continue to use all other GApps and even load up the Gmail app. However, if I try to sync my inbox, whether it be manually or automatically, the force closes return. Does anybody knwo how I can fix this problem? I've cleared data so many times and it still does it.
Can't send from it either now.
Nobody's experienced this as well?
Got a fix
I experienced the problem on my brand new Samsung Vibrant from t-mo. Turns out, what worked for me was logging into gmail on a computer, creating a temp folder and moving ALL messages from the inbox into the temp folder you just created. Try accessing your gmail inbox from the phone now and it should work. You are then able to move all the emails in your temporary folder back to the inbox. Knock on wood, no troubles yet. Hope that helps.

error 86000108

when i try to sync my emails with my live.de (hotmail) account i always get the error 86000108. if i uncheck the email-sync box synchronization works fine (without email of course). if i check the box again i get this error back (m.hotmail.com).
the used email is my live.id so i can´t delete it from my phone and set it up again afterwards to see if it works fine then...
From memory 86000108 used to relate to having a corrupted item causing the sync to fail. In this case obviously in your mailbox which would explain why disabling it allows the rest of the sync to complete.
I would check Hotmail for any corrupted items and delete them.
Do you have anything else that syncs that mail, Outlook etc?
Yes I have (outlook 2010).
Nevertheless after some hours of swearing and trying I found the solution:
I tried to sync ALL emails, after switching to "only emails from the last month" it works fine. Seems it can´t handle too many mails...
Regards
Similar solution for me - thanks!
It turned out I had a 24mb email that was stopping the sync. Once I permanently deleted the large email, syncing started working straight away.
Just helped a friend with the same issue but a different error code. was his primary live account and it wouldn't sync.
Emptied out his live account but it still wouldn't sync... finally we cleaned out all his messages on his phone (including emptying the deleted messages folder) and that seemed to do the trick!!

Contacts won't sync and other issues

I'm not sure if this is Note 8 related, Samsung related, or an Android-wide Google issue, but figured I'd start here.
I have a Verizon branded Note 8 that I'm using on T-Mo. I just bought the device Monday from an individual. I flashed the T-Mobile firmware and everything seemed to be working fine, until I noticed not all my contacts synced from Google. I'd say probably 75% of them synced, but I was missing a large random chunk of them.
I tried everything I read to resolve the issue. Deleted and re-added my Google account. Cleared the contacts app data/cache. Rebooted. Downloaded Contact Sync Fix. Nothing fixed it. I evwn downloaded Google Contacts, and they wouldbt all sync. I checked my Google contacts online and they're all there. If I ADD a contact to my Note 8, it syncs to my Google account.
I checked my S8+ and tried to re-sync my contacts on that device, and it keeps giving the "Sync is having issues..." message. I don't get that message on my Note 8, but obviously it isn't syncing properly.
I did a factory reset. That didn't fix it. I flashed the unlocked firmware, that didn't fix it. I set rhe phone back up, and I noticed issue #2. I suddenly lost the ability to customize my Google search bar. It wasn't a big deal at first. I usually have to wait for the app to update after setting the phone back up, and sometimes have to delete and add the search bar widget back. But no matter what I try, it won't work.
I factory reset again and flashed back to the T-Mo firmware. I didn't restore ANYTHING and set it all up from scratch as a new device. Still those two issues remain. I'm bone stock, not rooted, stock Touchwiz launcher, using all the stock Samsung apps. My work around is all my contacts were synced with my Samsung account, and they synced to my Note 8 just fine, but I want my Google Account contacts to sync properly. The search bar will just stay white I guess.
TL;DR:
1. Google contacts not syncing properly.
2. Google search bar widget no longer customizable.
google related problem.

Your link says page not found, but I finally got it working properly after you responded. I couldn't get it to Sync properly at first. It took me deleting my Google Account, turning off Samsung Contacts Sync, deleting all the contacts from my phone, force stopping the contacts app and clearing it's data. Then I rebooted, added my Google account and let it all Sync again. Low and behold, all my contacts have now synced properly.
My Google search bar widget has still lost its ability to be customised however. Which sucks, because I like a dark theme and it was awesome setting the bar to Black and transparent.
