[Q] Gmail Down on my captivate? - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Its weird I can send gTalk messages, and can run the sync in settings but it wont update my gmail. I test sent my self a message from my phone and it wont send Its said sending for the past 4 hours and if I scroll down it tries to load older messages and gets stuck. It keeps saying no connection.
Any Ideas?
Tried a hard reset and a soft and a three button reboot. Cant figure this one out.

Did you try both in wifi and 3g? Also do you have that option in astro to enable download of zips checked? That may also be the problem

Ok I was able to resolve it by clearing the data and cache for gmail and gmail storage. I went through my actions and discovered there is a limit to how many pictures we can attach to an email or it will cause this problem. The only way to fix it is to clear the data. I can send up to chunks of ten 5mp pictures without it stalling the gmail app. Hope this helps someone else.

WiFi not allowing Gmail to be sent out on Froyo?

I recent switched over to Froyo and noticed that when I am on my WiFi and I reply to any incoming Gmail emails, they don't get sent out. They still have a status of 'Sending....' on the screen. Even attempts to reboot do not allow them to be sent out but receiving emails is ok.
Anyone else having this issue?
I have sometimes experienced this on my rooted Milestone after restoring a nandroid backup or flashing a different firmware. The trick is to go to settings, manage applications, menu, filter, all. Scroll to Gmail Storage and clear it all. Return to the Gmail app and let it sync. Hopefully it should work again.
Sometimes the calendar also does this - repeat with Calendar Storage.

Error with Gallery and Gmailing photos: Stuck in Sending

I have this interesting bug I've discovered.
When I take a photo (or go through Gallery), then go Share -> Gmail; I go to send the the mail...then the mail gets stuck in "Sending..." in the Outbox. In fact, all outgoing mail is then stuck until I go into Settings->Applications and "clearing data" on Gmail.
However, if I just plainly go into Gmail and compose a message and attach the image; the email goes through just fine.
It seems like the issue is with the gallery->share->gmail portion.
I'm running MaDoCo r21.
Anyone know of a fix?

I am having this problem as well.
Any updates on the problem? I'm running CM RC2
I have had this problem intermittently, I only clear data in gmail storage and then resync I haven't seen this problem on a while though
its been awhile since Ive had this problem as well. Sending emails in gmail just hang "sending" and receiving emails is fine, once deleted though I check on computer and they re still there...

Facebook Notifications not working? Possible real Fix...

Hello.
I was having trouble with the facebook notifications not working in 1.5.2.
I tried to uninstall/install the app
Clear cache
Installed 1.5.0
Re-flash ROM
etc etc etc...
And nothing worked.
I logged with a friends Facebook account in my Captivate and Push notifications were working !!
I re-logged to with my account and notifications still not working, so WTF?
So I started to mess around with the Facebook settings, privacy etc, and nothing helped to receive push notifications...
Until I deactivated my account and re-activated, and now I have notifications back! Is like a hidden setting in facebook that tells if push notifications are enable/disable, and after re-activating my account in some way is restores it, no idea but is working now...
If you have this problem, give it a try!
To deactivate: Account->Account Settings->Deactivate Account
To Activate: just log in.
Best Regards
Trying it now ... I've tried everything else... hope this works ...
EDIT: HOLY MONKEYS BATMAN IT WORKED! I'VE HAD MY DINC FOR 7 MONTHS NOW, WITH PROBABLY 12 DIFFERENT ROMS, AND THIS IS THE FIRST TIME IT HAS EVER EVER WORKED! Thankyou!
Details:
I just flashed the newest version of Magnolia with Clockwork 3.x. Clean slate wipe (other than sd).
I deleted the old version of fb that came with the rom (just from the app list in settings), cleared all data from that....DID NOT set up facebook for HTC Sense when doing original setup of phone right after reflash.....
Logged onto FB from my pc, deactivated, waited until I got the email, then logged in again.
DL latest FB from the market and set it up, asked someone to comment on a status, and voila, fb started notifying me EVERY TIME someone did, not just every 30 mins like the settings show...
YAYAYAYAY!! I'm so happy now! I'm gonna pass the word along.
Thank you!
Did it work for you?
Yes - see above edited post!
Or just log in to fb, register phone and check boxes to receive SMS alerts. Faster than the 1 hour intervals.

My notifications are popping up in real-time. The only thing that goes once hourly is messages or friend requests, as far as I can tell. I'm watching my facebook on my computer and my phone alerts me nearly at the same moment my pc does.
umm... ??
deactivate my facebook account? message posted day before april fools day...
something doesnt add up
You can do that without deleting your profile. I hear of people deactivating it everytime they log off for privacy concerns. When deactivated you dont show up on any of your friends pages or searches. Just log on to reactivate, you'll get an email welcoming you back.
you dont loose anything?
Nope. Not that I know of. Check out cnn story. http://articles.cnn.com/2010-11-12/...ngs-new-facebook-facebook-accounts?_s=PM:TECH

You have 2 weeks. If you don't login for 2 weeks it'll close. You can login again and it'll cancel deletion

I cant deactivate account as there is a business page attached with some development app attached.
Is there a modified app I could try?

[Q] SMS issue

Hey guys i need some help. I've got a bootloader unlocked(30.B7) rooted, stock 4.4.4 Moto X and I'm having the hardest time trying to figure out why I cant send text messages but im somehow able to receive them. I can get sms and mms but cannot send. I've tried using different text message apps and none can send. I've tried factory resetting and that didn't help either. Anyone have a clue?

It's possible your message center (SMSC) number setting has been changed or reset somehow (maybe if you recently swapped sim cards or something). Try resetting it by following the guide in the link below (disregard the CyanogenMod branding, it's the same for stock ROM).
if you can't use *#*#4636#*#* then either make an activity shortcut to Phone Info or use one of the dedicated apps in the play store, like Radio Switcher (the apps don't do anything but open Phone Info menu).

OK so i gave this a try and had no luck with the getting my carriers SMSC. I also found on one site that deleting my stock sms app may be the problem? sounds kinda lame since I've done that on other rooms but on other phones. Could that be it?
Yes, if you re-install the stock messaging app it will work.
I've tried different 'stock' sms apps form the play store with no luck still.
By 'stock' sms app I mean the system app 'Messenger" that came with the phone that you uninstalled. You will have to search around to find it since it is not in Play. Next time just disable a system app, do not uninstall it. That way if it breaks something you can re-enable it.
OK so I found the stock sms app and installed it, still a no go. I even tried converting it to a system app using Titanium backup. I've found that in that app and also Hangouts when I enter a thread the app FC's. I don't know what else it could be

Did you set the stock SMS app to the correct permissions? Probably time to flash the system.

[FIXED] Taking time to read contacts

Sorry I created a similar thread in the Accessories section.
So I am on stock 5.1 unrooted and it takes forever to read contacts. When I go to dialer it takes probably 40-50 seconds to open up and show my last few calls or starred contacts. At times when I am getting a call it doesnt show the contact name even if I have the contact saved.
Suggestions?
P.S- tried wiping data for the contacts app and even the dialer. No change. Even tried third party dialers. No change
So turns out I needed to clear data of "Contact storage" in order to fix this.
