gmail syncing since cm6 final installed

for some reason it doesn't sync fully and keeps saying there are unread messages when there are none. Is anyone else having this issue?

Yeah. You need to go to settings, applications, then Gmail and clear the cache and data, then go force it to sync in the sync menu. It should resync and not have that problem.

this does work, I have had to do it a few times though. Its random as to when it will happen, but this will help fix the problem for awhile

[Q] Can't delete old emails from Gmail

I rooted my Nook Color using Auto-nooter 3.0. Everything is working fine, with one acception, I can't delete emails from Gmail. When I push the button to delete the email, I get the confirmation dialogue, but when I confirm the delete, the Nook Color returns me to the home screen for my launcher, but when I go back into Gmail, the old emails are still there. Am I doing something wrong, or is there a way to correct this problem?

I had this same problem on my phone. If you go under nook color tools, applications, manage applications and go down to the gmail app and clear data and cache it should fix the problem at least it did on my phone.

When I go to nookcolor tools>manage application, I have no entry for gmail at all, but I do have the gmail application installed.

What you could do is star the message and then delete it once it's been starred.

Contacts dissaper in "PEOPLE" app

I have this problem on ICS...it's not rom related...cause i had it on Blue Lightning 1.1.0 and also on SLim ICS 3.1...the problem is that after some time (also after reboot) my contacts in people apps dissapear...it shows no contact...but when i open phone app contacts are dispayed there...i thought taht problem was because i had inverted contacts app...but now i have normal and again :/
Can anyone help me with this problem?

Have you cleared data from people app and contacts and everything contact related? Also download TB and do it from there. I had problems with my keyboard and somehow deleting from manage apps didn't work but deleting from TB solved it. Somehow its more through.
Have you factory reset from recovery and wiped cache, dalvik, system, etc..
Then flashed a rom fresh?

Of course i've done full wipe...and i tried clearing data of contacts but i don't try it through TB...i'll try and it now thanks but it was on two roms...my friend also have this problem now... :/ we don't know why...
after 2 reboots same again...no contact in people app...but through phone they are there... :/

I am in serious trouble w/ contact app too.
I am in ICS 4.0.4 Custom Rom(s). My Sync is always OFF..
Inverted or normal one make my contact members repeat to many times even 10 x the same member..
I am Cleaning data and reimporting them from Card but it has been doing the same behavior.
Upon a suggestion, I installed GoContacts EX and used its "merge" option but I observed this app erases fully the contact members itself. This apps also needs reimporting continuously.
I am sick and tired of this trouble..
Someone says SWYPE causes this problem, but I selected AndroidKeybord, still the same problem..
ANY SOLUTION ??

I can only think of two more things...
1. If both of you have it, it must be an app or something both of you are doing..
2. Another stupid thing that is probably tried... Go to the people app press menu, and look at contact to display..

I doubt swype is the problem i have used it before and nothing like this has happened. If it could be the problem you will probably have to disable the app from manage apps or un-install it for it to solve the problem
Where are all of you getting your contacts from, have you not stored it on google and then synced them. Or are they multiple sources?

Look at the pictures bellow...you can see that in people app there are no contacts but in phone app they are there! i tried to display all contacts and so on but no luck...

1. What happens when you click on "set up my profile"
2. Also when you go to "contacts to display" does the account you want show up?
3. Where are your contacts stored?? Google? Email? Sim card? sd card? Where?
4. When you try import it appears and then disappears later on....correct?
5. Have you tried wiping from Titanium backup?
Please answer all Q's

1. i can create my profile with my name i think...or what it is
2. yes they are both my gmail accounts
3. now on sd card...i tried it also with gmail and my friend who has this issue from sim...same problem
4. when i import them they are shown, but after some time they are not there, also after reboot they just dissapear
5. yes i tried it...didn't help

Full wipe again, fix permissions from recovery after setting up accounts manually (your not using back ups are you? If you are don't). Do this before setting up apps (let google download it automatically and finish, along with your contacts)
Upon reboot if the contacts aren't there again, delete one account and set-up again immediately. Let all contacts download turn off sync, go to recovery fix permissions, delete cache, and dalvik, reboot. Hopefully they should be there
If not then i think im out of ideas... Unless you want to see what happens when you go back to stock.... Its worth a try if its that annoying (I don't use the people app, only the phone app )
Very Good luck to you!!

My only Choice
As the most of ICS 4.0.4 custom Roms are connecting itself Wi-fi or Data and consequently as soon as connected it is syncing w/ google contacts even if it is set as 'sync off'.
Finally I could not find any other way but I rearranged my Google/ Gmail Contacts as the way I want in my phone thru the laptop.
It syncs but no more repetitions and erase.

Google Talk bugging out...

Hey all,
I just flashed the latest CM9 nightly with the latest gapps (and gapps fixer, god was I going crazy before finding that) and everything seems to be running pretty smoothly... except Google Talk.
It opens, it signs me in (finally, this gave me trouble too) but when I go into a conversation the trouble begins. I type out my message, hit enter, and nothing... sort of. It actually sends but doesn't appear in my conversation window. I can keep typing messages and sending but none appear. Then, when I receive a reply, I hit the notification, and my message(s) as well as theirs appear. Now if I reply again, go into another app, receive another message and try to go back, the conversation window is blank. If I type another message I cannot send it, it just remains in the text box when I hit enter. I go home, hit the multitasking button and close out Talk. Reopen and the cycle begins again.
I tried searching for this problem with various keywords to no avail. Not sure if anyone has seen this problem. But I'd appreciate any Insight. Thanks!

It simply seems like a sync issue.
Have you cleared the cache and data for Gtalk?
Also boot into recovery and wipe cache and dalvok

Ok... Are you receiving your Gmail like its supposed to? What about other sync accounts like contacts and calendar or twitter and facebook.
If its only google related you need to wipe data from maybe download manager and Google services framework

Hmm... I just had my boyfriend send a test email and tweet, and I waited a few minutes and never received notifications for them. When I went into each app and refreshed they were there though. I don't use Calendar much but it is showing my events and Facebook birthdays.
I'm not having any weird issues in other apps like Talk, but I guess something is up with accounts and sync because now notifications aren't working?
Edit: Okay I just received a notification for an email. However, I was writing an email and when I went to type my contact in to the to field nothing popped up. No list to choose from I just had to type the email address manually.

OK do this... go to Accounts and Sync and shut off all sync accounts. Reboot. Once rebooted go back and turn sync back on for all accounts, wait a minute or two and reboot again... hopefully that will do it

Nope... Talk still acting awful and contacts not listing in Gmail "to" box.

Alright so I finally gave up and just did a factory reset of CM9 and all is working well in the fresh install. I appreciate your help, thanks!

[Q] Sync problems Facebook & HTC One

Since day one I am not able to open my Friends-list in Facebook on my HTC One phone. When clicking on Friends I will get this message: Cannot retrieve friends list. Please try again later. [1/An unknown error occurred]
When checking Settings/Accounts & Sync in Android I will find an red refresh symbol of Facebook and this message: Sync is currently experiencing problems. It will be back shortly.
I did completely remove Facebook, People and Contacts on my tablet, phone and PC. But after re-installing everything, the problem remains.
I am not able to see my friends list and can not tag friends in a post. Also my contacts pictures in Android are not synced with the Facebook profile pictures.
What can I do to solve this annoying problem?

460 views and 0 replies, damn. Nobody got a clue? I tried to contact Facebook as well, but no help from them either.

Well, I'm not sure if it is related, but I guess you should give it a try:

Thanks for helping xineis!
I tried those steps but that didn't help either.
I removed and/or cleared:
PC>Facebook>Account Settings>Apps>every single app
Phone>Accounts & Sync>Facebook
Phone>Accounts & Sync>Google
Phone>Apps>All>Contacts Storage
Phone>Apps>All>Facebook (also uninstalled updates)
Phone>Apps>All>Facebook for HTC Sense
Phone>Apps>All>Google Contacts Sync
Phone>Apps>All>HTC Sync
Phone>Apps>All>People
I also removed all contacts from Google contacts on my PC.
After these steps I open Facebook, and after filling in my credentials I choose Sync all. After a few minutes, when I check the Phone>Accounts & Sync>Facebook option I will find an exclamation mark right next to the refresh symbol within Facebook Contacts.
I tried all kinds of configuration but never have been able to solve this issue. Facebook will simply not sync the contacts.
More suggestions please!

Just tried a full wipe but that also does not change anything. Than I tried another Facebook account and that worked just fine. But when I tried mine, same problem remains. Must be an error on Facebook server.
How can I contact Facebook directly? The help function sucks and it seems they just ignore my messages

You even tried the "change password" step?
humm, I don't have the One (yet), but as any Android device it probably has that reset button (is that the "factory reset"?). I know it's a little harsh but it could (maybe) solve your problem...

Have you tried alternative facebook apps like Fast for Facebook and Haxsync? See if they have are having sync issues as well. Also, is your phone 'authorised' by Facebook? Long shot but worth trying

Ok I had the same problem for ages and one day realised that not all syncs were on - under phone settings yes but apps have individual settings that cannot be overridden by your phone... I'm sure you wouldve tried something so simple but just in case - go into your Facebook app on your phone, under the menu tab select 'app settings' and at the very very bottom of the list there is an option for how to sync contacts i.e. none, all or existing only ...
This is probably something that you've already tried but hey, I was silly enough to not realise!!
I'm sorry if this was not much help, aside from blissful simplicity I am unable to assist.

very useful info
Thanks so much for the useful info ^^^....had this same problem and thought it was the recent kitkat 4.4.2 update. Thanks...am sorted
