Basically, I get a notification of new mail on my phone before my web Gmail, which is normal. But when I read or delete an email from my phone, it doesn't sync properly with the normal Gmail client, because those emails are still unread.
I have a possible theory as to why this might be happening: From what I can remember, it seems like on FroyoMOD it was working fine, but any Gingerbread ROM I've been having this issue. Is it possible that because GB isn't really made for our phones, or the Gapps for GB are causing some sort of issue?
Thanks!
Having same issues. Gmail is not the only one having sync issues. In mine cm7 rc12 gb rom, even other apps such as yahoo mail, what's app, Google +, huddle are not notifying me anything even when I hv the background sync option on!

I think there might be something in build.prop that changes the sync. It is not always going to get everything right away as it only syncs every so often.

What's going on with contacts sync on Froyo? Not like I need it but why isn't it working?

It does work on Froyo but it really doesn't like being set up.
When I updated to Froyo and wiped (I had to do 4 wipes in about 10 days due to getting a market issue), I found it very difficult to switch on.
I tried various combinations of setting Twitter up through the app and / or through the Accounts and Sync settings, and eventually got it to switch on (I think through Accounts and Sync in the end).
Mine wasn't working, then it randomly started syncing again.
I also have problem with the official Twitter app. It doesn't refresh on its own anymore. I have to do it manually. It was working fine before Froyo. Do you guys have the same problem or is it just my phone?
Just wondering if anyone has a problem with the Facebook contact pictures not loading and if anyone knows a fix. Thanks in advance.

It depends on the ROM, some AOSP built ROMs have a bug which causes problems with FB syncing. Have you made sure that syncing with existing/all contacts is selected in the FB app settings?
I am on cm6 final it was just working like the other day then I accidentally clear the data in contacts and now its gone and doesn't load back? Yes syncying is enabled.

As it got tiring to relink my gmail contacts to fb just to have their contact photos after a wipe (rom flashing addiction)...especially with some asop builds having sync problems with the fb app..i've given up using that approach. Instead, i use Syncmypix. It syncs ur fb pics to ur gmail contacts uploading the pics to gmail. Hence, the next time u download ur gmail contacts after a wipe, you pull down their pics as well
Thanks works great

Why does it suck so bad when used with an active sync exchange server? It takes minutes for the app to open, then minutes more to respond to a tap.
This goes for the overcome roms as well as the stock tmobile rom.

I'm not having any issues with it on my phone, although I'm not entirely sure what you're referring to with Active Sync. My Exchange email is hooked up to my phone and it comes down automatically without issue.
In fact, the stock email app is the only app I've used that works predictably. I'm still keeping an eye out for other email apps, but so far the stock one is... do I dare say... the least headache infatuated one I've found.
So what exact symptoms are you seeing in regard to the way it's operating?

When I open the App it takes minutes and several taps of the waiting button to display email. If I change orientation or tap an email it cycles through it again. Touchdown works perfectly.

I have created Facebook account and it's working in socialhub but I couldn't get the contacts to sync with device. In GB there will be an option to check whether do or do not sync contacts. But I couldn't find it in ICS. How to solve this?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
go to your contacts and hit settings. then accounts. Then check off the "sync" icon next to facebook
^^ Copy That.
Else you can do one more thing. Reinstall the FB app. Once I got stuck in somewhat similar thing like that.
I found that my facebook application which was restored by titanium backup didn't actually sync well with contacts. so had to reinstall.
I checked it and its in green color. When I go further it shows only messages and calendar. It didn't show up contacts. Any idea?

I'm talking about inbuilt social hub which lets the contacts to sync with Facebook account.. Can I re install that?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
Why don't you use the fb app which is AVAILABLE in market. It also syncs in the same way.
Sure it will work.. But I don't wanna pile up with apps. Social hub has to do this job and I wanted to do it. Actually when I was GB I'll remove all social hub related apps (twitter account, linked account, even default mail app) except Facebook account, still it was syncing contacts flawlessly. Now I wanted the same. Does ICS doesn't have that capability??

Should I remove all Facebook items from ICS and install third party apps from market?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
Well I think you should wait for some more time till a solution comes out. I had the same problem with SocialHub. I chose over FB Market App since I didnt have time & wanted to get my contacts asap back. :/ Still will send you any info which might be helpful on this topic
Thanks.. Just now Google it... It seems there is a bug in ICS that stops sync contacts particularly in contactsprovider.apk. We need to add some .xml file it seems. Which is too tech for me so m gonna search some other option for this.

Hello everyone,
I have a big problem. My gmail app doesnt work correctly anymore. I pre-installed it some times but it doesnt fix the problem. I used 2 or 3 apks but all of them have the almost same version. As i said it did work but not anymore.
Using rom: stocklite 7.1
Gmail version: 2.3.5.2
Problem: if im getting a mail it doesnt show me that. It only says no conversation or something like that. The only way im sometimes able to check up the email is the point in the settings important mails.

Thread moved to Q & A section, post I'm the relevant section next time.
Hmmm. Do have priority inbox set up? Have you checked Gmail is set to sync (in settings > accounts and sync > tap on Google account and set Gmail to auto sync)? If you are going to try uninstall it in order to reinstall don't forget to wipe the app data. Try a different app like k9 and if the problem persists you can be sure the problem is with your account and not the Gmail app itself. I hope this helps as I'm not exactly certain I completely understand the problem. Sorry
