Something weird just started on my Bionic...
Gmail is set up (has to be so I can use google play) and has worked for the entire time I've had my bionic...
3 days ago I noticed that I quit getting gmail notifications... if I opened my mailbox I could press refresh and the mail would update....
So I thought to myself...ok, I've turned off the sync.. so I went to accounts and into my gmail account... to my suprise, the auto sync isn't there... I'm going to try and attache pictures of what it looks like...
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
If I touch the SYNC GMAIL it syncs
So I thought again, ok, just delete the account then put it back in...
I get the infamous You can't dumb a.s.s. error
I've went into applications and remove the cache on the gmail app, I've tried everything I can think of... any help would be greatly appreciated.

I didn't get any replies here but did on another forum.
Some solutions suggested were:
1. make sure your gmail account is set to sync
2. Menu > More > Settings > touch your account > check your settings on Sync inboxes and labels, Email notifications, and Labels to notify
3. make sure your autosync is on in your power widget
(Thanks gsDroid)
These seemed to help one other user that had the same issue... they didn't help me, so I ended up doing a factory reset...
Just thought I'd share in case anyone else has the problem or has any new suggestions!
Thanks,
Tim

Hello,
I'm having problems setting up my gmail account on my device with dutty's latest supported ROM. I cannot select the account type to imap although I typed it correctly in the box above. It just wouldn't allow me to select anything. Please see picture below
I appreciate any help

setup a fictious email as if it wasnt gmail....ie [email protected]
that way it wont find the auto settings for gmail.
then you should be able to pick imap as your protocol.
This problem isn't specific to Dutty's ROM and should not be in the ROM development forum. I've moved this thread to Kaiser general...
FWIW, if this thread *was* specific, it should have been posted as a reply in Dutty's thread.
hi there, i dont think my answer has much to do with your post. however, i am using a free service called www.mail2web.com to get my gmail...its a free exchange server...go check it out...
thanks
its a wm6.1 "issue" if you want to call it an issue. as long as it knows the email address it will use its auto config file. so you need to fool it....give it an address it DOES NOT know...then it will give you the option to manually configure.
so instead of listing [email protected] [email protected]. the next screen will give you options to set it up manually...there you can also change the email address back to what its supposed to be. also make sure you're using imap....enable it in the gmail settings.
your servers will be this..... imap.gmail.com:993 and smtp.gmail.com:587
enjoy
Anyone notice that there is a IM (a process, not shown on applications) going on if you open the Advanced Taks Manager list, on a hero?
and the process name is just "IM" and from the look of the icon it is an instant messenger. Does anyone know if there is such an App? I can't find in when i open the apps library but it shows up as a process.
and does anyone know what is this?

bump for this!
shoot me down if this is a massive assumption BUT
Is this a instant updater for your google mail account? I didnt think I had push mail activated but when I get a new email in gmail I get an instant notification.

The Gmail built-in is Push Mail already, correct me if I am wrong.
Perhaps IM is incoming messages? I see IM and think instant message.
Failing that does taskiller not show whats running?

not really.
that IM process I see has the same icon as the google talk icon, like 2 conversational bubbles with one red and one blue.
Is Google syncing wifi passwords with your account? Must be; my replacement n1 automatically knew my wifi wpa key once I synced my Google account. trying to locate granular limiting details. Thanks
It has an option of "Back up and restore phone settings". Those probably include WiFi passwords.

Watch out, they may fly out to your house, sit outside, join your wifi and then steal all your personal data

Only messing is this a big problem anyhow? I'd see this as a plus rather than a negative, it's not like you are trusting a random third party with your details.

Hi All,
Does anyone know how to change the default zoom within the native e-mail client?. When i open any messages they always appear half zoomed in, i have to quickly pinch and zoom out to get the experience that i want.
I currently have gmail and yahoo accounts set up and it's the same for both.
When i go to read a mail it looks like this :-
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
And i want it to look like this (which i can achieve by pinching and zooming out every time but that gets tiresome!)
Hi mate!
Can you tell me how did you manage to set up yahoo mail account???
I can't do it!

Found it!
It is kind of shocking, but it is that way on android, nothing to do about it, I have been searching for a solutions for years.. Even in ICS, it's still the same for both email and Gmail. I can't understand how so many people can use Gmail and be satisfied with it, in gmail you can't even zoom out, so have to scroll to the sides to read.
actually, on the note this issue is not as bad as on small screen phones
K9 app can make this right, but has some other bugs.. I found k9 works ok if you set max amount messages to no more than 250, I have two email accounts. Unified inbox gets incredibly slow if you have more than 500 messages.
Thanks Nick5000, it is rather shocking that such a customisable platform like android doesn't cater for this, I'll give k9 a go thanks.

Ever since updating to hangouts 4.0, I can't send hangouts messages via voice. Anyone else have that issue? Just says account not found.
?

Try one of this methods, it worked for me;
(1) Go to - (your phone's) Settings/Accounts and select your account and delete it. Afterwards log in again.
Or
(2) Simply go to (your phone's) Settings/ Apps/ Hangouts and select delete cache, and the select delete data. Last thing you have to do is force close app and then reboot your device.
If anything is unclear or difficult to understand then feel free toask me

This didn't work for me. Additionally, I went as far as a full wipe and reinstall and the issue remains. It only happens with hangouts 4.0. I tried using hangouts as a built in system app as well as a user space installed app, neither work. For now being on 3.3.x is working for me but maybe someone else has come across this issue and has an alternative solution.
It has to do with capitals in the email
Unfortunately this issue exists for several of us and Google still hasn't fixed it. It has to do with your original email using capital letters in the username. If you look at the email address it's trying to send from , you'll most likely see some capitals in there. See thread about it here: productforums.google.com/forum/m/#!topic/hangouts/K77g6VWr92E
