Moto X - T-Mobile
Added a new Exchange email account on the phone last week and all of a sudden I'm finding that emails are getting hung up in the outbox (using stock email app). Seems worse when on WiFi which could be an ISP issue, but also happening when on 4G LTE.
Happening on multiple accounts so not just limited to new account.
Any ideas?

Hi
I am in roaming mode now (travelling the US) and I cant connect to download my emails from the email tab (only my exchange accounts work strangely enough). Neither does the weather tab allow me to update, complains about connection settings and so on. However, surfing with the browser works fine. What could be wrong? Not sure if rhe network operaators could help and which one I shouldd call, the ones here or home.
Hello, I have been having some issues with getting GMail alerts instantly. When my N1 is on the 3G network, any new email that comes through my GMail account is notified to me instantly. When I am on WiFi though, it takes a while to alert me. Sometimes it takes 15 or 45 minutes to alert me of my new email from the time it landed in my inbox. I have a stable wifi connection, my internet connection is stable, no disconnects, as I am able to browse in my desktop. Can someone please help me? The only other app GMail related is GMail Notifier that is installed on my N1. But I doubt that is the cause.
On a possibly related note, when I try to download apps on the Marketplace, it keeps scrolling at 'Starting download' on WiFi. When on 3G, it instantly downloads and installs it. I just installed 2.2.1 on my phone.
Any suggestions, please?
Yea I'm pushing this topic again.
However, I fixed it.
Is your wifi sleep policy perhaps set to anything but "never"?
Had nothing to do with that.
My friend's Moto X just arrived. Extremely stoked about this awesome phone, but he ran into a weird problem. It would not send an MMS picture message without first disconnecting from his home network (WiFi). I did some research and came up with this post: MMS wont's send when on WiFi from this forum. It was for an S4 on VZ, so I wanted to post in the Moto X community the following hack that worked for ATT as well:
Send yourself a picture from your Gmail account that's associated with your phone, and it will work itself out. Once you have received the e-mail on the phone, MMS will work even when connected to WiFi.
I understand that MMS messages don't actually transmit via WiFi as they still go out over the data network. Therefore, you must have sufficient data coverage for the MMS to send. Another setting to check if this doesn't work is that the "Data enabled" box is checked under Settings > more (under Wifi/Bluetooth) > Mobile Networks while you are on WiFi.
Hope this helps anyone else out.
I think that's a Verizon (or maybe a CDMA) thing. My Verizon phones do what you described. My T-Mobile phone sends text and MMS while connected to Wi-Fi calling, which appears to disable the phone radio. Unless it's using data without indicating it to me.

had this issue and sending the gmail email worked like a charm. thanks so much OP. Been looking for a solution for a little while but hadn't come across anything.
instructions: Send an email from your you gmail account on your phone to the gmail account on your phone with an attached picture. Then you will be able to send MMS while connected to a wifi network. IN other words. open up gmail on your phone. send an email to yourself with an attached picture. issue solved.
Ever since the most recent update (5.1.1), "Google Contacts Sync" is hogging ALL of my home WiFi's bandwidth.
I have disabled syncing on all of my Google accounts connected with the phone, but still the app is chugging along through my data. If I connect my phone to any WiFi network, the network instantly gets choked by the ridiculous amount of data that Google Contacts Sync is eating.
For now I have installed Mobiwol and cut off Google Contacts Sync's access to mobile and WiFi networks, and this is working so far. But it's a bandaid on the bigger problem.
What the hell is Google Contacts Sync doing, and how do I get it to stop?
first off, a very simple question.. exactly how muxh ridiculous data is google contacrs sync using

I haven't experienced this problem with version shamu-lmy48m (5.1.1). What are you seeing that makes you think that "Google Contacts Sync" is using all of your data?
In response to both of your comments, I installed a data monitoring app after I noticed the slow-down of my home internet. In the 5-6 minutes I observed it, Google Contacts Sync used 85mb of data and showed no signs of stopping or slowing down. Even after I DISABLED sync for all of my accounts, it continued using data at this rate.
I have a pretty basic internet plan and 85mb in 5-6 minutes is pretty much maxing out the bandwidth I have available.
I found this post when googling about this problem. I have the same on my Samsung Galaxy A8. It's using also 5.1.1. In 3days my mobile used 3.4 GB of data in wifi connection.
Still figuring out a way to solve it. I'm gonna post it in the Google help Forum I guess.
I have two Redmi K20 pro running miui 12.5.1 in Mumbai, India on Vodafone Idea network.
For quite a while everytime I sent a SMS the receiver would receive 3 delayed duplicate messages and I would be charged for three SMSs. Same issue on both phones.
Today I figured out the reason. If wifi was on this would take place. However, if wifi was off then SMS would go immediately and only one message was received.
On digging deeper I discovered that the culprit was Voice over Wifi.
If I disable Voice over Wifi the SMS is delivered immediately.
If Voice over Wifi is turned on then there is a delay and receiver gets 3 duplicate SMSs.
Since there are no further updates does anyone know of a fix??
