Title says it all. My M8 refuses to sync with my gmail account. I noticed it a few days ago when I stopped getting notifications for gmail. Gmail, youtube, and even the Play Store simply do not work. Gmail tells me there is a network error and no connection, YouTube just does not load, and the Play Store tells me there is no connection. Neither my main google account or my school account can sync. However, within gmail, my hotmail account syncs just fine. I can access my gmail accounts just fine through web, it's just in my phone that they do not work. I tried to remove my main gmail account to see if that would fix it but when I went to add it back the phone says "Can't establish a reliable connection to the server. This could be a temporary problem or your android device may not be provisioned for data services. If it continues, call Customer Care." Thinking my account may have been hacked or some ****, I went into gmail on my laptop to change my password. Once I logged in, I noticed I had a chat request from an email account that I've never heard of before. Lizzie or some crap like that. I changed my password and tried again on my phone. No dice. I'm running Badseed with their custom kernel, if that makes any difference. Thanks in advanced!

I've been having a problem with youtube since about 2 days ago. I used to be able to set the youtube app to use my regular youtube account (since it's different from my google account), but now it automatically logs in to youtube with my gmail account. I don't want that because I have no access to any favorites on my youtube account, or anything else. Also, it seems that search is broken with my google account, because it returns nothing, and it gives me constant "No network connection" notifications. Any ideas? how about linking my youtube account to my gmail account, is it possible? How?
I'm sorry to say I can't help, but rather could you tell me how to sign in with my YT account in the first place rather than google? I've never found an option for it and was never promted.
well, whenever I'd first set up my phone and went into youtube, I bring up "Menu>Account" and then it'd tell me something like "Youtube works better if you link it to a youtube account" and then it asked for my login info, after I logged in, my favorites, etc, all was in there
Hmmm my phone only ever did that on JF1.5, I think. Oh well...
Hey guys,
Anyone of your experienced such problem?
I create an exchange activesync account for google. and then input all the information correctly such as the server name, username, password,
Then I select sync mail, calendar, contact, and push. After click finish, it always returns "authentication failed"
Anyone know what's going on?
Probably u have to enter a captcha trough the website (this can be done from a pc) or you have the wrong credentials.
Edit: or your internet doesn't allow you to connect, (business firewall?)
Edit 2: Google is no exchange, just use the default Google account option.

If you use the default mail client, you can set up Google via IMAP.

This does not work either. I have just purchased a HTC Desire S and cannot get a Google Apps working through either IMAP or Exchange.
Infact, any time I have tried to add an account via. Exchange I see that error message (Hotmail/Google Apps account).
It seems that imap.google.com is down from my limited tests, and I would want exchange support.
What gives, is the Mail client on the Gingerbread phones broke?
Cheers

I don't think you can connect through Google Mail via Exchange. Exchange is only meant for connecting to MS Exchange servers.
You have the following two choices:
- Either run the standard GMail client.
- Or run the standard Mail Client and connect via IMAP.
What exactly do you mean when you say you want "Exchange Support"? If you want Exchange support, you should look at Exchange-based email services.
BTW, I have no issues connecting to GMail's through IMAP using the default email client nor do I have issues with connecting through the GMail client.
Thanks for your reply.
Actually gmail can be accessed via exchange. As I used before in iOS. You can find it under the webpage of google/sync.
There's explicit tutorial for ios user to set up an exchange server for gmail. The mails is pushed to the client rather than retrieving them every certain time.
server is: m.google.com
user name: [email protected]
password: xxxx

That's using Google Sync (Google Sync uses the MS Exchange Activesync protocol) for the iPhone. One the Incredible S (as on the other Android phones), you do not need to use Google Sync to get push email (in fact I don't think Google Sync is available for Android phones). All you need to do is set up your Google Account and have it sync the calendar, phone book and email and you'll have everything working.
I'm not sure why you want to go via the iPhone(Exchange) route when there's a simpler (and more native way) of getting your Google mail set up with your Android phone.
Thanks man.
I know I can get push gmail from the built-in app. But what I want is to receive all my mails in just one app. Cuz I have 4 email account, which includes my school account, department account, and others, while I still want to get my gmail pushed.
Thanks for your explanation, that makes sense. I also live in Victoria, lol

The in-built google account does not seem to work for Google Apps accounts? as in anything that doesn't end in @gmail etc?
If I try the imap settings, I get an error message saying that the phone cannot connect to the server?
That is using "imap.google.com". Should the phone accept google apps accounts through the native google account provider?
And Android does work fine with Google Sync, at least it does on the Galaxy S I have.
Cheers,
MiG

It does work as I have my Google Apps account working with both the GMail and standard mail client.
When you set up your Google account, ensure that the sync for mail is on. That should set it up to work with your GMail client.

Just tried this. It says the username/password is not recognised through the built-in GMail App.....
Are there any settings I have to enable?
Most people missing the point here though? I too want to use the HTC Mail client (as I'll be honest, GMail client sucks) and IMAP only does mail, most of the time it syncs just fine using m.google.com but sense 2.1 (and 3.0) regularly get auth error's, and only go back to push mail when that's cleared or you launch the mail app to set the sync off again. It's deffo a sense issue as sense 2.0 Roms dont have the issue. It's seems to do with the way HTC have implemented their ActiveSync V14.x protocol stuff or how Google have (as sense 2.1/3 both try v14.1 first, then fail back to 12.x)
Hey ho, might dig around a bit more as there is some errors in the logs, might be able to track it down, might also ping a question over to HTC.
Seem to have fixed it, and it's a easy (if odd) fix,
Login on PC to GMail (or app for domain in my case) and change your password, change it on phone
All sorted... Dont ask me why?
So i tried a lot of things and nothing worked also hard reset, chang password from gmail account.
it´s only with the gmail all other email provider are working find and fo me i don´t like to have 2 email app´s because gmalapp is working fine but the i have to use the other app for my work and i don´t prefer it.
hope anybody can help.

v. 2.3.3
Guys, the thing is, the default gmail app is HIDEOUS with no pinch to zoom, it f's up formatting in portrait, and is just really low quality.
The HTC mail app looks A LOT better, but problem is, if you don't set gmail up as Exchange, it fails cause it won't push.
I'm on MoDaCo r12, and it has worked flawlessly thus far.
All of the sudden Google Talk started telling "Google Talk authentication error", and it keeps playing the notification sound at random and sometimes very often. Additionally Gmail has stopped synchronizing without any notice. Not a single error message!
I have never seen this strangeness in the two years of messing around with Android. Settings -> Accounts and sync sometimes tells me that "Sync is having problems and will be back shortly", but mostly it just doesn't work without telling me about any errors.
The log shows lines like these:
Code:
W/DefaultRequestDirector( 1373): Authentication error: Unable to respond to any of these challenges: {}
Sometimes there will be methods listed in the curly braces, but mostly not.
Code:
W/DefaultRequestDirector( 1406): Authentication error: Unable to respond to any of these challenges: {googlelogin=WWW-Authenticate: GoogleLogin realm="http://www.google.com/accounts/ClientLogin", service=""}
I have tried wiping /cache, re-flashing the ROM image, clearing data in any apps I think might be related to Google services. E.g. Google services framework, accounts, account and sync settings, Talk, Gmail, Market...
I have even tried changing the Google account password twice. The phone notices it and accepts my new password like it normally would, but the issue remains.
This is a @gmail.com account. I have a Google Apps account on my phone also, and that one works fine.
Does anyone have any ideas? I'm about to wipe everything and start fresh, but first I would like to know if anyone has any killer tips on to get rid of this. I'm thinking there might be a cached cookie/auth token or something somewhere that's causing this.

Check your date. Possibly you are either in the past or from the future

That's not it I'm afraid. Using ClockSync, so it was only off by about one second after a reboot just now. I tried fix permissions in despair, but to no avail.
As noted above, my Google Apps account works fine, it's just my gmail.com account that doesn't work. Somehow it seems that Contacts and Calendar are sync'ed. Meaning the time and date of last sync on those are a few minutes ago, but Picasa is dated two days ago, Gmail yesterday.
I checked it on my Nexus One too; it pops up the password prompt (because I changed my pass) and then goes on to synchronize everything perfectly fine. Wtf could cause this! I haven't really done anything but read Twitter, Facebook and some RSS via Pulse before it stopped working. I only updated a couple of apps that is not related in any way and have not changed any system settings.
Fcuk it, I wiped it all and restored apps with titanium backup. All good now.
Hi, i to have a problem with Google account sign in but its with Play store, every time i try to use Play store it asks me to ether use an existing Google account or make a new account even though i have a Google account set up on my phone. So my question is how can i get back on to Play store with my Google account? Tried by removing my account from my phone then going on to Play Store and signed in with my account but when i tried going back to Play store again it asked me to ether make a new account or use an existing account.
I guess its becoz in some parts of the world youtube services has been shutdown and it as affected google services communication badly. I live in pakistan and here we cant access to google play and other google services as well.

Once had the same problem and until I realized I had an error with my baseband, I pulled out a lot of my sparse hair.
Make a good backup and try to flash new bb, then Google will recognize you again (I hope!!!!)
I've had this lg g4 for about two hours now and i have been unable to get my outlook email account to sync. previously on my lg g3 it was as simple as just logging in and it would sync however now on my lg g4 it wont even allow me to add the email account. starting from a factory reset i go into the email application and select Microsoft exchange. from their i attempt to log into my account. then it tells me its checking auto info then after a couple seconds it says in a pop up. setup incomplete. cannot connect to server. check network connection and info, then try again. ( i have tried doing it on my data network and on my wifi both give the same result) then it brings me to the manual setup ( server address domain etc) ive googled and searched and tried different ports and server addresses to no avail and i am dumbfounded as to how i am supposed to sync my account to my phone. another perplexing thing it seems is that even the outlook app from Microsoft on the play store gives me the same behavior saying it cannot reach the server and using exchange services apk. gives the same behavior (gave me error code: status 110). the other odd thing is that i can make it sync just my outlook mail (using pop?) however not my calendar contacts etc. any ideas?
my g3 never exhibited any of this behavior.

1) Did you try setting up exchange email from settings>accounts&sync and then add account and pick exchange? This is how I did and it is working just fine and I can sync my calendar + email.
2) Did you update built in LG Apps? Settings>About phone>Update center> App Updates and see if there are any updates(there is an exchange app which will also be updated)

1) Are the APN settings correct and selected under settings>more>mobile networks>access point names?
2) May I assume that you have data connection if not using WiFi? - you did indicate that you tried both, but just wanted to make sure.
3) Also set up exchange server could have some outage and it isn't the phone's issue. Keep trying, because it does work on my phone.

1. the apm settings are correct and im connected to tmobile lte.
2. ive tried using both the wifi and straight data connection
3 Oh thank god it finally worked apparently it was an outage ( would have been nice to have been told it was) i just got it to connect.
thank you for taking the time to try and help me!
Try to reboot your phone maybe
We have Office 365 at my workplace. When I punch in my email in the Outlook app, I just get: "There was a problem accessing the site. Try to browse to the site again." It was working prior to rooting.
Are you using 2-step authentication? If so you need to use and Create a new app password from your security and password settings under Account Settings on the MS site. This is if you are using the regular email app vs the Outlook.com app from MS.
NM. See you got it working and was outage related. My bad.
Glad the OP was able to get this resolved ... I too use exchange for work and simply wanted to share my preferred exchange email app.

It's a bit pricey, but man is it leaps and bounds better than any other app I've used! Great support from the developers too!

G4'ed it!
Just logged in after around a couple of years being inactive.
Just would like to ask. Is there anyone using G1 exchange services in GMAIL?
I just noticed that after gmail and connectivity services have been recently upgraded, mail and other sync on my exchange services email are no longer properly syncing..
I have removed and added several times my work email (exchange) and doing that did not solve the problem that shows "No Connection" that appears whenever I access my exchange email using the default GMAIL service.
During initial set-up, all contacts, meetings and the likes including emails, sync. However, AFTER it completes the sync, it no longer syncs and always says "No Connection" on the bottom left side of my screen, and then "Reply" on the bottom right hand side of it.
On another note, error comes up if I try to sync "ALL" emails. So I ended up using just 1 month worth of emails instead of ALL.
Any idea aside from hard reset, to resolve this problem? Or is someone experiencing the same thing?
Thanks!
Jonas
