I am not getting push notifications from Gmail. This was also happening with Words with Friends also, but after cleaning cache and data, it's been fine. But same actions have not fixed Gmail. It works for about an hour then stops notifying again. Not going through factory reset headache. Suggestions?
Can you uninstall gmail then reinstall but do a restart before installing again

I've tried everything! If I look in the App sync settings it shows its being synced all the time but not notifying me

Still happening, but if I go to Settings - Accounts - Google - and click on my Google email - Sync Gmail - uncheck it then recheck it I get my email notifications ONCE. How often is it supposed to sync a gmail account? If I check Settings - Accounts - Google and look at my email address, for example it's 3 p.m. it will tell me it last synced at 1:24. So I will sync now, no notification appears until I uncheck then recheck sync Gmail??????????
Google is well aware of this problem

Hey I was wondering if anyone else was experiencing this. When I check my gmail on my phone and if I delete it on my phone and then go check gmail on my computer later (more than an hour), the email I deleted on my phone remains undeleted and unread when I check it on my computer. Does anyone know whats wrong and how to fix it? It used to sync fine when I delete or read something on my phone, it mirrors it on my actual gmail account.
go into settings-applications-manage applications hit menu select filter hit all and clear data/cache from gmail and gmail storage

Mine has been having this same issue for the last few days. Think it was when I upgraded to Cm 5.0.6
Fixed mine by clearing gmail and gmail storage data/data cache and reflashing gapps.zip

Hi, XDAers!
I updated my MM2 to Stock Android 2.3.6 and everything was working as well...
But I think I found a little bug in facebook (apk) contacts sync:
I just installed the app via Market and logged in, but for my surprise it doesn't show in Accounts > Other Accounts (as Twitter or even LinkeIn does) and sync is not working. (PS. not the Motoblur thing).
I tryed reinstall facebook app, reflash sbf, wipe data, restore factory defaults, santeria...
No success!
And there's no option in facebook app settings like in 2.2
Someone else can confir this bug, or is just me?
Well, yesterday I noticed the Facebook icon was shown in Accounts > Other Accounts, but when I clicked it, nothing happened... Thought it was a bug of Blur, so I took wipe data / factory reset and created a new Blur account.
Now, I noticed the icon is there and working (I've tested it)
Thank you for post it... I'll set up Facebook contacts from Facebook app instead from Blur (it has a lot of sync bugs)
--------------------------------------
EDIT: seems that there is no way to sync Facebook contacts using Facebook's own application. seems that the only function of the Facebook icon in Accounts > Other Accounts is just log into Facebook application. the only way to perform this task seems to be using the MOTOBlur.
Use Contact Sync For Facebook, is the best for me! If you talk about the same app sorry...
But there 2 apps Facebook Contact Sync and Contact Sync for Facebook, the second choice is best, but didn't have the options to sync automatically

I got the same problem in Retail rom, and then i've installed this app, worked pretty well ! thnks
I am using the simple email app included, Gmail is disabled. Using arhd 10.1 but this problem was here long before with original stock.
I guess I have already tried all possible combinations to have the mail sync, maybe someone else has an idea on how this works if at all.
In settings I tried the smart sync, then each number of minutes, whatever I put in there, the only way to have the mail query the server is to manually open the application. For instance, I send myself an email from desktop, my ipad picks it up in a matter of seconds, I mean the fu$#er is in sleep mode, cover on, then I almost instantly hear that notification sound. The One however, I could wait all day, no sign it knows about it.
I have 2 email accounts configured, yahoo and Gmail, I also tried to add one at a time, nothing seems to help.
Thanks for any idea on how to make it work or any suggestions on a third party app?

Smartsync takes time to build a database of data about your usage and when to check for email. For Gmail the best bet is the Gmail app, which will get almost instant push notifications.

I'd rather be using only one app for my email accounts - - the stock mail for instance.
It's just that no sync mode seems to work, be it smart or not

like the guy said above. smart sync needs to build a repour before it will know when to check. its not having information pushed to it like the gmail app is. your best bet is to use the 2 separate apps since each individual app has the ability to push emails immediately while HTC's smart sync or manual sync is just basically timed sync-ing. its just that smart sync is timed to how the phone learns your usage?

As I said the manual mode doesn't work either.
I am going to try k9 for now..
Sent from a pizza
Okay, I think the problem might be elsewhere: the k9,same as mail doesn't seem to sync either. I have tried this over wifi and data, in power settings the sleep mode is disabled, I even disabled power saver.
Does email synchronization works for anyone excepting gmail users?
I am going to enable gmail, see how that behaves with sync..
Sent from a pizza
Manual mode as in your in the mail app and request it to refresh? And the email still doesn't come through? Not sure then.. I used smart sync for a while then I found it to not update fast enough for my needs. But it did always work.

The mail app syncs over wifi, I found out. Yes, it took a while (set it up to check at 5 minutes.). However, it still doesn't work when screen is off.
While on data only, the whole sync is very conservative. Unless I open up myself the mail thing it doesn't bother to refresh. In fact, the only thing synchronizing over data is weather from BW widget, but even then I am afraid it only refreshes itself when opening the screen. Ah, and Google play, I get notifications over mobile data as well.
I mean I used to want this conservative data behavior when on 100mb data plan, however now I have 3gb to spend and having trouble with email notifications?
I suspect there might be a misbehaving app will try reinstalling everything and one app at a time..

penultimate post.
I know I asked this before but every since I updated to 4.4 my gmail sync has been painfully slow. Once in a while I'll get an instant notification other times I'll have to wait upwards of 5 minutes for it to come through. I didn't have this issue on 4.3. All I noticed when I checked the sync settings is that the sync icon was stuck on gmail and I had to manually refresh it. Does anyone have any suggestions. I already cleared the data and rebooted but there is no change.

Check the sync settings on the gmail app.

All those are fine. I'll send a test email and it will be instant but if I repeat it I'll have to wait 5+ minutes for it to come up again.
Mine Is Just Slow To Sync
My issue is similar, but different. My Gmail app on my phone is not syncing (or at least it takes forever) to sync with the Gmail itself.
If I delete 10 messages from my phone (Gmail) then go to a computer and visit my Gmail account via a web browser, the messages are still there.
I'm running HTC One. 4.4 Kit Kat Seems to have started around the time I upgraded. I also have a Google Apps domain, not straight Gmail. But we all know Google Apps mail is just Gmail with your own domain name.
Anyone else having this issue?
DISREGARD, I RESOLVED BY: FORCE STOPPING MAIL APP, CLEAR DATA. THEN RECONFIG CLIENT/APP.
I have a corporate account (exchange). I sync only contacts and calendar for this account, no e-mails. Sync frequency is set to automatic (push). The problem is that the calendar is not synced automatically i.e. new appointments don't show up until I refresh the calendar manually. I already tried to clear cache/data of calendar app and account removal and addition, nothing helped. Does anybody else have such issue?
Apparently a known 4.4 issue... I've read anyway. Use search and find them... Maybe they found solutions?

is a problem with 4.4. 4.4.1 and 4.4.2 address "all" exchange issues. check your corporate account settings (settings menu). mine sits on "synching now" and never syncs. generally if i uncheck which one isn't synching, get out and get back in, it syncs fine.
check the OWA logs

My Exchange account was also stuck at syncing. I went in via the browser/OWA and enabled logging on my MotoX Exchange connection and found errors. The errors were with syncing contacts that had birthdays. Reading the 4.4.1 change-log it appears that this one issue (and many other exchange issues) are resolved. I removed birthdays from my contacts and things started to sync again.
hope this helps :good:
my exchange on 4.4 didnt work. reverted back to 4.2.2 all good now
