Gmail app empty after 7.0 update. Any solutions? - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Updated to 7.0 and all my apps. My Gmail app doesn't show any email when I open the app. However I do see the notifications for my email on lock screen and in notification tray but when I click on it the app loads empty.
I tried to uninstall and reboot where it will work on first boot but after awhile the Gmail app won't show the email.
Any suggestions?

Try Aquamail

Do you have exchange accounts? If so, remove them then swipe Gmail away from the recent apps screen. If it returns to normal, try adding exchange accounts one by one slowly.

[Q] Gmail application / Samsung email application

I would like to stop using the integrated Gmail application!
Is that possible.
I'm using, and its very nice, the Samsung application.
If I try to uninstall it tells me that it can uninstall only the updates.
The issue is that both Samsung and Gmail application have push notification and I get notified from both.
Thank you in advance
nobody?
I dont want to use any more the build in client Gmail.....
Have you tried going into Gmail ->Menu-> accounts and deleting yours? I guess that would stop it from notifying new mail.

Like dandon said DISABLE THE GMAIL SYNC in Accounts and Sync.
OR
Use System App Remover to remove Gmail. Do this at your own risk.
You should be rooted to use this app.

I have layer preinstalled, would the app remover get rid of it without affecting the phone normal operation.
Thanks

I don't think removing Layar should affect the system. No idea.
I've tried removing Adobe flash and everything's fine.
Layar can be removed safely. In fact, all apps that you can find on the Samsung Market can be removed. There's a slight issue with task manager though. If you press and hold the home button, a window appear with a task manager bar. Pressing that will result in an error. Nothing major that will affect normal phone usage though.
But NEVER remove Gtalk.
Guys...
the idea is to have the synchronization with the account of gmail(for contacts) but not to use the Gmail build in application.
After using the Samsung Email application for Gmail and Yahoo, I have now in the menu "Accounts and Sync" two accounts that I can sync.
My question is: how to remove the account only from the Gmail application and not from the Sync menu.
Thank you,
Contacts can be synced between phone and google via exchange active sync

Gmail App vs HTC email app

I have a question about the gmail app vs the preinstalled email app.
I know the official gmail app recieves gmail instantly when they come, but can i just unistall the gmail app itself, an use the gmail setting in the standard email app, an still get emails instantly?
The gmail app pushes notifications to your phone. The email app pulls them to your phone.
The benefits of push are 1.faster notifications 2.better battery life because google's servers are doing most of the work.
when i hade my iphone 4 non of the emails were push but i had my gmail setup as a microsoft exchange and changed some setting and i was getting my gmail pushed dont know if this is the same as htc mail app
Is it possible with gmail application to show the number of new unread email on the icon?

Yes it is if you download Gmail Unread Count from the Market.
Is there anyway to set this up to where gmail will push emails to the htc app rather than the stock gmail app? Id like to just use the htc email app instead of having my gmail sent to a seperate app.

Thanks! but upon reading the reviews, a lot of complaints about it draining the battery though.

You can add gmail as the mail provider but I don't think it will push though. You can setup when it should sync though.

I have my yahoo an hotmail setup that way, but my other 2 gmail accounts is through the gmail app. It would be nice to be able to remove the gmail app an have it push straight to the htc app though.
I know it is a late reply but i stumble on this one through google search, so maybe others are too.
Solution to get push mail in your htc mail app, is to add gmail account through exchange/active sync. Then you can set it to push as the refresh interval. You don't need the gmail-app anymore.

[Q] Why do I get Facebook notifications?

I have turned OFF all syncing with FB in the sync settings. I still get notifications when I recieve a personal message... Any clues?
kill the facebook process in running services
this has annoyed me too, that app should really respect how we set up to disable sync.
it also annoys me that it automatically adds facebook contacts to my phone contacts when I only want numbers there (what's more it adds them with pictures >_<) just like gmail. however with gmail, if you choose not to sync this does not happen
so what i did was just to uninstall that app and browse fb using opera
Go into the settings of the Facebook app...

Syncing
Turning off Syncing in FB app does not disable FB notifications! You have to go to the FB main screen and then press menu button, go to settings as pre-poster said. There you can disable notifications.

how to read gmail messages on your gear?

I believe you can add your gmail account to the stock email app so gmail will show up on the watch but do incoming gmail have the push feature in the stock app?
Thanks

What is the name of the stock email app, trying to get step by step instructions to this.
The stock app auto-configures Gmail as "push." I'm guessing it's IMAP behind the scenes and it only applies to e-mail, not tasks or the calendar.
Try this, it is working for me for Hotmail.com and Gmail.com accounts.
1- Went to Stock email app(looks like a white envelope with @ symbol in middle.
2- Created hotmail.com account(dont go through manual process of setting account) and selected "push" for sending emails to Note/Gear. Put your email address and password, follow the steps and you are done.
3- Create gmail.com account and do the same as step #2.
4- Go in your Note to Settings-General-Accounts. Select the Google account and hit enter, Uncheck box by Sync Gmail.
This is how I have it set up and Hotmail as well as gmail emails are coming into the Note and Gear.
Someone correct me if I am wrong.

I am getting proper notifications for Gmail account by pushing the mails to the stock Email app also.
It's working very nicely.
If you set up Gmail in the stock email app, can you still use the Gmail app to read and rely on the phone?
I like the Gmail app as it is seamless between phone and laptop in terms of marking as read, sorting into folders etc.

Yes you can still use the gmail app on the phone just fine.
my email notification is not working as well. tried wit imap and pop but it's not showing
guys anyone here with a working email notification?
You need to enable the pop3 support in the Gmail settings page first before adding the Gmail account to the stock Email app.

Can't get this working either, no notifications from stock email app with my 2 gmail accounts. Notifications are set for stock email and accounts seem to be pulling mail down so not sure why my gear isn't telling me I have mail

You need to use stock email app and when you get to a screen about server, there is a drp down option and select push. You need to also go in your ear app and in setting, there is a section for choosing which apps to send to Gear. Select stock email app, send yourself a test email and should work.

That's exactly what I did, no notifications though

See post above me. Make sure you DO NOT choose MANUAL in the stock email app when setting the gmail account choose the option to the right of that for the system to do it all for you. In the next page I believe is where the drop down option at the top is to select PUSH.
If you like, send me a pm with your phone number and I can call you when you want. I think that will be easier than trying to go back and forth with emails.

Yes, in the PC browser, go to your Gmail page and then to Settings.
There you will see tab menus on the top. Choose Forwarding and POP/IMAP tab.
Then, you will see the option to enable POP.
After that, you can just add an account in the stock email app to deliver Gmails with the option of "push" delivery automatically.

Weird as I did not have to touch my MAC to get the emails from Gmail to work with my Gear. All I did was set up the account in the stock email app, select the auto set up, select PUSH in the next setting screen and voila, emails coming to the Gear. I did have to go into the Gear app setting and check the email app to send notifications to the Gear.
All is well in my world and hope we can help one another get their emails and texts going.
Want to remind everyone that only the stock text and email apps are allowed to send info to the gear. If you are using something else, you may get the notification but, nothing else. You will then have to go into the phone to view the text or email.

I've had the same issue, no notification at all, i've tried everything, but now solved it.
Everytime i've sent e "test-mail", my phone (galaxy note 2) was not in sleeping mode. As i gave up trying, suddenly my Gear was pushing a new mail that came in.
So for me, it only works when the phone is not awake (what makes sense in my opinion). Hope that helps someone others problem too.
Good luck.

That makes sense to me. I don't want the notifications to clog up my watch if I am already looking at the phone.
That only wastes the battery life of the watch. Smart!

What email app are you guys using?

Curious as to what email app you guys are using on your P9's and if you get notifications?
I tried the default app for gmail and it only shows inbox and not sent or other folders which is a waste of time for me, all other emails apps dont show notifications unless I open the app and thats with the permissions set correctly.
I use Nine email app..it bas good support for exchange as well.

i delete some of my mails and after that when i enter my email app again my mails are still there. i think this is a huawei mail bug.
I use Outlook but turned off notifications now.
I prefer Gmail. ?
AquaMail has exchange support (also calendars) and runs at here without problems.

Just choose the option for hot mail and then enter your full outlook details when it asks. That's what I did .
