Gmail email does not auto sync

[AngelCTMH]

It's driving me crazy, my yahoo and texts come through with no problem but not the gmail. I have looked through settings it seems to be ok.

I can get gmail to refresh to get email but it nevers does it on its own.

What phone are you using? If you look under a Accounts SETTINGS th hen sync....google sync..you might be able to see the google programs to turn on got syncing.

and the yahoo comes in automatically.


Now on my home page under "messaging" ( where you can check all incoming messages) text , facebook, and yahoo come up but NOT gmail...??

My mistake. Didn't realize in the droid 2 forum!

Under the gmail, can you trap menu then see settings or anything that gives you options to change syncs

Try going to Manage Applications/all/gmail/clear data. It will take the gmail app a bit to get going again. Then just follow the instructions on the screen.

You aren't EVER going to see Gmail messages come up in the messaging icon. I don't know why that is. Mine did that when it was new, so I asked the guy at the Verizon store- he said it won't ever happen. Not unless someone on here has done some kind of marvelous hack..........

Weird, yes. But that's all I can give you!

Actually if you use LauncherPro you can see gmail message indicator on the icon in your dock. It's a great app.

I will have to give that a try. I was speaking of a stock phone, of course, when I said that gmail in the messaging icon wasn't available- sorry to not clarify!

My phone is stock. No rooting here. You can download it and use without. Helpful to also download the app Home switcher so you can go back and forth and set default etc.
I don't know enough to root!
