Any ideas how to fix it? Thanks!
I had absolutely the same issue just after an official Twitter client was installed in my Desire. Its deinstallation was a good solution

There are a number of issues with the gmail app. The answer is to use the mail app and connect to google's exchange server.

Market being slow is completely unrelated. It was a general.. thing.
As for the mail thing.. what, precisely, do you mean by "takes longer to pop"? :/
change back to googlemail and see if that fixes your market, if it does and you want to use gmail do a factory reset on the phone and set it up with the gmail address.
worked for me when i had the problem after switching to gmail.

That is also Google's official advice, they say they're aware of the problem and working on a fix. I'm just glad I've had a gmail address from day one even though I live in the UK.

Has anyone successfully sync with their hotmail account?
I tried to change the server address to m.hotmail.com and successfully lead me to another page to sync with emails and accounts but when I click sync, it will show an error saying failed to create the account. please try again later
I think that all hotmail accounts have not yet been enabled for exchange active sync (unfortunately)...
Mine has always worked fine......

I get 'failed to create the account. Please try again later' on my device.
Perhaps it's not enabled on my account. Any way of telling if it has?
Hi guys, I do have exchange active sync working on my Hotmail account. Sync of email, contacts and calendar work flawless. Hang in there apparently this week more news will be made available regarding EAS.
I have the same problem.
it seems to connect to the server, but is then unable to create the account.
I think i have the wave 4 hotmail. but supposedly that is not all you need.
Same problem for me. Hopefully my account becomes enabled soon
It's not your account that's the problem, it's HTC's mail app.
Try downloading 'Improved Email' from the market, it's free and works like a charm.

Have tried other email clients on phone, no change.

Also which ROM?

deleting the accounts and re adding doesnt work.
email provider is google apps using gmail pop and smtp servers. on our own domain.
ROM is the stock Telstra (aust) android rom, latest update.
Worked on IMAP but it was slow retrieving emails.
with POP we have all sorts of problems.
why dont you try adding that account in the gmail app or use gmail activesync (google it for the settings)?
for the gmail app you can create labels which will take you straight to the account or account/label you want.
Or add your account to the email app using gmail active sync.
I use it the first way and it works like a charm.

does the app support custom domains?
ours isnt @gmail.com its @cscommunications.com.au but uses gmail servers
Yes it supports custom domains.
you can use default settings from the gmail app....
got the email on the gmail app and seems to be working okay.
Just left with the bloody calendar problem!
adding entry's on PC and syncing to phone works fine, they show up on phone, but editing or adding entry's on the phone will not sync the changes back to pc.
What do you guys recommend?
-Much Appreciated

Hi,
Since I upgraded to Jelly Bean, I can't get the stock calendar app to sync with my exchange account... It did work just fine with ICS 4.0.4 stock calendar, as well as with Touchdown. With JB, I have not been able to get it working with stock calendar... but it does work with Touchdown.
Under settings in the calendar stock app, I see the following entries:
- General settings
- my exchange account
- my gmail account
- About Calendar
When I click on the exchange account, it says " no calendar".
I thought it might have been an issue with the way I restored the account from TB. I restarted from scratch, same problem. Did several factory resets, same. Thought it could have been a bad flash, now I have flashed 4.1.1 and still the exact same problem...
I really don't see anymore what can be causing this. It is my only problem with JB which otherwise is just great...
Any suggestion on where the problem could come from?
Thank you.
Ah, strange. I just thought that I'd acticate "automatic push" mode, and guess what, my calendar items showed up in the stock calendar app...
I have always had my exchange account configured to manual (I want to decide when I see my work email) but this never did have an effect on calendar sync... Very strange.
I leave the topic here in case someone would have the same problem...
Thanks for that, been annoying me all day. Works a treat

Thanks for finding that solution. I tried several things last night and couldn't get it working. I was running ICS on my Rezound without that issue but I'm guessing it was due to Sense. I'm not a fan of automatic push but my exchange calendar is important.
two methods.
one: use exchang mail dirctly with out gmail.
then: use a google account and calender is automatically sync after that

I think that activating push was the way for the calendar to start syncing but then I went back to manual only for what I think is the email setting of Exchange account, and I have calendar syncing fine, while emails are fetched only when I explicitly ask. To me the activation of push was only a trigger, that I was able to undo later on...
That worked for me as well.

You're right had to activate push and there it is :good: thanks i was wondering what it didnt work no more.
setting to push worked for me too - seems really stupid, but it worked.
like others I don't like to have push on. Has anyone turned it off now and have new appointments show up?

Absolutly. This is what I did in the first place : Turn it on first, got the sync to work, then turn it off and voila, it works fine, as you expect.

My agenda is not syncing all items, strange ... It seems to be depending on the category. Before Jellybean all was fine, but now I am missing appointments from my corporate agenda, really strange. Anybody the same issue ? My phone has always been on push.

I've been helping my Dad with his T-Mobile Galaxy SII on AOKP JB Milestone, he's having the same issue right now with his Exchange Calendar not showing all appointments. Push has always been enabled. However it only shows random items from his Calendar, not all the items. I've wiped the device, reflashed, set up the Exchange account before the Google account, nothing seems to fix it. Only a few items from the Exchange Calendar show up.....
I've been searching on this issue it feels like forever now and your post is the closest I've found to the issue lol
Thanks for this! I was frustrated because the Google Calendar sync doesn't sync everything for some reason, but then I couldn't get the exchange calendar to sync. I switched to push, set up to display the calendar, and switched back to manual sync.
We'll see how it goes.
So I can also confirm the calendar continues to sync after setting sync back to manual.
I got a new calendar entry that synced and also edited another and those changes are also on my phone.
I still have problems to sync my exchange agenda with HTC desire HD, try all the suggestion meantion here.
Somebody a other suggestion.
I have no issues with ICS
Thanks

Nitrodesk Touchdown works fine with JB...

This bug was opened but closed as Unreproducable even though it is!
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=23173
Please go star this item and comment about how you can't get it to reproduce
1) add exchange account, but set sync to "manual"
2) go to Mail and download all your mail ("sync")
3) Go to Calendar and see that you can't add your Exhchange calendar as a possible calendar
4) go back and set your Exchange settings to "push"
5) go back to calendar and see your Exhange calendar has appeared
My hotmail and corporate accounts are not getting emails delivered to my 5X after a certain time today. Internet works on the phone, apps can get internet and I can go to websites in Chrome.
Tried rebooting and switched airplane mode on and off a few times.
Anyone else having these issues?
Edit: I went into accounts and hit sync all and it started working for some of the accounts. I should not have to manually sync the accounts, they have all all been getting push emails as they come in up until today.

Have you tried "outlook app" from google play store? Maybe it will help. I have this app installed, but for my Hotmail account, I didn't need "push" notification, so I set it to manual.
Hi,
I had problems with the GMAIL App not syncing my Hotmail account & also uploads to GDrive were not working about a week ago. I uninstalled recent updates and rebooted phone. All has worked fine since then. I have also allowed both apps to update and all is good.
If you're still having problems, give it a try
I've had issues with this. So have many others. Check out this issue here
