Can't figure it out, worked fine up till a couple days ago. Gmail no longer syncs, I've done everything from clearing cache, data, deleting Google account, recently installed apps, etc. Still can't find the problem - any suggestions??

FWIW I did get sync back after deleting my Google account and adding back but only lasted for an hour or two...
 
have you tried doing factory reset? I had a problem with google sync in my galaxy tab. I mean i wanted to change my account and it wont accept my new account. how hard i tried it failed. but then i had no option, i made a backup of everything(files, pictures , videos etc) and did a factory restart. Then I added my new gmail account and everything was fine.

if you would like to try this option you could do it.

Thanks for the reply, but really not interested in a factory reset, too much effort. Will probably go for root if this doesn't resolve itself soon.

On another note (no pun intended) this morning I switched off wifi and everything synced, looks like I'm not getting notifications from anything over wifi. Also by everything I mean non-Google services like forum and news apps...

I now believe the problem is more wifi related than app related...
