Topic says it all. This just started happening today. I read online that clearing out the data for Google Apps and Gmail would fix this. No go.

Just did a factory reset, still fubared. Anyone else have this problem? Have a fix?

Thanks.
 
Also having this error - I have two gmail accounts and I think it is only 1 account that is having the error.

Correct, I have 2 accounts sync to my Samsung Vibrant and I have problem only on one of them. This issue occurred since last night for me and I've been going insane trying to figure out what suddenly happened. I reset to factory settings and even re-flashed to the original ROM; both unsuccessfully solved my problem. It has to come from the Google server where the account in question is located because I do encounter a lot of errors while synchronizing with the calendar and contacts as well.

Oh yeah, also my Gtalk that is linked to the defective account looses connection quite often. I don't know if anyone has noticed that...

I have archived the emails more than from Jul 29 but it has sorted it i think... Agree that it must be either Google error - or maybe some embedded photo's (that weren't showing as attachments)

Hope this helps anyone else.

I did the same thing on my Droid 2.1. Now I can sift through my inbox fine but as soon I look through my "All Mail" folder where the emails got archived, same problem exists.:thinking:

I think I may just create a whole new gmail account and just transfer all of my old emails from my existing account and hope that fixes the problem

Ive tried a few things today (including three factory resets). Still does not work. Strange that it just started happening today. Guess I will give Verizon a shout when I get a chance. Looks like a replacement may be in store for me I guess.

I did the same exact thing, went in to the verizon store and now they're gonna ship me a replacement phone.

But I'm almost completely sure this is a gmail problem and not a hardware issue. But I'm happy to be getting a new phone :)

Just wanted to say thanks to djkling15.

I ended up creating a new folder and moving all my mail there. No more force close in the inbox but when I go to all mail it still force closes. Not sure if I should create a new account for my phone, or just go back to Verizon to see if I can get a replacement.

p3ernie When you get your new phone if you could post your results here it would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Trooper,

Transferring my old emails to a new gmail account did not fix the problem. What I did instead was download GMAIL Backup here (which is an awesome program!!) I backed up all of my emails onto my hd, then deleted them all from my gmail account.

PITA, but it worked and now I have no more stupid error to drive me crazy! :D

p3ernie,

Thanks for the heads up. I may just give this a shot after all. I wish someone had an answer for why this is happening with our accounts.

Thanks!
