Ok, so why exactly can't I get a Gmail Counter to show on my stock Note 3 screen? Is it that hard to do?

Chrome and Gmail crashing topic

So I have a blacked out chrome and Gmail installed and they both worked fine up till today. They won't open and just keep crashing. I flashed rom again twice after doing factory reset and wiping internal memory. After I rebooted the first thing I did was install blacked out chrome before anything else and it still crashed. If I install from market they work fine. I tried to clear data in app and it would still crash. I know enough about roms and flashing and how to do everything else with a tablet, so I'm not sure what the problem can be. Has anyone else have this happen to them? I also have both apps on s4 and they work fine. I just redid my whole tablet and the blackout ones just won't work. Does anyone have any ideas why they would crash now? Thanks
I was reading something that Google was changing some stuff around so the government can't spy on your stuff. Do you think they could have changed something on there servers so because I have modded ones maybe like the server knows so that's why they keep crashing?

Gmail App with format option topic

Hi everyone,

I opened a website on my Nexus 5 today, selected everything (select all) and then sent it to my work email. I was expecting text only to arrive on my work Outlook however to my pleasant surprised email contained full formatting (as far as I can tell) including pictures between paragraphs.

That means Gmail app supports (send and receive) formatting (i.e. Bold, Italic, font, font size, etc). Don’t think this is any type of phone dependency.

My questing and request is, would it be possible for someone to modify Gmail app and add formatting option?

If I knew anything about developing I would have done this myself, unfortunately I don’t.

Thank you,

Issue with SW2, Gmail and 4.3 (Sony response) topic

I had been using the stock SW2 Gmail extension as my mail email "go-to" app when I first got my SW2 when I was still running a custom 4.1.2 ROM (BoneStock 3.4) on my rooted GS3. It was a sorta convoluted process, since I had my Comcast email go to my Gmail account, and then I was able to ead all emails via the Gmail extension. After a while I changed the ROM on my GS3 to a TW4.3 ROM (MOAR 7.1), in part to work better with WatchIt (I was having difficulties getting WatchIt to work with my 4.1.2 ROM).

The good news was WatchiIt was working fine with 4.3, but the ad new was the SW2 was now no longer able to work with the Gmail extension. I would try to use the Gmail extension (install Gmail extension, add my Gmail account to my phone as directed, go to my watch and press Gmail icon, I get an error message that says: "Unfortunately Gmail - Smart Extras tm has stopped. You can report it (which I did, it sends a message to Google) or you can clicjk OK." After you click OK, the same error message reappears. I then uninstalled the extension.

So to make it read emails, I installed K9 on my phone, and then had K9 read my Gmail email. Then have the K9 extension read the emails on my watch. What was a convoluted route became even more convoluted: Comcast, to Gmail, to K9, to the K9 extension. All because (1) Sony is trying to get SW2 watch customers to buy Sony phones by having the stock email extension on SW2 only work with Sony phones (and thus,eliminate the most direct way of reading email on the SW2) and (2) the Gmail extension doesn't work with 4.3 (at least my 4.3 phone).

So I posted the question on the Sony consumer customer support community age. A few community members offered up suggestions (uninstall/reinstall extension, go to SUS to make sure I am on latest firmware/SW, etc) all without any improvement.

I then emailed Sony support. And after a request for me to resend them an email describing the prolem, I received this answer:

hank you for contacting Sony Xperia Support.

[Q] Gmail - Out of date sync that won't update topic

I'm on CM 4.4.2 and I've had this issue a few times now. My Google account syncs properly except for Gmail which is "stuck" in an out of date sync. No matter what I do, Gmail refuses to update itself. This results in not getting new mail notifications, and not being able to see any new email since the last sync.

Things I've tried:

• Rebooting
  Clearing Gmail cache
  Clearing Gmail app data + cache
  Forcing a resync in Settings > accounts

This is what it looks like, you can see here 1 minute before the screenshot I forced a resync of my Google account, everything updates fine except for Gmail which is stuck on 2014-01-20.



After clearing app data + cache, Gmail is stuck on this screen:



The only way to workaround the issue is to remove my entire Google account and set it back up again on the device. This is not ideal, and the issue comes back at some point again.

Of course, i can manually select to add to gmail account, but having to do this every single time is annoying.

Thanks.
