I got my Moto Droid on Nov. 6th with no problems until today.
This morning, the Gmail was not connecting through the Gmail app/widget, (I could still open browser and get to my Gmail that way). Hitting the Gmail widget brought up old emails and said I had 4 new messages, but would not load them, it said "NO CONNECTION, RETRY" and would not bring up the new messages, no matter how many time I tried to reconnect..
At noon, I took it back to the VZW store. The rep there, tried for an hour to fix it, no joy, he called his tech guy to see if he was missing anything, he wasn't. After another call to another tech guy, (another hour later) he says the Gmail app is a third party app. (Google, a third party app on a Google branded phone??, I don't get it, anyway) and Google would have to address the problem. So he put me on hold and attempted to contact Google, no luck (I guess they were out to lunch, as it was 2pm CST). Then he said what I wanted to hear, "You can swap out the phone at the store". Finally I thought I was about to get out of there.
The VZW rep swapped out the phone, transferred my contacts, and SD card and handed it to me to check out the Gmail, still no joy. And now my Yahoo mail didn't work. (We were loosing ground) I handed it back to him, after some more tinkering, new problem(s), no market, no browser, and no calls. So at 3pm I'm frustrated and hungry I say "I'll be back", I step over to the sub shop next door, get some lunch, and before I could eat, the VZW rep came over with my phone and asked me to try it out. Makes calls, check. Opens Browser, check. Opens Market, check. Opens Gmail,.... wait for it,..... check. Yes, finally. I was leaving happy.
But then, after I got back home, I tried to open Yahoo mail, no joy, it gives me "Username or password incorrect" even after changing the IMAP server to "imap.mail.yahoo.com", the Wi-Fi is off. I can load up other email accounts but not Yahoo.
So any help with this, without having to go back to the VZW store will be greatly appreciated.
