Help GMail, Gchat not working

Newbie
Hey guys - had my Evo for about a year and a half (well, 2nd - had to have the first one replaced for screen/software errors).

Last week my GMail app stopped refreshing mail. I had 2 accounts linked to it, but I rarely used one so I removed the account from the phone. It still wasn't updating, so I tried clearing the data. Now every time I go into the GMail app it asks me to select the account (there is only one) and I get a black screen saying something to the effect of "Email will be available shortly." It's been almost a week and it refuses to sync with my GMail account.

Additionally, my Talk App (Gchat) won't open as of today. I click on it and the screen starts to change as if it is opening, but ity immediately goes back to the home screen of the phone.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Welcome.

Try this, delete all accounts (via Menu-Accounts & sync-then delete all accounts on the device), pull the battery restart then re-add the account(s) you wish to use.
