Help Gmail push failing?

Same here, stopped working yesterday morning.
So I took the drastic route.

1) Wiped phone (factory reset) Didn't fix it
2) Reloaded the 2.2 SBF, didn't fix it
3) Loaded apex , didn't fix it
4) loaded Tranq, didn't fix it
5) loaded fission, didn't fix it

each load was preceeded by a reload from SBF to get it back to factory spec.

Still having the issue today. Doesn't seem to be related to any ROM. So I'm guessing its on google's end.

My corporate activesync email is coming through ok, and hotmail/activesync is working ok as well. only gmail is not pushing out.

Just to cover all the bases, you didn't change your password at any point did you?
 
Baffling...I just tried another test email with an attachment from hotmail on my PC to gmail...it pushed to the phone immediately (3 seconds).

Sorry some of you are having problems...I just wonder why it's not all of us???
 
Hm. Are you using a task killer? I know you've wiped a few times, but I want to make sure you aren't restoring apps when you do so.
 
i dont think ive ever gotten a push email on my droid in 3 seconds. Now my BB, that was quick, it was on the BB before the gmail webpage pulled it up

Not using any task killers and have not restored/reinstalled any apps after the sbf reload.

My steps in testing:
1) SBF restore
2) Activate
3) Load ROM
4) configure gmail
5) test send/receive.
6) Configure corporate email and hotmail
7) test send/receive
8) boot into recovery, wipe cache
9) test gmail again
10) Get frustrated and want to throw X out the window.

Oh I forgot to mention, I've tested this both on 3G and via wifi. neither one makes any difference.
At first I thought it was the 3G service here, lately VZW's 3G here in Central CA has been averaging 50 kbps (yes kilobits). So I put it on my wifi (20mbps) but it still doesn't work.
 
yeah, my x has been giving me issues with syncing emails since yesterday too... i did a hard reset because i thought it was something else, but it still is doing it...
 
"Back up my data" and "automatic restore" under privacy in your settings. Are those checked when you're doing the wipes? There was a thread that said restores weren't as effective when those options were checked. It's a long shot, but that's really all I have left lol

I have them unchecked. I normally leave them checked, but I unchecked them to do troubleshooting.

It seems many people have experienced this issue since yesterday morning, so it sounds more to me like an issue on the gmail server side.
 
Just used one of my other email addresses to send a message to my gmail account, and it pushed to my phone in about 10-15 seconds.
 
Looks like its back to working, I haven't touched any settings on my phone today and I just now finally got an email notification. I tested it after that and sent myself an email and it worked again. So two emails in a row and worked perfectly. Hoping it stays this way.
 
i was having the same problem - Gmail stopped automatically PUSHING post-Froyo-update on BOTH of my Gmail accounts. the solution that worked for me is a HARD RESET. ERASE/WIPE your Android phone clean and then manually reinstall everything one by one. this is the only thing that permanently fixed the post-Froyo lack of Gmail PUSH for me. the Gmail clear cache data works but ONLY TEMPORARILY (~24 hours). it's now been 2+ weeks after my hard reset and both of my Gmail accounts now PUSH sync flawlessly. my guess is that when you update the OS version you need to start clean on the Gmail sync and the only way to do this is a HARD RESET.
