Make sure you only check email, calendar, and contacts. Google Sync does not allow text messages or tasks, even though they show as options on the phone. With ActiveSync, if an unsupported option is checked, the entire sync fails.

should my email address be : user@gmail.com?
and my id be the same as well?
