Can someone write something up telling me the steps you took to get your gmail working on your phone?? I would really like to have my email forwarded to my phone and have not been able to accomplish this as of yet for some reason ha ha. Thanks
I haven't ever had an issue with setting gmail in wmob... it seems odd that you should have to go through all this, and I noticed that you said you couldn't even get it to fly with the app that was suggested.....

Are you able to actually log in over the web to your Gmail?

Also, because you are mentioning qutie a few things here,

are you trying to retrieve your gmail from your phone? or are you trying to forward your gmail to your phone? these are two different things...

Another question... do you have a true gmail address? xxxxx@gmail.com? or do you have an address that just has gmail as the backbone? I have a few like that and the set up is _slightly_ different....

Next up... are you trying to do it through activesync? so you have the contacts and calanders and push mail? or just through the email service?

Lastly, when you are setting up the "username" are you entering the full email address as the user name? xxxxx@gmail.com is the user name for gmail, not just the xxxx part.....

Sorry to ask so many questions, but so much could be going wrong it's best to narrow it down..
