Ok ... I've searched, nothing definitive.

I purchased my first Z10 launch week here in Canada and loved it. Setup with GMail via ActiveSync worked like a charm with Contacts bi-directionally syncing without issue. I sold it to a friend desperate for it on the cheap. That was a several weeks ago (4).

I'm back on Z10 full-time now and for the life of me I'm not getting any success having bi-directional sync working (GMail on ActiveSync nor on IMAP4); both with push enabled if available.


Previous Setup:
Gmail ActiveSync
Outlook.com 1.
outlook.com 2
(both outlook.com accounts setup as ActiveSync; albeit using m.hotmail.com as a server).

Today:
GMAIL IMAP (enabled on my account)
- everything enabled.
Failed.

Secure wipe and OS update completed.

Now:
GMail ActiveSync
Outlook ActiveSync (Outlook.com).

I've confirmed contacts are in Outlook.com for the correct account yet nothing in my Z10 on Rogers. WTF?! (Both WiFi & 3G/LTE have been tried).

Nevermind ....

it seems sync'ing works after a 24hr time period for Contacts (just like BBOS contacts is not a priority sync like Inbox/Sent items). Turning off Contacts for sync in my Outlook.com account, then closing Contacts BB10 app, then turning back on Contacts for sync seems to have done the trick.

I love troubleshooting.

Part of the issue is that Google has dropped EAS support for an non-Google Apps email accounts reported as 30-Jan. (Google drops Exchange ActiveSync. What does it mean for BlackBerry? | CrackBerry.com) So, for anyone using the free Gmail account, IMAP is the next best solution. There seems to be various levels of success among CB members. I believe most have success setting up Gmail email as IMAP; contacts as CardDAV; calendar as CalDAV. This works well for me. A few members have reported being able to set up via EAS still. It didn't work for me.
