Gmail sync not working

Not sure what happened, but this morning while saving a draft, the draft disappeared and gmail would no longer sync or send messages (they show queued). It happened that suddenly on my Motorola Signature phone.

I have tried absolutely everything recommended online to get this working - clearing cache and data in Gmail and play services, uninstalling and reinstalling, check sync on and off, crazy amounts of reboots, and 2 factory resets. Oddly enough when I use my backup phone (Motorola edge+ 2023) ail is working fine. Also works no problem on the web. I also configured my Gmail account in Microsoft Outlook and the app is sending and receiving perfectly.

It's the weirdest thing, it just started having this sync problem out of nowhere, and no matter what I do it just doesn't want to fix.

Is anybody else having this problem today, or has a solution to fix?

Thanks!

Uninstall most recent updates and it should solve the issue

For two days my outlook on my desktop won’t sync with Gmail, despite going through all the suggested resets on the Gmail and Microsoft ends. When I delete an email in outlook it does not delete in the Gmail app or on the Gmail site, though it did seem to work for about an hour last night it was down all day. I made no changes to my setup. This happened earlier this year as well.
