Hi again, OK, sorry, I totally overlooked that you said you were trying to setup gmail using exchange. Google has done away with exchange support and you will have to to use the proper "Gmail" account type. This will use IMAP for mail and where before iOS 7 you had to set up a separate CardDAV account for Google Contacts, you can now simply enable both mail and contacts and it will work.
If you want to know more about this, just google "exchange support for gmail" or something like that and you will find lots of information.

I just got my 5s setup with my Gmail account using the exchange option. And for some reason the mail does not work. It keeps saying connection to the server failed. I had this working fine on my 4s with the iOS 7 and stop working after I switched over to the 5s. Any guidance would be much appreciated. Cheers.
