Hi,
The following is very irritating to me and hopefully i'm not the only one.
I've installed 2 imap accounts and let them check every 5 mins.
Sounds are configured and working but...
When my device is off he gets his mail on schedule. But no notification.
No sound when my device is off. When I turn on my device it lits up in the bottom bar, an enveloppe appears in the top bar and last but not least my sound notification will ring.
Anybody an idea?
Hi,
I've also scheduled imap automatic check on several mailboxes and I do have a notification sound.
Have you checked the notification sound is enabled when going to parameters/sounds & notifications/notifications/new mail ? You have to enable it yourself since it's not the default behaviour.
Everything in Sounds and Notifications is checked and he does ring only when i turn on the device. Not when it's on stand by

Same problem other topic
Hi all
When I get new POP email, the notification sounds every 5 mins until I read it.... Is there any way to make it notify only once?
Thanks
Same problem here. Also when I got more than 1 email i get multiple notification sounds and is vibrating really long.
I find it quite annoying.
If its googlemail, open it up, press menu and then settings. Under notification's there are 2 options, 1 is about only one notification per message and the other is about how many times it will notify you
Hello everyone,
Whenever I get a new email in my Gmail box, my phone vibrates when in Vibrate Mode. But in Gmail options, I have vibration on new emails explicitly disabled. It seems the phone itself is overriding that setting. How can I get this to stop?
I don't want all vibrations in Vibrate Mode disabled though. I would still like my phone to vibrate for incoming text messages, but not for emails.

To my knowledge, what vibrate mode does is take all audible notifications and make them vibrate. That being said, if you have any notification on for your gmail, it will then vibrate when you get an email.

Hmm, makes sense I suppose, though it's not the best way to handle the scenario. If you have vibration for a notification specifically turned off, then the phone shouldn't take it upon itself to add a vibration to it just because the phone is in Vibrate Mode. I guess I'm just used to the more intelligent way Cyanogenmod does it where it provides an option to turn off vibration during a notification if has already been turned off in the app itself.
I am waiting VERY patiently for Cyanogenmod nightlies for this phone...
Yeah, well it's just over 3 weeks until this phone will be liberated as it should have been released originally! Until then, you could try playing around with a 3rd party app for sounds, etc. I don't have any to suggest unfortunately, because I don't use them, but it's just a thought.
What mcmb03 states seems true and definitely applying in Gmail app's case. I can only get it to stop vibration notification (when phone is set to vibrate mode) if I completely turn off the (or uncheck) Label notifications from my Gmail account settings.
Bug?
Either way, I sent feedback via the "Send feedback" option within the app. Fingers crossed I'm not the only one who has reported this "issue" to them and they will correct the Vibrate check function to override device/system setting.

I have my Gmail inbox set to the settings shown in my screenshot. I tested to confirm for you, these settings - mine does not vibrate when phone is in vibrate mode because it is unchecked.
Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling the Gmail app?
Well, I somewhat lied. I received upwards of 15 emails when in vibrate mode with "vibrate" unchecked and it did not vibrate. However, I have just received a couple shortly after posting and my phone DID vibrate... Odd...
EDIT: The emails to my Gmail app i received while my phone was in Vibrate mode with the vibrate feature DISABLED, those emails were sent to me with high priority, they were not a regular email. Just a note. Still weird.
I keep my phone on vibrate but iv set the notifications for the Outlook app to silent(meaning i dont want notifications) but everytime i get an email my phone vibrates. what do i do to change this?
Is there a setting to change the phone so it vibrates when receiving text notifications instead of having a message or notification tone? I've found the message tone and notification tone sections, but haven't located where to make it just vibrate instead. My Moto X Pure had this function, seems like a simple thing.
