Every now and then when I'm listening to Podcasts/music the media volume drops to nothing. This is real annoying if I'm riding my motorbike for example.
I think I've tracked it down to K9 mail sync. Just one of the accounts though, seems to turn off media volume. I've check settings and I don't think this account is any different to any other 3 accounts.
Anyone know why it might do this?
Thanks.

Hi,
Is anyone else experiencing this? I have an Exchange and IMAP accounts set up.
Occasionally my phone will make the email notification sound, then a few seconds later do it again. I only have new email in one of the accounts, and they are both set up for 5 minute polling.
Thanks
I've got multiple email accounts on my hd2 and a gmail account set up through exchange, so it uses the outlook account on the phone, is there anyway i can just set up an audio alert for that account rather than having it go off for every single account on the phone. I've gone through sounds & notifications but it sets it up for every email that comes through.

You've never been able to that on windows mobile as for as I know. Maybe there is a third party app out there maybe?
that's a little annoying, i've not been able to find any third party apps yet, does anyone else know of any or any registry hacks that might work.
Hey all, I'm lost on this, maybe I cannot find the feature.
How do you schedule syncing? I can go into settings-accounts & sync, but I don't see anyway to set it up to lets say automatically sync ever hour or every 2 hours.
I'll use my gmail accounts as an example. How can I get them to sync on a schedule, not when the phone itself wants to sync them. Thanks!
Yeah I think I'm a moron becasue I coudn't find the sync buttons anywhere. In my G1 it was pretty easy to find, but not on this phone.
Think button is in accounts, scheduling does not exist here. I think this feature is in droid x
If you go to accounts and do a long touch on your selected account the settings for it will appear. Within this you can change the frequency that your email syncs.
Gmail syncs automatically and its push, that means as soon as you get an email the phone will download it, there is no time to set.
the other accounts (via email app) you can just press the menu button and go to settings when you are in the account and tell it how often you want it to check (5, 10, 15 mintues, etc)

Im pretty sure Gmail does not have "push". Unless they changed it in TouchWiz, Gmail never had push notifications. I use "Tasker" to schedule my syncing every morning at 4am.
I am not sure how long it's been, but it's been a while. I had a blackberry and HD2 and if you use their Gmail app instead of the email app native from the phone, it will be push and that is why there is no setting where you can change how frequent you want it to check. I can send myself an email from my work to my gmail and my phone will alert me whithin 5 seconds no matter how often I send the email... so it is push
Apologies up front if this has been addressed, but I couldn't find a answer.
My wife has a Samsung Fascinate (stock). I've set up, using the stock e-mail client, her hotmail account. After setting this up, everything seems to sync ok (contacts, e-mail) initially, then continues to work for the next few days. For some reason that I have yet to figure out, the sync simply stops working. She usually complains after a day or two that she hasn't gotten any e-mail on her phone, although she can see it on her PC.
Anyone else run into this? It's not a Windows Live 'Pro' account, but the fact that I can initially sync makes me think such an account is not needed.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
I would like to know if there is any way to set peak hours when retrieving email?
My work exchange emails are syncing during the night (Schedule set to check every hour) and it is waking me up when a new email comes in. I don't want to put the phone on silent in case I get an important call I just want to stop emails syncing during certain hours.
Any Help Please Would be Greatly Appreciated
Hmmm... you're not using Exchange email "push"...
I'll be honest, I find this a bit flakey on all of my devices. I disable account synchronisation for my email, but some stuff will still come through.
Another way is to disable the notification for your email (chose "silent" ringtone) - like that your phone will still ring but your emails will be silent,
I dunno if there's an app on the market that will automate it...
*edit*
Check out Silencr
If you can use a program called TouchDown for Exchange. By far the best email app out there. It has a Peak Hours feature and is exactly what your looking for.
Or maybe you can port from TouchWiz email which already has that feature.
