Gmail issues with sync - Epic 4G General

Can anyone help?
I got it to the point now where it constantly shows I have email when I don't. When I go online to gmail and clear out email then my gmail app shows correctly until I delete the next email. Its a if the app isn't sync correctly to gmail.

I have stopped using the Gmail app (got tired of the interface and such) and use K-9 mail instead. Most people don't realize that k-9 mail supports IMAP idle and so does Gmail so you still get push mail.

Tried k9 before, it was unreliable for hotmail and gmail.

Don't know where you get that from. Been using K-9 since day 1 on my Epic, with 5 different email accounts (Yahoo/AIM/Gmail/Hotmail/.Mac), 100% rock solid. Gmail and AIM use imap idle so they're next to push, the rest are set to poll every 2 hrs. Works solid.

slow email read

sometimes it seems to stalling while fetching email.. even with the stallfix.... with standard rom, anyone has this lag too?
Me too. That's why I don't use it for mail anymore until I can find ways to speed it up. I also have problem setting up yahoo mail. Anyone knows how to do it?
Use k9 app for mail. It is better.
For yahoo try yahoo mail app.

about yahoo mail, but I want a universal mailbox, where all my 7 email accounts can be read within the same inbox. I like K9 more than stock mail, but it's still too slow for me.
For information how do you use the mail app ?
Frequency of sync, number of days/week/month of mail synced, number of mail displayed in the inbox ...
thanks

[Q] Hotmail Calendar

How can I get my Hotmail calendar to sync with my shift? I use the Exchange ActiveSync account on my phone for my work email, but as a family we use Hotmail for our calendar. Any suggestions?
Not sure. If you search Microsofts site, it appears no direct syncing is supported. A workaround would be to link the calendar to your Google account so you can at least view it on your phone. Perhaps wait til WP7 hits Sprint?
Or move the family to Google. O_O

Tried exporting Hotmail calendar, but could not. Thus I could not import into Google calendar. Wife is not a fan of Google, so not so easy
I've never used exchange, but this says hotmail started using that and it will sync calendar/contacts/email... dunno if it is true, but worth a shot.

Switch the family to google, you will be happier in the end.

Yeah, almost all Android email problems can be fixed by switching to Gmail.

Looked at that link, but the phone will only allow one exchange activesync account which I need for my work email
Does this help? http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Calendar/thread?tid=1237b8532c40be62&hl=en

[Q] Push Yahoo mail

I just got my Motorola Atrix and I can't get push email from my yahoo account. I previously had an iphone and I loved the push email on it.
How can I get do the same with my Atrix??
If you made a gmail account, which you should, you gmails will be pushed. Have you gmail collect your yahoo emails.
what app are you using for yahoo mail? I have mine set using the accounts app, and my yahoo gets pushed to the default messaging app

Yes, if you download the yahoo mail app from market it will push no problem.

when you sign into hotmail from a pc does it state that you have any unread mails in your inbox or other folders?
why don't you set it up using exchange, that way your phone and hotmail will be in sync.. exchange server is m.hotmail.com
That my friend seems to have worked a treat, you are indeed a legend.
Thank you

No push email for Yahoo, Corporate accounts using Exchange.

Hi,
While my iphone picks up email as and when they arrive, the gs3 doesnt have a Premium account service like the s2 had and one has to set the email frequency for it to check email manually.
The built in email app does not offer push on yahoo mail and corporate email on exchange.
It also doesn't set up corporate exchange accounts using google apps.
It only supports push for @gmail.com (not corporate gmail accounts using @ whatever.com using m.google.com as the server) and @hotmail.com accounts supports push on the native email app
This should happen automatically for each account like it does on the iphone, windows mobile and HTC.
cool story...now what?
Can anybody else confirm the OP? I'm waiting on a blue S3 to show up, I haven't yet taken the plunge. No Push-mail is a big bummer...
Of course it doesn't check your email if you set it to "never" - that is what never means...
And for push you need to use exchange not IMAP...

I disagree, the s3 should have a feature called push or fetch, when u ask it to check email every 5 minutes that means it is being done manually not automatically this is not how the iphone or windows phone works, on imap on an iphone it downlads the email once the server receives it that is called push on. Windows phone it downloads it as and when email arrives. What you re talking about it a setting where u ask it to check the email every 5 or 10 minutes that is not push. This eats battery like hell. On the sg2 u could set a permium account and it had push email but sadly the s3 doesnt have push email, yes i know about exchange but without exchange also it should push email which it doesnt so thats ane pic fail for the s3.
What mail service are you all using? Push works fine for gmail, hotmail and any other corporate account.
Wait a bit for the next update, maybe it's included there.
Also pls change the thread name, because no push isn't true, it should be no push at imap.

K-9 is my preferred email client, solves the problem.

Samsung added the premium email service on the s2 which had true push email on imap. Thye havent added that on the s3 I wonder why.
I am going to have to sell this phone as it is useless for me.
The first few days i missed receiving some important emails on time and I had to manually refresh the emails and got them 6 hours late.
Epic fail Samsung, you have gone backwards!

Gmail, and ur corporate account should be set using active sync instead of IMAP. Or just use the native gmail app, coz that allows for labels and the all important bacon filter priority inbox.
Yahoo mail has its own app so u can download that

which account are u using??? push works perfectly for gmail/hotmial/corporate accounts for me..incase u see issues with gmail, configure it as exchange server with domain as 'm.google.com'. push gets enabled
Let me get this straight...
OP sets email refresh to "never", complains when no emails arrive.
Do i need to say anything else?

No No No... iPhone doesn't have the "real" push mail like BBs do. And in my case, my S3 notifies me about the mail as soon as it arrives
