Anyone having send/recieve issues with the gmail app?
I just tried sending a bunch of photos to a seperate account and recieved the message twice, but sending through the android email app over IMAP seems to send normally.
Can't for the life of me see what the problem is.
Hi, I just got my Magic a couple of days ago and I have noticed issues with google mail.
A couple of times now I have checked the mail through the google mail icon on my phone and it has shown Inbox (1) but just doesn't download the message to my phone.
I have tried sync'ing it but it just takes forever to come down. No issues with signal at the time so not really sure what is wrong. One time the email did turn up after I manually sync'ed about 5 times and the other time I logged onto my google mail via the browser rather then the app and read the email, (that email never did arrive on my phone!?)
Hopefully some kind email genius will come along and help us both ;0)
Well I've noticed after setting the email account up through the android app that gmail seems to sync properly now and notify about new mails, though I haven't gotten around to testing if the send is working properly or not on the gmail app.
Incidentally I also switched down to 2G to save battery, but I don't think that'd have an impact...
SO,
Just wondering... I was just looking on an EVO forum to see if anyone had started getting their 2.2 roll out and noticed a thread titled:
Gmail still not syncing reliably on EVO...
Post #4 suggests that gtalk triggers gmail syncing. Now I use a true gmail account so checkout etc... all work on my phone, but my primary email is a google apps account (mydomain.com). I have my primary gmail account set to not actually sync anything, and my apps account syncing all three options.
The whole Froyo single sign on/ attaching gtalk/gapps to the first gmail account and not allowing my apps account to log into talk seems like a valid reason that would cause my non (pure) gmail account to be pushing correctly.
Does this make sense, is there any validity to it?

edit: So, some testing. I disabled forwarding (in gmail web) for my [email protected] account and ENABLED gmail sync on that account.
Sending email to that account is pushing to my phone just fine. with or without gtalk signed in, and it's even working after I killed the gtalk app via systempanel.
I am NOT however getting pushed email to my secondary account (google apps) [email protected] google apps account.
Something weird is going on.
I'm surprised there hasn't been more on this.
I have 2 separate gmail accounts on my phone and it seems that I only get updates for emails that get sent to the primary gmail account (the first account that was used to set up the phone initally). Any mail that gets sent to the second account doesn't get updated until after I hit the 'Sync Now' button in the menu.
I just had a friend with an EVO on stock 2.1 update 1 test this. He also uses google apps, and actually only had his gmail setup on his phone.
He added his apps account, and set gmail to sync.
I sent him a test message and he got it right away. I know that my phone also worked correctly before going to 2.2. Now, in 2.1 for ME I used gtalk with my google apps ID, where as my friend has his setup with his gmail.com account (the way I'm forced to do in 2.2 right now).
Ok right now at 10:20pm my gmail is pushing instantly (at least for new mail) noticing that if I read the mail on the phone/PC the update is not making it back to the other very quickly. I read/deleted the test message about 3 minutes ago, and the phone still believes there's a new message there.
At first I thought it was because I am hom and on WIFI, however I disconnected, and sent another test. It's working the same on 3G.
I seriously noticed this tonight as I was sending myself a link to the how-to downgrade HBOOT so I could get rid of the OTA radio updat and go back to 2.1... hanging on a bit longer now I guess
Edit: Literally, as soon as I hit the post button, the icon disappeared on my phone so its slow but working
Hi
Before the latest update to my HTC Desire HD, I couldn't setup a hotmail account using exchange server. However, after the update, its seems to be fixed (maybe).
After setting up my hotmail account using exchange server, inbox keeps refreshing forever until I press stop/cancel or sometimes it says syncronisation key corrupt or invalid after some time.
When I open inbox again, it refreshes the whole inbox and not only retrieving new messages.
Does anyboyd have the same problem and maybe fixed it somehow? I would like to use my hotmail account using IMAP/Exchange so devices are syncronized
Hope someone have fix for the refreshing problem.
Youve got further than myself, i cant even add Hotmail exchange in the first place!
The stock 2.2 mail app works but doesnt update the widget to show how many unread emails are in the inbox.
What a pain.

If it works for you then I think you got it almost working
So with stock 2.2 adding a hotmail account using exchange server, works without any problems? And it does not keep refreshing when you open inbox folder?
is anyone else having trouble with multiple gmail accounts?
i get all my notifications instantly, like normal, for my first gmail account. but nothing gets pushed to my second one. if i go into the inbox and refresh it, then it works fine
but no push messages are getting through
i went like a week thinking i didnt get any email and i just happened to check it via the web and saw dozens of emails that my phone never synced
Check under settings>account & sync make sure the gmail box is tick for all account
ugh dammit now i feel dumb. i could have SWORN when i set up my accounts i checked gmail sync in there, but i guess i missed it haha
thanks
I don't know if I am missing a setting but many times I will have no email notification and there are new unread emails in the gmail app. I have exchange and gmail addresses setup and I think it happens with all of them or it is just the exchange emails.
I went into all the gmail email settings and selected notification for every email and not just once, the exchange emails do not have this option. I also have vibrate selected but I feel no vibration when they come in. I put the gmail app on priority notification but that didn't help.
I have a 5X also that worked perfectly up until the December update, then my email notifications broke on that phone. I ordered a 6P because I wanted to try it out and I did not accept the December update thinking that was the problem but the 6P has the same email notification issue.
Anyone else getting intermittent email notifications? Is there a setting I am missing or something? Could this be because of doze?
Thanks

I'm beginning to think that it's an Exchange Server 2010 issue...as I've noticed that all hosted Exchange providers are going to be migrating to an Outlook.com environment. If your Exchange Server provider is on 2010, they'll likely be migrating you over the next 3-6 months...
If you want this before that time, you'll need to move your Exchange email manually to Outlook.com and be responsible for your email backups.
I believe that the same holds true for corporate Exchange environments.

I'm also getting lack of notifications from the GMail app (official) and it's kind of annoying. Any Fix?
Count me in. Tried a clear cache in Gmail, tried phone wipe cache but no difference.
I've seen similar problems around. I have my gmail IMAP accounts and 3 POP accounts and none of them syncs. I have to manually refresh the gmail app.
I'm another user with the issue. stock gmail and not rooted.
No notifications, wonder if gmail is having issues.
It has to be something on Google's end. As of yesterday, I'm having the issue with both gmail and inbox. Tried clearing data, disabling & reenabling sync, etc.. My wife has been complaining about exchange issues since last week.
Check to make sure you have gmail syncing on in accounts under the phone settings. Also make sure you did not turn off notifications from the app manager.
I am experiencing this also. I think other google push notifications are flaky too. I know my Google Opinion Rewards app has stopped notifying me. I open the app and that is when I see surveys.

I am seeing this issue on both Nexus 6P and 5X, with both exchange accounts, and actual Gmail accounts
Another thing I find odd is this... I use Nova Launcher with unread counts. Nova will show me I have an unread message, but I never get notified from Inbox.

I too am having this issue, I was thinking it was an issue with Google Fi being that I noticed the issue about the time when they replaced my SIM card due to another issue. But now this sounds like it might be a bigger issue.
I just went into the mail app, then to my google account, I then disabled and re-enabled notifications and for the last half hour or so I have been receiving alerts for mail. can someone else test and see what your results are?
EDIT: I may have spoken too soon, I just received 2 emails and didn't receive alerts.
I am going to have to resort to using a third party email app, downloaded cloudmagic and setup my hotmail on it and notifications are working fine with that app. No gmail notification but when I open the Gmail app there is the new unread email. This is happening with exchange and gmail accounts.
Did a Google search and it appears this is a pretty wide spread issue with Nexus 6p and 5X owners.

I am a Moto X Pure owner and I've seen a couple MXPE users complaining about the same. So it's not device oriented, more a "stock" Android issue. At least as I haven't seen other device users having the same problem.
It's really frustrating as I have 4 e-mail accounts and I'm not used to checking them manually.
I went to Settings->Accounts and I disabled auto-sync, then re-enabled it. I got one mail on time after that, but at the time the screen was on. So can't be sure if it helped or not.
Same issues with devices running 6.0.1 but older devices running 5.1.1 have no issues at all. Gmail, IMAP, Nine all have delayed notification or no notifications unless I manually check and sync.
Here's a link to the to the issue tracker if anyone wants to star and comment to get this some more attention.

Just bought a new nexus 6p and set it all up. Using the default gmail app for all my accounts and I'm getting notifications for all other accounts except for gmail. It's strange. I get instant notifications for the same gmail account on my BlackBerry no issues. So it is an issue with the gmail app for Android. When can we expect a fix?

Mine has been good since disabling and re-enabling notifications under my account in the mail app, some messages seem to be delayed but I am getting alerts.
Open the mail app, open settings, select your email account, 3rd item down should be notifications and it should be turned on, touch it to turn it off, let it sit a few moments to register the change, touch it again to re-enable notifications. Repeat this for all email accounts (I also cleared the mail apps data in the main settings>apps menu) and I am working again.
please report back if this helped.

Cloudmagic seems to be the only app that has consistent notifications. Tried bluemail and typeapp and even those didn't work, cloudmagic is ok but it doesn't have the ability to swipe to the next email when inside a message.
same issue here. any news?
