Gmail Vibrating on Notifications. - Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Gmail refuses not to vibrate when I receive an e-mail. Maybe I'm overlooking something but I've definitely set it to 'never' under settings but it still does it. Rather annoying.
Updated my Galaxy Nexus to 4.2 and I have the same issue. Is anyone else having this problem?

Yes, I'm having the same issue. Updated to 4.2 and can't get Gmail to stop vibrating when I get an email. Even tried disabling messaging vibration in case somehow those two were mingling, no luck.
Would love to hear if this is ROM or 4.2 specific, or if other people are having this issue.

Good to hear I'm not alone. I'm fairly certain it's either this new Gmail app or something to do with 4.2...

Hopefully we'll see some movement on this in the next week or so... if not I'm going to reflash and see if that fixes this, which is most often does.

Same issue here. I have a custom 4.2 ROM flashed with this problem. I even tried reverting back to stock and reflashing. That did not solve the problem.

Phone Calls

Is it my phone or what
when i get a call I feel the vibration and hear the ring tone about 4 to 5 seconds before the screen turns on so I could answer
Do they plan on doing anything about this?
You guys dont happen to have SMS popup installed??
I am having the same issue but don't have SMS popup. I do however have dxTop, Missed Call, a rooted phone, and my apps on my SD card. I noticed it some time after I got the last Missed Call update (when they changed the logo) and added dxTop. Do any of you have a similar setup? Maybe we can figure this thing out.
I don't have any of those apps installed and am experiencing the same problem.
I do have K9 and I get a wait/force close periodically.
I do have caller lookup installed though (because it's apparently very important that I don't let my factory warranty on my truck expire).
I'm using JFRC33 1.42 but I can't say that it didn't happen with previous firmwares, it just seems to be happening more often now. It hasn't happened in a few days though.
It really does seem like there's a combination of factors that cause the problem, I just haven't been able to notice the pattern yet.
I have not done a wipe either.

Hmmm... I have JFRC33 1.42 as well with the updated radio (1.22.14.11) and K-9 Mail which I too am having numerous force close issues. Maybe K9 is the culprit? Anyone else have K-9 as well?
I have the same issue and just got to the point where I had to remove my 8GB sd with apps to ext2, wipe and now I only have pretty much the stock apps, stock messaging, no sms pop up, 1GB sd with jfv1.42_RC33_MOD
just did it last night to see if it works fine now.
I'll post it as soon as I found out whether it works or not
so far the problem is GONE! the phone ring right away, shows the caller info as should be yeeeh!! am testing right now installing custom ringtones and missed call app, running missed call app is causing the phone to ring only twice and goes to VM right away, rebooted and everything is normal but no doubt that missed call is causing some unwanted actions in the phone,

how many apps you have? are you rooted? apps in the sd? lets find out how far can we go to resolve this.. I think is related to the amount of apps and the notification apps running, I don't have K9 tho..

Nexus one - no outgoing sms?

Am I alone in this problem? I've read through the forums, and I don't see anything about it.
Here's what happens: I'm going along my merry way, receiving text messages, when all of a sudden, every text I try and send fails. Everything else works fine. But NO outgoing sms. If I try and reset the radio by going into airplane mode, it will get stuck trying to go into airplane mode and I have to reset.
The sad part is, I'm running a stock rom, and I've only gone so far as to unlock the bootloader.
Any ideas?
Also, I should mention that while this happens, I can still receive sms. Usually to the tune of "hello???", "why aren't you answering me???"

This used to happen to me all the time and it was always annoying the hell out of me. It sill happens once in a while but not as much as it used to. To solve my issue I updated to newest radio and the latest cyan mod. It might just be the T-Mobile network bugging out. I don't k know for sure. Hope this helps somewhat.
I'll try the new radio. But man does it piss me off. It didn't happen too often, but it happened 3 times lastnight alone. Making me want to do something about it.
I'll try the radio today and see how it goes.
I have this problem every now and then, simply have to restart the phone, nothing else solves it!
this used to happen on my g1. it would continue to fail at sending texts until i reboot the phone. and i remember it happening on my nexus but not it seems it has not happend since i updated to the newest radio and CM5.
I am having this exact same issue and its really disappointing since I really love this phone I haven't rooted and just running the stock firmware and I am on Rogers Network in Canada... could it a few defective phones? anyone have any more info or fixes other then reboot and rooting?
I have since switched to modaco's desire rom and everything is working much better now. I'm even using the google mms.apk for my text messaging(i don't like the htc one), and everything works fine. I haven't had it happen yet, and I've been using this rom for weeks now.
If anybody is having this issue, I suggest you try it. The modaco rom is nearly flawless.

I second, apparently instead of addressing the nexus issues Google is working onthe next major update so hopefully that will come with fixes for all of the bugs, exciting things are coming...

[ROM1.66 Dutch] Sms problem

Hey guys,
Despite the fact that I have installed this latest rom (1.66), I'm still having the sms problem. They dont get stuck or anything, they just never arrive, and this happens alot, which is really frustrating.
Since no one is still complaining about it, I'm wondering if the problem only hasn't been fixed in the dutch release of this rom.
I did notice, theres also a minor sms update, which says its for 1.66 and lower. But this update has been released before the rom was released.
I'm not sure if this will fix my problem, and since it can't be uninstalled, I'd like to know your experiences with this.
Thanks
Bump, anyone? This bug is annoying the hell out of me.

Not saying that it isn't the device, but have you tried another phone to see if they arrive on that?
I had similar issues with my old Nokia E90, and it turned out to be a network issue (they had to remove a corrupt message from the server)

Yes, I have tried my old Nokia N95 also, which went well. Messages just sometimes do, and sometimes dont arrive. Resetting doesn't change anything, neither does it make not-yet-sent messages, be sent.
Steef have you solved your issue already?I had this issue on rom 1.48 dutch as well, after x applying the htc fix it happens rarely now.very annoying that htc does not seem to be able to fix this issue.
since my sent sms would be sent if I soft reset my device if the problem appears, I guess your problem may be of different cause. I have read that a hard reset fixes the problem for some people.
I would like to know when and how you fix your issue...

Blank Call Answer Screen

Every once in a while for the past month or two, when I receive a call, my X10 will vibrate and ring as normal, but the screen will be blank rather than presenting the caller ID and call answer buttons. Sometimes when this happens, it'll eventually show up, while other times I simply get a FC message regarding the phone app.
In the time since I first experienced this, I have upgraded my stock 014 firmware to 016 through SEUS via Rogers, and then this past weekend I rooted the phone to R2BA023, and yet it still happens.
I have disabled both Facebook and Twitter sync in the settings panel, and have tried changing my ringtone all to no avail.
Has anyone else experienced something similar, and maybe know what may be causing this?
I'm going to attempt some testing with various 3rd-party apps uninstalled, to see if it may be some sort of conflict, but I find it odd this has persisted through firmware updates and complete OS re-install (root).
Hi - Yes I've had this happen too.. not very often, but seems to be when I'm in the middle of doing something else.. Think it was when I was in Handscent SMS when it happened today.
Same it happen to me, i just beat on it until it blink up the damn slide. Which 9 out of 10, i will miss the call thanks to the stupid slide still being as slow as before the update.
OT (so apologies)... my swipe is super fast since the update... Are you running any task killers or anything.. (I'm not...)..

I generally do, but it still pisses me off. I have a feeling it's just SE's version of the phone app, but I can't be sure.
I'm using Phonebook 2.0 as an alternate contact manager, but calls still come through the default phone app, and I'm not sure if there's a way to change that without a custom ROM.

Yeah have noticed this issue sometimes. I am on generic R2BA020 uk firmware.
When the phone rings, the screen lights up but I cant answer cause the screen is a Blank blue screen for like 5-8 seconds. After which the slider pops up allowing me to answer. Never had this problem on the older firmware.
I dont use a task killer or handcent.

G2 stopped auto syncing Gmail?

And iv checked everything, sync is enabled everywhere. If I turn off sync and turn it on again, whatever is waiting comes through, but then never again. I even just did a factory reset and flashed the new update, and its still broken, before and after update. WTH could cause Gmail to stop syncing that a factory reset wont fix?????
even i am facing the same problem since this morning....gmail wont auto sync!! i have to refresh it manually.
Another thing i noticed is that i cant find the visual voicemail app in the market...does anyone have the apk for it?
wow im glad to here its not just me, i missed about 2 days worth of emails (I should have known...no way i could actually go 2 days with out some bs from work) before i realized it
Me as well. I haven't updated my phone yet.. so I don't think it's the ota causing the issue. I've missed numerous emails since yesterday.
Glad its not just me, I wonder if Gmail is borked for everyone at the moment? Im surprised we're not hearing more about this....
ive done everything but a factory reset, i have not had gmail sync since about 12pm MST
try going into settings/applications and find gmail and click it. clear the cache first and see if it works, otherwise clear data... it'll resync from scratch. this happens randomly and this usually fixes it.

ive been doing that about once an hour, still nothing.
I did both of those things multiple times, they didnt help. Then I did a factory reset, that also did nothing. I feel like if a factory reset doesn't help the problem is probably on google's end.
Mine has been doing this since yesterday (before OTA) and has been doing it today as well (since OTA).
I had to load the shipping ROM due to deleting Google Goggles before the OTA. So I doubt if a factory reset or anything will help the situation. I'm not getting automatic syncing of Gmail at all. I believe its something on Google's end. Hopefully it gets sorted out soon.

I've updated with the OTA and my gmail is syncing, so I doubt it's the update that's causing the issue. I did have this happen to me before when gmail stopped syncing, but all I had to do was to go back to "settings" -> "accounts & sync" and turn on auto-sync for gmail again.
I am only getting my gmail via manually choosing refresh. Also, deleting on the phone will not delete on my computer. Annoying. This has happened before, and seems to get resolved in a couple of days.
Seems to be an issue with other Android handsets as well.
I have a link, from Google Support forum, but since I'm a new user here, it will not allow me to submit the link.
Seems like Google is working on a fix though.
Well, that makes me feel a little bit better.
I noticed yesterday it wasn't syncing, so I followed the normal clearing of cache and data, and checked all the syncing settings.
It definitely has to be an issue on the other end for everyone to be having this problem at the same time.
same here. I thought the G2 update messed up the Gmail sync, but then I realized that my Nexus One was doing the same thing as well which I use as a tablet from time to time via wifi. Let's be patient and have Google work the issue, just a matter of time.
Easy fix
Go to settings and disable auto sync
Then turn off phone
Turn phone back on
Go to settings and enable auto sync
This fixed my issue after installing the updated OTA

Tried dilfatx's fix to no avail. Hopefully Google fixes this up quickly.
You are correct.. it worked for me for few hours.. tested it out.. now its not sync again.. this is a whole other issue..
Sent from my T-Mobile G2 using XDA App
Android central is reporting some issues with Google and sync e-mail accounts. Apparently Google is already hard work resolving the issue.
IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE OTA UPDATE!!!!
