I cannot get my phone to vibrate for each new email in an email thread. It only vibrates on the first email. I have the box un-checked for "notify once" and my notifications box is checked and my vibrate box is checked. Everything with the phone is completely stock and I am using the stock GMail app. I like to think I am not retarded and do not think I have the incorrect boxes checked/unchecked. The phone gets the mail messages (and the LED lights up), but does not vibrate.
Here's a screenshot but the forum won't let me post it because I am a noob

I have all the email notification options unchecked, and I still get a notification of an email. This could be because I have the messaging option on the today screen on, so I see a line telling me how many emails I have, which is why I don't want notification. Using US T-Mobile MDA.
Anyone able to shut off notification of new emails?
I have a brand new Cingular 8125. I have it checking for email updates from 4 different (POP) accounts every 15 minutes. ROM Version 2.25.11.1 WWE (default). I have every possible Notification in 'Sounds and Notifications' to beep, ring, flash and vibrate when new emails, sms and mms come in. Text messages make a sound and vibrate. I can't for the life of me get the emails to notify me when they come in. I've tried Inbox open, Inbox Minimized and Inbox Closed.
Does anyone have any idea on this? I've searched this forum for a good answer to this question but I haven't been able to find what I'm looking for unfortunately.
Thanks!
On My Wizard if I go to Settings > Sounds and Notifications>Notifications I only get the option to add sounds to "Messaging: new email message" I don't get any other options for emails (Many more for other events). I'm not sure where you are seeing the options to add sounds for "Inbox open, Inbox Minimized and Inbox Closed."
I apologize for not really being that clear. What I meant was that I tested whether it would vibrate with the Inbox open on the screen, with the Inbox minimized and with the Inbox completely closed. What appears to have happened is, after setting those parameters in the Sounds and Notifications settings, the Wizard wouldn't start vibrating for emails until I Soft Reset it. Once I soft reset it later that afternoon, it appears to have worked fine.
Thanks!
this has been asked previously, but went unnoticed. has anyone figured out the way to wake up the device if you receive an email while in standby. i use hd tweak to enable wake up for sms, and to enable wifi on standby, but there's no point in that if the device doesn't wake up on new email.
I have the same problem with all the ROMs I've tried.
Never seem to get notification of new emails as and when my hotmail account is automatically checked as per set schedule.....
do you want the light to flash
if yes you should go to sounds& notifications and click on new email were it allows you to change tones display message on screen and flash when recieving a new email.
if i receive an email in standby, the sound plays, but LED doesnt flash, nor does the device wake up. i was hoping since it was made possible for sms, we can make it happen for email as well.
I'd like this too... I have trawled through google search and these forums but no luck yet....
Have you tried going to Settings > Sounds & Notifications > Event "Messaging: New e-mail message" and then selecting 'Display message on screen' & 'Flash lite for...' etc?

Yes, but that doesn't work either. Only the LED flashes, but the device doesn't wake up. The reason why I want it is that the LED doesn't flash if the device is being charged at the same time.
Hi all, copy and paste from Amon_RA's thread which I've posted in also. I'm running Amon_RA's 1.6.1 ROM and am wondering if the following happens to you as well? If it does, what ROM are you running? Is it donut-based? Thank you.
Some bugs/features in 1.6.1? I'm not too sure if it's intended to function this way in Donut, hence the bug/feature portion. I'm experiencing the following problem on 1.6.1, with email notification and vibration turned on:
Assuming I do not have any email notifications currently, and I have zero unread mail in my email. When I receive a new email (be it for one or two email at a time), my phone will vibrate and have the notification, as expected.
However, this is where things get different. If I were to ignore the notification (let it remain there) or clear the notification WITHOUT tapping on it and going into Gmail, any subsequent emails I receive will only result in having the LED blinking, and the number of unread count in the notifications bar will increase. The phone does not vibrate, neither does it ring.
If I were to tap on the notification and enter Gmail, then my phone will vibrate and notify me again. This happens regardless of whether I read the unread emails in Gmail, or let them remain unread.

Anyone?
Yup, I concur.
I just tested this. Received an email, cleared the notification. Then sent another email to myself from browser. My phone didn't vibrate and notify me, except with the green LED.
Cleared the notification by opening Gmail.
Then i re-sent the same email, notification & vibration is back again.
Wondered what's wrong, i've got a feeling that the flag is set wrongly too.
Ive posted this to Google already but have yet to receive a reply..
Whenever I get a new email, the phone will vibrate if i'm in vibrate mode, if i'm not in silent then it won't. I messed with the settings and I can't see to turn off vibrate completely...
