[Q] Email At A Crawl - Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My Verizon Galaxy Note 4 is really great with this one exception.
When I open the app it takes a minimum of 16 seconds to load. Clicking a message takes a couple seconds to load. When I swipe to delete it disappears, then comes back, but if I click on it, it disappears again. I have 2 accounts, and about 2k unread messages.
The mobile data usage for exchange says .30gb, and 3.0gb for wifi, which seems super high since I've only had this since Friday afternoon, so 5 full days.
This phone is amazing, but this is making it unusable. Any help would be really great

I have the same problem, I have 2 exchange accounts and my email client is very slow to respond
Does anyone have any ideas how we can fix this ?
I have only a few emails in my inboxes and don't sync any other mail folders so my cache for mail isn't massive
Thanks in advance for any assistance

I've just checked and my app "email" has stored data of .97gb.
Is this a lot and is this causing the slow down ?

Friend of mine has problem with email and text on two not Samsung Verizon phones. It could be a carrier problem.

Serious GMAIL help.

Hey guys,
I hope i can get some user insight on this. I have found this to be very odd and confusing in my gmail for quite some time.
My gmail app in my nexus s shows that some unread mail is in the INBOX. eg:Inbox(2)
when i click in it, it doesnt show it. However when i go to labels, ALL MAIL the unread items are in there.
Why wouldnt they show the item in Inbox and i have to dig through labels to find it?
also ive noticed in wifi and sometimes in 3g/2g, sending mail gets hung up and never attempts to resend email, i inspected my outbox and show 5 emails i thought i sent out like a month ago! still showing 'sending...' in read, which is extremely dissapointing because they were important!
im slowly boiling over between these two situations and would GREATLY appreciate it if someone can help...somehow. I heavily rely on email and im so thrown off by this
Many thanks!
My best guess is that the unread emails are older emails. E.g., the GMail app only fetches the first 25 emails, but the unread emails are no. 57 and 63. So, you have so scroll down to load more messages to view these unread emails.
I really wish the GMail app had a setting to show only unread emails.
Is this just ur gmail app? Did u try clearing data via settings?

You may have your gmail setup to only show your priority inbox instead of the regular inbox. I ran into that same problem before.

[Q] Email tom-foolery...

So the (I guess) default 'email' is bugging me and I can't get rid of it's notifications. I use strictly gmail, and whenever I get an email, the other 'email' app goes off. It is the stock app, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to make it stop double notifying me with it's horribly ugly interface.
HALP PLS.

Just turn off the notifications in the stock e-mail app mate.

I looked again, can't find a setting FOR notifications in the settings. It's just about how emails are viewed.
Is there a separate bigger email setting I should be looking at?
Bump
Open stock email app.
Menu
Settings
Manage accounts
Select account
Uncheck email notifications.
If you have more than one account (which you dont) you need to do this for each email account.

Do you have Gmail account in the stock email handler.
If so remove it so the Gmail app or widget is the only one tied to the account.

Facebook notifications not working

Facebook push notifications aren't coming through on my phone only on my Facebook account, if I login on another account they work fine. I've tried to logout, login, reinstall facebook, clear data/cache, turned off platforms, turned off and on notifications, restarted my phone several times, cleared all online sessions. What do, halp plz
Only on your account?
are you running OOS? if so try disabling and enabling notification access in Privacy settings.(I guess)
I'm on SGS5 and I know this isn't the thread for my phone, but I'm at my wits end and want a solution. I'm sure it's not the phone, but the Facebook account itself.
The deactivate/reactivate didn't work for me on my main account that isn't getting push notifications. Funny thing is I wanted to see if it was just the app or the account, so I made a new Facebook account to test the push notifications on that. Push notifications for the app work with the test account, but not with my daily main account (same phone, same app on phone). I have tried everything under the sun. I've tried the BB thing, turned platform thing off, uninstall/reinstall, cleared cache and data, removed every attached app, literally everything I can think of and/or find online. I think something is not allowing my main account to receive push notifications, like they're being sent to an old phone (which there is no other devices logged in) or some chrome extension or app/program I attached to my Facebook has ****ed it all up. I haven't had push notifications in probably probably 3 years, on my SGS2 and nothing on my SGS5 I got 2 years ago... Sorry for ranting, but I just wish it would work. Do you think my main Facebook account is attached to a very Old Android Device ID?

Mine started working again out of nowhere. I didn't do anything I just left it like that and one day I woke up and I had facebook notifications. It is probably a problem with Facebook itself, the only option is probably to wait it out

Facebook application is kind of headache. It didn't accept previous version of Oxygen OS. They finally worked it out. It is application's problem. Try installing previous versions. It should work in that way.

It's not the app, it's the account. I know this because I created a new account and tested the push notifications on that account. The push notifications work on the test account, but not my main account. Same app, phone and settings throughout Facebook. One thing I did notice was on the test account, the Facebook ID (example: [email protected]) is greyed out under primary account with my email selected as primary. Where as on my main account, it's just my email under primary.

I have the exact same problem as you, I've also tried everything and nothing has worked, and I did the same experiment with another account and the push notifications worked with that other account, but nothing with mine.
I'm honestly very frustrated 'cause I can't find the reason for all this and no one seems to know what's causing it. I'm thinking that it may have something to do with some extension I installed in the past or something like that, but I really have no idea, I'm going nuts over this, specially when other people say they were able to solve it by doing this or that, but I've also done this and that and nothing works.

I think it was a Chrome Extension as well. I believe it started happening when I started using a Facebook Chrome extension. I believe it was this one, but I can't sign out of it anymore. https://chrome.google.com/webstore/...ome/gdalhedleemkkdjddjgfjmcnbpejpapp?hl=en-US

Reinstalling or uninstalling the Extension fixed the push notifications for your acct? I uninstalled the extension a LONG time ago, and cleared all connected apps and what not. I remember the old version had you actually connect it to your Facebook by signing in, but I could never "sign-out" and I did uninstall and the notifications never came back. The options page is just blank when I go to it > chrome-extension://gdalhedleemkkdjddjgfjmcnbpejpapp/options.html

Good to know. :good:
What had to happen is you gotta wait 10 minutes exactly before trying to login. So login, get the error, wait exactly 10 minutes(600 seconds) and login again. I did this not 20 minutes ago because I kept going back and forth between Facebook apps trying stuff.
Temporary issue

Mail app like HTC Sense mail

I've seen some talk around this forum about porting Sense apps into the OP2. That would be great. But in the meantime, being a former HTC guy myself and a lover of the Sense UI, I used the HTC Mail app for my work email which is exchange and also for my personal email which a pop account from my ISP. The HTC Mail app allows for multi folder syncing when setting up the account. But it's not the kind of syncing that just lets you pick any folder you want from your Exchange account. It actually syncs the many different folders and displays all the messages in the main display as well as the POP account. So far I haven't been able to find a third party mail app that will sync with Exchange like this. I have been able to install the HTC mail app but it does not allow for the creation of the Exchange account with that app, only through GMail.
If anyone can make any since of this, I'd appreciate some input/help.
Thanks!
I recently discovered the mail app CloudMagic, it's perfect, at least for me. It allows you to:
- Get instant notifications (I.E. no sync intervals).
- Have separate mailbox for other accounts (I'm using iCloud and Gmail) as well as an "All inboxes" option.
- Manage the folders you wish to sync from each account.
I know it has support for all types of accounts (including Exchange).
Hopefully I'm on the right track.
You don't need a whole new Rom for a couple HTC Apps and the Sense Launcher. In fact you don't even need Root.
Install the HTC Apk's from here: http://www.fulmics.com/htc-sense/
But dont forget first of all you need to install these Apps: HtcServicePack , LocationPicker and HtcLocationServicesSetting

Thanks. I have flashed some of these. There is just a couple of nuances that don't get transferred. Like the exchange account from the mail app doesn't work and I have to use IMAP email instead.
