Ok I am a newbie with this phone and android..... have had no problems, except everytime I get an email, it beeps, which wouldn't be a problem but at night or when I dont want it to. I have even put silent on it, ringtone under notifications on email settings.
I have set up yahoo as my main email on this phone. I had to turn OFF the phone last night because it wouldnt stop.
Thanks

i can't seem to find the setting where i can prevent the screen from turning on when i receive an email.
can someone point me in the right direction ?
mine doesn´t even turn on the screen and i haven´t change anything (gmail that is)
hmmm. i'm pretty sure that my screen didn't turn on until i upgraded to XWKE7. or perhaps i'm imagining that ...
just tried and with KE7 it did not turn on the screen (do we talk about the same ,gmail and not the email app)

I am also interested to prevent the screen turning on when receiving sms or email..it gets annoying especially during meetings where i put the phone on the table and the room is dark during presentations.

to stop the screen coming on for sms i've installed sms popup. you then switch off notifications in the standard sms app an let sms popup handle incoming sms messages and it has an option for leaving the screen off.
I've exactly the same problem, screen turning ON when receiving mail, exchange account!!!
Any solution????
sorry to bump this but has anyone got a solution ?
it's very annoying to receive an email and then find that my screen has turned on and then find that i've magically phoned someone, all while my phone is in my pocket. :-(
i'm surprised that there's not an option to stop the screen turning on ...
Bumping again - this is a major pain in the rump.
Like others, I have a feeling that this didn't happen before KE7.
bumping - had my phone for so long and only now after reading this thread noticed the issue
I have the same issue, though I am using NoLED with the lock screen.
So an email comes in, the phone screen flashes on and then the screen goes black with the email icon per NoLED settings. The flash on only happens with email and not with text messages or whatsapp notices.
This is weird indeed and I haven't been able to find a setting to solve this. This happens with the stock email app or the gmail app.
Does anyone else have an issue with this app whereby:
I have all of the notifications turned off but do have it set to push new email to the phone.
When i get a new email it flashes the notification light!!! Even though i have all of the notification alerts turned off.
I'm not sure will check next time and post back.
I noticed this before I rooted my phone and it is starting to bug me. I have already check roaming notifications and all are off. What happens is at random times I get a doorbell sound from my phone and the notification light blinks. No notification are displayed, no gmail, no email, no text message. Does anyone have a clue what is causing this notification, and if so how do I disable it?

Do you have Yahoo Mail installed? You can tell it to not put notification in the toolbar but it'll still make the sound and flash the notification light. It's default sound kind of sounds like a doorbell. For me that mail account gets a lot of junk so I don't want to be notified I have mail unless I manually check. Overall I hate that app and with my new EVO I just use HTC's email application.
I get the same thing and it happens when I go into roam, no matter what roaming notification settings I turn off. I posted this issue in other forums and haven't had any luck. My next step is to install stock ROM and see if maybe there's just something on the software side screwed up.

You are correct it was yahoo mail. I had turned off notifications but did not turn off sound. Thanks for your help.
Glad I could help. I had the same exact issue on my OG evo after Yahoo updated that app.
As of last few weeks, I do not have any gmail notifications in notification bar.
I looked around and found many have same issue and some say to go into gmail settings on phone and turn a bunch of notifications for this and that on. So I did. Everything is turned on, no notifications.
Phone DOES receive new emails, as when I go into any of my gmail accounts on the phone, inbox will say "3 new" or whatever the number of new messages is.
But none will show in notification bar.
Suggestions? I just spent 45 minutes digging this out online and fooling with accounts settings on my phone. Every one says notifications turned on, labels and all that new bs turned on, etc. Sync is of course tuned on. Good connection. I mean - EVERYTHING says it should work on the phone.
No notifications. Just had another email pop on PC screen for one of my emails, in Thunderbird - phone is silent.
Thank you.
Any apps or mods that might be blocking notifications? Are your other notifications working properly?
If you're using Priority Inbox, you have to enable notifications for all other tabs besides Inbox. I kinda don't think that's your problem based on your description, but FYI anyway.

I have an issue that keeps causing me to hit the emergency call button on my phone.. Every time I receive a text message my screen turns on. I've tried literally everything that I can think of. I tried turning off all notifications from the default sms and downloading go sms and disabling screen on, that didn't work. I tried freezing the sms app and using go sms, that didn't work. Finally I deleted all 3rd party apps and turned off all notifications for sms then had my wife send me a message, and my screen turned on with no sms notification but it's still turning on when I receive a sms. It's only when I receive sms that it happens. I have a ZTE grand x Max plus Rooted and ready to try anything that you guys have to offer. Amazing phone other than that little annoying "feature"
