Might be something simple I'm missing - but is there a way to automatically dismiss email notifications? For example:
I'm using Enhanced Email - Combined inbox. I have a couple email accounts (exchange + gmail). Let's say I get an email in both accounts at the same time. If I tap a notification for gmail, it takes me to the EE combined inbox. I then deal with both messages. The annoying thing is the notification for the exchange email I received stays in the notification bar.
Is there any way to clear those automatically when I check my email instead of having to go to the notification panel and clear them manually?
Open up the stock email app and go to settings. Scroll down shot 2/3 of the way disband make sure that Email Notifications is not checked. Would advise going to through the gmail app and checking the same.

Yea, I tried that too. These notifications all come from EE. The only email app I use is EE, and no matter which notification I open it takes me to EE. Problem is the notification bar doesn't equate opening one account as really taking care of both notifications at once.

For some reason I keep getting two email notifications, one from yahoo and one from the @ symbol. Under accounts I see my email with the @ symbol so I try pressing remove account but it doesn't do anything so I press on it and im unable to change the username and its blank. Try just entering the password but says I need to enter the username

Open the @email app, go to settings, uncheck notifications. Then you should only get email notifications from your Yahoo app.

You are using the 'Yahoo Mail' app right? The @email app and the Yahoo email app have different settings lists. Uncheck the notification option for whichever one you dont want notifications from, the other should stay checked and continue to notify you. If you are getting duplicate notifications it is because you have told 2 apps to notify you.
All I see is the @email app. Whys that? I still get email notifications from the yahoo app but I can't find the app

I downloaded the app myself, and found it in alphabetical order under M in my app drawer, right next to Google Maps. Its a blue icon w/ an envelope on it. You dont see it?
Newbie here, I searched but sorry if this has come up before.
The 3d is my first Android phone - came from Palm Pre minus hell.
How on Earth do you turn off the sound and LED notification of every email / SMS / etc?
I've got the notifications turned off in the Mail app for each of my two accounts, but still get the BLLLIP every frickin' couple minutes.
Thanks!

use volume-down until it's on vibrate
you configure notifications from a given app from the app itself. so when you're in the main scene of an app, hit the menu key & look for Settings>Notifications.

Thanks, but I've already done that. Still get the notifications.
Calendar
I've also noticed that you can't turn on notifications but have vibrate off for the calendar events. I think this is a sense 3.0 thing, as you could do it on the EVO 4G and could do it in some custom sense 2.1 ROMs I ran. Kingdom ROM (sense 3.0) had the same issue. Wish they'd put that back in.
If you're using Gmail under settings there is an option that will only notify you once for unread emails. Once you check your mail and get new messages it'll notify once again for the next new message until you check it.
As for SMS the default app either notifies you on each app or none at all. I checked Go SMS Pro but they don't have an option that only notifies you once like Gmail does.
Edit: I had the Pre minus too, and in Android the main thing is that you use the menu button pretty much the same way in the Pre you hit the upper left corner to get the programs menu.
Thanks
Well, I'm either dumber than usual, or something is wrong.
On the page in Mail settings under "Notifications", "Email Notifications" is un-checked and set to "Off". Still get the frickin' bleep an flashing green LED on every single email.
Not sure what else I can do.
Do you have a gmail or other account. If it's a gmail account when you setup your phone by default your gmail is in the gmail app. If you setup your gmail account in the email app remove it from there and only deal with it in one place which the gmail app is the best place for it.

Aha! I was using an app labeled "Mail" which was on the first page of the home screen (or whatever the proper term is), NOT the "Gmail" app . The Gmail app also has Notification settings. How confusing.
That took care of it. Thanks a bunch!
Hey all,
Can't believe I am actually interested in disabling GMail.
But the standard "Mail" app seems to have a nicer UI than the Gmail app. Especially since it has dedicated Gmail settings.
But how do I disable the gmail app (can't be uninstalled...yet)? Obviously without root, and not sure it's worth the trouble to temp root.
It's just that every email received at Gmail gives me two separate notifications...

The best I can think of (without rooting) is turning off notifications for Gmail so you don't get harassed by two alerts.

That's really all you need to do.
I turned off the gmail notification the first day I had the thing for the same reason.

FWIW, the dedicated Gmail settings in the Sense mail app are POP3 settings. In other words, every email will show up on your phone as unread, even if you have read it on another device or the web interface.

Thanks for this. I did disable notifications for the Gmail app, which worked like a charm.
As to the pop3 mail, I did not get an inbox full of unread mail when I set it up.
Perhaps the Sense mail has been improved? I am familiar with what you are describing, but that is not the behavior I am seeing.

This issue happened for me on my Rezound, so we are talking about the same Sense version. When I set it up, I didn't get an inbox full of unread messages either, but every message I got from then on wouldn't get marked in Sense mail as unread unless I viewed it from within that app. So, for example, I could get a new gmail message in the gmail app/sense mail, and view it in the gmail app/web interface, but even after refreshing the sense mail it still shows up as unread. Eventually I had to remove the gmail account in sense mail and set it up manually as an IMAP.
An HTC rep responded to an email of mine and basically told me that manual IMAP was the only way to get around the issue. But kudos to you if everything is working!
is there a way to force clearing of notifications if emails are read using the gmail app?
email comes in.
open gmail and read the email.
notification don't clear.
Same problem here. Used to be on my Droid Inc 2 with CM7 that even if I read the unread email in browser on my computer the notification would disappear, this was very convenient. If I'm sitting at my desk with gmail open, I don't want my phone to continue blinking a notification light at me after I've read it....
It is common problem. Even missed call stays on until you manually clear it. Report in bugs section.
Hello. So I currently have my work exchange email and gmail setup on my phone. They are set to sync every 15 minutes. When I get a new email it shows in my notification bar on my phone as expected. However, if I look at an unopened email on my computer and don't touch my phone the notification will stay there on my phone and it will never update as being read no matter how long I wait. I.e, even though it has been read on my computer the email continues to stay in my notification bar as being unread long after the 15 minute refresh interval. On my previous HTC phone when I read it on the computer it would remove it from the notification bar on my phone showing there are no new emails to be read. Is this a glitch on the G3 or working as expected? It's a huge pain to have to open the email on my phone or swipe it away in the notification bar when the message has already been read elsewhere. Any ideas?
Thanks!
What software are you using for email? I use K-9 and don't have your problem. This isn't a phone issue, it's an email client issue.

I'm using the stock email app. I'd prefer not to use K-9.

Well, I can also verify the problem doesn't exist on the GMail app. And just as a test I temporarily defrosted the stock email app and tried it out as well and didn't see your issue.
Sounds like you've inadvertently done something to your phone to cause the issue. It's not a problem with the stock email app and it's certainly not hardware-related. Check and see what you've installed and configured on your phone and see what might be bringing this about.
If all else fails you can always factory reset your phone. :crying:
