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.

Hey! I have a rooted Thunderbolt (Das BAMF Remix 1.6.3, using Imo's 2.7.0 leanKernel), but I have the LauncherPro app and I have my dock display my calls, messages, GMail, as well as a shortcut to the browser.
When I installed this about three weeks ago, my SMS notifications used to work (when I get a notification, a little red notification bubble came up next to my message icon, which was customized, and so are the rest of my dock icons), and then it stopped working - once I installed SMS Go, it started to work again for a bit, and then stopped.
So for two weeks I sort of just accepted that, and then for some odd reason my GMail notifications stopped working... I would get e-mail, and it would say "Inbox (1)" when I click on the GMail icon to open it up, but to see it I would have to refresh and then it would pop up and then if I went to the home screen, the notification bubble would return. These notifications used to be instantaneous; I sent myself a test e-mail and waited for hours, and after doing several test e-mails, I realized sometimes (not all the time though) the application, even after an hour, was not recognizing I got mail until I refreshed.
I tried changing setting to check mail often, made sure on LauncherPro's preferences I set the notifications to be on... I am just unsure why my notifications would stop working (and my GMail is slowly going to crap - I even uninstalled and reinstalled, did not help).
Does anyone have any advice, opinions, or suggestions for this weird problem? Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!
Bump - does anyone have any suggestions? I just tried uninstalling and reinstalling GMail again with no success.

Check under accounts to make sure that sync is still on for your Gmail account.

Go into Settings > manage apps > all. Open the Gmail icon. Click on "clear cache " and "clear data ". Ignore the warnings. Return to home page, and open Gmail. It will resync, and your problem should be solved.

I've had gmail bug out on me about three times total dating all the way back to my OG droid. It always happened after flashing a new ROM even with full wipes. My situation was a little different (basically if I "deleted" a email in the gmail app it wouldn't actually delete. It would never resync to my phone but I still would get a x amount of new messages. I would then log into my gmail on the pc and there are all the messages that I had "deleted") I solved this once by just clearing data and cache, but the other two times I had to do a wipe and reinstall. What was interesting though is each time I back upd my current Rom and used that on the restore and bam it was fixed.
Is there any way I can change the frequency of when the GMail app checks mail/forwards them to my phone?
through the gmail app itself no. You could use the "mail" provider on the phone and receive gmail that way. In that program you (i think) can set up the frequency that it syncs. A couple of downsides to this though:
1. unless it has changed since I haven't tried it since the OG droid, it won't delete emails off your web based account only your phone.
2. you would need to delete the gmail app on your phone.
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!
I am not sure if this is just a glitch or not, but it appears my Gmail app on my phone is no longer syncing.
Notifications are not being sent either. It seems to have started today randomly. I would have to go into Gmail app, back out into the "Inbox" for it to show that there are new messages. Otherwise, it would not refresh at all.
This happens on both WIFI & 3G/HSPA+. I'm using stock everything.
Any suggestions?
I haven't had Gmail sync properly on my phone yet. With my Galaxy S I'd receive emails within a few seconds of them being sent with push notifications. Now with my Galaxy S2 I'm lucky if I get a notification within an hour.
EDIT: Looks like after a manual refresh, the first message I get will get a push notification, but after that it seems to take ages before I'll get another notification.
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.

Sounds like an issue with the app, email the dev.
Hi there,
i am using the email app to collectively get yahoo and gmail account emails.
However, some of my messages just disappear as soon as I read them from the notice bar.
It seem that emails read thru the email app -- directly -- stay there.
There are no options, or none i can easily find saying to delete messages from server or anything, but *those* messages also disappear without trace from server as well.
I experienced this with gmail as well as yahoo mail. just this morning the last time.
I am using v1.6 of ressurection remix, will upgrade today to 1.8.1, however, i think this might not be rom related as i think it happened in the past with other dev roms.
Any thoughts on this? For now i just disabled notifications in system bar and see if still happens...
thanks for any idea on how to fix this.
It seems i was too fast to upgrade. the data doesn't seem to connect to telus' 3g/h+ network anymore.. in device status, mobile network state keeps saying 'connecting'.. After a while it reads 'disconnected'.
I guess i will just have to wait and see what other 1.8.1 upgraders have to say.
