[Q] Emails status update - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
There is something strange with the email notification through the email icon at the top of the screen and through the LED, compared to what was existing before with my previous HTC DHD and Ace.
With these old smartphone, the notifications (icon and LED) was updated within seconds if I had read the email on my computer. LED stopped blinking and icon disappeared while the email was marked as read in the smartphone. The synchornization via Gmail or Exchange was excellent.
But on my S3, even I read the email on my computer, the LED keeps blinking and the icon stays at the top of the screen until I delete the notification with dropdown menu.
Is it a problem with the S3 as I have never had such issue with my two previous smartphone using exactly the same email accounts, with the same profiles configuration.
I must add, that in both cases, I use the stock application provided by HTC (with Sense) and Samsung (with TouchWiz).
Thanks for your help,
Lim.

So no one has the slightest idea why HTC can do something that Samsung can not ?

[Q] New Message (Unread) Notifier?

I have seen this issue on other phone forums via search, but I seem to be the only one with this happening on a Vibrant. Every time I get message the yellow icon comes up on the notification bar but then the old school white message icon comes up too and the drop down just says I have unread messages.
I tried turning off the notifications in the messaging options but that removes both the yellow envelope icon (I want that) but not the unread messages (white postcard). Even after "read" the messages it stays there until I hit clear notifications then pops back up when I get a new reply.
Anybody have any ideas on how I can fix this? I am rooted running the stock ROM with the recent OTA update.
I also checked the SIM for any stored or saved messages and at one point deleted every text I had.
It sound slike you have another msging app installed - like HandCent or something.

Exchange Email Notification Won't Clear

Hi guys
I am having this problem:
http://www.android.net/forum/htc-evo...-clearing.html
Basically when i receive new exchange based emails (2 different exchange accounts), i get a push notification on my phone. NIce. If i read it on my laptop/computer, some hours later i look at my phone and the NOTIFICATION bar still shows "40 unrea msgs" - yet the email icon doesnt show 40. If i go into the email app, they ARE all marked as read- and then finally the notification goes away.
Why is this?

Galaxy S3 not getting any notifications and clock not syncing

Hello,
I have a Galaxy S3 9300 running official rom and android 4.3
Since yesterday, i receive no notifications from all apps (viber, mails etc). for example i only see the viber messages only when i start the viber app. Same thing for all apps.
Also, the top right clock on the home sceen does not sync with the clock of the home screen weather app (the top right clock time is left behind until i switch off and on the screen).
Additionally, when i go to the settings-device info-firmware upgade, nothing happens (normally it should search for any new upgrade).
Finally, i noticed that the battery is running out faster than before without any specific device use...
I didnt make any upgrades or anything else for the last 15 days and i also switched off/on the device many times in case the problem would be solved.
Any usefull thoughts???

Android N stock email & LED notification

I use a rooted AICP Rom on my Le pro 3 phone, It's like an original Android N. I think the stock email app is quicker than other email apps, but how to set 'show all pictures' for every email? Don't want to do show picture each time.
Another is LED notification, seems it can't turn a single LED notification(like message, email, calendar) off but leave others on?

[Q] Gmail Syncing - Disable Notification?

A few times a day, a Gmail notification appears in the notification area (top of screen) and also as a button on on the icon for the Gmail app. When I expand the notification, all it is for is that Gmail is Syncing. The notification automatically disappears when finished syncing. Is there a way to disable that particular syncing notification? It makes me think that I have a new email, and only way to tell is by viewing the notification, or waiting to see if it disappears.
I think this started happening ever since I added a second account.
I am on updated, stock, un-rooted Android.
Thank you,
