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.
This is driving me mad. I'm running Gmail 2.3.5. When I delete a message from Gmail on a PC this doesn't happen. It only happens when I delete from the device.
Basically whenever I delete a message I get a new notification and there's no new message. It took a while before I realised that it was tying into deletions because I get so many mails.
I checked my settings. It is set to sync the last 4 days and only on Inbox and Sent labels. It's also only set to notify once for new mail which does work. I've also never had any other email apps on the phone and have one account syncing.
I've scoured the settings but I seriously can't see anything I'm missing. There is a "Recycle Bin" label that is only on the device and I can't see that you can control syncing on it since it's not listed in the settings.
I'm sure I'm overlooking something simple here. I'd appreciate any help.
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.
So i have my S2 with the upgraded 4.1.2 stock rom from Samsung , but rooted, and go launcher.
I have this setup for the last 2 years or so with all the go launcher upgrades.
My problems are like this:
I have not received Gmail notifications in forever i always have to check manually for mail.
Yes i tried emptying cache and app data and the label notifications are always checked for all my accounts, but still nothing.
I have used Jorte calendar for some time but had to give it up last year cause after a while it would not send me notifications on the dates i set.
Recently i tried using Caynax hourly notification app.
This program doesnt send a visual notification in the notification area but plays a little audio clip similarly to when you receive a message.
And again after using it for a few weeks it just stopped sending notifications.
I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, clearing data and the lot, settings in the app show everything is set up to send me the notifications and yet it doesnt.
I am getting some notifications, Facebook , YT and pushes , to name just a few, seem to work well enough
So if anyone has any experience with something like this please help.
humble bump
Hi all,
I have been searching for this for a while and haven't found the answer anywhere.
I have 2 problems with notifications on my S9+ and can't figure out how to fix them - hopefully someone here can help.
1. Gmail: I have 4 different gmail accounts on my phone, 3 of them show up notifications no problem, but 1 of them for some reason doesn't. The one that doesn't is the most important one however, and the default account for the phone.
I have gone through what I can see for the settings and duplicated everything between the different accounts and I have also deleted the account and reloaded it and still no joy.
From what I can see it is still syncing and retrieving the mails, but just not telling me if there are new ones there.
Any ideas?
2. Whatsapp: This may not be an issue with my phone, but again hopefully someone can help. I have a wearOS watch and up until recently whatsapp notifications were coming up on the watch no problem before one day just stopping. I am not sure if any changes occured (add update etc.) that caused the notifications to stop.
But what makes this one strange (to me anyway) is that all other notifications come up no problem on my watch, however I also have a fitbit which retrieves whatsapp messages but these are still working fine. Both watch and fitbit worked fine with whatsapp notifications previously just in case anyone thinks there might be an issue having two wearables taking the same notifications.
Hopefully someone can help me with 1 or both of these issues.
Thanks very much,
N
