Z2 mail notification is slower than iphone/computer when screen off - Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

my iPhone new mail notification is always around few mins earlier when screen is OFF (some times 10 mins!) . about same when screen is ON. I turn off STAMINA and data que ,etc. I tried HOTMAIL, gmail, etc..

I have noticed the same thing. Started up using stock mail app for my exchange mail but there was a delay even when I used push in settings. Installed touchdown that I had purchased before and it's much faster than the stock mail app.

Funny how I get the opposite... My z2 usually goes off first. And yes it's exchange.

Exchange email and calendar eating battery

Does anyone here have an exchange account on their note, and has noticed that on occasion the email and calendar apps are eating the battery?
This is the second time this has happened to me. As you'll see by my screenshot, the usage is even higher than the display and is keeping the phone awake. This happened to me this past weekend and I deleted the account and re-added it. That seemed to clear up the issue but now it's back.
Anyone else experience this?

I had the issue with email. I just went into settings and adjusted the sync schedule. I basically turned email off while I was asleep. That worked wonders for me.

This happens to me all the time. I think it is an issue that Android has when syncing to exchange servers. mine consistently will lose sync and I get repeated unable to connect messages so basically exchange just keeps the phone awake in constant attempt to sync. I've tried other email exchange apps and they work for a few days or more but then the issue starts up again. This was a problem on my epic 4g, evo4g and my Samsung intercept. I think your best bet is to do what you've been doing, monitor when your phone is acting up, remove your exchange account and add it back in again. That's pretty much what I do now. I wish sometimes that I didn't have to use my phone for work. Fyi with touchdown email clients app this has never been an issue. Try the 30 day trial. I just didn't want to spend the money on the app.

Install CPU Spy - I'll bet that you'll see it is keeping the CPU on a high speed and not entering deep sleep. Then kill the email app via the Task Manager and go back to see if that solves the CPU.

1st post, hi!
So you have your calendar syncing with exchange?!? How?
I have an exchange email synced and set to push. I haven't had any issues with poor battery life or over heating of the phone.

I'm assuming that you are using exchange sync'ed. I do, getting e-mail fine, calendar just isn't working. After a little google fu', there are multiple reports of the same thing. If yours is working, it maybe an exchange issue on my end then.
Sorry for hi-jacking the thread.
Thanks.

I just double checked and it says my calendar is synced with exchange. I also know that I am able to accept meeting requests from within exchange emails and it adds it to my my calendar.
Now I don't know if this has anything to do with it but I use Jorte as my main calendar which is also synced to my Google calendar.

[Q] adjust frequency of gmail push email?

Hello, is there a way to adjust the push frequency of my gmail to my device? I never had a problem with the og evo. With the lte I have to wait up to 15 minutes to receive a new gmail email.

How's 3G around your area? are you always on wifi? are you using the Mail app or the GMail client?
Normally it should pop up within a few min of receiving it on your mailbox, there are instances where I get it first in my phone then in my mailbox. I would suggest removing doing a Factory Reset (please backup first) and trying again if it doesn't resolve itself.
Also check your Gmail settings, make sure (just in case, because it might already be) that IMAP is enabled. Other than this, don't know what to say...
Hope this helps.
Gmail client - must be the 3G cause I tried on wifi and received it instantly.
Push is push the there is no frequency for it. It's live.

Set up your gmail account within the "regular" email app also. Then go into setting and you will see 4 options, one lets you set email size limits, sync intervals and limit emails if you want too.

Any idea why Email keeps my phone awake for 55 minutes when it is set to sync once every 4 hours?
Sent from my DROID RAZR HD using Tapatalk 2
How much email do you normally get? It appears that it takes 14 minutes or so to sync fully, each time it syncs (if each sync is equal in size).

Mine does this as well and I am pushing 2 email accounts. One is a corporate email account and the other is my Gmail that I have set as a corporate account also because I like having a unified inbox and I like the stock email app over the Gmail app...
Syncing takes like 30 seconds. Where did you get 14 min

Uhh, math, his phone was on for 16 hours, email was set to sync every 4 hours, and had a wakelock of 55 minutes. So 55 minutes /4 is just under 14 minutes (assuming each sync takes the same amount of time). The op never said how much email he gets in those 4 hours, or how large the emails are, or how fast (or slow) his Internet connection is when he is trying to download the email.
The amount of email, the size of the emails, and the connection speed all contribute to how fast, or in this case, how slow the email sync is. And that all occurs after a connection is made, which can have problems of its own.

Phone is on WiFi and it only downloaded like 3 or 4 e-mails in that time period, none with attachments.

Hmmn, strange. I personally hate the stock moto email client, so I'm running dhacker's cm10. Personally didn't notice any problematic wakelocks when I was using the stock app, but I had an exchange account set to push and 2 other email accounts set to sync every 30 minutes (main problem I was having is that it didn't work with encrypted emails and certificates). You could try to use the 4.0.4 ICS aosp email app, someone said they were able to get it working under jb.
Also, sorry, didn't realize that you made the thread when I wrote my last post.

Are you looking for a more robust mail app?

The stock Samsung email app is OK but robust it is not. If you want more consider AquaMail Pro. Free trial and a few bucks to own. Very good looking and powerful. Keep all of your email addresses in one spot.
I have no connection to the app other than I own and like it.
K9 mail real good opensource mail client.

i like the Sammy Email but +1 on free and robust
I agree Aquamail is quite nice IMO. Did not take long for me to get the pro version... For couple bucks it is well worth it.... Knowing also how much work is required to access exchange via ews the app is in fact cheap... Only complain is no sync with Outlook contact and calendar AFAIK.
Thanks for the heads up on this app that deserves it.
Cloudmagic is great too

blue mail it's the best.... ????
If I require mail, contact and calendar sync with 3 Exchange accounts what is the best non stock email app for me to try? I have been hating the inaccurate notification style of the stock Samsung email app
Nine is my email app of choice. Plus it shows the exchange calendar in the stock calendar app.

+1 for Nine. I have been looking for a good Exchange Email App and when I found Nine I knew I hit gold! It is by far the best Exchange Email app around... and I have tried many.

If MS Exchange compatibility is your prioirity you cant beat Touchdown. It is not free however. But you can get a free trial to try it out. For me its well worth the price.
Yes, Cloudmagic. I just went through and tried most of them, and Cloudmagic I've been using for about a week. Aquamail did look good, I just didn't have the time to go through and learn all the functionalities of it. I'll probably give it another try once I'm able to spend more time learning it.

Definitely Blue mail is the go-to mail app, it is free Nd it is multiaccount with push notifications and looks great on the GTS
The new Gmail does all that and is free

But Gmail doesn't have push notifications
Is it only the included mailapp (and calendar) from Samsung that works with the tab after papergarden? I assume you know what I'm talking about, no? On videos from YouTube I believe the widgets covering the calendar and mail widgets are yellow and green.
If third party mail/calendar apps doesn't work together with said widgets, isn't it better to stick with the stock apps?
No way.. Blue mail is the one. They will repond quickly also if you send in ab issue. Plus its works constantly for push on mulitple accounts. Stock for some reason goes to sleep and emails come in up to 1 hour late. I thought google would have fixed the isue from note 3. Not every since they stopped supporting exchange mail settings 2 years ago.
who runs blue mail? There no info who they are?
I like mailbox, perfect for me.
type mail
It's fairly new but I love it I think it's better than aquamail pro, I have them both downloaded but I think Type Mail is alot faster. Did I mention completely free.

Google calender no notification POPUP?!

Hi,
I'm using Google calender, and shared an calender with my buddy, but when he adds an appointment it takes ages when I seen an notification, I go to the app and must refreshes manually what is not normal!!!!
How to fix thats I get an notifications when he adds something or has been changed. The calenders are shared correctly. We seen each others calender... But I'm thinking right now how should I wait till I get an notification? 30 min? Don't get anything of an notification.
It seems that Huawei hardcore Google accounts synch is killing the whole process.. How to fix this problem!?!
