Do you need to have GMail still installed on your phone to receive push notifications? Ever since I uninstalled GMail I no longer get any push notifications for Inbox. I have Inbox set to sync for every label so I don't get it! If anyone could clarify this for me I'd greatly appreciate it.
In settings, accounts, google, is inbox checked for sync?
You don't need the Gmail app btw.

The HTC email apps on my Sprint Hero are not auto syncing with my gmail.
The gmail email app is auto syncing just fine, I receive emails immediately but only in my gmail brand inbox. They are not automatically going to my HTC device inbox or the HTC email widget.
Basically, if I want to get push email I have to use my gmail specific inbox.
If I want to use the HTC inbox or email widget then I dont get the luxury of push email.
I can use them both but then I get 2 notifications for each email.
Any solutions?
I know I could just set my HTC email to update every 5 minutes but that's an awful lot of battery to burn...
Is there a way to have my gmail pushed or auto synced to my HTC email apps as well as my gmail branded email inbox?
Is this already supposed to happen? Could I have broken something rooting? All I have done with root access is remove some sprintware following the safe app removal thread and installed THIS OPTIMIZER.
Any feedback will be greatly appreciated!!
Gmail support MS Exchange push, and you can set the HTC Email app up to use it. You can also turn off email notifications on the Mail app, if you want to use both Gmail and HTC mail.

Is gmail push mail? I know my hotmail account which is setup on the email app is.
But when I send a mail to both accounts, the hotmail one always arrives before and the gmail one waits until auto sync.
Im no expert on this, so any clarification would be appreciated.
Yes It has push mail. Just mark auto sync from accounts and sync. But there is a problem when using it in wi-fi connection. You can fix it like this way:

Hi, I searched the forums but could not find any thread that dealt with this issue (for any phone), so I apologize if it's already been posted. And since I don't know if this is just an issue with the Rezound, I'm posting it here.
When I set up my Rezound I entered in my Google account info, and the phone automatically set up my Gmail account both in the Gmail app and in the stock HTC Sense Mail app. The Gmail app seems to work fine, but the stock email app doesn't sync the read status of new messages. If I get any emails in Gmail during the day, even if I log into it on my computer and read the messages, they still show up as unread in the sense mail app. Refreshing the app doesn't change anything. In the Gmail app, the messages will be marked as read if I have viewed them anywhere else.
I can't figure out how to fix this, and there doesn't seem to be a way to edit any server settings for the account, as sense has it registered as a Gmail account in the stock mail app, and not as a pop/imap account.
Anybody having this problem, or know how to fix it? I'm a new android user, and have only had this phone for a few days. Thanks.
Just take the gmail email out of the htc mail and just use the gmail email app to get your gmail mail.

I would like to avoid doing this if possible. I like having all my mail in one place. Any way to fix the stock app?
Email htc/usa and ask them. It only takes one second to push the gmail app,that's what I do. I understand you don't want to do that. Htc should be able to tell you how to change the settings.

I got an official reply from HTC:
Thank you for contacting HTC Technical support about the issue you are having with your Gmail account on your device. I do apologize that you have this issue with your device and I will gladly assist you with this today. We recommend you delete your Gmail account from the mail application on your device and use the Gmail application for your Gmail account on your device. The issue you are having it with the way the Gmail POP3 servers work with the Mail application on the device and there is not a setting to make it sync up to have the mail show up read until you up it on your device.

So it looks like, for whatever reason, the Gmail setting in the sense email app defaults to POP3, even though I have IMAP enabled in my gmail web settings. Unless anyone knows a way to fix this, I guess I will have to either set Gmail up as a regular IMAP account or just use the standalone application.
Thanks for the replies
Firstly, Hi everyone and thank you for your time in helping me out.
I love my Xperia S and have set up gmail accounts on my handset. However, I like the look and feel of the Sony Email app more than the gmail app but I am getting duplicate email notifications.
I have been able to remove accounts from the Email app and have just gmail but I would prefer it the other way around.
When I try to remove accounts from the gmail app, it asks to remove the accounts completely, including sync with contacts etc.
I know I can just turn off notifications in the gmail app, but I would rather turn off mail sync from the gmail app so I am not wasting bandwidth/battery.
Any help would be apreciated
You cannot remove the default gmail account only by factory reset.

I read and delete messages in the gmail android app but when I log into gmail on a pc, none of those messages are deleted, or even marked as "read"!! They're just sitting in my inbox as if they're brand new messages. I hate it!!
What is the correct combination of settings in gmail to make messages deleted in the gmail app, actually be deleted?? Nothing is set to auto, everything is manual. So I refresh my inbox on the app, I see my new messages. I delete them in the app. Then I refresh the app. Logically, this should delete the messages permanently. But when I log on at a computer, all the messages are still there! Please, Please, Please. Thank you;.

I purchased Enhanced Email many years ago and that is my solution. Minimal setup, I delete a message in that app, and the email is gone forever.
Why is the gmail app so, so horrible??
