The thing is I am stuck with this notification "Account action required' for this email id that was from work from my previous job. I deleted the account and then its password was changed from my work as it no longer belongs to me. But i am stuck with this notification and it's not going away. When I click on it asks me to sign in, which i cant cuz i don't have the password obviously. In settings, accounts section that account is no more there as i already removed it a few days ago.
Its driving me crazy, please help get rid of this notification!

Long press notification, I believe you have the option to not be disturbed

Okay so I tried posting this in the general section and I didn't really get too much help. I tried calling Motorola support and the guy was talking to me like I was stupid. What happens is I get two email notifications in the notification bar. One with the y! Symbol and one with the @symbol. Every time I get an email both of these notifications pop up and this used to not happen before. It seems like it should be a very simple fix. Yet I haven't had any luck fixing it. Anyone else with this problem

I'm assuming you have some yahoo mail app? Hence the y!
You should be able to turn off notifications for either one of those. Just pick which app you want to be your main email client, open the one you don't want to use, hit the options menu button (the left-most soft button that has 4 squares on it), and disable notifications and you could probably tell it to never check for messages/sync.

Is there supposed to be a yahoo mail app? because i just see that blue email app. And under accounts and motoblur account, it shows the email with the @ icon, the username is blocked out and im only allowed to enter a password and when i do that, it says please enter a username. I can't delete that account
I dunno man. the only thing I can think of that would use a notification that looks like y! is some yahoo app. check all your apps in the app drawer and look for anything yahoo related.

I had this same problem and couldn't get around it. I created the problem (I think) by using Titanium Backup to restore the email/messages. It was after I re-flashed the retail sbf to get root on .57. I reflashed the sbf a second time and didn't restore from Ti (only restored apps plus data). It turned out Motoblur kept that info anyway once I logged in after reflashing. (the email account was there).

It was a few weeks back when I did this so I am a little hazy but it appears that Moto must populate the email fields on the phone from their server level. If I recall correctly my 3 accounts (one exchange, one pop3 and one gmail) were all there after I reflashed and just logged into Motoblur after the second reflash. The Ti email/messaging restore must do something to corrupt the pop3 accounts. Like you, I couldn't figure out a way to get rid of the account and just re-enter the data.

Oh okay looks like ill have to do that then....first im gonna have to find the fastest way to get back to where I am now

This bugs the hell out of me as well. I get two different notifications when I get one email from one source. One is the @ red stamp looking icon, and the other is the standard gray envelope. I'm on GingerBlur, and I've been looking for a way to get rid of one or the other notifications and can't find where to remove one of them.
There has to be a way to do this other than a re-flash.
Oh, wow didn't see this thread when I posted in another one. I suggest checking universal inbox or other all in one messaging apps to make sure there aren't multiple apps notifying you about email, since just on the phone are 3 email apps, one for Gmail, one for yahoo, and one for all of them.
Also if you do decide to sbf, get titanium backup and do a batch backup of your apps, and then redownload titanium backup and restore the backup after you sbf. It made things much easier when I sbfed.

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.
Dont know if this is the right GENERAL section, but lets see
I have 3 gmails. Personal, and 2 for work.
When I put my third email in (created it on my phone)
It does not show the emails I have received, it does not even have the counter next to my account in the gmail app.
I have to click "ALL MAIL" to see my emails?
Gets kind of annoying.
When I receive an email it does pop up, when I read it, gmail says "no conversation" when I go back. Again, I have to click ALL MAIL to see past emails
Yes, I did reboot, yes I did clear data in application menu, yes I checked auto-sync on and off, yes I did make sure background data was checked.
I'm thinking there's something I need to do on the PC??
So basically my Instagram account was disabled. Well I guess you can say my phone is disabled since I can log into that account on other people's phone. I tried a number of things and it is so frustrating because we can do so much on our phone and I can't seem to get this. I tried changing my Android ID, Reflashing ROM, clearing cache and doing a factory reset. I did multiple things. If anyone at all has any idea what I could try it would be much be appreciated and maybe a donation. I tried multiple times to get in touch with Instagram and no matter what I say in the email I still can not get any reply.
Your Gmail Account is pretty much Banned.

On iphones they ban your apple ID and phone data. On android (pretty sure) they ban you through gmail and other phone data, which for android is essentially your phones (account) id for on your specific phone. So pretty much your screwed unless you want to create a new gmail and wipe your phone which is a pain in the ass and could still prove fruitless. The only reason your account gets into this state is from the content you post. If you posted a controversial picture recently, something offensive, vulgar, explicit that's probably what did it. If the prior steps didnt work or you dont want a new gmail, you can try contacting Instagram through the correct email- help.instagram.com/customer/portal/emails/new

Thanks for your reply.. I was thinking about deleting my gmail account to see if that would work but I don't want to delete it knowing that it might not work. I know what I posted and I am well aware of the rules. I have tried to contact IG but they clearly say if your account was banned then you will not get a reply. So yeah.. They never reply.. If I knew for a fact that if I delete my gmail account that it would work I might do it.. I had this email since the G1 and it's my main email.. But if they banned your gmail along with something else that I can't change then like you said it would prove fruitless. Has anyone had their account banned and was able to get back on there? Any other suggestions? Thanks sofyanator.
EDIT: Also when you say wipe phone do you mean wipe cache, dalvik and reset phone flash a rom and log in with another gmail account?
No problem. But you don't have to "delete" your gmail. Just make a new gmail to use with instagram. First off you should, make a second gmail, most people have one designated from spam. Make a new instagram with the new gmail and just follow everyone. Or, if you have the time, back up then factory reset and plugin the new gmail with the gapps setup. And if that doesn't work and you really really want to keep this current account, you said it worked on your friends phone, so you could wait out a new phone or do a warranty upgrade.

The ROM I am using currently is stock. I do have a second gmail account. I did make a new account but with my outlook email. The same email I used to send IG an email claiming I just bought a new phone on Craigslist and when I tried to log in it says my account has been disabled. But of course they did not send an email back which I am not sure why.. They could of said something back.. I do want IG bad but I just got my phone It's not even a year old. Next time I update the ROM on my phone I might try and clear cache, dalvik and factory reset then flash the ROM and sign in with my other gmail account to see if that works.. I just wish somehow someone can edit the IG app like they did the Pandora app with unlimited skips. Maybe they can edit the IG app so it won't check email or whatever it is to stop you from signing in when your phone is disabled.
EDIT: WOW! Funny! So I am looking at different threads on here and I seen someone say to download IG 1.1.1 and sign in the update it from the Play Store but it wouldn't let me sign in unless I update. So I was looking at more stuff and it said clear ram when you sign in and BOOM! It worked.. I am surprised. Thanks bro.

I'm having the same issue, could you please explain in detail how you went to install the IG 1.1.1 and clearing the RAM, for some reason it isn't working on my HTC One.
I installed IG 1.1.1 go to sign up and it tells me I have to update it, now at this point do you update it or no?
I didn't see a choice but to update it so I did. I opened IG and went to sign in, where do I clear the RAM? I went into my applications but IG doesn't show up in my current processes.
Could you perhaps walk through it step by step so maybe others having this same issue won't have as much trouble as I am. Thanks

OMG I figured it out lol.
Ok so here are step by step what I did, I may have done more steps but better safe than sorry.
1.) I downloaded and installed IG 1.1.1
2.) Downloaded and installed app "RAM booster" from the play store, it's free.
3.)Ran IG 1.1.1 and went to sign in, it says you must update it. so I hit the home button on my phone to go to my mainscreen, leaving IG at sign up (user name and password screen)
4.) updated IG in play store
5.) opened IG and went to sign in screen, don't log in. Hit home screen to go back to your main screen leaving IG at username and password screen.
6.) open RAM booster and click "boost now"
7.) go back to IG, it should still be at the username and password screen.
8.) sign in and your should be in now.
Hope that help guys.
And when you say you can sign in, are you signing into the account that was banned? Or are you now able to create a new account? Using the same or a new email address? My account was banned a few days ago.

I made a new account and signed into my banned account.
Hi guys
Over the past two weeks my gmail app 4.5.2 would stop loading new msgs and showing no connection.
After a bit of trial and error i found out that is not gmail app since new release didnt fix it.
Instead if i delete my google account from my sgs2 then add it back it works. Though it seems to work for say 4 days or so the it will get stuck again.. i already did it 3 times.
So my question is.. is it the phone database? How do i fix it? From my google account it shows 'full access' so is ok in fact i thought permissions might be off?
When i add it back onto the phone it says i need to login from the web first. I do it, works then after approx 4 days its broken again...
Any help appreciated is driving me crazy..
Thanks
Gabrio
