Hi
Can it be set that gmail app checks the mail every lets say 30minutes instead instantly ?
The only thing i think of is to get a profiles application.
ok
but with gmail application this isn't possible?

No. It's push or off - that's the only choice you have.
Use the stock Email/Mail application if you want more control, rather than Gmail.
Another Gmail question without having to open a new thread, does anyone know why when i delete emails on my phone they are still there when i check my gmail on my laptop?

Are you using the Gmail app, or the Email/Mail app?

Turn off auto-sync and background data under accounts and settins. In Froyo and other mods, turn of data which will still allow you to receive calls and text messages but no ip stuff.
Gmail deletion on you phone and laptop will be delayed based on your connections. Usually within 5 minutes your phone and laptop should reflect each other.

No mate i think your geting a little mixed up here, what is happening is that when i delete emails on my phone they still show up when i check my laptop (they show up as being read) what im wondering is why when i delete emails on my phone they don't just delete and i have to delete them when i go on my laptop, i wouldn't imagine it has anything to do with sync or the likes, is no one else having the same trouble?

i've noticed recently that when i receive a gmail chat on my computer it also shows up on my captive.
i use pidgin for my computer and would prefer most of my gmail chat to go though the computer.
is there a way to disable it from coming up on the captive?
my gmail account is linked, but only syncs when i tell it to.
thanks
Log out of talk on your phone. You won't get the notifications that way
where do you do that? i don't see an app other than gmail.
is it in messaging? or somewhere in settings?
thanks

open talk app on phone go to options->more->sign out!!!
this should work as it worked for me. If not get task pane or task killer to kill talk running in background.
but I think first method should work because i tried stopping emails by killing gmail app running in background it never worked.
Signing out if talk worked.
Thanks fir the help

omg, this was seriously too easy. lol. i have been trying to figure this out for the last two days.
Yesterday my phone stopped sending GMail, seems to be perfectly fine elsewhere, texting, Yahoo!, etc. I believe that a Google Maps update took place yesterday, otherwise no changes. Can't see how that would be related though. I compose the message and press Send, there appears in red text "Sending" and the message appears in the Outbox on the device but it never moves it beyond that. I have tried restarting the device to no avail.
Thanks in advance,

Go into settings/accounts & sync/gmail/ - make sure gmail is checked for all 3 options. You *may* have to re-sign in.
Hmm... definitely make sure it's setup to sync but most likely you need to clear any unsent emails from the outbox on your phone and then go into settings, applications, manage applications, gmail and clear data and then let it resync.

That certainly was easy! Thank you so much.
edit, nevermind
Trying another email app, seems whatever email app I use for my Gmail, push never retrieves the email well, though will appear on my computer instantly, may be 10 minutes, half hour, etc. before it comes to my phone unless I open the app, and sometimes need to hit the refresh within it. I've tried with active sync and default email app, too.
Seems better with data.
Wondering if there's a setting I don't have set correctly. If anyone has encountered this and knows, would appreciate it
Account settings - check frequency - every 5 min.
The stock android email app will not check more frequently than that as far as I know.
Unlike your home computer, most cell phones don't have an unlimited power source and unlimited uninterrupted internet connection.

I had no problems with gmail set to push on Maildroid.

Thanks. Was it ok with wifi? Seems to have more problems that way. I've tried Maildroid, I Like that you can compose in html (emoticons, font color, etc.) trying the app "Inomail" as it has that ability, but with all email apps, push can be very delayed and end up setting a poll frequency

Thanks. No problem polling, as you mention. I can set K-9 email to poll every minute with reliably.
I don't remember any problems with wifi. I realized that it consumes much more battery on push, so i reset mine to check onlywhen i open the app

I am using the simple email app included, Gmail is disabled. Using arhd 10.1 but this problem was here long before with original stock.
I guess I have already tried all possible combinations to have the mail sync, maybe someone else has an idea on how this works if at all.
In settings I tried the smart sync, then each number of minutes, whatever I put in there, the only way to have the mail query the server is to manually open the application. For instance, I send myself an email from desktop, my ipad picks it up in a matter of seconds, I mean the fu$#er is in sleep mode, cover on, then I almost instantly hear that notification sound. The One however, I could wait all day, no sign it knows about it.
I have 2 email accounts configured, yahoo and Gmail, I also tried to add one at a time, nothing seems to help.
Thanks for any idea on how to make it work or any suggestions on a third party app?

Smartsync takes time to build a database of data about your usage and when to check for email. For Gmail the best bet is the Gmail app, which will get almost instant push notifications.

I'd rather be using only one app for my email accounts - - the stock mail for instance.
It's just that no sync mode seems to work, be it smart or not

like the guy said above. smart sync needs to build a repour before it will know when to check. its not having information pushed to it like the gmail app is. your best bet is to use the 2 separate apps since each individual app has the ability to push emails immediately while HTC's smart sync or manual sync is just basically timed sync-ing. its just that smart sync is timed to how the phone learns your usage?

As I said the manual mode doesn't work either.
I am going to try k9 for now..
Sent from a pizza
Okay, I think the problem might be elsewhere: the k9,same as mail doesn't seem to sync either. I have tried this over wifi and data, in power settings the sleep mode is disabled, I even disabled power saver.
Does email synchronization works for anyone excepting gmail users?
I am going to enable gmail, see how that behaves with sync..
Sent from a pizza
Manual mode as in your in the mail app and request it to refresh? And the email still doesn't come through? Not sure then.. I used smart sync for a while then I found it to not update fast enough for my needs. But it did always work.

The mail app syncs over wifi, I found out. Yes, it took a while (set it up to check at 5 minutes.). However, it still doesn't work when screen is off.
While on data only, the whole sync is very conservative. Unless I open up myself the mail thing it doesn't bother to refresh. In fact, the only thing synchronizing over data is weather from BW widget, but even then I am afraid it only refreshes itself when opening the screen. Ah, and Google play, I get notifications over mobile data as well.
I mean I used to want this conservative data behavior when on 100mb data plan, however now I have 3gb to spend and having trouble with email notifications?
I suspect there might be a misbehaving app will try reinstalling everything and one app at a time..

I believe you can add your gmail account to the stock email app so gmail will show up on the watch but do incoming gmail have the push feature in the stock app?
Thanks

What is the name of the stock email app, trying to get step by step instructions to this.
The stock app auto-configures Gmail as "push." I'm guessing it's IMAP behind the scenes and it only applies to e-mail, not tasks or the calendar.
Try this, it is working for me for Hotmail.com and Gmail.com accounts.
1- Went to Stock email app(looks like a white envelope with @ symbol in middle.
2- Created hotmail.com account(dont go through manual process of setting account) and selected "push" for sending emails to Note/Gear. Put your email address and password, follow the steps and you are done.
3- Create gmail.com account and do the same as step #2.
4- Go in your Note to Settings-General-Accounts. Select the Google account and hit enter, Uncheck box by Sync Gmail.
This is how I have it set up and Hotmail as well as gmail emails are coming into the Note and Gear.
Someone correct me if I am wrong.

I am getting proper notifications for Gmail account by pushing the mails to the stock Email app also.
It's working very nicely.
If you set up Gmail in the stock email app, can you still use the Gmail app to read and rely on the phone?
I like the Gmail app as it is seamless between phone and laptop in terms of marking as read, sorting into folders etc.

Yes you can still use the gmail app on the phone just fine.
my email notification is not working as well. tried wit imap and pop but it's not showing

You need to enable the pop3 support in the Gmail settings page first before adding the Gmail account to the stock Email app.

You need to use stock email app and when you get to a screen about server, there is a drp down option and select push. You need to also go in your ear app and in setting, there is a section for choosing which apps to send to Gear. Select stock email app, send yourself a test email and should work.

That's exactly what I did, no notifications though

See post above me. Make sure you DO NOT choose MANUAL in the stock email app when setting the gmail account choose the option to the right of that for the system to do it all for you. In the next page I believe is where the drop down option at the top is to select PUSH.
If you like, send me a pm with your phone number and I can call you when you want. I think that will be easier than trying to go back and forth with emails.

Yes, in the PC browser, go to your Gmail page and then to Settings.
There you will see tab menus on the top. Choose Forwarding and POP/IMAP tab.
Then, you will see the option to enable POP.
After that, you can just add an account in the stock email app to deliver Gmails with the option of "push" delivery automatically.

Weird as I did not have to touch my MAC to get the emails from Gmail to work with my Gear. All I did was set up the account in the stock email app, select the auto set up, select PUSH in the next setting screen and voila, emails coming to the Gear. I did have to go into the Gear app setting and check the email app to send notifications to the Gear.
All is well in my world and hope we can help one another get their emails and texts going.
Want to remind everyone that only the stock text and email apps are allowed to send info to the gear. If you are using something else, you may get the notification but, nothing else. You will then have to go into the phone to view the text or email.

I've had the same issue, no notification at all, i've tried everything, but now solved it.
Everytime i've sent e "test-mail", my phone (galaxy note 2) was not in sleeping mode. As i gave up trying, suddenly my Gear was pushing a new mail that came in.
So for me, it only works when the phone is not awake (what makes sense in my opinion). Hope that helps someone others problem too.
Good luck.

That makes sense to me. I don't want the notifications to clog up my watch if I am already looking at the phone.
That only wastes the battery life of the watch. Smart!
