Yes, no notifications from calendar, or push e-mail. It's like it's not even happening, but when I open the apps things refresh and then my info is there. It's driving me crazy.

So push email notifications were working for me. I think I managed to fix the calendar, go into calendar settings and make sure your alerts or notifications are on. for all calendars. For some reason you have to choose the calendar. After that restart your phone, it should work. This might even work for your push email.

[Q] Gmail sync issues

My gmail account hasn't synced in two days. Just gmail. Google contacts and calendar sync just fine. I'm not getting notifications about new emails. However...if I launch the gmail app...it shows new mail in the inbox under labels. But I'm not able to view the new emails in the actual inbox.
Anyone experiencing this as well? If no one else is having this kind of problem can you suggest a fix?
Sidenote- I thought about deleting my account from my captivate but I get a notice that I have to do a clean wipe in system settings to do so.
Help please!?!
I have been getting this for awhile even before ther recent update. (Im on the Desire)
HELP!

Try going to settings manage apps and find gmail and clear the cache - you should be good....

(Q) Does your emails get pushed to the GMAIL App? Mine don't!

[Q] Facebook notifications

I have everything in my sync and also configured in my facebook settings to receive the notifications....But so far, I just receive one time...Is set to sync every 30min...But it worked one time only....
I know that is a know issue, I just would like to know if someone know how to fix that...
I wanted to receive notifications when i have messages, comments and new requests....
I just configured everything in the facebook settings on my phone...is still not working....
You did know you can activate your phone through Facebook to receive sms notifications.
Sign into Facebook>Account>Account Settings>Mobile Tab
See if that will do what you want. Facebook sync is meh at best.
Added: "Standard messaging rates apply"
Facebook notification is badly broken across all android phones and there's no excuse for it
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
yeah i wish we had the iphones facebook notifications..the only good thing about the iphone lol
So still no fix for this? My notifications worked before the most recent Facebook app update. Way to go, Facebook.
If you use Hotmail for facebook, Just sync it via EAS in
Settings > Accounts and sync > Add account > Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync.
You will get notifications via hotmail instantly.

Guys, I know this is an old thread but I want to see if someone can confirm that notifications work with this facebook apk.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1200174
It is a blacked out version which I honestly think is better without notifications, but I started getting them after installing. So if anyone could confirm it works for them, great! If not, I got lucky and at least we have a cooler looking version of facebook.

Gingervolt email notification

I'm sorry I'm a noob, but I've searched and read a lot and I don't seem to see anyone with this exact issue....
I have a few email accounts. Before I flashed to gingervolt, I had messages from both accounts accessible in the same list and notifications worked for both. Now, I must choose which account I would like to access at a time.
I really can't find any settings to adjust this on the phone. Does anyone have a clue what may be wrong or is this just the way Gingervolt behaves?
Thanks.

If I'm the same as you you mean 2 accounts in Gmail. You will get notifications for both but you have to view each account seperately. I've never seen it any other way.
Sorry, I know I wasn't very clear. I've got a gmail account and then another non-gmail account that I get via POP/SMTP. It seems I only get notified for the account marked as primary and I have no way to change the frequency with which it pulls from the POP server... I believe it's set to around 30 mins, but I can't find a way to change that at all.
Does anyone know how to (using GingerVolt):
1. Change the polling frequency of a POP account?
2. Set the notification to work for both gmail and another account, regardless of which is primary?
Thanks!
Ok... So, I think K-9 mail is going to give me more frequent polling. Still testing....

Glad you're getting it figured out
I thought the stock email client did this... Not the gmail client but the AOSP email client which allows 1 centralized box. You can also specify how often it goes and checks for new mail.

Which is exactly why I posted... I thought those capabilities would be in the mail client after flashing to Gingervolt.
K-9 still seems to be working well enough for me.
Ok... I have figured out the proper imap settings so the sync time is no longer an issue like it was with POP, but I am sticking with K-9. It is really well done. The ability to set the notification quiet time and a unified inbox are worth it alone.

[Q] Facebook active display

Does anyone have any problems with facebook notifications not appearing on the active display? Everything else seems to be working fine like my sms, email, calendar, but i'm not getting any facebook notifications to it. Also is there a way to extend how long a display shows up on a screen?

not sure about the 2nd question. Are you sure you have facebook set up in touchless controls to show up. You can select which apps show up in touchless controls and which don't
I think i found the problem. Facebook was checked in the settings. I did two things, not sure which worked. I uninstalled it, and reinstalled it. And I changed the account from my phone number to my email address and its working now. Maybe i added facebook before i set up the active display and it didn't get added properly.
