Mail notification/frequency check problem - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone else have long periods of time where no email is received? I have 2 Gmail accounts and 1 Exchange account. Exchange is push and the Gmail accounts are set to check every 15 minutes between 8am and 11:59pm (set to manual between 12 and 8am). Power saver feature is off. There are times when I open the email app and it downloads email that is over 3 hours old! With my setting, I should receive email every 15 minutes. Am I missing something?

Same problem, I'm on Rogers also -- did you manage to fix this ussue?
I'm set to full push notification and sometimes I get no notication at all except if I go INSIDE the app -- then I see a ton of emails that came in :crying:
Ditto for some text messages, not appearing in notification bar ...

Where to set up email auto send/receive and alarm?

I just got my hotmail account going (thanks XDA!)
Now i am getting greedy.
Thanks
just go to Settings>Sound>Advanced>Notifications> and for event select Messaging: New e-mail message.
Did you set your phone to check for new messages every 5 or 10 minutes or as it arrives? If you have a hotmail account, I believe its better if you set it to As It Arrives as this will save battery life and data charges since you dont log in/off every 5 minutes or so, and you get the new mail instantly

[Q] Stupid, stupid email problem..

I got my Note just a few days ago and I am getting to know it but I'm having a really stupid and annoying email problem.
I have an iPad and a Note and the same gMail account configured on both. When I get an email in the gmail account, the iPad gets it first EVERY time. If I test the email by sending it from my PC, the iPad will get the email in a few seconds. The Note always takes longer. Sometimes 10 seconds, sometimes 20 minutes and occasionally, never at all!!
I've tried both the gMail app (which I hate) and the stock Samsung app (gmail setup as exchange) individually and both together and sometimes one will get email first and the other will get it 10 mins later!
I've also configured my wife's iPhone 4s to get the same emails and that too gets the emails exactly the same time as the iPad.
What on earth's going on?
I had a Galaxy S before the Note and that would get email at exactly the same time as the iPad, every single time.
Auto sync is on, email is on push for both email apps. Both devices are using the same gmail account.
Can anyone please help, I've completely factory reset my Note twice and the problem's still here.

Try this:
Set it up as an Exchange account like this:
enter user name and password
do manual set up
select Exchange
leave domain blank and /your user name as is
leave password as is
change server to m.google.com: 443
select push
Syncs just like any other Exchange account. Should receive everything at the same time.
Thanks. I tried this and it didn't seem to make any difference but I tried something else that seems to have done the trick.
I was previously syncing email, contacts and cals via the gmail account and not using the exchange account. I unchecked ALL the sync items on the 'normal' gmail account ie no contacts, no mail and no cals but checked contacts on the exchange account. Just to recap:
gmail account --> no sync for any items
exchange account ---> sync mail, contacts etc
selecting anything else to sync using exchange seems to have done the trick. It now seems to sync and for the moment, it's getting the email within a few seconds of the iOS devices. Few seconds later later though
Now onwards to tackle the sucky battery life...

Gmail push very very slow

I have my new Lumia 820
I have two email account setup on it
One using the default setup option
One setup as exchange
Both set to "as they arrive"
good 3G signal, brilliant in fact 13.5mbps
Yet the emails do not arrive quickly at all, average 5/10 minute delay, sometimes longer, or 20 minutes later when I've forced an update.
Irritaing as the iPhone 4s I'm trying to escape from is binging instantly on both accounts
In fact Ive set it to 15 minutes pull, we're at the 25 minute point and one of the accounts is not getting the email that's been there 25 minutes waiting for it.
There is something about gmail and Windows Phone. I have found on any WP7 and now WP8 device that gmail will not push emails to the device and all sorts of weird things happen if I try and make that work. Very odd. I set mine to "every 15 minutes" which works fine for me, but it is a pain.
I am close to moving to Outlook.com just to change this!
Creating duplicate named OutLook.com accounts and getting the GMails to forward to these makes it work well
But its a cludge.
You guys are setting up your Gmail as Exchange, right? m.google.com for the server?

Setting peak and off-peak notifications by specific account

Hi,
I am looking to set my work email (exchange) - I have 4 other email account on the phone - to not give notifications (play a sound) during the work day (9am - 5:30pm) because I get too many emails. As soon as the day ends the volume of email drops and I need to be alerted (play a sound) to new emails because the after hours emails tend to be important.
Everything I have found deals with all notifications, I can't seem to get anywhere just changing the one account.
Any help would be appreciated.

Stock email app sync issue with Gmail only- delay, N950W

Hi guys,
i have problem with receiving gmail's on my note8 using stock Email app from samsung which comes preloaded.
There is too much of delay in receiving gmails in this app or sometimes dont even receive emails. but exchange emails work fine with no delay.
Also it happens after long periods of phone sleep would say 7-10 minutes, i wont receive gmail on this email app or comes with big delay. but if i turn manually screen up i instantly receive emails of gmail on email app. I have also chosen auto when received option in email sync.
i have not optimized this Samsung email app for battery optimization as well.
ANY ADVICE WOULD BE appreciated.......
Not sure if this is your issue but with the Samsung email app you can set sync schedule time. But 15 mins is the shortest sync time. Or if it's set to manual then it will only receive emails when you sync manually by swiping down or when you open the app.
Maybe try the gmail app, I believe that one is instant. I use the gmail app for my gmail & I use the Samsung email app for my 2 yahoo accounts.
