After upgrading to lollipop, I can recieve lollipop "heads up" banner notifications on any screen or app except for email. In the case of email, I only recieve a banner notification on the lockscreen. If I recieve an email while using the phone, I only recieve a notification in the status bar, like in Android 4.4x. Gmail is my default email app, but I have tried many others. Notifications are set to "High Priority". Mail is the only app that I've configured that doesn't produce a banner while using the phone. What am I missing? What haven't I cconfigured correctly?

Hi there!
For some reason I lost the text messaging notifications. "1 unread message" does appear when a new message is received, but no more popup notification and sound. Any idea what could be the case?
In settings, notification & sounds, I made sure that a sound is appointed.

I am not sure what is going on here.
Firstly, I use GMAIL as my email account.
I have on my home screen the icon for my mail. However, in the top left hand corner of my home screen is the @ symbol and it tells me I have 100+ email messages, but when I look at my actual email icon on the home screen, there is no notification of any new emails.
When I drag down the @ symbol from the top left hand corner of my screen to look at the 100+ emails, it shows me my inbox, but there are no new messages, just the messages I have already checked and read.
Is their a way to eliminate the @ symbol notification system and only use the widget on the home screen to inform me of new incoming messages real time?
Thank you,
Whiteice
The notification with @ is from Gmail app. the shortcut on your homescreen is from HTCmail.
So if you get a notification like @ then open Gmail app. then you will see your mails.
you can disable this notification in the settings for Gmail.
Also try to manually synchronize your gmail application : use the menu button to refresh or go to the setup to disable the notifications.
Looking for a notification app that lets me customize my notification sounds, seems CM7 only has a general notification sound i can set, i want different sounds for text, mail, voice mail etc. Anyone suggest an app that can do this? Thanks
Depending on the apps you use for text, mail, voicemail ect. you can set up different notification sounds there.
The following Apps offer a separate notification sound:
- LG O2X SMS App
- K9 Mail (separate for each account)
- Google +
- Facebook
...
Is there a way (setting or app) to turn off email notification sounds and still be notified by sound when I get a text.
Or alternatively have dif. Sounds for each.
I get so many emails and I have this cute kitty meowing notification. I wish it only meowed when I got an sms.
I use GOSMSpro and you can set individual settings for custom notifications and icon/LED colors tied to the specific person texting you.
That's the only way I know to get a different notification tone for SMS vs what you have set for other notifications... hope that helps.
Email - menu, email settings, notifications, select ringtone, "silent", ok
Text messages - menu, messaging settings, notifications, select ringtone, "whatever one you want", ok
