Gmail/Settings issue? - Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers

I'm trying to use multiple Gmail accounts on my Note 9 like I have with other phones, but for some reason when I go to add a second Gmail account, another window comes up saying Checking Info... And then settings has stopped working. Anyone else have this issue?

I have 3 separate gmail accounts. I use outlook for android and dont have any issues. I also have 4 other email accounts.
Did you setup your gmail accounts on your phone first before going forward with the email setup?
What email app are you using?
Do you have any power save settings ? This can affect background settings.

The BEST email app I have ever used for multiple emails is K9.

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.

Email app: send from different account

Hi,
I've noticed an issue with sending from different email accounts using the 'Email' app (not Gmail).
I have two Exchange accounts set up on my N7, however if I used the combined view and start composing an email I am unable to change which account the email will be sent from. Likewise if I am in the inbox for 'Account 1' then I am not able to choose 'Account 2' as the from account without coming out of the mail, switching inbox and starting a new email.
This is also a problem when using the 'share via email' capability of some apps, as I can't choose which account will do the sending.
Does anyone else have this issue?
This is also the same on my Gnex, so it's not specific to the device. Both are running stock unrooted 4.2.1

Of course. You also can't edit forwards or quoted text. This makes the stock Email client pretty useless to me.
While it would be nice to have an official Google email client that is worth a damn, in the meantime check out Aquamail.

[Q] Native email problem

I am using the standard email application and am syncing 2 btinternet accounts and 1 gmail.
The problem i have is that on one of the btinternet accounts it keeps syncing old emails and notifying me that i have a 'new' email. If i they mark the email as read or delete it then when the app next syncs it brings up another old email and notifies me i have a 'new' email.
The other issue (and possibly why im getting this problem) is that it only shows the last 25 emails. If i click the load more then it does load more of them but it seems that after a couple of times syncing that i am them back with just the last 25.
Anyone know how to get over this or what the problem might be?
I know there are other apps available but actually i like the simplicity of the standard app. I have tried aqua mail etc but had different sync errors with that .

Stock Email App Deleting Messages

When using a POP3 account with the stock email app I checked "Delete From Server? NEVER" and it deletes the message from my server anyway.
Works fine from all my other phones. Anyone else having the same problem?
Mike
Same problem here
I am in the same boat. It appears that it does not do it immediately, but shortly after deleting. I have double checked my settings and all account say to never delete from server. This is troubling. It appears that the email app on the turbo is very different from all previous droid email apps. Messages saved from previous email apps cannot be opened by the trubo email app.
Anyone have insights on this?
Use New GMAIL App
The new GMAIL app can handle your gmail account plus any other POP / IMAP and even exchange I believe. I have my Hotmail, Yahoo, Gmail and Icloud all setup in the new updated app. Much better than the stock moto email app. Deletion works too. Just a thought:highfive:

Gmail update showed up for me today. Immediately switched out of the Email app. Not sure it will fix what ails ya but, it's a legit contender to make it happen.

I tried the new gmail in both pop3 and imap configuration. When setting it up to never delete from server, it still deltes from server in both gmail and moto email in both pop3 and imap.
Over on turbo moto forum, it seems that moto is now looking into this issue.
Be aware.
Yup, the new Gmail app deletes them too.
Looks like this has been a problem with Google based email since kitkat. Sure glad Google is worried about it... /s

Huawei email client

On trying to configure the built-in email client, the gmail setup errors with "unable to establish connection with server".
I have made contact with Huawei on the matter, and the response was that I had to install Gmail official app. That made me wonder what Huawei is doing with their email app. They have issued the app with a separate setup for gmail account connection, but it does not seem to work. And they recommend using a different app.
Do they not care to maintain their own app? And if so, this being their general attitude to problem solving is disappointing. And leaves an impression of a half-hearted effort in development.
Anybody having found a way to work around the issue?
I find using anything other than the Gmail app to manage my gmail a pain in the ass - not sure why you would want to use Huawei's app for Gmail. The Gmail app is way faster and better to navigate. In saying that, I do have 3 gmail addresses (2 google apps and the other Gmail) so I don't ever need a 3rd party email client.

I agree to using Gmail app, and its benefits. It just struck me that they have this issue and don't address it at all. They could at least have removed the option, as long as it is not working.

Hi guys, I just started using Huawei P10 a few days for work. I setup the email using huawei native client and I like it. But since last night, I notice I didn't received any email. I tried to send email to myself but the email didn't go through. I'm curious and check my email using my laptop. Then I saw few email came in.
Then I'm wondering what's happening here? I press sync few time but came out "Couldn't open connection to server".
I tried removing the email and perform setup again... didn't work either.
Has anyone got the solution why this happens?
I'm not saying the gmail apps is not good, but I prefer in that way. Almost like using outlook.
I have a few gmail/msn address, and they all worked well with native Huawei mail client. no problem.
I am using a BlackBerry z30 now, and I loved the blackberry Hub, is that something similar in android? and free is better, or one time purchase is ok,
