[Q] Email notifications disappear after froyo 2.2 update - Captivate General

Just installed froyo 2.2 on my captivate and now my email notifications disappear. This is occurring with both pop3 and imap mail. What I have noticed is that when I get a new email I get the notification and it ill remain until the next time it checks for new mail. Once it does that and there isn't any new mail the notification will disappear. Has anyone else experienced this and do you or anyone else have a solution?

I have the same problem: email notification disappears shortly after email received. Indeed, the notification sound stops playing half way through.
Did you ever resolve your issue, and if so, how?
Thanks.

Mine too does this, but not all the time. Weird. I have found no solution.

I have two yahoo accounts and I got the same problem on kb1. With the yahoo app though it doesn't happen and it uses push notification and just seems faster than the stock email app. The other email apps might do the same thing, its worth a shot.

I'm having the same problem since the 2.2 update. No solution found yet.

Same problem here. Only happens with the regular mail app configured to use an exchange account, and doesn't happen every time. Gmail app works fine.

I have the same problem.
I have my work exchange email configured through the email app. When an email arrives, the sound plays half way through and the notification goes away.
It's really annoying, because now I can't trust the notification bar. I have to actually open the email app to see if I have a new email.... Which completely defeats the purpose of the notification bar.

HTC Mail Notifications

Hi!
I'm having 2 problems with the mail notifications:
1. Sporadically loosing notifications.
Sometimes, my Email-notification just won't work.
That is, I receive an email but it won't vibrate, notify or play the sound :S
There's like 2-3 seconds before the app updates and there I can see that there is a new email and sometimes when it updates and there is even newer mail, those will be downloaded after update is complete.
2. Sounds and vibrates twice.
When I do get an email notification, the phone alerts and vibrates twice, even though there is only one notification in the statusbar and only 1 email recieved.
This started after I updated to 2.21.401.10
I have re-added the account and turned off notifications in the Gmail-app..
Any ideas?
I'm also having the issue of my One S not playing any notification sound when I receive a mail.
I don't have "refresh on open" set up, so I know it's an older message sitting there in my inbox, but no notification about it. Is it btw. normal that all the mail I receive is already marked as read?
EDIT: Running stock Rom with the 4.0.4 Android OTA Update and using IMAP on Yahoo Mail.
I found something related to issue #2...
When I get an email and doesn't clear it from the notification bar, it chimes every 5 minutes to remind me. Loving it during the night!
Maybe this is the culprit to the whole issue...So how do I get rid of it?

my one s also not playing sounds or vibrating for new emails. even though its all been enabled in settings
Same here: One S playing notification sound twice upon receiving new email. It happens just sometimes, apparently random. Never had this issue until 2.21...
I think that push mail also doesn't always work: a few times it seems to not download email until I wake the phone. Not sure on this though.
Mine doesn't notify me for text messages at time.
Has someone ever solved the problem of the email notification ringing twice?

Notifications - Don't automatically clear...

I have a question about the clearing of notifications. I have the international version. I have noticed that when I get a notification, say a text message, or an email, when I click on it, it takes me to the application. I look at the message or email and go about my business.
The notification still shows in the shade as if I haven't looked at the message. I have to swipe it clear. I don't have this problem on my other phones. It's kind of a niggle with me right now. I enjoy everything else with phone. Anyone else having this issue? It happens with stock messaging, google messaging, sometimes with inbox, nine mail, mailwise mail, stock email app...
It sures is a bug, I don' have that.
Have you installed Good lock ?

no. If others aren't experiencing this, perhaps I should reset, and re-road my apps. Wonder if it has to do with LED-Blinker pro....it's an app I have installed that controls the LED notifications similar to light flow...that'll be the first app I remove...
and the culprit was LED-Blinker Pro...removed and issue is gone...

email notifications issues

I switched off the stock email APP because it was showing the wrong number of mails on the icon.
I went back to Bluemail which I had used on my Moto Z without issue, took that off and now have Typeapp but same problem - no incoming email notification sound on either?
Any thoughts?

OK if you have done all the necessary settings (all permissions, notifications settings, ignoring Android optimization) then....
You have the same problem either if you leave the app open in resent apps?
This is a more general problem than just with BlueMail.
If you look back a few weeks you'll find a thread about MailDroid, that doesn't give a proper notification tone. I've had to change to Blue Mail, and it does notify properly for me. However when I first used it the app didn't always pick up a mail until I brought it out of lock. It seems to be OK now.
I think this is down to the Mate's aggressive battery-saving that is supposed to learn about app use.
And yes, I have checked the app settings and the phone settings over and over to make sure they are right.
Thanks for the replies. I tried another 3 APPS and all failed to play the notification when I sent a test mail from my PC.
I ended up back with an oldie I haven't used for years - K9 - and all is working as it should.
Not the most up to date look but if it works I'll settle for that. Four APPS with all the settings to key in and then delete it took me to midnight last night... enough was enough
Glad to hear you have found a substitute that works.
With so many different apps being affected, I'm sure there is a system problem with notifications. Hopefully this will be sorted with a future update.
Outlook works fine. Gmail is worse.

No notification vibrations for gmail?

As the title describes, although I am using a Pixel 2 rather than a samsung phone. Gmail notifications will not vibrate on the watch but will show notifications dots, etc. Other apps' notifications will vibrate properly, even the Google Inbox app. I figured this could be something widely discussed as most people use Gmail, but searching in the forums didn't really show a lot of results. I am wondering if anyone has encountered the same problem and is there a fix to it. Gmail notifications come through, but just won't vibrate the watch

I also found out that this is a android thing as well, I have an iphone laying around and will work just fine with the gear, vibrations and notifications.
Same here
I'm also getting this issue with Gmail only(email comes to watch but no vibration to let me know if phone isn't nearby), has anyone found a solution? For my text messages I found that enabling Textra, and the default Android messages made that now vibrate when I receive a notification. But I can't find any default Android mail on the app list?
Same problem here. S3 Frontier with a Pixel 2 XL. Knowing that Inbox (Outlook works as well) works helps, but I'd like to use Gmail since it gives the full email to my wrist.
EDIT:
Just noticed that Hangouts messages don't vibrate or make sounds either. Anyone else found other apps? I'm wondering if it's a Google thing, though Inbox working would argue against that...
EDIT AGAIN:
Hangouts message just vibrated. It's definitely consistent with Gmail, but now I'm wondering if there's some random element to this. Or if I'm just going crazy. lol
Hello. Same problem here with my Samsung Gear Sport and Oneplus 3T. It's driving me crazy. I haven't tested the Inbox app yet, but I installed Outlook as an alternative to Gmail (which I didn't uninstall). I received one vibration for one first mail via Outlook and then it stopped as well, no vibrations anymore for incoming mails. I have verified all my settings in the Gear app and in the Gmail, Outlook app. My phone is getting the notifications (sound, vibration, icon on top), but on the watch I only have a pop-up of the mail and the small dot on the watch face, but no vibrations. Vibrations work fine with the calendar and the step counter.
My Gear recently (I'm not sure for how long really) stopped giving ANY notifications at all. I've checked all the setting in both the Gear app and Oreo to no avail. It's not much of a Smartwatch if it won't do notifications at all. That's half the reason I bought it (HR monitoring is the other 50%).
I had the same problem with Gmail on my Sport 3. I also use TypeApp as my default email client on phone linked to Gmail. If you allow notifications for this app on the phone (in settings>notifications), then allow notifications in Gear you will get vibrations for all email received. Its not quite as fast at receiving email as the native Gmail client, but it does work. I don't have any other notification issues other than the Gmail one.
I use Inbox (by Google) to receive Gmail emails, instead of Gmail itself. The notifications work for me.

I also have the same problem using my Honor View 10 with my GS3.
When receiving GMAIL new email, the message shows directly on screen without making my watch ring or vibrate.
Using Inbox solves the issue but :
- messages are truncated : only few lines are displayed, there are less options.
- Inbox notifications on my phone (android 8.0) are different : it only shows an small icon on the upper notification bar whereas gmail shows a full popup with message and action buttons. So using Inbox is not good for me
If anyone has a full workaround, please get my thanks in advance.
I have been having this issue since I went on the beta Oreo on my S8. I thought it was an issue with that and I am hoping once the official Oreo comes my notification vibrations will return. After reading this I am now not so sure.
Definitely a problem within Oreo. No vibration on Gear for gmail for me and also not for Viber, though reverting to older Viber helped but I noticed differences in notification options between older and newer Viber. My guess is that Oreo tries to manage notifications differently for some apps that allow it to and this messes up the Gear notification somehow.
Same here. Was working fine with Note 8, switched to Pixel 2 XL and now I'm not getting vibrations for Gmail notifications. Everything else appears to be notifying correctly.
Similar issue for me
I have the original Pixel XL and everything has been working fine for 3 months. Then about 3-5 days ago I started not getting notification sounds or vibrations on my Gear s3 frontier for gmail or text messages. I have tried resetting both the phone and gear multiple times and starting over completely and it doesn't work. Pretty useless when those two are the most important to me.
Try uninstalling updates for the app. Worked for me with android messages for the exact same problem. It's the only thing that worked actually. Hope this helps!
Seems to be related to native Google apps running on Oreo devices. I noticed that my Google Assistant Reminders also don't vibrate on my watch but Google Hangouts is OK - so hit or miss. I use Textra for SMS so no issues with that.
Same here. Since I updated to Oreo gmail vibration stop working. Galaxy s8 + Frontier
Same thing here, I updated my S8 to oreo and gmail nots don't vibrate. I realized that from time to time incoming calls neither. Even some kind of reminders do the same. Before updating the phone everything was running ok...
I'm having issues with email notifications from the stock Sammy mail app not showing on my Gear....
It's not even listed in the Gear app.
Tried reinstalling the app and resetted the watch.
This issue appeared when I resetted my phone after flashing oreo.
Any suggestions?

Gear S update resolved Gmail notifications for me.

Weird gmail notifications returning after being dismissed issue.

I'm getting this weird issue where when I dismiss notifications from gmail, they will immediately come back and then dismiss themselves again one by one.
Easier to show than to explain, so here's a video: https://photos.app.goo.gl/PnGCYlIdcX5ua4Ji2
It's really annoying, especially since the notifications are also sent to my gear S2 watch which then just buzzes like crazy as my phone is cycling through all the notifications.
I've used all the google-fu I know and came up with pretty much nothing, so I'm hoping someone here can help me figure this out.
Potentially related: I get notifications for new e-mails pretty much as soon as they come in, but if I go to gmail on my computer and read or delete that e-mail, the notification won't update. It definitely used to, and I'm not really sure when that changed.
Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks!
I'm unable to play the video to see the notification . . . my internet is terrible right now. Perhaps you could just put up a single photo of the notification, or enter the text into your original post?
Check your setting for "Notification Reminders" under the Accessibility tab & find what you may have unknowingly switched on.
Happened to me once, I know how annoying it can be lol.
Hope this helps!
I get the same thing. Seems to be nothing to do to stop it however you may be able to reduce it to one notification in the gmail app settings just go to the app settings tap your email then about halfway down tap inbox, sound and vibrate and make sure notify for every msg is unchecked. Hope this helps.
I appreciate all the suggestions, unfortunately none of them seem to be the solution for me ...
JeffDC - A photo won't show anything, it will either show notifications there, or not, while the issue is when I dismiss a notification, it then comes back again after ~1 sec as another notification, then dismisses again after another couple of seconds, instead of properly dismissing the first time around.
og21 - Notification reminders were already off in accessibility settings.
wombat_combat - Notify for every message is already unchecked.
I get the same, haven't found a fix, but haven't looked hard either.
I suppose theirs still no solution? Been happening to me for months.
Same thing here. Haven't been able to find a solution. Galaxy S10 and only happens for my work email inside the secure folder.
Tagging this one again since it appeared on my google search.
On my previous Galaxy S8+ when I dismissed the notifications (notification shade) occasional a gmail notification (one just dismissed) would pop back up then immediately dismiss itself.
On my new S20 FE when I dismiss the notifications occasionally a gmail notification (one just dismissed) pops back up as if it was a new notification and stays there until dismissed again.
This happens when I clear it from the notifications and as soon as I swipe up the Gmail notification shows again. It's been happening for a while and I don't know how to tell them to fix it.
2021, this is still happening to me all the time. Gmail notifications come back to haunt me after clearing them. Sometimes they disappear after a few seconds, sometimes I have to dismiss them again.
Pixel 5.
I do have a suspicion it might be caused by Samsung Wear, maybe I'll remove notification access from it to see...
Update: ^ didn't work -.-
Same here. Stock Pixel 4a. Only one Google Account set up (which is a quite old Google Apps account).
Edit: The issue was also present on my former mobile, a Nokia 6.1, also running Stock firmware.
I'll bump this, too - same issue for months, Gmail notification pops (w/audio) immediately after I dismiss it. Have also tried all the "Google-fu" I know.
Pixel 4 XL - A11, stock and updated.
November 2021.
Still the same..
This is getting annoying AF.
Android should be better than IOS because it let the users control everything.
But what is with this crap.
I could not find any solution to let the notification notify ONLY when something new comes....
But I haven't tried hard either...
Anyone got any solution on this?
Go to your Gmail settings. General settings. Click on account. Scroll down to "nudges". Turn off. Repeat for each account.
