[Q] Galaxy S not updating inbox - General Questions and Answers

Hi
I've not had my Galaxy S long, but I'm having a few problems getting it to receive E-mails without me manually going onto the inbox, where it suddenly finds them. Despite that I have set it to check for mail every 15 minutes, it just doesn't seem to do it. When I look on the inbox, the sync icon is a grey, instead of a white colour, despite having all the settings set to sync every 15 minutes. Anyone got any ideas?
Thanks
Rowan

[Q] Push notification delays

Have you guys noticed any issues with push notifications like new email (Gmail)? For some reason I've noticed the phone reporting new emails and whatsapp messages that are old... often 10+ minutes old. And it seems like it decides to check for messages right after I turn the screen on to check the time or something, then they all come in at once. I have syncing enabled on everything and my N1/Vibrant/MT4G didn't have delays and I had the exact same setups...
I have open another post that I believe is similar to your problem. can you take a look?

[Q] Textfree notifications doesn't come at the same time as text was sent?

i use textfree and the notifications come 20 minutes after the text is sent. I checked the times of the text and they are consistently 20-25 minutes away from the notifications. Would this be due to bad wifi? I wasn't having a problem before i switched to a custom rom or after i switched to a custom rom. The notifications would appear right when the text was sent. (running SenSay rom) Everything was fine, but then textfree started acting up.
I've been noticing this also
Hmmm... My guess would be in the applications settings it refreshs in the background every so often and you should be able to change it to immediately.
That's odd. Mine come in 2 secs before the SMS! I haven't changed any settings.

[Q] Deleting emails not working or lagging

Hi All,
I just recently got a Samsung Focus Flash after my old Focus died. I unlocked it and everything, got it all setup and whatnot back to where my Focus was. The only issue I'm experiencing is that when I go to delete an email in the thread view, unread, it either lags (the email stays on the screen in the list of emails, highlighted as if unread) or it doesn't delete and I have to try deleting it at least once, maybe two more times before it finally disappears... Thoughts?
On my original Focus, when I deleted an email it would disappear from the list immediately. I want this back!
Thanks!

[Q] Elegancia - Screen Timeout & Mail Sync

Posting here since I don't have enough of a count to post in Elegancia thread.
No matter how may times I change my screen timeout, it always reverts to 30 seconds. I've done it from the Setting menu, from third-party utilities... and it looks like it sticks, the new setting shows up... for a while. Later the same day, or the next day, it's back to 30 seconds.
Also, although enabled in Sync settings, my stock email app does not sync in the background - it only ever syncs when I open the app. True for both the Hotmail and Yahoo accounts I have configured. (The Gmail app is always up to date.)
If anyone has any pointers for troubleshooting and/or resolving these issues, much appreciated.
Many thanks to Steve of Elegancia and all those assisting him Fantastic ROM.

Gmail not pushing

Been noticing lately on the S8+ that my emails through the Gmail app arent coming through. I'm receiving no notifications about them unless i open the app and pull it down to refresh. Was working fine when I first received the phone, not sure if anyone else is experiencing this? On T-mobile.
Only thing I can think is maybe something I disabled in package disabler but i doubt thats it. I didnt touch anything to do with gmail
Never had this problem, however for non Gmail accounts added to it, i.e. outlook, after deleting an email, a minute later, the email will reappear. It's getting rather annoying, especially when in deleting 5 at a time, they just come back and seem to go away after the 2nd deletion

I've had the same issue. If i delete them from the lock screen, they show deleted. Reappear for a second, buzz and then vanish. this happened on my stock nexus 6 as well so its not a GS8 thing.

Yes i also had a Nexus 6 and the problem was there too and also sorry I didn't read your post properly but I do get the problem you have. When I go to the app, pull the side panel which shows my email accounts, there will be a badge number over it and I have to pull down to refresh. Same problem happened on my Nexus 6 as well, most likely an app problem

hopefully its an app problem. they also need to fix that delete/double notification thing. especially when you delete like 10 emails, it then buzzes 10 times. super annoying

Any updates on this, I'm no longer getting push notifications for my Outlook account. I have to physically go and refresh.

Yea I am still not receiving emails unless I go in and refresh. This is weird because gmail worked on this phone properly, not sure why it randomly stopped. I tried to send an email and it got stuck on "queued" for a little and then sat on sending for a few seconds as well.
All other push notifications are working fine, instagram, facebook, snapchat, text messages, nest, etc... but gmail isn't working. Not sure if its something i turned off in package disabler? did you use that app at all?
update. i have no idea what i did but its working again.
i went into every gmail setting possible, turned it off and back on again. i forced my google account to resync. i disabled notifications and turned them back on. i disabled network access in the background, then turned it back on. ive tested it a few times by sending emails to myself. i also received a notification from a newsletter as well. it is working for now and im happy. hopefully it doesnt stop.
Yep, not sure what's happening with Gmail but I had this issue now on my Nexus6p....
next question, does anyone know how to get rid of the annoying double notification when deleting an email from the notification bar? if its on my lock screen and i expand them and then delete, it deletes and then a split second later it pops up again and vibrates then vanishes. same thing happened on my stock nexus 6
