I have a Samsung Charge, and I have noticed that every time I receive a new GMail message, I get two notifications.
I started turning off various notification sources, but I still get an audible ring & phone vibration whenever a new GMail message arrives.
Where is the mystery / duplicate notification coming from?
Thanks,

Which notification sources have you turned off?
The GMail app has its own notification source. And, I *think*, you can set it per account (not sure).
There is also Sound setting Notifications, not sure if GMail leverages that or not.
Are you using any third-party email applications?

I have my GMail set for "Email Notifications" disabled. I would think that would be enough to prevent getting GMail notifications.
I also have ADW Notifier installed, but it doesn't really have anything about displaying notifications other than the number bubble. Regardless, I uninstalled ADW Notifier, and didn't see any difference.
I also have K-9 Mail. I turned off all notifications on that, and also saw no effect. K-9 doesn't even interface with my GMail, so I don't see where it would make a difference anyways.
I don't have any other apps that should be associated to my mail programs.
Bump.
I have found that I only get the "Notification That Can't Be Killed" now just with new GMail messages. No other "mystery" notifications are occurring.
To see if I could fix this, I started using the TouchWiz Email application to consolidate all my email accounts, including GMail. I got rid of my K-9 mail app.
Now, I get a silent GMail notification from the TouchWiz Email app (which is what I want), but it seems like I still get an audible default notification tone from Google's GMail application whenever new GMail arrives.
I can't figure out why the GMail app Notifications are occurring. I think I have them all disabled, but I must be missing something ...
Please help ...

I have found one solution to fix this problem, though it shouldn't be necessary:
I purchased "Bloat Freezer", and "froze" the Google Gmail system application.
I'm curious (though, I didn't see many responses to this thread), has anyone tried turning off their GMail notifications in the Google GMail app?
I am wondering if turning off GMail Notifications even works on the SamChg.
I'll try later this evening when I'm not at work.
I actually always run my phone in silent mode, I am kind of against ringtones, chimes, etc. and thus have never had any issues with Gmail notifications because I've never needed to really turn them off.
I'll report back.

Thanks, burningembers! I'll be interested in what you find out.
BTW, I don't know if this is important, but I am running the Debloated v.4 ROM.
Sent via my Borg implant over the VZW network.
I have another nugget of information on this problem.
I unfroze the GMail application, and set my SamChg to sync my GMail again. However, in the GMail application, I set a different notification tone than the default notification.
Now, when I receive a new GMail, I get 2 audible notifications: One for the newly selected notification tone in the GMail application, and a second tone that is my default notification tone. Sometimes, they will play simultaneously.
I'm guessing that undesired, second "default" notification tone is generated as a result of the Google "account sync" itself.
How can I turn this off? And, again - Can anyone test this out for me to see if it is a global problem, or just my configuration?
Thanks!
I have recently started using GoSMS and have noticed that if I reply to an SMS within the same minute then my reply appears before the received text.
I don't see the seconds on the timestamp when I view message details so the app is obviously sorting my date hh:mm and takes priority of messages sent than received.
Is this a bug in GoSMS or a limitation of Android?
I know I can change the sort order but then this puts messages in the wrong order if I receive a message late.

Hi,
I present a new application, compatible with Gmail for Android (versions for Ice Cream Sandwitch and higher).
I will implements recurrent notifications for unread messages (in inbox or prioritary inbox).
Due the limitations of the Gmail API, that exports the total unread messages count, nor the messages, the notifier can't detect new messages in certain scenarios.
By example:
The notifier works fine in this cases:
* Receive a new message
* Read messages in the device
The notifier not detects a new message if
* You have X unread messages and (in another device, like PC) you read Y messages and Z new messages are arrived before next phone sync (and Y + Z < X)
In other cases, the app works fine.
Comments are welcome!
For use it, you can disable ringtone notifications (setting notification sound to silent) in Gmail (prioritary or normal inbox depending of your choice), but not notifications (i like gmail notifications and I don't have included in my app),
the go my app and configure repeats, sound and vibration the enable the service in the top-right of the screen.

not working for me
I am running android 4.1.1 and gmail v4.2.1. App doesn't seem to do anything.
I configured:
1. Gmail app notification on but silent.
2. On your app picked acct, turned off priority inbox (to monitor plain inbox), picked ringtone, turned off silent hours.
3. To enable, the on/off switch says off in gray (when disabled it says on in blue - a little confusing).
When new Gmail comes through, I am only getting the standard Gmail visual notification. No sound.
Am I missing something?
I really want this to work because I too like the standard Gmail notification, I just want it to repeat.

It works now (D'oh!). I swear I tried both toggles before. Oh well, thanks:good:
Well, I still have a couple suggestions:
1. Change the on/off to "enabled" and "disabled". The problem is that on/off refers both to the state of on and off and to the process of turning on and turning off, so you're never quite sure what you're doing when you push the button.
2. If possible, and this sounds more complicated, make the beeping stop after the notification in the pull down has been dismissed, even if the email hasn't been read. The reason I like the standard Gmail notification is because you can see what the email is straight from the notification area and dismiss it without even opening Gmail. But if you keep on getting beeps, you have to open it anyway, so there's no point.

Hi,
Happy to known that's working for you!
1)
love the switch, i think don't need to be changed.
2)
not possible to make that, due to the limitations of the Gmail API, that exports only the label names and the number of unread messages, but with the new Gmail app (published just a few minutes ago), you can archive emails from the notifications bar

I agree the on/off is attractive, but now you must click the on button to turn off and click the on button to turn off. Could just change button assignments so that clicking off disables and clicking on enables.

sorry,
possibly i don't understand, but i think the switch is ok.
if switch value is "on" (blue color) the app monitorizes the gmail inbox or prioritary inbox and notifies the new messages (and the repeats)
if switch value is "off" (gray color) the app don't monitorizes (and don't repeats).
is not?

Yes, the blue color indicating on is great. Playing with it some more, what confused me is that when it's on and blue and you press the on (right side of switch) it changes state and vice versa for off.
So when it's blue (on), only the left side of switch should respond to touch. You should not be able to turn off by clicking "on" or turn on by clicking "off". The fact that I was confused says something (besides "what an idiot!").
But anyway, I'm really curious about the new Gmail version. I went to update and nothing showed as an available update.

Select "Until all messages read" in "repeats count"
Version 2.0.0 has been released, that includes customizable preferences foreach gmail account...
So my BBM has always had the persistent notification icon that BBM says you should have in order to get messages quickly and then when I get a new BBM message I got a second notification icon that has the red exclamation point.
I just read that someone said on the S4 that there is only one notification icon and when a message comes in that one icon changes to the one with the red exclamation point when a new message comes in.
So, which is the correct way?
I have also been having a problem lately with BBM, messages are not coming through to me unless I open the app, once I open it up I get messages that were sent much earlier in the day. Anyone else having this issue and know of the cause and any fix?
Thanks
Wait, people still use BBM?
Having one icon pop up, you can do that by disabling the BBM Connected notification.
Delayed messages, I don't know about. Sorry ;(
Maybe the app is getting killed?

I have one persistent icon, and when I get a message, the persistent icon has a red star on it. So in total, never more then one icon

See this is the strange issue, my persistent icon never changes but I get a second icon with a red exclamation mark or red start (not sure) when a new message comes in.
So this is strange that some people get two icons and some get one with the persistent icon setting turned on.
bbm don't work on latest kikat, only get notifications if app is open or just been closed.. ever since 4.4.1
other message apps get round the problem, but BlackBerry don't seem capable

Thanks, this is what is happening with me I believe. If I don't open BBM in the morning my wife will send me a message but it never comes through. She then texts me and I open up BBM and then they come through, but once I open, it does seem to work fine for the remainder of the day.
I will have to monitor it to see but it looks like I am going to have to stop using it because of this. And I find it so strange that I get two icons when others only get the one.
Thanks
I have been noticing this for a while now but I can't seem to receive notifications from the Twitter whether my tweet was retweeted, quoted, favorited, etc. Its crucial that I get notifications or else I wouldn't know who replied to certain tweets until I manually check.
In the app settings itself, I checked everything to where I receive notifications from mentions, favorites, retweets, etc and whenever I back out a toast message pops up saying "You can only attach 25 devices" and it unchecks everything that I checked in the notification settings. Thus, I can't receive notifications for some reason.
Im wondering if other S3 users are getting this same error or are able to get notifications in the statusbar? I'm running Carbon 3/03 nightly android 4.4.2
