[Completed] [Q] Email for Notifications?? - XDA Assist

Hi, this is probably a really simple question and I hope this is the right place to ask.
I would like to receive an email whenever I receive a new notification on this site.
I just can't seem to find where to enable it in settings.
Thanks

Hi,
On a browser, not an app, you can select email notification when you subscribe to a thread. The emails are not necessarily instant though, they can be delayed... So you know.
?

Hi Darth, thanks for the reply.
Though that's not exactly what I am after.
I am following a ROM release thread and would like to receive an email whenever a new version of the rom is released. I have clicked "Follow Project" and when roms are released I get a notification in the notifications tab under "DevDB Updates" but I can't find a way to have it email me when this occurs. If I subscribe to the thread I get an email whenever anyone posts in the thread which isn't what I am after.

AFAIK we don't support this feature yet (I haven't seen it in any of my options either) though it can be suggested [URL=" http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1987254" ]here[/URL]

what does "Watch this topic for replies" do on thi

what does "Watch this topic for replies" do on this website (which can be found at the bottom of a post)? i thought it makes a list somewhere in my login account or somehow alerts me so i can more easily trace the ones i'm interested in piled up in those millions and millions of posts. can somebody pls explain, thanks?
No it doesn't make a list somewhere but send you a mail when a new message is posted in a thread.
well, that's strange then, cos i've never received any notifications by email when there's a new reply (whether it's my own topics or ones i want to watch). i've just re-checked my "profile" and my email addrs is correct, and that all the notifications were "yes" (as attached). and every time i post, "Notify me when a reply is posted" is also ticked. is there another setting somewhere?
That's odd. I usually get duplicate notification (2 messages per update) but only for the last topic I posted to. I don't think they save a list, just one topic per user.
Works ok for me
I watch about 15 topics & receive an email after each post. Although it would be nice to see all sucscribed topics in a list.
so wot am i doing wrong?? can anyone see anything suspicious in my profile settings?
Your profile settings look ok. Does your email account have some kind of spam filter? It is possible that the messages get blocked for some reason by the mail server. You should try a different email (there are plenty of free ones out there)
oh my gosh... I changed from a hotmail to another email addrs...and it's working, thanks a million. It must have been the hotmail spam filter.

wake on eMail?

All,
I'm wondering if somebody already discovered the tweak to let the Leo wake up when a new eMail arrives like it will do by receiving a SMS.
May I did not find it through the search function, but if already posted/solved I would ask you for the link.
This feature will be awesome as of I receive more eMails then SMS
Cheers,
Prinz
edit:// please move thread to the right
This is non-working on every HD2 ROM to date. HTC tech support has been told this repeatedly, but they continue to deny there's a problem. Until such time as they wake up and fix it, using the latest PhoneAlarm beta seems to be the only workaround. http://www.pocketmax.net/smf/index.php?topic=8009.0
Thx so far, but this is not my intension
I wanted to have this with MS standarts, not with 3rd party software.....damn...

[Q] Gmail won't allow to respond to calendar invites

Hi
I've searched for a solution to this problem and cannot find it. It either seems to work for people or it doesn't. As I understand it since a Gmail update at the end of last year this should work. So why isn't it for me?
The problem is when I receive a calendar invite in my email, on my old Galaxy S3 it would need to open the ICS in Calendar for me to be able to accept it. This was not ideal but it worked and I was never able to improve it. In my new Oneplus, it's even worse - if the invite is from Outlook I just get a blank email, with no ICS let alone yes/no options. From Google Calendar, I get weblinks and it takes me to a browser version of the calendar.
I cannot get my head round this, how can it be that the iPhone app by default has simple yes/no/maybe buttons that work in the email without jumping to any other app, but on Google's own phone it seems to have a problem with such a basic feature?
Please help, driving me mad! :crying:
Cheers
No-one?
OK, so can someone help me out with how this SHOULD work?
Here's what I see in the iOS app with an invite from Outlook:-

And here is what I see in Android:-

If the invite is from gmail, iOS works exactly the same but Android shows up like this, with weblinks:-

Is this the same for everyone? If you see something different can you please post it and help me work out why I see something different? Surely Google's own OS should be able to handle calendar invites at least as well as it's app on iOS?!
Thanks!
Slightly shocked that not one person has replied with simply whether they see the same as me or not. Guess I'll have to go elsewhere
Same Here

In the past, I had "Invitation Plugin" installed to be able to add the invitations to my calendar. But now, since there is no attachment or .ics or anything, even that doesn't work. I get the same "blank" emails as you. This is very frustrating as my wife and I use invitations for everything. She sends them, and I have to get to a PC to open my Gmail to see (and accept) the invitations. Very frustrating when this used to work.
I hope somebody has some answer/workaround for this.
I found a workaround. There's an app called Cal by any.do. It's just a calendar app, but, it does have an indicator/filter that shows pending invitations and allows you to accept/deny and notifies the meeting chair. This is mildly better than searching the entire calendar trying to find the pending invite.
So, when the email comes in, pop over to Cal and do the needful. Not perfect, but better than where I was before.
Thanks for replying, nice to know I'm not alone in this issue Yeah me and the wife do exactly the same
Yep, Cal seems to provide a workaround of sorts, thanks for sharing it. Seems utterly nuts that Google should make their own solutions work better on a competitive platform to their own. Very very poor
If anyone else has any solutions or comments would love to hear them
Cheers
same problem here
I'm running the latest gmail update (v 5.0) on KitKat and I get the same problem - google calendar invites present a links only that take me to a webpage. on gmail for my iPad get big easy buttons to use. How is it possible that the experience is better on iOS than Android?
Same problem here. Confirmed that it is because the invitation is from Outlook. Why is there no solution? Seems like the bug is on the Android Gmail client.
Still no solution available in June - as far as I can tell - is this some kind of spat with Microsoft?
It's a real PITA whatever it is...not what I expected running the latest software versions available.

I am facing the similar issue. My problem is bigger - I get at least 30-35 outlook exchange invites on my gmail account and my Gmail App shows just the emails (it doesn't show the date and time) which is sad. All the time, I have to check the calendar app, open each invite / meeting requests and select - Yes / No / Maybe from the Calendar. I so wish that the Android Gmail App comes up with a simple feature (just like you have shown for iOS Gmail App.) so that at least we will know that the email which we have received is an actual Outlook Meeting invite and not a standard email. Can somebody please contact Google Android department and raise this issue? I have tried to report this on the official Google App. Gmail forum but no luck on their response so far.
Again, thanks for bringing this up here on XDA.

Stop this forum from sending gmail to me

Hi...how can I prevent this forum from sending me email? Every time someone quotes one of my posts, gmail receives an email. I have turned off all email notifications in the settings for this website. If I set gmail to not notify me then I receive NO notifications on my phone that my gmail inbox has received an email...obviously I don't want that...since friends email me etc. I thought it might be a Chrome thing...but I have set everything there to never notify me of anything.
The only way I can stop this forum from emailing me when someone quotes my post is to disable notifications in gmail...since I can't handpick websites I don't want to receive email from...that just cancels ALL notifications as I said before.
By the way, I am NOT 'subscribing' to any threads either...so that's not the problem.
So what am I doing wrong?
thanks
Have you tried this:
1 - Click on Settings on the top right, next to your username.
2 - From the options on the left, choose the last one titled "Settings" under "Mention System"
3 - Check the last option, titled "Quote Emails" which has the description "Check this box if you do not wish to receive an email whenever you are quoted in a post."
4 - Save changes
Should work. Else, use filters in gmail to auto delete such emails...
Wow thanks a lot
'Mentions'...the only thing I didn't check. That'll teach me!

issues with twitter notifications on gear s2

hello everyone
im new to the forum but didnt find any related existing thread on it so i decided to post, im the happy owner of a gea s2 classic and so far im very happy with it, just have 2 issues:
-notifications from twitter show correctly, and i see the actions if i click the 3 little dots: reply, retweet and favorite, however when selecting any of those, it show "error!", thefore not letting me do anything with these notifications, even though the options are here. reply options work well for every other notifications where they are allowed (whatsapp, email, messenger, etc)
- i cannot seem to make s voice understand punctuation when dictating a message:when i say "coma", or "period", it liteally writes down the word instead of writting the signs, any tips?
thanks for any help!

well i went to my gear manager app and selected the apps that i wanted to get notifications from and started receiving twitter notifications, when you open the 3 little dots on the notification it gives you the reply, retweet and favorite that tweet that you are being notified of, but when selecting any of these options, it gives "error" message, so why are the actions for twitter notifications enabled if they dont actually work, samsung support is no help...
I'm having the exact same issue with Twitter notifications and of course Samsung Support is of no help. I see the options to reply, favorite, re-tweet, etc. but it always fails.
Solutions?
Wondering if anyone has a fix for this, Samsung support is something to be desired. There brilliant idea and only solution is to reset the the watch. Which was a waste of time and did not fix the problem. It's it a settings issue? Thanks
