Got my fiancee a Moto G for xmas (btw now I'm jealous cuz it's much better than my GS3!)
Anyway, it's got the Google Search app, updated to the latest version, but the Google Now option (in settings) is missing. there are no cards etc.
It works fine on my GS3, so I doubt the issue is location related..
Anyway has the same issue or a way to fix it?

It's either location or Google Account related, if there is nothing to show, it won't show cards.
Did you add Google account in Accounts and Privacy in Google Now settings?

Did you open the "Google Settings" app and click on Search?
I spent ages last night trying to work out why cards wouldn't work, other than the weather. Then i figured out that it thinks in a business account holder.
Anyone know how to fix this? Google now is turned off for your domain
I seem to be on now, still no cards apart from weather :-\

Yes. That is where the "Google Now" option is not available on the Moto G! it is available on my GS3..
Remove then re add the Google account,or try adding a new or alternate Google account
I have tried your suggestions but still have this issue. Also the kit kat update arrived but Google now is still not available! Any other suggestions?
I made a dookie and erased my internal storage . Can anyone be so kind as to post the .ogg files for the Hangouts Message, Hangouts Ringtone, and Calendar Notification?
Thanks

I've got the Calendar notification here:
https://mega.nz/#!8BE1QSSQ!BSRuByba_n_C4MtmFoeIbDTzXWDmNrulVbvlqfPiQkQ
I can't seem to find the Hangouts notification sound on my phone, yet I know I've got it..........I'll keep looking around for it, push comes to shove you might simply try searching the Google for Hangouts.ogg or something like that, see what comes up.

Thanks. I believe it's in the Notifications folder.

Yup, here's the message notification (SMS/Hangouts Chat):
https://mega.nz/#!JMMRTaqC!K4PEuYguntlYN_5Qs7swfkNSQsfUk0lXxuRazvNHm9Y
And here's the Hangouts Call notification, if you use Hangouts for video/phone calls, just in case you needed that too:
https://mega.nz/#!xQ8GTLDb!ecuHZPTqyz4UmZArMSv9RzBeGWY3TiCUuU3T6MVWMgc
Hope these helped, let me know if you can't access them for some reason, and I'll see if I can attach them to a post.
Thanks doode!:good:

MailDroid is my standard mail app, used it on many phones. But I'm having trouble using it on the Mate. When a message comes in the notification sound is cut off very quickly or doesn't sound at all.
The developer says the app works OK on the latest Android, but I think it might be related to the unusual Huawei chipset.
Is anyone else here using MailDroid?
I use it and it works just fin, NO notifications problems.

What settings are you using for Connection Management?
I'm using Stay Connected on WiFi, and Close Connection on mobile with check mail every three minutes. inc while sleeping. I've tried other settings but the problem stays the same.

I am having the same issue. Any resolution? I have tried different stock sounds as well as my own; all get cut off or play for a split second.
Still no fix here. I thought it might be due to the Mate's very strict battery saving. But I've tried all the settings without success.
I know MailDrid's tech support were looking into it - perhaps you could drop them an email?

I sent an email to the Dev. We'll see what happens. I am like you, love Maildroid and have used the paid version for years. I have MD on my Mate8 and I do not have this issue with the notification sounds.
It's a real pain only getting a short beep, always a danger of missing emails coming in.
It doesn't happen with the built-in Mail app, but that is nowhere near as good.
If you hear something, please come back here. I'll do the same.

I have an email into the dev, but no response yet. Did you get a response? How did you contact them? I could have sworn they had a Google+ page or something similar where I posted an issue and within an hour he posted a response. I can't find that group anymore.

I emailed to the address on the Maildog Pro page on Android Play. Got a reply to say they are working on it. If you didn't get a reply I would try again.
They do have a forum but it seems to be disfunctional.

Thanks. I sent a follow-up email, still no reply. What are you using in replacement in the meantime? I tried AquaMail - seems ok. Blue Mail, Outlook + myMail look nice, but not customizable.
I really need an app that is customizable where I can have multiple accounts, be able to specify Reply-To, etc
I'm using BlueMail at the moment. As you say it's not as flexible but at least you can hear when you get a message.

Try this... activate notifications in the Gmail app. Turn sounds + icon notifications off in Maildroid. Place a Maildroid widget on your Home Screen which shows the badge count of new emails. When Gmail sound-notifies, open via Maildroid. Once the message is read, the Gmail notification icon disappears from Notifications Bar.
PS... still no response from the dev from my 2 emails.
Thanks! I'll try that, and give the developer another email

Still no fix or response from dev, There have been (2) updates to the app since our last posts; none fix the issue.
Yes, I've been following it. I'm not at all sure that this is 100% a MailDroid fault. Some other email apps are affected, some aren't.
I gave up. I switched to AquaMail Pro. Very similar and highly customizable. $4.99. No notification/sound issues!
Hi guys im using stock mail app but I don't like that it synchronize gmail,yahoo and Hotmail every 15 minutes... Is there any mail app that synchronize "on time"?

You mean to say push ? For that you will have to use some other email client

I'm new to Honor and EMUI and i'm having trouble with push notifications with Gmail, specifically that it seems to be completely broken and I only know i've recieved email when i manually unlock my phone and check. I've been all through the settings pages of Gmail and EMUI to make sure notifications are on and that Gmail is allowed to run in the background but so far i've not found anything that fixes the issue. It also seems that Gmail is a system process rather than an app so Gmail often doesn't show up in the various app lists for controling battery management/optimisations etc. I'm on EMUI 5 on my UK spec phone if that matters.
Anyone come across this before?
Thanks
Do you have unlimited data enabled for Gmail? My phone had that problem
Nope, that was not enabled. I'll enable it and see what happens.
Is your Gmail app the latest version?

Yup, everything is up to date. There's doesn't seem to be any real logic to it either, sometimes an email notification will come straight through and then another email minutes later wont. I'm pretty sure it's doing for Facebook Messenger too.

Is your Play Services the latest version? Because it manages the GCM notifications that Gmail uses.

I've exempt Gmail from optimization, sync is all one, no data restrictions etc.
I definitely dont get notifications during deep sleep, they only came through this morning once i'd turned the screen on.
Rommco05 said:
You lost too much if u make factory reset?

I've already done that
Actually, I haven't exempt it from optimization because Gmail doesn't even show up in the list, I think because it's seen as a system process rather than an app.
