Gmail notififications not working

[Guest dbaseii]

Hi Guys

I am not recieving a notification sound when a new email arrives.

I have checked settings and the notification sound is ticked.

I have tried different roms with no luck.

At the moment I'm on the latest Infusion.

Any ideas. This is annoying the hell out of me

Thanks

Same thing here in Costa Rica. NO notifications at all.

I'm starting to think that it's a Google/account problem. Can someone give me a link to show me my android devices

I have found the Gmail app pretty unreliable myself so I use K9 instead. You can sign all your different email accounts into it and set different colours for each account, even different led colours. Also you can set it to poll for new mail at any time interval that fits in with your data plan or the way you use your phone. If you can't get any joy with Gmail then try it out and see.

Thanks rico_89

Will try k9

[Guest palec69]

had something similar,

i removed the gmail account and added it again, worked for me ;)

K9 not working either

I tried everithing, I deleted and recreated gmail account, i stopped and started 'Acount & sync', i restarted the phone. After all of these with gmail app usually i got new email alert after 2 minutes.

Lucky for me that MailDroid is working perfect. In Maildroid i am getting alerts in 15 seconds.

With all of these i am still looking for a solution to fix Gmail app because in theory, Gmail app should use Google 'push' services and it's meaning that Gmail app should use less power.

Did you change the poll frequency from none? Change the poll frequency for all your email accounts added to K9 to 1 minute and then watch them update to make sure your setting are correct. After that you can change it to what ever you want.

As an update.

I dug out my old Smart 858 and setup the same gmail account. No email notifications.

So it looks like a google issue. So how does one fix this?
