Nokia N97 :: Automatic Retrieving Email Notifications?
Jan 6, 2010
I would need to get an alert when new emails arrive on my N97. I have tried to set the email programme to Automatic Retrieval > E-mail notifications/Auto-update - but even if I leave the email programme running, I don't get any notifications. What is wrong?
I am using Microsoft Exchange with Active Sync through my email provider, Intermedia. The sync has been erratic at best. I have put all of the email settings to Auto; however, most of the time it only syncs when I push the email icon. I've tried calling Samsung and AT&T - even had a remote session with AT&T. They could find nothing set up improperly. I've deleted and re-installed the email app a few times. I got it to work over the weekend, but yesterday, it stopped syncing again. I would even delete specific emails from the phone and a few minutes later, they would show up as unread.
I've called my email provider and went through troubleshooting with them, to no avail. Everything was setup properly. I've wiped the system cache a few times. I just tried the following: deleted the exchange email setup from the phone (again for the 3rd time); went into application manager and cleared the data from every "email" app that was in there (email - there were two, email synch, email storage, etc). Then I shut down the phone and did another wipe of the system cache. Then I installed the email app again.
Now it seems to be working. I'm just afraid that, after a period of time, it will stop working. My 14 day period ends on Thursday. I'm thinking about exchanging this phone for another S6. However, what if it happens on that phone. I've asked AT&T and Samsung if they have any information in their database regarding this issue and they both said no. I even tried to use the Microsoft Outlook app. But it doesn't appear to be able to work with Active Sync (I can't put my email server parameters in there).
From time to time, I experience that my Xperia X10 does not automatically sync e-mail accounts (using the supplied/standard e-mail application). I've set up a number of e-mail acocunts (6) with different update rates ranging from 15 to 60 minutes. I can go in to one of the accounts, whereby it syncs and I can see that I have received a number of new e-mails (for a period more than 6-12 hours, without receiving any type of notification.
This is really annoying since I miss important emails. What can be done to ensure that they sync automatically and that I receive notifications?
is there a setting in the N900 email that would speck check every message before it is sent. I have been looking for hours and cant seem to find one, but cant believe this command would be missing.
I set up a Gmail mailbox on my N86 phone using e-mail wizard (IMAP). It works fine in connecting to the Gmail, and send/receive e-mails. But my problem is with automatic retrieval; every time it wants to check my mailbox, it asks me to choose access point. That means automatically retrieval acts just like manual retrieval because if I am not there when it is trying to retrieve e-mails, it won't connect, so when I come to my phone, I just see a "Select connection" box giving me three options:
Search for WLAN Internet WAP services. My phone settings regarding to Access Point and Email configuration are as below:
Settings > Connection > Packet Data > Packet Data Connection > When Available Settings > Connection > Destinations > Internet > 1 access point (default destination)
My access point setting says "Use access point = Automatically" E-mail settings > Global settings : there is no configuration for access point or connection. The available options in this page: 1- Message list layout 2- Body text preview 3- Title dividers 4- Download notifications
E-mail settings > Mailbox settings: Mailbox settings > My email address Mailbox name. My name Signature Advanced mailbox settings. What to sync > Retrieve less than 2 KB Emails to retrieve IMAP4 folder path Folder subscriptions. When to sync > Connection daysConnection hoursUpdate intervalRetrieve when abroad.
I listed my available settings because I noticed different options in different tutorials. Even my phone's manual has some different options than my phone. I didn't list WLAN options because I don't have any WLAN network. So to make it short, I want my phone to retrieve e-mails from my GMail account automatically, without asking me about connection and access point each time. BTW, my phone's web browser works fine, and makes connection when needed without asking me about the access point to use. I hope someone can suggest me a solution because I like this e-mail application in my new phone, but it is strange to me that it cannot use the default access point and always needs to ask me.
I have been trying to reach an email setup on my N97 mini that I am happy with and so far have struggled and given up on the hopeless nokia email client, and am now having problems with setting destinations for automatic email retrieval. I have my internet destination set to prioritize to different wlans and then WAP. This is my default connection.
I have a gmail and a pop3 email account, set up for automatic retrieval, however they don't pull in any mail if the access point in use is set to default connection. If its set to WLAN, it works, if its set to contract WAP, it works, and if its set to default connection it works for manual connection but not automatic retrieval.
What makes it worse is I am sure it was set up and working last week? Any thoughts please? I am getting so frustrated with the error prone nature of email on this phone I am thinking of going back to my trusted N95 8GB.
I own E6 and 701 and both phones have the same problem: at least once a day I have to restart the phones because they stop to retrieve emails every 15 minutes! It's a shame for nokia, E6 is a business phone!!! E6 has this issue since first Anna firmware and 3 upgrades didn't solve this very annoying issue! Hard reset, soft resets firmware recovery from Nokia Suite useless. I won't NEVER buy a Nokia phone, for sure.
just switched over from an IPhone 3G to a Bold 9700 and I'm loving it so far. Besides the SMS bug, the only thing that has bothered me is that my Gmail isn't receiving emails. I made sure I set up my account correctly and I even received a confirmation email, but two days after that and I have not received a single email. I have signed into Gmail from my computer and had multiple emails that my Bold never received. Any ideas what the problem might be?
Just purchased an BB Bold. I have several e-mail accounts. When I add those accounts to my BB it only shows me any mail that arrives after I load the accounts, all my past mail does not show. Could someone tell me how to load all my complete email history.
I lost an email account password on my home computer but have the password saved on my blackberry, how can I reteive it? All i see when I look it up is ******.
Have Photon for 10 months. Did firmware update (45.4.13.MB855.Sprint.en.US) a few weeks ago, no change in operation. A few days ago, phone stopped retrieving mail from Android mail app and from Yahoo Mail app. I've always had "Battery & data manager" > Battery Mode > (set to) Maximum battery saver. Always retrieved mail as appropriate for mode.
Tried nighttime saver and performance mode. Pulled battery. Still no mail retrieval. If I open mail apps, they will retrieve mail, but not automatically as before.
I'm new to BlackBerry and have my curve 8520 recently.I created a Gmail account but it doesn't download the old emails from my inbox, just push the new emails coming in.I searched and being told by my service provider that blackberry doesn't retrieve old emails, is there any other way beside this to get emails push to my bb?
I have a Galaxy S5 and would like to be able to stop the notification of receiving an e-mail without stopping the notification of text messages. Is there a way to differentiate? I was able to do this on older phones.
I have a N73, I have a mail account on Google. I created a mailbox in my phone, configured it with all settings. I enabled Automatic email retrieval and the interval time was 2 hrs. All worked fine. I got the notification in first run. I noticed that my packet data connection was active for whole day, in result phone battery was consumed too early.
I just want to know these two things:
1. Why the packet data connection is active all time? Cant it active only on the retrieval hours. Not in the idle position? 2. Why the email alert notifications has just stopped showing NEW EMAIL
I am just missing my important mails due to this problem of notification.
I am trying to remove the following message: -- BlackBerry® from Mobistar --- which appears at the end of any message I am sending from my BB. The setttings do not seem to give access to this function - or I missed it.
How to remove the automatic signature that comes at the end of all my emails? It tells people when I am using the BB and I'd like to stop it adding this bit of information to those I send emails to.
When I read my email from laptop, It will not be send to BB. I want to have it sent to BB as well. I am using outlook 2007. When I read email from BB. It will automatically delete from the device. I want to keep on device so I can refer to when I am not in the office. When I sent email form BB. I want to store my sent item ton my device. It is not show the email I sent.
Basically my C3 runs well, but the automatic email receiving, with the internal nokia-mailclient, runs well with WLAN, but not with GPRS!? If I start the client manually, then it works well, but not with the automatic function. When I am on the way, I do not get an information, that I received an email.
When i type a mail or forward a mail their is TO or CC, i write to a mail's first word but there is not auto search the mail id.my deatils are as follows :Black Berry modal 8520V5.0.0.592I am using yahoo, gmail and corporate enterprises account.Total 4 nos. of mail pushing on my handsetmy defalut messaging service mail is my corporate mail i.e.
I am new the blackberry and I have a Tour. I have tried to set up the notification settings such that the email is silent and the phone calls are on vibrate- is there a way to do that?
I started having this issue yesterday--I have YMail, Hotmail and GMail accounts all in the stock e-mail app on my Nexus 5. I also use Lightflow for LED notifications and have had no problems. I noticed I was no longer receiving the taskbar icon notifications in the upper left for new e-mails, nor the Lightflow LED notifications. I still get Hangout/text notifications, not sure about missed calls.
1) Confirmed notifications set to On in the e-mail app for each of the e-mail accounts
2) Turned phone off and then back on
3) Cleared data and cleared cache in e-mail app -- didn't work
4) Uninstalled Lightflow app
5) Deleted all 3 accounts from the e-mail app, then added them back in; rebooted -- still no notifications
I don't use the stock GMail app for GMail since I prefer to just have one icon to use to keep track of all my e-mail accounts.
Can anyone advise me how I can adjust the number of rings the X6 does before reverting to the orange answer phone. At present I have 4 rings and sometimes can not get to the phone before it diverts to Answer phone. All diverts have been deactivated.
I'm using E72, and I have big problem on this. It never automatic search GSM network when it lost it mean my phone coming to out of service until I go to. Setting -> Phone -> Network to manual search. And here the parameter in my cellphone: Network mode : GSM Operator selection : Automatic.
I just bought mine and it is running on V 10.2010.12-9, it worked great at first, but after some times of use it no longer automatically connect to the internet when needed, I've to manually connect every time by click on the top bar icon, reboot many times but no help, is this a bug ? and how do I change from 3G to 2G, it seems there is no way to do it.
whenever i start some of my phone applications, like web, make a call, receive a call, start maps, my phone automatically switches off even if the battery is full. And when i restart my phone, it switches off again after displaying the nokia logo or just after the main screen is displayed. The same process continues repeatedly. Is my N8's battery not working correctly?
At present I am in Japan and using a nokia e61. The operator (Swisscom) is providing the roaming to this country (UMTS voice), the 3G coverage is good and similar devices with the same contract are working fine. In the UMTS mode, no connection is established in the automatic mode.
When switched to the manual search mode, the device detects the local 3G operators ( DoCoMo, SoftBank). Forced to connect to the network, the device tries for a couple of minutes and returns the "no access" message. I have the impression of a reduced device sensitivity.
The SIM card has been replaced recently and the firmware is up to date. In the GSM mode the device works perfectly.
I've recently experience aproblem with my phone automatically connect to the internet every hour. therefore i set the connection mode to always ask but the mode pops up asking me to connect to the internet every hour. This kinda irritating. I've tried to reformat the phone using the *#7370# but problem still occured.
How to re-route navigation easily (should do it automatically) in Maps? Scenario: 1. Set target address and let Maps calculate route. so far, so good 2. Start driving. As long as you stay "on route",things are ok 3. You notice that Maps route is not optimal and start driving your own route. Maps does not care. 4. In order to re-calculate route from your current GPS position to same target address. Maps UI gets very clumsy. First you need clear the map, re-enter the target address (well..luckily it's still in search window), ask to Maps to re-route. While doing all this, your car is prob. out of the road already.Why Maps doesn't re-calculate the route automatically when it detects that the GPS position is well "off-the-route". My friend was using his iPhone 3GS + navigation. It did the thing as expected.is this common behaviour of Nokia Maps, or just the N900 version that lags well behind other versions.
Another problem with my new 5230: I have a pre-paid card (Pay and Go, Proximus, Belgium).I left my phone standby (and ... the battery still doesn't last 1 day, see other post) all day.I checked the amount of pre-paid credit I had in the morning.
I checked again a few hours later (and I did not use the phone): credit is decreased !Checked again a few hours later: credit still decreases. this is becoming very expensive (few Euro's a day) so here are my questions:
-anyone any idea what can cause this? -anyone any idea how I can find out what causes this when no-one knows? ;-) -how can I disable ALL possible "auto-connections" ?
Only recently got the phone and I've noticed that, usually at around 11.50pm, there is an outwards WAP connection for about 3.30 mins. This would be fine if I had free mobile internet on my contract but I don't. My network (Vodafone) charges 50p a day (counted from 12am to 12pm) for unlimited internet so I can see this getting unnecessarily costly.
