Push Email?

Does android have it? I'm so confused by all this. I tried doing some research and the Gmail application says they have push, yet I'm not getting push. Coming from blackberry, I need my emails. I don't need them this second but I would like them to be there when I check, not having to go into every account and refresh.

I have Background sync enable and application sync. I am using Gmail application for 4 Gmail accounts and 1 yahoo account with K-9. I am not using any background killer application.

I have simultaneously sent out multiple email to those email address and they barely get delivered. I see the emails in my mail box on yahoo.com or gmail.com and even when I try to refresh my mail boxes on my GS4G, it sometimes shows up and sometimes doesn't.

Considering I have important work emails, I would like them to get delivered. Even if they don't get delivered right away, but as long as they do. And this is making me think that its sketchy. So is there push or isn't? Or are my settings messed up?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] krylon360:
Yes, push works, haven't had an issue with it. Try clearing your data/cache from stock recovery. You may have to resign in. Try doing 1 at a time to test.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] v0va:
Could being on wifi be the problem?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jerrybritt:
I am using K9 and Gmail and they are both working perfectly. Personal and business email are delivered with moments, sometimes sooner, than directly into my gmail accounts.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Henchman:
Wifi or not, I always get my emails right away
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] v0va:
Hmm, I don't know what can be wrong, I woke up this morning to see about 5 new emails in my inbox but none of them on my phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] krylon360:
again try a factory reset, then add 1 at a time, send yourself some test emails, see if they go tot he phone, then add another, send test emails to both, see if they go to the phone, and so on and so on.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jeffsf:
The push/poll/sync settings aren't at all intuitive for me in K-9 mail and I'm working through them now myself (on Android for only a week now). At least as I understand it, there is a setting for poll that is independent from that for push. Both need to be set up for the account, as well as the proper set of folders associated with each. I think some of that is behind the out-of-box behavior of clicking into a folder and not having it auto-update.

It's pretty flexible, but not what I would call user friendly.

As far as I can tell, you can set each folder in an account to be 1st Class, 2nd Class, or (none selected), for each of display, push, and poll, and then set, for the account, what you display, push, and poll:

* All

* Only 1st Class

* 1st and 2nd Class

* All except 2nd class

(display, push, and pull class are independent of each other for each folder)

I'm trying to figure out a "magic decoder ring" so I can wrap my head around it all.

Ok I'm lost. I'm working today and my phone tries to reboot for no apparent reason and is put into a boot loop that I cannot get out of no matter what. In boot loader I have no recovery. Downloaded amon ra recovery's PC36IMG.zip. Booted into bootloader it said it updated the recovery but after I've rebooted I still have no recovery. I don't think this is very good.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
Bootloader asked you to update and reboot and it went through completely?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crimeslunk:
Yeah, it said update was succesful. Thats why I'm so confused.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] teh roxxorz:
So when you go into recovery from the bootloader, do you see the triangle?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crimeslunk:
Nope just back to white screen boot loop. Trying to flash sprint lovers with the pcm36img over it maybe that will bring me back to stock rooted stat.

Edit: Back to white screen boot loop.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bsmoove386:
Damn I feel bad for you

I had that same problem when i first rooted and flashed my evo. I suddenly got into an infinite boot loop where i no longer had a recovery. Sorry man i had to take it to a sprint store after i tried flashing a different bootloader and then retry flashing a different recovery from clockwork to amon. and then even tried to flash the stock rom none work. if none of those work then you most likely is going to have to go to a sprint store.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kd0axs:
Well, you could try running an RUU. This will leave you unrooted and completely stock so you will need to root again.

Here's a how-to over on Android Central.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChacocII:
when this happened to me last friday i looked around xda and i found a couple other people who had this problem as well. everyone i found (myself included) was running a cm7 rom. i still cannot get any farther than bootloader without a white screen loop. sprint sent me a replacement on warranty because i live too far from the sprint store for them to make me drive there but i have to send my old one back. its still s-off tho and even running the stock ruu does nothing to fix that. anyone know of how to get s-on without the ability to enter recovery or anything else? or a way to brick it completely so it wont boot to bootloader where they can see s-off?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crimeslunk:
Threw mine out of the window of my car and called sprint and told them I lost it. Cost me $100 to get a replacement and now I'm going to have to spend forever getting back to root and eng boot ect... sucks.

Has this only happened with the magnus cm7 or is the happening with the official cyanogen rc1 and nightlies? Because I'm really wanting to go to the CM7 nightlies but not if the chance this is going to happen again.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
Does the bootloader let you run a PC36IMG.zip? If so, try running one (of a factory unrooted ROM), and when it goes to reboot and shows the green arrow facing down (if it gets that far) yank the battery at that point. I think that is when it's writing the radio image. If you can get it to that point, and then pull the battery, I'm pretty sure you'll have a brick. Aside from a battery pull during the radio flash, I'm not sure how to make a brick, without it being obvious of what you've done. You could rig your phone charger up to a 230 volt outlet from a drier or something, and plug it in. haha. maybe that would fry it, tell sprint you got a power surge when it was charging, and then it wouldnt turn on. (only 1/8 serious on that last part :) )
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChacocII:
Has this only happened with the magnus cm7 or is the happening with the official cyanogen rc1 and nightlies?

Happened to me with official cm7 rc1

Does the bootloader let you run a PC36IMG.zip?

yes, but it doesn't actually do anything. it will go thru the whole update process but still goes back to a white screen loop and no recovery. tried a battery pull during the radio update a couple hours ago (i thought the same thing) but it did nothing. i think its because its not actually doing anything when u run the pc36img other than going thru the motions on the screen.

maybe i can microwave it hahaha

edit: after a couple battery pulls during the radio update in the pc36img im using, it will no longer go thru the full radio update when running the zip so i definately screwed up the phone. it still gets to bootloader no problem tho so ive accomplished nothing.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k2buckley:
Damn, so you can still see s off? I have no clue how to get it to s on then, or make it so you can't even get to the bootloader. Yea, if you microwaved it (haha) i'm sure it wouldnt ever turn on again. However, whoever looks at it would be able to tell that something went very, very wrong, and it wasn't the phone's fault. ha. Maybe it won't even matter that it's s off. I've heard of people having luck with sprint looking at a phone that is s off, but I've also heard the oppositte (more often).
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChacocII:
i actually told the sprint tech on the phone that i had rooted it and he still warranty replaced mine. im just hoping they dont change their minds when they get it back and see s-off and try to charge me 500 bucks for my new one.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] live2ride96:
Wow. Yeah, if it won't even run a PC36.img from bootloader, you're kinda SOL. That's pretty much a last resort. Granted, you should try a few different img's (different d/l sources) before assuming it's screwed. Sometimes, you can get a bad download. I had a stock Evo that wouldn't go into recovery, so I flashed a RUU from bootloader, and everything was fine. Best of luck with your replacement though, brother.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChacocII:
well i have 14 more days before i have to send it back. there must be some way to get it to not turn on at all without physical damage, just gotta figure it out.
[Xoom General] joeski27:
I've already posted this in the development area of the forum, but honestly I'm just sitting here hoping someone will reply and I don't think enough people will see my post there. But at any rate, I've been sitting here for the last few hours hoping someone will help me out; I am trying to complete the unlock procedure for my Xoom on my Mac, and for some reason I cannot get the SDK to recognize my Xoom ("adb devices" shows nothing). I'm really hoping someone can give me a tip as to how I can get this otherwise simple procedure to work. :(
[Xoom General] Bauxite:
Dumb question, but do you have USB debugging turned on?

Settings -> Applications -> Development

Oh I guess you're trying to do fastboot... nevermind
[Xoom General] joeski27:
Maybe not a dumb question, as I do not have it turned on...but thats only because none of the published instructions for unlock mention this. I just went straight to the power down, followed but the power-button-and-down-volume combination to go into the fastboot protocol support.
[Xoom General] joeski27:
This is incredibly frustrating, I have no idea what to do. I guess this is what happens when you get your xoom several days after everyone else did.
[Xoom General] Bauxite:
Are you running adb as root? Try 'sudo adb devices'

I have to do this on linux.
[Xoom General] joeski27:
Nope, still nothing showing up. This is ridiculous.
[Xoom General] angermeans:
I found something while at work today. You need to go to android.com/filetransfer and download the file transfer application as the Xoom can't be recognized without it. Hope this helps I have used it since launch and it works well.
[Xoom General] nindoja:
This is not true at all. The file transfer tool is for transferring files to the Xoom, not interacting with it via adb and fastboot. The Mac should just recognize the device (mine does, and I don't have the file transfer tool installed).

I just realized this is related to the post you made in the Root (or unlocking?) thread. Make sure if you want to see the device in "adb devices" that you have the Xoom booted normally.

If you have it in fastboot mode it should show up in "fastboot devices"

Hi guys,

I would like to know if it's possible to use the Vision keyboard and trackpad to control a PC with bluetooth or tcp/ip.

This is for a car PC project

Thanks
[G2 and Desire Z General] heybobitsme:
Try BlueputDroid. It's in beta and it's buggy but it has potential if the dev keeps up with it. It uses bluetooth to connect without a seperate server program like the other apps on the Market. It was originally written for PS3 but it works on pc. You need to be rooted as well.

What specifically is this car project?
[G2 and Desire Z General] Ermenegil:
Thanks for your suggestion! I will look into that!

Aahh! Can't post images or links but here is the main idea of my build.

My car is a Chevrelet Cobalt 2010 and I plan to remove the Head Unit (Stereo) and put a 7inch touchscreen at its place. I'll have a computer in trunk along with my new amp.

It's why I'll need a way to control the computer. I doesn't want to buy a 100$ bluetooth keyboard/trackpad kit.

Feel free to ask any question!
[G2 and Desire Z General] wolek76:
Ever tried 'team viewer'?

I know its a remote assistance software but it works flawlessly. Not sure if it will work over Bluetooth, but it definitely does over IP. So perhaps you could create an ad-hoc WiFi connection in your car....

I couldn't find it in the market, had to download of developers site, just Google 'teamviewer'

Hope this helps....

What is new on android 2.3.3 ?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] devya:
Enhancements for game development: To improve overall responsiveness, we’ve added a new concurrent garbage collector and optimized the platform’s overall event handling. We’ve also given developers native access to more parts of the system by exposing a broad set of native APIs. From native code, applications can now access input and sensor events, EGL/OpenGL ES, OpenSL ES, and assets, as well a new framework for managing lifecycle and windows. For precise motion processing, developers can use several new sensor types, including gyroscope.

Rich multimedia: To provide a great multimedia environment for games and other applications, we’ve added support for the new video formats VP8 and WebM, as well as support for AAC and AMR-wideband encoding. The platform also provides new audio effects such as reverb, equalization, headphone virtualization, and bass boost.

New forms of communication: The platform now includes support for front-facing camera, SIP/VOIP, and Near Field Communications (NFC), to let developers include new capabilities in their applications.

[Vibrant General] moeluv09:
I want to start off by saying that I am a NOOB at this rooting and custom ROM stuff. I was getting ready to toss this Vibrant in the trash when I said to read up on rooting, follow the steps provided, and install a custom rom. XDA you have saved my phone. I want to thank all of you who provide all of the support here. I installed Bionix 1.3 and I am in shock at this phone now. GPS actually works in real time. The phone is superfast as well. The only issue I have is that I can't surf the web or check FB without my battery draining like 3-5% in a ten minute span. Its crazy. Battery does well in standby mode. Extremely well as a matter of fact. not sure why it drains so quickly when I actually use it. I have wiped the battery stats and done the battery cycle. Overall still love the new look. Keep em coming.
[Vibrant General] da_dragon2k3:
Glad you found a new appreciation for your phone through xda. As we all did.

Your issue is with the kernal used in 1.3. The OverStock kernel. I've had the same issue. Great life in standby 1% an hour vs on a vanilla kernel + voodoo 3-4% an hour drain. Whenever I have my screen on battery drain is insane. 30% increase with the screen on vs how it norally would be. I would recommend flashing ka7/kb1 + voodoo kernel. That should fix it right up.
[Vibrant General] oka1:
2 things

Check and make sure there are not background apps engaged when using those apps (sounds like there may be)

Also if you want you can buy a 4g battery it is 1650 mah that will help. But I use my phone alot and Battery really not an issue anymore.

check your background apps see what is not necessary to run.
[Vibrant General] Mr. Apocalypse:
i believe Team Whiskey removed the OverStock kernel and replaced it with the regualar VooDoo kernel in Bionix-V 1.3.1....

Maybe you should try that....

I'm using Categorically Worthless kernel on Binix-V 1.3.1 and my battery life is great
[Vibrant General] Mcindallas:
I must say THANKS as well. Tried rooting yesterday but something went wrong, was on official 2.2 and couldn't get 3e-2e fix to work. Nearly bricked phone. Searched xda. Now rooted with Bionix v (not tw version). Loving this speed. Battery isn't an issue since I have a spare w/charger.
[Vibrant General] carlcj5:
Go to team whiskey's website,register,go to forums look for shory's files near top of page download kb1+voodoo kernal and flash it w/clockwork ...that will overwrite the over clock kernal and give you much better battery life or you can just flash bionix 1.3.1,personaly i like 1.3 and i just switch back and forth between kb1 and overstock it only takes about 20 seconds to flash

Bionix-V 1.3 w/a Splash of Color
[Vibrant General] moeluv09:
Thanks for the response everyone. Will flashing the kernel wipe everything? I will be doing a backup though clockwork anyway. I was just wondering..... Thanks.
[Vibrant General] dougstoner:
No, it will just overwrite the kernal files, so your sd card and all that should be fine, but go ahead and get in the habit of making backups regularly. Trust me, it can happen.
