Missed a few email polls - Desire General

I use the HTC Mail program to get main from my gmail account via Google's exchange server. I have it set up to check every hour from 00:00 to 23:59, and it usually does that, but I noticed a couple of days ago that the last check was at something like 00:06, and the time then was 2 in the afternoon. I did a manual check and it immediately picked up 3 emails which had been sent that day, confirming that it wasn't incorrectly displaying the last time it check - it really hadn't checked at all. It's been fine since then, but I don't want to have to check if it's checked properly, if you see what I mean.
Has anyone else had this? It failed to check on at least 12 consecutive occasions.

Calendar wierdness

Hi, Had to hard reset my desire this AM due to the sense going into a loop of force closing, think it may have been something to do with updating one of my apps. Got everything back to normal now except that any entries in the calendar appear seem to be 1 hour ahead of where they should be...On the PC the app't may start at 18:00 & finish at 20:00 but on the Desire, it says 19:00 & 21:00...this is for ALL entries (being 1 hour ahead of the actual app't). I have the time zone set for London / Dublin +1:00 as I'm in the UK...any ideas you braniacs?
Summer time maybe?
Thought about that & checked everything on my pc but that's all set up as it ought to be...I notice somebody else on here is having the same issue:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=669718
ta for looking in though.
Anyone resolved this?
Time shifted back an hour in UK at weekend. My phone is configured to 'use network time'.
Looking at it now, at 15:12pm, the phone shows 15:12pm accurately, my PC shows 15:12pm, but calendar items synced from my PC to my phone are showing the wrong time in my phone.
For example, I have a recurring appointment at 4pm every Monday, but at 2:55pm today, my phone gave me my '5 minute reminder'. That appointment is still showing correctly at 4pm on my PC.
As far as I can tell, Google Calendar items are displaying accurately, and calendar entries created SINCE the time change on my PC sync to the correct time fine.
Any ideas on how to resolve this, I surely *can't* be having to remove and re-add all my meetings everytime the time changes??

[Q] k9mail push (imap idle) inconsistent

I am having some weird issues with k9mail client with push mail not working consistently. Does anyone else have this problem?
Random times during the day, mails do not get pushed to me. I can't really discern a particular pattern of when it works and when it doesn't so I haven't been able to "reproduce" the problem at will. I've also turned on debugging and have been looking at the logs via aLogCat.
For Example
Let's say I start watching the logs at 1:00pm and this was the last time anything was logged by k9mail. Then I get an email to one of my accounts at 1:10pm (I found out via desktop mail client) but this mail does not get pushed to me so I don't get notified and k9mail is still not logging anything so there's no activity by the mail client.
1:25pm comes around, which is over the 24 minute imap idle refresh time configured but I still don't see any mails being pushed to me.
Sometimes the mail finally gets pushed, sometimes it doesn't get pushed for over an hour.
Anyone else have this issue? Any suggestions?
I am currently confined to using k9mail because it allows me to reply to emails received at one account with another account without using gmail's "Send As" feature.
Thanks!

At the times you're expecting the mail to push through, is your phone on or idle? Do you notice any discernible difference between the two?

Yes, the phone is on but it doesn't seem to matter if it is on (screen on) or idle (screen off).
This would be the sequence of events:
1) The phone is on but screen off (idling)
2) I notice that I received an email through my desktop PC
3) Look at my phone, LED is not blinking so it has not been pushed the email
4) I turn the screen on and unlock it, still is not pushed
5) I opened up the k9mail app, still not pushed
At this point, I can turn the screen back off and eventually I would get notified but when this problem is occurring, it takes too long for the mail to get pushed to me and this problem really defeats the purpose of push mail.
Thanks for the reply!

Seems like you're not the only one with this issue. I would completely remove the application, wipe cache on the phone in recovery (power + volume up if not rooted), reinstall and set it back up. If that doesn't fix push, set it to poll every 5 minutes.

I've definitely seen reports of this issue. Really not sure if it's the OS, phone, or k9mail.
Here's a k9mail bug that was reported that I added onto with logs:
http://code.google.com/p/k9mail/issues/detail?id=3847
If anyone else is having the same issues, please add a comment so that it get some more attention.
Could this be the same issue described in detail here?
code.google.com/p/k9mail/issues/detail?id=4347
This issue has recently appeared on my phone as well. I had been using K9 for my work email for over a year on my Evo 4G without any problems. About two months ago I picked up a Samsung SG3 (Sprint) and installed K9 on there as well, with no problems whatsoever. All of a sudden around September 5th, I started noticing that I would get my desktop notifications before my phone would receive my emails, which I couldn't recall ever happening in the entire time I had been using K9. I had not make any network changes, system changes, or anything like that. It just stopped working as it normally did one day.
Long story short, I've been having the same issue as you described in the OP. I've tried installing and uninstalling multiple versions of K9 (4.119, 4.200, 4.201, 4.304, 4.306) with the same results.
My work email is hosted by GoDaddy (yes, they are terrible) and as you can expect, I tried getting some support from them and they said that everything was working as it should. I've also tried sending the K9 devs a few emails regarding the issue along with a bunch of catlogs, but not one of them has responded to me. Oh well, it was a great app when it was working.
Oh, and for what it's worth, I had tried setting up 3 different imap email accounts on K9, my work account hosted by GoDaddy, a Gmail account, and a Yahoo account. The Yahoo and Gmail ones pushed emails immediately, whereas the work one would only push at the "refresh idle connection" intervals.

Push Notifications Very Delayed

Hi,
Within the last month or so, I've noticed push notifications just don't work properly.
Before, I was used to getting emails within 10 seconds (slower than iPhone & Blackberry but fine).
Now, I find I am having to refresh by hand to pull down emails that might have arrived 5 minutes ago, annoying when you are having a conversation by email.
I thought my sync had broken and it was relying on Fetch but no issues present in the sync. Today I tested push notifications using Chrome to Phone. I've used this before and know it to be very quick at pushing the page from PC to phone. I tried today and despite confirming it was sent, at first nothing happened. 5 minutes later, my page arrived.
I'm running AOKP build 40 which I don't believe to be the issue.
Is this something I can fix? Or is this Google's cloud just failing to keep up?

[Q] Push Gmail Delay and Random Reboots. Help?

Hi everyone,
I have a new issue for you guys and maybe you can help me. I cannot find any information on my push delay issue. I am wondering if it might be related to random reboots and whether I should return my device for another. Anyway I have a very large delay with gmail push notifications. My galaxy s3 instantly gets emails when they arrive, but my nexus 7 can take anywhere between 10mins to 30mins to get that same email. Same with marking it as read if I have seen it on my phone. It happens whether it is sleeping or screen on and wifi connected the whole time. I can be browsing the web and my push email will not come. Is anyone experiencing this issue with theirs? As I am typing this my nexus has still not seen an email that came in 15 minutes ago to my nexus - Last gmail sync was 20 minutes ago with screen on and off periodically.
I am updated to JSS15Q and am not ready to root the device yet. My SGS3 is on PA 3.99 and works flawlessly with push. On another note, I am getting random reboots during sleep or use - just like many other people as well who have returned their devices to get one that doesn't do it. It is very annoying - considering returning the device soon, but I've already installed a bunch of things on it.
Thanks for the help!
Edit, it has now been over 12 hours and Gmail has not synchronized. It shows yesterday afternoon as last time of sync, while the account itself shows synced in the morning. The only things that synced in the morning are calendar and app data. 12 hours later I have like 15 new emails on my phone and Asus transformer, but nothing on the nexus. All sync is on in Gmail and settings. Wifi was on the entire night and I was downloading something too overnight, which finished. I kept the screen on all night so the tablet couldn't sleep. No emails. Any ideas?
Regarding Gmail: did you try removing the account and setting it up again?
Regarding the reboot: I haven't find solution yet:

Thanks for the reply. It seems I have somehow sorted out the issues. For fixing gmail, I did a factory reset and just put everything back on as well as all of my gmail accounts. Seems to be working with push ever since! However, I still had random reboots. I seemed to notice that they happened mostly when I was using chrome beta, so I froze chrome beta and started using chrome. No reboots for 209 hours and 40 minutes now! Going strong although I shall *knock on wood*. So if anyone else has either of these issues I recommend trying to remove chrome beta as it fixed reboots for me and possibly also doing a factory reset - even battery life improved after that with same apps reinstalled.

Calendar not showing notifications

Anyone else have calendar events not showing up? I have an event scheduled everyday that isnt showing a notification. I’ve looked at the usual stuff, notifications are on for calendar, etc....I have an iPad that’s also connected to the same gooogle calendar and they come through fine on it everyday. Anyone have any insight?
Is there an alert added to the calender entry? Like 10 minutes before?
Thanks for replying. There is an alert set,...it was for 10 minutes before, that didn’t work so I changed it to at the time of event, and that didn’t work. I read somewhere that it was because of the last update, so I uninstalled the update and it worked this morning. I’m going to give it a few more days to see if it still works and if so I know a calendar update came out yesterday so I’ll update to that and hopefully I won’t have to worry about it anymore.

I used to have problems with my calendar not firing alerts or just firing late on previous phones. Then I found an app on GPS called Events Notifier For Calendar (by RYO Software.) There is an XDA thread somewhere about it. I've been using it on my last three phones including this one and I feel it is indispensable! (As for the GPS rating, my guess is user error for most of people's complaints.) But it has never failed me and the developer is extremely helpful. It's probably one of the first 5 apps I now install on every new phone.
