[Q] undo latest Gmail update - Verizon Droid Incredible 2

I need to know how to roll back or undo the newest Gmail update. It's screwing up notification stuff I have for Gmail. I had a widget to show me unread emails (SMS Unread count) but now it keeps force closing if I try to make a widget for Gmail. I know its not an issue with the SMS Unread conut app because it works fine for making widgets for phone calls and text messages. Also, with the latest Gmail update, GoLauncher no longer shows me unread count in the dock, even though the setting is checked to do so.

It's already there. Once you uninstall the update, the old version will be there. You may need to reboot.
Is this due to the latest G-Mail app locking the mail database to outside apps? I just ran into this as well and had to uninstall the update too.

Also doesn't support zip attachments. Cant save em or view em. Don't like the update.
Once I change .zip to .bin it shows up fine

thanks. unfortunately that option isn't available. seems i'll be stuck with this until gmal releases another update.

Facebook app not loading messages/inbox properly

The facebook app does not load new messages on my phone... it still notifies me of new messages, notifications, news feed, and all others properly. But items in my inbox don't list updated items and when I open a thread it doesn't show the new message... it seems stuck... I tried to clear cache, and uninstall it the re-install it to no avail. Logged in and logged out, still the same...
Anyone encountered this or know a fix for it?? I'm using the updated app which is updated from the stock app... if uninstall the updated, it reverts to stock... And that's fine....
Help meeeee... Thanks

Does it come with with metatag information? Like in a black foreground error that disappears? I got that over and over again while being attached to wifi in the hospital. It even cleared out my messages on facebook from the error.
nope, didn't have any errors.... my messages when seen on the computer are fine. But, do not appear properly on the Facebook app.... new responses don't get updated and shown. I tried the manual update on the menu to no avail. So currently, I'm just using the mobile site instead, where I'm quite comfortable to use anyways. But would like if the app runs ok again.

[Q] Note 2 reboots on Gmail notification after install box.com

I have a rooted Note 2 running 4.1,2 and just installed 'Box' from box.com. When I get a notification that I have new Gmail email, I'm presented with a choice of whether I want to open it with Gmail or Box. If I select Gmail, and select Gmail as the default, the Note 2 just reboots. Has anyone else had this problem? How can I disassociate Box from Gmail completely?
Thanks in advance.
Go to Settings and clear defaults and cache. When installing cloud application don't let it to take over your mail and any other stuff.

I do have both applications running on my system, and Gmail as default, and it is certainly not rebooting.
Are both Gmail and Box.net apps up to date?
Tried all the above - thanks. Eventually fixed by telling Box not to keep me logged in.

I had exactly the same problem. I eventually solved it by telling box not to allow uploading from other apps but that isn't really good enough because I do use it to upload from other apps.

[Q] Not receiving Gmail Notifications

I have looked up this problem and tried everything. I have cleared the data, forced stop, rebooted, and even uninstalled the app but nothing. The only time I receive those notifications are when the app syncs. I have everything turned on in the Gmail settings for notifications I just really want notifications to work. Thanks.

The only time this happened to me was when I flashed Clean Rom 3.0 (back then) the first time. I found that nothing was syncing except only when I manually pushed. I got frustrated and just did a clean re-flash... all was good (never had the problem since). I am not exactly sure where the issue was so I just chalked it up as a bad flash.
Edit: Just realized yes, it was a bad flash when I re-installed google apps with Titanium Back Up... The clean flash installed from Play Store : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2077310&highlight=gmail+sync+issue

Settings > [email protected] > Sound & Vibrate > uncheck "Notify once"
that should make your emails come to you instantly whenever you get a new email. if it's something else, you would just have to clear data like the poster above mentioned, and then go to these settings again.

Android messages showing blank threads?

So this happened after the app update...wtf is this?
I have this same problem. I've noticed that it happens after I've used the Amazon music app. The only fix I've found was to force stop the Amazon music app and it clears these blank messages. I'm now on Android 8.0.0 and had this issue as well with the latest Android version 7, I was on. I have the Pixel 128gb on Verizon.
Its a problem with android messages
Yeah, I don't think it has anything to do with the Amazon music app running in the background anymore. Previously, when I saw the prompt that Amazon music was running in the background, if I started the messenger app, I got those blank threads and as soon as I force stopped Amazon music, the blank threads disappeared. Now, they stay and just go away on its own. Even with the recent update to messenger 2.5.211, it still does it.
It's definitely an issue with messenger.

Did you ever find a fix for this? I'm having the same issue.
I have this problem also after restoring the sms with the sms backup and restore. Basically the messages are there but I can't see them, only those ghost threads/messages and I cannot scroll down on the message list to see more of them.
same problem. here is what i did.
I downloaded hangouts and manually set it as default app for sms.
Then i opened up hangouts and went through all the threads that messenger wouldnt show.
Then i went back and forced stopped messenger, cleared data, and set it back as default.

Unfortunately the hangouts is not supporting sms anymore and is though unable to be set as a default sms app.

i have no idea why i had typed hangouts, must have been late. i meant to say verizon messages.
I got it working. Just disable the messages app and choose yes when it asks if you want to go back to factory app. Then clear cache and data and enable the app again. Then you can view all the messages. After this updating the app through play store is also safe and the messages remain visible.

Question Gmail notifications still don't work

From the early june i still have no notifies for mail in gmail accounts. I try all the possible solutions, also a new Clean flash of the original rom, but the behavior is the same: i receive the notifies only manual opening the gmail app.
Try switchcing with custom rom (crdroid) and notifies works, but i need the original oos, so it's not a solution.
I think that is a play service related problem due to on the end of july after a update of play service the notifies come back to work... But... Another update stop them working.
Have you got a working solution?
I start a new work that use gwork suite, so i still not receive also the work mails .
Thanks
The same issue. (Battery optimization turned off)
Try this, worked for me.
Reset the App permissions, it may be that an app or apps or something connected is causing the issue.
Go to Settings > Apps & notifications > see all apps > select three dots > Reset app preferences.
Then reboot.
This will not delete your apps data but you will have to provide permissions for all your Apps again.
Then ensure Gmail has Notifications enabled in its App info>Notifications.
Download this latest version of Gmail from apkmirror

I've downloaded Oneplus Launcher 5.2.26 together with the Gmail app. Maybe the launcher is the reason for it being fixed.
BTW Launcher 5.2.26 fixed a lot of bugs on the launcher and now the 120Hz is better but not perfect. Scrolling too.
And dont forget to check "Dont Optimize" under Battery
I have installed latest Gmail and Launcher but not help.

I have the same problem with notifications. Until this is fixed, I'm using FairEmail to pull my gmail and the notifications work.
This really is not a issue limited to Oneplus. All my Android devices have poor Gmail notifications. I was under the impression that it was optimized using Doze: https://developer.android.com/training/monitoring-device-state/doze-standby
If you use something like Outlook Email, notifications are not restricted in the background. I would rather use Gmail, but it does not send notifications reliably. So, Outlook it is.
15th of november... Still have notifications problems.
