thx, but is there anything that i can do?

i just attempted to access my live.com email account and was greated with this msg...it may or may not be related...
"We're doing some maintenance to improve the service. We apologize for getting in your way. Please try again in a few minutes. If it's been more than an hour, tell us you're still waiting."
thx again, but i didnt even get that message,it just said that it synced and i had no new emails,hopefully it is a fix that microsoft is working on. thx again
check your account settings. Sometimes the password is not saved or some setting is not what it should be. I encountered the same issue with yahoo. Am not familiar at all with account settings so it was easier for me to delete the account and create it again. Upon creation I had not issues.
Guys, today after school I saw that all the statusses of my contacts were error: blablabla. I tried to refresh (in whatsapp) with no luck.
After receiving the following message, and after forwarding it to 18 ppl, i refreshed again to look if it would work.. It did work. The statusses of my contacts were back. I am just posting this here for you guys to get the statusses back. I am NOT trolling, I tested it on my phone, my sisters phone and my dads phone. I know the blue icon and red icon doesn't make sense without an app update or something like that, but the point is, after forwarding the message i got my statusses back!!( of my contacts!)
The message:
Before you read this, go to your contacts and look at everyones status! Should say error: status unavailable.
Hello everyone, it seems that all the warnings were real, the use of WhatsApp cost money from summer 2012.
If you send this string to 18 different on your list, your icon will be blue and will be free for you.
If you do not believe me see tomorrow at 6 pm ending WhatsApp and have to pay to open it, this is by law
This message is to inform all of our users, our servers have recently been very congested, so we are asking your help to solve this problem. We require our active users forwarded this message to each of the people in your contact list to confirm our active users using WhatsApp, if you do not send this message to all your contacts WhatsApp, then your account will remain inactive with the consequence of losing all their contactsMessage from Jim Balsamic (CEO of
Whatsapp) we have had an over usage of
user names on whatsapp Messenger. We
are requesting all users to forward this
message to their entire contact list. If you
do not forward this message, we will take
it as your account is invalid and it will be

We are also aware of the issue involving
the pictures updates not showing. We are
working diligently at fixing this problem
and it will be up and running as soon as
possible. Thank you for your cooperation
from the Whatsapp team”
WhatsApp is going to cost us money
soon. The only way that it will stay free
is if you are a frequent user i.e. you
have at least 10 people you are
chatting with. To become a frequent
user send this message to 10 people
who receive it (2 ticks) and your
WhatsApp logo should turn Red to
indicate a frequent user. Am sorry had no option!
And check now the status of every individual contact is showing :
Status : error
-------
Copy and paste from before till error and send it.
Good luck.

whatsapp is pure crap. it's a shame that everyone I know uses it which means i have to use it too
Well ironically my contacts have "Error: status unavailable" on all of them, but no problems sending and receiving messages. Its probably just a server error.
Well, I just did a refresh and all status's are back to normal.
LOL.
Deleted these craps from my WhatsApp inbox and all my status were back.

This. I had the same problem (not that I noticed it to begin with) and a refresh fixed it.
Ignore the OP.

Why do people fall for chainmail bullish*t? I still get tagged in pictures on Facebook saying to share this picture to continue to be able to use Facebook for free. Go look on FB page before logging in. "It's free and always will be" right on the homepage lol.
Or my PS3 inbox FULL of spam messages saying the exact same thing.
For future reference, anything that EVER says to share this with X amount of people in order to do this or get that is false. Nothing but spam.

For the same reason millions of books and websites and blogs and posts are written that are full of nonsense.
Hint: correlation does not imply causation.
I am subscribed to a few threads and set them up with daily e-mail notification. However, I'm not getting any e-mails.
Earlier this year I was subscribed to a thread and it worked. Now it doesn't. The e-mails aren't classified as spam either, they're just not coming.
Summary:
- Thread subscriptions with daily e-mail notification
- New posts
- No e-mails
Is anybody else experiencing this? Can an admin look at my account or the e-mail system? I found some similar old threads, but none of them had a solution or solved problem.
Thank you very much in advance!
Today I got a notification mail for the last 24 hours. Interesting...
I hope somebody fixed something .
Today: nothing...
I have a similar problem...
I have set daily updates for a few forums and instant notifications for a few threads. I get about once every week the daily updates (not regularly, on the same day) and no notifications for the threads (although I'm sure they have new replies).
This has been going for over a month.
Same here. Right now I just visit the user control panel to see the thread updates since I started following quite a few threads.
Still the same... 1-2 days I get e-mails, 5-6 days I don't...
It's a shame.
This has broken for me too in the last few days. I was getting daily email notifications from 4 or 5 active threads, as requested, up to and including April 5th, but since then I have only had one notification in total. Yet I can see that 5 of these threads had activity yesterday.
Same problem here...and yes I've checked my spam folder!
Few months after and the problem is still here... I guess nobody cares...
Guess not!

Haven't heard of any widespread issues, every time I look into this for a particular email address our servers have delivered the mail to the external address, how they handle spam filtering is out of our control
I also have this problem. Has anyone found a solution yet?

I'm glad I'm not the only one experiencing problems with daily subscriptions. Instant subscriptions ARE working properly for me, thankfully.
Hi,
I've got the same problem, daily or weekly email notification not received anymore since few month. Can it be related to the use of tapatalk on some of my devices?
I will try instant notification to see if it works better.
Thanks
Philippe
The problem exhibits itself with threads that I've subscribed to just days ago, too.
The only detail that I overlooked until now is the fact that I was subscribed to the Smartwatches section, back when it was a section. In between it became a super section, with other sections under it (Pebble, Sony Smartwatch, etc). And I cannot unsubscribe from it either.

Instant notifications are the only ones that work reliably for me. I may get a daily notification once every other month. This is so strange because daily use to work perfectly and nothing has changed on my end. Nothing is getting snagged by my spam filter.
I have this issue too. No problem with instant notifications, but daily doesn't work. I see item in control panel, but have no email when subscribed thread is updated. I received a daily notification email only once or twice for several months.

Hi,
i checked the spam folder (where the message remain more than 2 weeks), nothing from XDA ... And i confirm that instant notifications works well, arriving corretly on inbound message folder, not spam folder.
Thanks

Hello,
I'm experiencing a strange kind of technical problem with the xda forum: I'm not regularly receiving the email alerts for all the threads I'm subscribed to (I'm actually subscribed to 164 different threads). This happens since my registration to the forum in 2014.
I strangely receive only some notifications and quite rarely, and they are about only some of the threads I'm subscribed to, this despite the fact that most of these 164 threads subscriptions are set to "Daily" notifications on my settings.
Those notifications seems to be sent to me randomly (I'm suscribed to those threads in the same way that I'm subscribed to the other ones, and I never actively posted on most of those threads).
I've double checked the settings on my user panel, and my e-mail spam filter is totally ok.
Is there by chance a maximum number of email alerts from subscribed threads that an user can receive?
Do you guys have an idea about why this could happen?
Do you think that it would be possible to contact someone of the forum staff in order to ask for technical help?
Thank you in advance!
W.
I've made a change to your account. See if you get any notification emails now?
Thank you for your reply, the_scotsman. Unfortunately nothing changed and auctually I didn't even receice a notification for your answer to this post as well (I've just discovered it by visiting the post manually).
I did a quick search and it appears that other users did experience the same problemin the past/are experiencing it.
Do you have an idea about how we could try to fix this problem? It would be very helpful for me.
Thank you very much again,
W.

Hmmm....that's strange.
I wonder if @MikeChannon has any ideas as to what the problem might be?
I can't see anything wrong with your user account settings. Let's see if he has any suggestions.
This time I just did regularly receive the email notifications about both your reply and the quote, but the system for example completely missed your first reply on the 24th of August, and, as an example, the same did happen with my followed threads that I'm subscribed to (with daily notifications): during the last week I did receive only 2 email notifications instead of 11. These 2 notifications are about threads that the system seems to always notify me about, while I never received any email notification about the other 9 threads that the system skipped this week.
That's indeed very strange. I'm sure that my e-mail box is totally fine, I'm actively participating to many other forums without problems. My spam folder looks also clean.
Any help would be really very appreciated. Thanks again!

Our notifications are sent out via a gmail account and a few days ago we noticed google was rate limiting us. In theory that should only mean a delay but it seems emails don't actually get through at all in some cases. It MAY be related to this.
Please report back if this continues.
Mike
Thank you for your reply Mike.
The thing is that I'm experiencing this problem since the beginning, right after my registration to the forum back in 2014.
At the moment I'm subscribed with daily notification to 169 threads but I'm receiving the email notification for only a few of them (and it has always happened like that). When I connect to my user control panel I can clearly go throught my subscribed threads and spot many threads that have been recently updated without any notification on my email box (actually the main part of them).
I'm pretty sure that my email account is fine but I can't really imagine what could be the problem.
I'm open to any kind suggestion. Being able to fix this problem would really help me.
Thanks again.
W.
I'm sorry to come back writing and (bothering you guys) here, but it looks like that I really can't resolve this issue myself.
Recently I even switched the email account linked to my xda profile to another address hosted by another provider (Hotmail) but nothing has changed: I still don't receive the large part of the email alerts from the threads I'm following.
Since having switched to another e-mail address should have eliminated the possibility of blocks or filters on my (e-mail side) frankly I really don't know what to do now.
Being able to receive updates from the threads I'm following would be incredibly helpful and would surely help me to engage more with the community.
I know that, since this is a free forum (but I would even pay a subscription if it could help with this issue!), I can't demand a prompt resolution to this technical issue. But I'm wondering which could be the reason behind this problem:
could it be possible that my account is still in a kind of "limited" mode?
could it be possible that there's a limit to the number of e-mail alerts that a user can receive (even if, as from my case, this limit would be extremely low, and it also looks like I'm not receiving the alerts with consistency)?
Your account definitely isn't restricted in any way, it looks completely normal. I've triple checked, and checked again.
This might be something that the server admin @bitpushr can perhaps provide some input, as I'm out of ideas. We've checked everything we can from our side.
Thanks again for your assistence @the_scotsman, I trust you and I know that you have already tried everything you could; I'm really grateful for it.
I also know that it could seem a strange problem and I'm sorry for it; at this point I would eventually be even willing to move my account to any other email address for you guys to check.
I'm thinking about other alternative solutions. What if i open a new account, would it be eventually possible to copy all my thread subscriptions (176 subscribed threads) on it?
Thank you very much again

Hello, what do you mean with "correct solution"?
My idea was to open a new account and to "migrate" or copy my thread subscriptions to it, but actually no forum moderator or admin did reply to my message to let me know if that was possible....
At the moment unfortunately my issue is still unresolved

Hello there, sorry if I hijack this thread but I got the same problem. In general, it's the opposite problem (spam), but in this case, I don't receive emails from my subscription, despite having "checked" all threads and chose "instant email notification" in me profile settings.
Sorry If I missed a setting.
It worked today. I've got one for a quote and one for an answer to a thread I subscribed.
I don't know if you changed something.
Well I spoke too soon. Again I did not receive an instant email in a thread I subscribed.

I've never found the email notifications to be reliable, Tapatalk is much faster, and reliable.

Too bad, I like email notifications. I think Tapatalk is for mobile users and I browse XDA only from my PC.
Ok so I'm getting way too many emails so shut off the settings ( I thought) were the correct ones for the emails I was getting.
Anyway long story short I've shut all notification email off and email from admin and users, I'm not getting as many but am still getting at least 20 a day
Is there any other place I need to check besides the user cp that has email settings ?
Cheers

I believe you have to unsubscribe from each thread, that you are getting emails for, then resubscribe .
