Anyone have problems with notifications?
With my old note when I receive a mail or a whatsapp chat the notification was literally instant, even before web gmail show it
now with note 2, sometimes can take 10 minutes before the phone says to me that I have a mail or a new whatsapp message.
any idea?
Don't know about whatsapp. For email, I always get emails half a minute or less before my Outlook on PC.
However, I think it depends on your network speed.

Does push Gmail require my data connection to be on all the time? If so, how much battery drain does a constant data connection cause?

no. ur using activesync so u have d choice of setting it to manual sync, or interval or immediate (always on)
if ur using edge, expect 8-9 hours.
3g, 6 hours top.
I’d just like to add my 2 cents in this so that people don’t get turned off by push email…
I happen to connect to an Exchange Server via Active Sync for my email. For 14 hrs a day, it’s set to sync “as items arrive” (i.e. push). During the night, I set the sync schedule to “manual”.
I get a moderate amount of emails each day and I have to say that I’ve not notice a substantial battery drain relative to an IMAP connection that polls every hour.
Push email doesn't require a constant connection as if you're always downloading something. It's more of a "pulse" connection. Try to research a bit into exactly how push email works and you'll see what I mean...
There are two ways to push gmail (or two that I've used recently). One is the new gmail sync, which is an Exchange server. Using that method, I was getting about 8 hours of battery.
The other method is the System Seven beta. I used this for a year+ on my Moto Q before gmail sync became available. I don't know how System Seven works -- it's not Exchange and it's not IMAP. But it works. It seems to be more reliable and quicker than gmail sync, at least for now. It never has gmail sync's problem with passing through attachments. On my TP2, with Seven, I can turn Direct Push off in Comm Manager, and I get more than 24 hours of battery. The only funny glitch with Seven is that on the TF3D home messaging tab, in the little envelope on the screen, instead of showing the beginning of the message, it says, "Click to view message." But that's o.k.; I wouldn't read messages on that screen anyway.
I recently switched back from gmail sync to Seven, and for now it's better. I expect that in a short while, gmail sync will iron out some bugs and become more responsive, and maybe I'll switch back.
One feature that neither of them have, and I'm dying for: The ability to synchronize flags, to mark a message as "Follow up" in Pocket Outlook and have it star the message in gmail. Gmail sync allows the flag, and it will sync with Outlook, but not directly with gmail on the web.

It's free and seems likely to remain so...
My company has an alerting SMS system. Usually you receive a reminder. The special thing in the SMS that instead of the number in the "Form" field it shows the text "alert".
When I receive this SMS it shows that I received it one of my friends from facebook contacts :s His profile also not contains number under the phone field just characters.
How this huge bug could pass the test?!
I reported this issue to HTC support, but of course no response.
This happens with me when receiving texts from t-mobile, it always says that they are from a random facebook friend. The only way to stop it, is to stop the phone syncing facebook contacts.
I too am having the same problem.
It seems very odd that it should pick up a random facebook contact.
I don't sync my facebook contacts to the Desire, but do remain logged into facebook and it still picks up the random contact despite the mobile numbers used etc all being different!
A fix would be great!
I had this bug, I had the contact delete their phone details seeing as they only entered garbage. Don't hold your breath on it ever getting fixed.
I've been all over the place for this issue, and no one has been able to solve it.
I have Yahoo plus as my main email and installed it on my EVO, under the "Mail" icon. My issue is that anything I send from there, is delivered to the recipient, but there is no record of the sent message on the Yahoo Servers. This force me to use 3rd party apps, which I don't like, as it doesn't have the services/options, and they are required to "poll" for my messages, instead of being automatically pushed to my phone, which is a huge drain on battery, that is already less then average. I typically get over 100 emails a day, so I can't have it only polling once in a while, as I will never catch up.
Does anybody know what settings to use, so as to fix this problem, as neither Sprint, HTC, or Yahoo have a clue?
Also, has anyone found a app for SMS texting contact, without putting them in V-card format?
I currently have Roid1.0 and K-9 Mail, neither of which I'm too fond of.
guys, I got a really odd issue with my tilt 2 and yahoo email. I got the phone setup receiving emails from a couple of my email account, yahoo and gmail. For some reason, one of my yahoo email always download all of the mails after like a day or two of use despite the fact I set it to 1 day or 3 days. What is wrong with it?
Finally!! Someone who can relate to what I'm going through.
Any fixes for this? It had downloaded over 1400 emails in one Yahoo account and everything on the phone was lagging. There were some areas I couldn't get to: Home Screen. I ended up doing another hard reset and reloading the data from there. The only thing that sucks about that is that I lose the threaded SMS that I had.
Any help would be appreciated.
Ditto on the problem. I haven't figured out why it does this yet...
same issue has happened a few times to me. only solution I found was going to yahoo on my pc & archiving old emails so I keep only 100-200 emails in my inbox.

This is a rare issue for me. It's happened to me less than 10 times (on my HD2 and my TP2).
The only thing I do when I see it trying to download 300+ (instead of the 5 days of mail I want), I press Menu > Send/Receive to force-stop the download. When I retry, it goes back to downloading the 5 days-worth of mail.
Hi I have a Huawei P9+ on 6.0 using stock Huawei messenger on phone and Gmail for emails. Messages are not syncing or saving to the phone or my Huawei Watch on 1.5. Even when sending messages from watch directly synched to phone no guarantee on sent to recipients.
All software up to date, only thing properly syncing every two minutes is weather just pops up on watch all the time. Why??
Have read on net could be 1.5 error or phone stopping sync. Find really annoying watch practically a paper weight. Phone & watch only 3 weeks old...
I have restored phone watch etc with basic Setup still same.
Even phone book not syncing properly missing some contacts
Hope you can help.
