Gtalk - how to disable automatic login?

How do I disable automatic login on GTalk? I noticed that it's one of the things that eats up battery. All other versions had the option and I can't find it here

Don't think you can but usually only logs in upon boot up otherwise its logged out I thought.

Ugh... I guess I'll have to get used to this.

Don't know if you can disable auto login but you can sign out in GTalk's settings. (Top right menu within the program.. .)

Just log out. It won't log you back in until you tell it to.

If you log out then gtalk never logs back in even after reboot.

No gmail notification

I have a strange issue. I've noticed this on my android phones in the past and now my incredible 2 and its really annnoying. For some reason it does not let me know half the time if I have a new gmail mail in my inbox.
I.use the stock gmail app and I have to go into the all, manually refresh, and then if will alert me of any gmail.
Case in point I had 4 emails sent last night and never got them till I went In and manually refreshed just now.
How can I fix this? It was working fine before and now nothing.

Open Gmail. Hit your settings button or menu botton. Hit the settings tab then you should see three options one being your email adress. Hit it and there should be your sync Gmail it will say on or off. Yours probably says off so turn it on.

Thank you. For some reason the box for automatically syncing data wasn't checked.

No calendars selected

This is a noob question. After getting the JB update every time I unlock my screen a little note on the bottom pops up saying no calendars selected. What is that and how do I remove it? Appreciate your guys help.

I've never run the stock JB, but there's probably an option in settings>accounts where you can select a calendar for the phone to sync with. Just sync to a calendar you never use if you don't want to use the the feature. If that doesn't fix it, factory reset the phone.

Photo syncing?

Is there an app or a way to get Facebook and Dropbox to sync into my built in gallery. I have the apps synced in my accounts, but doesn't seem there's an option to do what I'm looking for?

Nobody?????

Do you mean something like this? Where it can automatically sync everything in any folder to your Dropbox account.
I can't figure out how to use that, but what I'm trying to do is get my drop box and fb photos, in my nexus 7 photo gallery.

Anything? I know about the "my album" app, but I want something that Synch's as I go.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
I'm using FolderSync for a similar purpose.
With that App, I can schedule the synchronisation of selected folders from my phone's storage to (in my case) a shared folder in my home network. The same is set up for my Nexus 4. By that, the photo albums on both devices are synced. I guess it should provide the options to sync also your Dropbox files. Give it a try!
That sounds awesome, I will try that, thank you!

It's kind of confusing.. I set up my drop box account and I can't get it to sync to my gallery..

M8 doesn't auto sync

When I take my phone out of extreme power saving mode, it syncs gmail, twitter, Facebook exc. But then, it doesn't auto sync.
I have noticed that it does sync when I wake up the phone and unlock it. But as I said it doesn't notify me right when I get an email. Is there a way to fix this?

Do you have sleep mode turned on? If yes that's why it doesn't auto sync.

Then I have no idea. Mine was on and when I turned it off everything works fine in terms of syncing.
