[Q] HTC Dot View Case Gmail notifications to showing up. - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have the Dot View Case which is supposed to display email notifications. I use Gmail and everytime I get a new email, I don't get the on-screen notification on the case. Does anyone have this problem or know the fix for it?

I think the case only works on the HTC system apps

The "fix" is to use HTC's stock email app.
The down side to that is you can't get Gmail push notification.
Sadly, the Dot View Case only works with HTC stock apps i.e. email, messenger, calendar etc.
I'm hoping that they update it to work with third party apps in the future.

Universal messaging app

Is there an universal messaging app like blackberries have, where all ur txts, emails, and instant messages come to the same place? Something similar?

Yup.. Try Kik. Messenger. kik(dot)com
Kik doesn't do email and text in the inbox of the app..only kik messages
Whatsapp

Lol. Guys, it might be hard but it's worth actually reading what the OP wants before you blindly reply.
@OP: AFAIK, there is no unified or universal messaging solution on Android that supports IM,SMS etc..
Try pure messanger app. I get notified for everything with it and it has an awesome widget to.

^^Correct me if I am wrong, but that is not an App. It is just a widget.
Whatsapp can do that for you.

[Q] Facebook Notifications

One thing which has been bugging me is the I never get notifications from my phone (in the notification bar of phone) when I get notifications in the facebook app. My phone doesnt buzz, make a sound nothing. Is this just with me or is there something wrong?? in the app settings I enable all sorts lf notification vibratin etc but It never works. My freind has a HTC Desire and his phone notifies him! Is there a solution?

add your FB to accounts and sync. You can do this either from Settings>accounts and sync> add account or from the app itself.

[Q] No Facebook notifications?

Hello,
The first week I got my GN, Facebook notifications were working like a charm.
Lately they stopped working completly. Both Facebook and Facebook Messenger.
Is there a real push alternative rather than the intrigrated one? They always seem to fail somehow?

It's Facebook's fault, their apps suck.
Logout from the App and log back in and adjust your settings again. Sometimes that fixes it.
Tried logging in and out with no luck
Is anyone else experiensing the same problem?

I'm getting notifications just fine if you go into the app settings you can set notifications within facebook rather than on the phone. alternatively you can sign up for mobile alerts or email notifications on facebook website from your account settings .

Well, I dont like email spamming from Facebook. Thats why I turned them off.
I've set notifications ON only in the app itself. Never seen such settings on the phone.

Lol there aren't any on the phone I just wasn't sure if you thought there were. alternatively you can set up a new gmail account dedicated to your facebook and have notifications pushed there. Personally I just set a filter in my main gmail account 4 anything with the word facebook in the email address to go to a custom facebook label. I like to have access to those notifications in the event that comments are deleted or I need to refer to something. Although this means every time I get a facebook notification it's immediately followed by an email notification.

I've solved that by installing facebook messenger, works like it should within couple secs after a message is posted.

Stock HTC Mail app not updating

I was using the stock HTC mail app for my mail since it is the only one that will interface with the lock screen, and it seems like it only keeps my main account synced, and will only sync other accounts when I open the app and switch to that account. Is there a way that I can fix this or is that just the way the stock app functions?
