Gmail app not pushing - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions & Answers

Got my new verizon s7 sat. I can't get Gmail to push new emails, it only works if I open the app and manually refresh. I have tried wiping cache and data for the app, ensured that the sync Gmail in settings >accounts is on.... which it seems to get hung up there occasionally, I see the circle but it isn't spinning. I have turned on all the settings in the app too
**edit 4/22/16. It is working now

As far as I have seen, this problem has been around since January sometime. No it has not been fixed though according to this article they know what the issue is. I don't know what they are waiting for to fix this. I have heard Inbox is working better. You can look into that if its urgent enough.

This article was posted in febuary and states that some people at google said this:
"Thanks again for your patience on this while the team investigated the issue. I’m happy to announce that a fix has started to roll out. This fix requires no action, and will roll out globally over the next week."
It's been well over a week now.. still no fix?

Yeah, I don't know what they are dragging their feet with. According to this google forum I found it is still an on going problem.

One of the suggestions in there is to use CloudMagic. It seems to be helping with instant notifications for those of us that need to have emails notify of us instantly.
Hope this is helpful.

Weird, it works fine on my old rooted s5... New stock s7... Nope, the Samsung app works but I like the gmail one better

I think it is a Marshmallow bug...

Well it appears to be working again, I cracked my screen already on my phone, so I got a new one through insurance. Fired it up last night and the Gmail app is pushing as normal not sure if it was an update , I had the app set to stop syncing before maybe it worked with the old phone after an update , regardless it is working now

It wasn't working for most people outside the U.S.
What was weird was I didn't see the update in the My Apps list. I had to manually search for Google Voice. Then it showed me the update for it.

The latest Google Voice Blog post shows hope for people outside the US though. One of the things they celebrated in the post was making Voice available to all US users.
Then they go on to say they are working hard to make it available to more people. But then again, more than a year ago they said they were working hard to get it into Canada. Maybe we can blame the CRTC or something?
perfect for me!
Awesome, I'm up and running again!
minor google voice issue
experiencing a minor glitch with voice. when i click back from the main messages screen it does the screen zoom thing but then comes back to the message screen. only after i click back again does the app exit. any else experiencing this? i thought they fixed this with an update a while back.

Anyone got the Skype apk prior to 2.6.0.95 ?

Video calling was working just fine on my XOOM until the above update so.....has anyone got an APK for the previous version that they could possibly link me to?
I dunno if anyone else uses it but today when we tried to call my dad, the XOOM just locked up and was locked in the call with black video window. Very frustrating and my daughter really wanted to see her grandad.
So, any help greatly appreciated. ;-)
This version is pretty old but its the only one that works problem free on my Nexus One

Funny you say that, 'cause about an hour after the update I made a ~10-minute Video call to Israel (and one later within Cali, a lot less interesting ) and it worked flawlessly, w/o even any sync or lag issues.
Did you try rebooting? I'm rooted and overclocked, but I suspect that's had very little to do with my good performance.
Well i managed to track down 2.5.0.160 which seems to be the one i had prior to the issues and all is well again.
Thanks for responding guys.

I have the same problem with my Galaxy S WIFI 5.0. After update, the front/back camera is upside down.
Can place the apk somewhere accessible on the internet? Many many thanks.

[Q] still no 4.2.2 update for me

Hey there,
quick question, as i'm new to this, since this is my first android phone. so i've heard that 4.2.2 was released about a week ago. now apparently this update comes in waves, meaning that not everyone will get it at the same time. now i've got two questions about it, since i still haven't received this update:
- is this normal that you have to wait so long to get an update that's already available to a lot of people? (don't wanna do the framework trick)
- what is the purpose of that? please don't tell me, google couldn't handle the traffic when some people want to download this tiny update at the same time? oO
i'm just asking because im starting to worry if there's something wrong with my phone that makes it unable to receive system updates. i don't need the update that bad.
Yes. Don't worry.
I have a n4 ,n7 and n10. Framework worked for me 1st time with all the devices. Its very easy. Why not just do it???

Because i've read that it messes up / resets settings of certain apps.
Worked fine for me.
Clearing Google services framework from the apps section definitely works.
I haven't gotten it either. Framework worked on N10 and gnex. I'm mainly not forcing it on N4 out of curiosity of how long it will take. Yes, I'm strange but not really needing update on N4. No reboots, no butter in the update, etc.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2
I haven't got it either. Is that related to the country or the batch of the phone you purchased?
Still havent got it either. I dont wanna force it with the framework data delete trick, the update is nothing interesting so id like to wait and see how long it would take to recieve the OTA.

i know in canada, the updates go through service providers(if purchased from them) instead of google servers. maybe this is what is happening if you don't see the update yet?

No update for me either, but I don't mind it. Nothing major that I've read so far will force me to manually update my phone. If it doesn't come by Google I/O, then I'd worry, but by then KLP will probably be out.

I'm curious about this too. Oddly, clearing the cache from my Google Framework didn't work. I'm curious to see if battery life gets ANY better with this update.

They stagger the updates so their servers don't get overloaded with everyone trying to download the update at once. Microsoft does the same thing with Windows updates but they finish within a few days.
Canada here. My N7 took five days to get the OTA. It's been five days since the rollout began and still no OTA on my N4 yet.

Software update version MMB29M.G930VVRS2APB4

I took it, FoxFi still works :good: Odd thing is that the security patch is dated Feb 1...I thought this was going to get us March
Maybe someone can post their "about" screens and we can compare...may have gotten a new kernel or something.

Thanks! Yeah just looked at mine (pre-update) and the security patch says February 1st as well. Well good thing they locked our bootloader to keep us safe /s.

This is what the Verizon page says...very useful, not.
I'm very conflicted emotionally about this, on the one hand I'm frustrated that I don't know what this update did and on the other hand I'm overjoyed that after a week I already have an update to a Verizon Samsung phone....meanwhile my galaxy S6 hasn't received an update since November LOL.
It seems like it is just a security patch

I'd like a damn fix for downloading pdfs on chrome from my school's page, moodle. Samsung rep said he had no idea why it doesn't work, even after a factory reset. I'll try this now, knowing it probably isn't the fix I'm looking for.
Any chance of someone injecting root into the update, or is it to early?
Trying to decide whether to push it off or just grab it. I got the update notification on my s7 edge my wife has had nothing on her s7.

Security update without the most recent security patch even though Verizon says "The current software update gives you the most up to date Android™ security patch on your device.". Lame. They probably found a root exploit and closed it.

What browser? I have no problem downloading PDFs with Chrome.
Android System usage seems to be way less after this update. As of typing this its 12%, instead of mid 20's to mid 30's.

I'm using chrome. I was at bestbuy and my phone wouldn't download the PDFs, we did a factory reset and it worked. The next day it did not.
I went back in and the Samsung rep said sorry I don't know what's wrong. We downloaded different apps to open PDF, but chrome defaulted to its file viewer and said can not open PDF. But it works fine on opera. I'm going to go in tomorrow, and if it doesn't work in going to keep swapping phones until they figure it out. It's annoying and it seems to be a chrome issue with Adobe and chrome pulling plugs, but idk. I don't think the rep should back away from the issue.

Mine was up around that before the update, then a couple hours after it dropped to 10 to 12. Stayed there the rest of the day. Will be keeping an eye on it tomorrow to see how it is off a full charge.
I noticed that my phone goes into doze mode better. When I would take the phone if the charger at 100% and let it sit I would not enter doze mode. The battery would lose some percentage points instead of staying at 100%. This morning I took the phone if the charging pad at 7am and checked the phone at 8:15 am and it was still at 100%.

Anyone Having Trouble Using Textra on Their New Phone?

Nothing happens when I tap the send button. Anyone else having similar issues?
Yes, I am experiencing the same issue. A temporary workaround until a fix is produced is to enable "Send using Enter" in the settings.
Same here. I thought it was only me
Me too, I am back on the stock client for now. From what I can tell Textra needs to adjust touch placement for the notification bar. I was going to send them an email since they have been super responsive in the past... then I thought they probably hate me right now. lol
I noticed that you basically have to tap a CM(1/4") or two under what you actually want to touch. I'm sure they'll get it fixed soon once the device is in more users hands.
Ditto...also can't swipe to delete unless I increase the font size to 150% (Settings - Customize Look)
Experiencing this as well!

Understood, adb hasn't always been my friend either and definitely had some trouble with getting this one connected as well. Hopefully Textra will come out with an official update shortly. They are usually pretty good in that regard.

I couldn't stand using the Google messenger app anymore... so I spent a lot longer than I should have doing the ADB commands... I had to use an older version of the Android SDK install I had on one of my computers...lol
It works and yeay... still sad I had to do it. lol
Still can't get the app to work. Super frustrating.
