Simple question about email notifications - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4

So for a while getting notifications for spam. I almost went crazy trying to figure out how to disable them but I finally managed to. I can't, for the life of me, figure out what I did but it worked.
Just the other day a confirmation email was accidentally sent to that folder. I had to go there to retrieve it but after I did I now get notifications once again. I'm not getting spam in my inbox, it's going to the right place I just don't want to know about it. I went to sync settings for that folder but there is no option to turn sync off or, at the very least, to turn notifications off. I can post screenshots to clarify

perhaps no one has the same issue? perhaps you need to post more specific info? like what build base, what rom, what email client
stuff like that helps with getting answers

SMS Problem. Need help ASAP.

I'm texting this girl I want to get with and she say that every text says "Hi, my name is david and you have the wrong number". It said something different when I was on CleanROM, and because of said problem I switched to SteelROM. Now I have the same problem.
Is it something caused by the ROMs because this only happened when I switched from Synergy.
I'm going back to Synergy now. I also have this thing when someone calls and I click to answer it, it says that someone is calling and I have to press '1' to answer it.
How can I fix this. It's pissing me off because this chick is getting mad and that's not good for business. lmfao But seriously, please help.

the press 1 to answer thing is a google voice issue.. the text maybe as well.. how long ago did you set it up?? go to the google voice website from a computer and check through all of your settings, i know from there you can change the press 1 thing.. i would then look at the settings for that person individually..
i know my best friend had almost the exact same thing happen with a girl that he was interested in.. but he just wouldnt receive her texts, she didnt get a random text back.. he ended up unsubscribing from voice to fix it, because he didnt want to take the time to fix the settings.

Blank message from Anonymous sender after MMS

Every time I receive a picture in an MMS I get another message from "Anonymous" no subject. I open it and it say "message not found" I receive the message multiple times until I delete the original message. This happens in the stock messaging app and in Chomp. Uninstalled Chomp and it still happens on stock.
Rooted running UnNamed v1.0.1
Bump for some help. This is really annoying

Does this happen when you try to send a message to certain people, or just one person in particular? I wonder if maybe it's a read receipt notifying you that it was delivered? I'm on a custom ROM so I can't check. Try going into messaging, hit menu, then select settings.
Otherwise, maybe it's a carrier issue.
No Trojan this happens when I receive picture messages. From anybody on multiple carriers. May be an at&t issue. I think this happened on my Infuse too but don't remember if I ever resolved it

It happened to me on my Atrix. I found if I ignored it and didn't open it, it actually deleted itself. As far as I can tell, it's related to read receipts. Unnamed Rom doesn't offer the ability to request them and I don't think Stock did either but I also don't use a 3rd party messaging Application. Try turning off Read/Delivery Receipts on your device and see what happens.

From what I have been able to tell, it is a Carrier Issue AND read receipt issue.
Anyone found a fix for it yet?
Happened to me today, we both use GoSMS but I think she has enabled delivery receipt.
did you happened to fix it?
I love how people are complaining that this was brought up again in another thread, which in fact led it to being locked even though there is no answer on this board. It is really annoying getting those messages. I have searched "blank anonymous", "blank message", and just "anonymous". Only two threads come up that are related to this issue. This one, and the one that was just locked. So if anyone truly has an answer to this issue and doesn't worry about trying to look cool by insulting users, please provide the answer, or at least point us in the right direction.
Thanks
I found a way that worked for my phone. I'm using ChompSMS and I would always get those and they would keep popping up.
All I had to do was open Chomp settings > SMS & MMS Network > MMS Network Settings > set "auto retrieve" to UNCHECKED.
I cant confirm that this will work (especially if you dont use Chomp as default), but it did work well for me. Good Luck

I've tried that. It doesn't do anything. Once I download the mms I'll get the anonymous message.
I've had this issue when I was on my Captivate. I tried flashed a few different ROMs and even went back to stock and the issue was still there. It was one of the reasons why I upgraded to the GS2 before my contract expired. However, the issue appeared on the new phone. The real problem was that my SIM card was messed up. Once they replaced my SIM card, everything was working fine again.
anyone found a fix?

Trouble Receiving Twitter Notification after Switch to Verizon

Hey guys,
Considering theres no Q&A I figured i'd ask you guys here. I just Switched from Srpint to Verizon yesterday and carried over my Phone number. Now for the longest time whenever A/C, XDA, Droid-Life, and so on posts an article, and when they Tweet about it, I always get a Text message Notification. Now Im not getting any text from these feeds at all. Ive checked all my Twitter settings and so o and cant seem to figurte this out. Now with sprint its seemed al of a sudden I had a Google Voice account which I never even knew I had, and im not sure if thats interfering with anything. Anyone know how I can fix this so I can get my Text Notifications from Twitter? I'd really appreciate it.
**Also im not sure if this is due to me not Canceling my Sprint account yet. I dont think thats the issue but i'd figure i'd add that in**
THanks guys
Jon

[Q] UnNamed ROM issue

I apologize for starting a thread, but I don't have enough posts to reply in the developers forum.
I'm using UnNamed 2.1.1
my notification sound appears to be stuck on "whistle" despite what I set it to.
I set my notification ringtone to "Aldebaran" and "Antares" but no dice.
Restarting the phone didn't help.
I haven't heard the phone ringtone yet so I can't speak to that.
Anyone know a work around for this?

Could be a bad flash or you could boot into recovery and fix permissions or wipe cache. Just some suggestions but I am no expert. Also I noticed that if you want to change the sms ringtone, you have to do from the settings menu inside of the messaging app and not the actual sound settings menu.

Ugh, no idea how much of a jerk I feel like right now.
I could have sworn you set it through the sounds menu.
I guess this is why they don't let people with low post numbers reply in the developer's forums >_<
Sorry everyone.

It is confusing! I don't know why they do it this way!?! One would logically think when you are setting the "notification" ringtone; it is for text messages!
So don't feel bad.
No worries dude I was mortified they used a ringtone that terrible and kind of hid the settings.

Anyone have issues with Exchange Sync

Anyone having issues with their Xperia S receiving push emails? Mine only works with manual refresh, while my X10 works fine. Anyone else having this issue? If its a firmware issue then I'll wait for a fix. Don't want to flash the whole thing again without knowing for sure. Thanks in advance.
not at all. It has been really good.
Are you on Google Apps? or personal domain?
I'm on personal domain from my work place. Trying every configuration I could find searching the internet, but don't want to go to the last resort(reflash the whole thing) unless I really have to

Go to Phone Settings/Accounts&Sync/ and make sure that Activate auto-sync is on and click on the email right on the bottom and make sure everything you want is checked.

I am very Gmail dependent and its funny when you first get the phone and setup Gmail, it doesn't do this automatically. So I always go and do this and that goes to all email once you do it.
I bet they just want to make sure you do it yourself so later you can't blame them for extra data use.
Anyways, happy that you haven't got fired
Can you let me know if the exchange email app allows you to flag emails and then sort view by flagged emails so all flagged emails show up instead of having to scroll down the list of many emails to see the flagged ones? So far I have only found sense email app to do this and touchdown which I don't like. I am on the fence of buying this phone but need that functionality. Can anybody also post some screenshots of how the exchange email app looks like?
Thanks all
