I love Gmail, but what's missing imo is imap-idle support for third-party-accounts. Is there any chance that this is going to make it into future versions? Is there maybe already a feature request for that on their bugtracker?
Anyone else have duplicate notifications even after deleting mail from a homail account?
I get notified of new email, I delete the spam and then seconds later they re appear and new notification.
Is there any chance to change the profile picture of IMAP-accounts?
I have 4 mail-accounts set up on gmail and only my original Gmail-account has a profile pic. the others just have a pink circle with an M (for the first letter of the adress) and they all look the same.
If there is no regular way in the app: Maybe an xposed-module or a hack for rooted users?
Hi Guys,
This is the much awaited Gmail app 5.0 from Android Lollipop 5.0
How to install V1
Standalone installation
Download Gmail 5.0
Allow unknown sources goto settings->security and check unknown sources
Install and enjoy
Updating from previous version
Disable previous version of Gmail
Download Gmail 5.0
Install and Update
Installing as a system app
Download Gmail 5.0
Move PrebuiltGmail.apk to system/app and set its permissions
How to install V2
Clear cache of Gmail app and rename your old Gmail.apk to Gmail.apk.bak. In my case it was in SYSTEM/APP folder.
Rename old Exchange.apk and Email.apk to Exchange.apk.bak and Email.apk.bak. Those names can differ but should be similar.
Now copy here (SYSTEM/APP folder) the new Exchange3Google.apk and Email.apk and change their permissions to rw-r-r (like everything around)
Now go to DATA/APP folder and copy here com.google.android.gm-1.apk. Change permissions to rw-r-r
In SYSTEM folder find build.pro. Open it in editor. Find ro.build.type=user and change user to userdebug.
Save it and restart your phone.
I think that I found why it fc when trying to write a new message, if you have a theme (for cm theme engine) that change gmail look, try to disable it and see if it works
You have to install the Exchange services apk as well. It won't work without it. I have it installed on mine and it is working flawlessly. attached to this post.
