Arrrgghhh this is annoying me now....

When I first got my phone, it prompted me to set up an email account. I did this, and it also configured the installed Gmail app.

I now get 2 alerts for every single email I get!

Any ideas? Thanks

Ok, original problem solved by deleting the LG email app.

However, the Gmail app doesn't seem to deliver emails in realtime like the app is supposed to. It has done a few times, but doesn't do very often.

Another main problem is that it doesn't retrieve email when in Wi-Fi mode.

Please help?

Are you talking about mail sent directly to the Gmail account, or email sent to your normal account that Gmail is picking up via POP or whatever? Because if the latter, this is never in real-time. If the former, I'm not sure: if it's syncing at all, it should be doing so in real-time.

As for not working over Wi-Fi, that seems odd. Everything okay at your router end?

I have a .gmail.com email address so yeah it's a Gmail account, and I'm using the Gmail app.

I have spent the last half hour testing it. When my phone is connected via 3G, the new email sent from a totally different email address (yahoo and aol) arrives within 60 seconds. When my phone is connected via Wi-Fi, nothing comes through, and I have to manually go into the app and click refresh.

My Wi-Fi is working fine no problems.

Edit > just read that wi-fi is disabled when the screen is locked which is why no emails come through. Thats a shame.
