MissedIt and K9 Mail

whitedragon551 · Dec 25, 2011

I have switched from the Gmail app to K9 mail so I can get notifications on email through MissedIt. However it doesnt detect my emails. It works fine for text messages and phone calls, but wont count any emails. I have it setup and all the names and references are right. Any ideas or perhaps settings I should change to see if it helps?

Anyone?

Go to Missed It! On your app drawer, then select Monitored Elements>Menu>Add>Select K9>It will prompt you to edit what the alert wil say, then press ok and you're good to go.

Already added. The string names match in my formatting as well.

Maybe the widget is just too small to show the notification? I use the stock email app so I can't be sure about K9. I tried that before and it worked though.

Everything fits on the screen fine. It just doesnt count the emails.

Do you have Missed It enabled as an Accessibility service? You have to do this to get notifications from apps. From the home screen choose Menu > Accessibility and then make sure Missed It! is checked, as well as Accessibility.

You would think so since I get them from missed phone calls and text messages just fine.

I'd say just check. I can't be certain, but I remember when I first installed missed it, it was turned off.

AFAIK Missed It! Doesn't need that permission to access SMS and call log data.

Have any idea how to get to the Accessibility services in MIUI? I cant find it anywhere.

That was it. Thanks. I used this method here:

Ah just found the solution.

Install a market application that can run terminal commands (e.g. Android Terminal Emulator).
Run the application, and execute the following command:
am start -n com.android.settings/.AccessibilitySettings

Next enable Accessibility, and allow Missed It! as well.

I've tested it and it works!

Tried this with the Gmail app. No dice. Any idea why MissedIt doesnt pick up Gmail notifications, but K9 Mail notifications with a Gmail account?

chanchan05 · Dec 28, 2011

The new update with Gmail app doesn't allow third party apps to check it.

Okay not to thread jack but this seems like a resonable place to ask.

Does anyone else get weird numbers with K9-mail notifications on missedit?

Like if i have 6 emails sometimes it shows up as like 15 on missedit. For now the only number that seems to work right everytime is when i only have 1 email. Otherwise missedit always shows i have way more emails than i actually do...

MissedIt picks them up, but only if the latest Gmail app is set to notify in the status bar. The way I had things setup was no SMS or emails would notify in the status bar. MissedIt would be hidden until I had a notification at which point it would count.

Sorry I haven't checked this in a while. I did notice you thanked someone else for telling you to do the same thing I said. Oh well, as long as it helped.
