I'm haveing a hard time settings notification sound on my S5 (I use norwegian language so sorry if menu item names may be translated a bit wrong): I set the event notification sound (the pull down event list and the icons in the status line) to a sound like "beep once" The I set the build-in e-mail app notification sound to "you have new mail" (to do that I must first check the mark to show notification in the info/event bar) BUT when a new mail arrives I get no "you have new mail"! I just get a "beep once" (like on all other events). I tried to set the notification sound for events to "none" to see if that overrides the e-mail one. Nope. Now I get no sound at all (neither for e-mail nor for other events). Anyone else noticed this? Am I setting up somthing wrong? Don't say that the e-mail app must be running to give a notification (I have the e-mail widget on the homescreen)? Where do one report a bug like this?

Hello, everyone. I have a Samsung Galaxy Express AT&T GoPhone. It is running Android 4.1.2. I'd like to get help finding an app that notifies me if I have incoming POP3 e-mail from my own personal domain…not Gmail or Yahoo or Outlook.com. But I want the notification in the form of an icon that appears at the top of the home screen. A few apps on my phone display an icon if I get a message from a particular web site. The icons appear in the top section of the phone, in the upper left. I'm embedding a screen capture of my phone to show you where these icons appear. The native e-mail app on my phone is adequate, but I have to unlock the screen to see if I get mail. I also have an app called Enhanced E-Mail, but I don't think it displays an icon in the upper part of the phone. I have my own personal domain, with nine e-mail addresses. I'm concerned about only one e-mail address. If someone sends me e-mail on this particular address, I'd like an icon to be displayed in the area designated in the screen capture. I want this icon to be there even if the home screen is locked. Does anyone know of such an app? I'm assuming there must be, since I have a few apps that do something similar, such as Facebook Messenger and OK Cupid. Of course, I'd prefer a free app, but I'm willing to pay a few dollars for a good app, if it does what I'm seeking. Thank you for your assistance! J. Danniel
