How can I reenable Gmail notifications after disabling them through Inbox?

Question

I used to have both Inbox and Gmail installed. This meant duplicate notifications. Inbox had the option "Turn off Gmail notifications" which I had selected. Since then, Inbox has become defunct and I haven't been able to figure out how to undo that.



Crucially: all of my Gmail and Android settings turn notifications from Gmail on, but they still won't show up. Does anyone know what Inbox did and how I can undo it?

Answer

You have removed Inbox app, but the issue remains. If Inbox did modified Gmail settings, then you have to tried the "usual" steps:




  • Clear Gmail's cache.

  • Clear Gmail's data (this step also clears the cache): It will reset the app to default. You will have to login again to your account as you did the first time you used the app.

  • Remove and re-install Gmail (if it was not installed by default like in some custom ROMs).

  • Remove all Gmail updates (it will allow Gmail to return to the state it had when you bought the device).
