My G continues to have the no-ring problem, in the same way described as by everybody else in this thread. I've tried everything in this thread and nothing has worked.

I have a theory. I have noticed that my G often downloads emails by itself, and I think that I'm missing calls while it's doing that. I have several pop accounts set up, but I set them all to NOT automatically check for new email. However, it still does it. I know because new emails appear in my inbox accounts without me setting it to download, and also inbox always says "disconnecting" when I open it.

So, is there a way that I can turn this off so that it REALLY doesn't log in to download new emails unless I specifically tell it to? I suspect this is what's causing me to miss calls.

Thanks.
