Help GMAIL push not working

I did a search and the thread on this issue has been locked and it was for the Incredible.

Anyone else have this issue? I have enabled the mobile connection to be on.
 
Open the Power Control widget and put it on a screen.

There is a button that looks like a circle with arrows. If you enable this button you will get Gmail push, if the button is not green your gmail will only come on refresh.

This worked for me with the same problem.
 
Is your account set up in "Mail" or in "Gmail"? When I run the Gmail app it gets messages as they arrive but when I add the Gmail account to "Mail" it does not give me that option, only lets me poll at an interval. Kind of annoying to have two mail programs on my screen but I want them both to receive push email (the Mail app is for Exchange)
 
Check your battery settings. I had same problem and found mine was on Maximum Batter Saver (had put it on once when I was low on juice). Changed to Nighttime Saver and all was well.
