Instant notification with Gmail in Android.

Since the addition of "doze" on recent versions of Android, notifications of new messages from Gmail can have a delay (from several minutes to a few hours). More here. Since Android 10, it is possible to add gmail to the white-list of "doze", without this setting being forgotten at each startup.

Connect to device.

Verify that you are connected to your device with adb by using the following command:

adb devices

NOTE: If adb replies that you are not authorized, you must authorize the connection from your Android device.

Whitelist Gmail.

Add gmail to the whitelist with the following command:

adb shell dumpsys deviceidle whitelist +com.google.android.gm

Verify whitelisted applications.

You can check the applications in the white list with the following command:

adb shell dumpsys deviceidle whitelist
