Nah -- just select "Switch back to the old version" on the screen that's telling you you need IE 4+.

Are u sure? Its been a few months since i looked at yahoo, but anyhow, i didnt go into the main mail.yahoo.com site, because too much to download. They have a mail check for WAP, which is excellent.
did u try http://wap.oa.yahoo.com/

how to get free yahoo email to my TP

Hay gang how can I get my free yahoo mail account on my Metro Flashed TP running Vetvitos rom ? I can't get it to work inless I turn off my proxy setting and then my internet doesn't work. Anyone know a work around this issue ? Any help would be great ! Thanks
Is your data connection setting on? I have his Rom and works great. Just add account in the Mail tab and add your username and password, It should work. let me know if this helps... Maybe I have understood your question wrong

Tell me your complete configuration for the internet connection set up and I'll see what I can tell you.
Free yahoo mail doesn't allow pop mail. You need to register for yahoo mail pro.

That is incorrect ! It works fine . No need to pay the $20 a year.
How then?
I've never seen this discussed... How do you get the Yahoo mail to sync? Do you have to access it through internet explorer or can you add the mailbox to your messaging the way you can with Hotmail?

Facebook not working after update

Hey all,
I don't know if any of you have encountered this problem yet but I decided to download the Facebook for Windows Mobile App from the Marketplace and I logged in and everything worked fine untill I opened the app up later on to find it will not update, I tried on WIFI and 3G etc Nothing happens it starts to refresh (eg the rotating loading icon appeared) and then stops and it doesn't actually refresh.
Is there a way to go back to the original app? or is it all around better to use the Opera web version?
Thanks very much for your time!

I'm running Dutty CDLC v15 and it's only started happening since yesterday. Maybe something wrong with Facebook? It works if you log out and log back in again though.
I uninstalled and reinstalled to see if it would work and it did, didn't think to try logging out to be honest ha-ha I think it may have something to do with the program. I will try and see what either Facebook or Microsoft says and hope they make a new update that actually works.
Thanks for the reply =]
Facebook itself is having problems. Been reading all over Twitter, people saying Facebook is down. Don't know how the site is,but the app definitely isn't working for me.
I posted about this over in general, was told the same thing, logging in and out seems to work but you have to log in and out every time you want to update.....
its a facebook side error though that's the bottom line......

HMM .. I found a different facebook APP called XDA FACEBOOK .. it doesnt do all the things the regular facebook app does and doesnt show photos yet but it DOES refresh so I wonder whats going on...
hmmm that weird.... maybe the fb app has gone the same way as the myspace app...... right down the plughole......
Same thing's happened to me. Anyone got a reason as to why? Or is it just related to the facebook crash?
I did a hard reset and installed FB first...Refresh works...after SPB backup (Restore)...didn´t Refresh...i guess it´s no FB and no Marketplace problem...
Here´s the solution...
Delete the "Facebook" and "FacebookInfo" files in the main dir of your mobile...start Facebook, login again...and it works...

only seems to work once.
then it's back to the 'no refresh' issue
Experiencing the same issue here, looking forward to a solution for this one.
Yeah I have not been able to get facebook to connect on my HD2 for a week now. I can still upload photos to facebook via the uploader, just cant update the app info... anyone know and app that works lol
....same here no updates possible since few days :-(
can anyone confirm if this advice is of any help?...
have you ever changed your facebook email address? check that the contact address in account settings matches your new email. i found that though i could login with my new email the old email address was still showing as contact address. i also reinstalled the facebook app so could also have been that which started it working again for me.
In my case I'm having problems logging in.
Regardless if I tick the "remember settings" square it keeps asking me to re-login with all of my credentials even after I hadn't shut off the phone... which didn't happen when I had the old Facebook Mobile version...

Hi, I'm the developer of the XDAFacebook app, and I can say that yes FB was down last week. The reason my app still worked was because the error that was breaking everyone had an easy work-around and I was able to release an update that worked.
I would say if you are not happy with the Microsoft app, please check mine out. It is still in early beta stages but will quickly become a full mobile client. Any feedback would be wonderful!

+1 same problem
I don't think we'll EVER see a fix. This app was developed by MS & not facebook, like on Android or Apple. So I think it's safe to say MS has abandoned it in favor of their WP7 facebook app.
I've been using joe coolish's xda facebook app. It works great, just doesn't have all the bells & whistles yet, but will.
Other than that I do use tweetdeck & the facebook app when I switch over to android, both of those are good, especially tweetdeck, you can update twitter, facebook, foursqaure & more all at once.

You have push mail set on exchange server defined under ActiveSync?
If so, I recall having similar problems with m.google.com few months ago, the reason being that Activesync would no longer autostart. What helped in my case was simple removing the connection and then setting it again from the start. Not sure if you suffer from the same AS dementia, but maybe give it a try.

from what I've checked yahoo does not provide push service for Windows Mobile - so my initial guesss might have been wrong - but it can be done anyway, in two ways:
- link your yahoo account to gmail account, then configure gmail push
- use sth called seven recommended in this thread

Yes it does, go into the accounts settings, then you will see the list with folders, open that and you can put a tick on the folders that you want to see (Junk, sent, trash etc)

Well, maybe it's different in ICS, but on GB, you open email, hit menu, hit more, hit account settings, hit sync schedule.
Though if you're talking about GMail, and not EMail, you can just turn off auto-sync in your Accounts and Sync settings.
its very simple go to settings> accounts and sync then untick the auto sync option..thats it

Interesting you did not thank me, but thanked the guy who responded an hour after me, and said the exact same thing I did... but I digress.
Did you try going into the email settings as I suggested?

So obviously there are some differences in the email app from Gingerbread to ICS. It's just a matter of navigating the menu to find the options you're looking for.
When you open the email app, and hit menu, do you get a "Settings" or "Account Settings" option? (if so, do you see a "Sync schedule" option inside that?)

That's the sync period. In other words, how far back to retrieve emails. There should also be a sync schedule, to set peak and off peak schedules on how often to sync.

You set it to what you want.
Push = emails retrieved when they are received.
Manual = on demand (when you first open the email app, or click "refresh")
You can also set it to intervals.
Peak/off peak is like day/night settings.
This is the same as GB...

It seems on ICS that these settings are not present, either in the main accounts sync settings, or in the stock mail client settings. I think they were there when I set the email account up, but perhaps cannot be changed subsequently?
Am I just missing something, or do I need to use another email client to get this capability?!

on samsung ics roms its email>menu>settings>select your account>email check frequency>set it to never
then it will only check when you open your email manually
Thanks skimminstones. Is it possible to change the number of emails downloaded, or is this missing in the stock app?

not that i can see. It just downloads whatever is waiting. Doesnt download any attachments automatically, youd have to open the email and press download for that.

See posts 10 and 11 in this thread. You can change how far back in terms of date it looks to download emails, but not a specific number of emails.
