[Q] Hotmail Activesync for Wildfire - Wildfire Themes and Apps

Ok - yes I use hotmail....
I see andriod 2.1 is not yet supported but 2.2 seems to work.
I would really like to use it on my Wildfire - calendar and contacts sync is very important for me.
So how can we make it work?
I've looked around and seen a froyo client won't work nor does the Touchdown or K9 apps (I tried K9).
But the galaxy s email client is reported working - I've found the apk but am not sure how to install it (usual install fails on my rooted phone).
Anyone any ideas?
Thanks
Mark

Froyo works without HTML Emails.
Touchdown works fine for me.
I don't know about the Galaxy email client.

[Q]TouchDown not syncing

Sorry I posted this question on the development forum first....
Has anyone noticed that on rooted 1.1.0 touchdown is not syncing anymore? I'm sure it was working on my auto-nooted 1.0.1 but then I restored several times and now on the newly installed rooted 1.1.0 I can no longer sync my google contacts. I then tried it on nookie froyo and can not get it to work either. Can anyone with touchdown verify that?
Thanks!
I can't seem to get touchdown working after using autonooter and then applying the 1.1 update. It was working for me in 1.0.1
Sent from my nook color XDA App
one problem I noticed on our exchange environment was every time I did a manual sync it created a new device partnership on the exchange server. At the time I was running 1.0.1 rooted though. I haven't tried 1.1 yet. If you have access to your exchange infrastructure you may want to check out how many device profiles you have associated with your account. Exchange I think has a set limit of 10 partnerships per user.
On a similar note touchdown doesn't seem to want to sync on froyo either. however I think it's having trouble getting past the 2010 device policies. Strange that it works on my hero.
I had problems setting up. Their support was phenomenal. So I would contact directly. Solution was their new beta release (not on market). Now works great for me on 1.1... TX didn't like wifi reset. Also contacts can be an issue if TX is reformatting on sync (then sync can take an hour and get stuck in a loop)
anyone find resolution to this problem?
I am having the same issue. Touchdown works fine on my Evo but nook color cant even initialize activesync now. This used to work on 1.0.1 but would create new partnerships every sync.

[Q] How to delete IMAP emails from SGSII?

Hi,
I am trying to delete emails from my IMAP account an my SGSII (Samsung stock emailing programm).
Now my problem is that all emails I delete once just reappear the next time I sync with my IMAP account. So its simply impossible to delete emails on my phone.
This problem also exists on the GalaxyTab as far as I know.
Hotmail works fine(but hotmail doesnt use IMAP as far as I know).
One simple solution would be to just not use the samsung emailing program. I tried K9 today, but I kinda dont like the fact that it doesnt come with an widget. I also like the stock program better.
Any clue what I am doing wrong?
its also not possible to open most attachments directly from inside the emailing application(.pdf,.jpg etc.).
It does work occationally but must of the time it doesnt.
Solved:
Not using Polaris Office did the trick for me.

How did you resolve the IMAP email problem? I'm experiencing the same behaviour. Gmail IMAP works fine (with the stock email client, not the stock Gmail client). However, my work email which is IMAP doesn't work correctly.
I simply stopped using the stock program.
And now I kinda started to love K9.
But K9 didn't get along with my hotmail account(it has no IMAP;always redownloaded old emails;I had a data usage of 200mb in one day^^) so I started to auto. redirect all my mails to gmail. That works flawless til now.
oh man, same here!
I use the same settings on Nexus One, V880 or even Ipod Touch, both works except SG2! any clue yet?
No I didnt find no solution.
I am happy with K9 now .

Apparently using POP instead of IMAP, you have the option to delete from the server... Of course IMAP is supposed to do this anyway, but worth considering POP - especially if the other advantages of IMAP are of no interest to you.
Personally, folder synchronisation means nothing if it can't even sync deleted emails...
I tried to chase this up with Samsung support, but of course they're useless... It's obviously a software bug, but they suggested a reflash and then trip to the service centre if that doesn't fix it...
We all know a trip to the service centre will certainly not fix it if a reflash wont...
Curiously, I've got a VHA ROM on my phone, and wondering what everyone else has, presuming it might be an issue in the branded ROM, but not in the generic ROM...
I'm sure I'm not the only one who cares, but I did a little bit of research, and although it doesn't seem to help, there's setting the IMAP path prefix (usually 'INBOX'), which should direct deleted emails into INBOX.Trash as opposed to the android Trash folder, and therefore delete them off the server.
Sadly, trying 20 variations, I still couldn't get it to work... but it might work with your email provider (just didn't with mine)
If all else fails, and you really want to use the Samsung email app (which I do, since K9 does not have activesync Exchange support - only the other one, which doesn't help me), instead of deleting emails, just go: Menu/Move to Folder/INBOX.Trash - this is the same as what Delete should be doing...
Hope that helps somewhat...
same issue: any solution found yet?

[Q] Fix Android MS Exchange setup wizard to allow Lotus Traveler connection

We are running Lotus Notes at work (I will accept all the pity that anyone cares to give me). We have version 8.x and have Lotus Traveler servers up and running. The Lotus Traveler software on android leaves a few things to be desired.
Traveler server can speak standard ActiveSync. The problem is that the Gingerbread and Froyo versions of the Exchange setup on android broke the ability to put in a custom URL for the "exchange/traveler" server.
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=14486
Is anyone aware of any way around this? I would like to remove the traveler software and just use the built in email app with my lotus email. There are some apps that you can run on the android that will use ActiveSync to work with a traveler server but I really wanted to use the built in email app if possible.
Maybe someone who developed a custom Email.apk that allowed for a manual server URL?
Thank you.
Working EMail.apk
Hi,
I had the same problem. I patched the current EMail.apk from Gingerbread, now it works for all my Traveller Accounts. This version is the Galaxy Tab version, but should also work on smaller devices.
Have fun,
Bender.

Thank you. How does one install this? Do I need to remove the old Email.apk or can I install this one over the top? (phone is rooted but does not have custom rom or kernel)
Problem with BodyPreference
Hi,
I have one more problem with the current app.
I get only Mime Encoded EMails and they are not displayed correctly.
I have to first work this out, then you can use the app.
When you have a roote phone, all you have to do is go to /system/app
delete Email.apk and Email.odex (if you have one), then copy the new Email.apk to this plays. Open Email.apk, the app is installed and then reboot your device.
Bender.
Awesome. Thank you for working on this.
Any luck making this work?
I have a Lotus Notes Traveler account and i'm trying to make use of the built-in email in ICS. All my calendar entries and mail headings are syncing just fine but there's no visible body to be read in any email.
Anyone with a solution?
Nobody?

Hi,
I am on stock ICS Galaxy Note and want to use my lotus notes using native email client but I am not able to sync because my company uses port number in server name like :
mail.mydomain.com:15001/servlet/traveler
if i put :15001 the mail client Next button gets disabled any fix for this?
Same here.... This custom port is killing me... You could try setting a port forwarding from another computer, setting ot as you server.
Not sure it will work, but it might.
Also if anyone here has the latest LotusTraveler.apk (v. 8.5.3.2) could you please post?

[Q] Exchange 2003 -> Android 2.3.5 Calendar sync problems

Hi there,
After having posted earlier about the sync problems here, I would like to find out what is causing the problem.
I have done a lot of flashing lately and am pretty sure it must be either the Calendar/Agenda or the Sync program in Android 2.3.5 that's causing the problems (not sync-ing edited items made on the Exchange/Outlook client side).
Other clients, when installed on the phone, like TouchDown for Exchange, synchronizing everything fine.
My first question would be:
Has the Activesync program on the phone been updated from Android 2.3.4 to 2.3.5?
For, if not, it must be the Calendar/Agenda app that needs to be at the origin of the problems.
Can anyone confirm this?
The other question would be:
Depending on the answer on the first question, could either the sync or the Calendar/Agenda from 2.3.4 be ported to 2.3.5?
I'll gladly be willing to test. I have tried myself to replace the apps, but I don't seem to be able to find the appropriate files.
Anyone any help?
Regards,
Solved by updating to CM7 Android 2.3.7
Hi there,
Problem has been solved for me by updating to VictoryMod 2.1 (based on CM7) which is running Android 2.3.7.
Regards,
I have the same problem with google calendar sync. I have had it since I changed to 2.3.5 JVT and it's still here after changing to 2.3.5 JVU on Galaxy S. Is there a way to fix this without changing the entire rom?
I have also the same problem with GSII but I can't upload another rom, it's a company phone.
Is there anyway to have it working on GSII?
Thx, David
Exchange sync has always been iffy for me. I eliminated the problem using Google Calendar on the phone and using G-Syncit with Outlook to keep my desktop sync'd with Google. It isn't as elegant as using Exchange exclusively, but it has been flawless.
I guess it will work until I can get over the fear of migrating the Exchange Server to Google Mail.

SMS Sync with Exchange 2010

Anyone noticed that the Note features SMS Sync with Exchange 2010? Haven't used a Samsung Android phone before so wasn't sure if this was just a standard Samsung thing or specific to the Note but it's overall really nice. I thought this was something only available if you used Windows Mobile 6.5, but it's working great on my Note.
Anyways, just noticed it and thought it was kind of cool. Wasn't sure if anyone else had seen it as well. Here's the Guide if you're interested in learning more about it - http://help.outlook.com/en-us/beta/910552b1-c99c-4046-8bbc-9d2e8dbcbfda.aspx
Yep, this is the first Android handset I've had that does it. Nice to see Android starting to make inroads into the more advanced features of Exchange. The Note also syncs tasks, too, which is also a first for me (for Android - of course WM6.5 had these features years ago IIRC). Now if the Note could sync notes, it would be nirvana (and a pun). And if S-memo were somehow integrated with exchange notes so that your s-memos were synced with Exchange and viewable in Outlook and OWA...there are serious places Google could take this if they felt like it.

My god, the thought of this just makes me want to hurry up and deploy 2010. Screw public folders!
(we are still in test on SP 2010)
HTC started working in syncing Exchange tasks in Sense 3.0 or 3.5 as well. I can never remember which version is which.
SGS2 already syncs tasks. But I have no Exchange 2010 to test with. So not sure if SMS is supported on SGS2.
on the epic touch 4g on sprint which is there sgs2 i never had sms sync.
I've had the feature since I put the vanilla Samsung 2.3 ROM on my original AT&T GTab. I always turn it off. It was cool to see an SMS in Outlook but the sender was listed as the phone number and I couldn't reply to the SMS from Outlook. If you can reply to the SMS with Outlook with your server, then the feature is more useful.
you need exchange 2010 to do that. 2007 will let you recieve them.
Hi, I'm new here. I'm using a HTC HD2 with WM6.5 (and Office 365) and have no experience with Android. SMS sync is the main reason why I'm still on WM6.5. But the phone has been giving me problems and I've been seriously looking at alternatives. Was looking at the HTC One X plus Touchdown (exchange Activesync client app) but learnt that TD still has bugs for SMS sync.
Was very excited when I saw this thread. So I gather the Galaxy Note has it's own Samsung stock EAS client which allows SMS sync? Does it work well i.e. all texts sent and received on your phone syncs up to OWA and Outlook and vice versa? What about the Galaxy S II?
Would really appreciate your sharing your experience with this. Thanks.

Have you tried cruising the android market? I doubt that samsung is the first to have actually done this.
just a quick search of the market found this.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nitrodesk.touchdownpro&feature=search_result
not sure if it would work for you, but it's a place to start. With that being said you could essentially find ANY android phone you want, but the note is still the best
touchdown will do it but one of the issues is if the carrier supports the feature. at&t just happens to support this. the sgs2 international had this functionality as well. i found this out from another person in the company i work for.
Hey guys, thanks for the reply. Yes from what I've read, Touchdown seems to be the best option out there - far ahead the competition. Plus not only do they sync the usual stuff (email, contacts, calendar, tasks), they apparently also sync notes and SMS. A godsend for me...just like WM6.1/5! I dug further and even joined the forums in Touchdown but then found out there were still bugs with SMS sync and others. So I held back. And I found this thread. I've been scouring the net just to figure out what people's experience are with each but nothing is clear. As it stands, it just appears I have 2 options:
1) Get Touchdown (full featured EAS) and hope they fix the bugs, get a newer ICS phone
or
2) Get a SGS2 or SG Note (assuming the SMS sync works well), forego the notes sync.
Or maybe wait for SGS3 and hope the SMS sync feature is carried over?
sms sync works with stock email client
anyone able to use this to SEND sms? outlook 2010 supports the feature, and the message gets as far as the outbox on the note, but for some reason, goes to the email outbox, and not the sms box.
Also - if you have any alerts configured SMS sync screws that up. I had a rule that would send me a TXT message whenever my SQL server sent an email with high importance (aka a failed job). Exchange wont do that, becasue SMS sync is on.

You can still have public folders in 2010 and theyre easy to migrate. The SMS sync is delayed (I dont use it, I use google voice) but fine.
Yeah you CAN have Public Folders, but since we just invested in a large SP2010 farm I don't WANT public folders.

I've got to ask... how is it working great? I bought a note, set up SMS Sync (on both the stock GB and the stock ICS), and neither was usable. Sure, I could send SMS from outlook fine, but:
Sent SMS did not get displayed on the phone in the email client, or the SMS client
Received SMS displayed in the email client but do not show who they are from
Received SMS in the email client can not be replied to
SMS sent via the SMS client on the phone do not display in the email client on the phone, and do not get synced to Exchange
I could go on... but basically, it wasn't usable. How did you find it?
For what it's worth, I tried Nitrodesk's thing and it wasn't any better. I have a strong suspicion Samsung may have bought it to integrate into their phones actually, as it had the same bugs.

I just bought a Samsung S3 and my experience with the native Activesync and Exchange 2010 is ok but far from great. Here's what I am experiencing:
1) The native Activesync is not matching the contact name in the Activesync Contacts with the incoming SMS message. So, when I am looking at the SMS message in the Android "MESSAGES" icon/app, I DO see a matched 'friendly' name. But, when it gets sent to Exchange via Activesync it drops the friendly name. So, in the Android EMAIL icon/app, I only see the sending phone number.
2) When I'm using the full Outlook client at a computer, I see the TXT message come in and with the full Outlook client it only shows the sender as the 'phone number' and no matching occurs there as well. I think the root cause is no matching at the phone, so it's a pass-through here.
3) When I reply to one of the SMS messages with the full Outlook client at a computer, replyabilility does work and it puts the sending phone number in the TO: field and still no matching.
4) FAIL: In OWA (Exchange 2010) there is NO replyability with the SMS message. You can select REPLY but it does not automatically fill/paste in the destination TO: and you have to manually enter it. This lack of replyability is only with OWA, but the full client.
5) Performance, is fine, messages fly great and instantly.
This is my first Android exerience. I came from a Windows Mobile phone, and I chose the Android function over the iPhone because the iPhone does not support SMS Sync. My phone is stock, no apps added except Facebook. I did try to load Touchdown but I could not get all the functions to work. All that was sync'ing was email, no contacts/SMS/Notes/Calendar....etc. I did not spend more than 10 minutes troubleshooting so I abandoned efforts.
My phone is running 4.0.4, Kernel 3.0.8- 1092717
I promptly disabled my SMS sync. I don't need all my personal text messages flowing through my employer's line of sight. Not saying I have anything to hide, but they just don't need it.
