Galaxy Tab Email Client Beta 2 - Streak 5 Android Development

ok folks just finished playing with this for the moment, hows about a galaxy tab email client for the streak
few issues in here though at min , they are listed below,
What is working?
Gmail Setup(also through "Other" setup as IMAP")
Gmail mail loaded
Gmail can send mail
Logging working so it keeps track of what has been sent/received
Rotating to portrait works
Notifications
Yahoo and Hotmail(possibly as well as gmail)
Conversation mode
Deleting messages
Switching between folders within mailbox(click on INBOX)
Exchange Email Fixed
Refresh Button Added
Issues
pop email accounts will add but never show emails, use imap instead as this should work.
ill probly play further with this also, and thanks to celljunkie for helping out this little port
link to the update zip: http://downloads.streakdroid.com/djsteve/tabmail.zip

Had this on my Samsung Captivate earlier and it was very bad. After about 3 days it would just crap out totally.
The only good email.apk i found on the samsung hardware was the lastest email.apk in the JPY roms that are 2.2.1
I think you maybe disappointed putting all this work in and the tab email sucks.

Steve you are a one man wrecking crew! Keep up the great work!

yeah - did it via clockwork - super easy. I tried the beta 1 version last night which was a manual install, but that shouldn't matter... beta 2 installs via clockwork.

ok ive installed the new email client, however i am slightly confused, i just wish to confirm that this just replaces the defult email app, and so there would be no additional email application other then this?
yup just found out for myself.lol
one additional question does anybody know the correct settings to set up a hotmail email account?

seems to keep force closing on me
fixed it, yes you must have them all as imap or it will force close, but wow- this is a much better email client than the standard streak email- and better than gmail app too- would be nice to have a widget that can work with it tho

Solution stolen from modaco forums Tab email client thread(johnston in particular):
"
try setting up your hotmail as exchange using m.hotmail.com and then just use your full email address and password.
you should be able to do this for hotmail.com and .co.uk accounts just make sure m.hotmail.com is your server setting.".
I was struggling with hotmail until used these settings. now it just works.

also from modaco, lol.
Per steve for FC:
"clear data in manage apps"

thanks just done it, with active sync, that messed me up a lil b4 too as because i kept removing the "/" when writing the username or domain section which was silly of me. but yes works brilliantly now

Has anyone got it working with your comcast email? I can send email but do no receive anything.

I tried but it says unable to connect to server. Do I use the same (mail.comcast.net) in the imap area and same for (smtp.comcast.net)? It seems when I do a manual setup I get unable to connect. When I do a auto setup it works but unable to receive but could send mail.

Anyone get gmail to work with exchange?

I just installed this and set up my work exchange account as it had been with the stock email program. All I get is a "connection error" message. I know the settings are correct. Is there something I need to do to enable exchange that is not readily obvious in the settings menu, or is this just a bug that needs to be fixed?
Thanks

I keep getting fc,s with it. Ill wait till it is more stable but hatsoff to dj steve

whats a good hotmail app with custom sync schedule?

im looking for a good hotmail app that i can set sync schedule, i only want it to sync a few times a day not constantly. a few of the apps i've tried doesnt show junkmail folder which i also use.
any suggestions?
If you are using Hotmail and not Gmail on your google- powered phone you're doing it wrong.

Geez guys he asked for a Hotmail solution not Gmail.
Microsoft Hotmail now supports Activesync/Exchange. All your contacts, calendar and email flows down.
Select Corporate email setup.
Username is your full email address.
Server is. m.hotmail.com
Domain blank.
Set update to whatever you want from Push to hours.
Btw, I am a huge advocate of Enhanced Email.

Email sync

Trying to set gmail account using email app instead of gmail app. Setting it up using exchange. Have always used m.google.com. I've done this time and time again on my captivate. But all I get is is periodic pop UPS saying unable to connect to server. Anyone else get this figured out? Email and password are correct. Thanks

ICS and stock email app

Hello forum-mates:
I use the stock ICS email app which has exchange server and it syncs and emails are in but when I click on email there is no body for the email and all you see is the subject and sender with a blank white screen below.
I have flashed the same ROM three times with issue.
EDIT: also replaced the EMAIL.apk and Exchange.apk with stock one and no change.
Any cure?
Working fine for me, have setup 2 Exchange Accounts and 3 IMAP Accounts and all are working 100%, quite chuffed with it actually as the stock email client for GB was a pile of useless crap, the one on ICS is great.
Working well here. Two echange accounts working.
In fact it's too good, as it's picking up the server requesting permissions for wiping the phone etc.. I think that's Exchange 2010+.
Just let them try
Thanks guys,
On Gingerbread I had setup Google apps email with no problem on email app (not gmail app) and it was working flawlessly, but now it doesn't as I see for a second a flicker of something to be there but disappear.
I did set it up on gmail account, but I was wishing for regular email app.
Exactly same problem here. The strange part is that it happens with only one of my two google accounts. Have tried deleting data, cache and mail accounts but no luck.
Help please!

Mine is perfectly OK... if it is OK with us and not with yours, then one of us is either lucky or doing something wrong... try to reconfigure again...
Just only one "unlucky" thing, is there any widget for the stock email?
Sent from my LT26i using Tapatalk 2
I have tried to put account 10 time. I have re-flashed the whole ROM 3 times. I have replaced the email and exchange app files with stock android and no luck. There should be something wrong.
Maybe this problem is only when you try to add the google apps account to regular email app?
My Google email account is also sync with stock email app, and together with my corporate email and two yahoo email accounts, they are working normally...
Not sure if adding another account of gmail would bring that problem of yours...

I son't want to steal this thread, but this i s very interesting. Since I use Android ()from 1.5 times till now) I've always used gmail app for well gmail But it has it's issues, like inability to send notification to third party aps and so on.
Can you please tell me how is your experience with using gmail in mail app? Did you try gmail app?
If someone here is using mail app with gmail account I'd also like to hear your opinions on this. Let's face it, Sony's mail app with two pane view and other improvements seems way better than gmail even from ics
Thank you in advance

NO,
and I gave up waiting for CM9 release whenever, hopefully soon and maybe that fixes the issue.
For time being, I have added all my Google apps account to Gmail account which works OK, actually they work just right.
Are you adding Google Apps too?
Thanks for the answer, hope I can do that soon cause I got a locked bootloader.
Sent from my LT26i using xda premium
I don't think you are required to have unlocked bootloader to achieve this.
I meant the CM9 part not the gmail one. I got my accounts on gmail app too but I do like that the core mail shows notifications in the lockscreen.

I don't like it either but for time being is OK, Now with seeing Jelly Beans and more exciting feature, that is what I want I am about to buy a Nexus Galaxy and take Sony hardware out and put that phone's chip in there
Actually, I'm using my gmail account for purchasing of Apps only... and I always received notification (like yesterday, when I purchased "MyBackUp Pro")... this morning, I sent an email to my gmail account using my corporate and yahoo acounts (through Xperia S stock email)... just received and replied... and all of them are working normally...

get the semcemail.apk from xperia T files,
1. use root explorer or rom toolbox or any file manager with root access, delete the original semcemail.apk or rename it to semcemail.apk.bak (location /system/app)
2. copy and paste the xperia t semcemail.apk to /system/app.
3. change permission to rw-r--r--.
4. go to settings then look for email app then clear data.
5. open your email app then log again your data,
6. now you can choose the widget on homescreen.
look @ development section or general section, there's a thread for the xperia T files.
here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=31812779#post31812779
Just wanted to finally answer my own question. This is what I did and it worked.
Delete data on email app.
In Titanium backup, remove Email app and Exchange app
Restart
Go to this thread and download two files HERE
Change name (get rid of Google)
Move files to Memory
Move files to System folder
Change permission to RW-R-R
Move files to System/apps
Restart
and email app should fully function.

I am looking for a good email client for my phone and tablet. I have tried K9 and the Samsung clients but looking for something better. Anyone have some good ones?

I use Gmail. Always works for me.
Guess I should have added that this is for a non-gmail account. I do use gmail for my gmail account but I have a few other email accounts that I need a good client for.

I use touchdown by nitrodesk. My favorite and I've tried about 6. Moxier would be #2. though this is for exchange mail. so YMMV.

I vote Touchdown as well, but...................
Beware the sent emails that go missing completely (no success). Never fails to be a long and important message that disappears with no chance of recovering.
Also beware the included contacts app. Cannot create / nor edit a new exchange contact. Actually you can, but it will not sync with exchange.
There is a work around for this one.

I am a huge fan of AquaMail. It's so much better than MailDroid or K-9, the more "praised" mail apps. Try it out and I think you'll be happy.
Touchdown and Gmail here. Manage work contacts with touchdown and personal contacts via gmail. Keeps things nice and clean
I use MailDroid for my very finicky school email that doesn't work with a lot of other email apps. Never had a problem with it.
I see a lot of people recommending TouchDown, but I believe AquaMail to be superior to it. I've also tried MailDroid, K9 and they aren't as good as AquaMail.

How is gmail on aqua? Does it get pushed or do you have to have it sync at certain times to get mail?
Show Some Love
^^ IMAP Push works great in Aquamail for Gmail account.

deleted emails keep coming back.

AT&T Galaxy Note.
Deleted emails from one of my outlook.com accounts keep coming back.
I've read them, deleted them from phone and desktop but they keep coming back--not new ones either, the same 20 or so emails.
I have the same email on other devices but only on the note do they keep coming back.
Any suggestions?
thnx
Is there a setting for deleting the email off the server when you delete it from the phone?
The Outlook App uses POP and not IMAP. They do not get deleted from the server unless you are using IMAP. So when you delete them it is only locally and they download again when the device syncs. You will have to delete them on the server to stop them from appearing when the app sync's.

If that were so then Id have the same problem on all 3 devices as all 3 have that email account. only on the Note do they keep coming back after I delete them.
I use profimail and IMAP. There is an option to delete email on server when deleted on phone. It works just fine. This is not dependant on your phone/ROM.
The reason for your problems is not your Note.

Not quite. The issue comes in when it re-syncs. It grabs all of the mail and since it doesn't delete from the server cause it is POP and not IMAP, they download again. The other devices are not grabbing all mail, the note is. Change or settings to only get new mail and not all mail.
You will see that everything I have said about POP and iMAP are true when you read about how they operate via Google. The device is setup different.

You just said you use IMAP and delete the email from the server. You do not have the same issue cause you are not using the same setup. Yes it is the phone. Again POP does not delete email from the server and if the app is set to sync all mail from a certain time frame it will download the mail again.
Since you are using IMAP and deleting from the server you do not have this issue. Use the Outlook App which is POP, set it to sync all mail for the past 30 days and see if the results will be the same. Bet you will see deleted emails comes back.
So yes it is the device and the app used with how it is setup.
