Does the stock email app support push? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
Does the stock email app support push? I use gmail however prefare the samsung email app becuse of zooming and copy text support.
If no, is there a way to feature like push without having to check for regually for emails?
There isnt even a method to check once opening the app.
Any sort of will be gratefull.
Thanks
Sorry to make things clear. Does the samsung email app support push using a gmail account.

Yes... Well.. Indirectly.. With Gmail you can setup mail fowarding from any other email account. On your PC have a look in your Gmail account settings for fowarding.. Gmail will pull your standard pop3 email for you and then push it to your phone... Easy.. Just let gmail gather your email from various acounts...
Edit. Just read again .. You would prefer the samsung app... Not sure then...

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.

If you are using Hotmail and not Gmail on your google- powered phone you're doing it wrong.

just configure gmail (on the webpage) to retrieve hotmail and be done with it.

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.

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?

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
Any luck Nimche? Have tried the Deutch ROM but still the same problem.

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...

Has anyone figure this out yet? I hate to use the Gmail app for regular email. This seems to be more like Sony's app issue.

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:

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.

Email client

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.

Have all your other accounts push to Gmail and sort with auto filters?

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.
Aquamail.

How is gmail on aqua? Does it get pushed or do you have to have it sync at certain times to get mail?

SGSII 4.1.2 JB Problem with YAHOO push mail in default email client.

Hello everyone.
So I updated to JB 4.1.2. and it seemes I cannot use push mail with Yahoo using the default email client, all I can do is just use the peak off, on minimum 5min interval. It seems only gmail is the client that can push.
Is there any way to get push using yahoo ?
Please help.
Phone data is below in image.
Pleae help.
Thanks in advance.
Good day y'all.

If you are using the regular yahoo mail service, then no. It doesn't support push mail, probably due to lack of exchange support.
Yahoo Mail Plus does support as it is a paid service.
Gmail gives this free of cost.
This worked in 4.0.3..
And yes.. i.m talking about the regular yahoo mail and defaupt email app..

Email App issues :(

Email App issues
Whenever i delete a email it doesnt seem to actually delete them as when i go onto my PC there all there :S
is there a way to fix this issue?
also i have noticed theres no option to sync emails using email check frequency as theres no "Auto" option only manual and mins there after
i wish there was a way to get the stock android email app
does anyone have any ideas?
thanks in advance as always
Well, does the email service you're using use IMAP or POP3? If you don't know what these are, then Google it. It'll take you 30 seconds.

Check incoming settings for the account. If it's imap, then there's no option to delete from the server, if it's pop3 then you have the option to delete from server when deleting on device.
AFAIK outlook is only imap these days. But hunt for pop3 settings with Google, there may be a work around.
