Does anyone know of any app that logs automatically entire sms' content to google calendar in ICS?
SMS2CAL does not support ICS and the coder is not interested in supporting it or adapting it for it to work wit ICS.
CallTrack does a perfect job logging calls, however it fails to log sms.
Any ideas please??
SMS to Calendar
Hello,
there used to be a superb app, Log2Calendar. Sadly, this is now retired from the market.
Here is the APK that I backed up long ago; I install it on all my androids manually (it actually then prompts a market upgrade on some).
I actually use both CallTrack and Log2Calendar: CallTrack logs to a specific Call-Log calendar created on gmail, Log2Calendar logs sms only to a specific sms-log calendar
There is a Call 2 Calendar but it only shows one calendar in the list, so I did not try it.
Also evaluate SMS backup+
It transforms sms into emails (and if contact has an email address you can reply to that email and will send to that email) and uploads them to gmail in a specific SMS label. It also deals call logs if you use the google procedure to authorize emails.
IMAP upload / emails are much more efficient while researching. Plus you get conversation view, unavailable in the calendar
Cheers!

Hey Guys
I have a big problem... with android 2.1 i expected to have native exchange support and eventually Moxier in parallel.
i use Hotmail with Active sync as my main central for all contact, email and kalender sync.
the problems with moxier are:
- contact editing only in Moxier contacts and not the social phonebook
- low res contact pictures
- no external programs have access on my calendar
- no email widget
- no emails listed in timescape and contact card
so my question: is it possible to reactiveate the integrated EAS feature of android 2.1 and if yes, will the data be visible in timescape or at least in the Mail and calendar application and contact cards?
nobody with a solution??
I haven't tried the following solution but you can give it a shot if you want. You have to be rooted.

no that doesnt work....
i can use exchange with this but emails are still not shown in timescape/contacts and contact sync also doesn't work if i check it.....
other solutions? is there a source code of the SE Mail APP apk somebody could work with??
Push it...
Can anyone help?
Push it on top
Please as title states, which email app do you guys prefer, on the sg2, and why please. I want to be able to use gmail, so jus want to findout what you guys are using, to receive or send your gmail emails. I also want the option to schedule the sync, so your input very much required.
I use the stock Gmail app for my gmail. gmail isn't my primary account so not bothered by any failings, etc.
I use K9 for my main non-gmail personal account. Am very happy with it, can schedule timings and specify a quiet time, when I don't want to be distured by email notifications (i.e. when I'm asleep).

I use gmail and have set it (via the web app) to collect hotmail and another pop3 account, so it's perfect for me as I have all emails in 1 app, and I do like the gmail app!
K9 Mail Sync settings.

Apologies for the delayed reply.
I think it's as follows:
Menu --> More --> Settings --> Account Settings --> Fetching Mail:
"Folder Poll Frequency".
Also under the above and within --> Advanced:
"Refresh IDLE connection".
I "think" that's what you're after... to be honest mine has always just worked.
Hope it helps!
i like samsung's email app. Only thing i cant figure out is how to put it to push.
I tried the Samsung E-Mail app but it really pissed me off more and more. You can hardly make any settings, just specify how many mails to load (timeframe) and how often to update, that's about it. the funtionality and look are standard.
I switched to K9 mail again and instantly remembered why I always came back to that app. Not only does my Push work flawlessly for both accounts (one business, one private that collects) without any "premium" account hassle making use of that annoying social hub, but I can specify all sorts of settings like how much data to transfer by default per mail, to load images, and many many more.

to make push work you have to set your mail account as an imap account. to do so you need to make it a premium account which leads you to samsung collecting your mails via the social hub ... I'd recommend k9 mail. looks the same, and you can make almost any necessary setting.
The stock Gmail app does everything I could ask for
I switched to EnhancedEmail when I used to have a DHD as the stock email client didn't sync contacts and calendars probably.
Enhanced did all the syncing perfectly, however, it just did not allow Exchange accout contacts to be created or added (i dont really know if the stock email client had the same problem or not).
With the SGS2, i used EnhancedEmail first, but recently switched to the stock samsung email client - it seems to work flawlessly, albeit, with the limitations to customisations stated by others. I use Exchange (both my my company email and hotmail) on Push, and at that, it is good enough for my usage.

Plus the stock mail app draines more battery then k9 due to being more active or active in the wrong way I don't know, but there is a big difference, at least on my phone.
I'm using ICS 4.0.3 and new to Android.
I have several email accounts Yahoo / Hotmail / Cablevsion / etc.
When setting up email accounts on my phone, is it best to setup a new email account for each of the above,
or is it better to setup Gmail to read them all and only view and send email through Gmail?

There is no "better" way to do this - you've got to do what suits you.
I do personally prefer to have all my emails picked up by Gmail though. I just find it easier having Gmail open on my PC for everything, getting all my emails effectively through one account. With incoming mail rules I can filter them to individual folders (labels), and even have notifications based on individual folders as well. For example, I don't get notifications for my work emails, but I can access them via Gmail. I do get notifications of all xda PMs and emails though.
That's just my preference though.

Archer,
Thanks for that reply. I was just wondering if best to have several icons on my device for each email account or if its best to let
Gmail do the work? I was looking for info from a users POV and appreciate your details.
So I guess you have no problem keeping track of sending and receiving from the various accounts, all through Gmail?
The labels (folders) are just on your desktop, or on both your mobile & desktop?
I'm using default GMail linked to Android Google account as only mail in phone. Problem is, that Sense+ designer probably missed, that someone actualy use GMail instead of internal Mail and here comes problem.
Lockscreen productivity tab - mail and calendar shows only calendar, because (I assume) it expects mails in Mail app. And because I use GMail, there are none.
Camera app share function offers by default Mail to send a picture, GMail option is cleverly hidden under More. And you cant rearrange it, so you have to make one more click and scroll to GMail option.
And probably more, just getting used to work with phone and still didnt explore everything. Am I missing some settings where I can choose default mail app representing Mail option in different programs, or GMail works like completely separate app and it has to be supported directly?
Did you download a Gmail app and that is what you are using? I would think in the general mail app that comes installed with the phone you can add a gmail account to it and it would then link to all functions of the phone. Not sure of your question? Are you using a 3rd party app download for your mail and expecting it to work with all the stock mail functions of the phone?
No when you setup your phone first time then you have to link it at least to google (gmail) account. And this account uses preinstalled gmail app instead default mail. If i wanted to use default mail app, then i would have to add my gmail acc manually, resulting in two apps syncyng same mails (you cant selectively disable gmail sync from google account).
Maybe im missing something as relativelly new android user or it looks like that system is set to use by default gmail app for google account defined mail and ignores system mail app, resulting in problems in (and not only) sense apps.

I'm picking this device up as it's announced Friday to be released here in the US on ATT. Until then, can't help much.
What i would try is hard reset phone, on intial setup do not sync with gmail as it asks, then once phone is set up open the default mail app, manually add your gmail account, now see if you get the home/lockscreen notifications you are looking for. If anything it would be a jellybean 4.1 or sense 4+ issue, doubt it's the actually hardware phone issue. Still though, you would think if you enter your gmail info from the set up prompt that it would sync with the gmail and stock mail app and work with all notifications? Would be dumb not to????
Hopefully can get some clarification on this before friday, if not then guess i'll find out myself.
By default if you fill in Google account during setup it links this mail to GMail app, which is hardcoded in system (cant uninstall, just disable). And it is not the same as default Mail app, which is of course worse than GMail so I would like to keep using GMail. But HTC uses more default Mail in its Sense UI as I mentioned, lockscreen notification (productivity screen) is hardcoded to Mail app only (tested) and Camera is offering Mail in first list for sending picture...

Wow well this sounds very stupid of HTC or whoever made this setup!!! Maybe someone can help us out then and figure a way for Sense and all the notification programs to use the Gmail app as well as the Yahoo or any other hard coded mail app upon intial setup! I know i'll then be in the same boat as you when i pick up my HOX+ from ATT this friday as i use yahoo, gmail, and outlook for work literally all day long! My work is basically through email when i'm not there so to have no or messed up email notifications on when they arrive, i'll be very upset about this!
Maybe a jellybean 4.1 or sense 4+ bug???
Hi. I seem to have a more protracted problem with push notifications on my phone.
I use more apps (Twitter client, Tapatalk, Avast Anti-theft client, Notepad push agent, and some others) that claim to support push events. But if I send test push event to any of them, nothing happens. Either the event is not triggered at all until I invoke manual sync in that app, or the event arrives with considerable delay (hours or so). The only app that seems receive push events promptly is [email protected] mail.
However all of the nonworking apps look paired with their service online account or to Google account properly (some of them I have Greenified but Greenify shows that they could be awaken from hibernation using the experimental feature) - even apps that aren't greenified (Tapatalk, NEPush) don't notice new events.
Further, when I tried send test command to Avast Antitheft, the web UI said something about Google Cloud Messaging error (may be related to the problem).
Also phone seems to be logged in to Google account properly, sync with GMail is enablled..Global synchronizations in background are ON, Background data are ON ad of course mobile data are ON too.
Google Services Framework is version 4.0.4-430453
Google Play Services is ver 4.2.42
Google Account Manager is ver 4.0.4-430453
all are enabled
I have frozen Google Calendar Sync, Gogle Contacts Sync, Google Mail and Google Search but I assume these don't affect PUSH receiving.
I use rooted phone with custom kernel, UBL and stock firmware if it matters but I suppose it's not affecting my issue.
Any advices that could help bypass this annoying malfunction would be appreciated!
