I am running SGS2 with custom ROM AOKP 7.1 ICS 4.0.4. The exchange email app does not populate email addresses that i have recently used or used at least once. I need to be able to simply type in the first few letters of the persons name and then click on the address that pops up from my previous emails, similar to what outlook does on a PC. Hope that makes sense.
Any help on this is appreciated. This is getting frustrating having to type addresses from scratch. Thank you guys.

It works on mine that way, but I am running ShoStock2 v3.1.2. Are your Exchange contacts syncing? My contact list is synced with the Exchange server contacts and it pulls anyone who is in my contact list when I start typing in the To field. Not sure if it will use recently received or sent email addresses or just the ones in your contacts.

I have never had contacts sync with my exchange account. When running stock rom if I sent an email to anyone they always popped up later as soon as I typed a few letters. Now with custom rom it won't work.

You're comparing apples and oranges, before you were running a Samsung rom and now you aren't

I realize that but a custom rom should be smart enough to remember recently used email addresses. I am trying to find a solution bc I really like AOKP rom and don't want to flash something else.

Its not the rom that's the problem. Its the email client

If it is a different rom with a different email client you shouldn't expect it to work exactly the same

You'd probably need to talk to the developers. Which would be google

So I just noticed that whenever I add a new contact its not being synced and added to my Google contacts .. whenever I added a contact on my nexus it automatically added it to Google contacts. How come it doesnt on the tbolt?

I am seeing the same thing... My droid always uploaded everything and now my Thunderbolt doesn't. The Apps don't go to the Cloud either. It says when I setup the google account that it's going to sync but I don't see it doing anything. I reformat nothing comes back....
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA App
Seems there's often a delay between the syncing of Google and my backup.
Sometimes when flashing roms ill get all my contacts at once other times it seems to take awhile.
Best option is to export your contacts to sdcard occasionally.

Well that's dumb. Does anyone have a solution?

I noticed this too. Not sure why this is happening. Maybe the GB build does not have the Google sync functionality working properly?

That kind of defeats the purpose of an android phone then.. its made so everything is synced with google regardless of which device you are using
Hm, im not using a GB build, im using perfect storm weird

I was having this issue as well, and read about it somewhere on here.
Google.com/contacts is your friend. Use it.
If you input a contact, via the phone, make sure you change it from a "phone" contact to a "Google" contact.
Problem solved. ;-)

Ah thanks, for some reason if you add a contact from another app it would default to the "phone" contact option with no option to change to google.

I really like the stock samsung email app. The only thing keeping me from using cm7 is that. I know k9 mail but that seems to kill.my battery and isn't true "push" email.
What are my options. Would the email apk from unnamed work on cm7? I doubt it.

there is a stock email client (not gmail) in cm7.1, which works well with my exchange email. it can do imap/pop3 email as well.
Yeah I'm totally aware of the other email app but u cannot set it to push. Only check for mail in different intervals

push works, if you mean the same app - which is the one under cm7.1

"enhanced email" in the market is pretty nice esp if you like stock. its enhanced stock. does push.
Well I figured out how to push gmail with the stock email app.
Add new account
Type username an password
Click manual setup
Click exchange
Username will be /username. Leave the slash
Put m.Google.com instead of gmail.com
Viola. Perfect working push gmail with the stock app.
Sent from my SGH-I777 using xda premium
So are you using exchange? I have had this problem as well with the stock email app. I do not use exchange. I have 2 email accounts one of which is Gmail and another that is Road Runner that forwards to my Gmail account. The Gmail app receives push email perfectly but the stock email app waits for its assigned frequency to check for mail.
Will your way of setting up the account work for me?
Thanks!

I am using 5 gmail accounts on the stock email app using the method I posted above for push mail. Yes it should work, not sure how to do your RR email but if u have that forwarded to a gmail theN your all set

Have you tried removing and entering it again? Also you need the Samsung apps installed.
I have removed ans installed several times. I even downloaded samsung apps and still nothing. My snotes from my note 10.1 wont sync to this phone unless the samsung account is syncing

I too would like to know how to get this working. I have two movies I bought on Media Hub back with my Droid charge and can't get the Samsung account to work unless either the apps are left in by the developer or it's stock. I'm running Jedi and have downloaded and installed and the only thing I get is a pop up message asking to update my Samsung account (of which it never does).

I cannot get activesync to work using the installed email app or the Touchdown app. I have set up phones numerous times so I don't think it's my settings. I did a google search and it looks like lots of people are having problems getting activesync to work on this phone....it may not be supported due to the device id? Help? Anyone have any info on this? Thank you.

I use Touchdown also for corporate email. I just got the S4 for 2 of us in the company and had no issue with ActiveSync working. I also tested the Android email client and had no issues on my devices.

I'm having the same issue. I was told by my IT that my S4 is not approved for activesync as they no longer approve individual phones. They told me I have to use touchdown. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.
I loved the way it was set up on my GNex.
Anyways I can get around this?

You might be able to fix it by going to your mail using webmaill, Options, Mobile Devices. Delete any device you are not using. If you flash ROM frequently and don't restore device id, it will create a new entry on exchange server.
Thanks all. Microsoft eventually sent a email with instructions on how to fix the problem.

So I have just gone to CM 10.1 and I really like it other than the fact that it won't add my contacts. I have them synced with my Google account but they won't sync onto CM. And I can't get backup assistant plus so how do I get my contacts?

To verify, are your Google services set to auto sync? When does it say your contacts were last synced?
Thanks for the reply. About time someone at least said something. Anyway I had figured it out earlier today. Yes they were synced but for some reason my phone was only syncing 1 of my contacts with Google. It said the others were on my phone and not Google. I guess I just assumed they were all on Google by default. So I merged my phone contacts with Google and it worked
