Emails & SMS Messages - Samsung Gear S

All,
Do I have to use the stock email and sms apps to view and respond emails and text messages? I'm currently using gosms and aqua mail. My e mail and sms folders are empty. Is there a workaround to this issue as I do not want to use the stock email and messaging apps to view/respond to messages on my S? Thanks in advance.
NOTE: If you are having issues with your email please include your provider, phone device, android verison, and which variant of GS you have.

Did you allow the watchphone to accept 3rd party apps so you can make them default?

Negative. I didn't see an option for that. Can you please tell me where to find it?

I HAVE NOT opened mine yet but Tizen is on both gears.. But on the gear 2 under settings about gear it has USB debugging checkmark that box. On phone make sure Unknown Sources are checked. If I am wrong someone please tell them the correct information

Thanks! Both options are checked. However, I cannot figure out how to receive emails in the email app. I've swiped in every direction & pressed/hold the center but it won't give me an option to add email addresses. Perhaps, I missed a step during start up.

Maybe you can erase all data and try to again to signup for your email . Anyone else successfully set up email? Have you add email under samsung gear manager my apps email then click the gear icon and add your email client?

I have set up the GS to sync with both the Outlook and Yahoo accounts using the stock phone email app. They seemed to be working at first but I am no longer receiving email notifications for new emails. Not sure what is up?

My emails are also not available over the stock email - but I do receive them via aqua mail - so what must I do in order to set up the email for the stock email app - when I add a new email account it is only on my note 4 but not on the gear ???

Did you add the e mail accts to your gear manager on your phone? If so, make sure they are checked. You won't receive old emails only new emails that come in your inbox.

Try this, under settings about gear it has USB debugging checkmark that box. On phone make sure Unknown Sources are checked. Make sure both accounts are checked in gear manager and restart the watch. Send a test email and see if that works. If not, the only thing I did differently was restore the watch and check the settings above.
Last note, you don't have to make any changes to aqua mail as it's not the issue. I'm not sure about Evernote. Good luck!

THIS

It was weird. I had to send myself an email and force the new notification to come to my Gear S. Only then could I use email on the watch for more than just viewing a new notification--i.e., I could reply.
I do wish it synced up my last 20 or so emails on my Note in my Email app ...
Also, what's with not being able to compose an email within the little Email app?! I can compose an email through a contact, but not through the Email app. The Messages app allows composing a new message by touching the three dots. Those three dots aren't in the Email app.

Sigh, I reset, even replaced the watch today at ATT. I receive emails but there is no way to reply only view. I can only reply to text messages. I running nine, Gmail and samsung email.

I have that for the message app. I returned the watch for a replacement today and same thing. Three different apps? One being the Samsung app. USB debug is checked and unknown sources on my note 3. I am going crazy. Samsung techs support says it doesn't n it support email replies. Lol that made chuckle

Other people have tried different email clients CloudMagic is on there are some others on the forum
You said you added the emails in gear manager under notifications and click the settins gear icon and added your emails there?
My Gmail tells me to look on the phone to respond and it has the 3 dots.

Yep and I can only view. There is no orange reply button. Two watches cannot be bad.

Adding birthdays to contacts

Hi there,
I have got a problem, which I don't know how to solve: I just wanted to add a birthday to a contact already saved on my Galaxy S2. So I entered the contact, clicked "edit" - but then, no field for the birthday!? Wtf?
In addition, when I open the contact, TW does not show me the birthday either (for contacts from exchange which do have a birthday added)...
So, this can't be true, can it? Where can I add and see the birthdays of my contacts?
Thanks!
Edit: It seems that I cannot add a birthday to contacts that are connected, which means, which come from my exchange server - can that be?
Because when I add a new contact and choose "Save on phone" I can add a birthday, but when I choose a new contact "Exchange" I cannot add a birthday... But my Exchange Software
can save birthdays, it did so with my HD2 on Android. Any ideas?
No idea? No one?

That's nice. However, I wanted to add a birthday to one of my contacts when I was attending a meeting - I neither had Outlook nor MyPhoneExplorer with me. So, there should be a way to complete existing contacts, shouldn't it?
Try to add the birthdaydate via google and sync afther.

Yes, it is more than disappointing.
And no, we don't want to sync our data with google servers for good reasons. Thats why I have my own Exchange and thats what I want the Galaxy S2 to do, nothing more, nothing less.
Guys - I just try to help you out. I came from Lotus Notes and got about 240 contacts in my adressbook. I tried several ways to get them in sync via android. What worked for me was to make a simpel csv-file with all my contacts and import it into my google account. Next step i sync via my phone with my googleacc. This worked. Then I sync with exchange - and now all my fields is visible - and edible. I think - that the phone just work best and smooth with a clean new contactfile. Afther i have no problem.
All systems I have worked with during the years, often got problems when the adressbook not is native.

Thanks for trying to help. But it cannot be that you have to give all your data to Google in order to get things to work properly although you have your own exchange server.
Just delete the contacts in google afther you sync.
By the way - if you worry about security - what you do on a exchange server LOL

Glad to see its not just me, very annoying though. Samsumgs exchange active sync implementation seems to be far from perfect.
Once a week my calendar/e-mail goes rogue and starts up using alot of battery, a reboot fixes this.
I hope this contact problem gets fixed pretty soon, alot of the extra info is missing not just birthdays
I use aTAKEphONE as a dialer application, this lets you add a birthday date and gives many more options...

We can not discuss about this as I am not the decision maker in my company but of course can suggest to move away from Exchange what they won't do for 100%.
All my previous companies were running Exchange by the way and it's not a point to talk about now.
I've done now what you suggested and imported my Exchange contacts to GoogleMail, deleted and unmarked for sync all contacts and accounts on my Samsungs Galaxy S2.
Resynced now first with GoogleMail only and then added the Exchange account for sync.
I can confirm that I get the birthday field now under the contacts.
Whyever the phone only shows the GoogleMail contacts with Icon and not any other (Active Sync, Skype, Facebook SNS) contacts anymore...
I am confused why they dont show up anymore...
Ahhh now I see... as I deleted my contacts from the phone it also wiped the Exchange contacts... great
OK... it's the same... only the imported contacts from GoggleMail have the birthday field.
When I create a new contact on my phone which is by default saved Exchange then I don't get this option to add a birthday... useless...
I have just received a message from Samsung concerning this problem. They say, they cannot promise that it will be fixed.
Oh, thats very nice. Thank you, very much. Once and never again.

If you would like to add a birthday to a contact, you need to:
Select the relevant contact
Select Edit
Select “Add another field”
Select “Events”
Then add the birthday

[Q] Email - words split to next line

I've searched to no avail.... I'm running stock and using the included email app. Some (not all) email comes through with words split between lines like this:
I have gone to see my fri
end and when I arrived sh
wasn't there so I then tri
ed to.... blah blah
It doesn't happen with all email. I found a setting in the browser to fix word wrap but can find nothing to fix email.
Thanks for any assistance. B
out of curiosity, have you noticed this happening with one or two people in particular? I'm thinking that it might be the way they send the email, not the way your phone displays it.
reason is - I notice that same problem once in a while on my corporate email setup on outlook. Turned out it was a problem on the sender's end. not sure the details, though.

Good point. I just got the phone and I haven't read many emails yet but will keep that in mind. One in particular that I remember was from an iPad owner and another was from a library. I didn't that problem with my last phone (WinMo)
I have one email from a public library to my gmail account. If I look at it with the GMail app on the GS2, it is fine but if I look at it on the GS2 email app, it has the split word problem.
i'm not really sure what would cause that. Have you tried to clear the cache on the gs2 email app?
I've gotten only about 12 emails since firing up the phone. I don't know how to clear the cache.
settings > applications > manage applications > "all" tab (up top) > find the email app that you're using. You'll see the button in there.
ok - thanks for directions. I cleared my cache and we'll see what happens
this is happening to me as well... stock email app hooked up to exchange. emails look fine in outlook as well as on the exchange server, but they appear fragmented (both portrait and landscape) in the email app... clearing cache does not do anything. this is all emails from all senders.
anybody know anything about this?
I know on my old Captivate, if you select anything other than the default font in email client, you will get this problem. But the new email client on GS2 doesn't have any way to select a different font.
Also, from the screen shots above, try tap the button "load more details" and see if it changes.
"load more details" just loads the entire email thread, instead of just the portion in view.
Nope. It tries to load the email as HTML mail if your current exchange server reports as Exchange 2003. This typically works well for Hotmail.
I don't see "load more details" anywhere. Perhaps this is only for exchange email?

you're right... and this does fix it, but now i'm curious on how to "force" this action from the get go...
in your exchange server settings, you can select the settings for how much of each email you sync, how far back your calenda sycsr, tasks (for 2k8 and above), etc...
under emails, select the size to retrive emails to ALL, that should download all of the email, and not show you the prompt to "load more details"
---------- Post added at 10:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:02 PM ----------
fwiw, when you only download part of an email, its downloaded in "plain text" mode.. when you download all of an email, either by default, or by clicking the "load more details" link. you download the html version of the email if your server supports html mail.
Not necessary always the case. With Exchange 2003 protocol, HTML email is not supported. So the server will only push down plain text portion of the email. Some mail servers like Hotmail are known to push as Exchange 2003 protocol only but can actually send out HTML email as well if you ask. So the 'Load more detail' button will ignore the protocol restriction and ask server for full HTML email anyway.

best email app?

Whats the best email app out there? I am not a fan of the stock email app because it always opens my email zoomed in which I find annoying. Gmail is ok, but I have other non gmail address's I need to check.
Thanks.

Enhanced E-mail $10 if you want a really good one

K9 is good and it's free, https://market.android.com/details?...result#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDEsImNvbS5mc2NrLms5Il0. But I agree that Enhanced is good as well.
On stock app, how are you getting it to open to your mail? mine opens to the account screen.

No much difference btween stock and Enhanced email. They both suck to handle folders. Also EE have less of sync schedules compare to stock
If you need an exchange email. I recommend Moxie Mail. Show folders in order + show new email indicators at the corners.

And the stock Touchwiz e-mail app won't delete e-mails from any of my IMAP servers. EE does it flawlessly. I just wish the UI was a little cleaner and professional. Some of the graphics are blurry and the oval "processing" icon isn't sized correctly, so it gets cropped on the sides when rotating.

I just uninstall EE yesterday. I guess you don't have exchange mail to use.
First, EE don't show Exchange SUB-folder in order also you have no way to know the sub-folders got new email or not unless you click to open that sub-folder(just like stock email). Enlightened me how please?
Second, EE sync have exacly sync schedule as stock BUT don't even have OFF-PEAK schedule (days) like stock. Show me where to use OFF PEAK schedule in EE too please?

It's the graphics, not text formatting. It looks fine on devices with a smaller display, but because it's enlarged on the Note it makes the bitmap graphics blurry. Changing the formatting options did nothing for me but change the way the text looks. It's not that bad, I'll deal with it. I'm just glad I can delete my e-mails, lol.

ok I guess we use email 2 totally different ways. Considering I am the Manager over Network Operations and also the exchange server administrator over the corporation yeah I would think I do use exchange email.
You are correct on both accounts you dont get email alerts for sub-folders and cant set peak and off peak times but it does give you more scheduling options outside of that than the stock email app.
I usually dont put anything important in subfolders under my email box and allow my outlook client to sort into PST files when I launch my outlook client. This keeps the size of my exchange account smaller and its to me a pain in the ass to figure out which folder I am getting alerted on so it really dont matter to me about sub-folder email alerts. If I want to see if a particular email has been received I usually just go to that folder and look for it.
As for the peak non peak times I am not even interested in getting that granular with the schedules in the least as I need my emails about the same whether its 10pm or 10am my job doesnt dictate when I dont need emails as regular.
my comment to you wasnt to start a pissing match with you btw.
All I want to know is, HOW CAN I OPEN THE STOCK EMAIL APP SHOWING THE ACTUAL EMAILS versus the account screen first?

Sorry for being a crazy nut. I wasn't start any pissing match at all . I was disappointed with EE because i spend 10 bucks and it's just the same as stock (in my oppinion). For my Exchange email, a have lots of sub folder category that needed for my work and those need to show me if I get new emails. Also for sync schedule i just see 15m, 30m 1h, 4h... in EE exactly same as stock with no peak hours and selected day(I don't want to have push emails when i'm home (4 hours sync maybe). So Moxie Mail solve my problem: show sub-folder in correct order and sync/show my new mail in sub folder.

Hey there, I'm the developer of Enhanced Email and long time XDA member/contributor. Regarding your sub-folder issue, it sounds like you don't know how to enable sync on sub-folders from my app. You just long-press on any sub-folder and select "Toggle sync" from the context menu that appears. You'll begin receiving notifications for those folders now when new mail arrives.
Regarding the "folder hierarchy" issue, that is in the works. Technically, if you set up an IMAP account the folder hierarchy shows just fine. It only shows the list of folders flat for Exchange accounts due to Exchange not providing the tiered name in the folder properties like IMAP does. You have to actually create the tiered name by matching folder IDs to their names and following parent IDs till you reach the root folder. It's a mess but like I said it's in the works.

Regarding the "folder hierarchy" issue, that is in the works. Technically, if you set up an IMAP account the folder hierarchy shows just fine. It only shows the list of folders flat for Exchange accounts due to Exchange not providing the tiered name in the folder properties like IMAP does. You have to actually create the tiered name by matching folder IDs to their names and following parent IDs till you reach the root folder. It's a mess but like I said it's in the works.

I believe it's called Moxier Mail, not Moxie. Just trying to make it easy for folks to find it. Not picking.

[Q] Which mail app can swipe a message from notification panel to mark it as read ?

Hi,
I am searching for a good mail app.
I am receiving many emails from different accounts (approx 6 different accounts) and I would like to have a way to read the emails from the notification panel and mark them as "read" or "delete".
And, in the mail app, the best will be with a consolidated view for unread messages.
I don't want an application that "proxifies" our data (man in the middle; and they have the password of our mailbox).
Which mail app do you use ?
Thank you

Thank you for your answer.
Cloudmagic is quite expensive if I have more than 3 mail accounts; moreover my emails wil be stored on their server -/)
Mail Wise seems nice but not available in Play store for my country. I tried to use MarketEnabler to specify a [US] T Mobile value but stil doesnt work.
If you have any other idea or good app, let met know.
Thank you
K-9 is probably one of the most popular mail apps and it has options for mark read and delete in the notification panel.

I agree, although there are problems with some devices using it, as I experienced. If you also have problems try [email protected] made by the same devs I believe.

Me too agree! Also K9 is open source. You can downloaded from F-Droid market and with APG app you can firm o encrypt your e-mail message.
Also the default mail, which come with android gapp, can mark as read from the notification bar. It depends on your rom version.

Not getting Gmail notifications.

I'm having an issue with not getting Gmail notifications. I've set all permissions to allow notifications, turned off power saving modes and locked Gmail in the background.
But after all this, I still get no indication of a new email until I actually open Gmail.
Can anyone help?
It's only Gmail that I'm having this issue with, which is also confusing me.
Thanks.
Thats odd. My gmail is working fine with notifications. But gmail has a bunch of its own settings for notifications also. Did you make sure to enable them in the gmail app settings itself? Not where it takes you to the settings on the phone but within the app. I dont have to lock gmail in the backround for it to work either. Make sure that it is also taken off the app quick freeze list in battery settings. in the gmail settings on the phone settings itself after you allow notifications you also have to go into the email account listed there and allow notifications for that email account. Just enabling notifications for the gmail app itself wont notify you of emails.
Yeah, I've gone into the accounts listed and enabled notifications in there as well as the settings within the app itself.
If I go into settings>battery>custom power consumption Protection , Gmail isn't on the list of apps. I don't know why?
So I'm at a bit of a loss now why they aren't coming through as everything seems to be set up correctly.

Just out of interest, are you on the international version? I am so just checking we're on the same hardware/software combo.

In Battery>App quick freeze make sure gmail isnt toggled on.
In Battery>Smart Power Saver >Toggle Off
In Battery>Super High Power Efficiency> Toggle Off
In Gmail itself. Make sure you havent set emails to only notify you of priority inbox. I had that problem before as gmail will pop up from time to time to as you to turn on that setting. If you arent paying attention and just click ok like I did once it will drive you crazy.

Actually, No. Im on the Chinese ROM which is actually more restrictive. Ive actually gotten everything to work. Notifications, Backround processes, etc. The only problem I have is I cant get Location History in Google Maps to enable so Timeline doesnt work. And I cant seem to add my Visa cards in google wallet for some reason.
