I have not been able to sync my hotmail account to my dash all day today. Is anyone else having problems?
I am running Rickys WM 6.1, I use a gmail account and forward that to a hotmail account to take advantage of the push email with wm 6.1.
My gmail account is working fine, emails are getting forwarded to the hotmail account, and the gmail account syncs to the phone, but the hotmail account will not sync to the phone.
Anyone else having issues? any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Bryan

Yes I guess it has to be something related to hotmail, cause I was having the same problems as well.
Hotmail always seems to be having problems unfortunately. Been having troubles accessing it today and the past months. Its like a 50/50 shot it works for me.
If you are using 5.99plan can't use hotmail. for test try with router wi-fi , if can do for this way your problem is the plan .for me work with connections with more speed how wifi.
with 5.99 dont work
good luck

im actually using the blackberry service on a t-mobile dealer line for data, everything works fine data wise, hotmail has always worked in the past. The data connection for the phone is not the problem as internet works (im posting this from the phone) and gmail account works fine.
thanks though
Bryan
working now
I was not able to get the hotmail account working, i guess that their server is still down, but i was able to setup a new @live.com account. That account working and push email is working. Ill check the other account in a few days to see if it goes back to working.

Managed to upgrade my XDA Orbit to the original WM6 upgrade fine, was all running sweet. Had WLM set-up for my hotmail account. I wanted to use another hotmail for WLM so I decided to click on "Switch User"...... ehm now WLM is screwed. All my messenger contacts are gone from contacts, messenger will open but tries to sign in with no account?? It wont let me add another account, and I cannot set-up my hotmail for emails as it uses WLM to set it up. When I try to set it up for email, Windows Live just loads and never asks to set-up an account. I have tried reinstalling WLM but this just adds duplicate links and has the same issues?? LOL
Is there any way of "resetting" WLM (without having to hard reset my device?
Any help would be much appreciated
so I'm guessing nobody knows anything about this? Has anybody tired switching accounts to see if its just my software? Any response would be nice
Switching accounts works fine on mine. I am using the Touch-Flo ROM from on the site.
i just got an s621 and i added my gmail account to outlook but for some reason i can't see any of my emails..it connects to the server fine and it sends/receives with no problems but i cant see any of my mail it just stays blank!
i can see my hotmail messages just fine...
running wm6 btw
you have to activate pop in gmail. and there is a setting, that you only see mails from now on.
i would also take imap to connect to google because google is not sticking to the pop3 standard.
Helle guys!
I'm most likely going to buy Desire tomorrow. My HD2 changed the Lockcode automaticly today. And I'm so tired of the SMS bug and all that other things so I'm going to trash it.
My question is, can I synch Desire with my hotmail? I have everything over there, Calendar, Contacts, Mails, etc.
I love the way this function is intregrated in Leo.
Thanks for reading guys...
Yes, you can sync the desire with hotmail. I think server is pop3.live.com and smtp is smtp.live.com. I have set it up and works fine. I don't know if this is an EU only thing or USA as well..
Not too sure about anything more than the email. I have google calendar and contacts, which works best for obvious reasons..
Good luck

Hey!
Thank you dude!
I'm going to buy it then.
You can't really sync with Hotmail. The only thing you can do is receiving your emails trough pop3. You cannot sync your calendar or your contacts as there is no native hotmail or windows live app/integration for android.
What you could do is import your hotmail account into gmail and then sync your desire with gmail and you'll get your contacts and calendars and of course your e-mails. You can even send your e-mails from you gmail account with a different e-mail adress. After the import you can set your gmail account to query the pop3 hotmail server every 15 minutes to get your mails.
Did this for my girlfriend, so she can get all her mails from hotmail including contacts and calendar.

Well, I just bought this phone and are at home right now. I have heard about this before, I'm going to try it out
Hi all,
Since 2 days i got a strange problem with my hotmail account and push settings.
Everything sets up fine but when my hotmail is @ push it keeps syncing.
This drain my battery completely also it wont recieve any mail until i sync manual. Before it worked just perfect.
Also when i am on my computer @ msn and i receive a mail msn keaps saying one new mail but it's already read on the phone!
I treid an other hotmail account i created with my phone and push settings and the problem was gone! So it's in my account or something
now i got the following problem:
I can't set it up as exchange but only as pop.
If i try an other hotmail account it works just great with exchange.
Someone knows what this can be!?
Hey guys, Just flashed the newest update of incredibly re-engineered to my dinc, been using older versions of inc re-engineered for a while. But hotmail still doesn't wanna work. Yes I've tried all the different types of pop, and exchange settings, and now I give up on trying to make hotmail work with the stock mail app. SO, gmail works just fine, I loaded up my gmail account, set my hotmail to forward everything to my gmail account, then set my gmail account to send messages under my hotmail address.
Problem solved. A real ass-backwards way of making it work so that I can have the mail widget, but it works. Of course other apps from the market will connect to my hotmail account, and I have maildroid, and thats nice, but this was the only way I could get hotmail to somewhat work with stock mail.
I will say, sometimes hotmail would sort of sync with the automatic settings, but it would only sync 10 messages at a time, and it sync'd my oldest messages first. So thats useless. I'd have to set it to sync-all in order for that to happen. All the other settings like days and how many messages, didn't take any effect. Then again, google probably considers adding windows features to a google phone to be sodomy. I'm not that surprised hotmail doesn't wanna work on my dinc
So I guess this is more of a comment thread than a question since things are working. But if you encountered the hotmail problem with android 2.2, and overcame it, please share.
Did hotmail ever work when you were running stock?
Nah didn't work right then either.
