Everytime I open an email with images the only thing that shows are the X's to where the images are. How do I make the images show when I open an email. I want to read it the way I would see it on the PC.
My BB 8900 showed the images as long as I clicked on show images. High Tech Computer phone should be having these problems.
I think It's bacause pocket oulook doesn't support HTML. IMHO
Even if I'm using GMail and AIM mail?

Huh? POutlook supports HTML just fine!
I had the very same problem a while back on my TYTNII, I got round it by installing Schap's Advanced Config and setting the Proxy Auto Detection from disabled to enabled under Internet Explorer settings.
Schap's Advanced Config can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=418151
I downloaded it and did what you said. I even did a soft reset and I re opened my email and the images still don't show.

Did you retry downloading the images in POutlook? Does Internet Explorer work OK? I found that Internet Explorer wouldn't download images corretly when POutlook wasn't working... That's how I found they were linked.
Daft question - you have got POutlook settings set up for HTML and to actually download the message and not just the header haven't you??
I have no idea what you are talking about. All I did was set up my Gmail and Aim email on the device. No images are showing in either accounts. I never set up an POutlook or whatever that is.
Do you get an image placeholder [x] where the image should be? Do you also get a notification bar at the top of this message?

Mesquire,
Yes that's exactly what I see when I open up my emails.
Are you able to click on "Internet pictures blocked" to download the images for your email?
Never tried actually, but what if I can and what if I can't?
If you can: the behaviour is by design
This is similar to Microsoft Outlook/Outlook Express/Vista's Windows Mail/Windows Live Mail - images embedded into a HTML email are blocked initially.
So how do I get it to work correctly? Is your HTML blocked?
Anyone else HTML blocked?
Just tested using Gmail's IMAP access. Embedded images are blocked, as usual, with [x]. Click on "Internet pictures blocked" and images are downloaded to show the HTML email in all its glory.
Yeah I just checked and it's all good now. Thanks!

So here's a new topic i am gonna be making shortly.
We r gonna use Pocket IE to edit Mortscript variables.
This will allow us to skin the choice statement, etc. Because we r running IE in kiosk/full screen mode we have 100% of the screen real estate.

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
(Would look nicer with some graphics...)
This means we can use all the html form commands as mortscript variable selectors. Text Input, Round and square check boxes, pull down menus. Not to mention javascript form processing.
Enclosed is a working example.
Next update should include the javascript url interpreter to "hint"/fill the html form statements. I will of course find out how many variables we can work with on the url line.
Let me know if this does not work for u.
What u will see:
Run it, then IE will open and hopefully open full screen
then u will see a page asking for a text box and radios. fill em and click submit. It will go to a new page and then pop up with the url/form data.
If anybody wants to proceed further i have a much further developed code. IExplorer is easy to work with. I am just working on the Opera version.

Javascript to make the magic happen

The easy to do: IExplorer is a pushover
IExplorer works no holds barred.
url is in the title. ? and & passed arguments show in the title.
Passing ? and & to a static web page works just fine
The not so easy: Opera is ok
Opera 8.65 and Opera 10 hopefully function similarly.
Full screen mode is great. Is there a shortcut to open the browser full screen? there very well may be.
Opera will not show the url in the title, BUT we can set the page title to be the URL and tada.
Now passing URL to a static page is turning out to be a like a bull fight.
How to pass the variable data in and out?
Third browser set?
Third browser set?
We might as well look out for additional browsers. Some may function perfectly right out of the box as long as we check.

And btw.
I had thought for a moment that IE was not installed on certain ROMs.
I did decide not to bother with the other browser types... no reason.
The misses has just received here DHD and found that the standard HTC People manager only shows the address in a small scrollable field and it's really awkward to see the full address at a glance.
Does anyone have any ideas how to make the address easily visible?
Or an alternative contact manager app?
I'll post screen shots later if it'll help.
I had a quick surf earlier and couldn't find any info that was helpful...
So we can view a complete contract address, does anyone know how to get the standard Contact viewer to replace HTC's?
HTC Contact Address is truncated on a single line e.g.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Android Contact Address is shown over several lines e.g.
Excuse the pic's, they're for illustration purposes only.
I had the same problem with my last phone - a Nokia E71. You had to hit 'edit' to view the address in a seperate window. A pain in the posterior! And, like you, I've noticed that the HTC People app does the same thing. So you can either a) use the 'edit' mode or b) tap the address, it comes up on Google maps, tap the flag and then the full address pops up. Doh ....
Thing is, with the more basic Nokias, and I've just checked with the wife's 2730 Classic, you can use the 'View' option to look at the complete address. If the address was so long it wouldn't fit on one screen then you just scroll down. Simples! Now, how can Android do the same?
Dave
Same problem with birthday... Can't see the year until you edit it, annoying
OK. Been looking into this as I was getting a bit hacked off with it. Something so basic .... Anyhow, downloaded 'AddressBook for Android 2' and at first it looked quite good but soon noticed it had no 'comapny' field ... But you could view the complete address in a single window.
Then tried Youlu. Now this seems to meet all my needs (at present anyway!). It gives all the same info as the 'people' app but when you choose the address you get ..... the full postal address!!!! Only then, if you tap the address you get Google maps showing where it is.
HTH
Dave
Thanks for the suggestions, although I don't see many favourable reviews for Youlu - how have you found it?
I sent this issue to HTC a few weeks back. Maybe if more of us do the same they may consider addressing it (if you'll pardon the pun) in a future update.
I'm getting a little fed-up with having to consider using 3rd party apps to replace basic functionality. I'm using Handcent because Sense SMS is broken, the Sense calendar is full of holes and doesn't include tasks, so I'm looking for a replacement... And contacts (which is otherwise ok) doesn't show complete addresses!
Found this little tutorial and works wonders. I like having direct access to images/video taken from my devices, even if I can't access my email. Also Dropbox has that new "instant" feature they just rolled out, so give this a try http://www.reddit.com/r/Android/comments/viri8/cerberus_to_dropbox/
Visit www.sendtodropbox.com and connect your Dropbox account, then you will be given a unique email address [email protected], save the email address.

Make sure you have these settings setup for the next step
Head to gmail and go to settings….forwarding and POP/IMAP…click on add forwarding address….use the email you were provided with earlier from www.sendtodropbox.com
In your Dropbox account you will have a plain text attachment with your conformation code to activate the forwarding of email.
Now head over to filters and create a new filter
The label setting is optional, but make sure you have the "forward it to" checked and select the email address you added earlier
Your filter should look like this
Finally head back to www.sendtodropbox.com and save these settings, you can arrange the "attributes" and "save to" as you please…hit save settings
Now head over to www.cerberusapp.com and test that it works, I just did send test message and upon dismiss it takes a pictures, then my Dropbox syncs the image.
Also Cerberus has a new beta https://www.cerberusapp.com/Cerberus_2.3beta.apk
adds these features:
Stealthy photo/video capture
There is a new "Transparent" option for the "Screen color" setting in the app configuration. When it's selected, if you send a "Take picture" or "Capture video" command from the web dashboard, checking the "Take picture/capture video immediately" option, you should not see anything on the device while Cerberus captures the photo/video.
SMS command to enable data roaming
The syntax is "cerberus yourpassword enableroaming", it should work only if Cerberus is integrated into the ROM.
Put call on speakerphone
When you open the test dashboard (link below), you'll see a new "Put on speakerphone" option in the "Call phone" command. Checking that option should make Cerberus enable the speakerphone and make the call. This could be useful to draw attention on the device if you lose it, other than the the alarm siren.

Though the SMS/Call function is best for smartphone, the stealth photo capture is cool

Three are lots of good alternative email apps. A few to look at are Cloud Magic, TypeMail, and Mailwise. I. Have tried all three of these with my corporate Exchange account and they work fine.

thanks, i reached out to them.
figured it out, it's because of 2 step authentication. since asus is not using the "new" login method for Microsoft, it doesn't try at all to attempt 2 step authentication so it fails. disable 2 step in security and app works now. add 2 step back and app still works.
Until yesterday I was able to access to the forum using Firefox; since today I am greeted with a web page which say:

I am currently using Google Chrome which isn't blocked.
I tried to clear chache and cookies in Firefox, but I am still blocked.
Can an Admin unblock me?
@Mister_Dave I'm always using Firefox but don't have such an issue gratefully.
@MikeChannon @the_scotsman
Gentlemen. any idea how to help our member?
Ive referred this to a different Admin.

Can you pm me your IP address and page you are trying to access that is blocked?
I'm more worried your browser is doing something malicious, like a bad plugin or something. Did you try with Firefox incognito with no extensions enabled?
I looked up the IP you made that post with and did not see any firewall events. Is it possible your Firefox is using a VPN and Chrome isn't?

The url of the page is simply https://forum.xda-developers.com/
As I've said, until yestarday as well in the past weeks, I didn't had any problem with Firefox; furthermore I didn't changed anything as well I don't have firewalls nor vpn.
In incognito mode I don't get the blocked page; I tried to disable extensions but the problem still remains.
In the meantime I also tried to disable all extensions and I found the culprit: was "User-Agent Switcher and Manager": I disabled it and then re-enabled and now Firefox works again...
EDIT: I spoke too soon: it happened again: I'm going to send you the PM.
EDIT 2: I placed "forum.xda-developers.com" in the Extension's whitelist: seems that works again after various times.
EDIT 3: yay, I can confirm it: I'm writing from Firefox.
