am i missing the option or does it not exist? searched around on the forums and found most of the questions in this regard were related to the mail app... not the gmail app.
right now i'm having to open up each mail individually and delete.
thanks for the help!
While looking at your inbox if you highlight the checkbox next to all the messages you want to delete then you can hit "delete" down at the bottom and delete them all at once. I hope this is what you're asking.

Is there a to have messages count as "read" (i.e. decrement the messages waiting counter) when using the touchflo preview screen. You can scan through messiges when thery are still in the envelope this doesn't change the new message counter, you actually have to open the message to reset the counter. I'd like to have messages count as read when I flip through them in their envelope rather than having to open spam messages that I dont want to read.
That would be nice. Or be able to delete from the mail tab. Right now, so I don't have to open spam, I hit inbox and then hold down on the message until I get the delete option (if it is at top of inbox, you can just hit delete softkey). Anybody else have a better way or an idea for a hack like mentioned?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=379265 you can put "mark all as read' with this .cab
Edit: noticed you said flip through them :/ i would like to do that also
Yes. I like that cab as well, but it would be cool to have more functionality from the mail tab, without having to open inbox. Right now when you hit menu, you have 3 options (New Mail, Accounts, Send/Receive). It would be awesome to get Delete, Mark As Read, Reply, Forward, etc.

I second this request. PLEASE, if someone could develop a tweak, cab, add on, etc that would add all or some of these features. I guess this is directed at HTC, carriers, and/or xda cooks. TIA to anyone who gits 'er dun
Gmail automatically adds contacts you've emailed into your contact list, they belong to "All Contacts" group.
Manually added contacts belong to "My Contacts" group.
But I couldn't get the phone to display *only* "My Contacts". (Contacts -> Hide/Show -> Google...)
Tried Googling the issue, solutions available but don't seem to work on Defy/Motorola.
Any idea?
Thx in advance.
Anyone...?
I have the same problem, which I posted to the Motorola Owners forums as well, only I don't just want to not display those contacts, but prevent then from syncing as well. I can't yet post working links:
supportforums.motorola.com/thread/47333?tstart=0
After syncing my new Defy with my Google account, I've found all the contacts in the phone - not just the meaningful ones from My Contacts that have phone numbers and names - but every last single email address has created a separate contact in the phone.
My question is this: how can I limit the synced contacts to a group, like My Contacts in GMail?

So far, I have not found a way to limit the display or the syncing of these contacts.
There are 2 apps for contacts, the one that is embedded in the dialer (the one that SUCKS), and the other is a stand alone Contacts which allows yo Manage groups in a certain way. I'd like to have good one embedded in the Dialer next to Recent and Favorites.. but im no dev. An certainly is annoying having to switch between them.

Is there a way to ungroup messages in GMail? It keeps adding all messages into one message from one sender..
I don't think so. That's the whole point of Gmail, it threads messages by subject.
Yes You Can..

By default, Gmail was originally designed to keep all the messages and replies with the same subject line grouped together in one convenient place. While this “conversation view” was intended to spare users the chore of rooting around the In box for a particular message in the thread, it can be unwieldy when a lot of people are contributing to the conversation.
Google realized that not everybody likes having the messages clumped together, so Gmail now makes it optional. To ungroup your messages, log into your Gmail account on the Web, click on the gear icon in the upper right corner and choose Mail Settings. On the General tab, in the Conversation View area, click the button next to “Conversation view off” and then click the Save Changes button at the bottom of the settings page.

Ungroup gmail conversation in SGS3

Hey guys! Can anybody help doing the same in SGS3?
Thx
My conversation view is off in Gmail on the web , but in SGS3 gmail App, its still clubing somany msgs and makes difficult to find out the required one.
I am attempting to moddify the stock SecMail.apk to allow an option only currently available from within a message. From the main email screen you have the option to select accounts (if you have more than one), compose messages, or refresh. Once a message is selected (checked) a new set of options is available....flag messages, delete messages, and a sub menu that allows you to move or mark as read/unread.
What I want to do is add the option to forward one or more selected messages from that that sub menu. I am having a difficult time tracking down the xml/smali that will allow this (if its even possible). Can someone chime in and let me know if I am chasin a ghost or if this is actually doable? Any hints tricks or info to help this MOD would be great!
Could still use a little help here guys....LOL.
I cant for the life of me find where that little sub menu is located. The one with the "move", "mark as read/unread" in it. There are some screen shots in the above post to see what I am refering to. I want to add the option to "forward" from that sub menu but I cannot find where its located. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Yes, I tried searching, but did not find anything specific to my question.
Basically, is there a way to add a folder to the stock email app? I would like to be able to move emails into a "Save" folder, instead of leaving them in my inbox, but I do not see any way to add/create a new folder.
I'm using all my email accts (yahoo, gmail, live, outlook.com) in Pop3.
thanks.

What you will need to do is create the folder in the email itself in a browser. Once that's done go to the email app on the phone and tap the inbox name at the top. it will give you a drop down of options, the last one should be show all folders and your new folder should be there (not required, but if you wanted to check). When you check mark an email and choose to move it, it will list all the folders available, if you don't see it just scroll and you will find it...

thanks for the reply... no go though... no additional yahoo folder showed up.. i have one in yahoo called "save"
If I am not mistaken the only way to have other folders is to use IMAP or Exchange POP does not allow for it.

You can create folders for each account, you just can't create a folder while using the combined view.
To the left of create an email it should say which inbox you are viewing. If it says combined tap it. A list will appear. Then select the account you wish to create a new folder in. (Let's say gmail) once in gmail inbox tap your menu button. (To the left of the home button). Select folders. This will show you your current gmail folders. At the top right will be a + sign. Tap that and add your folder.
You have to do that for each account. You can't move emails from different accounts into one generic folder. I have yahoo, gmail and my apple account. I can't select emails from all of those accounts and move them to one folder called personal. I have to create a personal folder for each account and move the emails from each account into its own 'personal' folder.
Hope that makes sense or helped.

Thanks for the help but it still doesn't work for me. I'm using the stock att email app from the clean rom roms.
As you can see in the screen shots, there's no plus button to add a new folder

I'd ask scott (from scottsroms) he is the developer for clean rom and shoupd be able to help.
If you were on the stock rom in the second screenshot there would be a + sign for adding folders.
I didn't realize you weren't on stock firmware. Sorry.

You are welcome. If you can set those mail boxes up AS IMAP or Exchange you will be able to add folders but not the POP accounts. At least I cannot add folders to POP accounts.
