Is there any way to get the GMail app to always show pictures, without having to press the "Show pictures" button? It annoys the hell out of me - I ALWAYS want to see the pictures!!!
Anyone got an answer for me?
Yet another bump since I still don't have an answer.
I'm now running Pays Sense Froyo rom.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
anyone got any ideas?
I want this also....please.
no you cant, its there to protect you not just from malicious code but also from illegal images ......
An honest question - how does making me press a button protect me from malicious code?
And illegal images, well I've never received an email with illegal images in it, and I think I'm prepared to take that risk since I'm an adult!
I just want my pictures shown straight away!
If the same account was able to have pics shown by default on the iPhone surely some has a fix or script or workaround for this bad idea on a Droid?
Thanks Kevin
"Show Pictures" button issue - WTF?
I am using Android 2.2 on a Droid X and I M NOT able to see my HTML emails automatically? I have to hit a "Show Pictures" button EVERYTIME?? This is the dumbest thing I have heard.
I can turn this option on in my GMail account, so we can't I turn it on in the GMail app on my Android phone?
Security? That is a lame-ass excuse, like I said, I can turn it on in my web based GMail account and GMail automatically filters 99% of all SPAM messages automatically AND IF there is SPAM in my email box, it's usually something I know not to click on it (on the phone) and when I do log into my webmail I report it as SPAM. WTF?
I solved this problem by using the K-9 mail application.
It is in the market and you can download the latest version off the developers google dev web site.
It has the setting to always show pictures.
Good luck to all.
Kevin
This has been solved now.
This post from this thread provides a GMail update that is flashable through ROM Manager or recovery.
Works a treat!
Thank you so much. I also think it pretty freaking stupid and not insecure. Scripts should always be be disabled but I dont see how allowing/placing/resizing picture is dangerous at all. There are empty spaces, that when you click them it goes to a link. It was a picture with a link attached, but now its clueless link. Its more dangerous to allow contextual boxes then pics. Downloading anything illegal without criminal intent is not prosecutable. My 2 cents anywho.
Thanks..I have updated Gmail app..The problem is now resolved.
Thinking about getting the phone - but just have one question as this has been holding me back for a while now from getting an Android phone.
Could anyone confirm if folders and sub folders for TouchWiz email Exchange client are all on one level or have a tiered structure as per Outlook ie:
Folder 1
¦
------ Sub Folder 1
Thanks.
That woul be a very important information for me too!
Looking forward to detailed answers!
TIA
+1
Thanks!
I can't confirm the folder structure but can confirm that Activesync works.
Thanks!
Could you confirm some other things, too?
- bi-directional contacts sync
- bi-directional calendar sync
- bi-directional sync of recurring appointments
- html mails
- confirming appointments
Hmmm. Folder structure depends on the view you look at it in. It shows all my Exchange folders in a list in the main view (there's a quick dropdown to change folder) but in folder view, it shows in hierarchy.
Bi-directional contacts and calendar have been working since the original SGS and all synced to my phone fine. Not sure about recurring appointments but it syncs all of mine from Exchange to the phone fine. HTML mail works fine too (would be a bit ****ed up if it didn't!). Never tried confirming appointments so I can't say anything about that.

Thanks for the information. That's interesting because the default Android email client on 2.3.3 does not seem to include an option for folder viewing hierarchical folders...
I'm on my first full day so can report on this a bit now.
I'm trying out the stock client with an ES 2010 server. Some nice surprises:
- Full folder structure accessible
- Server search
- Task sync (!)
- Decent interface (don't love the dark background for the email list...)
- Syncs faster than my Atrix running Froyo
- Nice little widget icon showing unread emails
- it's got a crazy 2-pane inbox view w/preview when in landscape mode (think tablet view or desktop Outlook) - this is really cool!
- Out of office setting
On the downside, the email list widget sucks - it doesn't scroll and only shows 3 most recent (not even unread) emails so that's a bit of a disappointment. Also the calendar widgets are nice but they're too large and not resizable. Thankfully Calwidget works fine.
I'm going to try to live with it. I have a paid TD license and I had gotten used to their widgets on my Atrix, but I suspect stock is more battery friendly.
Thanks for the info. Would you mind posting some screenshots of the email client. I used Froyo, and I can't even do a search on my emails. I ended up using TD as well. Do we have search now? Is there pinch to zoom on emails? If not, can we resize font size? and How? sorry too many questions.
Thanks in advance.
I use sgs2 as my primary business phone., exchange 2010 support is the best ever, on windows mobile or android.

Here you go...I've been using it for a few days now and NO need to employ TD which is saying a lot for a native Exchange client! The only thing missing is Notes sync which I can live without (don't change notes that often and can just drag them into Evernote).
The client actually blows me away...to answer your question, we have search as you'll see in the screenshots, as well as pinch to zoom, font resizing in both the Inbox view as well as the message body. Let me know if you have any other q's.

Is it possible to sync multiple exchange-calendars?

Yes, the option to add another account is still there after one is already present

I don't need to sync multiple exchange-accounts, but I have several calendars in one single exchange-account.
Is it possible to sync all calendars, that are present in my exchange-account, or can I only sync one?

No options there for the "calendar folders" so I don't think so. Then again, I don't have any sub-folders so I can't be 100% sure.

Actually I do not work with sub-folders in calendars, but I have several calendars in Outlook under the main-folder, that are synced to exchange.
Can you try to add a new calendar in outlook and see if you can sync that second calendar to the phone via exchange?

Sounds and looks fantastic!
Hey Thanks a lot....
One more question. From the screenshot, I can see the search is "search server" and not local search.. is that true, because if so, then I need internet service to search and also it would be slower.
Thanks again
Hi can anyone check if attachments can be opened if they are received as part of a calendar invite? Say a pptx or something similar...

I found it hard to believe after I got all my gmail contacts and google + contacts on GN...I got multiple entries of the same person. In HTC sense or tough wiz they usually automatically suggest you to links up those entries. But I look and look though all the options in ICS contact apps, didnt see it. Did google seriously forgot about it?
and none of the facebook contacts show up at all...probably not compatible with ICS yet?
No more Facebook integration after gingerbread.
U can use SyncMyPix. I know it's frustrating but I think this is the best solution available so far

You can link contacts together, but only manual and difficult.
Open contacts, then open person which you would like to link to another, then from top-right menu click "edit". Then click the same menu button again, there is option "join". It's the only way I found to combine contacts together.....

Ive tried this because ive wondered about linking contacts since my XOOM updated to ICS and once you click Join, on the top of the list is a Suggested contact, meaning the same name so its kind of easy to do if you know the multiples.
Most of mine linked automatically if they have the same name on my phone as they do on Facebook. Those that don't I joined manually
Haxsync on Android marker ... syncs pictures with face detection high quality ...and adds them to people automatically including recent posts ... well worth the money

Hey guys,
Click the phone icon on the dock, and whilst on the phone tab....
Is yours full of google & facebook contacts that you don't want,
I also have multiple contacts for the same people,
How can I clear all these people, & show just my sim contacts.
I've managed to show just my sim contacts in the 'people' tab, but the 'phone' tab is really bothering me, I don't want all these people on my phone - nor do I want multiple contacts for the same person.
Any clues how I can fix this?
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk
Mine was showing my Google+ contacts, so I went to the Peoples App and clicked on "Phonebook" in the top left and un-ticked the ones I didnt want to see.
You can link contacts. Can't quite remember how to do it manually but I'm surprised Sense hasn't already picked up that they are duplicates as it would normally automatically suggest that you link them

Hi, that's what I already did to fix the people tab.
I mean the phone tab, it's full of rubbish - google contacts, facebook contacts & even multiple contacts of my own contacts.
There must be a way to clear this up, I don't understand why it's like this...

Ah ok, I should have read your original post a bit better sorry. Mine is exactly like yours as well, but no idea how to filter that list, can't even see a menu or options button anywhere.

I know, I've tried to look for a menu sort list for the phone tab, I don't think one exists.
Stupid, as they have this filter list for the other tab.

Since last week I have some problems with the gmail app on my One X. I don't seem to get all my emails on my phone. When I check my mail online, there is still unread email in my inbox?? I didn't get these emails on my phone? Somehow gmail didn't push them..
Furthermore I also don't receive push notifications from friendcaster. Only when I open the app, the messages get pushed??
Anyone here with the same problems?
Hello
Try clearing the cache.
Then go in to settings clock on your account and make sure Email notfications is tricked

Yes,i am using it because i have many account on multiple providers so i need the built in mail app.
EDIT:
I recommend to download from the playstore K-9 for pure and after that download Pure Messenger.That will allow you to use how many mail account you want(you set them up in the K-9) and after that add the widget from the Pure Messenger.This is how it looks:
Ok I see.
All I know is that there are diffrent types of protocol's one is POP and one is IMAP im not sure which one it is but I used to have one sent in my outlook and when i logged on to gmail in browser my mail is still there even though i deleted them on outlook.
I think a quick google search will help you fix the problem, al so i think IMAP is the one you need if you want read mail on your phone to be marked as read mail in you outlook/gmail account.
Im sure someone with more experience on this will be able to help you.
Good luck
