[Q] CM6: No Email Search? - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I posted this in the CM6 thread and got ignored. This is a huge drawback if CM6 cannot search emails.
Can anyone tell me how to do this if the function is there and I'm just missing it?

Why doesn't anyone think this is a big deal? Android - a GOOGLE os - cannot search email.
And no one cares?

Are you whining about the GMail client not being able to search mail, or about the AOSP POP/IMAP client not being able to search mail?
Because the GMail app can, and I'm not sure how you'd expect an IMAP client on the phone to be able to.

Must be the aosp mail app. Gmail app searches great.

If you only use gmail, then use the gmail app. Email is for other email providers. And of course if you want to use gmail with the email app you can, but why would anyone want to?

Because the gmail app kind off sucks. So does the mail app actually. WTB combined inbox.

Stock email apk

Can anyone send me a link to the stock email apk. It's seems to be the best email app out there. Unless someone has something better. Thanks

Gmail is THE BEST for @gmail.com emails. But, I've heard others say k9 was the best 3rd party email clien.

not to hijack this post, but my gmail just up and stopped working and i was making the switch to just use it instead of using yahoo, but yahoo is the only thing that works for me
Gmail is good but it's only for gmail accounts. I need for other e mail service

S3's email app is terrible! Alternatives?? please help

I liked the stock email app on the galaxy S2, I figured that once I got my s3 that email would be similar, but it's not, it is much much worse. Is there any way to install the old mail app from the S2 on the S3?
I have tried the alternative email programs from the play store and I just don't like them.
Please help!
Thanks a million.
Enhanced Email...
I may not be correct, but.... I believe the GS2 used an email program built by Seven.
You may look and find an apk for Seven email+IM that should be similar. I personally cannot find a download link for it.
If you go their website, they do have a BETA Android program. http://community.seven.com/download.php Again, not sure if this is exactly what you are looking for, but may be worth a shot.
Edit: It appears they abandoned Android in the last year or something and the only client they currently are shown as making is the one for Hotmail's Android client. Sorry.
Gmail
Its just fine...

Another recommendation...
K-9 Mail is IMO a good email client. I don't know if it's one of the alternatives you tried and didn't like.
It's larger that Enhanced Email, but cheaper... (free)...
I'm new or I'd post a link to the Play store.
(I have no affiliation with K-9 Mail whatsoever.)

I'm going to try and push the SGS2 email.apk and exchange.apk later this evening. Please feel free to try it first if you have access.
I have been using Secure9 Mail for 6 months. And it has built-in encryption (if you want to use it).

Thanks for the suggestions guys. I've tried all the free email apps on the play store and none of them really did it for me. Finally tried enhanced email too and that is a step in the right direction, hopefully I don't have any troubles from it.
p.s. I have the Gmail app, but I need to access my work email somehow.
Try touchdown by nitrodesk. It's one of the best

Only one I found I liked was Inomail,
What about the AOSP Google email? I think it looks great and works very well.
yea if you need to check an exchange acct at work I usually go between nitrodesk touchdown and moxier mail. One of those should be perfect for you I prefer touchdown really.
What is it about the stock SGS3 email app that you don't like?

do you have the apks for AOSP?
the rom NoAOSP http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1759245
uses the email client from google nexus; a user there said it was the only email client they've used on the S3 that allowed them to connect to their work email.
perhaps download that rom, open the zip with 7zip and pull out the email.apk and put it on your phone.
try to install it normally, if not you may have to copy it to system/app with root explorer (reboot afterwards)
might be worth a look

In the SGS2 email you could make it inverted and control font size from the app.
I pushed the old app every way i could. No joy. May try a flashable zip, but I can't see that making much difference... I guess it would have to be ported.

Is there any way to install HTC Mail app on Nexus ?

So, is there any way we can install the HTC mail app on our Galaxy Nexus ? I love that mail client and i would use it on my nexus also. :laugh:
I guess it requires htc sense framework, so most probably no.
If this is not possible, what is the best mail client ? The default one is horrible
K9 was a really popular one last time I needed an alternative to stock

Mail clients on Android are pretty terrible. You've either got the choice of equally bad open source clients like K-9, or ad-ridden clients like Aqua Mail or Maildroid that require a payment to get the pro version.
I stick to the default mail client because it works fine for me despite being kinda crappy.
Everything is crap. Only the HTC one was ok for me... Isnt there any way to port it ?

if you port the framework for sense, yes. otherwise i would guess no
What's wrong with the nexus default? I use both accounts and constantly get mail almost every minute on of them. Gmail is the one pissed about, its slow and unreliable most times.

The HTC one has some excellent features which you just don't get on the defaut client, like the ability to see all emails from all folders and all accounts in one pot.. That would be the main selling point for me!, is there a paid for client that can do that?

I have been using Touchdown to access my official mails (exchange server). Feature wise I think this is the best mail client on android but UI can be better.

Thanks Zepius but this doesn't let you view all emails from all selected folders, it only combines the inboxes from two or more accounts.

Just tried SolMail and it works pretty well. The only downside that I have found during these few hours is that SolMail does not nest conversations.

Gmail is more than enough for me.
Important is you can receive and read your messages.
And yes i add few email accounts in one email client that includes my own domain.

Im using k-9 since 3 years
had the same problem as you (none gmail mail provider )
i found "MailDroid" the best.
you can even consider the free version as it enough for the most users..
but and there's a big but.. im still using gmail app for my gmail account as it's much more intuitive then any other email client i tried in android.
Just though of something, why not just link your account to gmail? I have a few that aren't gmail which are linked to it and it works great.
k9 email. I have been using for the last 2 years.
10 email accounts, many check every 5 mins when I wifi, wakelocks high but I still get over a days use, since I charge every night, its not an issue
with those toggle shortcuts change k9mail to sync only when background and autosync is checked, and turn on auto sync at will, so with mobile data or away, you can trigger when you like.
