Vanilla Android Email App - Galaxy S I9000 Themes and Apps

I have been trying out a few email clients for Exchange recently but none all of them fail to impress for one reason or other. This is one of the most important things I need on my phone. Most of the ones in market-TOuchdown, Roadsync etc are too laggy. The one from Samsung is even worse.
Does anyone have the apk for stock Android email app? If anyone does please upload or send a link, I found for Eclair on some other forum.
If someone can get this for Froyo and upload, should be helpful since I know many people would like to try this out.

[Q] Anyone have a separate installable APK of the AOSP mail client?

It seems like every ROM out there with Sense still has the HTC Mail app, which I absolutely hate (among other reasons (it is ugly and a pain to use), it can't handle multiple Exchange accounts).
There used to be a flashable .zip out there from Calkulin of the AOSP e-mail client, but if I recall correctly it quit working at some point along the way and started causing FCs.
Simply copying the AOSP client from non-Sense ROMs doesn't seem to work either.
I would make an installable/flashable version if I could, but at this point that's a little above my head...I'm not much of a java/dalvik person, so I am *really* confused by the android source tree and why I can't just type make in the email app directory and get it done.
Bit of a digression, but yeah, does anyone have the AOSP email client in an installable form that works on current FroYo ROMs?
P.S. Bonus if someone can remove the stupid 30 day max limit on Exchange mail in the AOSP client...I don't understand why they put that in there...
Is this what you're looking for?

Not exactly, I'm not having problems with the security policy (while the HTC client does enforce them, the AOSP e-mail client doesn't enforce the lockscreen one, which is all I would care about anyway).
The time limit for old messages is just the client, since the HTC one can display all old Exchange mail.
However, kudos as I did find an installable version of the AOSP mail client in a thread linked from that one (I've been looking for days!).
Link is here for those interested:

Cool. I think it's actually basically the same .apk, but from different developers. The one you used should disable the securty policy as well, but both are the AOSP email app, just with that modification.
So Xeno, did this work for you...I am in a very similar situation and would like to switch to the AOSP email.
Any issues?
Thanks in advance!

Sorry for the delay, yes this worked for me, but this was obviously waaay back. I think I've been running all AOSP ROMs since the Gingerbread ones became stable, so obviously the AOSP client works there, though it does enforce that damned policy. However, I ran the AOSP client I linked above with every 2.2 Sense ROM I had with no issues with either of the Exchange servers I use.
You just got me to thinking about security and the 2.3 AOSP client...not sure I know enough about where the hooks are to produce a similar client for Gingerbread, but I may look at that this week, because I'm tired of having to use the pass code, plus it often 'breaks' when I flash new kernels/etc, not letting me past the code input screen even when I use the correct code.

Facebook Contact Problems

Well, I know about 95% of the questions at the moment are going to involve the new Froyo OTA question, so if someone can answer this I'd appreciate it lots.
Basically.. I installed the new Facebook app from the Market, and I synced my contacts (maybe it happened before that, I don't really know) but for some reason, it's come up with over 1700 contacts.. All the same people, just with lots saying "com.facebook.auth.login" when I go in to a specific contact.. For example, I've synced most of my contacts with Google aswell, which looks like the image I've uploaded..
But why is there 4x com.facebook.auth.login there? There really shouldn't be 1.. And is there any way to get rid of them?
Dan
i've got the same issue except some contacts just show 1 com.auth.... where as some others have over 8! this is on a desire by the way with the new 2.2 OTA update
I had the exact same problem. It's a conflict between the Facebook for Android and Facebook for HTC Sense apps. Seeing that I could only get rid of the FB for Android, that's what I did and now all my contacts are fine.
Is there any way to ditch the FB for HTC Sense? I don't want it, the Android app is much nicer looking and probably works better, too.

[SOLVED] HTC Sense Facebook sync to CM6.1.1

Hey I was wondering if anyone has ever attempted or thought about this. The one thing I like about Sense that I have found irreplaceable in non-sense roms is the facebook sync which downloads high-res contact photos as opposed to the low quality blurry ones the official facebook app downloads. Sense also downloads your own profile picture. Now, maybe this is a crazy request but does anyone thing it may be possible to install just the facebook sync from Sense on a rom like CyanogenMod6.1.1? I would think it may require a bit of modifying to get it to run on a non-native rom.
The alternative will be to find some PC/Mac app that downloads contact pictures and syncs with gmail.
I have no ideas about what you are proposing,.... but you could give this a shot, never used it myself so give us some feedback if you try it boss.

It worked like a charm.
I was reluctant to try a desktop app because I'd have to install windows again to my Mac but it was well worth it. It allows you to select matches manually if auto-detect doesn't get it right (it's gets about 90% of them). And best of all, you get much higher resolution photos. Go back to the application once a week to update photos with one click. I highly recommend this, they just need to port it to Mac!
Excellent. I'll be doing the same later today.
If you don't mind can you just edit your thread title (edit 1st post,... go advanced,... change title) and just add [SOLVED] to the start of it. Nice one.

[Q] Group iMessage Compatibly/VZ Messages apk download?

Hello all,
I have an issue that I no is not unique, so hopefully someone can help me out here. I need a messaging app that is compatible with the group messaging that is in iOS 5 (iMessage). My gf has an iPhone 4s and regularly creates group messages, which get very annoying for me because I cannot follow the conversation or provide my input, unless i decipher the individual messages and respond to everyone in the group individually. I have tried Handcent SMS (my daily driver), Go SMS Pro, Chomp SMS, and the stock messaging app. None of them seem to replicate it.
There are a few others that I have found through my endless searching such as WhatsApp, but that requires everyone to be using that same app. This wouldnt be an issue for me, except for the fact that getting these people to not use the apple based product is literally impossible.
I have found that verizon messages does actually work with this functionality. Atleast, from reading the comments.
(Due to not having enough posts, I cannot link to the Verizon Messages App on the Android Market)
It doesnt say it is compatable with the Galaxy Nexus, but at one point and time some people managed to get it installed and say that its working fine. I have searched for the .apk to no avail. If anyone has the .apk or a link to it, that would be very helpful. If not, then any other suggestions in getting this functionality would be greatly appreciated.
For reference: My CDMA GNex is running: CND 1.3.2, Franco-v16, w/ full 4.0.4 CDMA/LTE radios. Thanks in advance!
Best,
RC3
Don't think you'll ever get an app that's compatible with iMessage. That's proprietary Apple code that's only in the iPhone.
Seems as though there is a method, it was posted in my similar thread on rootzwiki. I cannot link to it, but it is in the rootzwiki forums under CDMA Galaxy Nexus with the same title as this thread. Thanks!

Facebook Friendstream on GSIII

Hi, I am not sure, if anyone is using facebook friendstream on GSIII. If so, your help is appreciated.
Hi, I am looking for facebook friend stream. Is it not available for Touchwiz JB ROM? If available, can anyone provide an apk please? If not available, can you tell me which one do you use as an alternative for facebook friend stream?
Also, I like the way facebook picture shows up, when we call someone or when we get a call. But, for some reason, I am not getting this functionality. Appreciate solutions.
