Hello all!
I recieved a brand new HTC Touch Pro 2 today, and was very excited to have finally got it! However, since getting it - 12 hours ago - I have been trying and failing to set up the e-mail side of things. I use both a normal googlemail account, a POP account through outlook, and three accounts that use google aps (mail) as a host. I have followed this to the 't':
https://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=78886
But still no joy on any of the accounts except the bog standard '@[email protected] account. The phone keeps asking for my password, which I know is correct.
Anyone else have the same problems/have any ideas how to resolve this? Before I throw it against the wall! :-(
Hi
I'm having the exact same problem getting my hotmail account to work. I have a vodafone uk branded phone which I bought on eay but I'm using an O2 sim. I've managed to get everything else working but not the email. It's very depressing. It was dead easy on my trusty Xperia.
Thanks for any help...
e-mails not forwarding
Can anyone shed any light on this?
I don't know if this will help, but for your username try putting "username"@gmail.com instead of just your username. That is what I've had to do in the past and it works fine.
My issue at the moment is i have entered all the details correctly but when i try to do a send receive it says "error synchronising" and then popups up a box which says "Cannot connect with current connection settings. To change your connection settings, tab settings". Which i have no clue about because its taking me into all the TMobile data connection stuff.
I get this no matter what connection i setup. But the strange thing is when i very first did it, it worked. Every time since then has failed though.
Tried calling T-Mobile or HTC? I don't know if they could help you.
Mine is working with IMAP gmail

Two things I found.
1. Go to Settings, All Settings, Connections Tab, Connections Icon, Advanced, Select Networks. Top box should be set to T-Mobile Internet.
2. Press Edit (Just under the top drop-down), Proxy Settings. I found the default ROM (UK) was set to 149.254.201.132 - not sure if this is a hard coded ROM error, or a Network wizard setup error - either way, untick the "This network uses a proxy server...."
If this was ticked, all should be OK now.
If not, then do call T-Mobile Tech Support.
Good luck !
I had the same problem on my TP2, unbranded byon T-Mobile. Unticking the "This network uses a proxy server" box solved the problem. I had the same problem with my old TyTn2 as well.
Remenber, if you hard reset you will probably have to do this again!! Hopefully this will solve your problem.
I had the same problem with the exact same error message on my 1and1 email account. I found that when usines imap 1and1 block port 25 (to prevent spam) so when setting up the outgoing server address I had to specify another port (got that from 1and1's FAQ's where its buried and simply says that sometimes port 25 is blocked and if it is try using port xxx (can't remember which one). Anyway that worked straight away for me. Unfortunatley Winmob's error messages are pretty useless so good luck in isolating why the problem has occurred - took me two days to work it out.

I've used Sony Ericsson phones before I went over to WM-phones, and on the SE phones there is a standard app that is very simple, but genious.
It is a very simple app to remember your pin numbers and/or passwords.
It works kind of like this:
At first use, you select a password and a control word. You enter the password every time you enter the program and it then displays your control word so you can check that you wrote the right password.
Whatever password you enter at program startup will get you inside, no error messages or anything. But entering the wrong passord will also display your control word wrong - whatever it might be. When inside all stored pins/passwords are displayed, but only if you write the correct password when entering they are correct. That way someone not knowing the password will not be able to tell if they actually guessed the password as the "pin numbers" show anyway, but with completely randomized numbers. So they are basically just waisting their time.
Not sure if I managed to explain so anyone can understand or if there is such an app already? I've tried dosens of wallet apps, but not succeded in finding one that is as simple and good as the one in SE phones.
I've been wanting something like this for a while. I can't use the last one I had (Flexwallet) since I had to hard reset and lost the registration number.
There are bunch of free apps to do this on your Windows Mobile device:

I'm hoping someone can help me with this.
Using EnergyRom 28008 on a Touch Pro 2 I can't download email off of Comcast. I've had it working on a previous version of the ROM but I don't know why (if it was something I did, if it was the Rom, or some other variable).
Two things get my attention, but they may be nothing. First, is that after I've entered my email password, and save the settings, when I return to settings there are about twice as many stars in the password field as there are letters in my actual password. This occurs if I use manual setup or not. I'm thinking there's a chance it just fills the field with the same number of stars no matter what the real length of the password as a security measure. Or, it's saving my password incorrectly.
The other thing which gets my attention is that in the username field it saves it as "[email protected]" instead of just leaving it as "username". Saving and coming back, it's always adding on the "@comcast.net" part. I'm pretty sure this has to be a problem as Comcast wants the "@comcast.net" part left off.
Does anyone know of a solution? Is this just one of those wait and see things? They'll fix it eventually? Or is it a problem specifically with NRG's ROM? Is there a known solution, perhaps a registry setting I could change to work around the auto-botch effect? Any help would be very appreciated.
Hello TP2 users,
I am a new US T_mobile tp2 user and The MSN password screen keeps popping up and interferes with the use of the device. (wether i check the "Save password" box or not) I dont have the data plan ,only wifi. Sometims when i turn off the phone or the screen and turn it back on it happens too,I have to cancel it each time. All instructions from Microsoft are not of any help.
Anyone else have any ideas? I don't want or need that screen to appear. All other email accounts on the device are already set up with screen names and passwords and work fine.
THanks
up up up
anyone? help
This morning, my Captivate Glide starting giving me a message that I need to Update security settings to use Gmail. I click on OK and I get "Server m.google.com must be able to remotely control some security features on your device. Activating administrator will allow Email to perform following operations"
There's a long list but to give an example of the kinds of things, here's the first one:
"Erase all data
Erase the phone's data without warning, by performing a factory data reset"
Others include monitoring use and changing passwords for the device.
My email is not working on the Glide right now. Presumably because I won't activate the device administrator.
Just a note, I have my Gmail set up through Exchange. Have always done it that way for push but I have not changed anything or updated anything. I would assume this a google issue changing the way their server works BUT I also have it set up that way on my TF700 tablet and it's functioning normal. I also have my wife Android phone (motorola) set up with gmail through exchange and she is not getting this either.
What can I do to resolve this?
