Why won't my student email adress connect to the gmail app? - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys I'm having a problem here...I'm trying to set up my girlfriends email address on her new Inspire through the Gmail app and it is saying that the login and password failed. I remember having the same problem when I was trying to set up my phone but I forget what the solution was. Her email address is [email protected] and it goes through gmail on the computer. I have no idea what to do here. I searched and searched and there is nothing. I tried enabling Imap but it didn't help.

Contact the school's IT dept. They will help you figure it out. We cant help you here since every school has a different way they setup their email.

Exchange SP2 Push Mail Providers

Hi all,
Just upgrading to new Imate ROM. Now it seems that Universal has push email can anyone recommend an Exchange SP2 direct push email provider for consumer market? Many thanks for taking the time to read.
Tom C (UK) :lol:
The onlyone I know for the moment is 4smartphone.net - if you find any better (means cheaper), let me know!
Some report are saying 4smartphone.net takes 30 seconds to push an email to your device, rather than 5 seconds or less that others are getting via their own exchange servers.
Its worth asking these website exchange account providers what frequency they run the push 'heartbeat' at - you might end up with a big bill if they haven't set the Exchange/firewall to a reasonable rate.
Device SMS Address
I've just signed up for the 4smartphone trial, but Orange are completely unable to tell me what the Device SMS Address should be. They don't have a clue what this is about. I was guessing [email protected], but that doesn't work.
Does anyone know what it should be?

If you're using the aku2 rom then you don't need an sms address. The MSFP/Direct Push works via http not sms. Waaaaaay better!
Settings
I think it is that version. I'm using the new ROM version 1.30.68 with Radio version 1.09.00. I can see the push mail icon in Comm Manager, but it's greyed out, so I'm not sure where to go from here. The 4smartphone support pages are not exactly informative.
Can anyone point me to a website about setting this up? My searches are not getting me far.
Thanks.

Got it working
Just need to ignore the instructions on the 4smartphone web page about SMS Device.
From the moment of clicking send on my Desktop to the email arriving in my device inbox the time taken is about 25 secs, which includes gmail forwarding it to the 4smartphone address.
4smartPhone Help!!
Glad to hear that you got the SMS problem sorted which help me out too. I can now sync with contacts but what do I do for the email. Do I have to set an account up on WM5 which I have done but there is no push coming through I have to manually send and receive. Any help much welcome. Thanks
You need to set it up using active sync in WM5. You will need to add a server (secure.4smartphone.net) then your username, password and domain (4smartphone). It will then sync using the GPRS connection.
I've got Outlook desktop, Outlook Web Access (with smartphone) and Outlook on WM5 all synchronizing nicely. My only problem is that I have three pop email account on Outlook desktop, but 4smartphone only seems to work with one.
And just to add the obvious, you need to have email being forward to the address that you got @smartphone.com

4Smartphone.net are US based, where email to SMS is very common. It took the Americans about three years to wake up to the fact that everyone else in the world has to pay for SMS messages to be sent - hence the new push technology from Microsoft.
What they are referring to is a feature known as AUTD (always up to date) which is how Exchange used to do push. A specially created SMS text message would be sent to your phone which told your device that something had changed, and it would then do a sync.
I am told that it worked very well - it is just unfortunate that for everyone outside of the USA the feature would cost many thousands to run for each single user.

4smartPhone Help!!
Thanks for your quick reply. I have forwarding set up and all the correct settings for Active Syn in WM5, UserName, Password, Domain and Save password. Under the Options in ActiveSync there now appears and Exchange Server with the following selected Contacts, Calendar, E-Mail, Tasks.
I'm still not sure though what to do with the email all the above are syncing via 3g. In the Messages section do I have to create a new account and if so what are the correct setting for this?
Thanks again for the help and suggestions.
Tom C.
When it syncs with the Exchange server it automatically goes into the Outlook email inbox on your device. If you've previously been synchronizing with the desktop it wipes out those emails, which is why I'm trying the Pro version of 4smartphone and synchronising all three.
Have you checked if test emails you are sending are reaching the 4smartphone email address? You can do that by logging into the web version of Outlook via the link on their website.
Also the push email icon in Com Manager should now be working and it will say Microsoft DirectPush at the top.
That may not be much help, but I am also completely new to this.
4smartPhone
Once again thanks for the help. Just about got it sorted as I read your reply. The missing link for me is that the you don't have to sent up a seperate email account I was looking for server addresses extra but all those go under ActiveSync. Getting mails fine now but not too sure yet about sending them. Are yours sending fine or is there a delay?
Thanks again, you are still once step ahead of me
I've got Push email working with mail2web.com and have a few questions:
I've gota couple of email addresses that won't forward to my mail2web email account and I don't really want to use mail2web's harvester as that only checks once every hour, so I was wondering whether it's possible to set Outlook on my PC to synce with my mail2web account so that my PC will download emails from my POP accounts, then upload them to my mail2web server, which then pushes the emails to my phone?
Or is there a simpler way to do it?
Also, when I reply to an email that's been pushed the reply address is always my mail2web email address, which is a pain as it confuses people and gets rejected by my email groups. How can I change the default address that my replies go from, or even just change them on each email as I reply?
I'm sure I'll have more questions soon.! Cheers.

[Q] Gmail Exchange

Hey folks,
I'm trying to set up Gmail with Exchange through the HTC Mail Widget.
I get past the first username/password, and then it again asks for server address/domain address, and I fill them out accordingly (m.gmail.com/google.com/ssl).
I've tried this both manually and automatically.
It tries to verify and keeps coming up with a pop up 'Authentication failed, please verify username and/or password'.
I've retyped it about 20 times, it's working with the Gmail widget.
help?
I changed the server to m.google.com and not m.gmail.com and it worked!
I tried to delete this post but I am unable to.
Sorry for the hassle.

htc email client and issues with forwarded email

So I have an email account.. "[email protected]" and I forward that email to my other account.. "[email protected]". Whenever I get email from this account that is forwarded it comes up with the from and to but the message is always blank. It comes up fine with the k9 mail client, and whatever the one is that comes with MIUI, Koni Elite etc.. I've tried searching for any setting that it may have but there is nothing to show the message or make it show up. Anyone else have this issue? My gmail and my charter accounts work just fine too but I work for a school district and they are Groupwise email accounts. 1 is just forwarded to the other. Thanks for any info on this if any. I've tried many google searches but can't seem to find this exact issue..
one last attempt to see if anyone else has this issue.. I know it can't be just me.. no one else forwards email to another account? if so set it up with the stock htc email client and then send a message to the account that gets forwarded.. check your mail and see if you can read it.. thanks for anyone willing.

Problem setting up Yahoo mail

When I first got the phone I had no problem setting up my Yahoo mail account on this phone but it's been acting up lately as right now it doesn't even let me access my email and keep saying wrong username/password (I already checked them btw). Tried to set up manually but still no luck, turn on Wifi doesn't help so I don't know what the problem is. Does anybody have the same issue and know how to solve?
Thanks in advance.

Need Help Updating The Password For My Email On My Galaxy Tab S

HELP!! Technophobe.....
Hi, I am useless at problem solving. I have recently changed the password to my email account on my home computer and now my tablet will not receive emails. When I click the email icon it goes automatically to my email account but has not updated them and I'm assuming it's because I've changed my password to the Yahoo account and the same needs doing on my tablet? However, I've tried (I think I've tried) to change it on the tablet to match the incoming server server settings i.e. typed in my email address and new password but it just says 'authentication failed? Someone help please?
Make sure when putting in the details that a capital isn't automatically being added.
