i successfully set up my hotmail in my X1, set the sync frequency to As Items Arrive, intending to activate push mail.
but now everytime i have new mail, i am not notified at all, not even showing of the numbers of new mails in the Today Screen.
i still need to manually go Menu > Send/Receive to update my mailbox.
any1 got solution or what application i need install?
thanks
yes: GMAIL lol
This would be a workaround, but it would work.
1. Create a Gmail account.
2. Forward your Hotmail to Gmail.
3. Set up your Gmail so that you can reply using your Hotmail account. (yeah you can do that...nifty eh?)
4. Go to your Outlook on your phone and set up "gmail-sync" as your push mail account to retrieve from. It's in beta right now but is working 100% perfectly on my Kaiser. (I'm in here because I'm getting a SEX1 in a couple days ) I frickin' LOVE IT - it pushes IMMEDIATELY as soon as the mail comes in. Instructions here:
http://www.google.com/mobile/products/sync.html#p=winmo
5. Now all your e-mails will be stored to your phone permanently too, instead of the inbox getting wiped every time you send receive, or whenever you have your timing set up for that.
6. Forget about Hotmail and start using Gmail lol. Just kidding...but if you set it up that way, you can still use your Hotmail completely, Gmail will be practically invisible to you. (Or is it the other way around? lol)
Seriously, Google's free push e-mail service is amaaazing. I am LOVING it.
ohhh pls tell me how to fwd mails
in aol /hotmail pls
Syncing frequency to As Items Arrive works perfectly for me.
I confirm that both hotmail and gmail works as a push mail on my XPERIA.
For hotmail, you can just use windows live connection setup and choose/set "as items arrive" and set the time as "always". For gmail, you can use the activesync feature on outlook mobile as have been told by deezy7 above.
Or else, you can use the feature from Emoze service.
hi all.
thanks for ur advices.
i did add my hotmail using the Windows Live program, did set to "as items arrive" and did set for "always"
but nothing ever appear in my pjone for new mail unless i do it manually using "send/receive"
i prefer to use my hotmail acc ley.
any1 pls help mi.
thanks

I just set this up and it works Thank u for an explanation
But I have a question. Now only one of my mail accounts deliver mail. Is there an option to set more e-mail accounts to use push mail feature ?
If so how to do it ?

If you would like to have a free account for push mail service you should try Emoze. I have been playing with Emoze and honestly it helps me much to get my XPERIA have numerous mail account which works as a push mail ....
Ok, I did some workaround, created another gmail account and forwarded all my accounts to that one, and I receiving only that one.
Maybe not the best solution , but I prefer not to use online services like mobipush and such where u leave them your user name and password for each account u have...
As an alternative to Emoze i use Seven Beta. It provides near realtime push on most types of account.

Hey icbicb, in response to your other question as well, my suggestion would have been to do what you already did, which is create another gmail acccount I also prefer not to use any other online services, and was very happy when Google came out with Gmail Sync, since I've already been using my gmail account for five years, and don't have to give out sensitive information to yet another company
To those here using other services, I'd suggest you give Gmail Sync a try. Deedee, I noticed you said that Seven Beta provides you with near realtime push. I've noticed with Gmail Sync, and having my Gmail open at the same time on my pc at work, that Gmail Sync pushes in actual realtime! I'll hear the notification on my phone first before my page refreshes to show me my new e-mail! Also, I should mention that I am using gmail plug-ins to autoupdate the screen when new e-mails come in, and the Gmail sync sends them to my phone simultaneously or even before my page refreshes, thus, I know that it is actual real-time. Just like blackberry's service! I'm in love with it right now
icbicb, I'm glad it's working out for you , loyjwe I hope you are able to give this a try...
it's a good solution, but if i transfert the mail from hotmail to gmail they will be of the hotmail box...
And it's a probleme for me...
do you have a solution for that
(excus me for my bad english)
Big advantage of Seven Beta is that it works for almost all POP3/IMAP email systems and it keeps all the accounts separate so that replies from your PPC keep the correct return address.
I have it working on Gmail x 2, Hotmail and a POP3 account and all four accounts are independant of each other.
I said near real time sync as i didn't want to claim real time in case it wasn't. I rarely use the web interface since starting Seven so haven't been in a position to check. As i tell the BB users at work if you have time to compare the two delivery times then maybe you don't need a BB.

Hi titeloo...bad english is okay lol, but, I don't really understand what you mean by "they will be of the hotmail box..." need further explanation!!
@Deedee, gmail does that also....so... for example, when you get mail forwarded to your gmail account, if it was originally sent to your hotmail account, when you reply on the phone, it will reply from the hotmail account. Gmail's set up pretty good that way. I believe right now though they have a limit on the number of accounts you can send mail from, not sure if it is 3 or 4. So it's pretty neat that Seven Beta keeps all accounts separate ...btw very nice avatar
Seven is only restricted by the number of accounts that can be set up in WM, think it's 8 in total, that includes your ActiveSync/Exchange and SMS accounts.
Thanks for the compliment. Always prefer to use real piccies for avatars where practical.
Hello, I'm hoping someone can help.
I recently bought a HTC Desire and I'm loving it except for a big problem with my IMAP email account.
Everything worked perfectly for the first day. However the next morning I noticed I hadn't received any emails. I ended up deleting the account and starting again. No joy.. I ended up hard resetting the device and setting all back up. This time the only mail I received was what it hadn't received prior to resetting.
Now after numerous resets and support phone calls the device receives absolutely nothing yet it will send no problem. I have another account which works fine. Also the email account works fine on all other devices.
I understand the obvious question is whether I've configured the device correctly. Trust me I have.
Please can anyone suggest anything? It's almost like the Desire has cached something about my email account despite the data wipes..?
Many thanks in advance!
David
Just the same issue - "no mails"...
IMAP works perfectly here. I have one Exchange ActiveSync account and one IMAP account.
My IMAP gmail account is working perfectly here too. But I did had problem getting email notification to appear on the status bar which I manage to resolved.
I tried the imap but went back to just the gmail app as the gmail app had the emails come through much faster. I didn't find the imap and gmail worked well at all.
Tried an alternative mail client like K-9?
I'm using K-9 but I don't like it. I haven't yet found anything else that does push with IMAP though. K-9 doesn't work in the same way as other email apps for POP, which I use for another account. In fact it's unusable for me for POP on Gmail as it deletes msgs as soon as they arrive (they are not being deleted from server).

Same problem over here with IMAP failing to retrieve new emails after a certain point. I think the built in client is having difficulty with some messages - if I use another mail client to delete the next email (after the Desire stopped receiving new mail), receiving springs back into life.
I'm going to take a closer look at this. My best guess is that the HTC email client has an obscure bug relating to a mis-implementation of the IMAP protocol. For all sorts of reasons, I'd like to get the HTC client working! Perhaps there's a workaround we can implement until a bug fix is released.
In short, definitely a bug.
I agree, there is definitely a bug in there - more than one. I think I'm going to be forced to go back to good old pop3 for emails on the Desire. Even then though, the HTC mail app doesn't do push. Maybe k9 will work better with pop3 than it does with IMAP. Although neither k9 or the gmail app copy and paste do they? So I don't know what is going to be best.

Well, what do you use?
I use HTC Mail simple because of the home screen widget(hey, its a reason at least) even for my Gmail account(Note, my only account). I have set it as an Exchange mail "As mail arrives(Push)". Hopefully it'll be light at my battery(Theoretically it should, since it won't be repeatedly checking for mails).
What about you?
Somehow I always get 2 notifications (one gmail and one from the htc widget) eventhough I only want the htc one
I use HTC Mail because I think it's much better... especially since I have my hotmail & yahoo mail accounts configured in HTC mail... Another thing I like with HTC mail is that I can go back and read mails offline when I'm not connected to wifi since I don't have an unlimited data plan atm.
Some other things that makes HTC mail better is pinch to zoom, choose between regular or threaded email and much better handling copy / paste / stuff, even though it's implemented in gmail now it's nowhere as good as in HTC mail where selecting text works like a dream.
I use HTC Mail. I like the fact that I can read emails offline. Gmail used to have issues with opening attachments when it was on Eclair but the latest OTA seems to have addressed this issue.
Gmail app for me lol couldn't get on with HTCs mail app
really depends if you prefer pushmail or imap with scheduled retrieve...
I use gmail app as i use gmail as email provider. (but google really does need to stop ****ing around with attachment access, it's kinda ridiculous...)
i use k-9 to have push mail for all accounts.

Then try to open an attachment twice its not possible via googlemail+exchange+htcmail... I hate that but its sadly true...
I use HTC Mail for my gmail account using exchange active sync and push, also pretty much just because of the widget. I have noticed that bug with attachments but it doesn't really affect me much.

k-9 - i think the best , because it is a advancement of g-mail

Maybe yes, also ProfiMail seems to be very popular under the "Pro-Users". But i wonder if there will ever be a MailClient with proper GMail/Exchange support AND a usable UI that doesnt look like Windows CE...
Htc mail app. There is widget and push that is all in need.... Somehow attachments are fine for me now could this be latest update?
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
Yahoo mail for android, only for yahoo obviously but messages are pushed instantly & when i delete mail its actually deleted, i found with htc mail it would only delete it from my phone, when i signed in online mail was still there.
Sent from my HTC Desire runing Android 2.2 via the XDA App
I had problems with HTC mail, and it used to send 2 mails everytime I send one.
So switched to Gmail app and Yahoo mail for Android app as they both push the mails. Also any deleted mails will be synchronised and removed from the actual accounts.
---------------------------------------------
HTC Desire still on 2.1
I have disabled Gmail because HTC mail can integrate any mail accounts I use. These include, but aren't limited to Gmail, Exchange and my service provider's primary mail account.
I used to have the Gmail App active as well, but I got really annoyed by the notifications that would pop up two times for my Gmail account. Last but not least I simply like HTC's interface choices, they fit much better into the big picture.

Doesn't both got push mail? The HTC Mail does and when I used Gmail it behaved as if it had push mail(Which I believe it does).
Ive been using Both together. Gmail for my personal account and HTC Mail to manage my Exchange Server account for work. Both push and I only get individual notifications, each with their own icon. It works perfectly so I am a bit confused as to what may be causing others issues.
Gmail app for Gmail and HTC Mail for the MS Exchange server. I like the labels support in the Google app but the HTC app is much prettier and more fun to use.
The Gmail interface is very efficient for dealing with lots of email. Faster than the webpage on a desktop, dare I say

Hey, hope some one here can help as its driving me up the wall.
I have gone from the HTC HD2 which was great for my mail as I use hotmail.
I now have Desire HD but hotmail seems to be a big problem for it.
First problem I had was I could not get hotmail setup using Microsoft Exchange, after the recent update I can now get it to conncect So I can now view all my folders which is what I needed as I have used hotmail for 10 years and have all my mail set into folders. Problem I now have is I can see my folders but cant open any of my mail using HTML. It all wants to open in plain text
Why cant this great device seem to do somthing as simple as push mail form my hotmail, show my folders and open my mail in html so I can view them in full??
anybody else got this problem and have this sorted?
Thanks nathan
Microsoft are launching their new outlook.com service today.
I got carried away and stupidly converted my hotmail.com account to outlook.com account.
Now I can't sync my phone with the new outlook.com service. (I can login with but it doesn't sync)
Worse, I stupidly deleted my hotmail.com account on phone trying to sync with the new outlook account.
Now all my hotmail based contacts on htc one x is gone, and I am not even sure if I will get it back even if I can sync to this new outlook account. Have no idea how it HTC sense store the phone contact data on hotmail.
One other thing, I am in China at the moment.(i can access to outlook.com without VPN)
Anyone got any solution or insight?

Try setting up an ActiveSync account for it in the stock e-mail app. Here's a link to the instructions. It's for WM and iPhone but the settings are the same.

I was able to configure the new Outlook.com with the settings that I posted here...
gizmocanada.com/2012/08/outlook-com-and-the-htc-one-x-samsung-galaxy-siii-or-asus-transformer-pad-infinity/
I used snt-m.hotmail.com for server address
The documentation also mentions m.outlook.com for the server. Didn't test it yet.

I switched to the Outlook.com site, but I've left my address as @hotmail.com so no issues for me (other than the website not working in Chrome).
Hi
I switched as well before I knew what I was doing
I could get Exchange Active Sync working again by removing it and adding back using my new outlook.com email address.
The instructions are to use m.outlook.com, this connects but fails to validate credentials, perhaps it takes a while to move over. Using m.hotmail.com authenticates okay but sync'ing doesn't work, the same problem a lot of us have had for a couple of months. Using snt-m.hotmail.com and it is syncing again.
Interestingly using the emulator running 4.0.4, then m.hotmail.com works fine from there, so pointing to the issue that the HTC One X Exchange app isn't working with the redirect correctly, hence needing to short circuit in my case to snt-m.hotmail.com. Using m.outlook.com doesn't work from the emulator either, fails with invalid username/password.

Phil
Hi, I tried the snt-m.hotmail.com but I still can't get mine to sync too! Always gives me an error in syncing (the red sync icon). When I tried to connect my hotmail on my bro's android 2.3 HTC Rhyme.. Everything works!
Do you guys have other ways to solve this problem?
I've installed hotmail app, it syncs all..
But I'm not able to create new contact on ur phone in hotmail.
Even I'm.waiting for outlook sync in the mean while
