Exchange Activesync-hotmail

Has anyone successfully sync with their hotmail account?
I tried to change the server address to m.hotmail.com and successfully lead me to another page to sync with emails and accounts but when I click sync, it will show an error saying failed to create the account. please try again later

I think that all hotmail accounts have not yet been enabled for exchange active sync (unfortunately)...

Mine has always worked fine......

I get 'failed to create the account. Please try again later' on my device.
Perhaps it's not enabled on my account. Any way of telling if it has?

Hi guys, I do have exchange active sync working on my Hotmail account. Sync of email, contacts and calendar work flawless. Hang in there apparently this week more news will be made available regarding EAS.

I have the same problem.
it seems to connect to the server, but is then unable to create the account.
I think i have the wave 4 hotmail. but supposedly that is not all you need.

Same problem for me. Hopefully my account becomes enabled soon

It's not your account that's the problem, it's HTC's mail app.
Try downloading 'Improved Email' from the market, it's free and works like a charm.

[Q] Email account issues post ROM flash

OK so I'm having some odd problems after I flashed the Gingersense ROM. Right after I flashed the ROM the add email account screen was missing all of the standard options I had seen before. So, I restored the data to the mail app using Titanium Backup. That worked for a little while. Then I needed to change my email password.
When I tried to go in and change my Yahoo password, it said it failed to communicate with the server. When I tried to delete the account I keep getting the same error. 504 0:null
Anyone have any idea what that means? Can I somehow reinstall the mail app? will that help or should I try reflashing the ROM?
And before anyone pokes fun at a person still using Yahoo, I've had that account for a lot longer than gmail has even existed.
Edit: Just did a nondroid backup to the original froyo, still broken!

As an additional piece of info, I keep getting emails from [email protected] saying that my account "could not be authenticated" though those are the only emails coming in to that account

In case anyone runs into the same problem, I thought I would post how I finally got it at least halfway back to normal.
I ended up having to run the factory reset, which wiped out all of the accounts that synced to my phone.
After running the setup and tying my google account back to my phone, the gmail account never showed up in my email.
It still won't let me setup an email using the quick account type shortcuts, only with the POP/IMAP shortcut. I was able to get both my yahoo and my gmail back up and working, though I am missing the nice little icons for the accounts I had seen previously.

Oh and in the process I also somehow lost the desktop dock app.

Email client keeps crashing after ActiveSync setup

Hi,
i've received my GN two days ago.. (All Stock | 4.02)
During the setup of my Exchange 2010 account the email client crashed.
I'm getting errors with the security requirement of the exchange. (error messages with "null")
Now i can't use email. direct crash of email or sync service after launch.
I try to delete data of email in settings, but "delete data" is blank out.
Everthing is just fine, exept email. Any ideas?

Maybe you can delete from settings the account. Not from email.

It does't show up in accounts.
Is there a way to delete email data/account setting via adb?
I want to prevent a factory reset...

Do you have a valid certificate installed on your Exchange server?

On the exchange side everything is fine incl. SSL-Cert.
All other phones (iPhone's & Desire S') work without any issue.

Hotmail or exchange

I am using the galaxy sII tmobile. with that said, I always have used the social hub way to set my hotmail account. it used to work flawlessly. I would go in add account and select hotmail and agree to social hub setting and there is my push email, now all of the sudden it quit working and now I get the 301 error while setting an account like that. 301 error says my account username and password is not right. but funny thing is when i set it via active sync exchange it works.
i have tried many roms but all are giving me the same error.

Try changing your Hotmail password and set up your email again see if it works. Sometimes my yahoo gives wrong user name and password then after an hour comes back to normal.

Use exchange for push. They have made changes as far as I can remember.

Same thing happened to me with my school email. Worked for a year then one day it just stopped. What it was is the school changed their server so they could funnel email to their new app.
So I set up my account through my native phone app and these are my settings that seem to work
Edit: oddly enough the hotmail app works for me suddenly lol. Recently I did re-flash my firmware then re rooted and deodexed maybe that fixed it
Actually uninstall the app if your using the hotmail app, then go to settings then backup and reset and uncheck it, it should warn you it will delete any saved backups hit ok then reinstall the app and try the account again. I just noticed on my ion under backup and reset that it saves deleted app settings so if your app bugged out in the settings it will always come back unless you delete your back-up
