Hi,
I want to set up Push-Email after installing Leedroid. I know it worked before for two email adresses, one is google mail and the other webmailer host europe. I knew I had my gmail account set up as exchange activesync, the other I don#t remember but it worked.
Now exchange activesync wasn't working and I don't know why, always got an error message. So I tried IMAP googlemail, this works fine, however the push option is missing in the configuration. There are just options for checking after certain periods of time or manually. Same for the webmailer host europe adress. Just six weeks ago I set it up so it worked and I just don't remeber or maybe the new app is different...can someone help me please?
Strange enough it seems to work with the standard gmail android app...I don#t want to use that though.
FYI: I'm forwarding a GMX mailadress to gmail.

Hi guys,
Just need a bit of help as Im having a few problems setting up my gmail accounts.
I set up a gmail account when I first got the fone and everything worked fine. Now its stopped downloading my mail...
Ive checked my settings with the ones on the gmail website and deleted and resetup the account but to no avail.
When I force the account to receive mail (and even when I dont) it goes through the motions and connects to my account, downloading headers etc but its as though there is nothing residing on the server. Ive checked if Ive deselected the option to leave mail on the gmail server after viewing it on my pc but it seams fine.
I can send mail.
Help!
Im a bit thick in all honesty and could be missing something obvious but now its a case of not seeing the wood for the trees.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Damian.
Set it up as IMAP. You can find help for that from gmail help.
then it works
imap.gmail.com
imap4
smtp.gmail.com
make sure you use those settings
Still no joy with this, gonna go through the settings again but Im stumped as to why its not working anymore.
Could be there's a very large message in the inbox that's blocking the download. The HD won't download large files unless you tell it to.
gmail uses pop not imap?I had same problem but solved it by going into gmail account settings and enabling pop3
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.
Hi,
I'll be receiving my new toy next week and after being a HD2 user and growing tired of winmo I was hoping to have multiple exchange server support on the Desire.
According to android this is possible from 2.0.
However it seems HTC has disabled the function and only allows 1 exchange server to be entered.
My main reason for this setup would be to have my work e-mail and my google account ( mail/contact/calendar ) simultaniously on the phone.
Anybody got an idea how to get this working?
Perhaps a different app than the HTC mail application?
Any hints/tips would be appreciated
re: multiple Exchange server support
dirk07,
As far as I can see, there is no option for setting up more than one Exchange server in the Desire. As soon as you set up one Exchange account, when you try to add another account, "Exchange" is no longer in the list of options. However, you *can* have both Exchange and Gmail and numerous other mail accounts set up at the same time, which sounds like it would work for you. You normally would not access your Google account as an Exchange server, would you?
John
True..
However the reason I want to sync my gmail with exchange is cause I also need my contacts and calendar from them..
the work e-mail would need to be exchange as it is the only way I can reach it .. ( no imap/pop access )
Would it be possilbe when disableing sense?
or use something else to sync contacts/calendar?
Your contacts and calendar will come over automatically from your Google account (when you set up the phone, you provide your Google account details). You don't need anything related to Exchange to make your Google stuff synch - that is built into Android. I have a setup just like you, my work email comes across via Exchange, and the Google stuff comes across as well (contacts/calendar/mail) via the Google account setup on the phone.
John
Syncing contacts with more than one source is always a bad idea. I tried this on WinMo with exchange and windows live and found a couple of issues which you are likely to run into with exchange/gmail sync. They are:
1) Exchange sees the entries from live as unique, different entries resulting in duplicate contacts.
2) If you delete an entry from one source, it gets 'revived' when next sync with the other source.
There may be fixes for these issues now but I gave up on it long ago and use my exchange contacts folder as the source of truth.
Im pretty sure you would have experienced these problems before... just adding my 2p
Edit: forgot to mention - without sense, I don't even think you can sync contacts?? Anyone confirm?
@bcmobile
well i would only be syncing mail from one source and mail/contacts/calendar from another
I allready make a point of only keeping my contacts/calendar on one list so I dont get duplicates etc..
@jstegeman
I hope this works If google mail/contacts/calendar syncs by default I indeed would be able to add work mail as my one exchange source..
Guess I wont be able to test untill friday
you can definately have both setup i.e. exchange / gmail as i have. I only have contacts in exchange though. I have also setup gmail so can see emails from there also.
OK guys i thought i would summarise my battle with the energy ROM and activesync/sense 2.5 for my hd2
Previous i had o2 Uk's stock rom, it was ok, but my main mod was to pull email, contacts and calendar off my exchange server and sync the calendar and contacts with my google account through activesync. I used the EnableNonLocalCrossPolination method (ENLCP)to do this.
When i install this ROM i had one problem, the registry key ENLCP was not there. So i entered it and attempted the same trick. However sense would not let me add another activesync account.
Firstly i wiped the phone, then i went in and pair my phone with activesync on my pc. This would enable the ENLCP reg key that i was looking for. I then disconnected the phone, checked the ENLCP reg key on the phone, set it to 1, and then deleted the PC active sync profile on the phone and pc.
After another soft reset i disable sense from the home screen. Another soft reset.
On the next boot i enter the options for googles exchange server (m.google.com) and only ticked the contacts. These sync'd ok. I think enter microsofts email client and enter the 2nd exchange server. Here i only set it to sync my email. I then tested both exchange servers in activesync. They worked!
So i enabled calendar and contacts on both exchange servers and only email on one of them. This again sync'd great. I re-enalbed sense and did another soft reset for good measure.
Sense picked up the email exchange server, but not the google one! Great! Now i add the googlemail email as an imap account through sense and i am done.
Hopefully this helps someone as i have initially struggled with this ROM.
Just came from bb to the G2 and love the phone, however i cant seem to get my work email to connect. I set the username, password, pop3 server, ports, and made sure everything matches correctly. It all goes through like it should work.....and then nothing. When i send test emails and click on "load more messages" i get nothing. Any ideas why this isnt working?
Not sure if this matters, but i am running miui 2.3.4 - 1.5.6
Ok so i can send emails just fine from this account. Seems like it is just the incoming server. Did a double check and everything matches in the account settings with what is on my outlook account. Any help would be awesome. Thanks.
I had some problems getting the stock email app to work as well. I switched to K9 Mail (its free in the Market) and that works just fine for me.
Tried K9 and still no luck. Anyone else have success with a pop3 email account on the G2, or android in general? Thanks.
Hi there,
although i told to check every 15 Minutes the phone doesn´t check for new mail.
Running Android 4.0.2 with the build in Email programm. It is an Imap account.
How can i force my phone to have the Mails checked?
Thanks in advance.
It's IMAP, mail is pushed from the other side.
Powered by Galaxy Nexus™
Thats wrong:
IMAP doesnt mean its push mail (that ist P-IMAP which the original poster didnt mentioned directly)
IMAP means all Mails are on the mail-server and managed there, even folder. THe advantage of imap is that the mails are stored at one place but can be managed from different clients.
That doesn´t solve the problem of not syncing. But perhaps someone else do have an idea? As i have the same problem here.

I just found out that other mailclient (i have tried k9 so far) have the ability to check imap in user defined intervals.
So you have to try another mail client...

IMAP works for me with the built in e-mail client. I have it syncing to my school's outlook express account (.edu address). I have it syncing every 15min and after some messing with the settings/certificates I have sending working as well.
If I had to offer advice I'd say that you should double check your incoming/outgoing server settings and the appropriate certificates/logins are set up.

I gave up on the native email apps a long time ago. I've been using the Gmail app for all my accounts for over 2 years now: http://www.androidcentral.com/using-gmail-your-own-personal-push-mail-server
good luck
BTW, it will probably save you some battery power too.
Hi,
yes the k9 mailer fits my needs. Works fine so far.
Perhaps i´ll try gmail as well.
Thanks a lot for the help.
Bye
