I tried to manually create a Hotmail account on my Tilt 2, it didn't sync right. When I tried to deleted thru "Mail Setup" the account appears greyed out, so I cant delete. Then I created another one with Windows Live, it named it "Hotmail1". It still didn't sync right, so I tried to erase it using the "switch account" in Windows Live and it erased the original account I created manually. The other account, "Hotmail1" I can't get rid off. I've searched, I've read and tried, but nothing works. I'd like to be able to manually erase the "Hotmail1" account info/setting without having to hard reset or re-flash.
I have Jackos EVO JackFULL 1.5.0 EVO WM6.5.x 28236 + Sense 2.5.

Ok i've just thought of two things that are getting kinda irritating on my M5000.
Firstly the fact that no programs seem to un-install, Every time i try to remove any progs i get an error telling me that the uninstall was unsucsessful and asking if i wish to remove it fromt the list of installed progs.
Anyone else have this problem? is there anything we can do about it or is it a case of manually removing everything?
the other thing is the hotmail email account, i dont ever use hotmail and it annoys me having to scroll through the extra account in messaging. is there a way to remove the hotmail account?
Regarding your uninstalling problem. If it happens on all programs you try to uninstall, then your uninstaller is corrupted. If it only happens on one program, then it's probably just that the uninstall information of that program is corrupted. You may want to try other utilities to do the uninstalling (eg. SKTools).
About the hotmail, well, that's easy. Go to Messaging -> Tools -> Options, tap and hold on Hotmail, then Delete.
Have you deleted some files from "windows\appmgr" ??
I've not deleted or changed any files at all. i've had this prob with all three handsets i've had and never been able to remove programs. even since brand new. programs include sbp pocket plus sbp gprs, tom tom, code north irc, resco explorer.
i've just done a hard reset but not installed any exrom cab's so in the next few days i might figure out whats wrong.
i'm sure i've tried to delete the hotmail account before iirc the delete option was greyed out. again i'll have a look when i'm home.
FIRST: If the files have today plug-ins, you first need to disable those plug-ins prior to uninstalling.
SECOND: Have you ever tried changing your bootsplash screen using EnableRapi.CAB? If your answer is YES, then that is the culprit.
To bypass these problems, try to install the same file again, your Universal will show a window stating you need to uninstall the program 1st, press YES, then your Universal will also ask you later where to install it. You can cancel the install if all you want is REMOVE the application completely, or install the UPDATED application if that was what your initial intention.

Any one know how to force a simple pin on EVO 4g manually. I am unable to sync with my exchange server, as EVO 4g is not supporting PIN and not prompted me for the pin option either. I had everything working fine but after doing hardreset i am unable to sync with my exchange server.
Has any else seeing this issue?
Thanks,
KITO
My wife received the same error when setting up her exchange account. Her company also requires a security pin.
The interim solution for her was to download Exchange for 2.0 by Touchdown. It seems to have ignored the security pin requirement , though the interface is a little hard to work with. K-9 didn't work either. Haven't tried Moxier, yet.
Her old Hero with Fresh 2.1.1 (Android 2.1) was able to sync with her exchange account and configure a security pin. I wonder if the htc mail application from that rom would run under the htc framework on the evo?
Same exact issue after a hard reset!!!!
This is not an exchange issue, it is an HTC issue with activesync. Try to use the ActiveSync parameters to log into gmail. http://www.google.com/support/mobile/bin/answer.py?answer=138636&topic=14299
It doesn't work!!! This SUCKS!
i got same error all i did was go back to first screen retype everything and boom worked like a charm

Thanks for the tip. We tried going through the process again in case we were in the same situation as you (several times in fact), but no luck. We even tried setting up her exchange account using htc mail on my phone (we both have Evo's). It did not work on either of our Evo's.
I think it is unlikely that her exchange provider is at fault, since they created exchange. Does your exchange provider require a security pin?
At least there are 3rd party exchange apps that work well.
Failed to create the account. Please try again later
If anyone got this error and make it it work please post the resolution. This works for me one time but after I reset the device it didn't work :-(
I am having the same issue.. Nothing works, not even touchdown. I can see in Touchdown that simple pin is being requested, but there is no way that I have found to set it up. I *think* this is why it is balking.
same error here...any1 know how to fix???
My company upgraded to exchange 2010 and now my EVO won't sync. Getting "Failed to create the account. Please try again later."
It was working just fine before they upgraded from Exchange 2007.
so i got past the account name screen what i did is i just replaced the mail.apk thats in system/app on my EVO 4G with another one from a rom i had in my hard drive
copy attached mail.apk to sdcard root
open ES explorer and go to settings to enable root explorer and file system
go to mail.apk in sdcard and hold tap to edit then copy
now go to system/app and find mail.apk thats already installed, hold and rename to mail.bak (or whatever)
then just tap and hold to copy the new mail.apk and reboot
it worked for me.. hope it works for you

The universal fix for the "Failed to create the account please try again later" while adding exchange server on android roms is
1) Add your account in Settings -> Accounts & Sync
2) In the second last step, uncheck all three options (mail, contacts, calendar)
3) Finish the configuration and your account should get created
4) Click on the created account and check back the three options (mail, contacts, calendar)
Hope this help you - I discovered this by chance and it works all the time.
DUDE big up on this I was having a damn tough time figuring this out on my exchange server and its a complex environment

I know this is a old thread but the above did not work .
We had to recreate a user on our Active Directory and Exchange 2010 and when we wiped his HTC Wildfire we cannot setup the exchange account. Keep saying it cannot create the account.
Anybody got any clue all?
I was having problems with 86000106 using ActiveSync, so I decided to use SK Tools to delete my calendar database, planning to allow the server (Google cal via NuevaSync) to overwrite everything.
However, now the calendar on my Touch Pro2 is empty, but ActiveSync seems to think it is up to date, so it won't download anything! The online calendar is fine.
Is there a flag or something to reset to force ActiveSync to download? There don't seem to be any options to force an overwrite by the server.
P.S. This is with WM 6.5 and a stock ROM.
Hi,
I have a problem.
My contacts are not updating to Exchange.
When I add a new contact via the phone (selecting the exchange account) it does not get updated to the exchange contacts. Any ideas what I would be doing wrong?
My Sync is on, background data is on.
System specs:
I am running MIUI Rom (v22) but had the same problem with opendesire before I switched. Now using Cyanogen, ROM version does not matter
Email.apk version: 2.2
Contacts version: 2.2
Now Solved:
Possible Reason: Changed ROMs too many times
Solution requirements: Exchange 2007 with Owa and internet explorer then you can do it yourself else you need to get your IT guy to do this.
Solution:
a. Go to OWA (in IE) and delete all instances of your android device from there under the mobile devices tab.
b. remove your exchange account from phone and add it again.
To test:
c. Add new contact,
d. disable sync and re-enable for exchange account from accounts screen.
repeat step D if contact doesn't get updated.
Any ideas guys???
Use the search ... there must be an topic with the same problem ... there is an link to an stock e-mail app whitch should work.
hi philj,
i only asked the question after i scoured the forum and google for about 2 hrs
I'll try and replace the email.apk and see if that helps
So I changed Roms, went to Cyanogen mod new RC.
My google account syncs two way perfectly not exchange.
Using touchdown doesn't help because you can't add contacts to it with either CAM card or from the accounts application.
So it started a couple of days ago when I noticed that my Google Maps is not downloading data at all. Google Maps used to be my great companion while trying to know my way around in a new place. I used to mark places and do what not. So, when it stopped working on mobile data, I thought let me wait till I connect to WiFi and fix whatever is bothering it. But no, it didn’t work.
I noticed in Accounts and Sync that my Google account is not in sync any longer. I try but the last sync time/date stays unchanged no matter how I try: WiFi, mobile data, internet pass-through. It just does not sync. Assuming it to be a problem with my Google account, I fire up my laptop and type my credentials on Gmail. Behold! After a wait of more than usual time, I see that my browser cant find the page. I leave the tab open, and try to enter Gmail and I am in. No glitch. I sign out and try again. Same thing: it never logs in when I hit Sign In button. I link this issue to my phone sync and forgot it. Since I work (and live too) in China, it was safe to assume that Google is under heat.
I sync my other personal Gmail account with Windows Live Mail. I noticed that I can login to my personal account (web browser on a laptop) effortlessly. When I try my other Google account on my laptop (account I use with Android), it does not log me in. I work-around it and change my password. I tried to log in but same problem.
I go to my phone assuming it will ask me for a password change, IT DOESN’T. I just doesn’t sync. I try to remove my account from Android to add it again but IT WONT DELETE or be modified. Every time I try to add a new Google account, I get the message: “Can’t establish a reliable data connection to the server” on WiFi, Mobile Data, Internet Pass-through. Nothing works and all bring up the same message. I get pissed off. So then on, I spend two days doing all this ****:
1. Create a new Gmail account and try to add a secondary account on my DHD: FAILED
2. Delete the which-was-working-earlier-account from Google (laptop) and try to sync Android: FAILED
3. Try to add account in MARKET, GMAIL and GTALK Apps: FAILED
Being a happy to go flasher and happy with RCMix Runny 1.3, I get really serious:
4. Wipe using recovery and restore to month old RCMix Bliss 1.3 nandroid backup. FAILED to sync with deleted Google account. Does not ask for change of anything. Just connection reliability error. Add new Google account: FAILED.
5. FULL WIPE and reinstall RCMix Runny 1.5. New setup. Add newly created working Google account during setup: FAILED
6. Try step 4 again after double wipe and everything. FAILED
7. Download ‘Revolution Super Wiper’ and wipe DHD twice. Install RCMix Runny 1.5. Try to add Google account: FAILED
8. Wipe with Super Wipe and install ARHD 6.1.2. Add new Google account: FAILED
9. Super Wipe, almost format SD Card, install ARHD 6.1.2 without SIM card Add Google account: FAILED
10. Give up and rant here in the forum.
Here is what works:
1. I CAN add a Google/Hotmail account in MAIL app. Everything works fine. No issues whatsoever.
2. I am connected on WiFi, Data Connection, Internet Pass-through. Checked and verified. No internet connection issues whatsoever.
Here is what I cannot try:
1. Use the Youtube workaround mentioned almost everywhere: though I did try to fire up the Youtube App.
It leaves very little to guess: if I can write about this for 10 straight minutes, I have ‘wasted’ a lot of my time trying to look for a fix and trying to fix this issue. I may be missing something terribly stupid or something really is wrong.
Who can help?
RESOLVED:
Updated the host file with a line :
74.125.93.113 android.clients.google.com
and I am through adding my new Google account.
Thank you so much... After reading a lot on web, n wasting my whole 2 days i finally got the solution.. I had to root my phone, but that was nothing to solve this problem.. thanks a lot...
I wonder what caused the issue in the first place.
This shouldn't happen by default, but I'm glad you found a workaround and I'm sure a lot of folks will find it useful.
Cheers
