Hello I found today that you cannot make a mass delete on you email application (the default one, which is coming with the device) and you have to select one by one to delete them. is there any way to get mass delete?
thank you
Do you mean the gmail app? not very clear to me.
If so this is indeed not possible, in gmail it's even very difficult to do because of a bug, but it can be done.
From gmail itself this is the trick.
Create label: something like to be removed
Use search like !label:whateveryouwantlabel select all add to the created label.
Go to the label and select all mail then delete it, otherwise you'll not be able to remove them.

Hi,
I was wondering if anybody could point me to the relevant registry entries for the mail settings for Windows Live Mobile.
I'm trying to get messages to get synchronised fully (overcoming the max default of 5000) and also for the attachments and pictures in Html mails to be downloaded automatically.
Can anybody point me in the right direction?
Thanks,
Elsral
I would love to know how to change that also if you find out how...
another question - after setting up windows live mail with my hotmail account I deleted it and can not figure out how to add it again...any help would be much appreciated.
Just found the answer to this question.............
Do this..............
Go to Windows Live inbox
click menu (bottom right corner)
Click 'tools'
Click 'manage folders'
From here you can select which folders to synchronise
If you tap and hold on each folder you can then select 'folder options'
then in the drop down box you can select 'get full copy of message' and also 'only display messages from the last X days'
Do this for any folder you want to synchronise and you're good to go
When you go back to these options at a later time it would appear that the settings you chose arent sticking, this is infact misleading as all it is doing is putting the options back to default by appearance, but clicking 'ok' after setting each folder does infact stick the setting.
Hope this is useful to you guys, first time i actually get to help someone out for once, learnt so much from these forums, keep up the good work ppl,
Neil.

Think this might also help out with that too, simply tick the inbox folder.....not sure as i havent tried it myself, good luck,

Thanks for the tip,
What about automatically downloading picture links?
thanks again,

First of all I am using manila 2.5. When you slide to contacts a button appears saying "all people". When clicking on this button you abviously open the contacts manager, but it is the old (or windows) manager. The new contacts manager however is not only nicer, but gives you all the options back to send mails from a contact card even if you have installed the SMS patch. Because of the SMS patch you don't have this option any more in the old contacts manager.
My question now is how can I make sure that the "all people" button opens the new contacts manager?
Thanks in advance

What SMS patch are you using? I used this one here, and it did not affect my contacts list. Make sure you follow all 4 of the manual steps described in that post (not just step 3). If you tried something else, then uninstall it, soft-reset and try my link.

Hi Chris,
I am using this patch and BTW the cab file 1.2 does everything what the manual settings do, but you can't click in a contact card to send a SMS, mails work, not SMS. I have discuseed this already with the author and he knows that it doesn't work.
Anyway, this is not a solution for my qustion. The new manila 2.5.1920xx has a great new contacts manager and I want to use it everywhere I can, because it is not affected by zenyee's SMS patch, it looks nicer. But apaart from making a shortcut I don't see how I can use it as a softkey in in the home screen or in the contacts (people) tab.

I'm confused about what you wrote (the bold part I highlighted). What do you mean it is "not" affected? I thought you said it is affected - i.e. the "send message" part of a contact card doesn't work. Am I just totally misunderstanding you?
In any case, you can change the left softkey in the home tab to open the Manila contacts list instead of it bringing up the phone pad. All it is is registry entries that need to be changed. But, if you have the sms patch installed, I assume you'll continue to have the same problem.
Let me know if you want to change the left softkey in the home tab anyway. I made a cab for it so that I wouldn't have to manually make all the changes every time I hard reset my phone to factory defaults.
EDIT:
Here is the cab that will make those registry changes for you.
This is the ALL PEOPLE Reg Value, restore it using any Registry editor

Let me explain what I mean using the two screen shots: one from the classic contacts manager, the other from the HTC contacts manager. If you apply the SMS patch and open a contact and click on "send message", nothing will happen. If you use the other contacts manager, you can open a contact and click on send message and it will open the windows messaging service.
Look at the answer from zenkinz, see [Tweak/App] Disabling HTC Messaging in manila 2.5 (version 1.2 Updated on 29th Sep), page 17
zenkinz said:
yes the send message from the contact will not work. It's due to a service I've disabled, and if I don't disable it, you'll not be able to send the SMS from the winmo app, so it's a catch 22 situation. I'm trying to work on a fix for that, but it's going to be tough.

Now what I was looking for is to replace the contacts manager in the contacts (people) tab. If you click now on "all people" it will open the "old" windows contacts manager, I would like that the new and better (and nicer) contacts manager would be opened.
Thanks anyway for the suggestion, but I don't want to replace the left soft key on the home screen.

Okay, so you want to keep the sms patch installed, but you want the "all people" softkey in the contacts tab to open the new Manila contacts list? And how do you then plan to open the WM contact list so that you can use the "send message" option in a contact? Do you plan on having a home tab quick link to WM contacts? I guess that would work.
I don't know where the settings are to the left softkey of the contacts tab and I don't know if that particular option is available in the registry just like it is for the home tab softkeys. I also looked into adding a quick link in the home tab, but I can't get it to open the manila contacts (only the WM contacts).
Sooo.... I think I'm out of ideas. Maybe you'll consider changing the left softkey in the home tab as you mentioned at the end of your second post (that's why I mentioned it as an option in the first place ). I don't know what you currently have set for that, but if it is still the "phone" then you can always access that by using a hardware key on the HD. Or maybe you have something in that softkey that you can place in a quick link instead.
hey!
just a short question: is it somehow possible to disable (remove!) the contact pictures that come with facebook-contact-sync?
thanks!
theo
edit: I am using InsertCoin HD-port
If it's just the Facebook ones you don't want, go into the settings of the facebook app and choose to not sync. Or if you don't want them to show at all go into the preferences of the Contact app.
I would like to sync all the facebook-contacts, but I don't want the facebook-contact-pictures coming with syncing "Facebook for HTC Sense".
the normal facebook app is not synchronising at all.
Open up the Contacts app and go through the settings to disable contact icons. To sync fully with Facebook, just go into the app, go into the settings and select sync all. If this doesn't work, go into Accounts and Sync and manually do it from there instead.

YES! thats what I want
but I can't find any "settings-menu" in contacs app ("people").
I am on InsertCoin HD Port - android 2.2.1
in contacts app I have only
-add contact
-view
-delete
-import/export
-search
-more (>blocked callers & linked contacts)
where can I find the option to disable contact icons?
THANKS!
Press the menu button on your Desire and it will bring up a little menu then just select settings. No idea what it's like on InsertCoin but should be still the same. They are there, you just have to find them. But seriously, press menu > settings.
arrr.
I feel like a real noob...I just can't find it :-(
as described above, when I am in my contacts app ("people") and press the menu-button I have only
-add contact
-view
-delete
-import/export
-search
-more (>blocked callers & linked contacts)
THERE IS NO "SETTINGS" option.
if you dont trust me I will upload some screenshots
cant imagine that there is no option like this in my HD-port...maybe I should ask in the Desire HD-forum...
nevertheless..thanks!
Sorry mate. I know what you mean now. Bloody native Android has it so you can get rid of the contact icon but Sense doesn't. I installed Sense earlier and I can't find anything. Guess you could get a 3rd party app and use that but as far as I can tell, it's not going to happen.

Hey all,
All of my email and calendar settings are correct, and I am sync'd with the Exchange/ActiveSync for work. When trying to create a calendar invite it will show correctly in my Outlook client as well. The issue I am having is when creating a calendar invite on the phone itself - it doesn't give an option to mark it as private. After you've created the event and go to view it - it shows Privacy as "default". If you click "edit" on the event you don't seem to get the option to change it.
I know there are options for rooted phones, (I searched to the best of my ability) but wanted to see about a stock GS3 (you know how it is, work phone).
Any ideas or different calendar suggestions are more than welcome. Thank you for the help.
-Kenny
Yes, I tried searching, but did not find anything specific to my question.
Basically, is there a way to add a folder to the stock email app? I would like to be able to move emails into a "Save" folder, instead of leaving them in my inbox, but I do not see any way to add/create a new folder.
I'm using all my email accts (yahoo, gmail, live, outlook.com) in Pop3.
thanks.

What you will need to do is create the folder in the email itself in a browser. Once that's done go to the email app on the phone and tap the inbox name at the top. it will give you a drop down of options, the last one should be show all folders and your new folder should be there (not required, but if you wanted to check). When you check mark an email and choose to move it, it will list all the folders available, if you don't see it just scroll and you will find it...

thanks for the reply... no go though... no additional yahoo folder showed up.. i have one in yahoo called "save"
If I am not mistaken the only way to have other folders is to use IMAP or Exchange POP does not allow for it.

You can create folders for each account, you just can't create a folder while using the combined view.
To the left of create an email it should say which inbox you are viewing. If it says combined tap it. A list will appear. Then select the account you wish to create a new folder in. (Let's say gmail) once in gmail inbox tap your menu button. (To the left of the home button). Select folders. This will show you your current gmail folders. At the top right will be a + sign. Tap that and add your folder.
You have to do that for each account. You can't move emails from different accounts into one generic folder. I have yahoo, gmail and my apple account. I can't select emails from all of those accounts and move them to one folder called personal. I have to create a personal folder for each account and move the emails from each account into its own 'personal' folder.
Hope that makes sense or helped.

Thanks for the help but it still doesn't work for me. I'm using the stock att email app from the clean rom roms.
As you can see in the screen shots, there's no plus button to add a new folder
Sent from my giant i317 Pocket Monster
I'd ask scott (from scottsroms) he is the developer for clean rom and shoupd be able to help.
If you were on the stock rom in the second screenshot there would be a + sign for adding folders.
I didn't realize you weren't on stock firmware. Sorry.

You are welcome. If you can set those mail boxes up AS IMAP or Exchange you will be able to add folders but not the POP accounts. At least I cannot add folders to POP accounts.
