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

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 already Searched, MY ANSWER is not there.
I'm running Caulkin's 1.4, I removed sense (via his .zip).
After everything was up and running I opened ADB and removed a couple applications I didn't want, such as friendstream and rss.
One of the items removed was Mail.apk because I have always used K9 mail instead. I remove the same list of apps every time I install a Rom, never had a problem.
that is until today. For personal reasons I need to use the stock mail app instead of K9, however I cannot figure out, or find a way here to make it install.
If I copy the system apk... Mail.apk to my sd card and try to install, it gives me final message "Could not be installed".
Can anyone help me with some guidance of how I can do this? Or is it possible?
Disregard, Got it!
So I am rooted and running the latest skyraider. I removed friendstream and the widget from my phone a while ago. I also still have the facebook still synced to my phone. I have been researching this a lot and still haven't figured out what I need to do. What I can tell is i have this constant sync icon in my notification status bar practically all the time. When I go into accounts & sync nothing in there is actually syncing. I can click on "cancel sync" and the sync icon will go away for a few minutes then it is right back there again a little while later. When I go into accounts, running services there is "Facebooksyncstreamservice" at the bottom which when I click it to stop it brings me directly to the accounts and sync settings menu. I click cancel sync and again it stops for only a short period of time.
After reading a lot on the internet and forums it seems like if you are using FB on your phone you should also keep friendstream installed as well otherwise you could get this constant sync icon which I seem to be receiving as a result of removing friendstream.
So i found the friendstream apk on line and downloaded it to the computer to install on my phone. Hooked up the phone via the usb cable installed the apk to my sd card then tried to install it via OI file manager. Says it begins to install then just aborts the install and says "File not installed" or something to that nature.
I have also read that you can only install this by using adb push which I have no idea how to do. I have searched but have come up empty with a step by step guide at using adb push method.
I have also found another write up where someone describes using root explorer to move the apk to the system>app folder then install through there which results in the same "File not installed" message once completed.
Basically I have no other recourse but to turn to the infinite knowledge base of XDA to possibly ask for help on either 1. finding a way to deactivate this constant sync icon or 2. reinstall the friendstream apk which I believe will stop this constant sync icon (fingers crossed).
Any help would be appreciated and thank you in advance for anyone that can offer some help or incite. If anyone is going to respond to this thread with negative comments and remarks, please refrain as I am only looking for assistance and not useless time wasting comments. Thanks
Any ideas here??
I am also very interested in the outcome of this question, I have done the same deed as you but on a stock thunderbolt rom. If you find out any ways to fix this please do inform me.
Take the friendstream apk and use root explorer to move it to the /system/app folder. Then long press on it and give it the same pernissions as the other apks rw-r--r-- and then long press the file again and change the owner and group to root. Do not try to install it just reboot the phone and it will install it self. You should also restore the widget the same way.

Thanks for this, I just used one of my CWM's and ran TiBu to restore everything bc I had a little time on my hands, but this would have been much easier and less time consuming!

Keep Calm Chive On
Thanks to shiftr182 for sharing the flashable file. I followed his instruction and was able to get AOSP email back on my TW rom.
** I'm only distributing the work that has been done by others **
1. Use a file manager and delete SecEmail.apk and SecExchange.apk from your system [System >> App]
(I use Titanium Backup and made a copy of those two files)
2. Flash the attachment. (I made a nandroid backup just in case)
3. After you reboot, go to you apk manager and clear the data on email and exchange then add your account(s).
Been looking for this apk. Muchas gracias!
Proper job, innum bey.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda developers app
Sorry for bumping an old thread but I had got the email to work using another method from another thread (install app in system>app with root explorer, I also found another way to do it on another thread that I found before I found this one .... after all was done my email unread number said 22 all the time and never changed. I tried everything and nothing fix it.
Found another thread, started fresh, (renamed original email/exchange apts with .bak instead of deleting it) same problem here.... unread count but this time is says 19. Mind you it shows 19 unread emails on the email app icon in the app drawer and when I drag it to the home screen and I did not even set up my emails yet so it would have no way of knowing how many unread emails I have. very odd.
Finally started fresh and flash the zip from this thread which worked now it says 33 unread emails all the time. Can't figure out why this unread email count shows up even without any unread emails.
Anyone have any idea how to fix this?
Thanks.
Works Great on 4.4.3
Awesome! I've been unable to get corporate email to sync since I got off of a stock ICS ROM. I was still having problems with the latest 4.4.3 ROMs. This solved it. Thanks!
Os is rooted stock build with sd write enabled. It's my mom's tablet she only uses it for basic surfing and email with family and it's been running ship shape for about 2 years now. I only rooted it to regain sd access and xposed it to kill ads on youtube and apps but just recently the stock android email app has started refusing to download attachments namely (and I haven't tried with pdfs or audio files) pictures. It shows the picture size in kilobytes and I hit preview in the email app, it does its thing with the downloading progress bar and proceeds to show me the attached image below. It also shows this within gallery. I have since moved over her address to the Gmail app and it works fine downloading attachments and saving them to the gallery correctly.
So what gives? Like I said it is rooted but the only things I've done are what I said and she hasn't done anything. I tried removing and re adding her account and quintripple checked the sync settings and download attachments setting with no success. Any ideas on what the issue is? I'm hoping to avoid a reflash but if I have to I will twrp it and get a nandroid back up of everything just in case and proceed to only restore user data afterwards once a reflash is successful. But I want to avoid that. I've also cleared data on the email app only to have to re add her email account with no success in downloading attachment like it used to before. And btw it's been rooted all this time nothing has changed other than her email app suddenly doing this when it was fine a week or 2 ago
