[Q] More mail boxes - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi.I recently change my Note with Note 2.
On Note 1 I was able to add separate mailboxes for every account that I have. In Note 2 I did not found this feature. I am able to add only one mailbox icon wich contains all mailboxes.
How can I add separate mailboxes for every account that I have

Anyone, any ideea?

Are you referring to email? If so, K9Mail is the force You can also add multiple google accounts to the gmail program.

Hi,
When you configure 2 different mail ids, you get 2 different inboxes. To see them separately, tap on the inbox box on top, and you get a drop down menu giving you the choice of combined inbox and 2 separate inboxes for the 2 accounts.
Cheers!!!!

Please take a look at picture from the first post. As you can see I can add directly to desktop that mailbox that I need. If I click one of them it will bring me directly to that one. On note 1 I have that option in Widgets/ Email account. When I select that one I can select the mailbox that I want, wich allows me to have individual shortcut for each mailbox

[Q] quick question about contacts

Is there a way to combine contact list? Im still little new to android phoness (had a Touch Pro 2) and i guess it is set up to show list from your phone and any google account seperate. When i add a new contact i have to choose one list or the other....is there a way to either have both phone list synced/merge or for me to save the new contact on both list? I would really only like to deal with one list is possible. Thanks
it sets it up to show all at once. you can choose to see which account contacts to display but defualt, its all merged

Alternate email client

Can anyone suggest an alternate email client? I would lie it to do everything the stock one does but with one difference, I would like to move to the next email without returning to the inbox, i.e I am in the body of a message, I have read it and there is an arrow or something that allows me to move straight to the next or previous message, sorry for poor explanation but hopefully you know what I mean!
You can quickly switch between messages the way you describe with K9 mail (I can't post a link -- but google or a play store search for "K9 mail" will find it)
You can do the same too with the ICS Stock email client. That one was one of the best improved applications on ICS and I use that on my H1X along with the 4x4 widget to display emails on one of my home screens.
app called Touchdown
I'm using Touchdown and it works just great for me...

+1 for stock ICS. My only issue remains that the widget "freezes" / doesn't update immediately [this is an issue with ICS or the app, not the H1X]
Another +1 for Touchdown, while reading a message there are options to go to the next or previous email
Enhanced email works really well. I got mine free on the amazon daily promo a while back. It's more or less stock ics email with exchange security settings being configurable.
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA
Thanks for the responses, I will try the stock ics
+1 for K9 mail
however, this is possible in stock sense email app too... you must uncheck "threaded view" option in general settings first, then you can see "next mail" and "previous mail" options in settings when you are viewing any email (three dots options button on upper right corner) in normal view. I know, it is almost same thing with 'back' then tap on next item in threaded view as well, and shame there is no swiping possibility either, hope HTC put this feature in coming updates.
Cheers!
Only thing that puts me off k9 is the pure white with no option for a dark look!
I have emailed the dev but yet to receive a response!

Go to Global settings --> Display and select Dark option in Theme, restart the app by existing K9 and dark theme will be applied when you open K9 again.
Whenever I get emails with images in it, like emails from ATT, Target, GAP etc, the email is showing up as if being viewed in a computer, I mean i can only see a part of it in Gmail, so I have to manually resize the email so that it fits in my phone display. This is kind of an annoyance since coming from iPhone where the email with images would get resized to fit the iphone display. Just wondering if there is any email client that work like the one on the iphone ?

Kaiten
I am using KAITEN for a long time, on my third device now. I was always happy with it.
Not free, but worth the money.
I have a question about k9. I have 3 email accounts on stock email app. 2 of which i have currently set to push so within seconds i have my new email. 1 of which i use to sign up for things and email certain companies ( that i don't need to get instant contact ) and this would be daft using up my mobile data on! I have found that as soon as i set up the accounts they are immediately on push. Even tho there is an update folders option set to never!?
Would someone be able to explain how i would set my third account to be manual- ie i will have to press sync to fetch new mail.

press accounts and sync settings.......
There is no accounts and sync within k9
To reiterate i would like two accounts to be pushed to my device and one to be manual when i go into it and select "retrieve mail"
Is this possible with k9?

Long press the account, account settings, sync folders, set poll frequency to never and push folders to none.

Thanks for the help but i managed to get one account set to manual but it wasn't the one i wanted and i couldn't get it to push without recreating. This is one confusingly laid out app with its settings.
The beauty of the stock app is you can set to push and even set an on and off peak schedule and define how the app pulls in emails in those periods. Unfortunately the schedule in ics is broken which is why i was seeking an alternative.

[Q] Marking a Calendar Event as Private

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.

Stock Email doesn't show sub-folders in Exchange

No way i can view my sub-folder in Exchange with stock email. Enhanced Email shows but Enhanced Email can't sync calender with stock Calender in Jelly Bean.
I don't have this problem when i was with Note 1 ICS. Jelly Bean problem.
there is you have to click the folder icon it will then drop down.

Nope. When I click on show all folders there's no way to see sub folders in the inbox. I have half a dozen client folders in my inbox, and the server sorts new mail into them. The crappy part is I can see them when I go into the folder settings....
Yes it does work

if you haven't done so already, tap the sub-folder you want to sync and use Menu-Sync options to set the sync options; e.g., Peak, Off-peak and Period to Sync Email. it's true they won't appear in your top level inbox, but you should be notified via the notification window. that's the way it works for me. from the notification window, you click the email and it will take you to the folder. i use this setup on my Junk E-Mail folder due to our company's strict filtering process. hope this helps!
EDIT: added screenshot of menu options.
Exchange question, how can I access the contacts that are in Exchange. For example is their a Global Address Seach?

the only way is to click in the to field in email. if you just start typing names they will auto fill
Is there a way to show new email - notification # of new email in sub folders (ex 1 or 2) instead of showing all email # in there?

Any way to choose one account to show calendars from?

I have multiple accounts on my phone that are linked through the google family feature. Due to this, they all have the calendar named "Family" on them. I have tried clearing the cache on the calendar apps and zooper, and I have tried un-syncing the calendars from my phone. I'm still seeing the event in triplicate.
Is there anyway to set up zooper to where only one account for calendars is shown? Or would it just be easier to create a new calendar on my main account, not named "Family", to where I have the events saved?
Due to being a new user I cannot post links for the image, and I do not see a way to upload the screen shot.
Edit/update: I managed to find a work around to where I logged into the other accounts on my computer and chose to hide the calendar labeled "Family".
