Stock android email apk

Hi, anyone know if its possible to replace sense email with the stock email app?
Reason is using exchange with the sense one enabled security for the phone, meaning I need a password to unlock which is stupid. I understand needing security but why not just lock that email account rather than the whole phone!
Anyway the email app on my Nexus One doesn't have this issue, anyone know how I can pull the email apk out and replace the sense on?
Thanks

There is an alternative. There is an app available for free on the market place which removes that password prompt. I can't remember the name of it but search this forum as it's been mentioned before.

you can't replace it yet, but you can certainly install the stock one. I have it hosted on my webspace

EDIT: forgot to say, remember that this will not work with the HTC Sense mail widget.

great. Would be even better if it could handle attachments. Is it possible that the quickoffice and pdf viewer are tied to htc sense and not to native android?

Lockpicker, from the market (developed by one of the forum members, iirc) will disable the password prompt, as mentioned in another reply. I use it and it works a treat.

I used this mail.apk on my HTC Droid Incredible and it works perfectly.
HTC stock Sense Mail client does not bring in any of my emails, at least not for my company on IMAP settings.

Hi all,
I applied this application to HTC Sprint EVO none-rooted with stock Android 2.1 and it works.
This stock email.apk allowed me to resolve problem with HTC Mail for Android Version 2.00.0037.195459 not having "allow all certificates" option required to be able to Active Sync if you use self-signed certificate.
However, this version does not seem to support Exchange Calendar.
Does anybody have newest email.apk from Android 2.2 which works on 2.1 ?
They claim support for Calendar and GAL, but I don't want to upgrade to 2.2 just to get email app upgraded.
Regards
Ivan

[Q] SGSII Email.apk with exchange security removed

I'm looking for email.apk extracted from SGS2 that has exchange security bypassed.
My work policy is stupidly ridiculous and is completely inappropriate for the information in the actual emails.
If SGS2 uses standard GB email app that CM7 uses - let me know.. however, from what I've seen, it has more stuff in it - like peak/offpeak schedules, etc.
Thanks!!

Check out the thread below, it will allow you to use exchange (with mailbox administrator pin requirement) without actually setting a pin.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=655649
Downloads can be found in the last few pages of the thread, I can confirm it works for the stock Samsung galaxy S2 email application (tested on Lite'ning Rom v1.2). You can use the stock gingerbread email app also (I use this as I dont like the look of samsungs app, or that they collect your IMEI details to activate connect to exchange feature).

I just finished patching it today! Here's the link to the thread:

Miui + Exchange 2010 + Device Adminidtrator Policy help

I got an issue with the Miui and my work exchange server:
THey have Exchange 2010 with force of device administrator policy, the issui is when i try to connect to the exchange i get an error that the device dont support the security policies... is anyone having the same issue and does anyone know how to fix this.... thanks in advance.

You might have to get an exchange email app like I did; miui nor cm7 support them properly. Exchange only works as I need it to on sense roms. Maybe there's a fix but I just purchased an app to eliminate all issues since I flash multiple roms. Try deleting the exchange account and going through set up again, this time if it completes check the notification bar to see if its asking you for permission. There's usually a button you have to accept for permission.
If you rather get an app look into touchdown, enhanced email, or moxier email.

I was thinking some can mod the email app so exchange will think its getting the permission.... tricking the exchange..... but i dont know if that is possible.

pretty sure there is another mail app you have to d/l... i dont think miui comes with the htc mail and you need to get that. at least that is what I had to do when I used miui back in the day. This question may be better answered in the miui thread though.

No not possible to my knowledge. You'll probably need to switch to a sense rom if you want "real" exchange support. As I stated earlier, using aosp/miui I could never get the features I wanted with exchange so I either run sense or use my app. Sense has more of the corporate features for exchange while aosp based roms don't seem to care about exchange support much IMO.

can someone help us ... make a custom emai.apk to work with exchange 2010 and there policies, or skipping them would even be better.

Not to bring your hopes down but this has been an issue for years with aosp (miui) man. Its always lacked corp email features. I don't think anyone is going to create an email app when you could simply run sense or spend 10-20 bucks on one from the market. (Which is much cheaper than paying someone to create an app)

Can Nexus ICS email client coexist with S3's?

Hi Everyone! I'm new to this forum.
I've been using a Galaxy Nexus for a while (unrooted).
Recently, switched to a verizon Galaxy S3. The phone is unrooted and I hope to keep it that way.
One complaint I have with the S3 is the font size of the email inbox listings.
I really love to use more of that screen real estate to display more text like the client on the Nexus.
I read this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1760741 and few other threads here using
the Search function about alternatives and possible solutions.
I also found this very helpful thread by AndroidFan4
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1728308
But the instruction replaces the stock S3 email client and the phone needs to be rooted.
Is it possible for me to install the ICS Nexus email client like an app while keeping the original S3 email client?
Is it possible for me to do above while unrooted?
Any possible downside of doing above?
Thank you all... this is my first post and I hope I did it in the right place.

No it replaces it.
What exactly is it you want? I cant understand how you're describing the issue. Ans what exactly did you want to keep that the google version doesnt have?

Thanks for replying....
In short... I'm hoping to install/run the email client from Nexus/ICS as an installed app (is that possible?)
Maybe even running it off inside the /sdcard folder?
I'm just hoping that by doing that... I won't have to have my S3 rooted and I dont mind keeping the S3's native email client around.

When you try to install it it says its a system app and it will replace. I'm not sure what would happen if you're not rooted. But you could easily swap it if you were rooted.
What is it about rooting that puts you off?

It's a company phone... and technically not my property...
It will replace the system app? It will do that even if the names are different?
So if I renamed the Nexus email app to EmailNexus.apk or something..would it still replace the SecEmail.apk?

You can rename it what you want. The system does not take account of what the apk is actually called.
For example:
SecEmail.apk - Samsung modified email
Email.apk - Android standard email
Both are known to system as "Email 4.0".
Like on a windows computer, you can rename dropbox.exe to sponge.exe but when its installed, windows still knows its dropbox. If you had dropbox installed and tried to install sponge.exe, it would want to modify, repair or remove it as it is already installed.
Hope that helps you clarify.
There are 3rd party email clients in the play store. Maybe they would be worth checking out.

Exactly the answer I'm looking for.... that clarifies my question.
So either 3rd party, wait for update or just root + ICS Email.....
I'll think about it....

Exchange Mail App alternative?

All,
The default LG G3 Mail app is kinda meh....I hate the fact it does not allow me to view 'ALL EMAILS' under one, instead I have to manually toggle through my sub folders. I came from HTC One M7 and their mail app was the best I've used.
Can anyone recommend me other alternative that is not Touchdown? I hate the old looking UI of Touchdown.
I'm trying Nine Mail App now...so far so good? Any others?
Thanks!

Cloudmagic. It's a great app - very useful and it integrates with other apps you might use, i.e. Evernote, Pocket, etc.

I like AquaMail, but agree Cloudmagic is good (just hated the UI on Cloudmagic myself - specifically that it felt like I was wasting my huge screen because the app elements were huge themselves).

Take a look at Nine. I use it and like it a lot for my work's exchange email account
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ninefolders.hd3&hl=en

Yes, I'm currently using Nine now and its good. I wanted to see what other options are there. CloudMagic looks great, but don't like the fact they store our info/emails in their cloud.

Nine,I like it much more than cloudmagic

If you can get the stock KitKat email app to work with Exchange it should be a great option. Much of the same interface and goodness as Gmail, threaded emails, etc, etc. My problem is that I have now tried two phones and at least 5 custom ROMs (on my HTC One X) and I have never been able to get the stock KitKat app to work with Exchange. I have tried CleanROM, Viper, Paranoid, Cyanogen, ASOP, as soon as the OS is 4.4 or newer Exchange simply does not work. Things work with the 4.3 Email.apk and Exchange2.apk but that does not have threading. Yes, I have tried all sorts of posted workarounds, Exchange2Google.apk from various sources, etc, no luck. There are numerous threads out there from people claiming to have this problem. Must be a Google screwup because the Samsung, HTC, and LG OEM apps have absolutely no issues with Exchange under KitKat.
If anyone knows of a workaround please PM me or just respond to this thread.

Just suggesting,
I've had a lot of headaches trying to make my exchange work on android.
Auto settings never worked for me, i had to manually type the server user password and such.
My problem was that i was not typing the domain before username.
Im pointing this out because LG email app has a domain field and stock email app doesnt.
So what I do is I fill domain\[email protected] in username field on stock email app, and i use pod51015.outlook.com on server field. And it works like that. Server might be different for you.

Yeah, I have seen numerous people suggest that as a workaround but it has never worked for me. Perhaps the email server is not correct, I need to go talk to the IT guys. The annoying part is that the phone vendor email app always successfully auto-configures. It seems that everyone except Google has figured out how to do this correctly.

Well, I finally figured out how to make the stock kitkat 4.4 email app work. You can first let something like the oem email all run, then go look at the settings a day then manually reproduce them in the kitkat app. In my case I needed to specify the server as webmail.company.com and select the "all certificates" option.
However, it appears that I was wrong in my claim that the stock kitkat email apk threads. That is not the case.
Nine actually looks quite good, and just when I was wondering how they can afford to give away such a sophisticated polished app I noticed that there is a silent 7 day trial, after which it is pay to play. Seems to be worth the $10.

1st impression of Nine is very good. Paid for the $10 license less than 10 min after installing it.

It does look very good and the support is incredibly responsive. There is a bit of mystery Engrish in the menu items and some of the settings and UI are far from logical but that is a small price to pay for the functionality.

Do any of these apps integrate exchange emails into appointments on your regular calendar automatically?
Also I'm looking for one that doesn't make me put a ridiculous password on my phone.

Nine allows for this. Exchange and appointments into regular calendar. You are given the choice of applying security at the app level instead of the device level. So you only have to enter PIN when opening the app...not when unlocking the device.
There is an app called Enhanced Email that allows you to bypass security completely.
