Hello All,
Has anybody gotten the T-Mobile email trigers to work after upgrading to WM6? I am not having any luck. I am getting the trigger SMS messages, but they are not transparent and do not trigger outlook to send/receive. This is by far, for me at least, the biggest drawback to the upgrade.
Any help appreciated.
You could try PushEffect to handle the trigger SMSs:

I just added them as email accounts in Outlook.
These are the settings:
pop3/smtp: myemail.t-mobile.com
user: yournumber:1 (depending on how many accts you have... they go :1, :2...)
pw: the password for your account
so like user: 1234567890:1
pw: xdadevrocks

Yes, I added them in this way too. I was even able to intall the myemail.t-mobile.com application that will retrieve the settins for you (the same one that came with WM5). that is not my problem. my problem is with the triggers. they are not triggering. the trigger SMS messages come, but they just sit in my inbox and do not trigger outlook at all.
I finally called T-Mobile tech support to ask what the deal was. Well, the tech informed me that the trigger functionality was removed from WM6. Bummer, triggers were as close as non exchange users could get to true push email. Now I have to decide if I will go back to WM5.

Use the MyEmail app to setup the account for myemail.t-mobile.com, sign in to my T-mobile and disable alerts (stops text messages), change the account settings in your phone "Automatic Send/Receive" for how often you want to update (I set mine for "Every 15 minutes"). It's not immediate updates, but should handle most cases.

PushEffect works beautifully! I just set up the account in My T-Mobile E-Mail to get my GMail, and set up the account on my phone that checks the My T-Mobile E-Mail. Then set up PushEffect to monitor that account, with the following settings:
Activate when SMS sender area contains:
[leave blank]
Activate when SMS body area contains:
ID:LOGINGIVENBYTMOBILE
For example, a t-mobile e-mail login could be 2223852434:1, so the SMS body area would be set to: ID:2223852434:1
Also make sure that SMS "Alerts" are set to ON for that account on the MyT-Mobile website.
I have had my TP2 for a few days now and i love it, except for the fact that I cannot send or receive email from my gmail account
I can access the internet fine, and use the youtube app fine, but whenever i try to send an email or hit send/receive i get this error message
"CANNOT CONNECT WITH CURRENT CONNECTIONS SETTINGS. TO CHANGE YOUR SETTINGS, TAP SETTINGS"
When i set up the email the only things i was required to supply were my email address and password....so i am assuming the problem lies with the way my handset is trying to access the gmail account, ie. trying to use wifi or something? (i dont have wifi, so i will only be using the "unlimited" interent provided with my t-mobile UK tariff)
has anyone else had this problem or do they know how to get around it as i have finally got myself a decent handset where i can (allegedly!) check my email on the move, but yet i somehow cant get it working?!!
Ihave tried both hard and soft resets to get this sorted but it just wont work and i feel like pulling my hair out!
n
I know it's not much consolation but it just worked for me...
I have a SIM free TP2 and UK T-Mobile Web'n'Walk.
Incoming mail server is imap.gmail.com
Account type is IMAP4
Username is my full gmail username
Outgoing mail server is smtp.gmail.com
outgoing server requires authentication is ticked
All this was set via automatic configuration.
Hope this helps,
Richard
This is what i have done to recieve and send Gmail trueout the standard email client on my Pro II.
First of all you have to enable imap at your gmail account which you can find under settings.
Then on your phone do the following settings.
- make an new account in your email client
- fill in your gmail adress
- fill in your name
- fill at incomming mail "imap.gmail" and account type "imap"
- fill in your account name (gmail adress) and password
- fill at outgoing mail server smtp.gmail.com
and those two checkboxes must be checked
- auto recieve and send is up to you
hope this will help you
ther's a known bug in windows mobile poutlook...
sometimes the autoconf for gmail doesn't work...(i had the same issue on my omnia)
you only need to enter the account details by hand..
to do that, in the first screen where your address is asked, enter [email protected]
leave it without the final m.
after that fill in manually all the account details, then when finished edit the account and put that m in the domain...
that should work...at least in my omnia was the only way to get gmail working...
I used this guide en it works perfectly

hi, thanks or all the replies, most appreciated.
however, i have now established that i can get my gmail account working - but only over wifi!?!? when the wireless router is turned off i get the same message as before, so there must be a setting or something that is telling my TP2 to look for a wireless connection when performing a send/receive, rather than using the "internet" (if thats the right term) that is included in my contract..AAAARGH...
i have had a look but cannot find any settings for this so i must be going mad?
can anyone shed any light on this for me before i go mad??!!

Disable proxyserver, don't have the place where you can find this. I have a dutch rom
I have a gmail imap connection on my HTC Touch that was working great but has failed to connect for the past two hours or so.
I found that to change from Download 30 Days to 7 days and it worked fine.
Oddly I returned my TP2, and switched back to my VarioV, same problem (had worked fine until then). New TP2 is now here, so will start with 7 days and try expanding to 30 days later.

does anyone know how to do this? i cannot find this option anywhere?
is there any way i can see how my tp2 is trying to receive data from my gmail account, ie. if it is trying to use internet or wifi?!?
also, does anyone have any details for the settings that their tp2 (on t-mobile UK) is using when trying to retrieve email (not by wifi)??!
i'm also assuming that t-mobile wont be able to help me as i got my phone/contract via a third party and t-mobile themselves dont seem to stock the phone themselves....
I had this problem, it drove me nuts until I worked out what it was, if i was already connected it would work but it would not establish its own new connection.
To fix it go into the email settings for the account, then select:
Edit Account Setup
Next
Next
Next
Next (Outgoing (SMTP) mail server screen)
Click the “Advanced Server Settings” Link
In the “Network connections” it defaults to “The Internet” but if you have gone through the “Connection Setup Wizard” when you first installed your SIM it renames the connection, in my case to “T-Mobile Internet”.
Change “Network Connections” to the correct one i.e. “T-Mobile Internet”
hey presto, you can now get your emails
hope this helps everyone

if the connection has a proxy in the setup, than you can use that connection only if selected like above...
if you leave "The internet" the proxy settings are ignored...you have to select the exact connection..but this will prevent the gmail to connect with wifi
I've always had my work email (Exchange) connected to my Evo, no matter which ROM I was running. Had it hooked up with CM6 RC1, no problems. Had a bit of trouble getting it set up with CM6 RC2, but was able to get it working with a fake domain, which took me to the manual setup screen. All is well, except...
Now I'm getting random notifications that Exchange needs security settings changed. I can click on the notification and it's not telling me specifically what I need to enable. Under security in the settings menu, Email is set as a device administrator (can't remove it from there or it disables my account.) The thing is, even without security enabled, I'm still able to send and receive email.
I know on my old WinMo phone, Exchange automatically enabled PIN locking of the screen - but it's not enabling the security that it needs to here. Any idea what I need to change?
I had that notification for a long time..i went into my OWA through the web and had to delete all my previous devices to my exchange account and re setup my exchange and havent seen that notification since..
I'm having trouble getting Push Email working in Jelly Bean 4.1.1 without Auto Sync on.
With ICS (and all previous versions of Android 2.2 and 2.3) I was able to still have my emails pushed to the phone without having Auto Sync enabled. For some reason it own't work in JB.
I don't want to have Auto Sync as i try to turn as much off as i can to save battery life.
Has anyone heard of something being changed on JB to not allow Push to work without Auto Sync.
Thanks in advance for any info provided.
I initially had the same problem. Here's what worked for me, no guarantee it will work for you. When setting up my account I cleared the default port setting and just left it blank. Then my work server set the proper number.
Been having the same issue.
Now trying your potential solution and will see.
Update:
This does, oddly, seem to have worked.
Re-Update:
Nope. Back to non-functioning.

Seconded.
This worked. The battery on my Nexus S was drained in 5 hours of stand-by yesterday and the battery usage was 70% Exchange. Checked my work email via the pc and I had about 50 emails that didn't get to my phone.
Found this thread, went to my exchange settings and removed the "0" from the port setting, clicked save and voila, emails rolling in fine.
There is no way to make it work!!!
:crying::crying::crying:
I am desperated. A couple of days after installing JB 4.1.1 the automatic official update from Google, the Exchange email account suddenly gave up working. After deleting and recreating several times the account the email still could not be synchronized. I configure everything in automatic option but it does not work. I delete the port number and leave it blank but it does not work.
I always get the same error inside the Exchange application with emails previously synchronized, that the application cannot connect to the server but the server is up and running and the configuration is correct. When I delete the accound and recreate once more again and open Exchange app it remains long long time waiting for sync, but it never syncs.
Sometimes when trying to tweak the configuration I get the system message that the account is not found.
It drives me crazy. After trying everything explained above several times I finally succeed to synchronize by activating the general sync button in the main desktop applet (the one for Energy saving which has GPS, WiFi, screen light level, Sync and Bluetooth) and waiting for the system to ask me for reactivating the Security - Device Manager options to allow the security policy specified by the email server.
Do I have to set always the general sync button on?. It will drain the battery, won't it?. Why suddenly it looses the connection and I have to make all this mess to recoup the connection to Exchange server and sync again my corporate email?

I have done the same with no luck either.
I currently have the trial version of Touchdown installed to use for syncing in the meantime, but that's not what I want.
Yes, the sync button will drain battery, and I have gotten Exchange to work with that turned on. I want my simple push email to always function regardless of the system background data sync being on or off - like it used to.

By now it's still working fine. Let's cross fingers. But always with Sync button on. My conclusion is that also we must be careful with the device manager option the security settings. It allows Exchange to access system security settings. If not, the system perhaps blocks the synchronization. Battery does not look to drain much faster than before with Sync button off.
Exchange Email on Jelly Bean 4.1.1 - Waiting for Sync forever
today I got my new galaxy nexus phone with JB 4.1.1 and I am facing the same issue as mentioned by other members. I have tried the following and none of them have worked so far
I am able to connect to my exchange server but its the "waiting for sync" that's not working
1 - removing and recreating my corporate email account more than once
2 - removed the PORT and let the app set it for me didn't work
3 - went to settings and did sync from there for my account didnt work
4 - enabled auto sync and that didn't work
I'm not sure everyone is understanding the proper use of Syncing. Basically yes your account has to have Sync on. The other option is only the Method it will use. For example if you choose "Automatic (Push)" that just means that when your work server gets an email it will push it to your phone (i.e. your phone doesnt check at all... it waits for communication from the server which is the best battery saving sync option). So if you turn Sync completely off your phone will no longer receive the push emails (you can turn sync off on all other accounts).
Removing the port will likely not do anything. It will either just use the default (443) or not use one and it wont work at all. As an example I have a hotmail calendar that I share with my girlfriend (we keep our social stuff in it). When I create the account I choose not to sync anything but the calendar and set it to "Automatic (Push)". This means that my phone should almost never use battery on that account until one of us adds something to it.
If it worked in ICS it was likely a bug that was fixed in JB. When you turn Sync off it means no syncing will happen at all (push or otherwise)
My problem with exchange is.
Setting up configuration = all ok
Server verifies = all ok
But my company requires a security verification through pin. In ICS it automatically made that security option available.
In JB I'm stuck in exchange setup (name, signature, ...)
Synchronizing loop
(send from Nexus S JRO03E)

Same issue here.. It just doesnt show the menu to activate PIN and the email doesnt sync... Need help!!!
Can you not just go ahead and set a PIN before trying to Sync? If its already there the phone wont ask you to do it
any fix for this Jelly Bean bug? It just waiting for the sync.
I use 3 separate exchange accounts and dont have this bug at all. I'm not even really sure what it is. Each time I add my Exchange account right after I click "Activate" I get a little notification that says I need to update my security and I put in my PIN and away I go
I had the same error because of limited internal storage. This is what happened:
1. After update to the new OS, all the apps automatically downloaded and installed on the internal storage.
Note: You may want to check your internal storage first to make sure that you have the same issue [Settings->System Settings->Storage].
2. Sometime after that my email stopped syncing.
3. I did reboots and add/delete many time, but still got the "waiting to sync" message.
What worked !
1. Settings -> Manage apps ->Downloaded (scroll left).
2. Click on individual apps and then click "Move to USB storage".
Once space was freed on the internal storage, everything started working.

Nexus S runnning 4.1.1 stock
This worked for me:
remove port in the incomming server setting
set update to "push"
enable the SYNC button
I used to manualy sync, whenever i needed to access my cooperate mail.
Good luck!
I've tried the stock exchange email app a few times and found it to be overall fairly good. however until I can have the inbox show mail from all folders then it's useless as a mobile email client. I cant be going into each folder (I have 30ish separate email folders with rules on exchange that automatically puts mail from x client into x folder)
I this something that can be done or am I missing a trick. also having to go into each folder and set it's sync options individually is a bind. I'd really love to use the stock client as it looks and behaves far better than (touchdown) but without a unified inbox from all the email folders it's a no no.
Other than that the exchange client works perfectly for me on 4.1.1 (AOKP)
Hi all.
Same issue as others and bk13 After the JB update, Exchange stopped working, as well as Hotmail connection.
I can get the set up done like another here, it is confirmed, but gets stuck at Waiting for Sync endless circle. It is set up to automatic (push) and sync email.
I tried the leave port blank, and it filled in with the 443 default port.
Please help.
I can't get the hotmail to work either, and I see from other forums, it is an issue. what a pain.
Found this on another forum and it work for me. I will see if it will let me set up my Hotmail account now.
It worked for my Hotmail account also. I had to go back and re-check the Auto Data Sync but it worked. Finally, back to normal...
I've found a solution here. Credit goes to Keith Hurst.
JellyBean 4.1.1 Sync | AVForums.com - UK Onlineolution:
Settings --> Data Usage --> Menu --> and check Auto Sync Data
Try setting up Exchange account again and you'll see the prompt to activate a Device Administrator this time.
Thanks,
no connection
when I add my exchange account with the correct settings I do not get a connection?
when I use the same credentials on a Samsung Galaxy SII or SIII instead of my own Samsung Galaxy Nexus it works fine???

I had similar issues with weird behavior of the push and sync and I installed Emoze Push client which gives me the ability to push any type of email ,obviously Exchange and IMAP but even POP3 which is very limited email protocol.
I've done benchmarks with the stock ICS email client and with several third party clients like Touchdown, Moxier, K9 and I find that Emoze has the advantage in almost every aspect.
Push notification is stable and fast ,less than 60 sec.
Battery consumption is low ,I’m able to work in push mode without charging for 22 hours.
I’m quite a heavy email user so it was kind of a surprise to me because I used to have 6-8 hours max with only one account working in push.
I have 5 email accounts which is about 100-200 email per day so no kidding ,this one really improved my life ,I’m less paranoid about my battery.
Other features which are quit useful are the security options that allows you to find the device location by SMS or email
and also to remote wipe or block by SMS.
This is cool because you don’t need PC connected to the internet to get the job done ,you can simply send SMS to your phone number to activate the security process.
Hi, thanks for reading this.
I’d like to know more about the stock email app that is pre-installed on my Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (a light orange envelope icon called "Email").
This is in relation to viewing emails on the MMI screen (Multi Media Interface) in my car (an Audi S3). Audi are well known for the technology that comes in their vehicles. If you connect a mobile phone via Bluetooth you can view emails and text messages on the screen on the dashboard. I’ve paired my Galaxy S7 Edge to the vehicle and can see my text messages and my emails on the screen on the dash. So far so good.
THE ISSUE
I can only view emails for one email account on my car screen but I have several email accounts configured on my phone in the same email app. E.g. I have a Hotmail account, GMail account, IMAP account and an Exchange account all configured in the stock email app.
I’ve figured out why this is happening, I just need a solution. The problem is the stock email app on my Samsung S7 Edge forces you to make one of the email accounts a "default”. My Audi S3 car interface is only showing emails for the default email account.
Before my Galaxy S7 I had a HTC One M9. When I connected that to my car I could view emails for all of the accounts configured in the stock HTC email app on the screen in my car. E.g. in date order my car screen would show a few hot mail emails then some Gmail emails then a few IMAP emails etc.
WHAT I'VE TRIED
I thought installing a different email app (client) on my Galaxy S7 might work. I installed BlueMail and added my email accounts. The BlueMail app has a unified mode that shows all emails from all accounts in date order. This is what I'm trying to achieve on my car screen. BlueMail doesn’t force you to set a default account so I was hopeful this might work. One of the issues I knew I would face was getting rid of the stock Samsung Email app on my Galaxy S7. You can’t uninstall the default email app and you can’t disable it either. I therefore deleted all my email accounts from it, switched notifications off etc. etc. On the Galaxy S7 you can specify a default SMS app and a default browser but you can’t specify a default email app. To overcome this I installed an app called "Default app manager". When I ran it there was no default email program so I set BlueMail as the default.
I went to my car, completely un-paired then re-paired my phone. There was no emails at all on the screen in my car. Just my text messages. The reason for this must be because my vehicle is looking for the stock email app which doesn’t have any email accounts configured.
As soon as I re added my Gmail account to the stock Samsung email app, switched Bluetooth off then back on again my Gmail emails appeared on the Audi MMI.
rSAP
For phones to connect to modern cars they need to have rSAP (Remote SIM Access Profile). The Samsung Galaxy S7 has rSAP. I’ve read that Audi car phones query rSAP profiles by full service id class list and / or profile descriptor list.
This is where I need help. Mobile phone manufacturers obviously have a way of specifying what the default email app and SMS app are on their phones which means my vehicle is looking for these manufacturer-specified default apps as part of the pairing process.
I was confident that if I could instruct my car that a different email app was the default app I would be able to view emails from multiple accounts on my car screen.
I’ve trawled Audi forums and other car forums for days looking for a solution. I’ve seen posts from BMW drivers who use Samsung Galaxy phones who report the same issue. They have several email accounts configured in the same email app on their Galaxy phone but can only view emails for a single account on their car screen. They also say the email account they see is whatever the default email account is within the stock email app.
Someone suggested instead of using the car forums I should try an Android forum so here I am.
Are there any Samsung Galaxy phone users who can view emails on their car screen for multiple email accounts? Like I say, this wasn’t a problem with my HTC One M9 so it’s got to be a Samsung Galaxy email app issue.
Thanks for reading this post : -)
