I liked the stock email app on the galaxy S2, I figured that once I got my s3 that email would be similar, but it's not, it is much much worse. Is there any way to install the old mail app from the S2 on the S3?
I have tried the alternative email programs from the play store and I just don't like them.
Please help!
Thanks a million.
Enhanced Email...
I may not be correct, but.... I believe the GS2 used an email program built by Seven.
You may look and find an apk for Seven email+IM that should be similar. I personally cannot find a download link for it.
If you go their website, they do have a BETA Android program. http://community.seven.com/download.php Again, not sure if this is exactly what you are looking for, but may be worth a shot.
Edit: It appears they abandoned Android in the last year or something and the only client they currently are shown as making is the one for Hotmail's Android client. Sorry.
Gmail
Its just fine...

Another recommendation...
K-9 Mail is IMO a good email client. I don't know if it's one of the alternatives you tried and didn't like.
It's larger that Enhanced Email, but cheaper... (free)...
I'm new or I'd post a link to the Play store.
(I have no affiliation with K-9 Mail whatsoever.)

I'm going to try and push the SGS2 email.apk and exchange.apk later this evening. Please feel free to try it first if you have access.
I have been using Secure9 Mail for 6 months. And it has built-in encryption (if you want to use it).

Thanks for the suggestions guys. I've tried all the free email apps on the play store and none of them really did it for me. Finally tried enhanced email too and that is a step in the right direction, hopefully I don't have any troubles from it.
p.s. I have the Gmail app, but I need to access my work email somehow.
Try touchdown by nitrodesk. It's one of the best

Only one I found I liked was Inomail,
What about the AOSP Google email? I think it looks great and works very well.
yea if you need to check an exchange acct at work I usually go between nitrodesk touchdown and moxier mail. One of those should be perfect for you I prefer touchdown really.

do you have the apks for AOSP?
the rom NoAOSP http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1759245
uses the email client from google nexus; a user there said it was the only email client they've used on the S3 that allowed them to connect to their work email.
perhaps download that rom, open the zip with 7zip and pull out the email.apk and put it on your phone.
try to install it normally, if not you may have to copy it to system/app with root explorer (reboot afterwards)
might be worth a look

In the SGS2 email you could make it inverted and control font size from the app.
I pushed the old app every way i could. No joy. May try a flashable zip, but I can't see that making much difference... I guess it would have to be ported.
What email apps are Nexus 7 owners using?
I cannot figure out how to get Nexus to auto-complete email addresses in the stock email app for either gmail or a non-gmail account. is this justmissing or do I need to turn something on?
Any alternatives?
I use mail droid. It has a free and a paid option. Best ive tried so far.

Do any of these do IMAP search on server?
I use Gmail, it auto-completes anything I have in contacts. I use to hate gmail on a mobile device, but I like it on the N7 better than K9, which I was using.
I use K9 on my Nexus 7, not perfect by any means, but, far better than the stock email client. I had problems with attachments using the stock email client.
With K9, I can open, save, view attachments etc., which is what I wanted.
Still searching for a better one ...............
Gmail has everything I need.
Yeah, I'm thinking of adding K9, it actually attaches and opens zip files as well as anything else you want to throw at it. Gmail sucks with attachments.

I've been using K9 for the last...three?... years now and I just love it... in my opinion the best one out there. I'm managing six IMAP accounts with it and it works just flawlessly... fast, reliable, I love it... :good:

Just tried k9 on my n7 and works great. Much more configurable than gmail. Just needs an on screen send button and it'd be perfect.
Edit: Found great app for a home screen shortcut to compose new mail, works with k9 or gmail.

I use stock gmail for my gmail and nitrodesk touchdown for exchange. I don't have a problem running 2 different apps for 2 different accounts.
Enhanced e-mail is an app that is close to the standard email app in Android 4.2.1. It has more options.
I use it because this app has an option to synchronize the trash.
Emptying the thrash by selecting messages one by one is no longer needed.

After being a user of Tablet Talk for a year now:
1: no issues with WiFi/Bluetooth not connecting
2: no ass ugly UI
3: big developer with longtime user support and base. This is from Koush, as in Clockwork Mod and many other great apps.
4: Syncs to Tablet but the subscription also syncs to the browser and GTalk if that's your thing...
All in all I have been using app by Koush for over 2 1/2 years now and never had an issue, he deserves my $5 per year
This app is awesome well deserving of 5$ a year. The ui isn't hideous and it works ALL of the time.

Spam pushing app
I installed this yesterday evening on my phone. and then my tablet.
not 30 minutes or so after and nearly all night i get spam pushed google email address and sms to my phone... After uninstalling the app it stopped going to my phone NOW My email this morning had 13 messages everything from sex chat invites to insurance and home loan sales companies..
Is there some terms i did not read that says it will do this. Is there a hidden or secret settings.. IM VERY ANGRY Because the only way this can be happening is my phone number and google information given out. Makes me quite concerned about what rom manager might be picking up now.. THIS IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE .. I would think a Developer of this caliber would not do this ...
PLEASE Respond rom manager......

Thou at the same time i have cwm premium and thou i have the adds turned off im still getting them.. So maybe its how they do business....
when i check my email if there are more i will report the app to GOOGLE OVER THE PHONE... ..

Sorry to hear that, I tried to search tablet SMS on gplay and the top result was for mysms and my mysms tablet, when I searched tabletsms up came the OP version,l.
After seeing your post I decided to try mysms, it only needed my mobile number and a password nothing else, it took a few minutes before syncing sms' on first run to my N7, but it works great, don't think it supports Bluetooth, for me this would be an extra luxury than a necessity at this moment in time.

Does Koush's app still add @desksms.com email addresses to all your contacts? I tried it when he first started posting it to forums and it took forever to get all my contacts cleared up.

I dont think Koush would ever do something like this. Im not calling you a liar or anything but I have been using apps developed by Koush and ClockworkMod for years as well as using DeskSMS now for a few days and i dont have an issue.
I would contact him before saying that he did something that may or may not even be his fault. Trust me with the access that Rom Manager has or Clockwork Recovery has, spamming a user with sex messages is the least of the damage he could inflict... just saying
*could it be you signed up for something else and not Koush's (ClockworkMod) TabletSMS?

If you hit the dreaded "sync Google contacts" button.
I've been using DeskSMS for the last year and a half, and the only "spam" I get is if I misconfigure it.
Since Sense 6's native messaging app doesn't have a built in popup notification (like CM, Handcent, Textra, ect), I'm looking for an alternative. Any suggestions? Every third party app I've tried is really outdated, and doesn't mark text as read because Kitkat 4.4 only allows the default messaging app to do that.

I used to cry out for people like HTC and Apple to include popup reply windows for SMS a few years back. Don't really care any more, though this might be because I use Whatsapp more than SMS. That includes a popup quick reply windows though and I never use it. The last one I did use was Chomp but that looks a bit dated now too. Suspect that development of SMS apps is slowing for whatever reason.

I did not see you mention GoSMS. Two popup options: the actual popup box, or a contact icon. Once you click-on the icon, the popup box shows up.

Don't have the M8 yet but I currently use 8SMS on my S3 which does the trick, although i am on CM so I am not sure if it will do the same with Sense. I am hoping it will as I want this feature as well.
8SMS is great in general. Hope it works.
SMS popup app doesn't work? It works perfect for me on 4.4.2 using hangouts.

That's funny.
I was just searching for something to replace yahoo mail, which I've been using for a while but is always buggy.
Last night I was messing around in the play store and came up with blue mail.
It couldn't be easier to set up and so far seems like a good alternative.
I'll give it a day or two and see if I still like it.
