Hello All,
I currently have a Samsung S4 Active KK, Towelroot, etc. I bought a refurbished E985 ATT for my wife and liked it so much I bought one for myself. However, I have one HUGE problem, everything works but the stock Email program only allows for MICROSOFT exchange and I simply need it for my corporate exchange (Lotus). The stock email program on S4 active works flawlessly with my corporate exchange and I was able to locate the APK but it won't install in the Optimus.
I am rooted via towelroot, have ES file explorer and tried everything to get this APK working, but I keep getting the dreaded "not installed" error. Any suggestions?
Also, why doesn't the Optimus Pro connect to exchange servers? Every program/email I've tried connects to my server, authenticates, then simply says waiting to sync and never syncs.
The other other is flashing the Email app (.ZIP) via CWM or Safe strap?
I really want to use this phone instead of my S4, but without email, it's useless to me. Thanks for your help....

I am in desperate need of a solution...please help.
The company I work for uses Microsoft Exchange Server for our Email Service and before I rooted my Droid Incredible I was able to use the Exchange Activesync service on my phone to sync with my work's email without a problem.
Now that I rooted my phone I receive an error telling me I am unable to connect to the exchange server. I have already attempted to use "K-9 Email Client" and "Lockpicker" to see if I could connect. No luck... I believe the issue is with a missing certificate but I am not sure. I have already contacted my IT Department at my work which ended up being useless cause they are unaware of how to locate the certificate for our email service.
Anyways if anyone could shed some light on this please do...Thank you!
Also Facebook does not sync contacts, the live feed works fine.
I don't really mind this cause I'm using "FB Sync" to get my friends pictures but I do miss having all of Facebook contacts shown in my Contacts List.
Phone: HTC Incredible
Rom: ClockworkMod 2.5.0.1
Kernel: 2.6.29-Hydra-ocuv-ov-n-v07
unroot with the ruu (that should be somewhere close in the dev section)
and re root with unrevoked3. i have to say, ive tried all the roms except pmf yasr and red and blue, and ive never had all these wierd errors everyone had. my theory is that all the incredibles are made differently. some are more resistant to modding and rooting and others arent. but anyway, just ruu and apply unrevoked3. and be sure to backup contacts and data before ruu

not sure about the email thing, but for your contacts try ensuring that Facebook contacts are selected to show up by going to your contacts list and hitting Menu > View and make sure you have Facebook checked.

Ya I did that and although the option to show Facebook Contacts is available...the list is empty and says I have zero friends. Which is wrong I have over 300 Friends. So the issue has to be with the ROM.
Thread moved to General.
Guys I give up!!!
I've tried two ROMs the one provided by Unrevoked3 by default and JagerRomSense both had the same problem - No Exchange Service and No Facebook Account Sync. I've decided to go back to the Original setup and just wait till the Official Froyo OTA comes out for Verizon. Cause I can't stand having issues with my phone. If you have any comments let me know what you think...Thanks!

This is not a ROM, this is your new recovery which you probably flashed via the unrevoked tool. The unrevoked tool does not provide a ROM, all it does is root your phone and flash Clockwork mod recovery.
I have a feeling this was the start of your problems. You need to understand the differences between these types of things BEFORE you go and start modding your phone.
The company I work for is pretty picky about which phones can connect on their network and I managed to get the incredible up and running. As a hint, we recently purchased a smartphone company. Anyway when the purchase went through and they started letting execs carry the new phones, there were some ActiveSync changes that allowed exchange to work on just about anything that supported the required security policies.
Long story short, I’ve had a few times where i needed to delete the account and reactivate it because of sync problems. In order to do so, it seems like I have to turn lock picker off, setup the account, and then re-enable lock picker if I want that functionality. If you have this program installed, try disabling it, deleting your exchange account, re-adding your account, and then seeing what happens.
If by some strange chance you happen to work for the same company I hinted at above, shoot me a PM here and I’ll get you some instructions I found and essentially translated from the company we just acquired to the Incredible.
I have a phone by said company coming my way; they are expecting most of us to carry it at work. I wonder how hard it will be to switch back and forth…
I am having a very strange problem with exchange email with the native email client. I am trying to sync to a corporate Exchange 2003 server. All of the settings are accepted but it is not syncing the most recent emails. Oddly enough, if I select the option to sync one days worth of email, it syncs (approximately) email that is over one day old. If I select the option to sync a month's worth of email, it syncs email that is (again approximately) a month old. In addition, after the initial sync it doesn't sync any emails any longer, even if I hit refresh manually.
This problem only seemed to surface with the last update that was pushed from Acer (the small one after the big update that took me to 3.2.1). That happened on the first day that I got the A100 though so I didn't have it working for long before that. And in case you're wondering, I have not had this problem on any other device that I have tried. This includes two Nokia Symbian phones, a Nexus S running ICS and an Asus Transformer running 3.2.1. I have gone back and forth with Acer's email support and they have been no help at all.
Can anyone confirm for me that they have been running exchange email with the native app on a fully updated A100 without any problems? And an ideas on how to fix this problem for me would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
doesn't anyone use exchange email on their a100? I'd like to at least confirm that some people have it working properly.
My exchange works fine, but I'm on Exch 2010 w Sp1

Thanks. You have the latest updates for the a100 as well (2.007.04)? And the build number on mine is EMEA_GB (Europe, Middle East and Africa) for some reason even though I bought it in Toronto as well. Is that the same as yours?

Yup same thing as me... I got mine in Toronto as well from Kijiji though haha. Lots of torontonians on this forum!
Haha ya not sure why that is!
So looks like this might just be a problem with Exchange 2003 in particular I suppose. I just installed an app called "Exchange Email" which seems to be based on the stock email client and it's working fine. It's missing some features though like a working calendar so I would still like to figure out what's going on with the stock email client.

Check to see if the exchange server has all of the service packs installed... But really? Exchange 2003 is almost 10 years old... might be time for an upgrade
Yep I know it's old, but it's the corporate server and I don't have any control over it!
I am on Exchange server 2003, on an Acer tablet running android 3.2.1, and about a week ago, I started getting the same issue. If you find a solution, let me know and I'll do the same!
So it's not just me! Do you recall if it just started happening after the last patch?
I've only dealt with the Acer email support so I will try calling them as well. You should let them know too so they hopefully begin to understand that it's a problem and actually do something about it.

I'm incined to agree wth the service patches. Microsoft still supports Server 2003 so there should be a solution on their side.

We're up to date according to the version number. And I'm able to sync just fine with a number of other devices (both Android and Symbian), so this is something specific to the A100.

Have you tried reverting back to 2.007.01 and staying there since it was working before you updated it to .04?
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
I believe that I would have to root in order to revert back? I had asked Acer if there was a way to do it and they said no. I haven't attempted a root yet.
just use recovery to flash the update.zip file for build 2.007.01 and dont take the ota update to .04 aftewords.
I tried that before and it didn't work. I could've been doing something wrong but I downloaded the update.zip file from the official stock rom thread and put it on an external sd card. When I powered up holding the volume up key I get the android guy on the screen but then just get the yellow exclamation mark and the process stops. This happened both the update and the full package. I thought that this didn't work either because I was trying to go back to an older package or because I wasn't rooted.
No that just means your recovery partition is messed up, not sure how or why but for more info you can pull /cache/recovery/last_log and post it here. From that file I can tell why it failed.

I'm a noob so I'm not entirely sure where to check that. I checked in my cache folder with Root Explorer and there's nothing in there. Am I looking in the right place?
Sorry I meant ES File Explorer, not Root Explorer
ES and astro wont be able to see in that folder, you'll need to use either root explorer, script manager or adb to get to the recovery directory inside that cache folder.

Hi
I was running the changed (No security setting enforcement) email/exchange apps on my Galaxy S2 connecting to a Lotus Notes Traveler without any problems.
After upgrading to the Note 2, I dicovered, that I cannot setup my traveler account anymore. Neither with the stock email app, not with the changed one from the S3 rom.
It says, that either my server details are wrong or the protocol version is not supported. I am thinking of protocol version, since when I change my password, it says password is wrong.
I tried copying the old Email.apk and Exchange.apk from the S2 without success. It wont even start on the Note2.
Two questions pop into my mind:
1. I saw in the forum, that HTC Sence users can enable debugging for the email app. Can we also do that?
2. Any chance, someone has a working Email.apk and Exchange.apk from another rom without security restrictions?
Thanks in advance
You could get "Enhanced Email" from the play store and try that, I used it for a while until a problem I was having got resolved when I changed email hosts. It's pretty much a stock email client, with benefits.

thanks for the replies. enhanced mail doesnt work. it wouldnt let me enter an url like this: serverdns/servlet/traveler
the patch did work, but i get the same message as with the S3 email.apk
the protocol version is not supported.
with the S2 email.apk it worked. any possibility to get a detailed log from the app trying to connect?
Hi.
Did you manage to resolve this? I ask because I also need to connect to a Lotus Traveler server (Version: 8.5.3.3 Build 201209151353) via Exchange on my Galaxy Note 2 4G. I can do it fine on my Nexus 7 with no issues, but get the same error as you on the Note2.
Any solutions to post?
nope. unfortunately not.
i am getting a galaxy note 10 these days. lets see what the exchage app says there
Does anyone know ...
Does anyone know what causes these ActiveSync issues between the Android mobile device and the Traveler servers? Is it a Traveler server issue, Android OS issue, or an Android email app issue?
I am able to access my Lotus Notes corporate mail using an Exchange ActiveSync account on my iPad configured to point to a Traveler server. I haven't had any problems in 2 years of running this on my iPad. But, the Android experience has been unreliable at best including ghost syncs, lost mail that takes time to re-sync, battery drain while it spins. On my Galaxy Note 2, it seems to be an Android issue since I have no trouble on iOS, but, I'm not certain.
If anyone far smarter than me would mind explaining whats and whys, that would be appreciated.
hello. i hope this is under the right place! if not, i do apologize. i have two at&t samsung galaxy s3 phones, both running jelly bean. one is mine and the other is under my account (relative). i have purchased an app for my phone call phonelocator pro. seems to be a good app for the desperate times when you lose your phone! i installed it on my phone with no issues, and it works flawlessly! however, i signed in under my email address on the second phone (my relatives phone under my account) and downloaded the app and installed it with no issues. after installing the app on my relatives phone, i ran the app so i could fill in all the proper info. i figured at the time that i could use my relatives info (email address) and that would be that. a couple of days later i received an email from the company saying that i could not have multiple email addresses for the app and that the official email address (the email address used to purchase the app) would have to be used. i said, ok, no problem! i went to go back in to put my email address and correct the issue but it wouldn't let me. it keeps saying "error, this phone is registered with another email account". i tried every option in the setup wizard, but nothing works. i contacted support (about 7 times) for the app and in the end they told me that i would basically have to format and recover my phone to factory settings. i find that hard to believe. has anyone ever heard of this? does anyone else have this app and know an alternative way to correct this issuse? i unstalled the app and reinstalled and it did the same thing. i can't see putting factory settings if the email address is already registered to this phone. anyways, any help would be appreciated! thanks USCS30
Ok I have a issue i've been trying to fix for the past few hours. Hope some one can help.
I wanted to change the settings on one of my email accounts that i set up through microsoft exchange on my LG G3 and accidentaly deleted the account. So i thought not to bad i wil just add it again...nope that's not so easy. It keeps sayong cannot connect to server when i try to add a new account. What can I do?
It's especially frustrating as I just did a factory reset, got MM on there and just made the email account yesterday without a problem....and now it won't allow me to do that again.
Thanks for the help.

What rom are you using?
Sent from my phone
I'm having a similar issue along with 4 others with LG phones in our work environment. All of needed to just change our AD passwords because of policy, and when we updated our phones with our new AD password... we ALL get "Cannot Connect to Server". The workaround we are using for right now is the Outlook app on the play store. We were all using the native app before. I've tried clearing data/cache on the app, completely setting up my email account again all with no luck. We are using Office 365 and Exchange 2013. All of us are stock rom. Mine is the only one stock but rooted phone.

FIXED!
Thanks to this post: http://www.droidforums.net/threads/...-connect-to-server-to-change-password.288741/
It is an update for Android System Webview, basically I went into play store, uninstalled the update and went and set email up fine on the native app. Then went back in and ran the update. No need to reboot.
