Problems with EXCHANGE & Push

Hi,
I had a iPhone 3G, and now a HTC Desire.
I can get my Mails & Contacts over the air with EXCHANGE, but there comes no Push-Notification if a new mail arrives.
Push is activated in settings.
Can someone help me?
Regards,
Kangaroo

Open mail and goto menu>more> settings> notification settings> this will give you a notification in the top task bar.

you may have the old shoddy htc mail problem, it shows itself as push stopping after a while for no good reason. Try a force close on mail and see if it works.
BTW, are u using a Telstra Desire?

I installed trial of Roadsync - works perfect ...
So I'll spend this $9,95 ...
Greetz,

btw. it's a german HTC Desire - T-Mobile-Device (rooted) with original ROM

The current Facebook doesn't support syncing yet regarding Android ICS 4.0 and later.
You will have to wait 'till FB developes a new app or check one of the ROMS out there, somebody (maybe it was for SGS1 ICS) has made it so that syncing works in ICS, but that's modding and not officially through FB.

Notifications work fine, it is only contact sync that doesn't work 'out the box'

works fine with custom rom

I have same problem with stock HTC client on my HTC One S :silly:

Seems to be a known issue with Micro$oft fiddling with their servers.
Lots of info on the M$ support pages

Does the job.

Hotmail sync working again
Hotmail ActiveSync was broken on my Pre 3 for almost 2 months. It just started working again (11:15 PM US Eastern) for both accounts!

I used the stock Hotmail app, which has worked fine until a few weeks ago, does not always recieve now, and does not send anything !!!
I prefer this over the APP above from Microsoft as that only gives the option to download the past 7 or so days which is annoying.

Do you use custom ROMs or did someone of you have the same problem with the stock ROM? I noticed the problem the first time after unlocking the bootloader and flashing a custom ROM. This is now my fifth custom ROM from a different developer with the same Problem. I thought it might be a problem with some tweek the chefs use.
The hotmail App from the market is working fine but I would prefer the stock HTC app too

Just set it up as a POP3 mail account.
There's a limit to how many requests your phone can fire off though, so set it to sync every 30 minutes.

Rooted from day 1 so can't compare, although like I said it was working until a week or so ago and that would have been about a month on a combination of Leedroid and Pokemon. Now using viperx, still no joy.

same here
tried my Live mail, it works..they are the same servers right?

Hi all, i'm having the same issues running on ARHD 7.1 & ARHD kernel.
under setting account & sync it wll show:
Sync is currently experiencing problem, it will be back shortly.
any expert: pls advice ways to solve this problem, i would prefer to use back the in-built mail app.
Thanks

nobody idea?

The native app for hotmail was working perfectly for me at first, the only thing that didn't work was Youtube, but only doing an update (unapplying the update restored youtube function.
After rooting and flashing a ROM all video caused reboots and the native hotmail app stopped working.
After flashing back to RUU and re-rooting, hotmail apps still does not function but all other apps working correctly.
Really hoping that there's a fix somewhere for the stock Hotmail app since I'm not partial having multiple apps for email.

Stock Email Client

Anyone else having an issue where read messages don't stay marked as read? I've been having to re mark emails as read daily.

Yes. Even my note 1 was terrible with this. I'd delete messages even and they pop back up multiple times randomly. It's been pretty agitating, and I've gotten to the point where I just stopped the notifications.

Did you try using a 3rd party email app to see if it made a difference?
Sent from my Samsung Galaxy Note II (SGH-I317) on the infamous AT&T Network.

Yes, no change. This is yahoo, road runner, gmail, and the att.net via yahoo that all do it repeatedly on any device except via web browser. Tried an ipad, iphone, note 10.1, the first note phone, and both of the note 2's I have had. The apple devices don't copy the alerts for only the roadrunner account, otherwise all 4 accounts repeated the same problem.
Have you found any solution? I am not sure why all those different gmail and yahoo accounts would act so strangely but it is typical for me. Haha

Nope, unfortunately no solution as of yet but it's annoying as he'll, and I know that much!

This probably won't help, but I'll put it out there anyway. I've noticed that when I go into any web based email client (Comcast, for instance) the mail on my phone from that account...refreshes, is the best way I can put it. Mail I've already deleted from my phone pops up again as new and I have to go through and delete it again. That has happened on pretty much every phone I've used. Never really looked into it too deeply, but it is annoying.

Definitely true! I never had an issue with any devices for years now until my note 1 hit ICS official. I am not sure how it coincides but that is the only thing I know of that changed. Strange stuff. I have the same trouble, especially clear from device to device.

I may just try a 3rd party app to see if that helps. Maybe K9 Mail or similar. Will report back.

Just a few thoughts of what I've seen in the past. You may already know all this but FWIW, whatever.
1. pop3 email accounts are crap. Usually when you delete, it still stays on the server until you delete in webmail or something with true access to email.
2. Setting up email accounts with imap will delete off the server. It's not perfect like Exchange but better than pop.
3. I've often used the settings in gmail to push or pull email from my other none gmail accounts. For example my home internet company will only send usage alerts to the email account they provide. They also don't allow access to see the email unless you are on their network (at home) or go to their site and check their webmail app. So I use gmail pull tool to automatically check for new emails every so often (Gmail decides the frequency) and pull the new mail into my gmail account, then they show up on my phone. One time I accidently created a loop of three email addresses, one pushing and one pulling email so 1 email continually delivered over and over until I realized what I had done. "Broadcast storm anyone??" You may want to check how many devices are getting access to that email address, it could be something like #4.
4. I've seen a problem where my home desktop PC has Outlook installed. When outlook is open I think it would receive the email before my phone and save it to the PST, so my phone would never see it. Except there was a setting in outlook to "Leave emails on the server for X amount of time. Which was great because then my phone would see them even though outlook pulled them into the PST file. However I also noticed when I deleted the email from my phone it would reappear and I think it was because I had outlook leave it on the server. If my PC was shut off I had no problems. Another way I could clear it was to go to a webmail site and login to my email and delete them off the server. Then they would still be in my PST from the first time they arrived and I could also delete them off my phone only this time they would not reappear because I had gone into the server and deleted them. I bet this is as clear as mud right. Meh
One of these above may be a factor.

I am using apex launcher and the symptoms have minimized or fixed.... but this is an android issue... android doesn't do push like the iPhone...
on the iPhone...you delete an email and a couple of secs later.. it is gone from the web... and vice versa...
on android you have to wait till it syncs... it doesn't do push...
these are the things that make me want to go back to iPhone... i wish we could install iOS on this big phone!

Yahoo mail app does push for certain, and so does hotmail, even to the native email app. I just cant seem to get the yahoo mail app to zoom ever, and it makes reading messages impossible. I get the same repeated emails in ios also, so it isn't free of similar issues for me at least.

Try pushing aosp email & exchange APK to your phone and see if that fixes it by replacing the stock apps

[Q] Desire HD Email with Exchange Security Disabled

Hi there,
I have been having problems with Android AOKP Roms for Desire HD. As soon as you close the screen, the screen encryption (witch i am obligated to activate by my work email) turns on and when I unlock, it skips my lock screen shortcuts and widgets completely.
HTC found a way around that in Sense ROMS, by introducing a delay from closing the screen until the screen security turns on, and in that time you can still use the lock screen as you should without the annoying password.
Now this has been such a big issue that for my Galaxy Note 10.1 tablet an XDA user created an email app that tricks the exchange into thinking that the screen security has been activated when it has not, and so i can use my screen shortcuts and widgets and get my work email.
Is there such a hack for Desire HD Android 4.2 ROMS that do not have Sense?
Thanks,
Daniel

Try moxier mail. It not encrypt phone, just the email app. Is very good.

Hi,
I'm not going to pay that much for a thing that is already in android because the exchange only works for the trial period, and second the widget will not work unless you go into the app, put in your password and go out so... Any other ideeas?
Thanks,
Daniel
