I Have the new oneplus three device
I have unlocked bootloader
installed twrp
flashed unofficial cm13
flashed arm64 gapps 6.0
this setup is missing the stock email app and calendar (yellow mail icon)
I need to bypass exchange security for an email account to prevent pushing down draconian security policies
any solutions here? I have a file called cm13.0exchange_fix20160416.zip but after flashing it with twrp it never places the files in the system/app folder like it should, any ideas?
I just installed nine mail, and this is an acceptable workaround for now. my calendar syncs, and I can keep my smart lock features and fingerprint scan. still would like to know what happened to the stock email apps.......
As far as I know starting with 5.1, Gmail handles Exchange sync and POP3/IMAP accounts as well as Google Accounts. I support clients that use Exchange with both Nexus and non-nexus devices, Nexus devices lack the stock Email app and have to add the account via Gmail, while most OEM roms still carry it. My previous Moto X with CM13 and Gapps had the same setup, along with the OP3, you should be able to sync calendar and contacts through Gmail, but I can't be sure about bypassing the security policy.
Nine works too
When you install GAPPS all the CM's default apps get uninstalled if a comparable Google substitute has been installed.
Workaround: go for the GAPPS with the aroma installer and you can configure this behavior.

Hi,
I have a problem.
My contacts are not updating to Exchange.
When I add a new contact via the phone (selecting the exchange account) it does not get updated to the exchange contacts. Any ideas what I would be doing wrong?
My Sync is on, background data is on.
System specs:
I am running MIUI Rom (v22) but had the same problem with opendesire before I switched. Now using Cyanogen, ROM version does not matter
Email.apk version: 2.2
Contacts version: 2.2
Now Solved:
Possible Reason: Changed ROMs too many times
Solution requirements: Exchange 2007 with Owa and internet explorer then you can do it yourself else you need to get your IT guy to do this.
Solution:
a. Go to OWA (in IE) and delete all instances of your android device from there under the mobile devices tab.
b. remove your exchange account from phone and add it again.
To test:
c. Add new contact,
d. disable sync and re-enable for exchange account from accounts screen.
repeat step D if contact doesn't get updated.
Any ideas guys???
Use the search ... there must be an topic with the same problem ... there is an link to an stock e-mail app whitch should work.
hi philj,
i only asked the question after i scoured the forum and google for about 2 hrs
I'll try and replace the email.apk and see if that helps
So I changed Roms, went to Cyanogen mod new RC.
My google account syncs two way perfectly not exchange.
Using touchdown doesn't help because you can't add contacts to it with either CAM card or from the accounts application.
I'm having trouble getting my calendar to work. I'm using CodefireX (the pmem version) with the most recent GApps package. When I load the calendar app, there is nothing there and I can't add any new events.
When I click on the settings button and click on my account, it says "no calendars," and when I look at the sync options under my Google account (going through the regular system settings menu), there is no option for calendar, just browser and contacts.
Edit: I also tried flashing an older version of GApps but to no avail.
Edit 2: Apparently it's a known bug. I missed it when I read the change logs. Please disregard.
I have 4.3 stock firmvare (India) + ROOT and the next problem with stock e-mail app (ver. 4.2).
Until two days ago I used another email application but on the recommendation of a friend I tried to configure the application above. I set up an Exchange email account that is not fully synchronized (application stopped several times showing error "email unfortunately has stopped") so I wanted to delete it but without success.
That's what I did and what I chose:
Delete account from the application - successful deletion message - account still exists
Delete account from the Accounts - account still exists in the application
Adding a new email account exchange
Delete account 2 of the application - successful deletion message - account still exists
Delete application (deleting files from system / app) and reloading firmware 4.3
and surprise ... where I had 2 email accounts after all I have 4 accounts because was doubled.
Very strange. Is there a solution? Thanks
wrong section
Have not unlocked or rooted yet, still waiting.
Has anyone had problems connecting their google account to the google contacts app?
Keeps trying to add my google account into the phone when its already there.

Yeah, I have that issue too on mine. I figure it is something to do with Google service not being native and the MIUI stuff being the defaults.
I just got it today, so I figure I just have to wait till Sunday to unlock, and flash the EU ROM.
I had to export my google contacts and import them into the native contacts app
This is at least a work around until maybe the final Global Rom is released and we see if it supports google's contact app
Goto -> h t t p s : / / www google com/contacts/u/0/?cplus=1 -> click more -> export
Save contacts.vcf to phone storage
On Phone goto Settings -> scroll down to system apps -> contacts -> import/export contacts -> import from storage
I had issues syncing google contacts with the Chinese ROM. I think installing 'google contact sync' via apk from apk mirror solved it (there is also a Google calendar sync). I can't quite recall as I'm now on eu rom and everything works perfectly.
Installed EPICRom, and everything is perfect now.
MIUI 9 and all Google Services are working
I installed the EU MIUI, and everything works as well.
Anyone else missing calendar sync in their OS? The option is completely missing from the account and as a result the calendar doesn't sync.
its there for me
Working perfectly for me
Missing for me too. Fresh install and new device setup not restore previous phone.
