www.hotmail.com on Diamond - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

I use my hotmail all the time, and have been using it on my Diamond for the last 4 months successfully.
Yesterday I logged into Hotmail on my PC and I got a message about Hotmail has changed... better layout etc - but since this I can't get it to work on my Diamond.
I go to www.hotmail.com and then enter my user and password. I get the inbox screen, but it never fully loads (the green bar is about 1/3rd of the way). I can see my new messages in the inbox, but if I click on them nothing happens. Can someone else try this and tell me if its just coincidently collided with my update to the new Dutty 2.8 ROM - or have Microsoft added Flash content into the Hotmail page or something?
I've also tried Opera Mini - which is exactly the same making me think its not my Dutty ROM.
I'll be a bit miffed if I can't check my Hotmail anymore on my Diamond, as its one of the main things I need an 'internet' phone for.

Right... I've now set up the Windows Live application - so that my Hotmail comes into my Outlook. It seems to work well, but when I do a Send/Recieve from within Outlook it connects via my GPRS / 3G rather than my Wi-Fi (which is connected at the time).
If I do a sync from within the Windows Live app, it syncs by Wi-Fi.
Its a bit annoying as I just got a message with a 2mb attachment. I try to open it, and even though I'm connected by Wi-Fi, it still tries to downlaod the attachment by GPRS!
I've looked through all the settings, but can't see anything? Any ideas?

I've just tried it and got similar results; I got the "we've changed the design a bit" message then my inbox loaded up fine, but I could click on any of my email messages. It was like the page just wasn't registering the clicks at all.
It's not a complete killer for you though as you can access your Hotmail inbox using the Windows Live application on the Diamond which, as I understand it, will skip the web interface entirely.
EDIT: Sorry dude, I was still typing when you made your second post so I didn't notice that you'd already found the Windows Live app. I don't use it myself so can't offer any help with the issues you're having there.

Thanks for trying it. I don't know what they've done in their changes, but its pretty annoying!
I'm probably better using the Windows Live program anyway as it will be quicker anyway. Its just annoying that it wants to connect to GPRS instead of using my Wi-Fi!

made a post in the general section as it seems to affect other WMs aswell?

Messaging application not working

Hi all,
My Kaiser (Vodafone 1615) has developed a problem with the standard Windows Messaging application. It basically won't run at all. When I click on the Messaging application in the Today screen, nothing happens. When I choose Messaging from the Start menu, nothing happens.
A quick bit of history: for several months I've had it set up for connecting to our work Exchange server, so email/calendar/contacts/tasks would get pushed down to the device. I also had IMAP configured to access my gmail account. I would sync calendar/contacts/tasks/notes/files to my home computer (Windows Mobile Device Centre on Vista), and sync notes only to my work laptop (ActiveSync 4.5 on WinXP). It was all working beautifully.
Then, a few days ago I connected my Kaiser to my work laptop and I got error 0x80004005 when it tried to connect to the Exchange server. Since then, I have been unable to access the Messaging application on my Kaiser. I've found quite a few references online to this error code, but nothing that seems particularly useful.
Of course, I've done a soft-reset as well as taken the battery out to do a cold-boot, but to no avail. I suspect that if I were to do a hard-reset then I could get it working again, but I've hesitated so far to do that because I'd have to re-install all my other apps which would take some time, so I'm hoping someone here can help me out!
Maybe this is the opportunity to try out one WinMo 6.1...
Thanks in advance!

Yes, there is a Messaging shortcut in both the Windows and Start Menu folders. It points to "tmail.exe", which exists in the Windows folder. When I try to open tmail.exe directly in File Explorer, nothing happens...

Looks like I am out of ideas. Do u use HTC HOME? If yes, what happens when u hit one of the icons(where it counts your received messages, mails, ...)?
If this is not working, then u should install some sms application and use it instead of the default one.

Yes, I use HTC Home, and I get the same behaviour (i.e. nothing happens) when I click on the two buttons where it counts the number of messages I have.
I'm really thinking I'm going to have to do a hard reset to get this working again unless anyone else has any ideas...

Email - Attachments - Not Downloading

Hi everyone,
I just can´t download the attachments of emails I receive...I make the sync, I receive the emails, but when I try do download the attachments it just don´t work (it seems that its going to download, it show that "download arrow" aside de attachment, but nothing happens and the "download arrow" just goes away...).
Can you help me with it?
Nobody?
I have just installed a new ROM and nothing...its seems to be hardware problem, and that really sucks.
With my Touch Cruise and with the same configuration, everything just works fine. With my friend´s Diamond, everythings works fine either.
However, with mine it´s impossible to download email´s attachment...damn...
Have you checked your email settings??...if not check there...click on the account your having probs with and go through the settings ie advanced settings and there should be something there regarding downloading attachments.
For my gmail account, i have all attachments downloaded when i get new emails.

downloading first all headers and only after you choose witch attachments you are interested in and make anther send\receive you'll get them.
Thank you for your response.
However, this is not a settings problem. I have checked and re-checked all the settings. Actually, the settings on my Diamond are exactly the same I had on my Cruise, and are the same I have inserted into another Diamond.
It's really strange...always when I try to download attachments it shows "error synchronizing". I have already choosen the external memory to be the place to file the attachments, but it didn't worked.
On the attachments folder at the external memory it only shows some "empty" icons, but there are no attachments downloaded over there.
It is so frustrating...damn...

That's exactly what I do. On my Cruise it was the same...the header first...than choosing the files, and after all that pressing the send/receive. But this is not working with the Diamond.
It starts the procedure of downloading the files, and after all it finishes the procedure without downloading it. It also clear the "downloading arrow", as if the download had been finished...but it's not...
Exactly the same thing happens with the TyTN II in certain circumstances.
As far as I can tell the problem only arises with HTML mail and even then it seems to depend upon the mail program that sent the message attachment. If I receive an HTML message sent from Outlook by one of my clients I can download the attachment but if I send myself the same email from Outlook on my own machine the attachment disappears.
Judging by the size of the email (on the TyTN at least) the attachment is in fact downloaded but is just not visible.
Try sending yourself or getting someone to send you an email in text format with and attachment and my guess is that you will be able to download and see it.

Thank you mate. I have just tryed this, but it also didn't worked...I'm totally lost...I just don't know what to do, and I'm really planning to smash the Diamond against my bedrooms wall....hehehehehe...
Nobody? No clues?
I have already updated Diamond´s ROM, and nothing happened.
I have also called the HTC support in the US, and no way of getting the emails´ attachments downloaded...damn...
I have changed my ROM at least 4 times...now I'm using the 137.456.2, and the attachments still not downloading....frustrating....
Guys, this is my last posting regarding this matter...I promisse!!!
Unfortunatelly, this attachment issue that I have faced is too much for me. I have tryed to change the ROM...I've changed the settings...I've prayed the Lord and I've entered into an agreement with the Devil itself...and nothing happened.
The Diamond's behavior is not exactly what I've thought a up-to-date device should have.
Shame on HTC...that has acted such as a minor company...
Therefore, I'l have to get bach to Sony...Xpria here I come!!!!!!!!!
SOLUTION!!
Hello,
I too noticed this issue, and found this thread this evening in attempting to resolve it. GOOD NEWS – cracked it!
I had exactly the same issues as you, and I also had multiple Windows Mobile 6.1 devices to test with (including 2 x HTC Diamonds). All WM6.1 devices had the same issue, although an old WM5 device (original HTC Touch in fact) worked fine.
This led me to think it could well be a backend Exchange 2007 configuration issue - and indeed it was: basically a Exchange 2007-set policy to which only the newer devices would adhere to.
Very simple to change:
1. From your Exchange 2007 server go into the ‘Exchange Management Console’
2. Open up the ‘Client Access’ pane which is beneath the ‘Organisation Configuration’ tree
3. Right click on your defined rule (‘Default’ by, erm, default!) and click ‘Properties’
4. Go to the ‘Sync Settings’
5. You need to tick the (now rather obvious!) ‘Allow attachments to be downloaded to the device’
6. Click OK
7. FIXED!
FYI. when I first looked at this a few months ago, ie. when I first migrated my test platform over to Exchange 2007, I assumed here I was defining the default download policy for a given Windows Mobile device, ie. the same as you enter on the device (when selecting how much of a message header to load, how many days/weeks of past calendar etc).. where-as instead on further attention to detail it transpires you are simply giving permission / setting limits here in the Exchange 2007 interface and then you setup your actual preferences on the device itself.
Hope this all makes sense.. and brings an end to your sleepless nights!
Si
Nice.
Thank you Mate.
I have found this other solution, which I have apllied and worked nicelly:
"I have a 800w with Windows mobile 6.1 connecting to a 2003 Exchange
SP2 server. Everything is syncing just fine with active sync but when
I try to open a attachment I get nothing. It looks like its
downloading but never turns the icon to a real icon.
(...)
Well after another couple of hours on the phone with Microsoft we have
at least identifies the problem. The IIS server we have OMA on is
also hosting web services for Citrix. The Citrix licensing service
uses Tomcat for most of its functionality and when we disabled the
isapi_redirect.dll, the phone was able to download again. Looks like
its off to Citrix or Apache for the fix unless someone out there knows
of a fix. "
My problem was exactly the above: Citrix + WinMobile 6.1 + 2003 Exchange Server.
See ya!
How did you disable the dll?
How exactly did you disable the dll?
Did you Prohibit "Tomcat Servlet Engine" under Web Service Extension?
I found this blog that details the issue, however the link to his patched dll is broken:

Link mail screen to outlook mail

On the TF3D sceen, is there any way to link the mail button to the outlook mail instead of the "internet" mail?
Thanks
Err... If you set up your Outlook mail.. it would work.
If you set up your Outlook Mail and KEEP the Internet Mail (as well), then you will have both of them being accessed from the TF3D mail button (two envelopes on the right, instead of one)
If you set up your Outlook Mail and DELETE the Internet Mail, then you will have one envelope on the right .. and THAT will be the one for Outlook Mail.
To set up your Outlook mail, Tap on TF3D mail button
Then tap on Inbox
Then - Menu - Tools - Options
Now, tap on Outlook E-mail and enter the settings.
I actually tried to configure the Outlook Mail account (time pass) for gmail.
I couldn't get it to work.. (for some reason - sure I did something wrong).
Tried to sync Outlook Mail with my PC using Active Sync... some certificate validity issues came up..
Then, just decided to chuck it.
Had two envelopes appearing on the side.. just went ahead and cleared up everything from the registry - related to the mail set ups and set up my Gmail as the Internet Mail again.
I have set up my Outlook, and as you can see from screenshot, it's got mail in it, however, if I delete my POP3 email, the TF3D screen shows no accounts in the mail screen...
Anyone got any idead how to link the Outlook Inbox to the TF3D Mail screen??
Your email notification icon at the top looks quite suspicious... do you have another email client (such as BB Connect or Intellisync Mobile Suite) installed? I used Intellisync before and this is the icon I received and it also wasnt appearing in TF3D.
Let me know if you are using Intellisync- there is a work-around

It's much better than Outlook Mobile isn't it? Nice to have REAL push mail
The reason TF3D isnt working is because it only recognises Outlook Mobile and not IMS and you do not have an Outlook account setup. The workaround (I'm hoping to find a better way) is to create an Outlook account through Activesync/Mobile Device Center on your PC. I've done some tests and there is no conflict between the two.
The downside is that there is no real integration between TF3D/Outlook and IMS so IMS is essentially working in Parallel. What I am trying to figure out is how to map TF3D to IMS so that when you click the envelope it takes you to IMS and not Outlook. At least with this workaround, you will get the best of both worlds with TF3D showing you your emails and IMS giving you the real push mail functionality which Outlook lacks.
Let me know if it works for you

Excellent. I'm now showing the envelope in the Mail TF3D screen. I presume that with this workaround, all I will ever get is the "Click to view message" message, and not the first few lines of the message that you get with a POP3 account or a proper outlook account. (see attached)
From reading your message I am also guessing you are using version 8 or 9 of IMS. I currently look after 3 servers all using varieties of version 6. I have just created a new server with version 9 which installs the "intellisync" suite of application on the device. I've tried it on an XDA Exec, XDA Orbit (and some nokia and Sony Ericsson devices). I haven't tried it on the Diamond yet. How is it on that?

Correct.
I am using version 9 which works like a charm. I work for the local operator here in Dubai and am currently one of a few internal testers for IMS before we launch it as a service. I find it to be very functional and light on resources- highly highly recommended. Beats all competition including Blackberry (I've also set it up to get a personal POP3 account in much the same way as BB Internet does)
As for how much of the message appears in the TF3D, this depends on how much you tell Outlook to download of the message- all you need is a couple of KBs at the most to get the first few lines in the envelope.
Hey guys
I'm sorry but this will be probably an off-topic and stupid question but when you receive an email on your Diamond does it look like on your pc and can you view emails that have lots of graphics in them ??
I'm really sorry but this is my first WM device and i would like to know things like that
It depends on what kind of email account you are setting up on the device. If it's an Exchange account, the server has to be running Exchange 2007 for you to get HTML email on your device. Internet Email and IMAP display HTML without any problems.
well i've been using maill2web and it just emails didn't look like they should. Maybe you can tell me where can i find a good exchange server or something like that ??

Well... there's many to choose from depending on your needs and budget (not sure of any free ones but you'll probably find some out there- although possibly not because Exchange is not cheap to install or maintain). Anyway a simple Google will give you many results http://www.google.ae/search?hl=en&q=hosted+exchange&meta=
Anyone found the solution yet ?
Noticed the solution to sync to a phony account - But I would really prefer to sort this via a registry tweak or similar.
I need to roll this out to a large number of corporate users, so the phony tweak is kind of hard to roll out compared to a registry modification.
Anyone?...
Its kind of frustrating to see the number of new emails in the notification area of TF3D but not actually being able to use the TF3D envelope function.

Problems accessing iGoogle and gmail on Opera browser

Hello, since a couple of days i've been experiencing problems using iGoogle on my opera browser... The problems started after upgrading my phone from 1.37 rom to 1.93, but they're probably unrelated to the rom.
I can access the google page, but after entering my email and password to login to iGoogle or gmail something strange happens: I am directed to a completely blank page, with 1 word in the top-left of the page "Google". Nothing else. Also, a small icon of a lock appears in the address bar. The address bar displays an url starting with https://.
One time i got an error message saying i had cookies disabled, but when I checked in the Opera settings it was enabled, and i never changed this... so this appears to be a problem with Opera not allowing cookies, since google wants to place a cookie when you log in.
Does someone recognize my problem and know how to solve it?
Some other people have the same problem, see here.
I have the same problem. It started a couple of days ago, and I didn't change any settings. This was before I updated to the 1.93 rom, so I should think it's a problem on googles side, and not with the phone.
I'm still able to access gmail with Internet Explorer (but the light version for mobile phones).
i sorted mine out .solution here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=2557072#post2557072
It's a different problem to the one you had coopigeon, and the solution that worked for you doesn't help here.
I think omnivore and jaeger are on the right track that it's an Opera issue in how it's interacting with the gmail servers, perhaps relating to 1.93, or some new settings google are now using??!
It used to work or me, and now it's not working for me (after I upgraded to 1.93) so I'm stuck to using IE for e-mail checking
Yes it's different, because I use a mail account set on IMAP for gmail and that works perfectly... I don't even want to use the browser gmail, cause the WinMobile account stuff is good enough for me.
The problem is indeed related to the way the Opera browser interacts with the google page. I have now tried something:
I typed the entire url in my desktop browser... and voila, there i was on iGoogle. I guess my new diamond is not as shiny as my old desktop pc ;-)
The long url i get when i try to log in on starts with https, which means it's a secure connection, and apparantly Opera can't handle it. Either placing cookies is disabled in the software (although the settings say different), or the browser somehow can't redirect from the https secure page, to the normal http page.
Are there programmers here who can look into this? You'd be a great help, cause I'm addicted to my iGoogle with 10 different news-sites! RSS feeds don't even come close...

MANGO issues - post update

After having updated my HTC HD7 with the Mango official build (via Zune) i noticed a couple of strange errors/bugs that didn't exist before. Let me share those with you, hoping that some of you may have found solutions to these:
1. When replying to an email, after typing some words and adding a couple of newlines, a strange ghosting appears, it looks like the keyboard on 5% transparency being overlayed on the text. Definitely a rendering bug, very annoying.
2. The copy paste icons are different, round. However, after a copy and a successful paste, the Paste icon appears half docked to the left. Before Mango, it would slide all the way to the left, i would drag it out by swiping right. ATM it just stays there, half visible. Maybe it's a new redesign? Looks awful though.
3. Emails with attachments rarely download by single tap on the attachment. It usually informs me the download couldn't complete and fails silently. After a manual resync of email, the attachments appear downloaded. It's not my exchange server, as i had the same server 1 day ago with NoDo working just fine and i also checked with the IT staff.
4. The home screen background used to display my stats and calendar immediately. Now it has a 1 second delay between powering on the device and displaying the information over the background. I immediately see the background, but it takes a while to update the stats (eg. new emails counter). Could be a redesign as well, but definitely annoying.
That it for now, let me know if you found any of these behaviours on your phones and what can be done to solve them. Thanx.

After a manual resync of email, the attachments appear downloaded. It's not my exchange server, as i had the same server 1 day ago with NoDo working just fine and i also checked with the IT staff.
4. The home screen background used to display my stats and calendar immediately. Now it has a 1 second delay between powering on the device and displaying the information over the background. I immediately see the background, but it takes a while to update the stats (eg. new emails counter). Could be a redesign as well, but definitely annoying.
That it for now, let me know if you found any of these behaviours on your phones and what can be done to solve them. Thanx.

It's true... I have the same problem. So much time to release Mango update and still have problems...
I updated to Mango and none of my email works right anymore. I have an Exchange account and 3 Hotmail accounts through WP7 (I used the m.hotmail.com setting for the 3 Hotmail accounts so everything on my WP7 is EAS.)
For Exchange it appears the conversation feature is the problem. When it is enabled I am unable to delete my email from the Exchange server using WP7 (if I am having a conversation, thus a thread - if it's a single email I can.) When the conversation feature is disabled, I am unable to delete email off the Exchange server using Outlook 2010 (I have to go to OWA or my Blackberry to get the email off the server.)
For my Hotmail accounts - I am unable to receive new incoming mail with the conversation feature enabled. So I obviously disabled it. I also have my Hotmail accounts as POP3 through Outlook 2010. For each POP3 account, Under Advanced Settings I have selected, "Remove from server when deleted from 'Deleted items'" selected. After the Mango update that no longer works for Hotmail or Yahoo (I used to have Yahoo through WP7 but recently took it off.) To remove from the server from your computer you now you have to log into Hotmail/Yahoo via the website and delete it. WP7 will delete it (only if you haven't already deleted it from Outlook, thus you can't delete email from Outlook anymore) - WP7 is now the main manager of my POP3 accounts which shouldn't be the case.
When I first updated to Mango I was unable to get WP7 to delete from the server for any of my POP3 accounts or Exchange. I uninstalled and reinstalled the accounts I could, but with WP7 you can't do that with the main Hotmail Account - which led me to a reset. After the reset nothing is better. I also deleted all my accounts from Outlook 2010 and added them again. Nothing. I have this on Microsoft's forum and found out that people who use the Hotmail Connector are not having the "delete from server issue" when using Outlook 2010. I don't need the Hotmail connector as I use Exchange (I don't need or want all my stuff on a bunch of servers.)
I haven't heard of anybody else experiencing this. I have a ticket open with my Hosted Exchange provider - I know the dude that will talk to me tomorrow... I am hoping he can help me with Exchange - but to tell you the truth how??? Everything is syncing fine - I can send/receive email and my contacts and calendar sync as well. It's just getting the email to delete from their server - I shouldn't have to pick between Outlook or WP7 - both should delete.
I have thrown everything at this I can think of... calling AT&T will do nothing because they are stupid. I have a Nokia N900 a Blackberry and multiple computers (I am kind of a tech fan) and having email that should be DELETED off the server keep showing up all over the place is just not working for me. I don't want to walk away from WP7, I really like it - but I have no idea how to fix this.
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated...
(Sorry my first post is this long drawn out diatribe of email sync dysfunction - but unfortunately that is my life right now. Hoping somebody can help lift me back into the light - where I used to be when my email synced to all my devices flawlessly... life before "Mango." )
Thanks for your patience....

(I searched for Mango problems and landed here - but didn't realize that this is HTC - I have an LG Quantum. So sorry - my bad (Hanging my head in shame right now)...
