Windows Live for Windows Mobile.
Its not working correctly for me on Hyper Dragon III Full rom. Installed a cab for Windows Live 10.6.0034.0800. I then set up email (I have a legacy hotmail account) via messaging > windows live. Inbox fails to sync, but contacts will sync. After fiddling with manage folders sent items will sync but junk mail wont. So at present i am able to sync contacts, and sent items, but not inbox or junk mail.
Tried thinning down both folders (Less than 50 messages each) but no dice. Any one else having difficulties with windows live and hotmail, or know of a fix for this issue?
I know the server isnt broken because i can sync sent items and contacts...
Trim them down some more. Same thing happened to me. I think Microstink changed server settings and won't synch a heavily loaded inbox. I have only 26 items in hotmail inbox now and it works fine.
I thought they took care of the heavily loaded inbox by only displaying last 50 msgs...
Any who, slimmed inbox to 21 messages, and still no sync "Failed to synchronize Inbox"
Surprisingly junk email did sync with only 5 messages... Ill slim down my inbox some more, bur will be upset if my inbox will only sync with 5 msgs.
It worked after slimming inbox to 4 msgs. whats the point.
Had 25 emails in my inbox and it brok'd again... Boo . Is there another way to sync hotmail besides going to mobile live via PIE, or using mobile live?
This is ridiculous, i would say its an issue with my build current build of Windows Live Mobile, but sent items and junk mail are syncing now... Its the inbox that wont sync. It seems to be very enigmatic.
Anyone having luck syncing hotmail/live inbox with other builds of Windows Live Mobile? If so what build are you using? What rom are you running?
Thanks in advance,
James
This happened all of a sudden for me... I don,t think it's a ROM issue but a server issue. Might be a good time to consider using Gmail. I don't have this issue with my Gmail account.
Not a bad idea .
Hotmail seems to be working ATM. I'm gonna have it do syncs every 15 min for the next day or so.
Opened a gMail account as well, nice that they have imap!
What's the maximum attachment limit for Hotmail on mobile?
It doesn't seem to bother with anything bigger than 2MB... how lame!
Kinda makes HSDPA pointless lol
I've always had problems with Windows live, first setup it syncs flawlessly then nothing but fails. Totally useless. Like you say whats the point in having to log in via PIE, clear your emails out, then re-sync. I'm absolutely amazed that Microlimp haven't sorted this out yet I mean come on its not like people receive less that 5 messages a day what with spam and whatnot.
Useless.
The only solution I think is to forward all your mails to a Gmail account, but im pretty sure that's not a free service, nothing in life usually is.
Live Mail won't download
I've been running into the same problem where my hotmail account won't download. The symptoms are that the email account works fine (access from a PC always works), then suddenly poof, my phone won't synchronize with the server anymore.
On the WindowsMobile website, this is a known problem with the email service and MSFT is trying to fix it, but it's still broken.
The workaround is to find the offending piece of email that is causing the logjam. Once it's been moved to a non-synchronizing folder or has been deleted, Live Mail downloads just fine again. The problem is finding the offending piece of email. For expediency, I just copy ALL my mail to another folder, just to get the downloading working again. I have not found the characteristics that cause the problem, but I do know it doesn't happen to simple text emails.
I've been having problems with this for the last month, very annoying.
AutoSync
So far so good, with auto syncs every 15 min. Hopefully it will last, or at least allow me to find out what mail is causing the sync to break... I didn't know that there are bugs in Windows Live, (or perhaps it !is! a feature to have sync break) maybe it should be degraded back to beta.
I have been having this problem for the last few days, thanks for the notice that it was due to an e-mail jamming it up.
It was my e-mail coming from skyfire, the one telling me to log in and dowload the beta.
I deleted it, and it is working just fine now.
Autosync
Autosync-ing every 15 min or so seems to do the trick, so far for me. Haven't had any issues since cleaning out my inbox and setting up auto sync.
* Damn, didnt realize that i get so much cr*p!
've had me tilt for almost a year now, and have never been able to get my email to work properly. I don't use any added email program, just use what's included. I use gmail, my gmail acct has pop and imap enabled. I use the included settings on my tilt to set up my gmail account. When I set up my email, It only includes emails from the last 30 days and deletes emails off my tilt after 30 days have passed, so I checked the setting, to make sure it's set to download all emails, w/attachments. I reset up my email and it downloads all the email. It either does the same thing or, it then downloads all the in the "all mail" box from gmail, and not the inbox folder, but it doesn't download any of my recent messages. I've tried to set it up via outlook included on the Tilt via active sync, I've checked my sync setting to make sure it downloads my messages to my phones outlook, which is checked and it doesn't. I've done a hard reset, and tried to adjust all my settings, w/no luck. Any tips on how to get this to work, or is there a free email program available that's easy to use? Thanks
bumping, anyone able to help.
You don't have your account (on the phone) set up using POP do you? I remember that created some odd issues for me so I googled it and found Google's help page:
http://mail.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=78886
I you haven't seen it before it might be good to follow it's steps. If it's still having issues after that I'm not sure what's going on, sorry.
I have used Pocket Outlook to sync with my Gmail account through IMAP for sometime now. Last week, I got a message everytime that it tried to sync OTA, that showed up as "no subject, no message, 0 k".
I reviewed my settings, and all was correct. I tried soft resetting, no luck. I tried uninstalling Microsoft Live Search, which I had recently installed. Same.
I eventually did a hard reset, as things were kind of slowing down anyway. Here is the weird part. I re setup the settings to sync with Gmail, and it successfully synced those emails up to June 2nd, but nothing after.
I am also getting a "tmail.exe" error when syncing, and sometimes, Outlook closes altogether.
Any thoughts?
I am running stock At&t 6.1 Rom.
UPDATE!!!!
Problem solved. There was one particular email that was almost all embedded jpeg's that once it was archived, the rest of the messages came through.
I flashed to JM5 the other day and setup my google account on startup as usual.
Everything came down ok - calendar, contacts and mail. I have push enabled and I get informed of my mails almost instantly as expected. I can mark them as read and/or delete them without issues.
The issues come later when I sign onto my GMail account on my home PC - all the mails I have read/deleted during the day are still marked as unread and I have to re-read/re-delete them. Everything else works fine!
Can anyone shed any light on this?
I've tried to delete the account and re-add but it says I can't remove it (since other apps are so dependent on it) without a factory reset.
i've my gmail account configured to Archive downloaded/read emails

I have the same problem, and it started recently...past two weeks probably. It is annoying, I'll open gmail on the phone, read the messages, close gmail, open gmail and they are right back.
I'm on a Vibrant, search feature brought me here...
Just logged in after around a couple of years being inactive.
Just would like to ask. Is there anyone using G1 exchange services in GMAIL?
I just noticed that after gmail and connectivity services have been recently upgraded, mail and other sync on my exchange services email are no longer properly syncing..
I have removed and added several times my work email (exchange) and doing that did not solve the problem that shows "No Connection" that appears whenever I access my exchange email using the default GMAIL service.
During initial set-up, all contacts, meetings and the likes including emails, sync. However, AFTER it completes the sync, it no longer syncs and always says "No Connection" on the bottom left side of my screen, and then "Reply" on the bottom right hand side of it.
On another note, error comes up if I try to sync "ALL" emails. So I ended up using just 1 month worth of emails instead of ALL.
Any idea aside from hard reset, to resolve this problem? Or is someone experiencing the same thing?
Thanks!
