[Q] JPP - Can't sync exchange calendar - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

After my update to Froyo JPP with Kies I can't sync my calendar with exchange anymore. Exchange Mail works fine. I do not get any error while syncing but no date or meeting apears on my SGS, before JPP with JP6 everything works fine.
After creating a date/meeting on my SGS this syncs once to my Outlook and then it disapears again. Very strange!
Any advise?
Ralf

Probably not related but I got a warning from android that my IT department needed to confirm that security setup was OK. I never saw this in Eclair.
Coincidence? Maybe. Helpful? You tell me.

I did go back to JF3 setup exchange - everything worked - again and then I updated with Odin to Jpp without re-partition. Now it's working.

Another problem - with the free Hotmail exchange I can't view HTML emails.
In fact the iPhone is the only phone that can, not even Windows Mobile can.

FRF91 + Exchange

Is anyone success to sync FRF91 with exchange?
for some reason i can't... i tryed some FRF91 roms and with all of them connection fail, and when i'm downgrade rom it's works fine...
Wrong section.
I'm using FRF91 with www.outlook.com ([email protected]) exchange solution no probleme all sync good.
Maybe you need to wipe
I have stock FRF91 and configured to synchronize with Exchange 2010 - no problems with synchronization there. Contacts, mail and calendar sync.
At what point in the process of setting the parameters of Exchange you go wrong?
Maybe you have a problem with SSL?
i have the same problem. it's definitely a certificate issue on exchange 2007. FRF91 broke the "accept all certificates" action, which is incredibly annoying.
Hi,
i don't know if this can help, but I noticed that passing from Eclair to FroYo, to make exchange sync work, I changed the server address from owa.xxxx.xx to owas.xxxx.xx . I leave checked both the options about security and SSL.
Let me know if it helps.
Bye
I met the same problem to sync MS Exchange Activesync account...
But under 2.1, it's ok.
I also have the problem connecting to exchange to sync my email on Froyo 2.2. This problem has caused me fall back to use 2.1. I am still looking for solution everywhere but seems like no one know the root cause why certain people can't sync their exchange after switch to Froyo.

The problem lies in libssl.so in Froyo (and libnativehelper.so for a sudo-related issue) - Google has identified the issue and has released code to fix it, but will be waiting for a 'future release' to deal with it.
There's a bug report on the CM issue tracker that outlines it. I posted the links to the relevant code bits there, and it looks like the fix will be integrated in to CM6 (although the current RC build and latest nightly builds still have the issue). Details can be found here: http://code.google.com/p/cyanogenmod/issues/detail?id=1780
Doe anyone know if its possible to search the GAL - When using exchange for addressing - it only seems to search the GAL for email addresses - I'd like to be able to do this for phone numbers - and other dept information. Any ideas how I can do this?

[Q] Cognition Froyo 2.2 - Exchange Email not working

Just went to Cognition 2.3b8 (froyo), mostly because I dont know any better and that appeared to be the most bug-free Froyo ROM for Captivate.
Anyway, I'm pretty happy with it so far, except that I cannot get Exchange email setup for work. I enter the same settings that I used in Eclair, but get the following error:
"Setup Could Not Finish. Unable to connect server".
The fully thing about that is, if I change my username or password to be wrong, I get an "incorrect username/password" error, which tells me that it is actually connecting to the server but something more subtle is wrong.
We do use Exchange 10 at work and I did attempt the solution posed by this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=821297
Nothing....same problem. Anybody else have experience with this? Any fix or suggestions floating around?
Thx!

I had the same problem. I ended up using "Improved Email" from the market - it looks a lot like the stock email app but has a few enhancements (and is free). Turned out (I think) that my corporate exchange server needed security settings that stock email didn't have (and acknowledged as such). Try that app or check out one of the other email apps if you prefer.
FYI - from my research I think this is a known issue with 2.2 and was fixed with 2.2.1.

Good to know - thx for the info Now I need to find a good basic 2.2.1 rom that isnt hacked to heck. Thats another post about that tho
Tried "Improved Email" but it didnt work either. Totally stumped our IT guys until I admitted it wasn't the standard Captivate ROM. They suggested I tried a program called Touchdown. It works but looks like total crap.
Oh well
I had a same problem when I flashed w/ Darky... I reflashed it and set up the email before I Ti restore... When Ti back up, unselect email restore... It works fine now... f
Just flashed to cog 3.0 and everything is working!
Slightly different exchange issue
I also recently took the plunge and flashed Cognition 2.3b8 (using the ODIN, one-click-download, master clear, ROM manager method). When setting up Exchange afterwards, I get the following error when trying to connect to the server:
Steup could not finish. This server requires security features your phone does not support.​
Same result when trying to use the "Improved Email" app. I just re-flashed back to stock with ODIN and then installed Cognition 3.04, and I got the same error message when trying to connect to the Exchange Server with the stock app.
I know it's not the login credential--if I change them around I get a different error message telling me that I am using the incorrect username/password combination. I have also tried to set up the Exchange account before and after doing the Ti restore.
Has anyone else seen this particular error message with the Cog ROMs? Thanks in advance.
Hello,
There hasn't been a lot of action on this thread recently, but I just fixed my issue and I wanted to post it for people's reference.
Some background. Since the last post, I updated to Cog 3.04 and fixed my Android ID, both in the hopes of fixing the Exchange issue. They did not. At the suggestion of a friend, I tried installing Touchdown, a third party mail app made specifically to work with MS Exchange. It was in fact able to sync with the Exchange server, and I now have my work email, contacts, and calender on my cappy. Some complaints:
- No integration with stock calendar app (as near as I can tell)
- Pay version is $20, which is a little pricey (I'm working with the 30-trial version for now)
Other than that, it seems like a pretty slick app, probably an overall improvement over the stock mail app, but I'll have to play around with it in the coming days to have more of an opinion there. One improvement I noticed immediately: I can move messages between personal folders using Touchdown, which I was not able to do with the stock app. On a side note, Exchange contacts, unlike the calender, integrated just fine with the phone contacts.
In summary, I have no clue why this mail application succeeded in syncing with my company's Exchange server when the stock app could not. However, I wanted to get this out there as an option if anyone else is having similar issues after updating their Captivate to some flavor of 2.2.

[Q] Exchange Support

I just got my galaxy s i9000m back from repair, with JL2 (2.2) installed on it.
Im trying to set up my work exchange email, but it gives me the unable to connect to server message. i was able to get it to work in Touchdown, but that is only a 30 day trial. I did a bit of googling and someone said its a bug that was fixed in 2.2.1
anyone else encountering this?
Thanks
Im able to connect to Exchange 2010 and can sync my contacts and email... calendar wont sync. Samsung said it would be fixed in the next update... no eta. Im on JL2.

Exchange account sync - calendar & contacts not sync properly

Hi,
I came from HTC desire, previously when I used with my office exchange, it managed to sync emails, calendar and contacts perfectly. However, when I changed to SGN, the following situation happen.
- Modify or cancel event from Outlook, phone doesn't get sync (even I sync manually few times), it is still displaying old info.
- Modify contact in Outlook, for example mobile number or name. Phone doesn't get sync and still display the old info.
- Modify contact in phone, for example company, Outlook doesn't get the updated info.
All above are done with process where sync is "triggered" successfully.
Did any of you encounter this problem? Any resolution?
I can't help you, but I'm having problems with email in my exchange account. I have everything set up the same as my last several Android devices, but I can't reliably receive new emails. Sometimes they'll be delayed by a day or so. It's almost like the email client is not using cellular data to update and only using wifi when the device is on. Anyone else have this problem?

Sounds like account & frequency settings than an issue. Have you verified them? Are you on mobile data all the time?
I'm finding that on occasion it stops syncing mail.. the moment you reboot OR go in and manually ask it to refresh it starts doing it normally again no problems...
I am also having the same problem .. However manually refreshing - sometimes still does not work. It is indeed - very annoying .. I believe the problem is in the Email.apk ..
still no solution found, apart from using different E-mail clients off the market, which work with various success ..
I've been through the settings many times but still have the problem. It just decides to stop syncing sometimes.

Any alternate email client you suggest? I start to miss HTC mail client.
Although a bit weird, but after flashing this rom (Cassie's XtraLiteRom KKA ThunderBolted! V2.2) it seem to work fine so far. Still observing and hope it does really work.
I am also using the same ROM - there was no improvement for me. I believe the problem is in the E-mail client. The one we have is version 3.0.0.1. Before on another Android phone I used 2.3.5. I tried to replace the new one with the old one - and then it works. The problem is however that the old one is not scaling up to fit the large Gnote screen. It is a lower resolution.
I tried many other e-mail clients - K-9, Kaiten (both of them could not connect to my exchange server (2010)), Moxier - for some reason crashed my contacts and then I tried TouchDown - which is kind-a good and in terms of connectivity - all worked fine - but there were some integration points that were not fit for my taste.
What I ended up doing was a bit weird - but so far works nicely. I downloaded Google Calendar Sync - which takes your Outlook calendar and syncs it with your Google Calendar. Then I downloaded GO Contact Sync Mod - and that does the same for the Outlook and Gmail contacts. So I have both of them running on my PC and they automatically sync Calendar and Contacts. This way - my phone get them through the Google account and .. a bonus is that I have a backup
To check e-mails - I use the IMAP functionality of K-9 as my exchange server doubles up as IMAP too. For the time being - that's OK for me - and I will be hoping that Google will fix up this E-mail client in the Ice Cream Sandwich .. let's hope it is not I SCREAM sandwich
Alternatively - one can use the old E-mail client - 2.3.5 .. for Contacts and Calendar only and use K-9 for the mail .. It is really a matter of preference
I noticed that this may work. Instead of using push notification, use interval sync. This seems to solve it?
It's really weird and I still can't figure out the root cause.
That's a good clue - it appears to fix it!
Iam using SGN with 500+ emails everyday! absolutely no problem at all. I have been user of XE, XL, Sensation etc I personally think this issue arises when data connectivity of the concern operator is down (GPRS / EDGE) however, on WIFI no issues at all

Nope it's not the connectivity issue, it's the bug on push notification. Apparently this seems to be a bug in samsung, I didn't have issue in HTC previously.
After changing the push to interval pulling, it works perfectly fine now.
It might be related to 2.3.6 I recall having the issue on 2.3.5 and I'm pretty sure I saw it on my p1000 after I modded it.
My note is still stock.

[Q] Note and MS Exchange (Active Sync) issues

Hi all!
I was wondering if many people are using Exchange accounts on Note's generic mail application.
If so, do you have any problems?
For me one account works just fine (free windowslive account - yes it has exchange! you can sync calendar and contacts), but another wont.
It cant sync anything (showing cant connect to the server error), I can only see folder structure on my account..
I guess most of you are using gmail, but I don't like google. haha yea i hate google and just bought an android phone
Hi,
Since flashing LA4 I can't get it to connect to a MS Live address, I can however connect to my work Exchange 2010 server!? This was not an issue previously, but | flashed a LA4 ROM on Saturday and have been unable to connect since.
How did you get on?
Dan.

I am slightly confused. Are you trying to use them at the same time? What version of exchange are you trying to connect to that has problems? Does it use a third party certificate or a self-generated certificate (which would have to be installed on your device). While I have connected to Exchange 2010 with no problem I am currently using Touchdown instead of the built-in app, but only because I like the way it handles deletes. The built-in app worked flawlessly.
I use both mail clients quite a bit..
Both worth quite well. (though I find the in built exchange mail app to be clunky and crappy, am seriously considering forking out for a high priced market place app to replace it, though I'll wait and see what the ICS version is like first)
i'm using touchdown app for my office exchange email
I find Enhanced Email works best for Exchange and all other emails.

I'am using LA3 ROM, my previous was KKA.. MSLive worked fine on KKA and is working well on LA3. The other Exchange account is not working on LA3, never tried to set it up on previous KKA...

Yes I'm trying to set up two Exchange accounts to work at the same time.. But I have also tried to set it up (the problematic one) on wiped phone - with no success..
I do not know what version of Exchange it is.
As soon as i find free trial version of Enhanced Email i will try it.
Yes, I use 2 exchange accounts, one is with my work Exchange 2010 server with a proper certificate installed, this one works. The other is a MS Live @ Edu account which worked previously on LA3 and below. I have tried removing the device from the options on my web login for mobile devices.
I have also done a full data wipe on the device including cache and dalvik and freshly booted and tried to add this account and it consistently won't work. What I HAVE noticed though is that I now have to agree to a Samsung message where it tells me that a unique code will be assigned and certain portions of my usage will be reported back to them (or words to this effect)
I can connect flawlessly to my work Exchange account though. I can also connect just fine on my old Dell Streak (with Gingerbread 2.3.3) to this problematic account.
When I get a chance I will flash back to LA3 or an older KK build and try again, it's just a pain to re-install all my apps and settings. Given everything else is great. I have just worked around it for now by forwarding my mail to the other account.
Hi guys, I too have this problem, I can't managed to login into my exchange, using LA3 rom
