[Q] Email programs not working... - Nook Color General

The default rooted Email app worked great the first few days after rooting but now it just kicks me back to my email listing if I attempt to open any of the actual emails.
I installed Touchdown email as a test and it exhibit same behavor - Email shows up fine, syncs fine but when I tap an email to open it I'm right back to the emails listing again.
I've perused various forums with no success... Any ideas?

I had the same problem. So I copied over the email.apk, calendar.apk, and calendarprovers.apk from my Samsung moment 2.1 phone to the nook and it has been working.

Could you post a copy of your working Email.apk? I'm having the same problem with my exchange account and couldn't for the life of me get k9 mail to work.
Ended up getting a mostly working workaround by setting mail to check only every half hour and only saving 3 days worth of messages. My guess was that it had something to do with the fact that the default client downloads everything including large attachments.

You need to copy it over to the /system/app/ folder and make sure it has the same permissions of the other apks there. Then reboot. It should work. It wasn't ment to be installed manually

Worked great, I can now open emails. I wasn't aware that particular .apk's installed different ways. I'm assuming that's a "system app" type thing compared to "market" apps?
Thanks for your help!

Yep, system apps I guess are not signed with a certificate since they are system apps. All other apks have to be signed.

configure it manually (messaging -> new account) instead of using htc assitant.
anyways, imap works just fine here
To use gmail with imap you got to activate imap in gmailsettings.

Have you tried deleting the account on your phone and adding it again - weird problem - worked for me

yes i did.weird thing is i changed imap.gmail.com to pop,gmail.com and i click next...etc.when i finished all settings i check it again it wasnt pop.gmail.com.it was imap.gmail.com.i am quite sure something is wrong in the rom.pop account is gray-out,it does not allow me to choose pop account.
Try to delete the Inbox map on your SD card if it's there, then you're able to sent email again.
when you deleted the account did you soft reset? that may well solve it.
imap is working fine here with gmail.
not sure why you want to use pop3 instead of imap4? any specific reason?

no i have no reason for pop3 but imap doesn't work properly.i dont understand what is wrong?still it gives same error when i try to send email.i can recive mail but i cant send.
I see, that doesn't guarantee working for pop3 too
Btw, I've been using Gmail mobile (java apps) since it came out, you may want to try it

[Q] Can't delete old emails from Gmail

I rooted my Nook Color using Auto-nooter 3.0. Everything is working fine, with one acception, I can't delete emails from Gmail. When I push the button to delete the email, I get the confirmation dialogue, but when I confirm the delete, the Nook Color returns me to the home screen for my launcher, but when I go back into Gmail, the old emails are still there. Am I doing something wrong, or is there a way to correct this problem?
I had this same problem on my phone. If you go under nook color tools, applications, manage applications and go down to the gmail app and clear data and cache it should fix the problem at least it did on my phone.
When I go to nookcolor tools>manage application, I have no entry for gmail at all, but I do have the gmail application installed.
What you could do is star the message and then delete it once it's been starred.

Gmail not updating with Server correctly

So, I searched and didn't find an answer for this. So, maybe you can help.
If I open a Gmail message on my phone and delete it, the message still sits on the server and will be there when I go to my computer later on. I've tested the hell out of it and I know its updating because the emails are coming to me quickly.
I am running the lastest leaked ICS. Thanks guys for your help.

odd, I can only assume by latest leak you mean the 213 and have you updated all your apps, including gmail? FYI, my gmail version is 4.0.5

[Q] Exchange active sync

Help Please
My contacts don't sync with exchange server 2007 sp1. Mail & Calendar work flawlessly. Don't want to use Touchdown.
I searched all over but didn't find a solution. Thanks
I don't have any issues. You could try deleting the account, clearing the data in the individual apps and then setting it up again.

Thanks. I tried that and it didn't work. Also reset the device and no luck. All my other devices work
they wont sync out all your contacts but when you type in the to field it will search for them.

I have a similar issue. Contacts will sync the first time, but never again after that. One trick I used to make it work was to initially set my sync at five minutes and to let it sit for an hour until it all synced (I have close to 2000 contacts). After it was done syncing I switched to push.
I switched to the kitkat email/exchange for a little while, it worked much better. I was having problems with unread counts so I changed back.

I gave up and use Touchdown for the contacts and the native clients for mail & calendar. The only drawback is I have to enter a nes contact in the Touchdown app and the native app. I hope this will work in kitkat

not sure this works, but are you sure that those contacts are selected to show up under your contacts? I'm sure they are but i thought i would throw it out there since someone said that it will search for them in the address bar but not show them up under contacts. Might jsut be a settings button for that.
On another note, i saw in another email thread that someone set their phone up with the certificates to ssl/tls (accept all certificates) instead of the stock ssl/tls setting. (not sure the ssl/tls is right but its some set of letters lol).

Thanks for your response. I have all my contacts in the primary contacts folder. I even got rid of the subfolders because I know that jb doesn't do subfolders. I couldn't even get an initial sync for contacts. It won't find them in the address bar either

did you try erasing all accounts and then doing the certificates thing i just mentioned above. the guy i saw had your same issues and thats what he did. He didn't know if it had to do with that or not but he said his contacts started populating after that.

[Q] Email failure after disabling magazine

Month old note 3.
Disabled magazine and now get email message "unfortunately, email has stopped" I see from threads elsewhere that this is the issue.
I DO NOT WANT magazine. Is there someway to eliminate all the junk on this phone without killing the apps that work. I thought my Atrix was bad but it isn't nearly as crammed as this phone. I have 26 apps turned off, and some more that wont give me the option. I use this device for work, not play, and only want the apps I need.
Samsung please fix!!! Give us an option to unload all the crap with the next update. You are killing a really nice phone.
Anyone have a work around??????
THX

What email service are you trying to use? If it's hotmail or yahoo, use the Outlook, or yahoomail app instead of stock email app. Gmail works fine with magazine crap removed.

Thanks I switched to the gmail and yahoo apps and for those accounts. Need to find a suitable outlook replacement. The corporate sync that came with phone still crashes and burns.
Thanks and Peace!
I have that also... I froze Magazine with TiBU. When I get the email crash, it will often open the 2nd or 3rd time.

Mine also opens on the 2nd or 3rd try but it is too much of pain. I haven't had time to try another outlook app yet (don't know which is a good one).I hope they fix it soon, my wife needs a new phone for work too, and if this isn't resolved we wont get a Samsung.

No haven't tried anything for outlook yet. The only mail account I have to move is the one on a corporate exchange server. Need to make sure what ever I substitute is secure (as well as can be expected that is). Nothing cloud based.
