[Q] Exchage folders problem - change email apk - Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys,
Moving from WM to android is creating me more problems than expected
Apologies if I make a few noob questions.
I got a Galaxy tab, and everything works fine expect the email apk which is not able to show the folders of my corporate email account. I've seen that this problem affect other people/devices, but couldn't find a working solution.
Funny enough, I got my old Blackstone running XDAndroid working fine with the same exchange account and showing all my email folders and sub folders.
I've seen the $20 touchdown, but I'd prefer a native solution, so my questions are:
- Understand that after rooting I'll be able to replace the Samsung mail apk. What would be the procedure?
- I would like try the email apk from the XDAndroid. do you see any limitation for this apk to work on the tab.
- is it possible to get the HTC mail apk (sense) working in the Tab? does someone have a working apk?
- Any other solution to show the exchange email folders into our Tab?
Thanks in advance

Funny, i had same idea with HTC Mail.apk but found nothing on web.
So anybody want to port HTC Mail to Galaxy Tab?
~ from Tab using XDA App. ~

HTC's email.apk needs sense, and would be nearly impossible to port it without using a sense rom as a base.
Exchange(2007 SP2) and subfolders works great though on my tab.
Also i've noticed that there are some differences between my stock rom and overcome, so you could try that.

hi YoMark,
Can you pls let me know which Email version are you running? (just go to aplication/manage applications/all/Email.
Mine is version 2.2 and it is not showing the exchange folders/subfolders (exchange 2007)

I also have the email 2.2 apk and while mails and folders load fine, it takes ages (1 min at least) on startup and any switch and email apk is prone to force close (especially when switching between mails or switching to another app)
I reported this months ago, but no solution has been found yet... Only thing I hate about the tab, as I have 0 productivity with Emails

I am in the same boat, it's not showing any folders (Exch 2003). Anyone found a fix for this?

Help please? Nexus 1 Email troubles

Hello, I really need some help with some email problems here with my nexus 1 (att 3g vers).
It has NOT been rooted, and has android 2.2 installed (prefer to not root btw).
Anyway, the problem is in regard to the android EMAIL app (don't know it's name, but it's the icon of the envelope and yellow @ symbol in it).
I've set it up to handle my other email accounts (comcast and godaddy accounts) - not Gmail. Everything is setup finally and working fine...but for one problem...
once an email arrives, i get the notification...go to read it, BUT - then after reading it...it's then moved to the trash automatically (the trash in the email app that is, it's not removed from the server.
Driving me nuts - it's no longer in the inbox area of the email app, for each and every account). Each email just automatically disappears (goes to the trash) upon my reading it one time.
I can go to the trash folder and read, but this is ridiculous...shouldn't I be the one moving emails to the trash?
Can anyone suggest a fix here, or know of anything I can do to stop this?
I see no settings to change this...it's a serious bug.
Or...is there a better email app (one like this, as I do like the look and feel of this one built into android 2.2) that I should be using?
I downloaded K-9 email (but really hate it's look, feel and operation compared to this one).
Maybe there is something I'm not getting here though and need to change?
It's very strange that ea email would move to the trash upon 1st reading it.
thanks for any help here
also, i have tried searching this site for this problem with zero luck...
but i can't be the only one seeing this issue, right?
again: these accounts are my comcast and godaddy email accounts (not gmail, hotmail, etc).
thanks again
sorry man, I tried looking at my settings to see if theres anything I can suggest. Nada...
update to my Q:
Ok, doyeee
I think I know what's going on....
I was just setting comcast and godaddy accounts up and had the the email apps open on my PC at the same time while running tests.
When I did email tests, and having the PC email apps open for the same accounts...after they download to the PC is when they will go to the trash on the nexus email (not staying in INBOX on nexus when the PC email app has downloaded them).
This might be standard (I don't know as this is finally the first phone able to handle emails like this.
Hmm, i'd sure prefer it if all emails could remain in the inbox (or some other folder other than trash) as I can't hit "reply" once they're in the trash should I later want to reply to the same email with more info later on mobile.

[Q] Galaxy Rom JPK

Hi,
Not sure if anyone else is using this Rom, but I've just loaded up my Galaxy with it. Nice and fast, not sure about battery yet.. but one itchy problem is that Exchange Calendar Sync doesn't seem to work. In other words, I setup in Accounts and Sync and I can open email - email there, cool; I go calendar - I have to setup new account (which says I'm already configured).
Is this a Froyo issue, or is there a workaround to link the sync to Calendar (have the checkbox selected in sync config). I know there's alternate apps to purchase like touchdown but I see no point in spending $20 to do what the device should be able to do already..
Device: i9000
Rom: Samsung Froyo JPK
I am thinking of using JPH again
The battery life sucks

[Q] Samsung Mail App

Hello All. Am I the only one that thinks the built-in Samsung e-mail app is garbage? I have tried the ATT stock ROM's, as well as custom (right now I'm on Cognition), and the mail app is always the same. I hate the color scheme (blue on black), and it can't be changed. I prefer the default white background on most phone's inboxes. I also hate that all of my Exchange folders are jumbled together at the top of the screen. It makes it impossible to use. Most Android phones that I've seen (ie. the Incredible) only show the Inbox but let you hit Menu to choose another folder. I would definitely prefer this. I've also tried 3rd party apps such as Touchdown and Improved Mail, but don't like them. Bottom line, does anyone know if the Incredible's email app, or one from another phone can be moved over to the Galaxy and work properly? Or is there a way to customize the built-in app that I'm not aware of. Thanks!
Nope - was going to say use Touchdown
Yea I wasn't a big fan of the Touchdown app. I know that people are using an apk from another ROM (I think the Galaxy tab?), and loving it. But there were some issues with the usage. Anyone else have any ideas?
K-9?
10char
Yea I tried that but could never get it to work. I would always get a 404 error when trying to set up the account.
k9 works for me but setting up exchange is complicated. I was working well until the last release. Then I could not send emails. I reverted back to the previous version via Titanium Backup.
Tab Email is nice but no html for exchange 2003.
Improved Email works too but still had not support for Exchange 2003.
Stock email lacked html support also.
You might guess what my criteria is
while testing a rom from the I9000 forum, Darkyy's Doc 5.4, 5.5 and 6 I noticed the email client had support for html with exchange 2003.
What ever you decide on back it up. Titanium will restore your signature and accounts. Also a backup is good incase you goof and the email.apk is the same name. SQG Tools may restore the store for you. It also contains the tab version.
K9 for all of my personal email accounts and touchdown for the corporate stuff on exchange
Does Darky's rom email.apk have a better interface? (ie. not blue text on a black background, and no tabbed folders jumbled at the top of the screen)

I just got done using that, or really not being able to use it. I could send emails from it, but it wouldn't sync my inbox, but it sync anything older than 3 weeks stuff in sent mail. Switched back to stock because I don't have that many folders I ever use besides in/out and sent.
We need someone super talented to fix the galaxy tab one, it is pretty much exactly what you are looking for

[Q] IMAP Email not downloading

Hello, I do hope this is in the right place, if not apologies for that, please move it to the appropriate place.
I just received my Note yesterday, and one of the first things I did was to set up my emails. Gmail on email seems to work fine, however I have 2 emails from Godaddy for business. The 2 Godaddy emails load up the folders, however emails do not load. I am able to send emails, but not receive! (all set up as IMAP)
Currently I have set up K9 mail, and this is pretty good, but I would like to get all my mail together in the stock mail app.
I would appreciate if someone has seen this, I couldn't anyone matching my situation.

Which service provider are you using? I know AT&T requires and Enterprise Data Package to access corporate email and such. Have you tried syncing while on WiFi to see if is is service related??
Hi, Im actually in the UK, using T-mobile, We purchased our private domains from Godaddy. I used the emails on the same network using HTC Desire HD, and I had no problems. As far as I can tell it seems like a software issue? or maybe Godaddy is incompatible with Samsung galaxy devices?
I did try using Wifi mode only, but no difference. Thanks for your reply
Hi just wondering I'm facing the same issue that some corporate exchange emails are having?

I'm just wondering if it's possible for someone to provide me the email app apk? I to perhaps reinstall,
I spoke to godaddy customer services but they were unable to help, suggesting it could be my phone, or samsung servers.
Please help
Exact Same Problem
I have exact same issue. Bought a samsung galaxy note and everything else seems fine, except for my godaddy accounts .
Any solution on your side?
I've tried setting up forwarding for my godaddy email acc to my gmail account, but I faced another problem which is whenever I sent out email from my samsung note, it seems to end up having duplicate emails in my sent folder. Only happens for godaddy account
This is driving me crazy
Hey I guess Im glad its not just my phone, I got no responses here. Godaddy werent much help either. So I did some digging and it seems like an issue with godaddy imap emails with samsung servers. Pop3 works but seriously outdated!
Apparently people using Galaxy s2 are facing the same issue. Which suggests a samsung side issue? Who knows
Im using K9 for the time being, which isn't too bad but would be nice to use stock app.
Keep me posted if u do come to a solution.

Well I guess either I need to spend money changing company hosting my email or live with it for the time being (sucks as I have signed up for 10 years!) .
Will surely update you once there's a solution.
So, this morning, i just opened the stock email, and it started to download my godaddy email messages! Looks like someone decided to look into this issue and fixed it!
Anyway give it a try, good luck! :thumbup:

Thanks! Tried it and it worked!
Happy New Year!
Im still having this issue but with outlook live accounts.
i wonder if what godaddy have done can be repeated by microsoft!
Godday imap doesn't work with stock email app
Same problem here:
I can see all my go daddy email folders but no messages ever load.
I have tried every setting and configuration possible but no dice.
Is anyone else still having this issue?
Mine seems to working ok,I hope this issue hasn't resurfaced.
Are you using the latest firmware? You may just need to update
I have 2.3.6
I hope its fixed in a future update.

[Q] Deleted mail is delivered again, stock mail

Hi,
When I delete a mail in the stock mail app, it is delivered again from my ISP a few minutes later.
Anyone knows about some "secret" settings, I can't find any in the app that solve this problem.
Or recommend another app?
Thanks in advance!
Ruben
I'm having the same problem.
Changed from IMAP to POP just to solve the problem for now.
Sadly not the solution but i works better now.
setup email with exchange server active sync, b'coz pop i think not provide push service, you hav to set check mail frequency.
Dsable auto sync off in acc
Go to Email - entre gmail credential - select manual setup - select exchange active sync - keep user ID n PW as it is n add m.google.com in server field, finish setup with rest of as per your desire
dr.ketan, I don't think exchange activesync is an option here, it's not gmail.
I'm having the same issue. I think it sometimes (rarely) works. What's worse, is that it marks the mail read. I did not have this issue with the mail app on my htc desire hd.
There are various bugs open at code.google.com (I can't link as I'm new), but the comments are a huge mess and I didn't ever figure it out. I tried K9 mail briefly but wasn't very impressed either. Let us know if you can get this fixed
Another gud push mail is seven, now a days disappeared from market. But earlier i hav attached smwhr in xda, search seven 7.54 really it was nice.
my old streak 2.2.2 with stock email app use to do this. Not a clue why.
Sometimes I would get the same email 3-4 times in a row. Maybe it is something to do with Android itself?
Many thanks for your reply!
I'm glad?, that it not was just me, because I spent a lot of time to find an answer. It works fine on my old Desire.
Ruben
Same for me it worked perfectly on tho HTC Desire but not on the Galaxy Note. Quite strange I think.
