[Kinda Solved] Email Notification Error Popup - Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I searched this forum and I can not seem to find anything that is pointing to my problem. But maybe my search-foo is not up to snuff. That aside, the error that I am getting is an android toaster notification of "Connection Error (<Account Name>)" I have re-done account setup 3 times with no luck. The odd thing is that I am able to send and receive email just fine, the annoying popup just keeps coming up.
Current setup
Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1
Honeycomb 3.1 software
Exchange 2003
Corporate Email Client (Builtin to Honeycomb)

So after contacting several customer support staff sites and organizations, they said that they had seen issues where my problem was associated with a mail message that either a) only had a link in the body or b) had no subject text.
As I had like 400 mails sync'd over 3 days, I was not about to go through all of them, so what I did was remove the account (to flush all the mail) and then re add it with only 1 day sync'd. While the error was still present after this I decided to just let it ride until the following day (today). After my sync removed all of the messages minus 1 day sync'd I am good to go.
So now it would seem that I need to pay attention to the mails that come in to try and help trap the issue. I know in my organization people send emails sans subject all the time so that is going to be a rather large PITA but I think I can work around it. The link one is also a bit of a downer but again something I think I can work around if needed.
Hope this helps someone or at the very least some developer will come along and see this and fix it . Anyone know where you can go to report a bug like this?

So some further updates incase anyone else stumbles upon this. Curly brackets in the subject will cause an error '{' or '}'

Contact names not being shown correctly on incoming SMSes

Interesting problem this, it seems to have just started to happen out of the blue a few days ago.
The problem, in a nutshell, is that whatever I try to do, be it recreate the entries in the Address Book, create a duplicate entry with the same name, use the O2 Plus feature which lets you save a contact to your address book and make a new entry like that... Whatever I do, whenever I receive a new text message, the person's name isn't shown as the sender, just their mobile number in international format.
Even if I have that contact in my phone already, with their number in the same format as is shown on the text message (+447...), their name doesn't show at all. It's really starting to annoy me, as I've not added or removed anything to my XDA and yet this problem isn't going away.
Argh! Anybody have any ideas as to what's wrong? I might ring O2's oddly-named Data Support and quiz them about this tomorrow, too...
Cheers again everyone,
Christopher
When you search the forum for "CallerID" you'll find a few people asking about the same problem, mainly when receiving calls however not SMS' and some suggestions.
Do you have photos attached to your contacts? I'd try reinstalling the CallerID_Alpine_... from your Extended_Rom, if all fails it might be easiest to restore a backup (if you got one that is).
hth,

I did some further testing today, borrowed a mate's phone and rang mine... Bizarre, the first time my phone was rung, it would take approx. 30 seconds for the name of the caller to show, the number showed up fine though. Subsequent dials would result in the name showing up almost instantly (as usual)...
.... Veeeeeeery odd. I'll just dash off and try reinstalling this CallerID cab...

Email disappearing after full download

Noticed something yesterday with my POP3 Gmail account.
When I received an email, there's a link to download the entire message. I click it and it goes into a state that says it will download the rest of the message next time I receive email.
So, I hit the send/receive option and, sure enough, the entire message is loaded.
I finish reading the entire message and go back to the inbox. After a few moments, the email goes away. At least I think it does. I looked in the deleted folder, not there.
I increased the Message download limit to Entire Message so I won't have to go thru this.
Does anyone know why the message would be removed after downloading the entire message and then reading it? Where did the message go?
I have the same problem also with gmail its giving me errors saying my settings are wrong but I haven't touched anything
I'm seeing this as well. Although it doesn't always happen. Any fix yet?
It's a known issue and hope google will fix it soon
Try recent:[email protected] instead of just [email protected] not 100%

oh i love you. i setup another account and told it to use automatic setup. it put the "recent" there and I removed it. I will try.
I wish google would create a setting to let me pop only what gets in to my inbox. If something gets labeled out of there, I don't want it down to my phone.
Hi guys i have v recently got a vario 3 and i am not very clued up on its uses as yet, i was hoping for a little help?
I want to use my googlemail on my handset and i have allowed the phone to check for auto settings. this has been done and then nothing appears in the inbox.
At first i thought it was because it wont show old messages however it doesnt show new either.
I have tried to send and email from the phone to myself and it sends fine and will come up on my laptop but it will not show on the phone? Can anyone help with this at all??
Any advice would be appreciated?
Ah so its a bug ..... I thought I was going mad!

the stuck in drafts problem

Hi all
A quick search yields me no decent results for my problem here.
I've posted to various other forums and even to google code about this issue. Plenty of other people have this problem, I know i'm not crazy.
G1 on tmobile, stock firmware.
When i send an email with an attachment (say, from the camera), if i move too quickly to send, the email will get stuck in the drafts folder, without the to, subject or message, and will never properly send. Sometimes i can open the message from drafts and re send it and it might work, most times i can't even get any send buttons or interaction with a half-sent message.
I can even make it happen by writing and sending a regular message too quickly. what crap!
This is intensely frustrating, and i've had several important messages sit in my drafts folder for days until i realized it didn't get sent.
Supposedly, a new os will be pushed to us early adopters soon, but who knows how long or if that will fix the problem?
My question to you all: How do you deal with this problem? Do certain custom mods take care of this issue? Which ones?
I'm tempted to install the newest Cyanogenmod, but really, all i want is for this one problem to go away, and this seems like a lot of work to do just for decent email.
Any suggestions?
I suppose i could install a 3rd party email app like K9 and read with that, but i'd rather not if there's a better way to deal with this...
Thanks!

[Q] Bug In S Planner

I've found a bug in the S Planner app. If you add participants to a meeting, and say you don't want to send them an e-mail, the app sends it anyway.
Does anyone know how to fix this, or know where I can report this to Samsung?
On a somewhat similar note (pun intended ) , if you get a meeting request, when you want to accept, you don't get the option to not send the answer (unlike in outlook). As I'm not able to sync with my client's system I always forward all things related to meeting requests to my own company's email adress. I need to accept them in order to get them noted in my agenda on the note, but I don't want that email adress to send the answer back. Any solutions?
P.S. No intention to hijack this thread, but it looks like a similar topic (sort of)
I am pulling my hair out on this. HOW do you respond to meeting requests in S Planner?
By clicking ok in the request.
Never mind, I figured it out. Need to have an exchange server, not Google apps.

Bug with email client on G900AUCU2ANG3

I just upgraded by AT&T Galaxy S5 to G900AUCU2ANG3 earlier today and I noticed a new bug in the email client.
When you put a checkmark next to an email and then click the trash can icon to delete it, or choose to delete an email while reading it, you can't open another email from the email list until the "1 deleted." notification on the bottom of the screen goes away. You can press on another email as much as you want, but the app will only actually open the email once the notification has disappeared.
This is a new bug, it wasn't always like this. Unfortunately, it slows down my flow as I keep having to wait for that notification disappears to continue reading emails.
Does anyone know how we can inform Samsung of this bug?
Oddly enough, this may be intentional rather than a bug. Prior to this update, the only way for me to reliably delete an email was to swipe to the left on the message in the message list. Now that I have updated, all the different ways to delete a message work. It seems that the phone is communicating with your email server to delete the message(s) and nothing else can be done until that is complete. This is just my theory.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Hmm, interesting theory.
However, the phone should be capable of doing two things at once: allowing me to read another email while it's busy deleting another one.
