Email Accounts w/ UNL3ASH3D 1.4 - Motorola Droid Bionic

I love the UNL3ASH3D ROM so far, but it altered the account setup. I can only do gmail, yahoo, or corporate sync. This is a big negative for me. Any ideas how to fix it? I need to be able to add an IMAP account by server name.
I'm using a third party app but not that happy with it.

I had the same issue, and currently there is no fix. So I went back to stock ROM.
Not happy as I was very please with the Unl3ash3d ROM. I sent DroidTh3ory a PM and this is what he said.
Thanks, im glad you are liking it. There was a issue with the email app but I do have it taken care of.

I have checked every day on the Unl3ash3d thread for an update but nothing so far.

I thought I was the only one and was going crazy. I started using the K9 E-Mail app, but it was draining battery (possibly)
Switched back to stock rom as well, i loved the ROM otherwise... But I NEEDED the mail app, I was most comfortable with it too, and able to change the settings on it to only sync every 3 hours, which saves tremendous battery

Ya, I am currently using the K9 app as well. Hopefully there is an update soon to fix it.

I can't figure out how to switch accounts in the stock email unless I get a new email on the other account!
Something I am missing?

Contact syncing

For the life of me I can't get some of my contacts to sync to google, instead of just being phone contacts. Any idea how to do this? I'm trying to get the contacts of a 2.1 sense ROM to sync to google so they will appear on my AOSP 2.2 setup. Thanks in advance.

I haven't used 2.1 since before summer, so I'm rusty with it, but when you edit a contact, can't you change whether it's saved to the phone or Google account?
I haven't seen that option anywhere. Ive been using aosp but nanded back to see why I was missing contacts and didnt see that option...

I am in the same boat...haven't used 2.1 for quite awhile, but I know there is an option somewhere. Positive.
One other way, if you absolutely can't get them to switch doing it on your phone, add them online and delete them from the phone (the ones that are phone contacts). But I know the option is there to change them somewhere. Maybe I will flash back just to find out where
Give those contacts a email address, even if its a bogus one. They will sync once you do that, or at least they did on mine.

Facebook Sync Solution

I'm only just beginning to test, but a new app seems to have been released:
https://market.android.com/details?id=org.watto.program.android.sync.facebook&feature=search_result
Figured it might be useful to those that want to see contact details (not just the pictures).
So far the app seems to work perfectly with only one exception... it sync's the birthday info as "Event" in the contact account instead of "Birthday".
The issue with that is that apps/widgets that track/display birthdays don't pick it up properly.
I sent an email to the dev, new app so may be something he will quickly fix. If not, the source code is actually available on his site, which is nice.
Yeah, I'm using it now, it's working well the only thing is... to keep the pictures synced completely you need to "join" contacts with the Facebook contact being the primary contact. Which usually means that my contacts all have stupid names because I have stupid friends.
So I'm using Sync my pics as well.

Dev has already uploaded a fixed version for the Events/Birthday issue and emailed me about it.
Super responsive and is still working perfectly.
Warning. This app eats battery life. It doesn't close. I'd much rather run syncmypix every couple days then have this running constantly, it was at 26%!

Hrm, sure you're talking about the right app? This sets up a sync service, there isn't a standalone app or anything. It syncs my data and then doesn't do anything for 24 hours (you can pick the frequency).
Anyway, no such issue on my device at least.
That hasn't been my experience. Set it to sync less often

[Q] (Q) Android Market keeps changing default account

So I have two different gmail accounts on my LG Thrill. (One Business, One Personal)
The market app keeps changing the default account to my business account.
Makes it harder to keep up with updates.
Is there any way to fix this?
Sorry if this is a newb question, I can't figure it out.
When you first set up the phone...which account did you use during set up. mine always defaults to that account and never changes.
If you need to change that...the only way i am aware of is a factory reset ...or manually switch (which until now...i had no idea you could do)

Thats what odd is that my personal account was the one that was set up first, yet it keeps trying to change to the other.

It seems to be a market issue right now. It's happening on a couple of my phones right now as well, including a stock Thrill and CM7 Atrix and X10

Same on G2x
Oh good, my G2x with CM7 has been doing the same thing. Thought I was going to have to wipe. Hopefully this gets fixed soon.
Agreed. It's really annoying having to keep switching back to my primary account. I don't want to make any purchases until it's fixed. Don't want to risk the purchase going to an incorrect account.
Sent from my MB860 using Tapatalk
Unless you've added a credit card to the other account(s), then there will be no risk on making purchases under the wrong account.
If you're that paranoid, you can always activate the PIN protection so it forces you to enter a PIN code to authorise an app purchase.
same here!! keep defaulting to the other account... any news on a fix for this yet??

It seems to be every time there is an update to the market app. Just updated again last night. Not sure on a fix yet.
What's the latest version of the market?
Im glad its not just me.. Im having the same problem. The account I used to set the phone up is my main account but it keeps switching to my other account and its fustrating. I dont even have a thrill I have a HTC desire Z. I guess this is a cross platform thing.
It started with me when I updated to 2.3.6, it could be the market though. But I noticed that in sync settings that my accounts are in alphabetical order now, and it switches to the top one. Which is also my google apps business account, and my original account is on the bottom, which is my personal. Rooted Nexus S, stock 2.3.6 rom and kernel.
Update
Market version 3.1.5
In the market, accounts menu, my accounts display in my original installed order. It defaults to the wrong account when it notifies that there is an app update.

same problem here on an SGS2 @ 2.3.5
Same problem for me on my Droid 3 (which is rooted, but running the stock flavor of the OS). I found where some folks on the official Android Market forum have a thread going that describes this same problem. Hopefully it will get fixed soon. In the meantime, I will probably just removed my secondary Google accounts for now, since I rarely actually need to use them.
-SR-
Same thing on my Thunderbolt. I have 3 accounts. my personal (first to set up and my "primary" online account), then my 'professional' account (tied to things like LinkedIn, used for resumes and such) and a third 'random' account used for things like 1 time deals and such.
I had root with stock and running CM7. on both ROMs i'd still have my perofessional account be the "primary" account in the market. frustrating.

I'm using AquaMail. It is very powerfull email client.
Enhanced Email is pretty impressive, think it's on sale too... Based on stock, but don't let that put you off

If you want non-stock, check out mail Droid. They've got a free ad supported one you can check out to see before purchase, I personally prefer it to stock based clients. I'm still using free version after 3 months or so, seen no need to upgrade yet.

for me - K9 Mail
Exchange by Touchdown gives you all you need
Since the original Gapps mail client sucked big time in many i9000 ROMs i started to look out for a really good free option.
I found K9 mail!
It is as fast as my pc clint thunderbird wiping the floor with email.apk the whole day
Really great email client with loads of features which i mostly don´t need.

What's your email app?

I've tried 20 apps and I don't really like most of them.
What are ppl using?
I honestly liked the old 4.1 stock app and want something similar.
I want manual sync, but I want the app to auto sync upon opening, which surprisingly none of them do. I know u just have to pull down to sync, but hey, one less step, is one less step.
I also am having trouble finding an app where u can easily delete from the app. I think I'm deleting emails throughout the day, only to find them all still there when I go to hotmail on my computer.
When I hit delete, I want it to delete, not go to trash so I have to open an entirely different folder and delete that for it to really be gone.
I'm just going to keep trying them, but if you guys have any suggestions, I'd appreciate it.

I use OWA Webmail app. As my employer has prevented me configuring mail apps for our exchange server. This one works though!
try this Email Mail Exchange @Blue
Have you tried Mailbox by Dropbox? I've been using Inbox by Google since it came out. I like the idea but it can get confusing at times. Gonna give Mailbox a try since it comes highly recommended.
Aquamail
I'm actually using Lollipop Gmail, considering it now supports other mail accounts natively.
Of course, it doesn't have any fancy features... But I enjoy it. It works well.

Profimail for corporate mail and Inbox for Gmail.
It will be great when the guys release the feature of getting mail from Exchange.
