NX7 and Exchange Server email - Nexus 7 General

So I was going crazy trying to reconnect my email service between my NX7 and my work exchange server. Yes, it worked at first, but then just stopped. I made sure that the partnerships in the OWA version of M$ Outlook under options >> phones didn't exceed 10 (that stops things dead). But once it died, it would show as a partnership in OWA, but the 'Corporate email' would not sync on the Nexus.
Fortunately, I had a Touchdown license from the Adam ...bingo back in business. Great product ... better calendar as well.
So, if you have this problem it is because JellyBean has a problem setting up with Exchange Server, and Touchdown is a great solution.

I haven't had any Exchange problems. I used to have Touchdown, back before Android really supported Exchange. It was good at the time, but now it kind of blows. I guess to each their own. I'll stick with the built in support instead.

PUSH email w/o exchange ?

I'm using Outlook 2007 on my desktop with 3 POP email accounts, calendar, tasks, etc.
Is there a fairly simple way to sync and push email to my Tilt without having exchange server available ?
Thanks,
DLD
Direct push is for exchange 2003 & 2007 only, it has nothing to do with the outlook client. Why don't you setup the pop3 on your phone? On my phone I have 1 exchange account, and 2 pop3 accounts, and it works great.
You could always try Emoze - http://www.emoze.com/ - some people love it, some people hate it. Not tried it myself.
Other options include using Live Mail - which supports push in WM6, or setting up a Mail2Web account. You could then create a rule in Outlook to forward any received mail to your new address. You might be able to configure Live Mail to pull from other Pop3 mailboxes (I know Gmail does this, but I don't know about Live Mail). That way all three Pop accounts end up in your Live Mail bucket, and you sync just that one account with your phone.
Any good?

I could do that, but then I'd have to manually check for mail.
It would just be nice to have blackberry-like mail arrival.

you can tell the phone to check every 5 mins for emails? that's just as regular as blackberry. battery sapping tho. its in the advanced section of the messaging setup. you can do it on symbian nokias too.

Unless it is an unlocked version, there is a client ready to install on the Tilt that does the same thing. ExpressMail

I like the concept of XpressMail (using SMS notification, therefore good for battery life), though I've had little luck getting push to work. It rarely, if ever, worked on my MPX220. I eventually accepted the fact that I'd simply have to do a send/receive when I was interested in seeing if there was new mail. Now that I have the Tilt, I'm having the same reliability issues. It HAS worked... I've had a couple messages show up all on their own, but for the most part, they don't. I've gone into the online configuration @ https://xpressmail.cingular.com/, and found that I had not only one, but two devices set up (my MPX220 set up twice). I deleted both of those, but for some reason can't seem to get the Tilt added. I can go through the process, but once I select it, it just never gets added to the list. The list of emails online is correct, so obviously the xpress mail app is properly getting the emails from my mail provider (comcast), but it's either not sending out the SMS messages, or they aren't being interpreted correctly by the phone.
I had a situation where i needed to syn with 2 exchange servers, and i didnt' want to run a desktop app.
Google for "seven beta" and get the OWA Out of office. You can set it up to sync only email and it works like push off of the OWA of exchange. If you don't have exchange they have a desktop version. Seven is the same people who develop the xpress mail for cingular.

Multiple Exchange Activesync Accounts

Now I'm already betting I know the answer to this, having tried to do it for so many years on WM, but I thought it's worth trying again now I'm with Android!!
Anyway, what I want to do is be able to sync with two different Exchange servers (my work and home servers, that is). I thought I might be able to do this by using two separate Activesync clients, so I set up the HTC Mail client to sync with my personal email on my own server and then downloaded Touchdown to handle my work account. It's nearly perfect, in that it works and I have two separate Exchange accounts pushing updates to one device. Take that Windows Mobile!
But, whilst I am more than happy having two separate inboxes for my email. what I really want is both calendars appearing in the HTC calandar. I don't want to check for appointments in multiple places, after all. Seeing as HTC's calendar already checks across several different calendar sources, I'm guessing this is, at least technically, possible.
So does anyone know of any other Exchange Activesync applications for Android that would do what I want - or am I still hoping for too much from Exchange?
(On a separate - but related - note, I nearly fainted when I discovered Outlook 2010 could have multiple, active Exchange accounts in the SAME PROFILE! I've only been waiting for that feature since Outlok 2000!)
I've posted a Touchdown feature request about being able to have two different Exchange accounts. I also mentioned that it would be great to sync between the accounts as well.
Please join and post your thoughts at http://groups.google.com/group/nitrodesk/browse_thread/thread/68c0e38c899934d9. The more we are that are requesting this feature the quicker it may be implemented.

Sync your Touchdown account's calendar with your phone through Gmail. Downside is it needs a pc online with Outlook+Google Calendar sync running
Outlook->Google Cal sync -> Gmail calendar -> phone's calendar
Slow response from me, but thanks for the suggestions.
However, as it seems the Hero will be getting Android 2.0 and that supports multiple Exchange accounts, I think I'll just wait for that to come out. Seems the simpler option and I've been waiting for a phone to have this functionality since WM2003 - so I think I can wait a little bit longer!

[Q] Exchange server (ActiveSync) and S Planner/Contacts

I tried to configure my Galaxy Note to work with an Exchange server. The emails sync fine, but contacts and calendar do not show up at all on the phone. Anyone knows what I need to do to get my contacts and calendar to show up?
Thanks
Wow, deafening silence... lets ask it this way, did anyone manage to sync contacts and/or the S Planner with an Exchange server?
I would like to use the google account only for the Android Market and sync everything with the exchange server at work.
Works fine for me, syncing OTA with an exchange 2010 SP2 server. Email, contacts, calendar, and even tasks.
Works fine for me too...

Worked fine for a few weeks, but having the same problems. Doesn't sync anymore with exchange. Now using Moxier and it works great but I really mis the S Planner together with S Memo. Also the graphics of Moxier is very simple, but it works. Would be great if there was a solution for syncing well again. Strange though that it worked fine for about 2 weeks.
It's a problem that I had faced since I got my note since last Nov. It started with "IRM not supported" error after syncing fine with Exchange 2007. Read more from my thread in my signature (if I remembered putting there). If not, search with the words
"IRM not supported". I'm with LA1 now and still have problem, latest being missing emails. While waiting for new firmware, I'm relying on TouchDown for my emails.

Can you give some guidelines. What is the name of you tasks in exchange and the name in s-planner. I can send task to exchange but I canĀ“t received.

[Q] Exchange email with Eclipse 1.3.1

I installed Eclipse 1.3.1 few days ago and I love it. Unfortunately when I try to set up an account for my work's Exchange server, I get the dreaded "This server requires security features your phone does not support" error.
It doesn't matter if I try to create the account from the email app or the add accounts screen - same result. Is there a potential work-around for this or am I cursed to stock?
Use Touchdown. It's a pretty good exchange client that I use. Works with Eclipse
Enhanced Email is cheaper than the others, and IMHO better too. Been a happy user of EE for years now.

[Q] multiple exchange accounts

On my old nexus S I am able to setup up multiple exchange accounts native.
I do an internship in 2 company 2 days in a week and also work in another company 3days in a week and I'm also planning to get office 365 for business for my private company (might sound complicated but it's workable). Doing the maths I need to be able to setup 3 exchange accounts wich works perfectly on my old nexus. (in fact need to set up 4 but I can live without the 4th one).
The important part is mail for 3 of them and callendar for 2 accounts (and if possible see google callendar + exchange callendars in 1 view based on colors) all my contact are on gmail since they overlap and gmail makes it easy.
I was setting up my phone on the htc website "https://start.htcsense.com" but at the end when I reached setting up accounts I'm only able to setup 1 exchange account is this on the device the same or not. Already preordered my htc one so would love to know if I have to cancel my order or not before it arives

It is possible to set up multiple exchange accounts using the HTC email application on the HTC one.
The application in itself is graphically beautiful and a pleasure to use.....however it is functionally lacklustre. Managing folders is a nightmare, the colour of each account cannot be edited etc etc
Do yourself a favour, buy Enhnanced Email from the market and use that.
I also use a pay application for calendar (Business calendar).
Alternatively...wait until an AOSP rom is released...and you will have the same identical software experience you had with the nexus device.
thx for answer if I atleast can set up multiple accounts then thats good
I will look into those aps once I have my one

It is a shame that HTC did not refine their email app. Because it looks fantastic and is really smooth.
BUT
You cannot hide/unhide folders. Visualising emails is a pain as it defaults back to the "all messages" option...and thus if you have multiple accounts....and receive over 100 emails a day...it looks like a mess.
Enhanced email does not look pretty and the Dev has not been too active as of late...but it is functionally faultless in handling multiple accounts and calendars.
Touchdown from nirodesk would be perfect...except...they do not support syncing multiple account simultaneously.
K9 no native exchange support (WebDav does not work on Exchange 2010 servers)
Moxier Email has native exchange support but, imho, is just an inferior version of Enhanced email.
I will certainly look into enhanched email
I liked my old setup with native exchange mail client on my nexus since it looked like the gmail client (with much less features but still worked) and it worked perfectly with google calendar
but I'm willing to give sense a try even if I have to buy some new apps
