Hello,
Anyone any idea what is wrong?
I just got my Diamond.
I use vodafone.
and i think i have everything set up correct.
i can go on the internet, watch youtube, see the weather.
Butttt.. when i try to send/recieve my email from gmail, it say that it cant connect with the current connection settings.
What could i be doing wrong?
i use IMAP and checked the settings on the gmail help site.
Thank you..
don't use IMAP.I set it up by just giving my gmail account user name and password and it receives the emails from my gmail inbox

It depends on whether you've activated IMAP in your Gmail and you should not let the phone auto detect your email settings- do it manually.
One other cause may be a proxy on your connection. When I first ran the auto operator setup, my POP3 email didnt work until I removed the proxy (still don't understand why)

It's best if you delete the account and then create a new one. When you create a new account, the first screen asks for your email address and password and then the second screen asks you if it should try and detect the settings automatically. THAT's where you need to uncheck it so you can enter your settings in manually on the following page.

Thats what i thought..
problem is..... the option is not presented...
it says:
Settings are found for gmail.com
press next to complete the set up and to download email.
but there is no box to check or uncheck
Problem fixed!!!
I was looking for the proxy like mentiond above...
I disabled it.
Now it works!!!
Thanks for the help guys!

You're right
I just tried to add a Gmail account and the same thing happened...
Glad the proxy thing helped. It drove me nuts in the beginning.

if your want to use gmail imap, you have to enter an incorrect email address first ([email protected]) and then edit it after, also I recommend using http://www.mobipush.com/ (push email) set to download your emails every 10-15 mins, you will get incredible battery life

Not true., it sets up as IMAP automatically.
And turn off vodafone proxy, and after setting up account, go to accountsettings again, and at last page under keyboard is 'advanced options', be sure it shows the right connection to be used !!
Downloading schedule can be set up in outlook mobile, and turn off push
Hi have seena couple of posts but with no solution.
My problem is whenever i go to check my googlemail through my home wifi on my diamond all it does it pop up with the incoming email password screen and thats all.
when this was set up originally there was no problems and have done no upgrades or flashing since this.
i have installed diamond tweaks and advanved config manager but cant see anything within these that would stop me .
Have logged in to google mail on desktop pc and changed my password to elimate password name problems but still no joy.
ANY IDEA GUYS??? im stumped.
p.s obviousli i have delted acount on numeros occasions and rsoft reset then rre added account and used auto detection account setup and done it the manual way.
am on swiftys 5.6rom
mine works fine,
it auto detects settings after i write the email address and press next..
i have v6 swiftblade rom
gmail not working
It has been treated a few times in those forums
It's a WM bug
Only work around :
Delete the gmail account on your diamond and create a new one with a DIFFERENT name (gmail01, gmail02...)
I had the same problem and this is the only way i could solved it...
Thanks guys but i just sorted it.
IF anyone has this problem then this is what you must do . Login to your google mail from a desktop or laptop and enter your settings.
click configure outlook (even though your not using outlook ) then there a common issues tab near the top of the screen.
The first one in the list is "Repeatedly prompted for your username and password or 'invalid credentials' error."
To sort this you must hit the " Clear the captcha "tab .
Then connect via you phone wirelessly abd do the same .
(personally i didnt ave to do it on my phone as it cleared the problem straight away) but it does say to do this on the device your having trouble logging in on .
Definitely sorted it as i have done nothing else that could take credit for it working and it hasnt been working for ages .
cheers hope this helps

I'm in my settings in Gmail, and I'm in the common issues, but I can't seem to find the "Repeatedly prompted for your username and password or 'invalid credentials' error."
Do it from your pc . log into gmail and up top right hit settings. then click pop /imap forwarding then under each section there is an underlined configure client or configure outlook tab. if your in the section where you switch on pop and imap your in the right place.

Thanks for the info, I found the configure outlook, but I can't find the problem in the "common issues"
What do you mean by "Clear the captcha" tab? do you mean cache?
when you have clicked configure instructions and the next screen comes up click outlook express.another screen comes up and fourth tab along it says common errors. click that then click first in the list which is
Repeatedly prompted for your username and password or 'invalid credentials' error.
A little drop down appears with a tab to clear captcha. click that let it do its thing . should do the trick for ya

Thanks again coopigeon! I really found it now
Unfortunately, clearing the captcha didn't work for me...
I guess I'll have to find another way. But thanks for helping me out!
hang on a sec , did you do it from your phone also? .connect worelessly use your phone browser and do the same. plus when you have done that ,reset the email account on your phone.

Sorry mate, I've done it on my phone also... delete captcha, resetted my gmail account, everything. Still get the white screen with google in upper left corner.
But I'm glad it worked for you
Hello sonnybravo
After reading this thread I thought I'd sign in to my gmail account (I don't use it much, but thought it would be a useful backup to my pop when I'm out and about). Anyway, I get the same issue as you; the blank white screen with 'Google' in the top left hand corner.
Not exactly an emergency for me, but if you do get to the bottom of it, I'd appreciate a shout.

hi everyone, my question is how do I set-up a hotmail account,when I configure a mail account opens up IE or Opera and from there a access the mail account. With WM5 didn´t do that, I could access the mail account with in the phone without opening the browser.
When I press the mail funtion it doesn´t show the account I already set-up,in this case, hotmail, it shows it empty(no accounts)
any help with this?
thanks
i had problem with this also. Apparently you can only set up one hotmail account on your phone. If let say you deleted it by accident and try to re-add it will not work, instead it will go through the Windows Live website like you stated.
Only solution to fix this is a hard-reset

oo then maybe the owner did set an account before but removed it. If that is the case you will not be able to add a new hotmail account.
My suggestion to you is just do a hardreset, unless there are some things the old owner put in there you might want. If that is the case just plug the USB cable into your computer and copy and paste whatever you want from the phone to your comp as backup
I haven,t done the hard reset because there is no signs of anything being in the memory. When I go to mail function and add new account, I entered the hotmail account and password and then next and shows settings found for hotmail.com,then press next again and goes straight to the browser. I go back to the mail function and again is empty, no account added
Either hard reset or uninstall then reinstall windows live on your phone.

I can do that,but it will still opening mails trough the browser and not as a separate program like it did in WM5?
If you uninstall windows live and reinstall it, then it shouldnt open your mail in an internet browser anymore. Just make sure you have only one hotmail account. The first one will open in the application and if you add others, you will be redirected to the hotmail website.
I just did a hardreset because of touch screen problem. Then I saw this thread, and got my hotmail account working too!
I got the phone from BELL, brand new, but couldn't set up my hotmail accout. It was the same problem: directly go the browser!
Now I love my Diamond even better. It was my gameboy, now it is in business!
Hii.
It´s possible have 2 hotmail account´s on messages menu???
I can´t add 2 or more account´s.
Tankh´s.
i'm having some problems with the hotmail account, somethimes doesnt want to connect through wifi and opens a 3g connection instead..
hotmail fix...
the easiest way I've found is to simply use the "get xpress mail" function... may or may not work for all, but it is at least a 50-50 shot!

What's "get express mail" function?
Give me more details please.
Thanks
Microsoft's hotmail/live/msn support pop3 now.
U can simply use the outlook by setup a new count such as [email protected], and pop3 server as pop3.live.com(maybe, I don't rember), then change the mail address back to [email protected].
The second way is using windows live with messenger.
I access two hotmail accounts, just set as normal but it asks the first time for the address put [email protected], then it lets you setup pop3 and smtp else it detects the address as live and sends you to the browser. edit the address after and all should be ok. ps details here for pop3

Not sure if anyone posted this but Google just released Calender and Contacts sync service that acts like an exchange server.

So far its only contacts and calendar, but it appears you will be able to sync the tasks and emails as well based on the pics they have posted on the official webpage...
It won't work for me. It keeps telling me that my password if wrong and pops up for me to enter it again. Googling comes up with a few people having the same problem.

It did this for me when I selected the mail and tasks options, once i deselected those it worked perfectly.
Is there any issue in field mapping between O/L & G-contact?

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.

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
