Exchange issue? Can't add exchange account to Gmail app. - X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am unable to add my exchange account to the Gmail app, however it works perfectly in the stock email app. I was able to do this without issue on my Nexus 5. Is this something to do with the exchange services on my device or something else?

I don't think the MX's gmail app has been updated to include that yet.

Here is what I did to make it work. You have to add the exchange services plug in first, then install GMail. What I had to do was install an older version of the GMail app (one of the 5.00 releases) and then it automatically updated later to the latest Gmail release but is still working.
So, steps I took were:
1) Disable stock Gmail app
2) Install Exchange Services 6.5 update first
3) Installed Gmail 5.0 (1569867)
4) Later updated to latest Gmail version 5.0.1 (1642443)
I got all the update files off of ap mirror website.
Thanks,
Rick

thank you, i know that is what i had to do on my N5, but that was when the gmail app had just recently got exchange support.

As far as I know, that is the process that still must be followed. It is a somewhat frustrating to still have to do this as my experience has been hit or miss with it working consistently.

I can't find Exchange Services on the Play Store anymore... Is there another way? Like remove the updates + desactivate the E-mail and Gmail app. And then reactivate the E-mail app, updating it and the, doing the same with the Gmail app?

what is 'vanilla email'?
I am unable to install on Modded Hero. I really want to use this email over sense. I wonder if the install conflicts with existing email app? Maybe I have to remove the existing sense email first? I badly need unified inbox.

I have it installed alongside the stock Sense email ....((( yes I use them both, former blackberryuser...lots of email accts)))
I installed it and really like the interface, however, about every 15min it tells me I have a new email, which I don't and that's a dealbreaker for me.

Tried using it with VanillaDroid and jcase's nexus patch. It kept force closing when I first opened it up and whenever I looked at an email. Any solution?
I've been using Vanilla email for several days now. Its much quicker than htc's email app. Only issue is I can't open attachments with vanilla.

EDIT: I can open attachments now. It was user-error.
Hey, Thanks for this! I just upgraded from a Droid (with CM7) to a Droid 4 and absolutely hated the new default email app. This one actually works with exchange and I'm more familiar with it anyway.
On my CM7 Droid, there was a setting to change the color of each email account, is that option not available in this or am I just retarded and can't figure it out?

If you have a Google account & your contacts are synced with it all you have to do is go to settings then accounts & sync & make sure you're logged in then check the option to sync contacts. ....I believe all this is correct. Hope that helps
ok i unsynced and resync my google account and the same thing happens.
uncheck the sync contacts then recheck it to get the full sync. atleast that's what I did and it worked for me

Try Wiping Cache/DalvikCache! If that Doesn't Work, Try Reflashing The Gapps Again!

Make sure you have the correct gapps also.

[Q] Google Account is removed

Hey Guys
I know am not supposed to report bugs on nightlys, but this has put me in a cinch. When I updated to 202, my google account was removed for some reason. So I am not able to sign into market or basically do anything related to my google account. In Settings->Accounts->Add Account, the google option is missing, though my facebook and whatsapp accounts are just fine.
How do I manually add a google account?
Thanks!
Yathaid
I've had this problem when cwm flashing a Gingerbread-only modification to Froyo or below. It may of also been something you deleted in system/app.
By "202" do you mean EI22? What were you doing before and after this happened?

Ah sorry for not being clear. I updated to the cm_p990_full_202 nightly that just got released. I restored my previous backup and the account was fine, tried updating again to the newer build and the same thing happened.
Yathaid
Same happened to me when I updated to build 200. I restored my backup and flashed the update on it again. Now the Google account option is back.

Is it possible to have Android ROM of MS or yahoo apps?

I have tried more than 30+ ROM's so far. However I always wonder if it is possible to have a ROM without any google apps in it? Just to try, I installed CM7.2 from Cyanogenmod website and didnot flash the google apps patch. Instead I used EMail exchange app and configure new outlook address which fetch all my hotmail/outlook emails, calendar and contacts to the phone. I configure the F-Droid Repository the repo is very very small and has very limited apps. However with this option I was able to run a CM7.2 without any google apps. However I have always faced poor battery with CM7.2 as compared to the stock based ROM's. Has anyone tried something like this with Yahoo? I managed to install Whatsapp apk from their website but lot's of apps are not available on F-Droid repo.
Last option to the market is to install only google play and by going into settings accounts and sync disable google contacts,picasa,calendar sync. You can install Skydrive and Lync for corporate chat. However bing search app was not possible to install on ACE in india.
However I would really love to see a ROM that actually runs with either microsoft or yahoo apps (search, calendar, contacts, email) and without any google apps.
You can delete google apps yourself.
Download ROM.zip
Go to /system/app
Delete any undesired app.
You can also add your own apps so you don't have to add them everytime you flash it. Although im not sure about last part.
Or simply install ROM and with root explorer delete them.

What is the location of apps that gets installed on SDCard?
Also there are tones of ROM's getting released with same Cyanogenmod with different themes, kernels and added scripts. I 'd rather prefer to see a ROM which goes out of the way and removes google and keeps yahoo or microsoft! Also a there could be a ROM that is not CM based but has been build up from android sources!

Also, why would you want Microsoft apps. Android is owned by Google, and without Google Apps, it defeats the object of having an Android device. Android is designed around the Google ecosystem.
We could have AOSP, but it has lots of bugs, so it's easier to use CM.

[Q] CM10.1 Google account

I've just updated my p970 from CM10 to CM10.1 but now I can't synchronize my phone with my google account and, therefore, I can't access playstore and other apps that require google account.
I go to settings > Accounts > Add account and there isn't even the option of google account, just Facebook, Email and Skype.
Does anyone knows how to solve this?
Thanks in advance
