[Q] Stock email app couldn't download *.zip - G 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
A friend of mine has a stock 4.4.4 xt1063 with an exchange account with default email app, everything is working but he's he can't download any .zip attachment, he asked for help and I tough a "zip reader app" was missing installed few from the play store and the same.
He send the file to my gmail account (gmail app) and I receive and download the file, I have slimlp 5.1.1
Them we tried different zip files and only gmail worked.
Then I tried to use an exchange account with default app in my phone to receive a zip attachment and it fail, tried gmail exchange and fail, tried IMAP and pop on both apps and also fail.
Installed cm12.1 and try again both apps fail to download zip file, any other attachment download fine. Tried Google and couldn't find anything.
I took a log cat and always have this same warming from attachmentservice.
Any ideas what's happening?
Can anyone confirm this behavior.
K9mail works fine on IMAP and pop but I think it sucks that stock email app can't handle attachments all the workarounds are a hard thing to do for a regular Joe.

I have Android 5.1, and also stock email version 5.1 and have the same problem. Hopefully when my company upgrades to exchange 2013, I can use OWA app if that app can handle all attachments?

imap gmail

Hello,
I'm having problems setting up my gmail account on my device with dutty's latest supported ROM. I cannot select the account type to imap although I typed it correctly in the box above. It just wouldn't allow me to select anything. Please see picture below
I appreciate any help

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
setup a fictious email as if it wasnt gmail....ie [email protected]
that way it wont find the auto settings for gmail.
then you should be able to pick imap as your protocol.
This problem isn't specific to Dutty's ROM and should not be in the ROM development forum. I've moved this thread to Kaiser general...
FWIW, if this thread *was* specific, it should have been posted as a reply in Dutty's thread.
hi there, i dont think my answer has much to do with your post. however, i am using a free service called www.mail2web.com to get my gmail...its a free exchange server...go check it out...
thanks
its a wm6.1 "issue" if you want to call it an issue. as long as it knows the email address it will use its auto config file. so you need to fool it....give it an address it DOES NOT know...then it will give you the option to manually configure.
so instead of listing [email protected] [email protected]. the next screen will give you options to set it up manually...there you can also change the email address back to what its supposed to be. also make sure you're using imap....enable it in the gmail settings.
your servers will be this..... imap.gmail.com:993 and smtp.gmail.com:587

App Hub Registration issues

I've registered my windows live account with App Hub, and also verified that I have been billed for it. Yet when i try to login to App Hub, i always end up at the page below.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Also, i am unable to register my phone as a developer's. I get the following error.
Is the App Hub page broken, or am i doing some mistake? I am not able to access their forums to raise this issue since everytime I login it takes me to that stupid screen. Any ideas guys?
The simplest thing to do is to have your
Computer country
Live Account ID's country
and Phone's country set to : USA
hope that helped..
I went to Microsoft billing, and delegated to another account in which everything is set to USA. Now atleast i am able to login in and access the forums etc. But still the same screen pops up. I've raised a message in the App Hub forums.
Can you tell me one more thing? How do i solve the second screenshot which i've posted? And also, am i supposed to get a mail from GeoTrust? Still havent got it.
For your second screenshot, I also had the same problem but the forums there explained that you need to get validated by GeoTrust first. How do you do that? You need to submit an app first.
Yeah I know it sounds dumb, but basically I just did the HelloWorld tutorial and submitted the xap file. This initiates the GeoTrust validation process, and you should get an email within 24 hours. Then you should be all set to register your device etc.

[Q] Gmail Auto-Sync (push) disappeared...

Something weird just started on my Bionic...
Gmail is set up (has to be so I can use google play) and has worked for the entire time I've had my bionic...
3 days ago I noticed that I quit getting gmail notifications... if I opened my mailbox I could press refresh and the mail would update....
So I thought to myself...ok, I've turned off the sync.. so I went to accounts and into my gmail account... to my suprise, the auto sync isn't there... I'm going to try and attache pictures of what it looks like...

}
If I touch the SYNC GMAIL it syncs
So I thought again, ok, just delete the account then put it back in...
I get the infamous You can't dumb a.s.s. error
I've went into applications and remove the cache on the gmail app, I've tried everything I can think of... any help would be greatly appreciated.
Tim
I didn't get any replies here but did on another forum.
Some solutions suggested were:
1. make sure your gmail account is set to sync
2. Menu > More > Settings > touch your account > check your settings on Sync inboxes and labels, Email notifications, and Labels to notify
3. make sure your autosync is on in your power widget
(Thanks gsDroid)
These seemed to help one other user that had the same issue... they didn't help me, so I ended up doing a factory reset...
Just thought I'd share in case anyone else has the problem or has any new suggestions!
Thanks,
Tim

Unable to send hangouts message via voice

Ever since updating to hangouts 4.0, I can't send hangouts messages via voice. Anyone else have that issue? Just says account not found.

Try one of this methods, it worked for me;
(1) Go to - (your phone's) Settings/Accounts and select your account and delete it. Afterwards log in again.
Or
(2) Simply go to (your phone's) Settings/ Apps/ Hangouts and select delete cache, and the select delete data. Last thing you have to do is force close app and then reboot your device.
If anything is unclear or difficult to understand then feel free toask me

This didn't work for me. Additionally, I went as far as a full wipe and reinstall and the issue remains. It only happens with hangouts 4.0. I tried using hangouts as a built in system app as well as a user space installed app, neither work. For now being on 3.3.x is working for me but maybe someone else has come across this issue and has an alternative solution.
It has to do with capitals in the email
Unfortunately this issue exists for several of us and Google still hasn't fixed it. It has to do with your original email using capital letters in the username. If you look at the email address it's trying to send from , you'll most likely see some capitals in there. See thread about it here: productforums.google.com/forum/m/#!topic/hangouts/K77g6VWr92E

Huawei calendar opening Chinese maps amap

Hi Guys. didn't notice this until today as I was selecting an event in calendar (Huawei Calendar) and clicked on Show on map. usually when I was using Google Calendar, if I would click link to the location of the event, Maps Google would open but on the Huawei App it opens a website amap.com which is for navigating in China?
I have checked the Huawei calendar app but sadly haven't found any settings there.
is there a way to change it so Maps Google would be used?
Me too
I don't think it's always done that.
I am on a Mate20 Pro.
Can't see any setting to revert to Google maps.
I have the same issue, appeared in EMUI 9
I have tried to contact their support and ask for this, but somehow I forgot the exact steps to recreate it.
Could someone help me out? Was it the link to maps from the notification of calendar?
edit: ok found it. It looks like it is for events which are coming from google calendar down to Huawei calendar app.
I will test it and contact support.
edit 2: Correct. If the address is added on calendar.google.com and will be synced to Huawei P20Pro.
Once event is opened in Huawei Calendar app and the user will click on "Show on map" link underneath the address - it will open Chinese maps website.
I have opened a ticket with UK Huawei Support and provided them screenshots and small video
