Hello,
I have a hosted 365 email account. I set my calendar events on my PC using outlook. I use the native android account for my 365 email app. When a meeting starts I get a popup but don't really hear anything if my phone is in my pocket or across the room. Is there a way to change the sound for a calendar event?
Hello Boe, yes you can do it on your s10 in the notched wheel in outlook I also think on the pc. Notched wheel notification tick emits a sound, For sound on s10 you have to choose if you have sounds recorded on your S10 in a directory SD.

Is it possible to group the Outlook contacts and set ring type/tones to the group?
Also i notice that, when i'm alarm is set, i cant change the phone to slient as the alarm wont ring.
There is a program called Ringo from Electric Pocket which allows you to assign ringtones to your outlook groups or to individuals. You can use your own mp3's for this and you it will also do the same for SMS messages. It's pretty good.
Try this app.
Is there a real time, 2 way sync, push solution for Gmail? Or even better Google Apps?
I've seen Emoze but it's not real time and doesn't do 2 way syncing.
Any other solutions for pushing Gmail to my Tilt?
No there is not. Reason you can't have real time is the delay involved for Gmail to forward your email to a service that can Push it to your device.
So the closest you can get is something like setting your Gmail to forward all your email as it arrives to an Exchange service that supports Push like mail2web.com (or any other of your choice) and the then have your device sync to mail2web.com over the air.
And as you've noticed its only one way. There is no 2 way syncing.
I have set up IMAP settings for GMAIL, two way sync possible and you get almost instant notification with new emails.
Check in google mail under help for IMAP, or use these settings. Works great with Flexmail.
Here is a post from TangerineTractor on the XDA forum how to set up:
Good news for Googlemail/gmail users... IMAP supoport now implemented, so you can schedule checks of your mail account and manage
mails whilst keeping synced up with the gmail servers...
serversettings: imap.gmail.com:993
smtp.gmail.com:587 use SSL
user name is [email protected] or [email protected] etc...
If you set up labels in gmail, these appear as folders in your artemis mailbox, so moving a mail to a folder on your atremis has the effect
of adding a label to it and moving it to 'All Mail' in gmail.
In the advanced mail options, make sure you check to delete mail off server when deleting, otherwise all deleted mail stays in the gmail
all mail folder.

Yup, Gmail works great with Flexmail 2007, using IMAP IDLE for instant notification. (push)
PsyOpWarlord, please don't state your knowledge so absolute. Something like "Not as far as i know" makes things much clearer, now people are just confused.
Just create a hotmail account and use windows live. It's push email although I haven't figured out how to push my calendar to my Pocket Informant Calendar or outlook calendar on my device. If anyone could help. Thanks
Hi all
My g/f got the HD7 today and it's been fairly plain sailing so far. Couple of things have come up though, she got her contacts imported from her sim card without any problems but as soon as she linked her Hotmail account it imported those Contacts as well. Thing is she doesn't want the Hotmail contacts, so can we get rid of them without deleting the Hotmail connection.
We also couldn't find out how to set the snooze time for the alarm or set the alarm to be full volume as soon as it goes off.
Thanks for your help
you can't set the volume separately so the phone has to be left at full volume, and there aren't any snooze time settings as far as I've been able to see, the phones very beta maybe even alpha state atm
They can't really have released a phone in beta form can they? That would be a sure fire way to upset customers. Going back to the alarm, currently it starts low and raises the volume over time, we want it full volume straight of. Might try a third party alarm.
the software's stable but the feature set is really limited, patches are going to add features such as cut and paste and use your own ring tones, things that people have come to expect as standard, so though the software/hardware isn't really beta, the feature set is so lacking it's as if MS launched early and are waiting to hear the cries about what is missing to add them ala the cut and paste.
Any answer to the hotmail sync of contacts? Can we pick and choose which contacts to use or not use any or delete them after the sync?
I had to delete all of my contacts, didn't really bother me seeing as I don't use MSN nowerdays and my Windows Live ID is a @Gmail addy anyway so I don't and Can't use Hotmail.

Hey, yes you can remove the hotmail contacts...
Go into "settings", "email & accounts" then select your hotmail account. from here you should have a "content to syncronsise" section. just remove the contacts from the list.

That cant be done if that account is being used as your primary live id though.
Indeed - it's not possible. The solutions are to merge hotmail accounts to normal sim accounts, if they match, or to delete your hotmail contacts completely.
Not ideal, but it's how it is.
Hi there.
I'm just about to prolong my contract with my provider. they have a nice package offer Note 4 + Gear S.
I seen many videos of the watch but still not sure so I thought I ask.
My IBM work mail comes on the note in the form of a separate auction the IBM traveler. It's a mailbox on its own and not connected / integrated on the email app that comes with the phone. Same goes for the calendar a stand alone app its ifs the phoned calendar app.
My concern is since these are standalone I will not get any of the IBM calendar and Mail notifications coming through my gear S?
Am I assuming correct or this will work and if so how?
Regards Laz

You should be able to forward Lotus Notes Calendar and Email notifications to your watch. Gear Manager allows you to forward notifications from any app (IBM Traveler is also in the list).
But, you will definitely not be able to access email or calendar details on your watch. I use AweSync to replicate my Lotus calendar with a Google account. This way, I can see all of my appointments and details on the watch.

Hi first Thx for your response. Much appreciated.
So let me see if I get this right. When u say notification what / how does this work, say I get an email and the watch pops up an alert saying 1 new mail in traveler or new traveler upcoming meeting alert but no details to the 2?
So like not even sender or subject etc. but just a very primitive way of notification.
If that's so when it comes to traveler usage is poor to say the least.

Hi,
I use a do not disturb events rule to silence notifications during anything scheduled on my work calendar, but not my personal calendar. My work just screwed around with how we access our work calendars and we are now using the outlook android app, which does not play nice with Google. I setup a calendar sync to a separate google calendar associated with my google account, and now I can nicely see all of my work calendar events in it (in its own colour), but I cannot find a way to make do not disturb only turn on for events on the WORK calendar and not all of the calendars that are part of my google account. Any ideas? I guess I could create a ghost google account just to sync work e-mail, but quite a kluge.
I'm so sorry. My work is FINALLY ditching outlook for Gmail (and Google apps for education) and I can't wait to have a real calendar app!
