Trouble with radio on Tilt

So after trying what seems like an endless number of radios, I'm unable to send emails from my phone using Gmail. Before flashing Hyperdragon III onto my phone, I was able to send/receive email no problem. Now I'm only able to receive, can't send email at all - says Unable to send message(s) - error synchronizing.
If someone could point me in the right direction, that would be awesome. This is starting to get frustrating.

start, settings, connections, manage existing, proxy settings, un-check this network uses a proxy server to connect to the internet

Checked that and the option to use a proxy is already disabled. Any other ideas? Definitely appreciate the suggestion tho.
PS. I also have the cabs to enable/disable the cingular/att proxy and neither makes a difference. Before changing the ROM, emails would send regardless of which setting I used. Hope this helps.

Edit Account setup, then keep hitting mext until you get to the outgoing server settings and after "smtp.gmail.com" add ":587" to the end.
Worked immediately for me. It has to do with the new server authentication that wm6.1 or something requires.
Hope that fixes your problem! let me know if I need to be more specific, I'm at school and I gotta run.

Tried that and no dice. Does seem to be a WM6.1 issue though from what I've been reading.

maybe you should flash different HyderDragon...as there are two new versions came out. Or maybe try to flash the radio...Do you know what radio version you were using before flashed to HDIII?

Don't think it's the radio at this point. I've tried most of them in an attempt to fix the problem, but the 6.0-6.1 upgrade seems to be the culprit.

it prolly is, i mean since its release theres been all sorts of bugs reported ( as well as with HPD III, hence why i wont flash it ) but imo what u should do is start over..
re-flash, get ur new radio and take it from there
Jstar

try running the remove hidden proxy cab and then run the restore hidden proxy cab. i had this problem with gmail before and i think thats how i fixed it. it has nothing to do with the radio your using. just go to at&ts site and look up the connection settings and make sure everything makes sense...

If that doesn't work.
You could always try this.
I seriously doubt this is a radio related issue

To configure IMAP for your Windows Mobile 6 device, just follow these steps:
Enable IMAP in your Gmail settings.
Open the Start menu and select Programs > Messaging > New E-mail Account.
Enter your Gmail address (including '@gmail.com') in the E-mail Address field*. Google Apps users, enter your full address in the format '[email protected]_domain.com'*.

Checked that already, too. I'm not exactly a total noob I've had all my stuff working perfectly until upgrading to WM 6.1. The Hyperdragon rom was after the initial upgrade from 6-6.1. Email sending (receiving is fine) through my Gmail accounts just doesn't seem to work now. I suppose I can go back to stock, but... *shudder*

On another note, I dont use push email, I schedule a send/receive every 15 minutes.
I do know it does work with Se7en and other such push providers but would prefer this to be done natively, not with an unreliable 3rd party software. I'm using wm6.5 by Da_G.
I've also been looking into ImapPusherService( http://blownfuze.org/files/ImapPusherService_0.6.zip ) but I cant get this to work with 3 mail.

Activesync problems

So i used this hack to setup my gmail, hotmail an windjammercable mail in activesync so i could get push notifications for all my mail in one central app. Here is the problem, when i set the update schedule to push in offpeek time it causes my phone to continously do a data sync every 3 seconds non stop! Is there any setting that will get this working correctly?
Windjammercable mail uses google servers for their mail distribution.
If i set peak to push, an off peek to manuel, then changed peak to start at 8am an off peek to start at say 7am would that fix my problems? Or does peak an off peak require 12hrs gap between the two?

This is a bit of a hack.
From the forums I read while trying to resolve this problem I noticed it worked for some people and didn't work for others. I my experience with software, I've learnt that software is not really erratic. There's always a pattern.
After trying all sorts of combinations, I came up with a process which has worked for me 3 times. You can all try it out and let me know if it works for you.
The process involves pretending to setup a hotmail account using ActiveSync (which will fail) then changing the settings to that of a gmail account. I know it sounds bizarre but it worked for me 3 times. The steps are below.
Pretending to setup a hotmail account
1. Go to the Launcher screen
2. Tap on "Email" icon
3. Press Menu
4. Add account
5. Enter full Email address: [email protected] or [email protected]
6. Enter password
7. Tap Manual Setup
8. Choose Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync
9. Domain\Username: your full email address (example: [email protected] or [email protected]). DO NOT USE "\" in front of the email address. You are not in any Exchange server domain.
10. Your password is already filled in from Step 6, ignore it
11. Server: m.hotmail.com
12. Use Secure connection (SSL) - Yes
13. Accept all SSL Certificates - Yes
14. Tap Next
You should see a checking server settings message ... mine took around 3 seconds.
Account options window
Email Checking Frequency - Automatic (Push) [<- that is the whole reason you wanted this, right?]
Amount to sync - your choice
rest of the four option - totally your choice
Tap Next
Choose account color - your choice
Tap Next
Account Name: Hotmail or WLM (or whatever you want)
Tap Next
At this point you will get the error message "Failed to create the account. Please try again later."
This is expected as a result of a bug with the HTC mail app. Now, moving on to setup the actual email account we're going through all this for.
Setting up actual Gmail Account
Tap "Ok" and tap the "Back" button twice.
Change the email address to your gmail/googlemail address.
Change the server address to m.google.com, leave to domain blank and
Change the username to your full email address.
Of course you need to change the password as well.
Also make sure SSL is checked.
Hit the "Next" button twice and then enter and "Account Name" if you wish. Finally tap "Finish Setup".
DONE! Hopefully your account should be ready to go!
Give it a try and let me know how it goes.

Email

When I setup my email with the email icon as well as with the gmail app, everything synced up nicely, but i have not been able to send or receive emails. Says "sending" and nothing happens and new emails do not come in. Also it seems to say unable to connect to server a lot in the email icon. Although i have almost a full wi-fi connection. Ideas? Thanks.

Thanks rjan, but i'm still having trouble with this. For the email icon, since i had already set it up, i went in and hit the menu button and wen to "more" I saw the income mail field and changed it from imap.gmail.com to m.google.com and then when i hit next it still says unable to connect to server. I have a wifi connection so not sure whats up with this... also having trouble with the gmail icon which i also synced and setup, but after it synced, i cant send or receive new emails. Ideas?

All it needed was to be restarted

Yahoo mail stops working.

Yahoo mail works fine for a week than stops. Says it can't send. So I go back into the settings that I have not changed and it says that authentication failed on outgoing server. User name and password incorrect. Don't see how since I never changed it. So i put the correct one back in. Doesn't work. I delete email account. Enter same user/pass and ot works fine. Few days later same thing. I have tried this on pop and IMAP. And suggestions?
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using XDA Premium App

Same here. I didn't change anything but somehow it stopped working since yesterday.
This similar problem happened like 1 month ago and nobody seem could fix it.
The good thing was it came back to normal after a few days. It seemed Yahoo is the one having problem and it went back normal after they fixed their system.
I hope same thing is happening now.
UPDATE!! Now it works! here is how:
- I delete HTC Mail widget
- Try to reinstall widget and setup new account
- Widget said my Yahoo account is locked and I need to go to my computer to log in & unlock manually
- I tried to log in through my pc and my password was denied several times (Weird.. since it was ok yesterday)
- I chose option that My Password Is Not Working
- Reset my password and log in successfully thru my pc
- Go back to HTC Mail, setup with new account info..and VOILA...it works again.

this worked for me
From:
mobile.yahoo dotcom /mail/android (I'm not allowed to post links yet)
And I'm doing this to get to an sbcglobal.net account which is ATT which is for some unknown reason controlled by yahoo!. Note: these setting are different than the settings I need to use for my laptop. There its a POP3.
Good luck:
IMAP is another way you can get Yahoo! Mail on your phone. Using IMAP you can download messages with your mobile client, so you can access your mail even when not connected to the mobile Internet.
How to set up Yahoo! Mail with your mobile client using IMAP
1. On your phone, press < Home >, then open the Email application.
2. On the 'Your accounts' page, select Next to get started with setup.
3. Enter your full Yahoo! address and password, then select Next.
4. On the next screen, you can give the account a nickname and choose the name to display on your outgoing messages. Tap Done.
If prompted, supply the following information:
1. Incoming Server - imap.mail.yahoo.com
2. Outgoing Server - smtp.mail.yahoo.com
3. Incoming Port - 993 (requires SSL)
4. Outgoing Port - 465 (requires SSL)
5. Username: full email address ([email protected])
6. Password: is the password you login to Yahoo! with

I concur, I've been using similar IMAP settings for over 12 months that have never failed me yet, ..first on my desire and now on my sensation.
Similar to above suggested settings, with different ports.
Here's my trusty old settings for Yahoo mail....
Incoming settings
Protocol: IMAP
Enter your complete email address for user name, example: [email protected]
Enter password as normal.
IMAP server: imap-ssl.mail.yahoo.com
Security type: None
Server port: 143
Outgoing server settings
Enter your complete email address again for user name
Enter password as normal again.
SMTP server: smtp.mail.yahoo.com
Security type: None
server port: 587

Try the Yahoo Mail app, it's pretty good and it's push.
