Hi. I remember seeing a small app on here. It allowed more control over the mail send / receive settings, a bit like activesync's schedule settings. I have searched but cannot find it.
Can anybody help?
elaborate on that please.. what does it do exactly?
Rather than only being allowed to have send / receive check every 'n' minutes, it let you set different times for different days and different times of day. For example, on Monday through Friday, 9 to 5, every 5 minutes, and the rest of the time every hour.

Hi Guys,
Have a wizard, and a couple of email/pop accounts set-up. Does anyone know if there is a way to have the device connect every couple of hours to check for email? There is an automated check option in the settings, but it only allows you set from 1minute to 60minutes.
I'd like to set it to check once every 3 or 4 hours, to save on battery life and GPRS charges.
Registry setting?
Thanks
I can't figure this out for the life of me. Whenever I receive a text message, it is always timestamped 4 hours behind. When I send a text message its fine, and when I receive MMS messages its fine too. I have have triple checked my time settings and it is set correctly, in my case GMT -5 Eastern US. Any ideas as to why this is happening?

CHeck you regional settings dude (not time&date).......also go into start>settings>phone>TimeZones(tab).....tick the box, the device should get the time & date from the network automatically.
This MIGHT not be present to select, aint got my Touch Pro yet

Triple checked the regional settings, and I enabled the get time & date from the network already. Still, every SMS i receive is timestamped 4 hours behind...
I've noticed my TP doesn't receive emails when the phone is in stand-by, even if an automatic send/receive schedule is set. This makes it completely useless to me. I mean, what's the point of automatic send/receive schedule, if the phone will be in stand-by 90 % of the time (or for 2 hours straight)? Is there any way to get notifications of new emails even if the phone is in stand-by?
Thanks
Mine works
U have send and receive every 5 mns
Strange, it does work for me (on a POP account with auto send/receive every hour). E-mails come in at night, for instance. They just don't make the phone come out of standby or turn on the screen, but the white LEDs around the centre button provide a visual notification.
You could edit the notifications (settings -> sounds and notifications -> second tab -> new e-mail) for a more persuasive signal (vibration).
Are you referring to cellulair download or WiFi download? Remember that WiFi is disabled upon entering standby, unless otherwise configured using Advanced Configuration Editor. For cellulair download the right network connection must be selected if WiFi was used before. Are you able to receive emails on the proper automatic schedule if you don't put / allow the device to go into standby?
hotmail also works fine with the setting - update when message received (options set in windows live). In fact hotmail acts as a very good push service for those of you that want delivery of email as it arrives.
Hmm, thats odd. I have two IMAP accounts, and neither update when the device is in stand-by. I'm using 3G data connection to update. I sent myself an email, put the device to stand-by, and waited. Send/receive was scheduled for every 5 mins. After absolutely no activity in about ten minutes, I woke the phone. A little after that I get a sound & popup notifications of a new email. Also, the LED around the centre button start to flash. If I don't allow the phone to enter stand-by, it receives new messages as it should.
Well, at least it should work. I was afraid there for a while that this was a feature rather than a bug. Hopefully it'll get fixed with a ROM update at the latest. I'm using standard 1.90.401.1 WWE at the moment.
this was a problem we had with the kaiser....hopefully we dont have the same problem here...
Well, this is interesting. I turned off HSDPA/HSUPA (I have an upper limit of 384 kbps anyway), and enabled automatic send/receive when roaming. After this the auto s/r works also in stand-by. Good enough for me!
Hm hey guys,
I'm facing the same problem with my Raphael.
I get my emails forwared via MMS from O2 Germany. Problem that I just realized now, I only get them when I turn my phone on.
So if someone sends me an email at night, I get the MMS with it in the morning when my alarm turns on. Isn't too bad but still a little annoying - what can I do?
I use my device for work. I coordinate/schedule jobs in which there are many people who can work certain slots. So, I'll send out one text message to about 75-84 individuals. Then the ones who can work reply. Later, I send out another mass SMS advising of remaining slots to be filled.
My issue is this. In the Android code a section checks for the number of text messages send within the last hour. If you exceed 100 messages - then, Android throws an error for every message afterwards within that hour and the user has to select "OK" to send an SMS. So, at times I have to sit there and select "OK" over and over again for several minutes while the over limit SMS's are sent....
I found an old record on how to fix this issue here.
However, this APPEARS to be an old solution. I was unable to find this setting or the table "gservices" in "/data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db
Does anyone know where this was moved or how to change this setting?
My device is a an LTE Galaxy Nexus.
I'm running AOKP-build 33. But, I would think this setting would be generic to all of the current ICS ROMs.
Thanks for any advice.
BTW - I found some very old posts related to this same issue. Note:
1) Using an app will not address this issue (I use Chomp SMS) as this is coded within Android.
2) Google Voice will not work as it doesn't recognize "groups" for the "to" box.
3) Pulling the battery will just prevent all the texts from going out.
I'm just hoping someone knows where the file/code is located that I need to modify.
All other suggestions will not resolve this issue.
I installed and used WhatsApp for the first time last night to contact a friend who I suspect may be upset with me. I am trying to decide if they blocked and then unblocked me in WhatsApp. Here is what happened:
1. I started a chat with them (I could see their profile, but they had no profile picture and no status).
2. A few minutes after sending the message, their profile picture appeared and their status changed.
3. About 15 minutes later they responded to my message.
4. Immediately after their response I sent three additional messages.
5. After a few minutes I noticed that my three additional messages were not delivered (only one check mark).
6. After another minute or two, their profile picture was again gone, I could not see their status, and I could not add them to a group chat (I got the message "couldn't add xyz" when creating the group).
7. After about another 30 minutes, I got a response in WhatsApp and I could again see their profile picture, but it had changed to a different picture.
8. The three messages I sent after their response were never delivered.
My question is, can I say 100% that they blocked me after the first message and then unblocked me before they sent their second? If not, what could have happened? I don't want to ask this person if they blocked me and potentially make them more upset with me if they didn't block me.
