First off I want to say Merry Christmas to everyone....I need help and since Tmobile is almost in possible to reach anymore I turned to the forums...I got my Mytouch 4G when it first came out and I love it!!!! First phone I ever had with NO LAG at all...But I cant send emails with the Exchange Email program? I heard everyone is having this problem? Does anyone have a fix for this yet? PLEASE PLEASE help !!!!...
Thanks, Ken
My Exchange ActiveSync account works fine here and has since I got the phone a few days after release. I also use EAS for my Google Apps account on my MT4G.
What happens when you try to send? Do you get some sort of error, or does the email sit in your outbox, or get saved to drafts?
Likely it's a problem with the Exchange settings on your phone or your organization's Exchange configuration. Best bet would be to talk to your Exchange admin.
When I send an email it doesnt show in my sent box or my outbox it just disappears from my phone and it never reaches the person im sending it to..I heard HTC knows of the problem but I called there and got no help like they didnt know anything about it...I heard its something to do with the Active Exchange 2010...I guess the Iphones had the same like problem but Apple fixed it already..I can do anything with the email except SEND.....Sucks bad cause i need it for work
Oh man, I forgot about that bug...I had a couple clients whose iPhones didn't work with their Exchange servers until iOS 4.1 was released.
I just tested with an Exchange 2010 server and am experiencing the same issue as you. As far as I can tell, there are 2 workarounds, one you can implement and one your Exchange admin can implement:
1) Install the default Google email app from 2.2. It works properly with Exchange 2010. You will lose search capability for your Exchange mailbox(es) with this, though. Here's a thread where someone posted the apk. I tested it out and it works for me:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=729753
Alternatively, you could pay for and install the Touchdown app from the market. Personally, I'm not a big fan of it.
2) Your exchange admin can create a new EAS policy for you (it can be exactly the same as the default if that's what is being used):
http://social.technet.microsoft.com...0/thread/bcc50ce4-0c97-4851-987d-1f5080d7942b
Please note that I attempted this with the 2010 testbed server I have access to and it did not work. However, this server does not have Exchange 2010 SP1 installed. I can't install the SP to this VM until my coworker is done using it for testing, so I can't tell you if this workaround works properly for our devices.
Good luck...sorry for doubting you, I forgot I was still using my phone with 07 servers.
Thats more than a bug....lol...But Thank you I will look into this
Hi, All
My XOOM is MZ601 with Andriod 3.1. I have used it for several days and everything looks well but email issue.
I have a gmail account and have almost 5000 email during 3 years. I setup my gmail account with XOOM gmail app and setup the duration as 999 days, sync all in lab. But I only can get 5 or 6 weeks email, and when new email comes, the oldest will be missed. When I scroll down to load more conversation, but nothing happened. I don't know how to setup the account and let me get all the email in my gmail account.
BTW, I found a strange thing, I can use search to find old email.
I do believe it's the limiation of the app due to the fact that you have way too much email subjects loaded into memory. That's why you have the search function and setting up labels and what not. It does the same thing with my Thuderbolt so yeah.
Thanks.
It's no good for the user. I can use iphone to see all the email, I can use palmpre to see all the mail but I can't use XOOM do the same thing. The Xoom is more better for biz.
Anybody know how to break the limited for the mail? Thanks.
I've been using Hotmail since 1999 and recently I downloaded Hotmail for android app. Everything was smooth until I tried to enter a new contact, where I found that I cannot do that. Partially I mean. I can only enter the name field and nothing else. I cannot edit the synced contacts too.
because HTML mail was not possible with the default mail app in android and exchange in Hotmail, I used to forward my mail to Gmail and use the Gmail app.
I was very joyed with this app release and now facing this bug.
I googled but couldn't find any solution or similar bug reports.
Am I the only unlucky person or others have this problem too. I'd there any fix for this.
I have already tried removing and re-adding, uninstall and reinstall.
I am using cm7 on my wildlife.
Thank you in advance.
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA Premium App
You are not alone! Still looking for a solution myself.
Have you tried using another email client and signing in through it?
Same problem here. Hotmail worked great through Activesync on Android, but this app is much nice. But contacts edit is not working at all !! And not found any fixes thus far.
-sony xperia arc w/stock kernel
Still to fix
Sorry to say that I am having the same issue. Have to been able to find a fix. Please let all know if anyone can figure this out.
Thanks.
Same problem here
I too have the same problem. I erased everything, tried with another gmail account, made sure to not sync anything with gmail, with no avail. This is a huge bug.
Response from Hotmail
So I contacted Hotmail about this issue. Here was there response:
"We aplogoize for the inconvenience that this may have caused you. Please understand that the ability to edit contacts on Hotmail app for Android phones is currently not available. However, our product team was already aware of it and a fix is being considered.
Thanks,
Windows Live"
Hopefully this fix will be soon.

No HTML mail with exchange on my Wildfire....
I'm looking for a solution to this one too. The Hotmail app is actually pretty good, but the inability to edit contacts is an odd bug.
Solution
I tried Contact Editor Free by dmfs in the Market. It lets you edit the hotmail contacts and sync them back up.
I've only tested it for about a minute, but it seems to work.
I gotta tell you.
I've done a research. Microsoft is aware of the issue since about November/December 2011. SEVEN (the actual manufacturer) confirms it and reports work in progress (in February/March?), an update to the app has been issues by the end of February but the issue has not been addressed and has not yet been resolved.
I used Microsoft's support forums to ask the question, how to sync the contacts then, if nothing works as intended.
One of forum's moderators confirmed the issue, another asked how did I exactly try to sync.
If you would be kind enough to visit the question page yourselves and click "I have that question too", I'd be thankful. Maybe they'd actually do something instead of constantly apologizing and confirming either the issue or the progress of the works...
I tried Contact Editor Free by dmfs in the Market like Joe USer and works ok

use Contact Editor free by Marten Gajda.
worked for me.
Don't know why I never noticed this before when I was using my Galaxy S2 but it hit me today on my Nexus 4. I was trying to find out why Bluetooth handsfree calling through my Garmin wasn't working and it is because the Garmin has all my contacts showing last name first even though they aren't presented that way on the phone. When I tried to view the contact directly through the Contacts app, I saw that it was showing last name first and I couldn't edit the contact to try and fix it.
We are what, over a year since this was first recorded here and still no fix other than a third party app? This wasn't an issue on my BlackBerry.
On top of that, it makes handsfree unusable since there seems to be no way to get the contacts to list with the first name first. The contacts are all fine on Outlook.com so something is getting messed up with how they are presented in Android.
I have checked everywhere i can and have found nothing else on this issue.
My wife has a shift and the only email account she has on it is yahoo. When she opens up some of her emails, she can start reading them and then about 10 - 15 seconds later the email disappears. She hits the back button and the email is still there, but when she clicks on it and pulls it up it is blank. I have deleted the account and re-installed it, I have changed the incoming and outgoing servers, and have done hard reboots with no fixes. Any suggestions?
I personally have an evo 4g with no problems.
Thanks
If your rooted, you can try deleting the account. After that boot into Recovery, Wipe Dalvik, wipe Cache, and then Reboot. When it's done rebooting and has settled down. Add the account back on. See if that resolves the issue.
Her phone is not rooted so i can't do that with hers. Thanks for the suggestion.
Could try a hard reset, as a last resort. Not sure if it will help.
My mothers phone is doing the same thing right now, and her phone is rooted.
I did notice a small fix for my mother phone and that was this. I was not able to find a fix for gmail on the mail app.
The stock settings for yahoo email shows as
htc.imap.mail.yahoo.com
ssl 993
htc.smtp.mail.yahoo.com
ssl 465
I changed it too: so all i did was cut out the "htc."
imap.mail.yahoo.com
ssl 993
smtp.mail.yahoo.com
ssl 465
me too.
Both my girlfriend and I have this same problem. We both only have one account in the stock mail app and it's Yahoo. I was hoping that rooting and moving to a different ROM would help fix this, but nope.
This happened to me unrooted as well. I am currently running x99's rooted OTA GB release so I'm wondering if it is something within the stock e-mail app. I've tried others before and prefer the integration and features of the stock app. So, if anyone comes up with something let us know.
Word of advice: STOP USING YAHOO MAIL AND SWITCH TO GMAIL.
I'm not saying this to be a troll, ****, or jerk. Yahoo mail is majorly flawed. I highly suggest to get off hotmail, windows live mail, yahoo mail, aol mail and aim.com mail ASAP.
"I'm not saying this to be a troll, ****, or jerk"
Then you won't mind educating me on how Yahoo Mail is majorly flawed. I've been using it since 1997 and have had very little to no complaints about it. Unfortunately I just realized I didn't wipe as well as I could have before flashing x99's ROM so I'm hoping a redo of that will fix my issue. Still doesn't make sense for the non-rooted stock people though.

1) Bad spam filtering - real email gets blocked while spam gets through.
2) Bad email server verification see 1
3) Bad interface
4) Lots of fake accounts, bad account security
5) Yahoo will be bankrupt soon if not bought by another company
6) You're using a Google phone, to use yahoo mail, when you could be using the native Gmail client and not have these issues in the first place, have all your contacts, calendar, and email synced and backed up in the google cloud.
So again what's the point of even bothering?
I recommend signing up for a google account and moving everything over. It's really not that hard or painful. Just connect with Outlook via POP3/IMAP, export to PST, connect to GMAIL, import PST from Yahoo, update all your online accounts until email stops coming in to your yahoo account.
Just wondering if any of you are using the the Z3 with an MS Exchange account (not office365) and getting email and calendar events to sync accordingly?

Thanks. I think then it's an issue with my phone. Searching the interwebs doesn't really say much about the topic in terms of syncing errors. and, sony support seems to indicate they have "not had one issue with exchange and email/calendar syncing."
I've had issues with android native email app not synching. Can you describe your issue in more detail, it could be the same as mine.

well the email app takes the exchange account, I get email coming in with push. but I don't get calendar events. no matter what I do.
there's no error, or message, just doesn't show up. same settings on my two year old samsung, works just fine.
Check my blog entry at blogs.msdn.com/Baliles. I posted an article on how to get it to work.

thanks for the suggestion. I actually came across your msdn post a while ago. BUT, unfortunately, outlook.com (365) is not my exchange provider, so it's a moot point.
thanks again for the post.
btw I'm using Google calendar if that makes a difference
Have you tried alternative clients?
I use mailwise and I am getting emails and calendar sync no issues.

yeah that actually did it! I spent the day going down the list of exchange and email clients and in the play store and when I got to mailwise, it actually synced up the calendar events.
I damn near fell of the chair
thanks again for the suggestion. I'm not at all sure what the difference is, in setting up an exchange activesync account from mailwise as opposed to say cloudmagic or the sony email app or k9, etc...
anyway it worked and I hope this thread comes in handy for any unlucky soul that faces this issue.
Just my story and suggestion:
We use the Mdaemon Server (v14) with active sync support. First synce with my Z3 went finde. But immediately after that everything got messed up.
So after a few times adding and removint the account I tried to use the original Android Exchange client - same story here. Started to work and the just stopped to sync.
As a finel solution and afer running trough tons of Google-searches I have found the holy grail for me - Nine.
The cool thing for me was that it has a 2 weeks test-period after which you need to activate it.
So I tested about 11 days without any error and decided to buy it. So far no regrets on my decision! What I totaly like is that it has a well working search and a chat-view mode for the messages.
Anyway -- just give it a try - 2 weeks free testing.
The key was 7,60€ or whatever - equals 9.99USD.

Setup via exchange, then it automatically puts in all settings once you've added email and password

Strange, every time I do so I get the following:
Email App - Address lines cutting off in replies
Hello dear,
There is a problem i noticed with the Z3 email client after setting up my office email on Exchange.
for example, i am getting an email from someone with multiple people in "CC" and "To".
If i do a "reply all" or "reply only to the sender", in my reply, all the other addresses other than the sender's name gets cut off from the email to which i am replying.. This is a very disappointing thing for me since it seriously deforms the email chain and make us lose track of who all where there in the earlier email. This is especially bad when using for corporate official emails.
Before switching to Sony, (due to Battery life), i was using Samsung Galaxy and Samsung email app never had this issue. Whether you reply or forward, the previous emails were intact with all addresses and details.
Any idea on how to solve this?
regards....
