Hey all, I bought a HTC Touch Pro from Alltel back in December and have had zero issues with it till just recently. I ended up needing to do a hard reset and was able to back up all of my contacts/sms messages/etc... via another cab that I found on here. Since doing the hard reset, my msn.com email address is giving me crap when I try to sync it. When I say "giving me crap" I mean that it simply will not sync. When I hit the send/receive button, it goes straight to the "finished" notification, doesn't even appear to try to synch the folders at all. Also since the hard reset it automatically opens Windows Live, which it never did before. I created a gmail account just to see if it was an msn.com email issue. The Gmail inbox updates just fine, no issues at all, but the msn email just refuses to even try to sync. I'm not running any crazy roms/themes/cabs, all I have are the nocurtains, clear slider, and glass clock cabs installed, just purely visual cabs.
Anybody have any ideas on what I might be able to do to get windows live to stop opening automatically and get my msn email to actually sync? The msn email is my main one and I'd like to be able to access it on my phone. If my problem has been addressed here, I apologize, but I was unable to find it being addressed anywhere here or anywhere else for that matter. Maybe I'm just dumb and cant use the internet, but I was unable to find my answer elsewhere so I figured I could start a new thread and ask people who are more tech savvy than I am. Your help is greatly appreciated and I thank you all in advance.

Hiya all,
I am a complete newbie to windows mobile devices. I Just received mt t-mobile mda touch, and am trying to set up one of my email accounts (yahoo.co.uk account)
I have tried setting it up with the auto tool, and manually putting all the details in, I know the are all correct, have tried about 8 times now!
Once its all set up, I click send/receive but it just goes back to tell me to check my username and password again. Another thing I noticed was that when I was checking all the settings, my starred out saved password appeared to have changed! (it seemed about 3 times as long as my actual password!)
Is there a way to fix this problem? I have tried to search the forum for this, and also everywhere else but can't seem to find a solution! I am search impaired!
I hope this makes sense to someone, its driving me a little mad!

Yep, on t-mobile web n walk. Have browsed some web pages, and as i say, my main pop3 account is now downloading emails fine!

Hi all, I'm fairly experienced with the WM world (been using since WM2002) and am usually able to fix plenty of people's problems (on here and in the real world). I have run into an issue that I haven't quite been able to figure out. If it were my phone, I'd probably reflash a different rom on it (or even same one) and try it again fresh, but since it is not my phone I haven't tried it yet. Anyways, here is the issue.
My coworker has configured his phone running his provider's stock WM6.1 standard rom. He (well me, he had no idea it was possible until I showed him) is trying to connect his phone to the company's exchange server to get email on the phone. I have configured this (or instructed how to do this) for over 25 people where I work, and the only issues that I have ever run into were certificate issues. I manually pulled down the root certificate, made a cab file containing it, and installed it on his phone. This is easily verified by accessing the company's OWA site from Pocket IE. Without the certificate installed, a certificate warning appears, and with it you access without a problem (which I can do). So certificate, checked.
Now after a soft reset, it comes time to configure it. I get the email address, password, and domain in without a problem. Then the OWA address is put into the server address. Then the specific mail and calendar items are configured (such as retain last 3 days of mail, download 50KB of each message, show last 2 weeks of calendar, etc.), and finish is hit. The device successfully syncs, with no errors appearing on the screen. I even see items come down in activesync (such as syncing 82 contacts, 5 calendar events, and some emails).
I opened pocket outlook, and his inbox is empty. Odd, so I send him a test email from my AT&T Tilt (cooked WM 6.1 rom), and it arrives to his device on the next send/receive. Then, I hit send receive again on his phone and the test email disappears. I have tried changing the "retain" option for email from last 3 days to last 2 weeks, and no difference. Also the Calendar is empty. I sent him a meeting request and he accepted it, but it isn't on his mobile phone's calendar (but it is on the exchange calendar).
The only thing that I could think of is a rule to move everything to his personal folder on his laptop, but he says that he doesn't have one and moves everything over by hand. I'm thinking about swinging by his desk and confirming, but he isn't dumb and I'm sure he isn't lying about it.
I have been searching google (here and full internet google) without much luck. Thanks for any ideas to try, or else I'm gonna go soft reset his phone

Well he did tell me when he closed outlook on his work PC, everything started working right. I might try to swing by and look at his outlook afterall.
Jason
btw, if your poutlook syncs only new mails, and your server is configured to not keep messages on the server, the message might be deleted every other send/receive.
Hi guys, I dont know what hapenned with my raphael... I messed up in all configurations at account settings and it havent solved the issue.
When I receive emails, once I open the email and close it, going to the "house" of tf3d, later, if I go again to the email, the message disappears, without passing by the "deleted items", my messages are all running out the mobile, without one action
does anybody know how to fix it?

is it possible that the message is getting routed to another folder? also what type of email acct are you using? exchange, imap, pop?

will i have to format it? nobody helps me, i think i will
Please help me, i search and search and dont discover anything
does anybody know this issue?
Hello everybody!
Hope someone can help me, as this is a troublesome issue:
First of all, I'm on a Touch Pro with a Stock WWE ROM. The one that was provided with the phone.
Since yesterday, and without any apparent cause (haven't installed/changed a thing), the Pocket Outlook refuses to open my email messages.
I get the email in the inbox, but when trying to load a message, it just flashes the taskbar, changing the 'X' closing button to 'ok', marks the message as read, but doesn't load it.
The weird thing is it does open the SMS messages. I'm guessing that works because of the threaded view being enabled, so the viewer program is different.
I've tried to erase the account (GMail) and recreate it, didn't help at all.
Any ideas?
Can I reinstall the Outlook in any way without Hard-resetting the device?
Thanks a lot!
no you cant reinstall outlook, its integrated into the rom so cant be uninstalled.
Never seen that problem with out look before. Do you sync ur phone via active sync by anychance?
Yes, I sync by ActiveSync. Everything was working fine until a few days ago, and it's been about 3-4 months since my last hard reset...
I've ended up hard-resetting again... No choise when it comes to email. I need it working...
Thanks for the help anyway.
I am having the same issue with my touch pro runnnig mighty rom 4 with manila 2.1. I am using hotmail (via windows live) for email and nuevasync for calendar sync.
Anyone have any ideas?
Hi,
this is a strange question and a bizzare event thats occuring but i am hoping someone will be able to clear this up for me.
Basically i have had troubles with battery life on my windows 7 phone, its a samsung omnia on the orange network in the uk. This has ONLY been an issue since i upgraded to the Mango update last wednesday.
What i am finding is that my emails are syncing every 30mins or so despite being set to manual update only. I added 3 email accounts to my phone each via the windows live account addition option, i set them to each manually update only and only sync email not contacts/meetings etc... the mad thing is the main acount that is used under my people contact and the main hotmail/live account that is in use with the phone itself seems to stick at only updating when i tell it to sync (i have to click the refresh style sync button within the email screen) however the other two accounts after about 12hours start to go haywire and whilst they start out by syncing manual as soon as i have synced them manually once, after this they just update whenever they want too (every 30mins it appears)... i have tried a reset of the phone and starting from scratch but again eventually this flaw just keeps occuring! over and over, no matter how many resets i do
Its a real pain to be honest, when i first updated to mango i did link all the accounts together as there is an option to band all your accounts into the single hotmail livetile on the homescreen, i changed this option and decided against it, trouble is i cant remember if this issue happened then, im still pretty sure it did, its almost like the other two accounts have a mind of their own, is there any explanation as to what this could possible be?
I have tried to a rollback of my current firmware but it ended up bricking my phone so now it has gone in for a repair under warrenty to samsung, maybe it could have been a dodgy install of mango from day one? as my friend updated and he has the same phone yet hasnt experienced this email flaw, but then again he only has two accounts on his phone
Could it be the manual option no longer works in mango update?
many thanks for reading and hope someone can help, many thanks
