Ok just picked my up today and have the TNT 2.02 installed. I have gmail all setup, but when I view contacts they are empty? My phone auto syncs up fine, I have tried to se3arch the forums but search feature shows down every time I try.
Am I missing something?
Thanks
1. Enter your email address ([email protected] or [email protected])
2. Enter your password.
Next screen, you MUST do the following:
1. In the Domain/Username box, enter: \[email protected] (where example.googleapp.com is the email address used in the prior screen)
2. In the password box, you can either skip it (if you entered your password on the previous screen) or enter it here.
3. In the server address box, you MUST type: m.google.com

The way I did it in TNT Lite 2.0.2 is to go into Contacts and add a "corporate" account with my gmail credentials. Then when you go to account settings, the above will be automatically loaded.
After you do this, it does take a while for things to start happening but your calendar and your contacts should begin syncing. My calendar updated within a minute but my contacts started after about 2 or 3 minutes.
Hope that helps.
I was set that way already, I deleted the account and re did it and still not contacts or calendar? Gmail is fine.
It can take a while for the contacts to sync, like hours. A possible kick-start is to export your contacts to vCard, and put that file on your sdcard, then import them to your "phone only/unsynced" account. It has seemed for me that my syncing starts to work after that, though it might be coincidence.
I'm still not getting more than my default calendar syncing.
Is the Gmail in TNTLite 2.3? I wonder if the account setup issues (where you don't see contacts and calendar as a syncing option when you set up Gmail) would be tied to that, if somehow the account setup needs to be done with Gmail 2.2 to get all syncing working right.

Ok, I finally got the contacts working with a wipe, but calendar is still empty?
i was able to get my calendar to sync but no the contacts.

I have 2 identical Fuzes, both have been upgraded to NATF's 2.2. One is working just fine, but one refuses to send email to a GMAIL account. I've checked the settings and it can get mail just fine, but can't send. Does anyone knoe of any problems with GMAIL and the Fuze?
For my Gmail account to send emails, I had to:
In the email tab, select accounts ->accounts -> Menu, Options -> select Gmail -> edit account setup-> next,next,next -? Advanced Server Settings -> Require SSL for Incomming and Outgoing email checked.
I think that should fix your issues, the "Auto configuration" got everything fine except for that settings...
double check the email account in question to see if pop3 access has been enabled, its in the gmail options (log in to your gmail account via pc and check it).
I had this problem yesterday and it could be the same.
Apparently there's a bug in WM6.1 that if the server doesn't answer once, it cycles to a blank server name. There's a fix out for it.
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...2E-D2DD-44F2-86E5-1E53AAD7FB7A&displaylang=en
I orginally fixed the problem by deleting the account and re-making it but this is supposed to be a permanent fix.
Switching to SSL didn't help. I'm using IMAP vs POP but I'll check that.
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.

So I'm coming from a Samsung Fascinate, and so far I love this phone. However, the email app bugs the hell out of me. I have set up my Yahoo and Hotmail to sync through push. The emails sometimes do not come through for hours after they are received though. Additionally, deleting emails from my Fascinate used to delete them from the inbox on the server as well, so when I check through a browser, they will be gone. Now, this doesn't happen. A copy remains on the server, and I cannot find a setting ANYWHERE to disable that. Does anyone else notice this or have a fix?
Thanks
Just downloaded the respective Hotmail and Yahoo apps and they push immediately and correctly. Now I am trying to delete the email accounts from the stock email app, and it errors out. I tried removing them from accounts under settings and it says I have to completely wipe the phone as the accounts are being used by an app. What. The. Hell.
I think I have it figured out - it's in the setup of the email account and the server settings.
To set up a screenname / email address:
Main menu
Applications
Email
Menu
Accounts
Click add account
Select Others, not AOL
Enter email address and password
Here's the important part - choose the manual setup, not next. This will take you to incoming server settings. It should fill the settings automatically - IMAP / [email address]/ imap.aol.com / 143 / None
Hit next.
This is the outgoing server settings - again, auto filled - smtp.aol.com / 587 / None
Hit next. Then you customize the sync settings, name the account, choose your display name, and then hit Done. In Email, you can tailor signature settings, etc.
The key is the manual setup and having incoming and outgoing settings right - this fixes the trash syncing, allows folders to be displayed, etc.
Hope this helps
I have 2 gmail accounts. My phone's contacts sync to the first account I entered. I want the phone to sync to the second account, not the first. I turned off the contact sync on the first account, and turned it on for the second account, but the phone will not sync (download or upload) contacts with the second account.
I have a Samsung i897 Captivate running Cyanogenmod 9.
How can I get the phone to sync contacts with the second Gmail account?

I case anyone else has this problem, I thought I would post what worked for me.
I had the contacts entered on my phone, and they were associated with gmail account 1. Of course, they would not sync with account 2. I used Contac_BackupPro to backup the contacts from the phone to its SDcard. I copied them to my PC. I went on gmail account 2, and imported them. That got them into the acccount I wanted them associated with.
I have three email accounts using the stock email app, and a gmail account using the gmail app. The three accounts using the stock app are all set to sync manually, and the peak schedule set to off. The stock app still syncs throughout the day, does anyone know how to set it so it will only sync when the app is opened up?
I had the same problem. Only way I could keep it from syncing was to turn sync completely off in the email app's settings. Then turn it back on when I wanted to manually sync.
Same problem with manaul sync of email
Bought my S7 today and have discovered the same thing. Setting sync schedule to manual does not seem to have any effect. If Sync account is on, I get mail; it's if off, I don't. I'd like to set Sync account to on, then request mail when I want it. The pdf manual reads 'To manually retrieve emails, swipe downwards on the screen.' But if Sync account is off, swiping down doesn't retrieve emails, and if Sync account is on, the emails are downloaded before you swipe.
Bug?

Move your Gmail account to the stock email app and you can set it however you need. It would be easier to have all accounts in one place anyway.

Have you tried through Settings > Accounts long press on Google and turn off Automatic Sync in there for G-Mail and any other Google services you don't want to sync automatically.
Then when you open the G-Mail app just pull the screen down to update your messages which will sync manually.

If you turn auto sync off, it will nor sync by pulling screen down.

If you turn it off then when you open your gmail app and slide the screen down you will see the circle icon rotating and any new emails will be loaded into you inbox, I know it works because I use it, if you have no new emails nothing will change.

Same here. For the gmail account I use the gmail app. For the other two accounts (one is yahoo one is work POP account) i use the S7 stock email app. The stock email is better for me as it allows me to sort by unread and select all. All set on manual but keeps synchronizing. Very annoying...

Yes it is. And there doesn't seem to be a way to fix it.

I have the exact same problem.
I want manual sync (no automatic sync) for my work email after 17:00, but I want to be able to open the app and browse emails offline (WITHOUT the app instantly triggering a sync). This worked in my S5 but has now changed in S7.
Agree that it is a bug!

Any suggestions??? More bugs - bought S7 -just set up my business email as POP3 (yahoo small business with email on Yahoo server) thru email that comes with S7. Want all my emails from my email acount on phone - several years of them that amount to under 2GB (sometimes need see all conversations from past with client while not hear laptop in home office) and then want to sync every 15 min and have new emails sent to phone - (on laptop use microsoft outlook set up as pop3 to leave on server when download). Also since I am starting new bus but want to see emails from old bus only way to do on phone is Pop3 (if stop paying Yahoo yearly fee will delete emails from its server for that email account). My old Blackberry did this perfectly - downloaded all , then every 15 minutes just downloaded new when synched and could just flick thru them. In prior Samsung S (did not own one) used to have setting in synch to "period of time" to sync - in S7 now asks "how many emails to load"- even if set on TOTAL does not seem to be willing to download all my emails. to the phone. Only loaded three months then went back while phone still on, and only one month shows. Whole purpose of Pop3 is to download ALL emails in an email account. Then when delete an email deletes from phone and server. Any fix for this anyone knows? If this just a limit in the native email app in phone or in Android OS so in all phones? If just this app anyone know an email app for non-exchange and exchange servers that will permit you to download ALL emails in email account set as pop3?
Yes - this sucks - I have used a note3, note4 and the manual sync rmail works great - I tried a note5 and it would sync automatically (even though I set it to only manual sync) I KNOW how to so this (since I did it with the note 3&4. ---- the note 7 also has this problem - WHY didn't samsung fix it? It's ANNOYING to be woken up with email alerts, and it's annoying to have to turn sync on and off. We paid a lot of money for this phone - it should work.... come on Samsung......
