G2x Email app doesn't work with Exchange? - T-Mobile LG G2x

I was glad to receive the phone and after popping sim from N1 the first thing I did was trying to connect to my work exchange email and no luck whatsoever. After hanging in "Checking incoming server settings..." I get error message Setup could not finish, Unable to open connection to server.
Anyone have this issue?

Looks like this issue with early builds of 2.2 and LG probably used old Email app build... damn you LG!
Found some discussion on this topic:
h t t p: / /androidforums.com/motorola-droid/17657-exchange-account-setup-question.html

Mine connects to exchange perfectly.
Did you have exchange configured on your last phone and it worked?

Mine worked too. I also use Enhanced E-Mail which allowed my to avoid the "sent from my T-Mobile..." problem others using the stock app have complained about.

i had that problem too. i didnt select Exchange (icon with microsoft logo) i just said other or something and then the second screen instead of pop3 or imap i clicked exchange at that point.

I had the same issues, pulled an email.apk from a MT3G nightly I still have and swapped it out, works just fine now.

Gmail Exhange via ActiveSync; does yours work yet?

As of Oct 16th I am still unable to get solid performance out of Gmail Exchange with ActiveSync.
There are literally hundreds of complaints across the web detailing the same issues I am having but I don't hear people saying much on these forums.
Does your ActiveSync/Exchange Gmail mail work properly? Does it work well? If so what ROM are you using?
nope does not work for me.
i get
the server you are attempting to synchonizw with is either not and exchange server etc.
anyone else??
It's works for me after i changes my user name to [email protected] instead of [email protected]
I'm using touch pro latest official rom.
Yeah you make it [email protected] rather than [email protected]
Mine is working flawlessly. I am running EnergyRom 10/14. I had the biggest pain in the ass of a time trying to set it up a couple weeks ago until I stumbled across a thread somewhere and BLAM!!! it started working.
here is what you need to do.
1.) when you enter your email address in the first step make sure it is all lower case. ie.. [email protected]
2.) make sure you uncheck the option to obtain server info automatically
3.) in the exchange address use m.google.com (case sensitive)
4.) now enter email address in all CAPS ie.. [email protected]
4.1) make sure your password is "exactly" as you would loggin in online. (case sensitive)
5.) make sure that you uncheck "tasks" and "texts" as they are not currently supported by GoogleSync.
5.1) PS> not sure if this helped me but when selecting what I want to sync I went into setting for "email" and change them to this
Download the past---- ALL
Message Format----HTML
Download size limit----Entire Message
Dont check Include file attachments.
6.) Hit finish and watch the magic happen.
Also under "Menu > Schedule" make sure that the Sync During Peak times and Off-Peak time are set to " As items arrive"
Hope this helps!
ALSO!!! make sure that you are already set up on Google Calender!! if not you are going to error out...
There were problems with it a couple of weeks ago, and it stopped working for me. I tried everything I could think of but couldn't get it working again. Then I deleted the account and reinput all settings and lo and behold it started working again and has worked perfectly ever since.

Thanks for taking the time to reply. My setup was identical to yours (all 15 times I have setup, resetup, etc) but I still have the same issues.
Contacts sync just fine (Confirmation that server address, email address, login info, SSL, etc are setup fine.)
The folders within the pOutlook/Gmail show up but nothing is in my inbox.
I can even send a test message from the phone with the gmail account, receive it at my gmail imap on a laptop or via the web, but not on the phone.
I can see those damn folders and send email, wtf.
Maybe I need to turn off IMAP on the Gmail account?
I was already set up to sync with google calendar, and that worked just fine.
I added my gmail to it, and it got all the messages, and even though I DID have include file attachments, it didn't actually get any attachments, or even show that an attachment was available to click.. so it's basically worthless.
back to checking every 15 minutes I guess.
at least with hotmail you can have it set to as it arrives.
using NFSFANs B13 ROM, gotta update to B14 still

I am using the stock Sprint HTC Touch Pro ROM
There are many bugs and occasional lags of up to a couple of hours. Here are the bugs I have encountered:
Attachments aren't delivered
Calendar does not sync existing items from phone to Google, only ones added
Contacts are missing the category data
Well fixed mine not working. All i changed from the other settings for for it not to sync text messages and tasks and it now works I think !
Mine still doesn't work, no matter what shenanigans I try. I gave up, went back to IMAP, Outlook for contacts and usb/bt sync. I push my contacts to gmail via a silly file once in a while.
Oh well, at least Imap keeps things organized between all my email.
Gmail sync
I tried many different settings, but it kept telling me that there have changes on the server and it needs to start again. The only thing which made a difference, was setting the days to push as 1. It now works flawlessly, and has worked for a complete week. (I did not try syncing folders yet) I use it only for inbox notification, as the reply address cannot be changed to my domain name. So I use imap for sending and Microsoft exchange for notification (or if I dont mind the reply address to state *****@gmail.com

[Q] Captivate Stops Checking E-Mail. Anyone else?

Did a search and could not find a similar thread addressing this issue. If I am incorrect, I'd appreciate being pointed in the right direction.
I am currently running Assonance 5.2 and have set up Yahoo and Exchange accounts, with the phone set to check for email either every 5 minutes (for my Exchange account) or once every hour (for my Yahoo account).
I have noticed that, on a daily basis, my phone will stop checking for emails altogether even though background sync is turned on. Additionally, even when I delete emails from my phone, they remain on the server. Lastly, even though I have read an email, it still shows up as unread on the server. The phone has stopped checking at random times - on Monday, it stopped checking after 3:00 p.m.; on Tuesday and Wednesday, it stopped sometime after 6:00 p.m.; and on Thursday, it stopped checking around noon.
I have tried Improved Email and K-9, but the problem remains. As an FYI, I had the same problem even when I was running an unrooted phone that was running the stock Eclair.
Have other people encountered this issue? If so, is there a way to get the email working correctly? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Same here. I use mine for corporate and I have to say my Iphone was 10 times better when it came to email etc. Sometimes I can force a refresh....others I have to reboot. But I have missed some critical emails because they just werent syncing. I have learned to deal with it although it stinks. My email blows up during business hours, so If I havent gotten an email in ~45min, I know to check it.
I had this problem in the stock email client. Clearing the cache under the applications settings menu fixed it for me. After I had to fix it this way for about the 3rd time, I switched to K9 mail and havent had a problem since. I have hotmail, POP and Gmail accounts.
Im stock, by the way.
sent from my Captivate
Thanks for both of your replies. I'm glad (sort of) to hear that I'm not the only one with this problem.
@mike parsons - I am in the same boat as you where I have missed critical work emails due to the phone not fetching my email. I also grudgingly agree that the iPhone mail client worked much better. The only thing I could do to get the email on the Captivate working again was to restart the phone. Even then, I sometimes had to restart 2-3 times before the emails were sent to the phone.
I had this issue with stock Eclair 2.1 on my Rogers sourced Captivate SGH-I896 running Eclair 2.1-update 1.
It happened rarely with POP accounts, never with G-Mail, but with Exchange ActiveSync it was disastrous. I set up and configured this, and with my old Windows Phone 6.0 it did this maybe five times in 18 months.
During the off-time between Christmas and New Years it only received e-mail properly on ActiveSync two days out of eight. I didn't get much e-mail during that time either.
Sometimes it helps if I manually changed it from automatic (push) to every 15 minutes and hit "refresh" but most often it did not. The only fix was to remove the ActiveSync account and re-establish it, and it would work fine for a week or so until it started doing this again.
Another thing that seemingly affected it, was how much e-mail I would sync. It would happen quicker if I sync'd the last month of e-mail versus let's say one or two weeks.
I had run Cognition 2.3B7 without a hitch for about a week and a half and it never happened.
I just upgraded to the stock Froyo 2.2 and I'm hoping this isn't an issue with the upgraded client.
Use k9 mail. This is lots better than stock.
@diablo009 - thank you for the suggestion. However, I had the exact same problem using K9, so I am not sure what else I can try.

Did u try configuring k9 to fetch mails at intervals? It would be "folder poll frequency" under account settings. Want to see if u did this too.
Also, some apps need "background data" to be enabled in settings. Is that set? Same question about "auto-sync" being turned on.

Thanks for the suggestions - yes, I had tried different folder poll frequencies on K9 - 1 minute, 5, minutes, 15, minutes, and so on. However, there are still times when I won't receive an email for hours even though K9 is set to poll much more frequently. I will only learn of this when I check my mail through my home or work computer. In fact, on occasions like this (when I learn that phone hasn't downloaded the new messages), I will go into K9 (or the email app) and hit either refresh or check mail. Even in these situations, the new mail won't show up on the phone until I restart the phone completely. Again, I had this problem both on stock Eclair as well as on Assonance 5.2.
Also, I had enabled "sync server deletions" on K9, but messages still don't consistently get deleted from the server.
Lastly, background sync and auto sync are both enabled in settings.

[Q] Activesync Slow

I set up my Xoom with my exchange account last week, everything was working fine or so i thought. Now im seeing that Im getting email 10-15 min after it shows up in my inbox. When I was using touchdown I would get the email on my Xoom before my computer most times. Is anyone else haveing issues like this. I prefer the stock app but I would like email to come in fast. Right now I must go into the email app and refresh it.
more info:
3g xoom
Connected to work wifi at this time
set to sync 1 week (Push as messages arive)
no contact sync
no calendar sync
Things I have tried:
removing the account, clearing data and application menu, re-add
I changed the ammount sync'd to 3days (no change)
someone help
Self bumb. HELP IM GOING NUTS. I noticed the same issue is going on with my phone too. all other users in network with android phones are fine. just me >.< could activesync be freeking out because I have 2 devices trying to sync
Noticed a bit of a delay as well today with the stock app. My phone (Nexus one) gets mail pretty much at the same time outlook does but a 5 minute delay on the Xoom. Are you guys on Exchange 2010 or 2007? We are on 2007 currently migrating to 2010 and should be completely done with the move in a few weeks. Hoping 2010 corrects the issue.
Are you using any task killers? I am so tomorrow I am going to disable them and see if there is a change.
Sent from my Xoom using Tapatalk
So no luck this morning with the default email app. Touchdown, however, worked nicely. I am actually receiving my email on the tablet before my phone now. Not the ideal solution but it works.
I have the same set up. Android phone and Xoom set up to activesync. Every once in a while, the xoom is very slow in updating. Not sure why. If anyone has any thoughts, please let us know!
I think this is an issue with Honeycomb. I have also noticed that sometimes GMail does not sync as quick as my phone does. Using the Wifi Only model btw.
Ok, after i went home last night I noticed things got better. Today while im at work everything seems ok. takes about 10 sec or so to sync to my Dinc and Xoom.
What we did to fix things:
1. logged into the mobile admin site for our active sync, I have been sync'ing virtual android systems and I had 9 different devices sync'ing everytime an email went out. so we deleted all my unused devices. ( there was 2 copies of my phone from flashing)
2. In the mobile admin site your exchange account is seen by an Alias. whith all the T/S steps I had been trying my alias in exchange got deleted. This does not prevent Active Sync from getting email to me but it does make it look a bit longer to find the right mailbox.
3. I noticed that I had many services trying to sync the same info this is bad. Touchdown was still running even after i tried to remove my account. Uninstalled it. Gmail is trying to sync books/calendar/contacts so i uncecked all ( I use exchange for everything)
4. Under running services I saw that attachment downloader was running in overdrive all the time. So in the account settings of the exchange account I unchecked " auto download attachments when on wifi." We email pdf's all the time they can get big and I saw that I would not get am email untill the entire pdf was downloaded. Also We use HTML email sigs, each sig is 3 attachments. After I made this change the attachment downloader service seemed to let up alot. if it didnt help me email issue it at least freed up some ram
Im not saying that anyone of these steps was the end solution to my problem but they all seemed to make things run a bit better.

[Q] Email MS Exchange

Anyone able to use the stock email app without any problems? I can't access my work email with the stock app. I downloaded touchdown and it works without any problems, currently using the trial, $20 not worth it IMO.
No, i have no issues with Exchange using the stock app. I connect to Exchange 2003 so I can't speak for newer versions of Exchange. Do you get any error messages?
I get a cannot connect to server message. It's not a connection issue though, if I type my password wrong, I'll get a incorrect password message.

Hmm, so you have the correct domain\username, correct mail server, checked ssl settings, and you get the same message? The problem could be on the server end. Can other android users connect to your company's exchange?
Also, if Touchdown is too pricey, you can try Enhanced Email, i've used it before and it works really well. The only downside is that it's not great with your battery.
Yes other android users are able to connect. I'm also able to connect on my girlfriends Mytouch 4G.
Are you running a ROM? If not, the only thing i can think of that might work is doing a factory reset. I had a problem connecting once but it was due to a bad flash. Did you already clear cache and data from the stock email app?
Some ROMs
Some ROMs have a working email client for my corporate email, some don't. I ahd not luck with Weapon g2x, but Trigger worked, for example. Also the nighlies I used (up to 104) worked, but miui doesn't seem to work.
My advice is try ROMs until you find one that works and report the bug onthe forums if you notice problems.
So far I've tried:
Stock 2.2
Stock 2.3
Weapon G2x
Latest CM7 nightly 119
All have the same problem. Could this be a hardware problem? It's weird, why does touchdown work without any problems?
Miui
I am using the latest Miui and it seems to work with exchange. OTOH, I was able to get several of the nightlies to work with my exchange server too.
LG G2X Corporate Email (Microsoft Exchange) Connection Problem
My phone is a T-Mobile LG G2x (LGP999) running Android 2.3.3 (latest version is updated); using Microsoft Outlook 2007 (not sure what version of Microsoft Exchange is being used)
When I try to setup a corporate email (Microsoft Exchange) on my LG G2x (P999), I am receiving an error message that states: "This server requires security features your phone does not support". The steps are as follows:
1.) Go to the Email application from the main menu.
2.) Select MS Exchange.
3.) Set up email: Type your full email address and password.
4.) Server Settings: Type Domain\Username; Password; Server; Select check boxes “Use secure connection (SSL)” and optional “Accept all SSL certificates” when first box is selected.
5.) Account Options: Select how often you want your mail to arrive and your notification preference.
6.) Type a name for your account.​
I am getting hung up on step #4 (Server Settings). I am 100% certain my domain\username and server address are correct but when I click “Next” to proceed to the next step I get the message "This server requires security features your phone does not support".
For a test, my colleague entered his information on steps 1-4 into my phone and proceeded to step 5 immediately (Account Options). This problem happened to one other individual and he had to purchase a new phone to correct the problem (a Samsung). The problem seems to be around the phone or mail-server but I am out of options. Is there some setting to get it to work?
Another test I performed, I successfully logged onto my friends phone with my account settings and managed to pull up my calendar / email. He was using a Motorolla phone that used Android 2.2 (an older version than I am using).
Other Notes:
A.) I can log into my webmail but this feature does not sync my calendar or give me instant email notifications. My email in Microsoft Outlook is working as well.
B.) My username and password combination is definitely not the problem. I tried typing in a different password and it gives me a different error (username/password entered is incorrect).
C.) I tried using “/” and “\” in the Domain\Username section. I also tried checking and un-checking the SSL options. I tried other servers available on-site (01 and 02 versions).
D.) My work technical support insists there is nothing different about my security settings but unfortunately since it is a personal device they won’t offer any real support. They blame the phone or T-mobile. T-mobile blames the phone or the server. LG blames T-mobile or the server. See my problem?
E.) I had a work phone recently that was taken away due to budget cuts so I know it is possible to get my email / calendar with an i-phone (3GS).
F.) I also tried using “Other” on step #2 and entering the information manually (selecting exchange since it is not a “Pop” server). I still get the same message.
G.) I rebooted the phone and even pulled the battery and restarted.
H.) I can connect to my work wi-fi. I activated the wi-fi and tried to enter in all the server information but it still gave me the same error with wi-fi enabled.
I.) I have setup my home email account but could not do it from the “Other” option in Step #2. (sbcglobal.net and a yahoo mail both required the yahoo app to work). I also got the g-mail account to work through the “g-mail” app.
J.) It is a brand new phone purchased yesterday 12/13/11 (i.e. factory reset seems pointless and not attempted).​
Is there some phone setting I am missing? Any help on this matter or another method to sync my calender / work emails to my phone will be appreciated!!!
Thanks in advance
I don't believe Android currently supports some features of Microsoft Exchange yet because of security permissions. There is an app in the market that bypasses those checks but it's risky, because if your phone ever gets stolen and your work needs to wipe it, they can't and you may get in trouble for breaking policy. For the most part though, they wont know. I'll search for it for you but I don't remember the name.
EDIT: Sorry didn't read all the thread My browser pulled me to the last post of the thread and I thought it was OP haha
Still though, it could just be security restrictions stopping you like I said.

It's weird that you tried CM7 and it didn't work. The stock rom has an older email.apk that is not compatible with the newer versions of Exchange and some security policies but CM7 should not have that problem.
what settings are you using?
I've used both Touchdown and the default Android email client at work without a problem, but your Exchange server must fully support ActiveSync. I would ask your IT support or server admin to help you out.
BTW, while Touchdown may seem pricey, it just works. I use it daily and would recommend it to anyone wanting to connect to Exchange servers. I tried other solutions but always went back to Touchdown. Their support service is top notch.
The only problem I have is that once in a while the email app will delete my account. It only happens to exchange, my pop 3 accounts stay there.
Edit: Of course, as soon as I say this I have a problem connecting I changed my password at work and when I tried to change it on my phone it would not work. I removed the account and added it but still nothing. I wiped the cache and davlik cache and added the account, great success.

Nexus 5 / Android 4.4 Stock Email App - Sync issues

Hi all,
Moved from a Galaxy S3 to a Nexus 5.
Everything is working great, with the exception of the stock Email app syncing with an Exchange account.
I connect to a zimbra server using the same settings as on he gs3. I connect fine and get all my email loaded. The issue is that syncing of the inbox doesn't work. Sub folders seem to but the main inbox will not even manually sync.
I have cleared the caches, removed and re-added the mail account and I still have the same issue. I can send emails fine. I have also factory reset the phone and still have same prob. Syncing is ticked in every possible setting and my gmail app push syncs fine.
Any ideas? I am at a loss and need my company email as I work on call in the evening and weekends.
Thanks!!
I have the same problem with my N5. My exchange email account would start working again if I force it to re-verify the account settings. But after a while, it would stop working.
I've been using Nexus phones since Nexus One. This is the first time we see an update on the default email app. But it doesn't look like Google has done a great job verifying/QA their app before releasing it to public.
I'm thinking to open up an official support case with Google support if you haven't already done so.
Actually, haven't you tried changing the Security Type in Incoming settings from "SSL/TLS" to "SSL/TLS (Accept all certificates)"? I just changed it on mine, and waiting to see if it helps resolve the issue.
I'm having issues with stock email client and company exchange, too.
When set to push, as i usually did on the n4, it won't let the n5 properly go to sleep, but phone keeps awake, and consuming quite a lot of battery overnight.
Sync also has stopped yesterday, but started again 2 hours later, therefore I'm not sure wether it's the n5's or exchange's fault.

Thanks for your replies. Yes I have tried this, I have tried every security method (except none, which defaults to SSL/TLS anyways).
I notice if I look under Accounts > Corporate and then my Exchange account, the sync / cancel sync animation is on a constant loop. My S3, for example, just sais 'Last sync at xxxx'. etc. Do you guys notice this also?
Something deff not right with this. How do you log a ticket with Google support? I have tried with Google Groups but getting no response.
Thanks.
Same problem here. Refreshes fine when I manually sync but push is not working. Was working fine on my Galaxy Nexus/Jellybean
I'm not experiencing any of these issues, my sync is working fine, as is the app and battery usage
Sent from my Nexus 5 using xda app-developers app
I have had to move off the stock app and onto K9. My problem is that the stock app is deleting emails from the server when deleted from the phone, even when I make sure it is set never to do so. My account is a POP account and I have never had this problem with any other app on any other device. I tried recreating the account but it was the same problem.
6 people in the company I work for got a Nexus 5. I tried to set up one of their email accounts yesterday, but it wouldn't do anything. It seemed like it accepted the account, but it wouldn't sync any old mail, and it wouldn't notify about new mail. New mail would only show up about 15 minutes after being sent, and only after the inbox was manually refreshed.
Tried K9 mail. Same thing. I have never had any luck with K9 mail, though.
I'm hoping Google fixes this rather quickly. I'm a developer and I need my work email to always be available, because I am essentially on-call all day.
It seems like Google, in their rush to get KitKat out, did way less QA this time around than they have in the past.

This is similar to what I am seeing. After initial sync, I would never get any new messages. Check your subfolders if you have any, these seem to sync fine.
Whats the process to raise this with Google?

Subfolders were not syncing for me yesterday, however, I'll have to wait until my phone comes in today to really test this. Most of the people I work with don't set up their subfolders correctly in Zimbra because they can never get the filtering to work, and I am always too busy to do it for them. As a result, they make subfolders, but just drag-and-drop what they want in that subfolder from the main inbox-- an utter pain in the ass.
In 4.3, "Take Bug Report" is one of the choiced under Developer Options. If that is still present in 4.4, that would probably be the best place to do it.
If that doesn't work, there is always this: http://source.android.com/source/report-bugs.html
Same as I'm seeing too. Initial email download worked fine. Manual sync works. Push sync is not downloading new emails

Got mine working eventually by following this youtube video - GT5uHXLO298 - sorry won't let me post a link as I'm new! Just search YouTube for this reference number.
Took 3 attempts. First time it got stuck in a sync loop. Second time it stuck at waiting for sync. Third times a charm and now getting push emails.
Slick Google, real slick!

Thanks for posting the link to the video. My auto-sync data is ticked in the Data Usage setting. If I turn off then back on again, it still makes no difference to the sync.
The thing with my issue is that I cant even manually sync, if I try, it does not update any emails which have been delivered to my Outlook client. The fact it only affects my Inbox is strange too, my subfolders sync fine.

Yes, I'm getting the exact same issue. Exchange push sync is working fine, but the e-mail app is keeping the phone awake. My phone went from 100% to 41% battery in 4 hours! I have changed the setting to check mail every 5 minutes rather than push to see if this helps in any way.
I have raised this with our Zimbra provider, and they have said they have seen this on another 4.4 device and are currently investigating. Still not sure if its a Zimbra and/or Email App issue at the moment - I am leaning towards a Zimbra issue but will wait and see.
For now I would personally think oft an KitKat issue, as my problem persists with an MS Exchange Server, not Zimbra.

Zimbra Exchange Problems
I'm having all the same issues with Zimbra Exchange on my Nexus 5. Sync will work the first time. Then it will either stop or get stuck in a sync loop.
I have just been playing with the settings and seem to have gotten it to work for a short time (well more than it has done so far)..
On the mail profile set the Days to Sync from 3 days to 'All'. I also un-ticked the 'Sender Image' under General Settings. After a few mins, it ceased pushing emails again, and the sync loop was showing under account sync settings. Its like it was working whilst it performed its 1st sync, then died straight after
My corporate email account has been pushing and such just fine since I set it up yesterday, we run an Exchange 2007 server at my office. Not sure why it isn't working for you guys..

Hi everybody,
I have the sames trouble with my new Nexus5.
I had a Nexus 4 with an Exchange Push Account and a Zimbra Push Account. No problem !
Yesterday,I configured my Nexus5 with exactly the same configuration. And that is a tragedy !
With a perfect similar configuration, the Nexus5 is unable to synchronize email for Exchange and Zimbra ... For Zimbra Sync loop and drains the battery.
Let's hope Google responds quickly
I am reassured that I am not alone
