[Q] ebedded images issue email exchange honeycomb - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
Have been searching wildly for a fix to this and im reaching out for help.
Scenario: Standard email client in honeycomb 3.01 with an exchange account setup.
Issue: embedded images/ html images do not show in body of email. Please note that the issue does not rectify when pressing the show pictures button as nothing changes. All you will see is the box where the image would be and the blue question mark. The images seem to be in the attachments tab and i have the choice of view or save.
Has someone come up with a reason this happens and how to fix it?
Note also that the same exchange account is set up on my froyo htc desire and have no problems at all.
Thanks in advance

Is anyone else having this problem?

Pictures not displaying in Emails
Jip! I have the exact same problem and have found no solution yet?
Anybody?

Which version of Exchange are you using? I can confirm that viewing embedded images in standard TF101 Honeycomb 3.01 mail app does work just fine when connected to and Exchange 2007 account (using the Exchange protocol of course). I just tested and verified that it works.
Maybe you're on Exchange 2003 or 2010? Or maybe it's a setting or option within Exchange your admin must change? I hope that info helps.

I also encountered the same issue, I set up 2 exchange accounts.
Both do not display the embedded pictures, the pictures are shown in the attachments list instead. Weird, in my Android phone, they are shown correctly. I think our Exchange is 2007 version.

There should be a "Show Pictures", click it.

when you click show pictures it does nothing.

Yes, the show pictures in GMail works fine displaying the embedded pictures, but the show pictures in the regular mail client does not work at all (with 2 Exchange accounts I have set up).

Has anyone resolved this issue yet?

Check with your Exchange Admin. There is the possibility a recent Exchange Security Update may well have been installed at the server level that is affecting your display. Consider asking about any firewall setting, too. Hardware appliances are updates often alsong with Exchange.
Have you tried using OWA (Outlook Web Access)? If you are enabled, try that also.

This has been an android issue since 1.6, google doesn't really care apparently.
Time to round up the mob!

Exchange questions

I am new to Android. Have been a longtime WindowsMobile user. The Captivate has a menu to synchronize with exchange including mail, contacts and calenders. I got mail to work, but contacts and calender do not synch. I would assume it is officially supported since it is in the menu. Has anybody else got it to work, meaning can you pull contacts and calender from your exchange account down to your phone?
Yes, mine works fine. Is auto synch off under menu/synch?

Mine is working fine too. I went in and disabled the Contact synchronization and it looked like everything (mail, calendar, contacts) is all enabled by default. I think I remember seeing the settings when I initially set it up too. Go into your calendar and then into the settings and make sure it is displaying your exchange calendar. Same thing with the contacts.
Mine works great. In fact a little tooooo good. I have it syncing with my Google contacts and my exchange contacts. . .
One note. The client on the Captivate is not a full exchange client. That's apparently an Android V2.2 feature. That means there are some features that worked on my BB and my Nokia E72 that don't work on the Captivate. The most notable, and irratating is any http link embedded into an appointment note is treated as straight text. So if you have an airlines check in appointment, or link to a map - you can't just click on it and have a browser take you to the link. . . .or at least I haven't figure out how to make that work yet.
ok. The whole Activesync exchange seems very screwy on Android. I deleted exchange account and re-added it. Now, I can see and synch all my contacts, but I only get some of my calender items. I downloaded TouchDown, and via Touchdown I can sync my email but I do not see contacts or calender. I am pretty techsavvy, so this just baffles me.
Is it possible to look up a name against the GAL/company address book with the stock android client when composing an email message?
I have been able to "Lookup" emails through the GAL. Simply type a name in the To Field, hit search. You are taken to a new screen where you can do a lookup. One note though. I have not seen FULL integration with the GAL. For instance, our company has Email, Direct Dial, Fax, Cell, Address all entered in the AD. This makes it easy to look up phone numbers. Cant seem to get that to work in the phone search
having issues sending appointments from phone
I'm using Exchange and stock email client. I've tried to send meetings to people in my GAL, but they never receive the invite. Anyone else having the issue?\
This is a known issue with the captivate. Hopefully there is a fix on the way. It was supposed to work seemlessly out of the box, but there are some problems.

Has anyone tried TouchDown Exchange with G Tab?

I have the stock email program working with exchange but I can't get Touchdown to work. I would like to get it up and running since it can handle HTML emails. When I try to activate ActiveSync it just hangs forever.
Thoughts?
I have the same issue as well. It worked for me by bypassing ActiveSync and just letting it setup Exchange 2003 mode. Trying to get ActiveSync working now.
On the plus side, it appears that Touchdown has a tablet optimized view akin to traditional Outlook.
Same here, activesync appears to be broken
IMEI
There is another thread floating around that discusses this issue...
I believe the problem with TouchDown is that it tries to send the IMEI of the device to the ActiveSync server. This is hard coded into the application, and causes problems since the GTab doesn't have an IMEI.
TouchDown support said their developer will "be in" next week and will look into the issue - their current "official" response is that WiFi-only tablets aren't supported. Who knows when we'll see an update, though.
Exchange 2003 polling is very slow and buggy, and I was only able to get it to sync my contacts (not email). I'm using the default email client until TouchDown is updated...
Please move this conversation over to the following thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=851002
There appears to be a beta that resolves the IMEI issue. TouchDown support seems to be responsive on this issue, and it would be productive to consolidate everything into one thread.
Alternative
I've been using "Moxier Mail" instead of Touchdown for a long time... Works great on Gtablet too.
Only real limitation is only works with a single Exchange account.
The touchdown beta works
If you go to the google groups for nitrodesk you can find the Touchdown beta. They have fixed it and it works fine on the gtablet. They do have a tablet mode, but it needs work. Not as polished as the original view and needs a bunch of quirks and UI things changed,

email app broken since android 2.3.5 and sense 3.0...

Hello everyone,
I've experienced some problems with the built-in email app since the update..
Ive got it configured with 2 exchange accounts (private and corporate), and the problem is basically inbox sync.
If i, on my pc or webmail, mark as mail as read/unread, move it, delete it, whatever - it gets synced to the servers np, and to the Enhanced Email app(installed to test) - But the built-in from HTC does not see the updates, my inbox gets new mail, but the existing mails is not synced to other folders or marked/deleted.
Anyone else experienced this? And maybe got a fix?
Best Regards,
Yes, I have the same problem, when using an Exchange server and downloading email to a PC client using POP. New emails are downloaded OK to phone but when they are deleted via POP from the Exchange server this is not reflected on the phone.
This problem did not exist before the so called upgrade.
I also have the missing Power Off Button problem.

unable to see Exchange emails. any fixes?

Some of my Exchange emails are not showing properly.
Is there a way to fix this? simple fix?
will rooting fix this?
If this can't be fixed I'll have to exchange phone since this is primarily my work phone.

It's the same for me...they start ok then after a few hours the formatting is all gone. It truncates the emails to 100k (says it is set by the server but no the program seems to have this issue). I haven't seen a fix for this
I finally broke down and bought Enhanced Email in the Play Store ($9.99). It setup much the same but keeps all the formatting and push works with both 2007 and 2010 Exchange servers. K-9 mail (free) only works with 2007 not 2010 (which my work uses).
Enhanced even has a 1x1 widget to display unread on its icon.
damn... i may have to have my company expense that.. lol...

[Q] Sync email driving me nuts - pse help

When my 8010 note downloads email using the standard email app it syncs with every mail left on the email servers. Despite searching I cannot find a way to have it download only new mail since last connection.
Currently I have 5 email accounts and all sync up to two weeks worth of mail each time I connect
Is there any way to set this to new mail only? I need to leave the mail on the servers as I am away fairly often and might miss some if I clear it earlier than two weeks.
Also weird is that the trash empties OK but shows 23 on the folder!
What settings have you used pop or imap and what email service are you using
There is option in options which tell how back do you sync and also to certain extent there is a setting on your server tell what to sync
Thanks for reply.
I'm using POP for all accounts.
The only thing I have found is Email Sync mail On/Off.
Where are the Options you refer to?
I'm using JB UK version.
ok I cannot pin point the exact settings as I am using active sync but I used it earlier just go to the settings there is in the accounts the duration you want to sync also if you are using gmail please change settings in gmail also.
I really had loads of issues with syncing with pop account on stock email app and hence I configured activesync which works same like gmail app
Thanks, but I don't think there are any additional settings in normal mail, hopefully someone will correct me

Look on the mail sever side for options to download only new messages. It's really the mail server software that keeps track of what you've downloaded. I would look for settings options labeled pop mail settings or something along those lines.
Don't think that would work, because the server would stop other machines from downloading that were not up to date. AFAIK this is normally set on each email client.
Anbody find a solution for this?
Just can't believe there is no way to set the sync to download only once.
Are there any other mail apps that have intelligent sync settings?
Gettings mail that I downloaded two weeks ago repeated every day on the note 10.1 just sucks!

try Aqua Mail. i found some nice features in it.
free version gives you up to two accounts and enforces a signature.
OK, I have 5 accounts on my Note so free one is not usable
Secondly can you confirm that it solve the sync problem I am trying to fix?
