Issue with my phone

LOL there are quite a few things but this is mainly the biggest thing, it is getting to be annoying with this phone in particular
Is the fact I keep having to sign into my gmail...like every hour.
I have 3 main gmail accounts
One for pleasure/personal use
One for work
One for school
(I am considering switching back to WP7 & hotmail...but that is another story)
It seems every hour, I'm having to resign into Gmail. And it's not a huge deal but it is a bit annoying seeing the little notification sign that is saying that you need to sign into [email protected]
Furthermore, my Gmail is not pushing to my phone whatsoever so I am not getting any emails without having to sync it manually...even though it is said to get it whenever available.
Idk what to do or what exactly the issue is but it is truly annoying. Any suggestions would be nice?

:O wrong place for this sweety. But I have 5 gmail accounts setup and 2 personal and working fine. Which rom are you using stock? do you have them all setup under account and sync? I remember when I got MT4G and checked 2 acc's from stock rom and worked fine.

lol well where should i post this at then?
and ummm, i am actually using the phone the same exact way out of the box
and everything is fine under accounts & sync...just none of them sync or hardly
ever

You are using GMail App and not EMail App right? Ok lets see you have Background Data and Auto Sync checked? Open GMail app and click Menu> More> Setting> Notification Setting> Email Notification checked? Also make sure you have Update Schedule with fixed time on Send & Receive in GMail setting.

Can u even get gmail over wifi?

I'm glad to know someone is having similar troubles.
It's all good. I'm probably just going to trade this for a windows phone anyway.

I have 4 gmail accounts sync'd on my phone and don't have to sign in on them and get things pushed to them just fine. I'm also on the stock rom...

Just a random thought here, but try deleting one of your email accounts & set it up using the regular mail app & not the gmail app. Just giver it a shot & see.
I have 1 thru the gmail app & 3 thru the regular mail app (live, hotmail & school) & they all work fine

Yahoo Mail Problems

Anyone else having problems with Yahoo mail syncing with the Das Bamf Sense 3 rom?

i'm also having trouble, and i've not rooted my tbolt yet.

My yahoo mail hasn't synced in three days. At first i thought i messed something up because i had just rooted my phone, however, it seems i am not alone with this problem. Sure wish a fix/solution was out there.

Yep

I thought I was the only one having a problem. I'm not rooted either. Totally stock.

I don't think it matters whitch ron, I had to download yahoo app to get mail. They changed something on imap

Yeah, I usually check my mail on my phone every morning (stock ROM, stock Mail app). This morning it wasn't showing any new emails (despite the fact that I get emails from Newegg every day). I thought it might be an LTE thing, but it wasn't working on wifi, either. I cleared all my data, deleted the account on the Mail app. Tried again, and it was telling me how many messages were on the server, but it wouldn't download any of them.
Later, I force quit Mail and cleared it's data. Now instead of presenting a variety of account options, I have just Microsoft Exchange and Other listed. I picked other, put in my credentials, and it keeps coming back with an Authentication failed message.

It could be a problem on Yahoo's end

i just tried their old pop settings also, with no better luck.

Count me as someone having a problem with this as well. I noticed it a week ago Saturday as I had just installed a new ROM and couldn't get Yahoo to sync.

Try this I've been using Mail and I think you might like it. Check it out from your Android phone:

I got tired of the problems pretty sweet app or current old troublesum way..
Setting up IMAP on your mobile device To set up IMAP on your mobile device please use these settings:
Incoming Server -imap.mail.yahoo.com
Outgoing Server -smtp.mail.yahoo.com
Incoming Port -993 (requires SSL) Outgoing Port -465 (requires SSL/TLS)
Username: full email address (for example [email protected] or [email protected]) Password: the password you login to Yaho with. If you are having trouble setting up IMAP on your mobile device we recommend reviewing your phones instruction manual or contacting your mobile provider for support

I'm having trouble synching on my TB and my wife's Incredible. Is this a fluke or is yahoo blocking IMAP on purpose?

So this will only apply for Yahoo mail. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK
[1] Turn off SSL and use port 110
or
[2] Set incoming server to pop.mail.yahoo.co.uk port with SSL on 995
Yahoo has apparently a bad or expired certificate which is why people are seeing all types of errors like "Invalid Login" or when adding account "Unauthorized User please try your user name and password again" ect ect.
Again use at your own risk this was information from Yahoo support.

That solution is for POP email, not IMAP. Big difference.
With that being said, I have no solution for IMAP. Using POP you'll be able to get your mail, it just won't be "pushed" to your phone.

well it works with cm7

didn't notice. I like the yahoo mail app better. More features and notifications on new messages.

the yahoo mail app is great...it has push notifications

Seems like this is a universal problem amongst carriers and devices. I'm surprised there hasn't been any press about this.

I called Verizon they said yahoo is updating there system so I think that messed
with HTC settings some how I used the yahoo mail from the market place
earlier today and it works fine and I know stock android email also works
on my back up cm7 stock I'm looking for stock email apk that would work

I was told the same thing by verizon rep as well :/
- i just got my thunderbolt sat. and after my initial yahoo setup
using the htc email app, it worked great however I ended up
installing a bamf rom and since then it has never worked.
I'm only able to send but not receive
if you can find a stock email apk that works please update us
I would really appreciate it.

Ok I fixed mine. Easy!
Downloaded Yahoo mail from the market. Installed but I never opened it or used it. It somehow fixed the settings for my htc mail app for Yahoo.
My Yahoo mail now pushes like it did before!

Yes but you can't use the Gmail app. You have to use the HTC email app. It is preloaded on the phone. Under the settings is a option to tell it how often you want it checked. I don't understand why anyone would want to use it though when the Gmail app is true push mail and notifies you instantly if you get new mail.
Anyone know how to get push mail on the email app because I do like it's interface better than the Gmail app but I want my emails instantly without an app needing to check for new mail.

You could try setting up the htc email app using the active sync settings for gmail (like you would on windows mobile).
I have not tried this on the sensation but gmail had push enabled through active sync on other devices so I assume it would work.

Exchange sync problem

Hi everybody.
First of all, my device is running Sensay XE35.
So let me explain my problem : i try to configure an email address via sense app and I would like to get it working with push. So I choose exchange activsync, I configure it, tap next, it begins to sync but when it's gonna finish then I have a notification which tell me that it fails "error of identification by server". I try several things and did several search but no luck
Hope you could help me to resolve this.

Exchange is only used for emails using Microsoft exchange servers like a work email. Who is your email provider
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA App

Gmail.
I'm talking about activesync in the HTC Sense mail app : it should work with Gmail.
Everybody got this working with push but i can't ! i'm just getting crazy !

Why don't you use the gmail app? And when you add a new account you're selecting exchange activesync?
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA App

because, first, i have 2 accounts so i would like to use just one app instead of 2 :/ and i prefer Sense app
Yes i choose activesync of course :/ i write my gmail address, my password, then next.
I also tried to configurate it manually many times but no luck always this error while doing first sync

i'm using the HTC Sense mail app as well for gmail. i have mine configured using exchange: username =gmail email address, password=gmail password and server address=m.google.com.

yeah me too but sync fails

I think that is only for Microsoft exchange and that is why it isn't working
You want to.go.to settings > accounts and sync > add account and then choose mail and try it that way
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA App

Bro' i told you it's possible.
I'm not asking if it's possible to do like that, I'm asking why it doesn't work for me.
Nobody has an idea?

Yahoo! Mail Account: Unable to Login ?

Running Stock Rom (2.3.6 Rooted)
I've been using my Yahoo account on the stock EMail app since day one of having this phone. I've had no issues until a few hours ago.
"!" in a yellow triangle on my notification bar pops up saying, "Unable to Login/Login Failed." Sorry, can't remember the exact message.
I tried deleting the account and re-adding it, to no avail. I can login to my account via my computer and the actual Yahoo! Mail app.
But I do like the ability to have access to all my email accounts in one app.
Thanks,
DK

I answered this for someone else a week or two ago. There is no fixing it. I had this happen to me and i worked on it non stop for a day to get it fixed. I got so pissed i called Motorola. I usually never call about anything, i avoid doing that. Motorola don't even know how to fix it. You have to set up your Yahoo account with the default mail app manually. Google the settings for Yahoo pop mail. I don't know them off the top of my head plus mine is a att.net account that runs through Yahoo so it's probably different.

Just a shot in the dark here. Sometimes they change the email settings. Like server settings etc. Find out from Yahoo what your settings should be for your phone. If nothing you've done has changed this could be the issue. This happened to me with ATT about a month ago.
The End.

Need to setup manually both incoming and outgoing servers.
Or you can try K9-mail.

Always good to know...thanks for the replies.
I'll just go with the Yahoo!Mail app. It's really not a bad app anymore (used to be super slow).

I used to get horrible battery life with that app. It's been a year or so since i last used it so hopefully they fixed that by now.

Back when the phone first came out I got the app for about an hour or so.
It was extremely slow and laggy. Haven't noticed any of that this time around.
Snappy, updates quickly, and has all the options (unlike the stock app).

These are the settings i use with built in email app.
Go to manual setup > IMAP account and change to these settings....
Imap server - imap.mail.yahoo.com
SMTP Server- smtp.mobile.mail.yahoo.com
