[Q] ActiveSync on Android - HTC Inspire 4G

Hello all,
Has anyone been able to successfully configure Activesync corporate email on their devices? I'm running the latest CM7 Ninja ROM on my Inspire 4G and have been running fine for the most part, but I just got hired at a new job and have been unable to get it to work. I've searched online and have only seen very old issues, and no real resolutions.
I've also tried this on my rooted Nook Color, running CM7 Phiremod with the same results.
This is an exchange setup with only Activesync and OWA enabled....
Thanks in advance for any advice you guys can offer.

No issues here at all, we have exchange 2010 though. Not sure if that matters with ninja

no problems with exchange on android here. been using it for over a year.
by the way, the general rule of thumb around here is that if you are asking a question with your thread (you did take the time to label it with a [Q]) then it belongs in Q&A...posting questions in development is wasteful and leads to a lot of hate

We're running Exchange 2010 as well. Other users are on iPhone and BB with no issue...I've tried every combination of login, such as:
[email protected]
login
\[email protected]
domain.com\login
Activesync is configured with no SSL, and it isn't configured for rpc over https right now, owa and activesync only for remote users.
I even tried downloading the Exchange for Android app. It seems to try every authentication combination and it still won't work. The error that comes up is an authentication error.

New Member...Mytouch 4G Exchange Email Problems

First off I want to say Merry Christmas to everyone....I need help and since Tmobile is almost in possible to reach anymore I turned to the forums...I got my Mytouch 4G when it first came out and I love it!!!! First phone I ever had with NO LAG at all...But I cant send emails with the Exchange Email program? I heard everyone is having this problem? Does anyone have a fix for this yet? PLEASE PLEASE help !!!!...
Thanks, Ken
My Exchange ActiveSync account works fine here and has since I got the phone a few days after release. I also use EAS for my Google Apps account on my MT4G.
What happens when you try to send? Do you get some sort of error, or does the email sit in your outbox, or get saved to drafts?
Likely it's a problem with the Exchange settings on your phone or your organization's Exchange configuration. Best bet would be to talk to your Exchange admin.
When I send an email it doesnt show in my sent box or my outbox it just disappears from my phone and it never reaches the person im sending it to..I heard HTC knows of the problem but I called there and got no help like they didnt know anything about it...I heard its something to do with the Active Exchange 2010...I guess the Iphones had the same like problem but Apple fixed it already..I can do anything with the email except SEND.....Sucks bad cause i need it for work
Oh man, I forgot about that bug...I had a couple clients whose iPhones didn't work with their Exchange servers until iOS 4.1 was released.
I just tested with an Exchange 2010 server and am experiencing the same issue as you. As far as I can tell, there are 2 workarounds, one you can implement and one your Exchange admin can implement:
1) Install the default Google email app from 2.2. It works properly with Exchange 2010. You will lose search capability for your Exchange mailbox(es) with this, though. Here's a thread where someone posted the apk. I tested it out and it works for me:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=729753
Alternatively, you could pay for and install the Touchdown app from the market. Personally, I'm not a big fan of it.
2) Your exchange admin can create a new EAS policy for you (it can be exactly the same as the default if that's what is being used):
http://social.technet.microsoft.com...0/thread/bcc50ce4-0c97-4851-987d-1f5080d7942b
Please note that I attempted this with the 2010 testbed server I have access to and it did not work. However, this server does not have Exchange 2010 SP1 installed. I can't install the SP to this VM until my coworker is done using it for testing, so I can't tell you if this workaround works properly for our devices.
Good luck...sorry for doubting you, I forgot I was still using my phone with 07 servers.
Thats more than a bug....lol...But Thank you I will look into this

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!

[Q] Exchange and ICS 4.0.3

I have looked all over and can't get a good answer on this, I recently updated my Galaxy s2 Att to Siyah 30.31 v3.2.2 and running Phone-Bricker v2.7, before that was Mystics pride. The problem I am having is setting up Exchange email, I have all the settings set correctly as I did on all prior roms and kernels, but it keeps giving me either a (user name or password) error , or an IOException error if I try and use an exchange email app from the market. NOTHING WILL SET UP. Help please.

+1, I think you should try another app
I have tried almost every email app that is Microsoft exchange compatible that ALL give me an error. I read somewhere else its a known Samsung ICS issue. Most people that HAVE to use exchange are going back to gingerbread:/ that is my last resort.

Might be a Samsung issue but:
I am running ICS 4.0.3 Objection#2 UCLD3 ROM on a Galaxy Note i717.
2 different Exchange accounts, on 2 different server versions: Exchange 2010 and one 2003. Both set up and running flawlessly in the stock email app.
You don't mention what server version you are trying to connect to, 2007 and 2010 do require ssl, and if using a self signed cert you must be able to select "Use any certificate".
I know if that option isn't available it will likely be impossible to connect to either of those server versions with a self signed cert.
I know this doesn't help your issue, but to say it's a blanket Samsung ICS issue would seem to be incorrect.
I am in the same situation, 2 Active Sync accounts: Zarafa Z-Push and Exchange 2003. Zarafa seems to work, but Exchange Account stalls at a certain mail and nothing helps. After I delete the account and re-create, it progresses not to the same mail, but another one and stalls there.
I have tried AOSP from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=25004492&postcount=129
replaced the one from my (very great) distro (http://android.doshaska.net/cm9), results the same...
I am very sad, b/c I love my new milestone in every other aspect

[Q] Email problems

I have an issue with the standard Samsung email app. I am a teacher and use my Note at school. I have it configured to access the school WiFi and it can access the internet (using Chrome) through the proxy server. However, I can't seem to use the email app. One of the features that I really want to use is to be able to email students in real time records of improvements suggested to their work which I am writing and sketching on the Note, but these emails all seem to fail continually in school only to go as soon as I get home. My ICT Technicians have suggested a different email app rather than the stock Samsung one - any ideas on how to do this?
Are you using a school-provided email account? If so, it's hard to say what the problem might be, not knowing what type of mail system they're using. If they're using an MS ActiveSync Email server, the Samsung email app should support it. Here's a quick how-to guide put out by Samsung. http://www.samsung.com/us/support/supportOwnersHowToGuidePopup.do?howto_guide_seq=7046&prd_ia_cd=N0000003&map_seq=48169

Hi there - yes it is school provided email using MS Exchange server. Settngs are OK because it woks perfectly from home. I have access to internet, but email app can't see it. My ICT Technician has a Nexus 4 with vanilla email app and this works OK with the proxy server, so I was thinking some incompatibility between Samsung email and exchange. We have come to the conclusion that we need to try another email app to eliminate things. Not sure how to do it, though, as quite a few threads mention rooting tablet and I'm not keen as it is only 10 days old!
Well, when you are at work and can't send an email have the IT staff see if your note is blocked. This can happen when an IOS or Android device sends too many sync requests within a short period of time. The Exchange will block a device when this happens and wll prevent the device from connecting for a period of time. Another suggestion made by Microsoft is set devices to manual update to alleviate the block issue. Good luck.
I'm pretty sure its not blocked, but I will check. Thanks for the suggestion.

It seems to me that it is just the settings of the smtp server. You could try using the smtp from Gmail, so that you can send from both home and school.

[Q] in KK.4.4.2 Native Exchnage Email App email-search does not work ?

Greetings folks,
I want to use to Native Email App which came with N5, KK (4.4.2). After the update to 4.4.2, I was able to configure my Official Email account using SSL certificates. But I am still not able to -
1. Search the emails
2. Auto Sync my sub folders. I have to enter them and swipe it down to sync it. No auto email notification like inbox.
I am using TouchDown the free version. It is expensive to buy a license, plus it is not well integrated with ROM.
I rooted and installed KangKat and then Carbon, thinking probably it may work in any of them. It did not.
What do you recommend. I have checked with other fellows in the team, they say the Native App sucks, and it does not have search capability, some of them shifted Galaxy-4. I could not find any touchwiz ROM, or for what matter any any HTC Rom. I am sure their email app are better than Native Exchange Email App by Google.
Please recommend I need to -
1. an Email Client which is able to do two authentication. I mean in which i shall be able to import my certificate before i connect to the exchange/mail server.
2. be able to search my email
3. Sync my Calendar
4. Sync my sub folder.
Another good to have feature, probably i will spend time later figure out how to change the ROM, so that when i install SSL certificates for phone, it does not by default enforce security and i have to put a lock-pin (such a time waster).
Thank you fellows.
Thanks
