[Q] Blackberry Help Needed - General Questions and Answers

Have a Blackberry 8520. Trying to validate Yahoo email. Message pops up as "Your device encountered a problem with the application's server. Select ok and repeat the action to try again".
Device worked fine up to a few days ago when I changed Yahoo password. Desktop application working fine.
Any suggestions how to get my device to sync with Yahoo?

I will try tomorrow with one friend's Blackberry... tell me ow do you configured Yahoo mail?

Blackberry and Yahoo
It was not problem when I first installed Yahoo account. It ran beautifully until I did a password change on Yahoo. Worked fine on the desktop but couldn't validate with Blackberry.
Hope you can help;.\\\\\

Just uncheck "remember my account and password" and reconfig it again

Hi,
Can you tell me how to uncheck " remember my account and password" using the blackberry? Is this an option somewhere in the bb options menu?
Thanks,

I will check it tomorrow at work with my friend, I don't remember the exact walkthrough..
Are you using stock BB e-mail client or 3º party e-mail client?

Not real sure. This is a company issued blackberry and some apps turned off. I was able to install Yahoo when I first got the phone and it has worked perfectly for months. Problem when I changed yahoo password on desktop and bb asking me to validate.
Thanks for your help.

Solution (worked for me)
Hello:
So I'm at work with my partner's Blackberry.
Do the following:
Open Blackberry full menu
Setup
Email Settings
Select/Navigate to your Yahoo e-mail
Press Blackberry Botton
Edit
Go to "Login Information"
Retype your new password
If this doesn't work tell me.

So did you try that? what happened?

No I'm back to the beginning. BB is asking me to validate the Yahoo mail password. That's when I get the error message.
Any more suggestions?
Thanks,

Pocket Hotmail does not function

Yesterday I installed PocketHotmail 2.5 beta, and I just can't get the critter to work on my Qtek S110. After following the instructions exactly, I still can't authorize the account.
Does anyone know of a program that gives Hotmail support to the Inbox program? Or maybe a program that can replace Inbox (perhaps even with a function that lets me send and recieve mail for all my accounts with one click)?
Thanks in advance !
Why dont you try Pocket MSN, its built-in with any Windows Mobile device. Just sign-in, enter your hotmail e-mail add and password, thats it. Hotmail account will automatically be added to the messaging accounts once signed-in. Cheers.
pocket msn is just too big and overloaded. a simple tool like pockethotmail (costs 5 dollar) is definitely the better solution.
i've tried it too with no success. i already contacted the developer yesterday but have no reply yet, i'll let you know what he says, ok?
cheers, lutz
Hi guys, thanks for your replies. I've already tried a new program called HTTPmail provider wich works perfect. The only thing is the function that says "download headers only" does not disable the attachments. Oh well, it gets the job done! Hope you guys can use it as well .
Yes, I use Http hotmail, and it's works properly for me too.
See you
hey guys....
what is this http hotmail ?? is it http://www.hotmail.com or is it a program named http hotmail if its a program called http hotmail could someone please post it caz ive googled it to no result.....
thanks
The program is called HTTPmail Provider and enables you to use Hotmail in your Inbox.
So it's HTTPmail Provider .
just downloaded it from pocketgear.com.....thanks have'nt tried it as yet will see how it works
regards
Alright! If you need any help, let me know . The only problem with the program is that it downloads attachments automatically, but I do have an older version .
alrite mate.....if any prob will surely let u know....
cheers...

i cannot download hotmail emails..... i have a @hotmail.co.uk account would this have any effect ?
regards
is HTTP mail working for you guys on WM6.1?
Thanks
try this
When adding a new account I entered [email protected] in the email address box. This allowed me to get to the next available settings needed to configure the account. Once I configured and setup the account, I went back into the account settings and changed the email address to [email protected]. Works now
is this for the login too? or just the reply email address?
thanks
Not for login
I used all of my correct info for the login. Incoming server is pop3.live.com and outgoing is smtp.live.com in case you wonder.
I'm making progress!
at least it now asks for my password. but it keeps saying it's wrong.
are you using HTTP mail or pocket hotmail at all?
Looks like I don't need to use those programs anymore.
Thanks!
Conversetion is complicated .... To continue
Good

We need more info. What e-mail are you using (hotmail, gmail, exchange,other?), which e-mail app, what version of android do you have on your phone and what modifactions have you done, and what are the settings you using? For example,
I am running Cog beta 7, froyo, and replaced the e-mail app with this opne here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=8453938&postcount=99
I am running my hotmail, aol and att.net e-mails on it.
Hotmail and AOL was automatic in settings, but att.net required a bunch more
For exchange I am using roadsync.
I have Android 2.1
I'm using my working email with the same configuration y have on my outlook an everywhere.
I even download K-9 Mail from the market and used the same configuration and it worked.
the thing is that I what to use the standard that comes with the captivate, because amonge meny thing it has the link on the home screen and is like ussless.
Please Help.
thanks.
Did you change the sync 3 day setting? Press menu, settings, accounts and sync. Select the exchange account and change the days to 1 month. Also try sendin yourself a message, if it does not send or receive, there is something wrong with your settings.
Also if you are using exchange, check with your admin that your username did not get locked out, happend to me and I had no idea. If it is another e-mail, and not exchnage having an issue, let me know exactly which e-mail is giving you an issue.

use k-9 and forget the samsung junk. you can even put it on the launch bar.
k-9 is the fastest android mail app that ive tried. it was almost real time. not that 5 minute sync that the stock one and many others have. mail droid is similar but having both running k-9 gave the notifications first.
if you dont know how to change the apps on the launch bar, press the applications icon, press menu, change view type to customizable grid.
press menu, choose edit, move desired icon to the launcher.
press menu, select save.

I agree with Dani, if the stock app does not work and K-9 does, use K-9. If the settings are correct and it still does not work, it may be an issue with the app.

setting up Hotmail account

So I finally got fed up with not being able to send emails through my hotmail account on my phone. I set it up as POP3. I also got fed up with my messages being deleted without me actually deleting them.
I did a quick search about trying to set up my hotmail account and didn't really find an answer. I don't want to root my phone just to get my e-mail to work. I don't want to go through a 3rd party (App via market) to get my e-mails. Is there really no way that I can get my hotmail to actually work on my phone??? I mean this is ridiculous. Something as simple as e-mail doesn't work properly.
I've had my hotmail account for over 10 years and it is my main e-mail.
I use MSN and have no issues. Only thing I had to change in the stock mail app was the Security type from SSL to TLS for the outgoing server.
thanks that actually worked.

Glad it worked out!
have you tried setting it up as an exchange account. works perfect on the mytouch4g. gives me push mail and leaves messages on the server.
Server/URL m.hotmail.com
Username Full e-mail address (such as: [email protected])
Domain Leave this blank
SSL Enable this
Certificate Accept the SSL certificate when prompted
wow thanks. this worked too. now i did use the search function before i posted this... lol. thanks guys you dont know how much of a headache you saved me.
no problem man push mail works better for me instant notification. i lurk here for a buddy that has an inspire.
ok so i accidently deleted the exchange account (trying to delete the POP3 account) and now it wont let me add it again =(. idk whats wrong.
went through now... strange

Yahoo won't work anymore

My Yahoo mail stoped working for no reason, it keeps saying that my account info form my smtp is incorrect?? WT? No it's not it is correct.
Are you using a pre-configured Yahoo account type on the phone, or using a manually-configured Yahoo POP access account (requires a paid account)? I'm having no problem with Yahoo on my phone (paid account, but I'm using the pre-configured account type on the phone and the paid access for Outlook on the PC).
If it doesn't come back in a day or three, delete the account and try re-creating it.

It's a manually configured POP 3 Yahoo account that was working fine, I did no updates or configuration changes; I noticed that it bombs out when I try to send an attachment, it keeps saying my smtp account informaiton is wrong.
I forgot to mention that this has happend 3 times before and each time I've deleted and recreated my Yahoo account but this time it has not worked. This is really starting to get on my nerves; why does Windows Phone do this? My account settings are correct, ive even double checked they are the same as my Outlook on my computer; what gives?

Okay I narrowed it down to that if I don't attach a picture to it it works fine; WT So now I can't send pictures via email because I gett that stupid error. Help.
Try using the automatic Yahoo account type (which will use IMAP, and possibly a different SMTP server). I don't know why attaching an image is messing up the server you're using, but there seems to be some kind of problem.
I am having the same issue and I am just trying to send a regular plain text email. Then I went to yahoo and for some reason I had to reinstate my account. When another friend of my reported the same problem. We figured it was a yahoo, issue.

[Q] Stock Mail App

Hello,
I have a dificut with e-mail app who comes with the TF700.
Cause I don't know why, everytime that I try log in my e-mail account, the app show me the message: "Log In or Password incorrect" but my log and my password are not incorrect.
First a write my log and password and ok.... After it the app show me a screen to I select one of the three options: "POP3", "IMAP" or "Exchange",
I don't know what it is, but when select POP3 or Exchange show the messa "impossible conect with the server" or something like that.
So I select the IMAP, and the app "talk" to me that my account or password are incorrect,but it's not.
Is it a tablet problem? Is it a app problem? Is this problem just happening with me or with everybody? Have I to do something to the app run ok?
PS: I use the outlook.com e-mail, I try with other e-mail like hotmail but it don't run too
Thanks. Stay with God.
Did you create your outlook.com email as outlook.com, or was it originally @hotmail.com, @msn.com or @live.com ? If so, try to use the old domain name instead of the new outlook one.
