Is there a way to auto-reconfigure an email account after a complete hard reset (for example when the battery is empty)?
Is it possible to do this with some registry keys, or with a xml script?
Thanks for the anwser (it's very important).
XML
You can do it with this xml script:
Code:
<wap-provisioningdoc>
<characteristic type="EMAIL2">
<characteristic type="{D671C70B-8EE3-4881-8045-2AEE6F731B55}">
<parm name="SERVICENAME" value="MyIMAP"/>
<parm name="SERVICETYPE" value="IMAP4"/>
<parm name="INSERVER" value="Imapserver"/>
<parm name="OUTSERVER" value="smtpserver"/>
<parm name="AUTHNAME" value="alias"/>
<parm name="AUTHSECRET" value="password"/>
<parm name="DOMAIN" value="oceana"/>
<parm name="REPLYADDR" value="emailAddress"/>
</characteristic>
<characteristic type="{4FE84006-9E8A-4158-864D-A2E1E98C3786}">
<parm name="SERVICENAME" value="MyPOP"/>
<parm name="SERVICETYPE" value="POP3"/>
<parm name="INSERVER" value="popserver"/>
<parm name="OUTSERVER" value="smtpserver"/>
<parm name="AUTHNAME" value="alias"/>
<parm name="AUTHSECRET" value="password"/>
<parm name="DOMAIN" value="oceana"/>
<parm name="REPLYADDR" value="emailAddress"/>
</characteristic>
</characteristic>
</wap-provisioningdoc>
Good luck,

ISP provided settings.
what exactly does mail do when it's trying to get mail server settings? i work for an ISP that does email as well. every phone we have tested with auto setup seems to give us different results for email servers.
droid- (domain).com
droid x- mail.(domain).com
it always seems to come up using the default mail ports.
the server settings have to be pretty specific to work on verizon's network as they block port 25 for outgoing mail. we need to set up SSL using port 465 on the outgoing server.
desktop mail clients like thunderbird and outlook have an autoconfigure feature that pulls information from an xml file located on the domain.
does anyone know if it's possible to configure a server side xml like the one in the post above?
thanks!
hello,
after about 3 years away from windows mobile, there are many things lost for me.
I want to know, if HTC Touch, or Windows Mobile, supports SMS Provisioning?
for example:
Code:
<wap-provisioningdoc>
<characteristic type="NAPDEF">
<parm name="NAPID" value="NAP1"/>
<parm name="BEARER" value="GSM-CSD"/>
<parm name="NAME" value="ANY NAME 3"/>
<parm name="NAP-ADDRESS" value="+XXXXXXXXXXX"/>
<parm name="NAP-ADDRTYPE" value="E164"/>
<characteristic type="NAPAUTHINFO">
<parm name="AUTHTYPE" value="PAP"/>
<parm name="AUTHNAME" value="myuser"/>
<parm name="AUTHSECRET" value="mysecret"/>
</characteristic>
</characteristic>
</wap-provisioningdoc>
I am using NowSMS as SMS Gateway. But when I send the OMA-Provisioning SMS to a HTC Touch, it doesn't notify any incoming SMS.
Thanks
Pai
Finally, I find some info from MSDN:
Provisioning OTA Through a WAP Push
Note: OTA bootstrapping is disabled by default in Windows Mobile-based devices. Before you can bootstrap or continuously provision the device OTA you must enable OTA bootstrapping. For more information see Enabling OTA Bootstrapping.
It looks like, that the HTC touch can't receive Push-SMS correctly.....
how to solve this problem, in order to receive a Push SMS on HTC touch?!
Hi All,
I hope you can help with this one.
I am currently creating a CAB file to automatically deploy some custom settings into several devices. I have set up Activesync and done most of the required options however there are still 2 left that i cannot seem to crack!
The main one is the Sync Sent Items check box in 'Messaging - > Outlook Email - > Menu -> Manage Folders
I would like to be able to check this box using my custom cab file but i cannot find the appropriate setting in the registry, does anyone have any idea where i can find this?
The second one is that one of the options i am deploying is to store email and attachments on the storage card however in order to do this i know that you need to disable meesaging in the Today plugin, once again i cannot seem to find this in the registry. I would like to disable this then set the storage card options so i dont run into the old Storage Card2 problems.
Any ideas suggestions greatly recieved.
Thanks in advance.

Hello!
I have tried in the last 2 months at least 20 times to make it working.
Yesterday it was officially annonced, and, it IS working.
Sort of...
In "email" official Android Application, we can't have HTML mails.
And "birthday" is pretty ****ed up too... The format is strange, and birthdays aren't in my calendar. I have some people with accurate Hotmail account, with mail, phone number and birthday, so I am pretty sure.
What is the official reply on that?
Since it is not "officially" supported, we only get txt mails?
I would like to know some more exchange-skilled person on this.
Configuration
Configuration:
1.5 / 1.6 Devices:
No Exchange support
2.1 Devices:
COMING SOON
2.2 Devices:
Create a new account from Email application:
After filling username & password, click on "manual configuration", and select "Exchange".
Then after the "\" fill the field with complete email info, and put a "m" before "hotmail.com" in the "server" field:
When asked, just select "push" for email check, and if you care you can sync Contacts and Calendar too.
That's it!
Push (no HTML) email for every Hotmail / Live customer!
Thank you Microsoft, we loved your (borked) support.
BTW:
I tested the trial edition of Exchange via Touchdown.
HTML mails are there
And, I actually have a full-featured, complete Exchange account on my university mail account.
I am using it with push notifications from a month, maybe more, and HTML mails are there.
So, why the default mail application couldn't get HTML mails only with Hotmail?
Its not MS their fault.
Android hasn't got a decent ActiveSync HTML email viewer.
Maybe google will release an update?
Maybe maybe not.

Then, why my other Exchange account is working smoothly, with the very same Email.apk?
I think that limitation is actually made on the discovery.
Sort of:
"If windows mobile 6.0 / 6.1 --> older exchange, no HTML"
"If wm 6.5 or better --> new exchange, HTML"
"if iOS --> new exchange, HTML"
"if Android --> crappy exchange, you stinks"
ActiveSync is just a protocol with settings, MS uses the default with regular settings.
It seems Android has a pretty bad application of the AS protocol.
Touchdown works fine so the problem lies in the default email client.

If MS uses the default, why I can use my other exchange account, with the very same application, with push & HTML support?
Activesync exchange is not just a protocol. It actually have a lot of past implementation, and I think that fallback are implemented too.
It's now been around since a lot of years, and in the past it didn't support HTML mails.
Same problems here:
http://androidforums.com/incredible-support-troubleshooting/70074-exchange-email-format-no-html.html
This is a problem with a sort of fall-back that kicks-in.
Email.apk is recognized as an half-supported application, so no HTML.
The problem is not in the Email.apk application, but in the way Microsoft servers assign services.
Exchange full-featured servers doesn't do this type of check, they just works the way they should work.
Pretty good, if you ask me.
Only hotmail-poor-man-servers do this type of check, and it seems that even WM 6.1 users can't get HTML mails.
Just found something:
Inside AndroidMail.Main.xml (preference file for email.apk), I can see my two accounts.
Code:
<string name="6cd5b269-4849-4c7e-8496-178f478ff5c5.protocolVersion">2.5</string>
<int name="6cd5b269-4849-4c7e-8496-178f478ff5c5.securityFlags" value="0" />
For Hotmail account.
Code:
<string name="b6130e67-37f0-48b0-aa3d-2132489377f6.protocolVersion">12.0</string>
<int name="b6130e67-37f0-48b0-aa3d-2132489377f6.securityFlags" value="48304132" />
For real Exchange account.
All differences are there.

Problem is, email.apk is perfectly working with rev. 12, since I am using it, and it even have remote wipe feature.
Look the "HTML Email" line: it reports "Yes" under 2.2 Google Android.
But, hotmail is reporting the application as 2.5 capable, so no HTML push.
I have brutally pushed a modified xml file, just waiting for some new email on my Hotmail account.
I don't think that will be enough
Edit: Obviously, that wasn't enough

I wanted to point out that configuration did not work for me until I deleted the "\" out of the Domain\Username field. Before I did that it would not connect to the server. I was racking my brain trying to get it to work, even with Touchdown, and it finally worked with the stock email app after deleting the backslash.

This is really crazy.
In theory, the domain shouldn't be required, on iPhone you have to configure that way, with empty domain.
But here on Android the "next" button will not appear until the domain field is filled.
For me, it didn't work until I put "hotmail.com" after my username, but I left the " \ " before.

Hello.
Sorry if my answer is totally off topic, because I have no android device but a WM6.5 touch pro 2...
It seems that the new hotmail Exchange push service deliberately uses an old version (2.5) of the Exchange ActiveSync protocol...
We can't get HTML e-mail on Windows Mobile either... this is not related to the client application, but to the Hotmail service configuration...
Maybe Microsoft wants to spare their bandwidth...
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
I read on the comments on the Windows Live blog that HTML works on the iPhone.
http://windowsteamblog.com/windows_...ar-and-contacts-with-exchange-activesync.aspx
Apparently it does support HTML, but as Android sees it as an old Exchange server, it thinks it doesn't.
Awesome!!!
Now, when I wanna remember what life was like with my BB Curve.... I can just open my MSN.com email with ActiveSync on my N1!!! How I missed those hideous non-html emails! I guess it's just a tradeoff: HTML with Pop3.... or ugly emails that I can ACTUALLY DELETE!!!
WTF???

Hi!
Does anyone know how to change WP7 primary account (Windows Live) user name via registry (AFAIK it's not possible by standard way)?
Thanks!
I found solution by myself, and like to share with xda members
How to change LiveID email and user name without hard reset on WP7
On the desktop:
1) Go to http://account.live.com and sign in with your old account;
2) Change your LiveID email (use existing email or get new one from @hotmail.com);
3) Save your changes and re-login with new ID.
On the handset:
1) Using registry editor or provisioning file, change these values:
[HKCU\Software\Microsoft\ActiveSync\Partners\{B2830118-7BC6-4A74-8C9A-3D8B9CEF88E0}]
"Email"=[email protected]
"User"=[email protected]
[HKCU\Software\Microsoft\IdentityCRL\Environment\Production]
"DefaultID"=[email protected]
Provisioning file:
Code:
<wap-provisioningdoc>
<characteristic type="Registry">
<characteristic type="HKCU\Software\Microsoft\ActiveSync\Partners\{B2830118-7BC6-4A74-8C9A-3D8B9CEF88E0}">
<parm name="Email" value="[email protected]" />
<parm name="User" value="[email protected]" />
</characteristic>
<characteristic type="HKCU\Software\Microsoft\IdentityCRL\Environment\Production">
<parm name="DefaultID" value="[email protected]" />
</characteristic>
</characteristic>
</wap-provisioningdoc>
2) Reboot phone.
Now you completely changed LiveID on WP7 without factory reset!
P.S. Key HKCU\Software\Microsoft\IdentityCRL\UserExtendedProperties also has some interesting values
Sensboston, you sir, are my hero!
Incredible! Thanks!
Does it also change the region of Marketplace if i change my hotmail to another one with another region?
It only changes the email associated but you cannot change region. MS creates a unique id in back which carries all your profile data and is tied to billing where one cannot change its country.
So may be only live email cna be changed but this does nit allow you to switch regions
Thanks a lot, very helpful indeed!!
How can one change the region in the marketplace?? Hard reset only,maybe??
Yes. You need to use a live id d which is of dfferent region. I have created this tutoral using one of the custom backup restore tool of this forum http://www.wpxbox.com/how-to-restore-and-backup-windows-phone-homebrew/ which you can use to switch between two backups. One can be for Us account and other for Indian account fr example.
Thanks, I was expecting as much!
I'll check out the tutorial once i get the chance.Hopefully I'll succeed!
Provisioning file
It didn't work for me using the provisioning file from post#2 with the tools of Xboxmod: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=907169.
Then I generated a new provisioning file exactly as written in the post quoted above:
Code:
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\ActiveSync\Partners\{B2830118-7BC6-4A74-8C9A-3D8B9CEF88E0}]
"Email"="[email protected]"
"User"="[email protected]"
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\IdentityCRL\Environment\Production]
"DefaultID"="[email protected]"
converted it with rgu-2-xml.exe:
Code:
<wap-provisioningdoc>
<!-- *** COMMENTO *** -->
<characteristic type="Registry">
<characteristic type="HKCU\Software\Microsoft\ActiveSync\Partners\{B2830118-7BC6-4A74-8C9A-3D8B9CEF88E0}">
<parm name="Email" value="[email protected]" datatype="string" />
<parm name="User" value="[email protected]" datatype="string" />
</characteristic>
<characteristic type="HKCU\Software\Microsoft\IdentityCRL\Environment\Production">
<parm name="DefaultID" value="[email protected]" datatype="string" />
</characteristic>
</characteristic>
</wap-provisioningdoc>
now it worked.
Your finding saved me quite a bit of headache, thanks for that!
Can you also just delete the windows live mail with this method ?
