Hey guys,
I tried to find a solution for this...havent found one yet. I have 2 gmail accounts synced on my captivate (running perception 10). One of the accounts is a google apps account the goes with the email extension [email protected] Now ever since I added this account on my captivate all the mail shows up read on the phone and on the online gmail client. All new mail shows up as read and it is really turning into a problem because it is my work account and I need to know about the new emails as they come. I have tried reflashing, removing the account and adding it again and nothing has worked so far. Any one have any possible solutions?
I am having problems with g mail as well. It will not send emails out but I can receive with no problems. I tried the email client built into the phone and it sends out just fine.

are you using outlook (or any other client) to pull in mail from this address? My wife had this same exact issue and we had to change her gmail pop settings to "keep gmail's copy in the inbox" as opposed to "mark gmail's copy as read", which was set originally. So when Outlook pulled her emails in, it marks gmail's copy as read causing her phone's copy to be marked as read.
hope this helps.
Gday Guys,
Just wondered if anyone has had the same issues as i have with the HTC ONE XL (Telstra)?
The email setup facility on this handset gives you the obvious option to set up either yahoo, hotmail, gmail, other...
If you go into the hotmail setup (which i have), it sets up pretty much automatically after you input your username and password in. All good there. It shows my email address as normal, but when you go into it, and try and sync to view your emails, it states no emails present?
Its as if it is not syncing with the hotmail server...
Ive contacted HTC, they gave me 2 answers, the first was that they said there was no issues (useless), and the second guy i got stated they know about this and are going to be producing a patch to fix this issue....(mmmmm)...
I can add my email using the öther" option, and putting in the hotmail pop3 settings and it does accept my email address and even sync, but it will only allow me to sync once every 15 minutes... aarrrggghhhh.... lol..
Ive downloaded the hotmail app for the time being which works syncing my emails (inbox only), however it wont let me access my other folders within my hotmail account....
Just wanted to know if anyone else has experienced the same thing?
Thanks guys... sorry just noticed this is prob in the wrong section... can someone move as it wont let me delete it... grrr
Try setting your email up using IMAP or POP/SMTP. This should bypass any issues specific to your email provider.

I have read through various syncing issues, but can't find anything quite like what I'm experiencing. Also, I'm not even sure where the problem lies, whether it's IMAP configurations or a Gmail issue or an app issue. Hopefully someone can help solve my problem or guide me in a direction.
I have 2 accounts within Outlook 2007 - work email through Microsoft Exchange and a Gmail IMAP account. I have a rule set where email sent to the work account will also be copied to the Inbox of the IMAP account. On my phone (Galaxy S3) I have two Google/Gmail accounts set up - personal email (let's call it G-X) and the one that gets a copy of my work email (let's call it G-Y).
Up until a few days ago I had no problems with receiving emails and notifications but now if an email is sent directly to G-Y, I am notified through the Gmail app on the phone that I have new mail. If an email is sent to the work account, where it gets copied to the Gmail IMAP in Outlook, there is no notification, even though the message is displayed as unread/new both in Outlook and gmail.com.
I haven not installed any new apps or changed any settings on the phone recently. The only peculiar thing that happened was that there was an Exchange Server issue at work that has since been resolved. This makes me think the issue might be related to Outlook or the way the email gets copied to the IMAP account, but none of the Exchange/Outlook people I have talked to are familiar with this sort of behavior.
Can anyone shed light on this? I just want to be able to get notified when new work email comes to (gets copied to) the Gmail account set up for it.
Hi all.
I've had just about every Galaxy flagship phone in the Samsung series and am certainly not a stranger on setting up accounts.
I have 2 hotmail.com email accounts, a business and personal. I tried setting up my personal entering details correctly and I get "authentication failed" ... Hmm, that's strange. I jump on a PC and CONFIRM the password I used was indeed correct. I tried setting up the account manually (POP3) which wasn't a problem, however the device has absolutely no interest trying to connect to my account and sync. It keeps telling me the OP3 server is not responding. Sorry Samsung, but I call bull****. It's like this any day of any week, too...
I have tried changing my password on the PC to something else. I then re-attempted the email set-up and received the same error...authentication failed. Now, google, gmail, yahoo, aol accounts (etc) ALL work fine. With absolutely NO explanation WHY this won't work and zero help from the internet or anyone else experiencing the same problem, I decide to try the OTHER hotmail account...enter the details and BOOM. It worked. So why in the blue f**king hell does ONE work and NOT the other?! Props to Samsung, they've really f*cked something up here - coz this has never been a problem on any phone I've used in the past.
Anyone have any ideas?
The device is running stock ROM and is rooted (problem also existed before root)

i gave up adding all my email accounts , on the phones last yr now I just use my gmail and for my other 2 email aco****s I forward them to gmail then when sending emails in gmail I can select which account I want to send from.
I had no problem adding a hotmail account. Are you trying to add them in Android's "Accounts" section, or to the Outlook app?

Like anyone does it - adding through the default email app on the phone...or settings - accounts - email - add new
Download the Exchange Services apk and install it. Reboot and then add the Hotmail account as an Exchange account in Gmail.
Do you kneed also the E-Mail APK from Google? If i install only the Exchange APK, i didnt see a additional Exchange Account in the Accounts Section of the Settings, if i try to add a new Account. Only the one which come preinstalled.

Obviously not like anyone does it, based on my question.
Have you tried getting the Outlook app and adding your accounts directly to the app rather than using the default email app and Android's account settings?

I didn't want to use additional apps, all emails in the one place only...otherwise defeats the purpose of having an all-in-one email add on a smartphone if you cannot add Hotmail, yahoo, aol (etc) in there together.

I downloaded and installedExchange APK (boomerang)? Installed, rebooted, added the account via 'accounts' under settings as an exchange email and it worked! Didn't need anything else. See below.

Hah! You champion! This actually worked. Unbelievable. I can't and even won't rack my brain trying to understand the retardation around this and the "work around" users must perform to setup a particular Hotmail/Live account. Thank you so much!

solution found for email setup (Hotmail)
I had problems setting up my Hotmail on the S6. The password it wanted was not my usual Hotmail login but an "app" password. I changed my Outlook/Hotmail password on a PC and then it sent me an email alerting me that I needed to update my "app" passwords with "fhrkdjfruofjrdlfl" (example) and then it easily connected Hotmail to my S6 using the standard email setup menus. Hope that helps somebody.

I have had this problem for the last 2 nights and on this forum, I read about signing up with outlook or samsung. I have been trying Samsung, so I downloaded the outlook app and I then had NO PROBLEM with it! I hope this helps you.
