Hello,
I never rooted my Sensation, and I just got the official ICS and Sense 3.6 last week.
I found some minor issues that I believe HTC will fix at the near future.
Generally I think it's great update.
The greatest problem is that it always "forget" the mail settings!
I find myself changing the Sense 3.6 mail app settings, and the same at the Exchange Activesync - and it always back to defaults.
So simple: Push mail to my Gmail, mails from 30 days back and fully sync to the Gmail at my PC (when I read mail there, mark it as read!). - and it doesn't work well!
Do anyone else having this problem?
Do anyone can solve it?
Tnx

Anyone else have the issue of not being able to get pop email from cooked Rom's? I can get exchange mail, I can get phone calls, and hear the system sounds fine. I just cant get pop mail to work. I have tried about 4 or 5 Rom's, and all the radios listed in the sticky post. Please let me know how you fixed it, or if you know how to fix it.
thanks.
Maybe it is more of a setting for the POP account than the ROM's / Radios you have tried.
Maybe the POP accounts settings or port or something else - you are using improper settings? Hard to say...
Maybe someone will chime in with news about 4-5 ROMS all having problems with POP email.
need to go through the account settings in outlook to make sure you are using the right connection. 99.9% sure it is not the rom, just the connection settings
Its the same setting I am using for the one rom that will work. And its gmail, and verizon, so it auto downloads the settings from the web.
Did you make sure you have gmail setup to use pop3 connections?
yes I did. On the rom it works with, I can set it up and work with radio .09, but if I just change to any other radio like .11 or .17 or any other is will stop working. Then change back to .09 it will work again.
can anyone help?
email just broke today
My email was working last night as late as 11 pm. As of this morning I can't even get email to launch! I have tried launching via the today screen, windows live and thru the programs pull down. Now get this, I did a hard reset and reflashed and did a restore of the last good working backup..same thing! I'm running dutty's v7b hybrid rom. Also, voice command just started giving an error immediately on a soft reset. i don't know if this is related or not, but I just started searching for email issues and saw this thread. I have both hotmail and yahoo mail account configured. This after about of week of working fine with a replacement tilt for te 3G bug. Is it possible for AT&T to send something via an update that causes problems for cooked roms? I mean why won't a reflash fix this?
rich
a little help
One thing that I had to do with my comcast email was to forward it to a hotmail account. Nothing I tried would get my comcast email to work on the tilt. This works(or worked ) great for me. My issues are some sort of conflict with apps or a memory leak of some sort, but in general I suspect some email providers don't support pop for whatever reason, so maybe give the forward to hotmail a try.

Perhaps it may help to be a bit more specific with the problem that you are having? Are you getting any errors or is it that the mail has simply not just appeared? If the latter is the case, not to insult your intelligence, but be sure to go through gmails settings and first of all enable pop...secondly, if you'd used pop somewhere else prior to that phone, you have to tell gmail again to re-enable pop mail even if it has been downloaded (I'm paraphrasing the wordage). You'll have to do this each and every time you switch the device/software you use to get your pop mail. (Imap wouldn't but imap currently is screwed from gmail's end)
without re-flashing my ROM, I can’t get the error, but it said something to the effect that it cannot connect to the server check the dialing rules. Every time I tell it to do a send a receive it would disconnect the 3g, reconnect it about 2 times, then give a issue with the 3g connection. And it’s odd because 3g works with everything but pop mail. It works for internet, and exchange email. It just when I do pop email. I have only been able to get pop to work with official att ROMs, and with radio .09

Ok, now I know exactly what you are talking about. I've had the same problems before, it seems as if autoconnect for some reason when I flashed didn't work fully. What I had to do was install the carrier settings cab that I kept over from my previous device. On some roms this happend for me, on others it didn't, it probably has something to do with the rom being HTC based or AT&T based. Try installing the Cingular/AT&T carrier settings cab found here.

I've attached to this thread as well. Be sure to report back if this works or not.
great, thanks I will have to flash it tonight and test this out. It would make me very happy.
no it did not work. It killed the internet on my phone.

For what its worth since you're flashing ROMs, try flashing Q-Mobile 1.2 (sounds like you'd want the Tilt version since you're a US AT&T user). I can confirm that pop mail works just fine so if it doesn't work for you there then you can safely assume it is something other than your choice of ROM brand that is causing the issue. Cheers,
I found what it was, I had to change isp.cingular to wap.cingular
Glad to hear...sorry it didn't work immediatly.
Okay so I have leedroid 1.1 and i have also had this problem with Android Revolution 1.1.3.
It seems as my phone is always sync'ing all the time ! the little sync icon on top is always there. I even go into Accounts and click on each account I have and none of them are sync'ing but the icon is always there....my heavy battery loss also supports my paranoia. I have everything syn'ing every two hours besides mail (1hr). Only thing that is push is HTC Hub.
Any Help?
Yep, noticed that too and that is why i returned back to stock. It seems each one of these roms all like sense. I wish the devs could just create one with sense and one without.

Had the same with stock rom till i got coredroid rom.
i have this issue with stock rom. i turned off auto sync, and clicked the sync all, and then again to cancel sync.
Had an issue like this on my MyTouch 4G not sure if its the same problem for you or not but mine was caused by deleting the FriendStream app
I think i found the problem !
I was using Advanced Task Killer by rechild with autokill on crazy and autokill on screen off. Once i uninstalled and put back my original Taskiller by ax my battery litterally halted and i only get the sync icon once in a while...when it is actually sync'ing !
is anyone else having issues with exchange in ALL roms based on the OTA update based on android 2.3.5.. Sometimes when it displays an error connecting or similar (when internet is down or the WAN connection has no internet etc), it gets stuck in that loop (displaying error), even if by then internet connection is OK, the conmnection to the exchange server would not be reconnected. Manually syncing still displays a connection error.. then the only solution to un-stuck it is to open the email app..
All Roms (except viruous unity, which is not based on the update) have this problem..
It happens with both Hotmail and Gmail account (set as exchange AS)
a single yes or no would be nice
And I'm seeing reports of sync issues (failure to do 2 way sync properly), so would also like to know if syncing to a real corp Exchange account (which I do now) will become a problem if/when I upgrade from 2.3.3/1.47.110.3
I did get into a continuous sync loop once before. The cure was to delete and recreate the Exchange account on the phone...
Hyperion is based on the official 2.3.5 RUU, and exchange works fine. If fact, I depend on it for work, and all my contacts are synced from there.
Cheers

don't get me wrong.. it works most of the time, but once it displays an error msg, it gets stuck in that loop
I am having problems with 1and1 exchange active sync after the 2.3.5 OTA update with it being incredibly un-reliable and keeps throwing erros (socket errors, not actually doing a full receive, staying in a loop).
It is soooo frustrating; question do I report it to google or HTC?
Thanks
Exactly.. this is what I mean. Totally unreliable. Exchange is broken in all 2.3.5 roms I tried. I went back to virtus unity which uses 2.3.4 and it works 100% ok. I think it is an HTC problem.. but can not be sure.
I see this mentioned in various posts...but can we get a single thread started where we address this issue if it hasn't been addressed already. I need this working for me bad! I noticed some have gone back to Gingerbread...which I will more than likely do but I dislike Gingerbread! I'd rather stay with ICS only if I can get MS Exchange working. It prompts me to invoke security settings but takes me to storage settings???? I have seen where someone even went threw this but it still did not work. I still get the constant bubble at the top of my phone stating that MS Exchange is unable to sync because security settings haven't been enabled. With Gingerbread all you had to do was hit activate then put a pin in and wow your done....with ICS it does not do this...
I run ICS AOSP on my HD2 and it syncs with our Exchange server perfectly. What's the problem?

1. Wrong AREA to post
2. You're using a beta rom, so go back to GB
3. Use a different client in ICS
What do you recommend me using. Aren't they all BETA's?
I use stock email from ics and push mail working good with HTML support.
I have an HTC Sensation and I cannot get it to sync on a fresh flash. Using ICS Stock email
InsertCoin 4.1.1 Android Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0.3 – Full Rom
Works flawlessly with Exchange Sync to what I believe is version 2010
/olme
The issue is with the HTC Sense 3.5 email client. I heard the native ICS email client works.
I have used the built in client in this version of ICS as well as the Sense 3.5 client both with ICS and GB. I have no problems with syncing with a Exchange 2010 server.
On some setups I found the activation screen for the Exchange security flew by quickly after I gave the entry a name..It showed up in the notification tray so I was able to roll down the notification click on the entry and activate it. I suspect if you reboot before activating you might be toast.
If you still are having problems try Touchdown for Smartphones..I found it works very well..in some ways it has better features than the built in client. Worth the 20 bucks.

I should have said I am currently using Megadroid ICS 4.0.3 v 1.4.2
Storage encryption.
Hello,
Mine works. I had to tick the storage encryption.
Beware though.
Enabling encryption on the SD card will WIPE ALL the data on the card without any notice (as far as I remember).
Make a backup of your SD card prior to encrypting.
Should you go back to GB for any reason, you will have to un-encrypt the SD card and that will wipe the card too!
Cheers.

I had an issue with exchange, setup went well to the point to activate securety settings.
it just stopped there and would not activate.
i found out that due to extensive flashing i had used up the max numer of devices on exchange server. Luckely i have my on exchange server so i could reset the device amount.
When this was done the setup went like normal.
Exchange settings don't stick for long
Hi, I too use Exchange on ICS and have had no real issues except this one:
I change the default sync settings from 15mins/1hour to push/manual. Frequently this resets again to the default settings.
Anyone know why this is?
Can I tweak an ini file or is something else causing this?
Hope someone can help as it is becoming quite irritating.
This problem only happens with Hotmail/Live Mail. But you have a point, it's quite annoying. And you can't set it to HTML! This option is greyed out.

Hi, a suggestion for you!
And maybe op and others to try
I also had sync issues with ICS and Sense 3.5/6 and 4, they always reverted back to 15 min, 5kb etc.
But surprise surprise! Baadnewz's Sense 4 beta10 includes a fix for this!!!
I can set options like sync every hour, full message download and they stick!
Even upon reboot
Finally HTC became aware of the issue (and did something about it), maybe it solves issues for op as wel..

How can I use the stock email from ICS instead the one from Sense?
Also working on Badnews Insertcoin v5.1.6 ICS v3.6. Exchange settings stick even after reboot....
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio using xda premium
Exchange Server 2010 (14.01.0339.001)
ARHD 6.5.2 XE, kernel SebastianFM v1.30.2 - 1782 MHz
Default email client works perfectly fine. Push email works, limit set to 5kb by default, format HTML. Settings presist through a reboot. Contacts/mail/tasks/calendar are in sync, no problems.
6.5.2 was installed for the 1-st time. I had stock rom/kernel/radio. So you might want to try perform a super-wipe, flash ROM again and install the latest kernel. Also to help you pinpoint the issue, logs from the gateway and the device would help i guess. Exchange ActiveSync is quite weird sometimes, worce is only RPCoHTTP, heh.
EDIT: Also after preforming a clean install of the system, don't restore anything from backup. Test if it works in default configuration. I ran into a few problems after restoring settings from titanium backup.
Does anyone else have the problem of their Exchange/ActiveSync profile just randomly disappearing? It's happened 4 times now. Driving me crazy. Any advise? I can set it down and pick it up 15 minutes later and the profile is gone!
I'm running a stock/non-rooted GT6800 w/ an AT&T SIM. My exchange server is 2010. Everything works perfectly when the profile is there.
Any advise would be greatly appreciated.
Honestly I wouldn't care, but most of my contacts are in Exchange and when I lose the profile, I have to re-enter some of the contact info in the phone that exchange doesn't save (Ringtone, etc.)
-TheFixer
Same happens to me. I thought I've done something wrong. But obviously it was not me but Samsung...
Don't know how to solve it other than using another Exchange app or wait until Q3 for the ICS update...
I'm running Tweaked Stock ROM V3 and I only sync mail, no contacts or calender and I've never lost any info or had any trouble? I'm connected to SBS2003.
Having the same issue. I've had my Tab 10 days now and during that time my activesync account has disappeared 3 times now. Have no idea yet what's causing it to happen.
I ended up just using the Touchdown app instead of the built in exchange client.

Still happening here. I am still on 3.2. I wonder if fixed on 4.0?
going to ICS fixed that problem for me

I have not had the problem going since going to ICS with exchange. you have lots of choices on which ROM version to install. the instructions on this site are excellent and should be followed to eliminate problems when you upgrade. hope all goes well.
Same issue with mine.
Mine is rooted with stock rom (3.2).
My exchange account stops working after around 2-3 weeks. It tells me it is something to do with a security certificate.
I then have to remove it and re-enter everything again to get it back
Kind of same issue for me under ICS. It sometimes loses all the Exchange information (Contacts, emails, etc...) and then redownloads everything
Needless to say it is costly in battery life and bandwidth use
That seriously pisses me off, since I had similar problems with my Samsung original Tab 7 !!!! Unbelievable they haven't improved since
Only way onmy Tab for me to ahve something working decently was imply to switch to CM...
