Hello...
After putting a new ROM on my phone...I'm having a weird issue. First off, I've double and triple checked my settings and they match what gmail requires and how it was set before the new ROM. secondly, all other data services (weather updates, web browsing, phone class, SMS, etc.) are working perfectly.
But if I try to send an email or manually send/receive, my phone pops out a message from my data connection that says "cannot connect: cannot connect with current connection settings. to change your connection settings, tap settings." and then provides a settings link and dismiss button. The rom used the auto config for ATT which seems to have gotten everything else working as expected, but I simply cannot send / receive email.
If i login to gmail directly from opera, everything works fine - but i cannot receive updates right away - slightly annoying.
Where it gets even weirder is the gmail java app will not download or send messages either.
Does anyone have any idea what may be wrong? Would this be a rom specific issue - or is a configuration for my phone wrong?
Thanks in advance everyone
hate to bump...but just curious if anyone else has experienced anything like this.
thanks.
I'm assuming when you typed in your Gmail address, Windows stated it found the setting and configured everything for you. The problem is Windows configures your Internet connection to be "The Internet". Deep inside the Gmail settings their is an option to change this to "MEdia Net". This may be your problem.
Go to MENU, then TOOLS, then OPTIONS, then click on GMAIL. Then click on EDIT ACCOUNT SETUP, then NEXT 4X, then ADVANCED SERVER SETTINGS. Then change THE INTERNET to MEDIANET. Then some more dones, and nexts, and finish. Hopefully this is the problem for you.
I've had similar problems and got to the point where I suspect it is something to do with ActiveSync.
I could receive emails, but not send emails, unless I deleted my account and reset it up again (not ideal). I started to realise this happened after I had connected via USB to certain connections, i.e. not a charger and not a computer, for example a USB car charger. In these situations the message would pop up asking me what I wanted to connect as: ActiveSync, External Harddrive or whatever the other option is.
It seems to me like the phone wasn't getting the right message and was then getting itself very much confused.
Deleting the account and resetting it up helped. Eventually (last weekend) I have Hard reset.
I'm also careful about which USB connections I now use.
Don't know if this provides some insight or use?
UPDATE: THis just happened to me again and I should point out that I don't use gmail, it's my own domain mail hosted by EasySpace. I suspect the problem is HTC Touch Pro though. I have been listening to music on my Touch Pro with a USB multi connector (3.5mm + power + other USB) connected. Wrote an email and it wouldn't send. Disconnected the cable, still wouldn't send, stopped all running apps (Messenger, ActiveSyn, Windows Media), restarted Messenger and did a send receive. This time it worked.
For me this is definitely a dodgy ActiveSync issue.
Additional gmail problems
I've also had email problems using GMail. I originally set up my gmail account as a pop account (I have my own domain forwarded there) and wanted it to reflect my address as my domain. It originally connected and started downloading the emails. Then the account vanished! The emails are still there and taking up the first account slot in my TF3D, but when I go to accounts it is not listed. After a hard reset I restored with PPM backup and it placed the emails back in there, but still no account listed. I also can't open the emails, I just see the envelope icon with the preview of the last message downloaded. I've since added gmail as IMAP, but also had trouble with that in not being able to send emails. I deleted the account and then added again (IMAP) to try and by-pass the auto setup the phone does for GMail, but still no luck. What's worse, it's added this addition to the 3rd little envelope icon in TF3D, so now I have 1. Non-functioning account 2. Empty 3. Current IMAP
Anyone know where this data is stored so I can at least go clear out the first 2 slots so the current account being used will be the first one in the list? Also, anyone figure out the fix for sending emails? I'll try the advanced setting change from The Internet to MediaNet and see if that works. It's rather pointless having the emailing picture phone that you can't email pictures from!
Changed 'The Internet' to MediaNet, still no go on the sending.
Hi All,
I use an XDA Orbit, running WM6.
I have recently added some POP3 email addresses (Not MSexchange ) they work fine and download ok etc..
My only problem is that the phone doesnt seem to `wake-up` from standby mode when a new email comes in.
Like, When I get a new SMS, the phone wakes up from standby/sleep mode, so then i can see the bubble on the screen. I dont get this with email, but i
do get the audio?
Is there a registry setting or something im missing to get the phone to wake
up and activate when i get a new email notificaton?
Thanks
there is problems in social hub and i do not know why the deveopers did not fix it in samsung galaxy sii GT-I9100

1- push email service : its sometimes do not work or i can say it stop working for while (may be hours) till i disconnect the internet and back to connect it again so i discoverd this problem by found emails on my yahoo when i signed on from my computer and when i try to refresh the email from phone that it show me this message (connection lost with yahoo server and it will restore automatically but if the problem persist so you should contact yahoo server).

Whenever i start using MSN chat or Facebook chat on the messaging hub using wifi, i will only be receiving chat messages for the first 5 minutes. After that, no more messages come through.
I know my wifi is on because its connected to the power supply, even if i set the locked screen to never, i can never get a constant flow of chat messages after a few minutes. The only way to start receiving again is by switching off/on wifi...
I know im not receiving anymore messages because i have my computer MSN logged in (and it is receiving messages still but no on phone side)
I know im connected to the internet still when i stopped receiving messages (because i go into IE to see if it still works)
...SO WTF??????
(ps. i seem to be getting the same trouble with 3G as well)
