[Q] Configuring Microsoft Exchange in Android - General Questions and Answers

Hello everyone, I bought the Nexus 5 yesterday and I was trying to configure my office email in the phone. I used the same settings as in Outlook in my laptop but I don't know where to enter some of the settings which I believe is required for the mail application to work.
In the Email app I have entered the Username, Password and Server. The value of Port was 443 and the security type SSL/TLS.
My Outlook is also connected by SSL but there are a couple of other settings which I don't know where to enter in Android. The settings are shown in the pic attached. Please help me out with this issue.

Yes I did, but it doesn't work. I think I need to enter the Exchange proxy settings somewhere. But where is the question.

maybe you could try some play store apps I think there are plenty of them

Maybe this will work with SandroProxy, app tab where you can redirect traffic just for one app and transparent proxy.

Help setting up yahoo on TC

Just got my TC tonight and I cant put it down. I LOVE this device. Ive never had a WM phone before but have played with them without any desire to own one. Well I really like how much can be optimized and configured, and thats not even considering all the tweaks found here.
Anyway, my current issue is that I cant get my yahoo email to work. Now, it could be that Im coming from a Blackberry Curve so my phone package is the blackberry BIS. Would this inhibit me getting my email? If so, do I have to call up ATT tomorrow and get set up on the smartphone program instead?
The POP/IMAP email access requires a normal dataplan... After that the device can configure itself for the mail access (after you enter you email adrdess in the new account creation). But if you want better useability, and more security than you should configure it manually whith IMAP access... if Yahoo! supports it...

yahoo/gmail issues
I am having a weird problem. When connected over wifi, yahoo and google connect and download mail like you'd expect.
When connected to 3G or Gprs network google and yahoo fail to connect. The phone tries to make another connection, like it does not know there is already a data connection.
I know my data connection is good at 3G, because I surf the web all day...
Any ideas will be appreciated. Thanks.
Figured it out...
Had to uncheck the "use proxy" setting on the connection profile under "proxy"

Let me make this more clear for you.... I recently downloaded the palringo app....that comes from palringo....I got a message from my server that says an ip address in the UK has been searching through my accounts. So I tracked them down, and it went straight to palringo. The application stole my account info
@nikko1000
Actually your explanation isn't very clear.

- ok maybe you don't get this...
1. I downloaded palringo on my android phone
2. I got a message saying that i can't log in on the app
3. I went online, and i got a message from my email, saying that there is suspicious activity on several accounts, coming from 1 ip address
4. I looked up the IP address, it went straight to palringo
5. I posted this up, and complained multiple times, and looked up other people having the same problem.

So what happens when you try to log into palringo via there desktop app?
You said you were able to check your email - so does this mean your IM accounts that palringo uses are still working?
You didn't answer most of my questions, but nevermind...
Why is it so weird and suspicious to you, that there were connections from Palringo IP, if this is exactly what Palringo should do?

you're still not getting this - they showed that they logged in with their ip address, and changed information on mine, without permission, obviously meaning that they logged in, with the info that was given to them
they showed obvious proof that they were trying to change my password, so i had to recover it through my cellphone

Yeah, but this is how Palringo works - it connects to services from Palringo servers. So if e.g. someone guessed your Palringo password, then he got access to all your connected accounts and all connections were from Palringo IP.
I mean: that may not be a guy from Palringo, but anyone who got access to your Palringo account.
this is not a random person, my password is practically un-guessable.... its a 20 letter code.... example : XAO352Fs3934HOe93kdj..... and who would have access to my account? i don't share my password, or my cellphone

1. WHICH Account? Do you mean just your palringo account, or all the IM accounts you are using with it?
Here is my guess of what's happened.
You installed Palringo on your Android device, started up and everything looks normal.
Now ONE (or maybe more?) or your IM accounts is indicating there was some weird activity.
You went to whatever IM account and noticed a bunch of connections from the palringo servers. (This is OK and actually not a problem - as that's how the palringo service works)
Thus - your handheld is probably logging you out and logging you in again over and over - which causes your IM service to think there is a problem when there is not. Either your 3G is going off or your wifi is going off - prolly when you put your phone in standby.

Good question. It *does* sound like you hacked somehow - but I seriously doubt that anyone at palringo had anything to do with it.
Either someone got your palringo username/password and then changed your passwords to gmail and facebook via that (if you even can) - or you were hacked some other way.
I would take a close look at your home computer (or any other machines you've used lately) and make sure you have no virus / trogans / mailware etc on those because odds are that's actually where the hack happened.
Have you had any luck recovering your facebook and gmail accounts? What a bummer I know how bad that sucks.
So, IP addresses usually point to ISP s... How did you track and identify this organization or individual?

[FIX] Yahoo Mail sign in errors on stock app?

I don't know how many of you guys use Yahoo Mail but here lately, there have been tons of people having issues with the stock email app constantly wanting you to re-enter your password. Well I found a fix around this and wanted to share it with everyone.
First of all, I have no idea why the stock app is having issues so please don't ask. I only know a way to stop the problem.
1. Remove your account from the stock email app
2. Exit out of the app and go back into it to setup a new account
3. Select "Others" instead of Yahoo Mail.
4. Type in your email address and password but DO NOT press "Next"
5. Press "Manual Setup"
6. Select "IMAP Account"
7. Under "Incoming Server Settings" set the IMAP Server as "imap.mail.yahoo.com"
8. Set the Port to "993"
9. Set Security Type to "SSL (Accept All Certificates)"
10. Make sure the Outgoing Server Settings look like this:
SMTP Server: smtp.mail.yahoo.com
Port: 465
Security Type: SSL (Accept All Certificates)
Make sure both boxes are checked at the bottom: Require Sign-In and Use Verizon email gateway.
11. Click "Next" and it will set everything up. Click "Next" again to give your account a name and enter your name.
That's it, you're good to go and shouldn't get anymore password requests. If you do, then I have no idea what to tell you.
Please pass this info along because I know a lot of people from other devices are having issues with this as well!

So far my Yahoo seems stable, haven't gotten the sign-in error in a while, so I kind of don't want to touch it - one of those "if it ain't broke, don't break it" kind of things.
But as soon as it starts acting up again, I will do this exactly & report back.
Thanks for the tip
You sir, are a good man.
Worked like a charm. Three days and running.
I was about to abandon Yahoo altogether.

Z3 and Sctivesync with Office 365

Hi all
Has anyone successfully configured their Z3 to use an activesync account with Microsoft's Office 365 Exchange servers? I have done this easily with many other phones but on the Sony I am getting 'Bad User, Passord or Certificate' at all times. I have verified the account is OK by setting it up on a different phone.
TIA
Yes, been using it since day 1. Basically, set username as domain.com\[email protected], server as outlook.office365.com, and check "use secure connection" only, using port 443. Mail app will then prompt you to install exchange services. After that, all will be fine.

Many thanks. It is good to know that someone has this working. I shall try again later today. I would swear I've tried it this way but I've never been prompted to install Exchange Services. Just to be sure, you are doing this from Settings - accounts - Exchange Active sync. Is that correct?
Nope, did it from the e-mail app. If you are doing the settings within the company, everything should be automatic, but I have also successfully setup at home with the above settings. Enjoy
Mine also works. Same settings as post #3. And i set it from settings -> accounts

I have never managed to do access from the client windows with a google account. not happened to anyone?
I had trouble with getting signup using Google on the web to go past the "ACCEPT" page of permissions. Then all of a sudden it did today. But I never have gotten a verification email and I don't know what password to use and so I try to sign into desktop client with Google password and it fails. So tell it that I've forgot password and I never get the reset email. Try to sign up using standard email and use the google account and it says that email is already in use. Then try forgot password and still nothing. So I set it up to my Facebook account and it had the accept permissions page and then asked me to make a password. So that's working just fine and I can log into the pc client using the facebook email and the new password I created.
I had the same problem and I solve it by restarting my phone.
