Guys,
"messages cannot be downloaded to your mobile device. Make sure you are connected and that your e-mail account settings are correct. Then, try to download messages again."
That is the error.
This is something that just started happening. I have been using pocket Outlook on this phone to download my Gmail email for some time through GPRS and Wifi with no problems. Now this error starts up.
The thing is that I still get the messages. The messages come through in pocket outlook but this error still comes up. Weird and annoying.
So I CAN download the mail but it looks like the phone thinks I can't. If anyone can help me get rid of this error I would appreciate it.
Thanks.
I'm getting this error as well. When I first got it, I just deleted my gmail account out of Pocket Outlook and then just added a new account and it would work fine for a while. Then, after a few days, I would get this same error again.
I would still be able to receive email but I am unable to send. My emails sit in the Outbox and will not send. Then during the next send/receive, it will redownload all of my emails and still not send any mail and this message will again pop up.
I flashed my ROM with the official T Mobile ROM and this occured again. I just flashed with Molski's ROM last night, now this **** is happening again. I have googled, I have searched this forum...nothing!!
Anybody know what the hell is going on?
bump...
c'mon...I know somebody's gotta know this one...

I have setup my Gmail account to download all the mail from the last 7 days but nothing happens. When I change to download every mail it works, but as soon I choose 30 days or 7 days nothing.
I have just installed Duttys latest ROM
Is there anyone who know anything about this problem?
Same problem, also using dutty's latest rom and unable to download mail of the past * days.
Thank you by the way, at least now I can see my mail by downloading everything as opposed to having to navigate to gmail using the browser
Downloading everything takes some time though (985 mails worth of time)
Exact same problem, also doesn't list google folders for some reason. Anyone know why this is? Or recommend a free email app to use, gmail one doesn't load for me?

Nope didnt work for me! I've tried loads of different things now, even a nother gmail account and it just does not want to download any emails!! like i said, this just happened totally out of the blue with no settings changed in gmail or on my phone...phone was recieving emails fine up until the other day! this is so frustrating! someone please help!!
any1?
can anyone help??...i done a search on the forum and its come up with some suggestions but none of them seem to work...I cant even access anyr other email accounts either, its not just gmail, ive tried yahoo mail 2...it logs on, recieves both folders and headers but not the messages, then it just disconnects...no error messages, it just looks like I have not recieved any mail even tho I have..none of them are cummin through on my phone!! sum1 must have a cure, surely??
When I first started using this, I was always getting offline messages the next time I logged into yahoo. Now, for about the past 2 weeks, I no longer get any offline messages. I log in, there is nothing, and I never get the messages. I am running completely stock. About the only thing that changed it I started using the email features, with both a gmail and a yahoo account. I deleted those, and still not getting offline messages. The rest of IM seems to work fine, just miss anything that happens when I'm not logged in. Any ideas what could have made this stop happening, and how to fix this?
Doesn't anyone have any ideas?
no ideas. but I have the same issue. it was working up until Apr 29th/30th.
My HD2 somehow today downloaded all my messages from my Yahoo account, all 7000+ messages from several years! Does anyone know:
(1) How to delete all these messages from HD2? One by one takes too long!
(2) How to prevent HD2 from downloading all the messages again? I checked my email setting. It sets to only download the past 3 days message. I have no idea how it can even download several years messages. I thought my HD2 experienced the sleep of death.
Thank you!

go into your inbox by going to your mail tab and click all messages. once there click menu and go to tools and there should be something that says clear "your account name" mine happens to be gmail. It will delete all your messages off your phone but not from the server( Yahoo) now for the second part I have not figured a way, sounds like you need to startt deleting some junk mail or make a new account
You might want to try moving all your older messages online to a separate folder..."archived" or something similar...which should keep them from being DL'd to your phone again.
Hi guys
I have a HD2 with the Stock ROM 1.66, all working fine until recently, where both my Gmail accounts are blank, every folder is empty, Send/Receive runs, Connecting > Logging on > looking for Changes > Updating Folders > Disconnecting.
No email is downloaded, Ive tried removing accounts and re-adding, checking the deletion and day threshold settings, and its still not download any at all.
The only thing ive done recently is installed SPB keyboard which ive removed, and the Excalibur Android Loader app, which is also now removed. I also changed a registry setting under HTC Album to ignore the .thumbnails folder, but nothing else.
Help!!
My Outlook sync probably works fine, but because i dont have a valid SSL cert on exchange yet, i cant test with that.
Thanks
Does your email account work fine via webmail?
works fine via webmail.
Okay ive found the problem after hours of investigation, the date was set to 2011 for some reason, so it was connecting and seeing no emails for that date!!!
Thanks

I'm having the same issue. It checks email and comes back with the current time as the refresh time, but doesn't show any new emails. I have found a trick that if I go into the settings for that mail account and just click through them without changing anything, it will receive the current mail. Unfortunately I have to do that every time I want mail from that IMAP email. The unfortunate side effect is that it also resets default settings for emial size and frequency.
Where was the date field that you are talking about above?
I just went to my phone's date/time setting and it was set to automatic from server. I toggled it to manual and back to automatic. Now it's receiving emails again. That may have fixed it. I'm a little skeptical as I have done little things here and there which will may it update and retrieve email once, but it never seems to work on its own without my tinkering with it. We'll see. If it is still working tomorrow, I'll report back here to let everyone know.
So I tried it again this morning and it isn't working again. So that wasn't it. Also, one correction to my last post ... my IMAP isn't empty it just won't receive new mail. I hit refresh and the sync symbol spins and then shows the current time as if refreshed but no new email pop in. It also does this so fast that it cannot possibly be logging in and checking before it returns with no mail. Still frustrated. Let me know if anyone figures this out.
PS - as additional info, I own my own domain and email hosting through Rackspace. Since my wife has the same setup (Domain and sakes rackspace account) I added her email to my phone and it works fine (tried over several days). So now I'm really baffled.
Solved! Android 2.2 stopped receiving emails (T-Mobile)
Solved! Android 2.2 stopped receiving emails (T-Mobile)
Ok, I have spent countless hours researching and troubleshooting this and I think I have the solution. Apparently, Android's native email software has difficulty with certain things, "Flagged" emails being one of them. I.E. those emails you flag different colors to follow up on later.
I have tried everything I could find on the issue and this seems to be what worked for me.
Background (Just in case this helps you):
Phone: T-Mobile HTC HD2 running Android 2.2 NAND
Issue: Email worked fine on multiple accounts for over a year on this phone, then one day one of my personal IMAP account stopped receiving emails. Gmail and my Exchange accounts still worked fine. However, my IMAP account would say it is "Syncing/Refreshing Messages" and come back with the current time stamp, but would not pull in any of the new messages. My only work around until now was to run through the email account setup for Incoming mail server, Outgoing (SMTP) mail server, etc. Then it would work, but only once. If I wanted my new mail again, I would have to repeat that process. About a day or so before I began having issues, I had flagged several emails for future follow-up. I read a post that mentioned that in passing so I tried it. I went into Outlook and unfledged all the emails I had flagged.
Solution: Un-flag all emails in your INBOX. Then wait 4-12 hours.
NOTE! At first it didn't work, but after a few hours I started getting my emails and have been getting everything fine since (last 48hours). I guess it takes time to propagate in the system or something.
I hope this helps!
Hi
I've moved over from Winmo and I really like sgs but recently I've started having issuses with my emails. To cut a long story short, I had a problem with my handset which Vodafone kindly replaced with froyo 2.2 (previous handset had 2.1) and since then I've had problems with receiving email messages. The sgs is configured to connect to my work Exchange 2007 server and is set to check automatically (push) for new emails. I can go for about a day without receiving anything but yet my mailbox has new emails! I've tried different networks - I brought the phone unlocked, restarting, ending task ....... list goes on!
any ideas what I should do? I do sometimes see the error "connection error" in yellow at the top of the email app screen but it then disappears and start refreshing, again sometimes this does the trick and other times nothing happens.
please help!

If is set to check is set to check and that means that your server is not PUSHING email and on top of that your server doesn't allow SGS to check.
I have a Winmo phone configured as I can't rely on the SGS and that works 100% configured the same way!
I've also tried removing the account and re-creating which hasn't helped.
Could it be the phone itself? only 2 things have changed since it last worked, the hardware and the system software. We have other users using Android and its working fine for them
confused!
The stock samsung email is [email protected] Try K9 email from the market or try deleting your email accounts from the samsung app and use the 'Social Hub' app (also a stock Galaxy app made by Samsung) to add an exchange account as a 'push' type and see if that works.
How do I add the Exchange account to the Social Hub? Just try it now and all I see is my SMS messages but no option to Add an account, the menu button does nothing.
I will try K9 in the meantime
thanks
K9 have removed the Android version from their download site! any other ideas?

thanks mate but I'm sure our Exchange 2010 server doesn't support webdav. A note aside I think I know why the stock email client is not working correctly. What I have noticed is that when it does try and check for emails at the scheduled times, if for any reason it can't connect it stops and then doesn't re-try at the next interval, when I do a manual refresh I see all the "connection Error" messages popup at the top of the screen and once they have dissappeared, only then does it start receiving messages again.
any ideas?
