I used to have Yahoo.go installed on my WM5 Hermes (HTC TyTn, cingular) for quite some time. I love it, it kept my device in sync with all my yahoo services.
All my phone contacts where saved to my yahoo address book, all my calendar entries where sync with my yahoo calendar, and of course the mail as well. Also every time I took a picture with my phone camera, it will back it up to my yahoo photos, so that even after I deleted the picture from my phone it was still saved on yahoo photos, and I could download it back in to the phone any time I needed it.
I am very upset at the moment because I just superCID my TyTn, so that I could install the newest Cingular Rom in it, witch I did and it worked fine, but when I went to install yahoo go, so that I could have all my contacts, mail, calendar, etc. I find out that yahoo upgraded yahoo Go to 2.0, and that new version has not been released for PPC's yet, only for regular phones.
So, since I don't have outlook, because I always backed up my data and info to yahoo, now I have no way to sync it all back to my phone, so I have to do it manually.
The new yahoo go looks great, I can't wait for the PPC release, but until then, I will have to make do by manually importing all my contacts and calendar entries, and accessing yahoo mail by pop3.
check it out here: http://mobile.yahoo.com/go
My bad....
ok I found the link to yahoo go 1.0 here it is: http://us.rd.yahoo.com/mobile/conne...ad.go.yahoo.com/sm/ygo/win_mobile/ygo_ppc.exe
I just installed it and I am synchronizing my data as we speak.
Looks cool, worth a try...downloading.
Great find!!! However, I get an error message when I try to access stocks, weather and movies...anyone else?
It is working fine for me ... weather/movice/finance/driving directions etc. just link in (by opening up PIE, which is my default browser) to my already set preference on my "my yahoo" page.
I like the email integration --- much easier than trying to view my yahoo mail via webpage (and I never wanted to pay for the service to allow pop email access)
thanks for the link! I didnt know we had a working edition for WM5, it kept telling me no version was available!
I've been using this for quite some time. Makes easy backups of photos. It automatically uploads them to my yahoo Photos.
And backing up my calendar, and contacts is always good.
i have issues (here in the UK) of accessing Yahoo Messenger via Yahoo Go - it loads a blank page and will not take me through to the IM. i tried changing the part of the url from 'uk' to 'us' and got through - anyone else having the same issue?

I've just tried it here, it takes me to a web-based yahoo messenger. It sucks, but works!! I'm using the PPC version on a Wizard BTW.
Yahoo Go! for the PPC has a big memory leak problem.
Its been noticed before on this forum as well as the Cingular HTC forum. The application hogs all available memory (if set up to auto sync every X minutes), and forces a soft reset every other day.
I switched to using the POP3 yahoo account (premium service).

Are you using the one from this link http://us.rd.yahoo.com/mobile/conne...ad.go.yahoo.com/sm/ygo/win_mobile/ygo_ppc.exe
or this one
http://download.go.yahoo.com/sm/ygo/win_mobile/ygo_ppc_wm5.cab
This first is yahoo go v1 and the second link it yahoo go for WM5 for the Moto Q/Palm700w.
Maybe the old version 1 is bad, I havent tried either yet.

Thanks for clarifying, I wont try it now.
I am still using it ... I soft-reset once a day anyway ... it seems to work fine for me (but I am now going to keep an eye on memory to see if I have the leak issue).
Yahoo Go 3.0 Working!
Hi i just download Yahoo Go 3.0 installed to my Himalaya (XDA II) with WM 6.5, its working guys! and touch screen too!
Looks like gmail have fixed their IMAP problem.
All messages HTML included are now coming through will complete bodies.
Holy crap, macguffin! I'll try it out now too! Thanks for the update -- I'll post one when I find out.
Haha, you know, I didn't even know there was a problem with it, but I did just set up Gmail through IMAP on my phone a couple of days ago and have been getting blank emails. Sometime last night though the emails started coming through properly, so I guess that's what you're talking about, so yeah, I can confirm that it works now.
Wow that took them a long time to fix, but yay! Good news. Thanks for the heads up, I gave up checking on it a month ago.
Wow.. it is a very good news. I can start using the default mail client to check Google Email and as well as check my work email as well.
FYI...
This is working on my Treo700 now...
I did have to delete my account information and re-download. But after that! It worked fine!
Ditto.
I deleted my account settings from my kaiser or vodafone v1615 and then set the system up again so it downloaded a weeks emails and it all works fine.
Thanks Googlemail.
I'm gonna try it for a few days before posting it works... So you'll hear from me again.
Confirmed. It works!
I've been forwarding my email to a hotmail account to get push for awhile now since gmail wasnt working, I think I'm going to just keep doing that.
wow, it actually works. took me a week to figure out what alternative to use instead of my gmail, now a few weeks later they actually fix it, took long enough.. how long was this not working for, a year or so? lol
this the best thing since christmas lol btw also confirm this
I have only had my kaiser for a month so it has not bothered me a lot but now it works it will save on my data costs as i was using 2 devices for my email.
At the moment Flexmail is running, so please could anyone of you check this:
I want to have the last week's mail on my device. Can I do this with the built-in messaging application?
Syncing the whole inbox would be too much on my device and deleting every old mail manually is annoying.

There is an option in the email account's settings to download anything from today's message to last 3/5/7/30 days worth or even all messages.
Also IMAP will keep everything synchronised.
Is that what you meant?
Yes, thanks. That is the feature I meant.
But now i see, that windows mobile's messaging application has no imap idle support.
So, I will continue using Flexmail. It is not that comfortable, but I can adjust the location of saved mails and it has imap idle.
Imap idle is MUCH more flexible than direct push over exchange

Seemed it's fixed indeed.
Yey! Good news... shame ther is no folder mapping in pocket outlook though. Plus i would want it to not upload sent items as then you would end up getting copies!
first if id like to say, sorry if the title is misleading
second, im still trying to figure out how to get true directpush gmail on the HD, ive been using wm for 4 years now....but since ive gotten the HD is when the push gmail is really starting to bother me, i mean yes, i can use owa to get my gmail, but its either manual sync, or interval sync. which is not true push mail. ive been able to use my hotmail account for push mail, obviously MS designed it this way that you can use it.
but still cannot find a way through owa or standalone wm to get push gmail
other thoughts here are;
-hotmail is capable of this obviously their parent company created the technology
-blackberry is capable of this because they have their BES server
-third party apps blow, so its not a true solution, i would perfer to have my emails between sender and me, rather than being filtered through by some third party app/company
if anyone has any kind of input or say, please feel free...
no one has a solution?
ive seen that there a lot of people looking at this thread, people have come across this im sure problem/topic, but no one has found a solution to the gmail push?!!

I had the same problem but "solved" it with HD Tweak. Ok solved is the false word for it but it works now.
So what I did is:
1. Start HD Tweak of course
2. Go to point 6.1 (Disconnect After)
3. I set it to 1 Minute or 2 Minutes
4. Save this with OK
After that my gmail works perfect when it always have to connect for a new time to the internet! If you are connected to the internet it won´t work! Crazy but ok what should I do
First I didn´t wanted to use this "disconnect after" option to get my gmail workin. I only wanted to safe battery energy but than I saw that with this disconnecting after 1Minute (on my HD) my gmail is working and syncing all mails correctly to my Touch HD.
Please tell me if it also works on your HD!
Sorry for my bad english

Sorry wrong answer on your question.....I thougt you have a problem syncing with gmail^^
But your question would be also interesting to me if there is a possibility to have pushmail with gmail.
Im also really interested. I have mine set to sync every hour which is ok but as mentioned, not pushmail at all. In fact it is barbarically pullmail.
I hope this will solve the problem.
WINDOWS LIVE (in your Start-programs-windows live)
1. make account in windows live / hotmail
2. at windows live menu - option, find Sync Schedule
3. choose, from Sync Frequency: as items arrive.
It means, as an email arrive in [email protected]., it will push to your handheld.
Carefull with the battery.
Sorry for my English.

yes im sure everyone knows how to get push hotmail, but thats not the problem, we are looking to get push GMAIL. but thanks for that great tutorial! and the battery isnt a problem. mine still has a good charge with hotmail being pushed, when the phone is in standby it doesnt use that much juice, even when data connection is on, its in a less consuming state

well i mean i have gmail set up as imap on my hd but its still pullmail, i set it to manually sync, right now i have all my gmail forwarded to my hotmail, i get pushmail from that so, if i do get an email from my gmail account ill know and i can just hit sync on gmail, and reply if i need to, if i dont need to reply its just to read it then. but its not a solution just a temporary fix? waiting on google to release a gmail sync!
Funambol
Try funambol. It's open source and is getting to be a very popular push email solution.
Hi, I tried using the funambol which seems like a good application.However I couldnt get the messages by push.If I manually do 'sync all' I get the messages but not as push mail as and when they arrive.My 3g connection is on and funambol client is also running.Any idea what I am missung.

im a bit hesitant about trying out the program, doesnt sound worth it, i could be wrong. but googled it a bit and found this
http://blogs.techrepublic.com.com/networking/?p=160
the article is a bit dated, but still. skimmed through it and i think it says all funambol basically sends you a sms? and tells you that you have new mail which means manually having to hit "send/receive" i may be wrong, i didnt read the entirety of the article
but in my opinion still not a true solution, im so eager for google to release a gmail sync, dont let me down google....! waiting for you to release a break through tech for wm users!!

No I waiited for some time and see that it does work but takes 5-10 min to get the mail.You dont have to mnaually do the send/receive.
Hi,
I was also interested in push mail solution for WM and Touch Hd and this is what I found:
http://www.emoze.com/
I downloaded version for htc/other device and installed cab on mobile. After creating an account for gmail, it automaticly created account in outlook. Mails seems to be pushed into my mobile maybe 1 minute after they arrive to gmails inbox, so it sounds like a fair solution. Pls someone check that because it seems too good to be true. Maybe I'm missing something but it seems to be a real push mail solution for gmail and wm. And its free.

I just tested Emoze, and I'm REALLY impressed!
The setup is fast, and easy!
In the settings menu, I get my own language, despite the software being downloaded in English!
Receipt of testmail on my HD after 4 minutes.
Receipt of reply on my Lotus Notes after 30 seconds(!!!).
This is it! I'm not looking any longer
Another alternative is Seven. I've been using it for over a year now and prefer it to emoze. It's still in beta but works great.
well does seven emoze and funambol all enable you to reply with the gmail account name? and its all a separate application correct?
in a way my temporary fix is working for me, pain in the ass but working.....i just prefer not to have a 3rd party program "filter" through my emails, private or not.....
but has anyone received any word on whether googles releasing a gmail sync?

Seven integrates with outlook and runs in the background to deliver emails. When you want to read/reply you use outlook. Any replies sent are from the email address you set up.

Same thing with Emoze.
Okay, my first thoughts on the Hero.
Good
------
Hardware is lovely. The unit feels just right in the hand, and graphite colour is great.
Screen is very sharp and has excellent colour.
Sense UI is a huge improvement over stock Android is virtually every way.
HTC E-Mail client is great compared to standard cupcake version.
Browser is very fast, and text wrapping is very effective.
Phone is now unlocked and running on Vodafone (thanks to the folks at unlock-now.com). It detects this, and offers to update all my settings accordingly. Nice.
Bad
----
HTC Smart Dialer doesn't correctly display contacts that only have a company name in them. The numbers show up but with 'unknown' next to them. They display properly in the 'People' application, so it's definitely a HTC bug (I seem to remember the same problem with early versions of this dialer on WM).
GMail client won't let me set a 'reply-to' field. I use GMail for all my e-mail, but use a forwarding service (pobox.com) so want to set my reply to field accordingly. I can get the functionality by using the HTC e-mail client, but then I lose HTML mail capability.
GMail and HTC Mail don't integrate in the mail widget. You can only see accounts configured using HTC Mail.
Flash in browser is very hit and miss. Some simply stuff works, but not much.
Standard calendar application is rubbish. The iPhone is way better here. I guess I'll be looking for a third party alternative.
I'll post more as I discover it.
Bagpuss.
Cool, thanks for the quick update.
When you say the standard calendar is rubbish, can you elaberate more on this? I use the calendar quite a bit and was hoping there would be a widget to show tasks/appointments on my home screen.
Any chance of a video going round the calendar or a good detailed explanation of it?
Sorry to ask again, but the reviews say that the phone WILL sync directly with Outlook (not just exchange) and I have ordered one on that understanding. Could you confirm this for me, please? Ta...

Sorry, don't know about this as I don't use Windows or Outlook.
From what I understand, you can sync with Outlook, but you need to use the HTC Sync software. The only problem is that HTC haven't yet made the Hero version available for download. If you go to their support site, they don't have a section for the Hero yet. I'm guessing this will change once the phone is officially released SIM free.

The main problem is that you can't get a month view, and be able to move across days to see what they actually contain. On my E71, you see the month calendar on the left, and a small pane on the right which changes to show the events for each day. On the iPhone, you get something similar, but see the details at the bottom of the screen. On the Hero, you get a full screen month display, but have to click on individual days to see the detail. Not a big thing for some, but it's a change to what I like.
You can go to what they call 'Agenda' view which gives you a long list of all upcoming appointments, but you can't get a week view. There is a day view, however.
There is a calendar widget, and it does show today and tomorrow details, but it's very small.
Hope that helps,
Bagpuss.

Thanks for the quick little review!
Just a quick couple of questions:
- Im not believing the battery life some have stated as the phone seems to be fully working round the clock
- Can the handset be rotated the other landscape way? So that the trackball is on the left side?

That's exactly were I got it unlocked. They were incredibly fast. I had my unlock code within about 10 minutes of ordering.
Simply insert your foreign SIM, it will prompt you for the unlock code. Enter the code from unlock-now.com, and it all works.

Not sure on the battery life at the moment, as I've not had it long enough to tell.
Sadly, you can't rotate it so the trackball is on the left. It's only a software thing, though, so HTC might implement it in future.

Hi Bagpuss,
I have a question. I have two different gmail addresses that I normally use. Is it possible to have the two accounts setup in the phone? Basically I want to know how it handles two e-mail accounts and two google calendar accounts.
Thanks mate.

yes the sync software for the orange phone is on the micro sd card provided you plug it in go to mass storage mode and then run the .exe I have syncned all my contacts and calendar , unfortunatly you cannot sync any other outlook items this way currently

you set up the reply to address on the Gmail website.
It's in Settings > accounts, and it sends as whatever you have the default email address set to in the 'send mail as' section.

No, you can not be signed in to two Gmail accounts at once. you can set up a second Gmail account in the mail application to access your mail from the second account, but i don't know any way to access calendars from a second account unless you can share calendars between accounts. maybe that will work?
How is the screen outdoors?

Thanks, I think that will do. I can sign in with one of the Gmail accounts and set the other one in the mail application. Regarding the calendars I just noticed that all my google calendars are only in one of the accounts. So I will sign in on the phone with that one and use the other only in the mail application.
The only problem will be moving all my contacts from one account to the other...

Just got mine as well,
I noticed that there was considerable amount of lag for the first hour of using it, but now all the lag is gone and its working amazingly well.
HTC have taken a lot of the ideas from this site and implemented it in the sense ui, Customising the phone is fun and really easy, the only thing I'm unhappy with is being unable to get my Hotmail, and I don't really want it forwarded to my gmail.

Correct me if wrong, but you can always create a new dummy gmail account, forward your mail to that, and set in the gmail website that your 'identity mail address' (from address AND reply-to) is your hotmail address.
that way other people will not notice you use gmail to retrieve it (unless they look in the headers). Thing is you can't manage your hotmail account that way (delete / move / mark as read your mail)

Funnily I got hotmail working through the standard email app, it doesn't push the email but you can set the frequency at which it syncs, so it's good enough.
Also while using the hero i'v noticed that some times the phone doesn't respond after unlocking and it takes a couple of seconds to respond to your touch.
got mine this morning
only just got home to play with it.....
must say it really "feels"like a nice phone....time to play now
hi all to the lucky owners
reading mobile-review and engadget review they say about slowness and sluggyness and lag and devilsh ****ness
is it becouse they have some prototipe sample or do you confirm all this lag and slowness ?
thanks guys
Hi
I got a problem...
I have a two weeks old HD2 and i have done full reset 5 times allready.
First it works well but after awhile it starts slowing down till it doesent react almost to anything. Even making a phonecall is impossible. And at that point there is nothing to do but full reset.
There is no other software installed.
I have Outlook and Gmail configured and in use.
I have recent rom.
Have someone else experienced the same?
Thanks.

ROM version?
Any tweaks?
Any restored sms/mms/calls history?
sd card with/with out?
hotfixes?
I took my phone and had it repaired by local htc service. All they did was an update to rom. That was the same i allready had (1.48...).
As earlier said i have two email accounts in use. Outlook works well. I think there is something with Gmail account. I have something like 2600 emails in that account. After i configure Gmail account it seems that phone just hangs after awhile. After deleting this account phone works as it should.
How could that be? There should be enough resources within phone.

Can you tell us how many phones come with more memory? Of course, where one installs programs can eat up memory, as well as the size of the ROM, cache, etc. But, still, what phone are you using with more memory or what phones are presently being sold on the market that come with more ROM and RAM? (I am wondering if your knowledge of products presently on the mobile market is equal to your rather lame and misleading sarcasm.)
Your post was certainly not helpful in terms of helping the OP solve his problem.

Did you download all 2600 emails from Gmail plus how many you have in Outlook into your HD2? Seems that if you did, that would be enough to bog down the speed of any phone and clog up the works enough that resets would be necessary. Check and see how much memory your emails are taking up. You might be surprised.
Why not just use the option to only download the last 3 days of your Gmail? Is there any reason you need to store all your Gmails on your phone?
