Slow e-mail download - Touch GSM General

Hi all
I recently (last night ) converted from pop3 to imap. Everything seems to work perfectly, except that when I "download" with my Touch, it takes forever and I set it to only download the headers. I did notice with the pop3 set-up that it was also a bit slower than my laptop, but never thought anything of it.
Any ideas?
Peace.

push gmail problems?

Hi!
I was trying to use push gmail but I only got an error
0x8600050c
I can sync contacts and calendar, but no emails, if I check the email, then i got that error.
Someone else is in the same situation?
Same error here... Anyone got solutions?
I've reset the phone, input the settings multiple times (I'm sure they're correct), checked that my carriers default internet access isn't set via proxy, turned off/on POP on my Gmail settings....
A couple of pointers to look out for:
-You want to make sure you're only trying to sync Calendar, Contacts & Email. DON'T try and sync Tasks or Texts cos they don't work (yet hopefully).
-Make sure the username you're using is <myname>@gmail.com not @googlemail.com like the tutorial used to say.
-If it stops syncing after a few weeks of use. Sometimes you just have to do a manual sync by going into connection manager and hitting the Sync button and sometimes the only way to solve it seems to be just delete the whole Exchange profile for googlesync and set it up again from scratch.
Hope one of these is going to solve your problem cos I'm all out of ideas. Works fine on my WinMo6.5 device.
Yup, I was aware of both the @gmail and restriction to Cal/Contacts/Email, neither of those are my problem.
Mine is syncing using @googlemail.com but it does not work when doing send/receive for my folders which is annoying as I don't want to keep on syncing hundred's of folders each time I get a new mail.
also youc ant have a "/" in any of your gmail labels (which are often autmoatically created when you imap your gmail on your desktop i.e. Inbox/ebay Inbox/work etc
Same problem here...
I have the same problem and the same error code.
Tried to sync my phone for the first time yesterday and spent the better part of the night troubleshooting why I was getting the 0x8600050c error code... Tried all the possible fixes including making sure Tasks are deselected, Syncing only Contacts & Calendar, no '/'s in labels etc....
However, now I realise that after browsing the google help forums that a lot of people seem to be having this problem in the last 24-32 hours. Quite a few recent messages have been posted on this.
It seems like Google Sync push has been erratic ever since it was released. They fixed the problems in the middle, but it seems that they are back now. You would hope that a firm with the resources like Google would atleast put a status page updating users of outages...
If someone figures out a solution to this problem please post...!
Phone: HTC Touch Pro2
OS: Winmo 6.5
Carrier: Vodafone UK
Same problem for me here!
I'm sorry (I'm not rubbing it in honest ) but my GMail has been working perfectly for the last couple of weeks. So maybe it's just newly set up accounts?
For those that have gmail working via activesync, how quick is it? when a message arrives on your desktop how much later does it take to arrive on your phone. I am seeing some delayed responses and having moved from Blackberry back to WM its not good.
I have it running over HSDPA (3G) with exchange server and it arrives on my phone before it gets to my desktop pc.

I know its been done and said, but would you mind doing a checklist on what settings you have got working for you?
On Gmail do you have POP3 enabled and IMAP enable or one on and the other off.
i've been having the same issue - calendar and contacts fine, but i can't sync mail.
i know it isn't the settings / labels issues mentioned here as I have it syncing fine on my kaiser...
Hmm. OK think we got crossed wires there. I thougth we were talking about GMail syncing in general. I was talking about my Tinity. Now I have the HD2 setup, it's not working for mail ether.
Same as everyone else, I have contacts and calendar working but no mail. It will get the mail if I set it up as a normal mail account but not with the syncing push type exchange account I can't see any errors, it's just not getting the mail
The thing is I get my mail, but just slow. I am not syncing contacts or anything else.
Sympathize with you Chimpsinties

Found a hash in one of my labels, deleted it resynced and it seems things are moving ok. Let see how it goes

hmmm. no hashes in any labels (i never imported / synced) from outlook. but still no joy...
same problem on my td2.
syncing of calendar and contacts works fine. but no mail.
funny thing is when i set it up the last weekend it all worked perfectly for about two days and suddenly error 0x8600050c.
i played arond a lot with googleapps after the setup and i thought this might be the reason it s not working any more.
so here is a list of things i tried to get it working again, well, still without success:
- looked for hashes in my labels (never had any though)
- deleted all labels
- change language from german to english and back
- deleted the tasks from my tasklist in gmail/calendar
- changed my password to alphabetical characters only
- registered a new gmail account without any changes
- changed the mail folder of gmail in wdmc that should be synced
some things that surely wouldnt help since it seems to be a google issue but i was desperate
- reinstalled wmdc
- flashed different roms
but damn it s still not working again. *sigh* gotta switch to windows-live if they dont get this fixed.
Hmm I think the problem with the gmail sync makes the rom of the hd2 itself because I also have a Touch Pro 2 and a Toshiba TG01 and on both of them its working fine so I try to import the active sync files and if it will work after that I´ll tell you!

[SOLVED] Manila takes up to 100% CPU-load after Soft-Reset

Hi,
my problem is, that manila takes up to 100% of the CPU-load all the time. Everything is extremely laggy. It's hard to do anything on my phone.
After a time manila goes to 0% and then filesys.exe goes up to 100%.
This happens after the SD-Card Storage update from HTC.
I have hard-resetted the phone...but nothing changed...
Please help
//EDIT:
After 5 Minutes everything is normal. The problem appers only after a soft-reset...
No idea? The Problem is really getting on my nerves.
Get SKTools and check what is in the startup.
i believe its the twitter client, the issue has been there since the early dutty leo roms for the blackstone i tried, the lag dissapears when the posts update! its weird because when you do a manual update the little spinning update symbol stops after a few seconds but the posts don't appear for about 5 mins, again causing my device to lag!
Strange...the problem disappeared.
Anyway, thanks for your answers!
do you have multiple e-mail accounts set up with lots of e-mails? That happens to me, but only with GMail acc which I completely synced (and yes, attachments are on the microSD card)
Very good point! I got IMAP and about 2000 emails in my inbox...This could really be the problem. Thank you! (The problem appeared again right now...)
You was absolutely right. Moved all emails to another folder. Now everything is fine. I really thank you!

How do you move all emails to another folder.. eg. SD card..??
I moved the emails on my IMAP emailserver, not on the HD2.
Thing is that my problem is associated to GMail account, where I connected another 2 IMAP accounts, and I cannot move mails from one folder to another. I resolved mine by switching to GMail Mobile, via Web Browser. I lost the notifications about e-mails and automatic checking, but the phone isn't slow now at least..
I wonder why the email client sometimes downloads all the emails instead the emails of the last 3 days (which can be set in the settings).
Having same issue with Raphael/Win6.5/Touchflo 3d
Have two accounts hotmail and yahoo, each with only a few emails, do not use twitter, I watch it upon softboot and it runs manilla.exe all the way up, I too wonder what its doing, I like it, however it pretty much makes the phone useless, I dump it from SPB Shell 3.5.3 which is running much quicker these days.
It appears that new release of touchflow2 has a few memory leaks as it drains the batt hard with all that processor.
I am curious if its not the email, I only have 12 stocks to monitor, however I have a few facebook contacts, could it be choking on that?

Help with Yahoo Mail! Downloading all my inbox for unknown reason!

Hey guys,
I am having this really weird issue with my email (which is Yahoo mail). I would initially set up my email as usual, i.e. by entering username and password and let it do it's thing.
I had setup my email settings as "download messages for the past 3 days" but for some reason after leaving the phone in sleep mode for several hours (i.e. overnight, while charging or unattended at work), it will then start downloading everything in my inbox under yahoo mail which is around 3,5xx emails without me knowing! and then the phone will start to become very very sloooow... having manila running 90-95% at all times, (my observation) apparently windows mobile email is trying to sync everything from the inbox (after finish downloading) to HTC sense which is causing a Big Slowdown! which is i think the reason why manila runs at 90-95%.
this has been an issue for me since i bought the phone, so i always end up deleting the account on the phone so it'll stop the sync to HTC sense and stop manila from running 90-95%.
It is very annoying and i was wondering if there is anybody over here has experienced the problem and solved it?
i have also tried upgrading my rom to the current european 1.6x but no luck and still acting the same. I just don't want to stop using the email that i've been using for the last 9 years just because of this.
I will greatly appreciate any help.
Anyone>?????? anybody??????? i am sure some of you uses yahoo mail.
just wanted to find out, if anybody is under the same situation when using yahoo mail!
thanks
How did you add your account in the first place? You should just enter your email address and let the HD2 setup automatically.
I guess you setup pop3 instead?
I'm facing the same issue. I went to HD2 email setup, entered the email address, password and used the default yahoo settings which HD2 suggested.
For the first 2 days I kept getting all new emails. However on the 3rd day overnight it downloaded the whole yahoo mailbox with over 2500 emails. Had to delete the account and add it back a couple of times, but the issue keeps recurring.
Any ideas what I'm doing wrong here. Is there any setting I need to change to prevent this from happening?
Chaps,
Don't know what settings you are using for Yahoo but if you want to restrict how many emails get downloaded to your device then do the following:
On the device go to Inbox>Menu>Tools>Options>Email Account (whatever you have called it). Tap on that and then tap on Send/Receive schedule.
Form here you can set the frequency of updates and how many days worth of emails you want downloaded onto the device.
Hope this is helpful

This issue also exists on my Raphael. Started a few months ago for some reason.
No matter what you set your retention limit to (3 days, 7, etc) it always tries to pull everything and bogs the phone done like crazy. Last time I wiped it, it was set to 7 days and it had email dating back to Jun 09.
Any idea on a resolution? as it seems to be affecting various devices.
up to now, i am still experiencing this problem.
i have tried everything.. i.e. hard reset, flashing to duttys holy grail v.05 rom and after setting up everything, it will still the same issue.
this issue only applies to yahoo mail.. i never had issues with gmail.
i wonder if it's because i am not using mail plus which requires a monthly fee and benefit you to use outlook using forwarding.
i never had this issue wih the iphone, although if you search yahoo, they specifically support iphone and blackberry only and regular mobile phones.
i have this problem too. i think its has something to do with Yahoo POP settings rather than our device. Gmail has a much more advanced mail settings than Yahoo. The gmail (IMAP) which is free is much better than yahoo plus (POP).
delete the accoun and wehn setting up again choose advanced settings you will find what limits this things
Same problem here
Hello, I have this problem in my Touch Pro 2. Haven't found a solution yet but I think the problem is at yahoo mail b/c i have used other imap and pop emails w/o having this behaviour.
It's probably some maintenance yahoo does to their servers that changes each mail datetime and thus, the WM mail client bring all inbox items and the phone gets freezed.
If someone find a solution for this issue please let me know.
regards,
Yasel
Same problem...
I am seeing this for my Yahoo mail on my Imagio also. It doesn't matter what the settings are, every few days, my entire inbox starts downloading (10000+ messages) causing the phone to hang & requires a hard reset.
Has anyone found a fix?
crude workaround
weird, this has started to happen to me on my tp2 in the last couple of weeks, maybe yahoo is doing something to different servers on a rolling basis.
Until it's fixed I've set up a folder within yahoo via my pc where I've dumped all emails over a couple of weeks old. I haven't synced my phone with that folder so myinbox is limited to a couple of hundred mails at the most. Once the issue resolves itself I'll put them back.

Hotmail is ruining my hd2, help

is it just me, or despite every method, setting, tweak humanly possible, Hotmail just basically sucks on this phone?
ive tried using the windows live client, ive tried using the htc email setup. ive set to headers only, text rather than html, sync only today, every 15 minutes. ive tried almost everything i can possibly find and still, it syncs 14000 emails and bogs down my phone whicl searching/connecting etc.
the only thing that works is to set the sync to 'manual" but even then, when i manually sync, total phone destruction (in the form of stuttering/freezing) ensues.
i get 500 exchange emails daily, puyshed in real time, no issues, lighting fast. Hotmail however...the worst.
am i alone ?
thanks
jason
14000
Yes you are alone.
I work in customer service so I'm gonna take a leap and say your frustration has blinded you.
Hotmail or windows live only syncs 50 e-mails by default. Take some time to calm down and explain exactly what is going on.
1) What ROM version do you have
2) What exactly are you trying to do
3) What program do you want to use. i e Windows live
4) What exactly happens i e. Is it immediately you sync via windows live that it freezes or is it when you try to run a program.
5) Have you tried a soft reset; and if you have have you tried a hard reset with only windows live initiated to see if the symptons persist.
We'd all love to help but help us help you.
I use Exchange and Hotmail both through the HTC email interface just fine. I have Hotmail on manual sync. Works like a champ. If you want, try going into the inbox first, then doing a menu-->send/receive and watch the status bar at the bottom.

There should be an option to only show that last day, 3 days or week. Do you not see that option when setting it up through Sense?

thanks for the replies. ill try ot be a bit clearer:
there are several ways to go about installing hotmail; i believe i've tried them all, with every possible configuration. they are as follows:
(please note that not only do i have sense disabled, i do nto have sense installed on my rom (see sig.)
windows live msgclient:
-- i constantly recieve the message "windows live is temporarily unavailable, please try again". keep in mind that i have exchange mail pushed in real time and two gmail accounts which sync every 5 minutes, no issues with them whatsoever.
here are my windows live msgclient configurations:
1) today screen options are unchecked
2) sync options: only "sync email" is checked
3) sync schedule: every 15 minutes, although ive tried manual and triead real time, same results.
4) syc status: synchronized
5) roaming: both boxes are checked, but ive also had them unchecked, no difference in results. still get this "windows live is temporarily unavailable, please try again"
6) messenger: unchecked
7) email: preview size is 15k but ive also tried every other setting, no difference. the other two boxes are checked but i have also had trhem unchecked as well, no difference.
8) about: version 10.7.0061.2000
after this failed for the millionth time, i tried using the htc email client setup instead. and uninstalled the windows live client. i get that same message constantly, AAAAAND my phone freezes up all the timne since it is constantly trying to sync 14k emails.
thats what i have thus far. the email works mostly. but the popup is crushing my soul.
any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
thanks guys,
jason

You need an option in the setup to only have it pull from the last week or less off the server. Otherwise there is no way that I know of besides deleting all of your old emails on hotmail to keep it from pulling everything on their server, which will crash your phone depending on how many emails you have on there. Window's Mobile setup lets you pick how many days worth you need when setting up Yahoo.
Did you log in to the hotmail website? I know they made some changes recently to an Exchange server format. I know that with my exchange account it doesn't give me the option. It pulls everything off the server. So I move old emails to a folder that I created on my local hard drive and move them every week or so.
Is there an option to move emails to a folder on your local hard drive in Hotmail? OR maybe you can set it up on the website so that it only pulls a few days worth?

Yep. I bet you can set it up in that program. Either a local hard drive folder to move your old emails to or set it up to pull from a certain number of days. Now you are cooking with grease...

S7 or MM treating POP3 e-mail different than S5 JB

Greetings. A long-time Android user and have setup many phones on both pop3 and corporate e-mail systems.
This has me perplexed. Another community had no answer so hopefully someone here can help. I have this issue with THREE S7's (2 edges) on TWC e-mail I have setup so I know it is not just one phone. I should have noted in that title that my S5 was on 5.0 lollipop by the time I stopped using it, not JB.
I have always used the standard e-mail app with a Time Warner POP3 account. I am familiar with IMAP but up until MM or the S7, the way it worked was great for me. I setup the phones for "delete from server when deleted on phone", or whatever the wording has changed to...and I have always had my desktop outlook client set to "delete from server". So during the day, all my e-mail was on the phone unless I deleted it. At the end of the day, Outlook would download what was left. But here is the different behavior. With my last phone, an S5 (and all prior android phones), when that phone next connected to that POP3 server, all of the e-mail that was no longer there would disappear from the phone. Yes, I am 100% sure I have been using the POP3 server/port number. This is how android behaved prior to the S7/MM. Now an Ipad always just left the e-mail on there (using the same server and ports). And.....that is what the S7 with Marshmallow is doing now. It will not delete any email from the phone when it syncs, you have to delete manually. And yes, I know that is how most people say POP3 works, but I am just explaining how things have been working to this point.
I know the obvious suggestion is that I have been using an IMAP setup for the last 10+ years. I can assure you I have not. The phones are setup with POP3 accounts using the POP 3 server/port. And Outlook is absolutely setup as a POP 3 account.
In fact, my old S5 is in airplane mode but on wifi. I just refreshed my TWC e-mail on my S5 and it still behaves EXACTLY the way it used to. All the old e-mail went away and only the e-mail that came in since I closed outlook showed up. So what has changed with the MM e-mail client behavior or e-mail settings? I see no new settings in there for this.
If this behavior is now "as expected" or an "enhancement", I am going to have to figure out how to switch to IMAP without messing up everything I have saved locally now in multiple folders and is working. I don't want to keep anything on the ISP's server, I want access to it during the day, then at the end of the day I want outlook to suck it all down. And then I want my phone to start downloading email after that moment that Outlook cleared out the e-mail for the new day....
Thanks for any help! Other than this e-mail issue (and the garish e-mail client colors) I love the device.
BJBBJB
I have exactly the same issue after receiving the Marshmallow update on a Samsung Galaxy S2 tablet yesterday, and I also have done email setup many times on various devices. I've seen many posts about this problem (bug) in various forums but no solution other than to abandon the stock email client. My work email server is pop3 and has no IMAP option. Very frustrating and no doubt a "feature" of MM.
After setting up multiple MM devices, the only solution that worked for me unfortunately involves IMAP.
I use IMAP on my phone and tablet, and pop3 on my PC desktop client. This most closely mimics the behavior of android devices prior to MM.
With the extensive discussion and analysis and fixes when even a little prompt is changed or some other minor item, it amazes me that this obvious change was never explained by the android code writers in detail. Like you, it was all user forum discussions that confirmed the behavior but no fix other than the workaround.
