can anyone help? I've setup my gmail account in messaging, and can send to myself and others using messaging (send and receive sends fine), BUT I can't get it to receive! pop and smtp servers are setup ok but when I send and receive I get nothing back. I can logon onto my gmail account and see the email sitting quite happily in my inbox.
any ideas?
Hi, I imagine you already have your issue fixed, but if not, are you allowing pocket outlook to auto config the settings?, I skipped this the first few times when first setting my email up, and it seems I always had something wrong, so I let the auto config do its thing, and it works beautifully with gmail.
well, i've stiil not got it working yet, but i'm going through the auto setup as we "speak". so i'll keep you posted.
MM.
how long does the auto setup normally take? it's been sat at the downloading stage for 30 mins now!
Dont know if youve seen this but theres a new app from google for gmail, its java and i couldnt get it to work but others may have success, anyway you can grab it from http://gmail.com/app (using your mobiles browser)
That app doesn't work with the midlet manager on the TyTn
got the same problem with my gmail and also the same problem with the auto configuration. does anyone have gmail working for both sending and receiving? if so can you post the settings? thanks
And me, I cannot send but receive. I was use defalts setting for gmail. If any one want to set by defalts, you must be online! Can any one resolve my problem?
pop.gmail.com:995
smtp.gmail.com:465
no ssl
no domain
use authentification, outgoing settings same
mine is set to connect and check every 15 minutes, and get headers, and 999kb of body.
I just set up my two gmail addys a day ago, I did a hard reset to fix a few issues, all I do is put in my gmail addy, and password when it asks, and it working in minutes.
I didn't pay special attention to your carriers, but I think I might have had issues when I used medianet [email protected], I pay for the pdaconnect plan now, resco radio wouldn't work on wap either.
I dunno what to tell you for sure, but if any of you use cingular, you might give the [email protected] settings a try, but I wouldn't plan on using them permanently you might get a crazy bill.
I'm sure the other carriers have corresponding settings, and I'm just guessin the problem, but that is the only possible difference in our devices, and I'm not sure about your connection.
edit: I don't think any of you are on cingular, I seen tmobile, but I really don't have any ideas on what all the different carriers offer.
Just make sure in GMail on your c mputer you go to settings, tab forward and pop and set up gmail to forward messages to POP ONLY from now on. If you have a lot of messages in Gmail it will take forever otherwise.
Hope this helps.

Actually found a way to get it to work
http://msmobiles.com/news.php/5729.html
Gonna try sky mobile jar using this technique too.
msmobiles.com says that the latest version (6.1) of the IBM J9 JVM for CLDC runs Gmail just fine. Have anyone tried it?
Yes it works, anyone know of a good link to d/l the jar file for sky by mobile
UPDATE
Tried doing sky by mobile app using this method can enter login details but cannot click or use the login key on screen so same as manually installing the jar using default midlet app, very annoying so close yet so far.

You haven't install a Java VM but one more Java VM, which runs Java applications in a different way.

Possibly but it still doesn't answer the question: why was my TyTn unable to run any Java with its shipping OS?
Hi All mates download gmail directly. from
Code:
http://m.google.com/app/v2.0.6/L1/gmail-g.jar
or find the attached file. and simply run.
Anyone get a screenie and a little feedback?
You can actually set up Gmail through TF3D though, right?
you can set up GMail in pocket outlook....
Yeah, that's what I thought, so I was wondering why you would want a seperate app for it...
This is a java application, that is not intended specifically for WM. So I think it is actually for java enabled dumb phones...
But this application has some advantages. If I refer to desktop PC, it is like using web address of gmail instead of configuring MS outlook. So you can use gmail web interface if you find it more useful.
Also you have access to ALL emails via the gmail app, not just the last 5 days or howevery ou have set it up.
This isnt really new, its been out awhile.. Major bug I have with it is that the timezone for my emails is different from my phone, so it says I recieved a new message 5 hours into the future. I posted on Google Mobile Help, but Google doesnt seem to give a ****. Wish they had a good REAL WM Gmail app. Using Pocket Outlook sucks for gmail as well
help gmail app for touchpro 2
I really enjoyed the gmail app when i had my blackberry curve. is the gmail app compatible too the touchpro 2? i can not get it to work.
There is a WM native gmail app dudes..

Where? Please post a link...
dont think so... searched gmail/google. culdnt find anything
You are the best, that gmail 2.0.6 you've attached works perfect and really fast on my SonyEricsson XPERIA X1 (WM 6.1), but download link from google site don't work. Maybe they've relocated it.
I dont see the point unless you need activesync for a different email account.
Hi guys,
After installing Gmail app v2.0.6 on my HTC HD2 and running it via jblend everything is OK except; after entering user ID and pass, clicking on sign-in ( on the bottom - right) move me to password filed and wont log-in att all !!
Anyone tried v2.0.6 on WM via Jblend ?
Or any solution to sign-in ??
Tnx in advanced

I got this verson to work on my phone, with JBED
Tested this app outlook has the same settings just go to manual settings in outlook
I had an epiphany today, I want to share this idea, perhaps someone here has the knowledge to pull it off, unfortunately, I am not a C programmer:
Gmail already has built in RSS feeds. Every Gmail account hass RSS feeds for every label at https://mail.google.com/mail/feed/atom/LABEL/ (This also works for Apps at https://mail.google.com/a/DOMAIN.TLD/feed/atom/LABEL/ ).
The only requirement is that the feed reader support authentication.
Now lets bring pRSSreader into the equation (http://code.google.com/p/prssr/)
Supports SSL, Yes!
Supports Authntication, YES!
Source Code Available! GPL!
So to start: A competent developer begin with the pRSSreader code, change the UI a bit so that it will revolve around inputing gmail accounts and it will be able to read our mail)
The next step is to add a simple SMTP component that will send outgoing mail through the GMAIL smtp.
What do the smart people here think?
I'm not critisizing your idea by any means, but why not using the mobile JAVA app done by google?
It works flawlessly with JBED or JEODEK for WM. The functionality is also great. Of course, it's not native WM app, but it's still worth a while.

The JAVA app is great... except that the text font (including menu and everything) is too tiny and small on my Diamond. Otherwise it's great app...

Go to m.gmail.com on your phone, and then download it. It should automatically recognize that you have a windows mobile phone and offer you the JAVA version to download.

^^ that was the point of ethanpil's suggestion.
@ethanpil, I think it's a good idea, the only hole I see is that it's mostly for people who actually use the labels now, yes?
wait....maybe i'm not understanding u guys properly...u dont wanna use the mail program that it came with?? i have a diamond and i synced it to my outlook which has gmail..so when i'm on WIFI it vibrates when i get a gMail.....
so what is it that Java program do that this one doesn't??
Why not use Emoze? That has true push and works great with Gmail. Gmail also has a Exchange server for your calender and contacts.

sinara, look for VGA hacked JBED (here on XDA) - it solves problems with small fonts on our devices.

You can fix the font sizes with simple regedits.
Why do ppl want this?? Outlook can link to IMAP from google natively. Which All wm6 phones have...so why does anyone care about an external app that windows can do by default. I'm not discounting it or anything I'm just really confused on this issue

I am with you here, gmail with imap is the way to go. If your device automagically finds gmail settings, just misspell gmail when entering your email addy, then fix it after you have unchecked to automatically find settings.
I believe the reason for doing this is to get away from the built-in (WM) applications which for the most part suck. Not to mention that the emails are stored in a database and not in individual files (as in Qmail). Even if it was stored in a database, the database should be easily manipulated to allow for quick backup and recovery operations (SQLite?). Not to mention that such an application can implement great features like imap-idle and connecting over 1x/gprs to save battery life (and privates).
Just my two cents.
The reason is as many have guessed above:
1) The Java version sucks for WM users: its not native, and a few times alerady if I exited hastily by hitting the X instead of through the menus then my DB was corrupted and I had to reinstall the app
2) Something native will be able to take advantage of all of the features of WM and run in the background better.
3) The native apps also suck.
4) Push IMAP and activesync take horrendous battery power
Anyway, I have been using NewsBreak to read my gmail by RSS and it works great, updates once per hour, and runs real fast in background and I get notification of new emails and I only downlod the labels I need... Its just a pain to then login to gmail app to reply...
I have a small application (in VB.NET) that I am working on but in this moment it is "work in progress". I am able to connect to GMail over SSL in POP3, SMTP and IMAP.
In this moment I am trying out POP3 but I have some problems when downloading larger attachments from GMail (out-of-memory exceptions) which I have to sort out.
I guess I could make a native application for GMail - however the first beta version would not support attachments (at least larger attachmnets - let's say more than 200KB - until I have sorted out the problem mentioned above).
In order to produce a first version, I still would need some days but if there's interest, I could give it a shot.
Rgds,
Tilleke

Add spellchecking to your applications.
See: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=495728
this would def worth a shot since it's a bunch of shareware ideas taken into an all in one freeware app to add to our collection of greatly developed freeware. i'd rather use a custom made freeware app that will always add features rather than waste memory with certain shareware programs just to have all the bells and whistles scattered across the cluttered memory

I've been doing that since my 8525.. I can't believe that anyone would rather 'fight' with a 3rd party app.. I can see the argument for push, but if you really need up to date inbox, just get a scheduler to set your 'active' hours so you get faster updates when you need it. Typically I get emails at the same time though.
Has anyone managed to set up their N1 to work with a hosted exchange server? My corporate IT doesn't have a clue what I'm talking about unfortunately. We use USA.net to host, I have a proxy exchange server I have tried as well as the usa.net server that shows up in Outlook. I love this phone but if I can't get exchange working it has to go back. Any ideas or experience would be appreciated.
Should work fine. I use mail2web hosted exchange. You wont get your calendar but you'll get contacts and email. There are other options for getting the calendar working. Motocal.apk is one of them.
Should being the operative word here. Every configuration I have tried has been unsuccessful. I was hoping there was a super secret setting somewhere for hosts or proxies that I was missing.
I connect to exchange server 2003 with no issues. Make sure they have webmail enabled. Are exchange server is xxx-exc-01 and I use webmail.domainname.com to connect to the server via webmail.
I use touchdown from the market. The stock app doesn't support many of the security features corporations use in exchange. Touchdown is free and full featured for 5 days so you can see if it works for you. It does calendar and tasks too and works better than any of windows mobile phones.
If it works it costs $20 after the trial but it is worth it.
I use a hosted exchange also and have no problems. Are you sure you are putting the proper username in? For example mine is exchange/e123456789
Also, make sure you have their correct exchange server address. For example, 1and1's address is exchange.1and1.com
What is probably happening is that your Nexus One isn't an "accepted" handset... I work for a carrier, and they and they had to change the email security settings to include the Nexus One before it worked...
I used TouchDown during that period, and like it a lot! Very good app, can get it free if you take advantage of the repeat trial window issue. I am using the stock app instead of TouchDown, though, since I prefer it's simplicity.
Well, touchdown works with the same info that didn't connect on the default app. No push though, which is strange. Thanks for the heads up on this app, I'm not too fond of the interface but it is better than nothing.

You can get close to stock app interface by making a homescreen short cut straight to your email folder:
On deisred home screen... Menu:Add:Shortcut:Touchdown:Inbox(I think is what they called it, recently flashed a new rom and didn't re-install so can't say 100%).
It will be a homescreen short cut straight to the inbox like the stock app does.
Finally. Microsoft have released a standalone app for Hotmail which supports Push, activesync, folders HTML, the lot.
Called "Hotmail" and its by Microsoft + Seven.
http://www.liveside.net/2011/10/03/official-windows-live-hotmail-app-for-android-released/
Works perfectly for me.
It was already supported in Touchdown...

Nice works good for me too. I only can't seem te find the setting for changing te ringtone for new e-mails..
It seems to work quite good for me (5 accounts). But I have a big issue when editing/creating contacts : Only the name fied is available. I cannot edit phone numbers, mails, address, notes...
Do you know why?
I tried it yesterday on my DHD with MIUI but it seemed to drain my batt down.
Anyone else notice the same?
No, on the contrary it seems to be low consuming on mine!
I used to have the native google mail app to synchronize my hotmail accounts (with push). It worked quite well, but with no HTML, and the battery drain was higher than with this app.
After 2 days, it only used 2% of battery with push enabled and 34 mails received (and read)
Did anyone try to modify a contact with it? are you able to modify something else than the name? I'm not, so I had to keed another program to do it...
I was under the impression that ActiveSync supported everything, no need for this app. Not for me anyway. I just sync up with ActiveSync.

yes i also just discovered that MS active sync actually works as all the time i was trying to use the hotmail but have found out that tmobile are restricting outgoing messaging but i thought id try the microsoft activesync and guess what ? ........IT WORKS !!
so no need (well atleast in my case) for any hotmail or another app as the inbuilt htc email thing is working with hotmail by using exchange active sync instead of using the windows live/hotmail option
In fact it was not working in htc's app before the lastest rom upgrade...
It now works, but I still have some issues : contacts sometimes not synchronizing, no html rendering, problems with accents in french...
htc's mail app is still not very good...
this new Microsoft app is supposed to garanty that everything works fine. And moreover you have html mails at last!
(with pushed hotmail)
Thanks for that!!
Thanks, although I despise Hotmail, some people (family) still insist on using my 10 year old Hotmail email address and this beats having the once-an-hour GMail POP3 check only.
thanks this app is great!
