Has anyone else noticed their gmail imap email messages populating correctly now?
Are you referring to the HTML/RTF issue with Pocket Outlook preventing message bodies from displaying properly in the Inbox?
It works with the new 3.16 gps rom... woot woot

really that is sweet! i hate how with Gmail and POP i get messages i sent in my inbox on the next send/recieve -- i just set up IMAP and it works great.
Nice! I remember being disappointed that it didn't work when I got the phone because my work doesn't use Exchange yet but at least I figured I could use IMAP on my personal account.
Just set it up and it seems to be working just fine.
Quick question about this: Is there any way to set it to mark things as 'read' once you read them on your mobile device? I'll deal with it if there isn't a way but it kinda sucks to read my messages on my phone and then have to log into gmail to re-mark everything as read.

I just did a test to make sure i was right -- once you read the messages on your phone, the next time you send/receive they will be marked as read in gmail. if yours is not doing this i don't know why. (this is using IMAP not POP)

Ahh... I didn't give it enough time. I have it set to check only every 15 minutes so it didn't get a chance to report back. Thanks.
Hmmm... Worked for me all day but now I am getting SSL and sync errors.
I have had the same problem (imap)....not receiving the body of the email. I believe it is a known issue with gmail and they are working on it. I just turned off the send and receive feature till they fix it. When I need to, I just log into gmail through IE to check my messages.

What ROM are you running. It works with the test ROM. I had some issues with syncing but I soft reset and I was OK. It was mainly giving me issues when I tried to send anything this time.
got my HD2 and cannot get gmail/googlemail to work, tried manual and auto. The HD2 keeps saying account user name or password wrong. it isnt. Activesync works, but i prefer gmail via imap.
any help please
I'm sure you have but have you tried your full email address as the username as well as just your name i.e. [email protected] or myname?
Sometimes I find it changes on what is required depending on where you are trying to access it from.

Tried Imap, worked.
i cannot get it to work!
Did you have it working on your previous phone or is this the first time you've used this service? Just checking as you need to activate pop3 or IMAP in Google settings first online.

i hace had it working many times.
Well if you had it working before and checked all the obvious settings, then I'm slightly stuck as Xmoo seems to be fine.
If no one else can help then I suppose it's HTC support that's where you need to try next....
I'll check mine tomorrow when it arrives...

maybe wrong password?
i wish it was that simple. i wonder if its because i came from htc hero?
also, no email accounts i setup synced until i went into the email account options and changed "the internet" to "t-mobile internet". so much for sim auto setup.

Coming from a Hero shouldn't make a difference. The Hero was using gmail push unless you manually configured imap on it.
Might be worth just double checking the ports etc to make sure. Don't get me wrong, I think you've probably got it all right, but best to be sure!
I'll be checking mine when I get it on Friday so if I have the problem, ill let you know, but I'm sure you'll have it sorted before then.
Sim Auto set up is great for novices, but not always what more experienced users want. I had to change my APN settings on hero to get faster / unproxied internet from o2.
Thanks everyone. Got it working.
I went into my gmail via pc and once again went into settings. This time I disabled pop (it was enabled along with imap) and from HD2 homescreen I added a new account. However, I didnt select GMail option, just other but everything just worked. Also, I didnt need to change the settings with the email account setup to "Tmobile Internet" as the "The Internet" setting just worked. Really really odd.
So I dont know if it was cured by turning off the pop setting, or setting gmail up on the HD2 via the other email option, but it works
Thanks for everyone who replied.
I have a similar but differnet issues.
Using Google exchange sync. it pushes contacts and calendar, but wont push ANY mail to my device (it synced the folders tho!) i've checked the dates, and the ranges to download, and it just wont do it at all. tried checking th ebox, unchecking th ebox, rechecking thebox (some people said it was second time lucky for them)
I've set up gmail as IMAP in the interim and that works fine. but im stumped as to why it wont exchange sync with the rest of the stuff!
Ok, i figured out my issue, and im surprise dit isnt documented anywher eon google,i found it on one of their forums and a member there discovered it, not a google Mod.
If you have subfolder under your inbox, it wont work.
i.e. if you have any "/" in your google mail labels (which is how GMAIL sets itself up if you use outlookwith IMAP on it),then it wont sync
i had sub folder sin outlook, so in gmail they becme labels such as:
Inbox/Ebay
Inbox/personal
and the "/" trips up the exchange sync. which seems very strange considering that the phone correctly recognises them as labels.
I had the same issue: my HD2 didn't want to sync with google. So I tried the option of disabling POP. At first it didn't work. But after I changed [email protected] to [email protected] it suddenly worked. I hope this helpes someone.
It worked for me but it doesnt push :S and ive set it to upon arrival of new mail or w.e it says..
It just doesnt push anything
I've got my gmail push working ok but, probs a silly question, how do you change the name of the account as mine is showing as Outlook and I've searched everywhere I know and can't find an option to change it to gmail

I was having the same exact issue and manually disabling POP from the web solved it for me! IMAP now working perfectly.
Balls. Spoke too soon. Still not working for me. Get the same username/pass error as before.
WooHoo!
Using the "Other" email account option seems to have fixed it. There must be something screwy in the IMAP settings that HTC Sense uses by default when you select Google Mail.
Ok,
This is getting weird now. I have two gmail accounts configured using the same method, one works perfectly and consistently, the other sporadically fails to connect/log-on etc...
Does anyone have any idea what the problem might be?
EDIT:
There's no rhyme or reason to this. One account works perfectly everytime, the other account will work sometimes then randomly throw the username/password error.
Hi Guys,
Wondering if there's anyone who can help me with an issue I'm having.
I've set my corporate email up (NOT Gmail) and set it to sync every hour, however this setting doesn't seem to get applied and I'm receiving notifications as soon as emails arrive in my inbox i.e. push notifications.
Anyone else having this issue? Or know how to stop this from happening?
Cheers,
B

Having the same issue and I've posted this very same question a good while back too.
The only "valid" response that I got was install a mail app on your phone...
I haven't done that and I'm just living with the push as it is :/
Due to Franco's Kernel my battery lasts more than a day so I'm happy enough (meaning I don't mind the extra battery drain from this)
But I'd still like it if it were once per (half) hour

That's the only solution I've been given yes.. And I refuse to get an app for things that should work buildin anyway.
My topic just got no further answers..
Another one, "best" response was to get an app
Several more topics but non consist of any information about this ANNOYING BUG! :/

Thanks mate! I guess most people either want push notifications, or they're using another app for non-gmail email...
No problem.
Still doesn't fix the issue at hand though!
So if anyone has any advice how to fix this, feel free!!
I have noticed this too with my work e-mail account which connects to a corporate Exchange server using ActiveSync. I noticed that when setting the e-mail to anything other than push nothing changed apart from the battery usage for the exchange service on the phone, which surprisingly seemed to go up.
Is everyone who is having this issue using Exchange e-mail accounts?

I'm only syncing my hotmail email account and that gives problems for me. Not sure about the google one as I don't really use it.
Anyone got any solution besides an app?!

How have you configured Hotmail? Has it been set up as an Active sync (corporate) account (will have options for calendar and contacts syncing) or a POP3 account?
Using POP3 will probably let you choose a checking frequency, but you lose the option to delete messages from the server etc.

So all these topics including in the ask anything topic and no one even bothered to mention this? :/
It's written nowhere that this is the solution. And damn it's very easy too
So basically if you use google for calendar / contacts its the following:
* Ability to delete mails from server -> connect as Corporate
* sync frequency -> connect as Mail

This is my first android phone so the difference was unknown to me sadly.
Thanks!
Got my new Galaxy S4. What is up with the email app? are you able to have it push email? i dont want it to poll every 5 minutes, i need my emails instantly...
I turned on sync in the email app, which apparently this is not push, anyways, throughout the day when i open the email app i get a popup saying email sync disabled. Why?
Can anyone confirm that the search function works?? I have my email set up as an imap account, whenever i want to search something in my email i get 0 results, and if i hit the search on server, it does not bring up anything either. This happens with all my email accounts on my phone, and my wife's accounts on her GS4. Any idea why??
I have a rooted S4, not using a custom rom. I have tried K9 email but it is just plain ugly. I actually like how the stock email app looks but nothing works!
I searched all over the internet and i dont see anything on most of these issues so im assuming im doing something wrong if nobody else is talking about this. Please, any help would be awesome. My wife wants her iphone back because of this.
I use the stock email app with no issues. I have it set to recieve from my work exchange account, my outlook and gmail accounts. All are push, and all of mine are searchable with no issues.
You may try erasing the account, and then resetting it. I know my outlook account is also an exchange server, but the gmail I think is IMAP. All mine have the check box "sync email" checked, and I set all to push notifications. Be sure you are setting up the account in the email app itself, that may help.

Where do you see the email push setting? only see sync, and whenever i turn on sync, i get a popup a few hours later when i open the app that sync has been disabled. Even when i enable sync, it gives me the option for sync schedule for at most every 15 minutes.
As far as the search, i use godaddy imap and yahoo. I cant search anything out of what is showing when i open the app. It shows me default of i think 25 emails when i open the app and if i scroll to the bottom it starts to load more. When i do a search, it only searches through what is loaded and when i do continue searching on server i get nothing more. The only results is what is in the 25 loaded messages, or 50 messages if i scroll down at let it load more...

The email app on the iphone is far better than the stock email app on the SGS4. I think the stock email app on the SGS4 is utter crap, at least with IMAP. Maybe it works better with exchange. I use Kaiten, which is an upgraded/updated version of K9. Another one that I looked at briefly was AquaMail.

The thing is i actually really like the email app on the GS4. I think the layout is nice and the email app is one of the few times i actually feel that the air view feature is really useful. The problem is, is that it is not reliable. I need my emails instantly and the email app is not getting it for me. I just figured out the search problem i was having. If i just change in the settings messages to load from 25 to "total" all of my messages will be there and search is fine. I still wish there is a way to have my emails come instantly rather than every 15 minutes. Aside from the push issue, what else do you dislike about the stock app that the other apps have? The only thing i noticed on the iphone is the push option...

Four major issues are (and there are other minor issues):
- Lack of IMAP IDLE (push)
- When you reply to someones message, the text in their message is reformatted in your reply (font changes and line spacing changes). Looks unprofessional for work email.
- html hyperlinks are sometimes not properly parsed and are unclickable. I get a news service hyperlinks to articles. None of the hyperlinks work on the stock email client. I have to forward the message to gmail or something to click on the hyperlinks.
- emails sent from stock email client do not sync properly and have a different format on my outlook client.
Kaiten has none of these problems. These are not problems with the iphone app either.

plus, to update on the syncing being disabled. I set the sync to on, reboot my phone, opened the mail app and i get the pop up that says sync disabled. I open the settings and the sync option is no longer checked.
Just tried Kaiten...It was downloading so many copies of my emails. It showed each email at least 4 times...uninstalled...
They are correct, the one I looked at was my Outlook.com email address, and my work address. The gmail address shows the same thing as yours.
I guess the news hasn't gotten around fully. Gmail accounts to do not support push with anything other than the native stock android gmail app anymore (since, when exactly, I don't remember. March or April of this year?). In that particular case, it's not the fault of the Samsung email app. No other app besides the official "gmail" app will receive emails by push from a gmail account, and that includes any email applications on any other system from iphone to any other operating system. Blame gmail.
The only thing I miss by using the stock email app is that I can't get it to come up in the combined inbox by default...I have to select it each time which is a bummer.

On the email app where it says security type for SMTP. If you're using a TLS type, try selecting STARTTLS (Accept all certificates) instead of just SSL/TLS option.
This solution worked for me.

Check the push frequency? Otherwise it may be on the end of your email provider. I know when I worked at 3M and tried to push emails to my phone, I got maybe 1/3rd of the emails. It really could just be the company :/

Simply go into settings (besides refresh icon, right corner), then click on your email name and then under DATA USAGE, change the INBOX CHECK FREQUENCY according to your desired option.
