Hi everyone,
I have a big problem with the Tab.
Since i have a galaxy s i know my exchange is working fine over activesync,
But the Tab is not. Everytime i try to set the connection up, makes no difference if through email new account, or accounts and it starts to connect in exchange i can se the request cominf n and the phone beeng ad as device for the user, but it never connects on the tab.
Any ideas?

Do you get a "Unable to connect to server" error on your Tab when trying to retrieve your email?

I had the exact same issue. Sprint released an update the other day that corrected my issue but it wasnt immediate.
If you are not sprint based, you are going to need the update from your provider
Hmmm that is bad i just have a free tab without carrier so i have to ask samsung for support, because it seems not to be a carrier problem, but a email app problem. Could you provide me your email.apk please?

I was connecting using PPTP and got the same problem. Try changing to IPSEC and see if your administrator can give you a password. That should solve the problem. Mine is working fine now.

Try mine, if you want. This is from an unlocked, unbranded European Tab, that I can personally confirm works fine with Exchange at our office.

Rapax could you add the odex?
Thanks, but this is the same that i have on my tab.
Probably i have to wait for the other version.

Iwill try that and report afterwards then. Hopefully it will be no issue with the ssl certificates

I'm also from Switzerland. (My Tab is from digitec.) But I've also problems to connect with our corporate Exchange 2010 SP1.
Just for verification: your Tab can sync with a Exchange 2010 SP1? the service pack is the important thing. As I know there is no problem if you have not installed it.
Thanks for your reply.

Best bet is to switch to TouchDown for Exchange support. Much better than the inbuilt free apps.

Currenty I use Moxier which also works good. But the buildin calendar as the contacts too would I like to use in the native apps

Hi Adrian,
It has nothing to do with the passwords, it is an EAS/Provision Problem for Android which is fixed in 2.2.1 and the funny thing is that my Galaxy S is working fine with the same Exchange, but the Tab is not, as i heard Sprint fixed that somehow.
I could rip Samsungs Heads of, for letting people buy their stuff and not supporting it then.
I have had the same problem across multiple devices. I stumbled on a solution yesterday and I now have exchange access using vanilla froyo (removed the blur) on my droid x and thankfully on my tab. I had been using Touchdown Exchange from the market for 8 months now and am always frustrated with the fairly regular database corruption problems on my android devices. Here is what I did...
After receiving the 'unable to connect' message for the hundredth time, I connected via wifi to my network AT WORK, where the exchange server is located. (I was on the actual domain locally) I cleared the cache and data from the email app and went through the setup again, manually. Voila, it connected, authenticated and I am now setup via push on my tab.
I wonder if it has to do with receiving the certificate from the server...
Hope this may help some of you.
It has been syncing fine over 3G ever since.

Hey all, going on 2 days with my hd2 thanks to the cookers here.
I appreciate all of the hard work!
My issue: I can not get my contacts/calender on my phone. I am trying to use activesync and google's ability to support an exchange sever but it keeps saying my password is wrong. There's about 500 posts about this on google's support forum.
I know my information is correct. Its the same information that works on my ipad/iphone.
So i have 3 questions:
1.) How do I get it to work?
2.) Is there a cooked ROM that has this working?
3.) What is an alternative way to get my calender/contacts on my hd2 with out using outlook?
Thanks!
Try this mate http://nuevasync.com/ they do a free trial, to sync your calendar and contacts or paid to sync multiple accounts/calendars and email, ive been using this for about 3 months and it never fails me,
although you should be abe to sync using these instructions but i am guessing uve tried that already!?
I hope it works out
It should work fine (been using it for over a year). Make sure you unchecked 'tasks.' Other than that the server should be m.google.com and nothing for domain (a 'space' if you need to put something in). Otherwise it should work just fine with your [email protected] and password

Hi.
I've just gotten the GT and having problems trying to connect to my office exchange account.
I just kept gettung the error 'unable to connect server'.
I've read on some website that theres a bug in the exchange of certs between exchange 2007 and android 2.2. Does anybody has a solution to this? I've tried using TouchDown to connect to the same account and it works so the problem has to be with the native email client.
I brought this GT mostly for work purposes and without a email client, tge GT is pretty useless. Am i'm screwed?

I seem to recall a setting where you can force the Tab to retrieve the certificate. I had to do this to make it work. I can not remember exactly where the option is listed though.
After having been connected to my company's MS Exchange server on my HTC EVO for over four months, I was prompted to change my password on the domain (on my PC) and since then, I've not been able to re-connect with the new password.
I tried deleting the account and rebooting my phone and re-creating the account from scratch, but whenever I try to re-connect, I get the following error message:
Setup could not finish
Unable to open connection to server
The IT guy at work put in his own credentials and had the exact same problem.
The interesting thing is that I downloaded a trial of Touchdown for Exchange which uses the same credentials, and that seems to connect fine. I have no idea why one works and not the other.
Does anyone know what might be happening when I try to connect by adding a new account?
My suspicion is that there was some change in the Exchange server settings that impacted me once I changed my password to reconnect, but would like to hear other theories.

I for the life of me don't understand why I can connect to my exchange server using a third-party app (touchdown) but not using the native email app.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
If your company made any changes to their exchange server, then you need to figure out exactly what is needed to connect. I have setup 10 different android phones on our exchange server, and the settings to connect were different on 5 of them. We also had 3 of them that were on exchange 2010 instead of exchange 2003, and those settings were even more different.

+1. I've spent hours with IT and with Sprint and nothing. I got this from Sprint to help my get it going, so I will post here in hopes it will help you. They sent me this link:
http://community.sprint.com/baw/message/208942
And this email:
"The only way to fix this issue is by having access to Active Directory on a server with Exchange plugins.
Go Active Directory Users & Computers (Enable Advanced Features if needed)
Open the properties of the user that is having the issue
Click on the Security Tab
Click the Advanced button
In the Default Permissions tab check the box at the bottom for "Include inheritable permissions from this object's parent"
Wait for AD to propagate (5-10 minutes) "
The info on the link I was not able to try because it required changes being made to the server that my company would not allow. The email info they sent me did not apply to me because the server at my job was already set up that way.
Good luck. I gave up getting the native app to work right. I don't know why something that should be so simple is such a mission.
Not sure if this will work or if you have tried it but. Clear the application data/cache from the applications menu in settings.
For you server, did you put in "owa.mycompany.com" or "somethingelse.mycompany.com"?
It sounds like this might be the problem. You need to have your owa server listed there instead of the exchange server for Outlook.

Hi,
Just switched from iphone 4 to the Arc. Love everything it represents except for the corporate exchange email, contacts and calendar sync.
Tried setting up the exchange email with the same settings per my iphone (SSL on as well). Unforturnately, I have zero success in setting it up and was met with the following error message:
'Setup could not finish - Server requires unsupported security features'
Has anyone else encountered this before when switching from their iphone 4 to arc? I've also done some research online and the SE website actually mentioned that I have to activate 'device administrator' on the phone. So I went to settings->Location & security settings->Select device administrators and it shows 'No available device administrators'??
HELP!!

Hi ludovic.audoin, good to know that you've succeeded in setting it up. My exchange server starts with webmail.xxx.com.au im assuming that's what you mean by mail2web?
What settings did you use for the following:
Domain: did you leave it blank?
Server: webmail type?
User name: just user name of with the @domain?
SSL: On?
Thanks!

Hello,
in fact mail2web is a exchange server provider. The only thing I do is to fill my email adress and password and after that it connects to mail2web and download the parameters. I did not go inside the manual parameters.

Ok,I've resolved (somewhat) the issue. Basically, the native email client is crap when it comes to supporting corporate exchange mail servers with strict security requirements.
So, instead of using the native mail client, I downloaded the 'enhanced mail' ($9.90) client from the app store instead. Set it up with the same credentials used previously and viola, it worked !!
But I have to admit, being a first time android user, im very disappointed with its exchange email integration as it's not as powerful as the iphone variant. On the iphone, I was able to scroll through folders with ease.
Still not quite sure if the xperia arc is suitable for me due to its limitation in exchange server integration.

Hi, I just got my arc in this week and can't set up the exchange active sync. My company uses version 2007.
And I also tried the "enhanced mail" and can't work, either...

Hi not sure why it didn't work in your case as enhanced email does support exchange 2007.
Have you checked your security settings (ssl etc...)? When I set mine up, it actually asked me to set up a 4 digit pin prior to activating the mail, contacts and calendar sync.
Hello,
are you able with your contacst sync with exchange to sort them by Name/First Name instead of First Name/Name ?
Best regards

It depends on the security settings of your corporate exchange server. Mine's very strict due to the nature of my work.

Could be. And most exchange administrators make tweaks for the iPhones because the bosses are using them.

Yeah mate! I got mine off eBay Aus and it's a Singapore stock (I think). Seller is local though and great after sales service. My arc's speaker died after 2 days and I got it replaced by the seller. You can probably get it around $650 delivered.
If you are planning to go on contract, I saw Optus selling it on the $59/mth contract for 24 months. Cheers.
just got the message from SE customer service: Arc can't support Exchange 2007 SP1, even other Android 2.3 mobile...

Same here.
Our Exchange setup was just changed to support the enhanced security features and they just forced the "remote wipe" capability.
So everybody who was used to the stock client is shut out!
Google issued a patch for the same BUT to ENTERPRISE customers only!
googleenterprise dot blogspot dot com/2011/04/putting-android-to-work-for-your.html
What the hell was that about.
The stock android mail client was working for me a lot of the people and now it just gives some error about unable to connect.
Now if we need our corporate email we have to either buy the Commercial product:
TouchDown Email : $20
MoxiMail : $20
Enhanced Email : $10
OR compromise with the free clients which just does mail.
K-9 Mail works for most of the Motorola Droid phones.
I have a LG GT540 and it stopped after a day.
MailDroid works better on LG GT540 android phone. I have a rooted android 2.2 on GT540.
All the free mail clients are the basic exchange mail clients which can help you to read email and reply to email.
It does not have GAL (corporate addressbook Lookup). So you need to know the email address of the person to send email to.
Workaround: Corporate AddressBook
Looks up corporate addressbook and has search function.
After a few weeks use most of them switched to MailDroid which seems to be more stable.
Any of the genius out there who have been working on the ROM have been able to get the patch in so that the stock email client can work as it is supposed to work?
That was the core function most users use their phone for and now it does not work unless you pay up and buy a commercial product.

i have exchange set up and it is working perfectly, you might have the server info entered incorrectly.
It's telling address or password is wrong or can't connect with server. I've tried changing domain server settings.haven't had a problem. On HTC or Samsung's. On the galaxy it puts domain and username together and asks for exchange Server while on lg it seperates. User and domain and asks for server address..the problem is something I'm entering in one of those spots

Did you manage to find a solution to this problem. I have just got a brand new LG G2 and have the exact same problem when trying to configure an exchange acccount. When debugging the issue on our mailserver it seems that the G2 is somehow mixing domain, mailaddress and username in a way that our mailserver does not recognize.
I either get "cannot connect to server" or "wrong address or password".
LG plain out refused to assist staing that they do not support customers with exchange problems....

Exchange is just a pain. I'm getting that same message, but it's syncing. This has been happening with all my phones except my HTC for the last 6 months. It works, then it doesn't. It says password is wrong, but it syncs. They just need to make a unified setup for it. This is what I enter for my domains on all 3 phones. Keep in mind, they all connect to the same server and domain.
HTC EVO: (nothing, it doesn't ask for a domain)
Droid RAZR: \*********@*****.com
LG G2: \NA
Even when I set up Samsungs, they're a different domain as well.

For me, the problems started when we switched to the m.outlook.com server about 8 months ago. Prior to that I had no issues with my MDA, Wing, Droid, Droid 2, RAZR, or EVO. So I wonder, in my case, if it is the G2 or the server.

I spoke with my IT guy and he is going to send me some screen shots for settings. Unfortunately most everyone in the company uses iPhones so I might be SOL. I like this phone (especially the size) but I have to get this figured out. The note 3 is a great phone but just too big for me with a case on it. I'll keep you informed.
That would be great. Maybe I could figure out my issue. I work in tge field so I don't have regular access to IT.

Try this.

Under username, first name last initial. Like, marks for mark Smith.
I used webmail03.yourcomany.com. but it reverted to webmail02 on its own.
Yeah, so the issue is happening with my yahoo email now. It appears that in my case, the issue is with the phone or mail app. The funny thing though, is I can update manually with no problems. The phone is getting denied when it tries to pull the mail.

It's weird, they alternate not working. Earlier exchange was working but yahoo wasn't. Now yahoo is working, but exchange isn't. They both work when I manually refresh. When I get a chance, I'll uninstall. And reinstall.
have the same problem... anyone with the custom ROM has any issue with this.. on original ROM it does not want to connect.
If nothing helps, I have to install CUSTOM ROM... god dam, I thought that on LGG2 I will not have to do that.
I have had not had any issue with my MS Exchange account. Try leaving domain blank.and only using a server address. Also, sometimes I have seen usernames be 3 different formats that work on different set-ups. Try just the user name or the full e-mail as options as well.
