So, I'm running Tiamat 2.2.1 (Moray) and it's pretty nice. One thing, however, that I wasn't aware of before I flashed it, is that they removed the stock email client. I don't mean GMail, I mean the email client that you would use for accessing Exchange or some other "corporate" email server. Any suggestions as to how I get it back? Is there an APK for that?
I'm also running Moray and my email app is there and working as normal. Did you wipe before you flashed? Try wiping then flashing again.

No, I didn't wipe, the thread said you didn't need to...guess I'll be trying that...
I just flashed 2.2.1 and I have the email client, work just fine.

Well, I'm really confused, because I just wiped and re-installed, and about an hour later, and I still have no email client. I'll download a new version and try again.
I literally just got done wiping and re-installing and I still have no email client. Like I said, I have GMail and just about every other normal application, but no email. I also can't add a corporate email account. I didn't remove the email application (as far as I know), because I was actually using it. I just noticed one day that it wasn't notifying me of email when I knew I had email, so I decided to check things out. Sure enough, no email client.
just get it from the market
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think it's on the market. If it is, it's very buried. If it is on the market, do you have a link?
I've looked and looked and can't find the native email client anywhere (as I suspected). I'm not sure why it would be gone. I was using it and noticed that I wasn't receiving notifications, so I went to see if the account was set up. Of course, the account was gone, and there was no option to add a "corporate" account (or whatever it's called). I checked my apps to see if I could add an account that way (or see what was going on) and the app was gone. Until yesterday I didn't have the Pro version of Titanium Backup, so I wasn't able to freeze apps. Is it possible that there is no native email client in Moray and that you guys pulled it from a Titanium Backup? I've tried wiping (data, cache, Dalvik cache and I formatted /system) and re-installing, and that hasn't helped. Even before I restore my backup, there's no client.
I'm on moray 2.2.1 also and still have email and exchange. Here are my apks from my system/app folder.
email apk:

Thanks. I'm not sure what the deal was, but I ended up wiping and re-installing with a newly downloaded copy of Moray. I have the email client now, but I forgot to move my Titanium Backup over to the external SD card, so I lost everything. Oh well. The only thing I can think of, is that the second add-on (to replace the UA string) screwed something up. In the past, I was always putting that on, right after flashing the ROM. This time, however, I didn't do that. I can't imagine why that would make a difference, but I'm no expert.
I had some similar issues installing 2.2.1, make sure you have the latest CMW installed, it also won't wipe anything in your sd card directory when you perform a wipe.
I had some issues installing Tiamat with CMW 3.0 (which did see my external SD card), such as installing the mods to fix various issues, I also couldn't flash my Xoom properly. Installed the newest CMW 3.2.0.0 (R4c) for Xoom, everything works perfect now.

Earlier today I flashed Fresh 1.1 onto my phone.. I was having some issues with the Calendar syncing up so I unchecked the sync under Settings-Data Sync-Google and backed out of it. (this is where the problems began) I also went to Applications-Manage applications and cleared the cache/data out of the calendar, gmail and google apps. I have removed all of the sprint apps except nfl network (some before, some after Flashing 1.1)
Whenever I go back to Settings-Data Sync-Google or try to open up the market, gmail, calendar or any of the google services, it askes me to "set up my google account".. I click next and it goes to "setting up your Hero200" so I click sign in and type in my login info and I get the message: Can't establish a reliable data connection to the
server.This could be a temporary problem or your SIM card
may not be provisioned for data services. If continues,
call Customer Care. I do have a data connection because I browse on Dolphin, everything else works fin
I've rebooted, but not restored an earlier backup.. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks in advance and sorry for the long post...
are you on 3G or wifi?
WiFi, but I've tried it on 3g and it doesn't seem to make difference...
I read somewhere that someone manually set the APN for Sprint, does that make any sense to anyone?
I found this on another forum, can anyone confirm that this might help, or at least won't screw my phone up seriously if I try it:
"Is simple, but you need to be root and know how to play with the device: just delete the folder
/data/data/com.android.providers.settings and restart (before and after) and you can
use the wizard again."
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=3477
i'm not sure, but go to settings>about phone>system updates and try updating the Profile and the PRL. since you're rooted don't mess with the firmware or anything though.
Have you tried restoring your nandroid backup yet?
I updated the Profile and PRL and still no change. I haven't restored my backup, yet...
I'm seriously thinking about following the advise in the link above and deleting: /data/data/com.android.providers.settings and see if that helps.. If I do this and it still doesn't work, I can do my restore and try that and if all else fails, start all over.. Right?
Before I delete this file, I want to back it up on my SD Card, I just push it to the SD card, correct? The problem is, that I have no idea what's in that file, that's why I'm hesitant to do this.. If it does screw something up, a backup should restore this, correct?
Thanks!
Been there, done that, couldn't fix it. I'm convinced that doing the "clear data" for those apps is not a good idea.
I ended up restoring the Nandroid I took right before I cleared that info, then instead went online and changed my Gmail password. That forced me to run through the Google Account Setup wizard again, which actually worked fine.
Yeah, when I cleared that data it wiped all my contacts and everything... I changed my google password and I'm going to restore a backup and see what happens.... At least I should have my contacts back....
Ok, that worked (for now anyways!!) Thanks johnnythan!! I restored a Nandroid and it prompted me for my google password right away...
I'm still getting the calendar force close whenever it tries to sync (problem I was originally trying to fix) but I'll live with that for now... It seems to sync, but takes a couple tries after force closing...
Thanks, much better than starting over from a full reboot!!
have you tried flashing the unofficial modaco rom version 1.3a? If you flash it, and follow the instructions to clear the dalvik and boot cache it may take care of your problems.
I think I tried that in the Fresh1.1 PreKitchen and I don't believe it helped.. I'll defiantly keep that in mind if I have this issue again.. Thanks!
i was wondering if its possible to copy application data between wipe. e.g. right now i have k-9 mail set up for my work e-mail with all my appropriate settings and such. if i want to perform a wipe is there anyway i can backup all my settings for the app and restore them after perfoming a wipe and installing a new rom? my biggest annoyance right now is setting up all my apps again after switching roms.
my guess would be to just pull the .apk and .odex (if available) files from the app and push them back once the new ROM is installed.

Titanium Backup...its in the market. I would swear by it. I've never had to re-setup an app since I started using it. There is a free version and a donate version. The free version works great but its worth the donate if you can.
True, titanium back up is the best. You get every thing back. If your phone is rooted.
Will titanium work between frameworks? Say, swapping from Fresh 2.1 to Darch Legend
yes, it will. though it won't restore market links unless you pay for the donate version.
Hrm, it's popping an error:
"Busybox works but the "su" command does not elevate to root: "Whoami" reports "whoami: unknown uid 10091" instead of uid 0. I think your superuser whitelist system app does not work. Please check with your ROM provider."
Superuserpermission.apk fixes the uid issue. Search for it in a post from mercado79. The author of titanium knows the solution.

thanks guys ill check this out.
Yesterday, I installed my first NAND build on my hd2 (Pongster's Hyperdroid GBX). It's a great build, really, but when I wanted to add a few goodies to it (like a T9 dialer), the online market spat this at me:
"There are no Android phones associated with this account. Please sign in with a different account."
That never happened with any of the SD builds that I used previously.
I tried googling for a solution, I tried the suggested method of removing my phone number from google's password recovery service. No change.
The market works fine on my phone. Apps download and install with no problems (well, perhaps the download speeds aren't as fast as they could be on my wi-fi, but that's all). Gmail and contacts sync with no problem.
I tried clearing the market cache. Didn't work.
The only differences between this install are 1) This being Gingerbread, others being Froyo 2) NAND, others were SD 3) I used MyBackup Root instead of Titanium Backup
Any ideas?

when you used mybackup , did you make your backup apks and data? I have always encounter issues using data in my backup when moving to a different rom. I would suggest doing a new backup just with the apks, no data, backup your sms, and do a full wipe from task 29 and start fresh. I did this and got rid of 99% of my issues.
I suppose I'll try that...

well you don't have to try it if you don't want ! you didn't answer my question, did you backup data with mybackup?
Oh, sorry. Yes, I backed up APKs and data.
Well, I'll give it a shot. Strangely enough, a NAND install is easier than an SD one

it is, and even though I used to love having the choice of booting in to different sd builds(I used to keep like 3 or 4 in my sd at a time) I haven't looked back after I went nand. But trust me, task 29, install MGLDR, CWM, and flash fresh , just install apks and you should see the difference in apps and phone responding better.
And that did the trick. Google somehow sniffed out that I have a new ROM even before I set up my own account on the phone (something to do with SIM information or IMEI?).
Thanks for all your help roloracer.
Okay, so after my previous thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1080251
I backed up my sms using SMS Backup+ and backed up my SD card. I wiped my phone clean, unlocked the bootloader flashed CM 7.0.3. Didn't like it much. Read somewhere NSCollab looked more like stock and I liked the stock UI.
So installed NSCollab and I liked it. So I setup my wifi and add my google account and expect it to restore my apps but it doesn't. Its been 8 hours now and I don't see any positive chances of apps being restored. Although I have appbrain, it requires me to go to each app individually and click on restore.
Restoring from .apk files I had backup using astro would make the apps not-linked to market, so I won't be notified of their updates (Or am I wrong?).
I missed a little detail here.. When I installed and booted CM 7.0.3, the market started restoring the apps but since I didn't like the UI, I switched off the wifi and flashed NSCollab interrupting the restoring process. But I don't think it would matter.
So the question is, is there any way to force restore my apps and settings from google's servers? Also, is it possible to install apps from .apk files and receive updates from the market?
I've noticed that sometimes I have to go to downloads in the app market and until I do the apps don't automatically restore themselves. Once I go to downloads they all start downloading.
I bought a Desire Z about two weeks before the 1.72.405.2 OTA update came along, and I allowed it to update (Yeah I know, this was after all my first Android device).
Anyway, lately my phones been running slowly and apps force closing, so I've decided to downgrade it and root it (psneuter method), and try some different ROM's.
What I was wondering is, what would be the best way without root, to backup as much of my data as possible, apps, sms, files, and also if possible a backup that I can use in case I scew it up, so I can get it back to the way it is now.
I have a copy of:-
RUU_Vision_HTC_WWE_1.34.405.5_Radio_12.28b.60.140e_26.03.02.26_M_release_155556_signed
which I believe is the stock ROM for this device, but as far as I know if it goes wrong I'll be unable to flash this as the update won't allow me to flash an earlier version..
Would I be able to mount and then backup the whole phone using adb or any other method.
I've been reading about it for a while now, and while I have lots of bits of information, I've been unable to find a good solution.
Thanks,
...John...

Without root, a good app to backup your other apps is astro file manager, its available free from the market, you just have to hit menu, tools and it'll back up all the apps on your sd card, in terms of files, just make sure their all on your sd card and they'll be fine
Not sure how to back up SmS but i know their are apps out their, a point you may have forgotten is to make sure you back up your contacts as they all get wiped and I made this mistake, the easiest way to do that is to make sure your contacts sync up with your google account so after rooting, you can just sync them back,
Hope i helped!
Use google to remember what apps you've downloaded from market. Once associated, when you flash a new rom, google will automatically redownload all your associated apps. For sms, i suggest you download GoSMS and use their internal backup feature. It will save to sd and be visible to your stock sms app as well on restore.

Ya but too many times google starts restoring apps that I uninstalled months ago. Great idea but bad implementation imo.

Sorry I haven't replied, was in work all day yesterday.
I have Astro File Manager, but I hadn't even considered it, thanks. I have my contacts sync'd with Google, so it seems that as long as I backup my files and sms everything else should be done automatically anyway.
Go SMS seems worth getting anyway, as the bog standard Android messages app is seriously dull. I'll give it a try.
I had wondered about Google Market restoring apps, but I thought it would only reinstall apps that were installed at the last sync.
If you install an app and it screws up your phone, and do a factory reset then Google will just reinstall the app that caused all the problems in the first place.
Definitely a good idea, but needs more work.
Anyway, thanks for all the info, I'll give it try tonight, when I get back from work.

I find SMS Backup & Restore to be the best app for this purpose and I wouldn't recommend the backup feature from the market, as you said it is likely to give problems.
Without root though, the backup choices are somewhat limited for apps and such.
I've been using Super Manager by gpc. It works pretty good, plus offers a ton of other features that can be used with or without root.
I've backed up what I could, although it's typical that as soon as it's all gone I realised things that I should have wrote down (I had been using the wallet/pocket app and although I backed up all my apps, I'm guesing it won't have backed up any of the passwords, logins, bank details, etc).
Anyway, I've downgraded and successfully rooted my phone (through gfree), I have CID: 11111111 and S-Off, but I haven't installed and ROM's yet as I read somewhere that you are supposed to wipe everything between ROM's, am I wiping the Davlik cache or doing a factory reset (I mean won't the factory reset just reset my stock ROM back to it's original condition).
I'm also wondering about finding custom ROMs, on my dell streak I had installed ROM Manager and could get a list of any that were available.
I first installed ROM Manager and used it to flash recovery, but this time I've installed CWM first, so would it be safe to install ROM Manager now, will it want to flash a recovery over the one I have already.
Or is it not advisable to use ROM Manager, as I have previously heard of a few problems it may cause.
Thanks ...John...
Rom manager shouldn't give any problems, but for custom roms it's best to take a look at the development forum. If you don't like that you can still use the list in rommanager, it might be just me who prefers downloading roms to my pc first.
But before you install any of them I recommend you make a nandroid backup from recovery just to be safe.
I think the issues were that some people, not all, found problems flashing some of the gingerbread roms via Rom manager. Better to save the Rom to SD and then flash it via CWM.
Right I've done a nandroid backup, and I've saved one to another mSD card which I can keep somewhere just in case (probably a bit over cautious, but...).
I thought that by saving apps to an sd card, they would run from the sd when I restarted my phone, even the ones that I had moved previously with the application manager in settings are not seen.
Still reinstalling the ones I want isn't really that bad.
Seriously, somebody needs to sort out the Markets app backups feature, when I was setting up the phone at first, I specifically chose to not automatically sync with Google and that I would do it manually when needed. Then I went in to the market to get a file manager and the download failed, it was only when I looked at what was going on I realised it was already downloading and reinstalling 96 apps. I looked around for a 'cancel all' option and there isn't any, so I had to cancel them all one by one and then uninstall the ones that had managed to install.
A simple checklist to select the apps you want would be great, oh, and a cancel all button would be a bonus.
Anyway, things are not as much fun when they're too easy.
Thanks ...John...
