hi all,
I can't seem to be able to use this app properly, especially for my hotmail... and we can't remove accounts, can we? HAHA.
it's like my hotmail reads 143/258, but i can't see the 143 new emails!
i keep getting stuck at end of july. I tried deleting some emails to see if it is a space limitation problem, but to no avail...
any idea anyone? or anyone has a better windows live hotmail app?
Bump.. And I can't view my junk folder from this app.

I am coming from an iPhone. I loved that you could organize the bookmarks in different folders. Is their a way to do that on the evo. And I would like to know is their a way to password protect a folder on main screen. And or put multiple folders in folders ?

My gmail has stopped opening attachments generated by office suite. When I click the attachment it kind like tries to open it but then comes back to the email.
Anyone else having this issue?

Did you remove quickoffice app? It's a stock app that some consider bloatware but opens MS office docs (Some roms remove it or move it to /data/app)
No, I still have it. Pdf and pictures work, just the office docs.

pdf and pictures open in different apps than office docs. It's friendly a quick office issue. Find it in settings/applications and clear data

Thanks, I tried but still nothing. It flashes for a second and then goes back to the email.
One way around it I figured was opening gmail in my browser and downloading the attachment that way. Not the most efficient but gets it done.
Thanks again.

Silly question, but have you tried restarting the phone since you first saw this problem manifest itself?
Nu
Just to be sure, I just cleared the data and rebooted my phone. Still the same issue, flashes a blank screen for a second and then back to the email view.

What if you use something like "download all files" or "download crutch" to grab it from the email and save it, then open it up with your desired program? Yeah it is an extra step but it might work. Never tried it myself.
Are these apps in the market? I will give it a shot.

I have noticed this issue as well but it was only for .rtf files, I am not sure what files you are trying to open but the Gmail app does not seem to like those. I typically open up .xls/x in HTML format.
So I was bored today and started digging around and happen to find something that is particularly disturbing IMO. Most settings for apps and system are stored in databases of course. Not going to name which particular files contain this but the passwords for pretty much all my accounts and various things are stored in plain text. With that said one could easily create script to drop on someone phone and pull all of their user names and passwords. This is a huge security flaw that could expose everyone's account information easily. Does anyone know if there is way we can get this information encrypted?

1) If you're out and about set a password
2) With the password set, turn off usb debuging
I'm confused. Please elaborate

Bravo: i think what he's trying to say is that if someone somehow made an app that also for some strange reason had access to that file... anyone installing that app would basically be voluntarily handing out their account details.
Wouldnt this be more of a MotoBlur issue? Since MotoBlur is the one that handles all that Facebook, Twitter, Myspace, Picasa, Photobucket, Email Accounts. I mean it is build into the phones custom UI.
Ok I must confirmed that also aosp email app does the same thing. I froze blur email and loaded gingerbread email and out shows the login info for my gmail and work exchange account

well to be honest you need root to get this files, and yes use sqlite in market version and you can see ALL apps and password , you can even edit it so maybe i will worry when you can have access to this without root. this isnt new, even you can check wpa_suplicant and check wifi password if you dont remember
Hi all
After updated to 4.2 I created new user for my wife.
"Installed" same games but they are 'new' for new user.
I want to copy data games files from my user to her user.
Anyone knows how to do it?
Need to be root?
Thanks

Assuming they are free games, as paid ones will need to be purchased twice. You can use titanium backup to back them up on your account and then restore them into her account. You do need to be root for titanium though.

Sorry - misinformation.
Paid apps do not need to be purchased twice, or restored into her user ID. That would be a really bad idea anyway - you would have two copies of the app.
With root use file explorer to find your save file under /sdcard/o/...something. Copy that file to an identical file structure under /sdcard/1, or whatever number your second user uses.
Apps done the correct way for multi-user never download a second copy. The Play store just sets a link to them in the main user.
Assuming app is available to both:
adb backup/restore might work for unrooted. Me, I'd Titanium Backup if it was important.
On a slight tangent, is there a shared data area that I could put shared files and videos that each user account would be able to view? If so do I need root access? Thanks.

Don't forget a shared data area would mean the contents, like high scores, are shared between the users.
Most of the time, different users will want their own customizable data.
Technically, you need to purchase the app twice for two different account under playstore, that's the whole purpose of multiuser right?

Multi-user is not a developer enrichment scheme.
Your tablet has one owner, and apps are sold to that owner on an account basis - not by user or device ID.
The owner is able to make them available to any other users of that tablet without repurchase.
I suppose you would want an eye sensor, to make sure the person using the app is the one that paid for it?
No need to pay twice.just install twice.
Seems I need root.
I used some file explorer, find this:
/storage/emulated
/storage/sdcard0
/sdcard
All seems point to the same folders.
No sdcard1.
More than this, can't find data game. I have to explain that I have free games (from play store) and paid games (humble pack). If I search imaginarium game with Astro, no resulta found -.-'
Pd: No root at this moment, original 4.2 room

Can you clarify this, apps are linked to the gmail account they were purchased with no? I haven't tried multiuser yet but I thought I read from others you have to add the primary gmail account to any secondary account to access the bought apps. Is this not correct? And if it is correct, can one add it only to google play and not have a secondary account access the associated email?

Set up a secondary user. Secondary user needs a Google account. Create a new one if appropriate.
Open Google Play on the secondary user. Click Options, then Add Account. Add your primary account (the one that owns your apps).
You will be given a choice of items to synch - uncheck them all. All you want is app access.
Display your apps (they are now visible to you). Install the ones you want the secondary user to have. They will NOT download - this user just gets a link.
When done, you can delete the main account from this user - or just leave it
I am going to start cutting and pasting this description - I keep having to retype it...

I appreciate that, I was just wondering whether there was a shared folder everyone could access as well as completely private areas for each user. Sounds as though there is absolutely no difference between multi user and having two completely separate tablets.
Well... Biggest difference is that only one copy of the app is shared by all the users.

Thanks, but one more thing. If I leave it in google play do they have access to the associated gmail? I would prefer to just leave it for future apps and add a password for google wallet so they can't purchase things. Hmm, I guess though they can uninstall things that I wouldn't want uninstalled. I"m thinking of a kid mucking about where he shouldn't.

You could try an 'app lock' app. i've tried 'app lock' on the play store which allows you to pin protect stuff like settings and install/uninstall and other apps - although couldn't lock gmail or certain system apps. But it should work for the play store. Maybe there are similar apps that allow you protect gmail.

Is it possible to move apps and its data from one user to another? To to so can I just uninstall app from first user? After that will this app and its data still be available for new user?

I tried to follow these instructions but a) I didn't get the sync message b) Play store doesn't display my bought apps in one place so it's not easy to find them and c) I have the feeling that it really double installs (I was hoping for a link).
