Email Anoying Me

Hi guys, I've had my HD2 for a few weeks now and i'm loving it (Just come from an iPhone aswell). But there are two things anoying me, and I want to fix them.
1. Is there anyway to stop the Squares showing in the Email preview, as far as I know they are image placeholders and they make the email preview look a mess.
2. Is there a way to download all the images in the email message automatically. Because at the moment its telling me its blocked due to privicy settings and I have to click to download them in every email..
Thanks for any help guys.

Hiya, that is annoying me too maybe it is a limitation of sense 2.5? and I am pretty certain the other bit about internet content being blocked such as pictures cannot be turned off.
I have tried this myself by downloading all the email +attachments but nothing so far works.
Anyone know a fix for these like the original poster commented on?

Yeah, I'd like to know if there's a reg hack or similar for that, does my head in as well. It completely spoils an otherwise very good email app

This looks like a font issue to me. Maybe there's characters in the emails that aren't in the font that the email preview tab uses. I don't know, but that's what it looks like.

You can't make it automatically download images for security reasons. Embedded images can be the cause of much spam, and can also be used (in rare cases) for spreading malware.
Also, the email application that you see when you click an email in the Sense UI is actually part of Windows, not Sense.
I'll be very suprised if you ever find a way to make it automatically download images, and I wouldn't want my phone to become virus-ridden so would never use it if it did exist.

The squares you see in the email preview are the symbols for the "enter" key.
When you get an email from someone that has more lines and that person pressed enter or more enters at the end of a line those enters end up being squares in the email preview.
Unfortunately you cant do anything about it. I'm a software developer and i know about this issue from my work. It's HTC's job to eliminate the squares and it has to be done in the code. We can't do it by ourselves.
I would love to have the images downloaded automatically as well, but Microsoft didn't provided an option for this. At least let us chose whether we want to be secure or not.

It's not that at all. It's any character that is not defined in the font that's used. If you like, I can take a screenshot of an email that is FULL of boxes, and I know for a fact that they're not all line breaks/page returns.
The enter key doesn't cause it, or you'd see it at the end of every line that has a line break/page return, and you don't. But anyway, this isn't resolving the issue, so I'll bow out

Yeah, i'm sure the font doesn't cover all the characters... well... its HTC's fault on this one.

Laying fault anywhere, whether correct or not, does not help these guys resolve the issues they've raised. Let's keep it on topic eh?

Well, i could suggest that someone with good knowledge of wm should look into the fonts being used in the emails. Maybe they can be changed. I'm sure new fonts can be installed but i don't know how to change them and where.
Its also possible that this issue is unsolvable because of the current coding of the email tab in sense. We need to know for sure what's causing the problem.

any follow up on this guys ?? would like to get it sorted

What exactly do you wish to change? Draw on the image please. It may be possible by editing the apk

Could it be to do with your version of Sense or something? Perhaps that's a version newer/older than yours (logically newer) and this isn't included in your version?

That should be easy enough, your arrows point to the little vertical bars on the far left, which most likely is a PNG image inside the apk, can you upload apk and i'll take a look see?

If I'm not mistaken it's supposed to be a UI feature of Sense, but for some reason nobody's been able to find it. Maybe it was part of the UI in a beta version but they simply forgot to add it in in the full version?

Is it a system apk? Or a third party one from the market? I didnt realise he was on sense. i thought it was like an email app he downloaded.

System apk (the stock Sense email app) and judging by the OP date and the bottom tabs it's for Froyo (not sure which one though)

Set Calendar Colors is a free app to do exactly this, change the colors of the accounts, calendars, tasks, etc

Excellent for calendars, but my e-mail accounts are still in the wrong colors it seems.

Apparently is not persistent. On the next calendar update, the colors also get reset (as far as I have seen so far).

Anyone have a fixed stock Mms.apk?

Hopefully this is the right spot for this, I'm working on just a super basic rom for myself. Was wondering if anyone had a Mms.apk that doesn't send long sms's as one thread. From what I've seen if someone sends a text message that is longer then 160 characters it tries to send it as one thread (like how it would work on a GSM network) instead of breaking it up into multiple sms messages which causes the person who it was sent to come out all funny like this.
"@ [email protected] (rN#Y!? i2N' ` #K9NQ t{&Az<[email protected] /g: Se hrN#T!7 iP q? IpO t{&Az<[email protected] /g: Se hrN#T!? i O p KK9^K p;NAz<[email protected] /g: Se hrN#T!? i O p #K9NE |{'K9 G } /g"
I know this can be fixed using handsent sms and in the settings change it so it breaks up the message. But was wondering if there was a modified stock Mms.apk floating around that I could just throw in /system/app.
Thanks!

Thanks for your prompt reply.
There is no way to change the app since it opens from gmail itself.
I don't want to change the rom as the user of this phone is not advance one (not me).
Thanks.
