App Mail - OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
which mail program used ??
I'm looking for a way to install a K-9 mail because i can't install!
Do you have suggestions ?
Thanks guys!

I've installed CM12.1 temporarily and extracted the Email.apk and Exchange2.apk. Works fine with OxygenOS after uninstalling the preinstalled Exchange Services (system app, so root access needed).

Using AquaMail for a long time now, works great on Oxygen too, including Exchange support. It has a paid version though if you want to use more than four Mail accounts.

Tried em all..Boxer on CM is great, but on Oxygen, Nine is the way to go imo

How you have installed these apk?
Root explorer to copy, paste and give permission?l

No, normal install by launching the apk (having enabled 'Unknown sources' in security settings).

Ok THX.

My absolute favorite mail is Type Mail, or the other version with a different name, icon and notification: Blue Mail. Exact same app, just those aesthetic slightly differences.
It's free in the app store and can handle multiple accounts and has a dark mode with some theme options. Very nice.

Fix for Getting Google Contacts/Calendars Syncing (TNTLite)

Note: As of TNTLite 2.1.1 (a supplemental install to TNTLite 2.0), you no longer need to follow the instructions in this thread to get your Google Calendar and Contacts to sync with your tablet, because the Calendar and Contacts applications and the necessary sync files have now been included with the TNTLite supplemental. In order to get the sync working, though, you will need to wipe your user data in clockworkmod, so that you go through the Google account set-up process again. WIPING YOUR USER DATA IN CLOCKWORKMOD DELETES ALL INSTALLED APPS AND SETTINGS. Use Titanium Backup to backup your apps before doing this. (Data copied to the internal sdcard is not deleted in a data wipe.)
Go to this thread for the TNTLite download, and for more information:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=842004
******************************************
Old instructions, for pre-TNTLite 2.1.1:
This has been driving me insane for the past week--the gTablet with TNTLite was 90% of what I wanted, but the lack of a real sync with my Google contacts and calendar data has been gnawing at me. (The workaround of installing a Google account as a "Corporate" account in Contacts didn't work for me, because I have multiple Google calendars and that approach would only ever sync one.)
But I seem to have found out how to make it work! Alas, it requires a user data wipe, but to me at least it was worth it. Here's what I did.
* This was starting with TNTLite 2.02 along with the Tegra Fix *
First off, I backed up everything with Titanium Backup and also cwm. (You'll definitely want Clockwork Mod installed: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=842004)
Get the GApps v2 file, and copy it as an update.zip to your /sdcard: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=842590
Shut down, and boot into Clockwork Mod.
Wipe cache. Don't reboot.
Clear user data/factory reset. Don't reboot.
Install the Gapps v2 update.zip that you copied to /sdcard.
Reboot.
Skip the Google sign-in.
Set up your Wi-Fi.
Reboot.
Launch Gmail.
Add your Google Account (Accounts / Add Account). Break into a big smile when you see Contacts and Calendar show up as a sync option in addition to Gmail. Let them sync. It may take a while.
If you have a Google Apps account too, while still in Gmail, go back to Accounts and then Add Account, and add your Google Apps account. Break into an even bigger smile when you see Contacts and Calendar show up as a sync option. Let them sync. Go into the Contacts app, and verify that your contacts are all there. (You can use the Display options to show/hide them.)
[Strangely enough, at this point, I found out that the Calendar app was nowhere to be found on my tablet. Probably due to my screwing around before I started trying this out. I extracted calendar.apk from the TNTLite 2.00 update.zip, copied it to my /sdcard, and launched it. It installed, and there were allllll of my calendars. This probably won't be an issue for you.]
If you go into the Contacts app, you'll see under Add New Account that "Google" now appears, as does "Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync" (instead of just "Corporate").
At this point, I took a deep breath and did the Market Fix (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=845175), worried that it might somehow mess with the settings. Rebooted.
And my many calendars and all my contacts are still there, and the correct Account/Sync options are still in place as well.
Now I have to start reinstalling everything (thank you, Titanium Backup), but I've got the last piece of my gTablet puzzle.
Hope this helps other folks like me who've had this problem. It seems that the most important thing is to have the Gapps files already in place when you do the initial user setup under TNTLite. Since Gapps has an older version of Google Maps (and Street View), you'll want to update both of those in the Market. And then you'll need to do the Flash install, etc. etc.
(Dec. 1 update)
Note: If you install a supplemental update to TNTLite after doing this fix (i.e., installing 2.0.4), you're going to get the TNT Calendar back, overwriting the Google Calendar. Your data will still be there, and syncing will still work, but you'll have the less-professional-looking TNT Calendar interface. You can install Touch Pro Beta from the Market for a nicer replacement calendar.
Nice work, and well done!
How is the calendar from the GApps v2 file? Is it stock Google?

Thanks! There actually isn't a calendar in the GApps v2 file, now that I look. It's just the SyncAdapter.apk. (Ditto for the Contacts.) So actually the problem with my not having the calendar.apk may just have been from when I was screwing around trying to get things to work before I started all of this. A clean TNTLite 2.0 install followed immediately by the instructions above will probably have a calendar.apk file with no problem.
Seems we only need a few of the apks in the update to get this running. Maybe get with Roebeet to add those to tnt lite or as a supliment.

Yes, it might work to have just the two Google*SyncAdapter.apk files included in the main TNTLite install (not a supplement). They need to be there during the initial setup.

You can get them out of the Gapps update.zip file, in the app subfolder (link to the file is in the original post). They would go in /system/app, but if you're not rooted, you're not going to be able to put them there. And I'm not altogether sure it would work this way, and you're still going to have to wipe your user data and cache to try. So you should just go ahead and install cwm--the link is in the OP. (You should have cwm installed anyway, even if you're not going to do this.)

Thanks. Just to be sure: which cache are you referring to?
When you speak of cache I'm thinking about settings>running application and then clear the cache of individual apps, but perhaps you're referring to something else. And if we're talking about the same thing: the app of which app?
I can confirm that this works great.
Good work!!

Exchange contacts and calendar
Google contacts and calendar sync properly but exchange contacts and calendar do not. Any suggestions for exchange users?

I don't use Exchange, so I don't have much advice, sorry to say. After the steps above, did you go into Contacts, Accounts, Add Accounts, and choose Microsoft Exchange Sync? Are you on TNTLite 2.0.2 or above, which returns to the TNT contacts and calendar apps that some people say work better with Exchange?
Also, a reminder that installing TNTLite 2.0.2 and above may cause your Google Calendar app (from 2.0 and GApps) to not work quite right, since 2.0.2+ reverts to the TNT calendar that the tablet came with. I just installed 2.0.4, and my calendar opens and the data is there, but I can't see any menus or change any views. I have calendar.apk from TNTLite saved in /sdcard, and I just launched/reinstalled, and I'm back to the regular Android/Google calendar. (Am trying to download Touch Calendar, but the market is sooooo slow on downloads tonight.)
Thank you!! Now this is a complete ROM.

After the steps above, I added an Exchange email account which automatically setup the same account in Contacts. I've verified that the Microsoft Exchange Sync is checked/enabled.
Application "Settings" is Force Closing often now. Will revert back to TNTLite 2.0.2 and play with this again later.
Thanks for the effort and I'll keep searching for an Exchange solution.

Pull it out of the TNTLite 2.0 update.zip, in the /app subfolder. Just put it somewhere on your SD card, and launch it.
I do have Settings FCs, but only when I'm closing Settings, after I'm done using it, so I haven't minded.
Argh! Didn't see this until just now -- 2.0.5???? Oh my.
Also, Touch Calendar (beta) in the market is a pretty sweet calendar display app. Not sure if you need the Google calendar apk installed as well, but give it a look. Does a great job displaying lots of entries from lots of calendars, with pinch-zoom for changing views.

I do think it would be a good addition, if you're not worn out. The real Google calendar/contact sync is a big plus, though I know you've said you don't use it.

[MOD] Sense 3.0 Mail.apk with exchange pin security disabled

Alright kids, after much trial and error, here is a working Sense 3.0 Mail.apk with exchange pin security disabled for those who hate entering a pin every time they want to unlock their phone.
Other Sense 3.0 ROMs have successfully cracked their Mail.apks to get around this, but none of them ever worked properly with the Thunderbolt... but our wait is finally over
I made sure to mod the apk to disable ONLY the pin security while leaving all other security measures intact
INSTRUCTIONS (it's also never a bad idea to make a nandroid backup first):
For the Mail.apk
1) Download the attached Mail.apk
2) Mount the system as R/W (either using Root Explorer or 'adb remount')
3) Copy the new Mail.apk to system/app via root explorer and overwrite the older file when it asks, or push the file to system/app via adb
4) Set permissions as rw-r--r--
5) Reboot
6) After reboot, open up the Mail app and set up your exchange account all the way through naming the account, then hit 'Finish Setup'
7) You will be prompted to enable security policy... this is normal so hit 'OK'
8) You will get to another screen asking you to activate security policies... again, this is normal so select 'Activate'. From here on out you will never be prompted to enter a pin
9) Profit!
For the PatchedMail.zip
1) Download the .zip and toss it on your SD card
2) Reboot into CWM
3) WIPE DALVIK-CACHE!!! (Won't work properly if you don't do this)
4) Install the .zip then reboot
5) Follow steps 6-9 above
If you have issues, try clearing dalvik-cache when installing
NOTE: This only works with Sense 3.0, it will not work if trying to flash over the Sense 2.0/1 Mail.apk. And yes, this IS working on Gingerbread ROMs
Enjoy!
Love it! Too bad I am running the ofmgb ROM

Where can I get this for a non sense ROM?

Does this app have both security check-box options that come in the stock Email.apk app?
"Use secure connection (SSL)"
"Accept all SSL certificates"
I need both checked (and available) to access my work exchange server, and the Sense MAIL.apk doesn't include the latter check box, for some kooky reason.
Thanks!
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you. I've been waiting for this for a while. I was using Touchdown but that sucks, lol. Thanks again.

This is still the Sense Mail.apk, I just edited the smails in the apk to return the pin security whenever the app requests it. You won't gain any new functionality with this mod so the 'use secure ssl' option is still the only one that shows up
Do you know if this apk can be used on an Evo 4G with Gingerbread? The Sense 3.0 mail that comes with the Evo 3D is the only one that can do push Hotmail in HTML (other than TouchDown). Thanks.
Thank you so much!
Will this also fix the problem I have with not having Exchange emails pushed as frequently as they are on Froyo?

I don't see how. This just circumvents the pin or password policy pushed by exchange admins.
I just wanna throw this out there for some people.
PLEASE KNOW/UNDERSTAND your security policies at work, using this mod could/may be grounds for termination or civil penalties by your Employer.
Is anyone having problems with the setting for HTML emails as default sticking? It will stay for a bit but then later in the day it will be on plain text.

Crap this hack doesn't work on the bamf 2.3 side project. It forces closes when trying to add an account.

Sorry for the dumb question. What is the difference between the Mail.apk and PatchedMail.apk?
Im guessing that Mail.apk replaces the native app while PatchedMail.apk patches the native app. Is that right?

I finally tried mail.apk with my Tbolt running NonS3ns3. First, the list of mail providers was blank when the app first started. I was able to select the 1st slot which was the one for AES. Then I got a forced closed when I tried to configure my Exchange server.
I thought NonS3ns3 was a Sense ROM and that the modified mail.apk would work.
Any suggestions?
Switched to BAMF Forever 1.0.6 ROM and was able to use this modded mail.apk package.

[Google Apps] Without Rooting Kindle Fire 6.2.1

It is totally possible to sideload google apps without Rooting on version 6.2.1. It is a fairly simple process but needs to be done in the correct order.
1.Open Settings
2. Select Device
3. Turn on Allow Installation of Applications from Unknown Sources
4. Download GoogleServicesFramework.apk and install. You need to download the correct version or it will not install. I apologize for not having the version number but currently it can be found @ www.mediafire.com/?4ykd6rdikmz5l8c
6.Download books.apk - Do Not Open
7. Reboot
8. Open Books and add google account. This even works with multiple accounts.
9. Shortly after you should have a notification requesting permission of your google account. Click allow.
10. Sideload Google apps of your choice. See below for options.
Google Apps that work
Google Music
Google +
Google Books
others...
Sideloading Google Apps
1.Sideloading Google app of your choice
1a.Find on filesharing website i.e. 4shared.com, filestube.com, etc.
1b. Backup from another device and use drop box to access
1c. Transferring apk via USB
2. Open .apk file and click install
This will work flawlessly if done in the right order. Remember GoogleServicesFramework.apk install, books.apk, reboot , open books , add account, and voila.
If I have helped you please thank me.
Enjoy.....

Thanks, that's great news since I'm getting one for Christmas and I just read Amazon is forcing that update :/
6.2
Will this also work with 6.2?
install lookoutsecurity before installing apps from third party warez sites............or just root it and use android market
This is fantastic. Once I have books installed and my gmail account synced, will I be able to just grab a Market apk to sideload and then get everything I want from the Market?
I've been back and forth between the Nook Tablet and the Kindle Fire as my cheap tablet to buy, and the Nook Tablet took a big hit when they disabled sideloading. I think the Kindle Fire is popular enough that it will also be a target for an official CM9 release as the CM9 project gains steam.

The subject of the thread is wrong Misleading.
You can't install the GoogleServicesFramework.apk into /system/app where it needs to be in order for it to work without having root access.
Update:
You need that GoogleServicesFramework.apk to do things like Android Market, Gmail etc...
You can only install a few google apps without root access. The Market Place requires root access, which you can't get with the latest version of the kindle software (6.2.1)
If you are rooted and have Market already installed, will today's update make Market stop working?
If you have GoogleServicesFramework.apk installed, will that cease to function?

Depends how you installed/updated it. All files in /system/app get replaced. If you installed the market place and it has since updated itself (installing to a different location that doesn't get cleared with the update) then you should be okay. Had a fresh install of the Market Place following online guides to copy it into /system/app then a good chance it will stop working.

Until I ran the GoogleServicesFramework.apk I didn't get the bootup error. I ran the installer from the sdcard, previously (with root access) I was able to copy and run it from '/system/app' which I think makes all the difference.

Does your Gmail still update itself and show new email notifications without you having to open gmail and manually refresh? I think though Gmail still runs the service that runs in the background has stopped post update.

Your correct. Gmail no longer auto updates. When opened it shows "no conversations." Thanks for your reply.
I had 6.2 rooted but got updated to 6.2.1 even I amended the hosts file and rename the Silent apk to bak, also with TWRP 2.0 installed. Anyway, I re-install the GoogleServicesFramework.apk, and I can access the Android Market again.
I tried to use the GoogleServicesFramework.apk link provided in this thread, but it didn't work. The original one worked, so I am happy to be able to access the Android Market again.
didnt work for me
Very important! it now works, u must have the right google frameworks, if it installs u have right one. Then dont use the vending apk, i use the apk that said market apk and it worked perfectly, market now works.

[Q] How to sync contacts?

I'm using the standard Kindle Fire email app. When I go to add a contact, I get a menu with my two email accounts listed and below both it says, "Device-only, unsynced".
How do I make it so it does sync? I've imported all my contacts manually, but I'd like to it to sync to my gmail or yahoo contacts the way any other email/contact manager does. How do I change from device-only to synced? Long press on the account name does nothing and the menu button does nothing at that point.
I've got the exact same question, replying to get it "bumped" back up in the thread.
Even by going to the Accounts & sync settings (Gmail > Menu > Accounts > Menu > Account settings > my gmail account ) I see all the other options (Docs, Reader, Currents, Music, Instant Upload, Google+, Books, Gmail, Picasa Web Albums, Calendar) everything except contacts. All my other apps work fine, Market, Calendar, Currents, etc.
I've tried everything, copied GoogleContactsSyncAdapter.apk into System/app, even copied over contacts.apk and contactsprovider.apk and it was not very happy so I reverted back to the original system files (it instantly rebooted and when it came up again didn't seem very happy and a bunch of random stuff started force closing).
System is 6.2.1 rooted via BurritoRoot.
I've somehow got mine syncing fine now. I'm not sure but suspect it was the syncsettings.apk I installed that gives you the normal system sync menu access plus putting googlecontactssyncadaptor.apk in /system/app. Now with the calendar sync adaptor and a calendar.apk everything appears to sync.

When I installed Gmail off Android Market, it synced all my contacts from my phone to my Kindle Fire.
What about if I'm on cm7 how would ibsync contacts

OK, I finally figured it out what was the issue. After doing a full wipe and restore of stock Fire 6.2.1. and rerooting again, it appears the GoogleContactsSyncAdapter.apk I was using from my stock Nexus S i9020A on 2.3.4 was the one that was not behaving, soon as I downloaded another apk from the forum here, it worked beautifully. just copy it to system/app and change permissions to match the others rw-r--r--

Can you share what apk you downloaded from the forum? I've tried several, and it's still not working for me. Any help would be appreciated.

How can I view files on another user account?

I'm a new Nexus 10 owner. Just rooted, flashed a rom, and set up my tablet.
Now, I want to set up another account for a friend. I did it but didn't realize that the file system is completely different. If I add a file in my account it can't be accessed from the other account. This isn't what I was expecting.
Is there any way to access the same files/apps with different user accounts?
Root explorer? Or any other explorer which can browse root folders.
Beamed from my CM10.1 Galaxy Nexus
1. Do you know what directory it would be in?
2. I'm using Solid Explorer, but on the other account it's saying I cant view certain folders because it isn't rooted. But on my main account I'm rooted and running AOSPA
edit: On my second account, it is NOT rooted! IDK why because my main account is rooted. How can I root both user accounts?

Look in /data/media. There are subdirectories with numbers for names: 0 is the "owner" user, and additional users count up from 1.

Rooting is a systemwide thing, not specific to a user, but root apps generally default to only granting access to the "owner" user. Look around in the settings for your root app; there should be an option to allow other users to access root as well. In SuperSU, for example, there's a checkbox on the settings page labeled "enable multi-user".
Thanks so much Wyzard! Works great now!
But is it possible to share apps between the 2 accounts? EX: install plants vz zombies without having to install it on both accounts?
edit: even though i can use a file explore to browse another accounts files, I tried opening an .apk but there was an error. I guess you cant share .apks

You can copy the apk to the android/data folder because it is tge same for all users and install from there

If you're installing from the Play store, it doesn't actually download it again, and "installing" the same app on a 2nd user won't take up much more space (only the additional app data specific to the 2nd user).

That's for the play store, what if I use an apk in my sd card?
Will it be installed twice?
No as long as it's the same apk I think because it makes it like a shortcut icon.

1) You can share the applications with https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fivehellions.android.muappshare&referrer=utm_source%3Dsocial%26utm_medium%3Dforum%26utm_campaign%3Dapp_announcement (root required)
2) You can share files by putting them into /sdcard/Android/obb folder (even media scanner looks into that folder so you can store your photos, videos and music there). In case you are having a hard time accessing the OBB folder via ADB (for instace), go there via /mnt/shell folder
Cheers!
I used that app and it works great.
But I installed plants vs zombies on my main account, when I play it on the second it says I need to download the data which is around 150mb. I'm not sure we're the data is stored in the main account.
I want to be able to play the same game on different accounts and have different saved games. For example, my account will be on level 2 and the other account on level 12. Is this possible?
The data should be under android/data and yes it is possible because I did that with gta vice city and it worked fine and you shouldn't need to redownload the data
