If you had/have an existing Gmail account setup using Exchange before (I think) 30 Jan 2013 then it'll stay that way and continue working. If you get a new phone or have to re set it up you won't be able to use the push exchange option.
For some reason my phone isn't syncing my gmail unless I actually go to settings and click on Sync Now... but I have to do that everytime I wanna check my email
Any solutions?

Would like to know this too. In the meantime search for an xposed mod. Notification mod. This one allows you to use the notification pulldown.
Helps a lot.

Did you try new Google KitKat email app? Make sure that you install both Email and Exchange 2 email apk.

the easy answer is to use enhanced email, can be found in Google Play. I am using that myself

Best most money on an app spent!.... NOT...DOESN'T WORK IN MY CASE...
And you know 15 minutes are not enough to even try it due to the options and testing and hoping. Bought it long ago. In my case it didn't work...
Company has its own app. And another 2 apps checking if the app is admin etc.
Only thing that could be done is either to input the pass automatically when I unlock the phone. Maybe something via xposed. And add a second screen unlock option.
Somewhat like the iPhone jailbreak has it...loved the security bypass plus android pattern unlock....

It depends obviously then on how the exchange server is configured. In my case e-email bypasses the security demands from the exchange server completely. When I had my HTC sensation, I used a mod you can find in the HTC sensation development, search for exchange - there is also something about using it with other phones.
see this post for files/kudos: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=47063058&postcount=406
however, you don't need to push via ADB or anything:
1) uninstall your current email and exchange apks (via titanium backup or something similar)
2) either wipe dalvik cache or delete the associated email and exchange odex files in /data/dalvik-cache
3) install the 2 APKs (i usually install exchange first, then email)
4) setup your email
been working perfectly for me for the past week.
EDIT: this is the new 4.4 email/exchange, btw, with the gmail-style interface. it's fantastic.
I would really like to find a way to dodge the lockscreen and other policies that are enforced by Exchange. I don't want to use the KK email.
I use an app called Keystore Unlocker from the play store...must be rooted. You can skip the step adding a VPN and it will still work.

If you are just trying to get past the pin/password requirement this app stores it so you don't have to enter it when unlocking your phone. Not sure if it works for PIN security but it works for PASSWORD security.
Follow these steps:
1. Open app and click on Credentials store password (enter your lockscreen password)
2. Click Try to unlock
3. Check Auto Unlock
4. Click VPN w/o password for >=4.0
5. On the next screen click on # 3. Press Here (to remove phone lock)
That should do it and remove the lockscreen password that exchange forces you to use.

Have you tried simply increasing the lock timer to, say, 30 min?
I find I don't often have to enter the PIN with it set high like this.

real quick- you do realize that the kitkat email that i posted is in fact modded to dodge those policies, yes? that was why i posted it. install them, set up your account - it will still tell you "your account needs some extra settings" blah, but it won't actually enforce them.
if you're talking about wanting to use the LG email app, well, i don't believe anyone has made a mod for that. i find the new kitkat email app superior anyways, so if you're willing to try it, that is a solution.

You technically shouldn't need to in order to set it up, but it's not a bad idea to make a nandroid. And it'll make the dalvik wipe/odex removal easier. That part may not even be necessary, but I had some issues the first time installing it where Exchange Services started force closing repeatedly.

This is a horrible feature if true, if your phone is stolen the thief can reset it and have a brand new phone like he got it out of the shop
Well by reporting it stolen it would be known to carriers as a stolen phone and the IMEI would be registered
This has already been discussed in depth including the option to disable it. When the security of the data on the device is more important than the device itself, the feature is a wanted/required one. Most people would rather the phone not self destruct though.

Unknown, I can only confirm the Verizon variant. It appears to be an android setting though not an HTC centric one.

You only really get it if you're using Exchange as email. I never had this "8 tries left before resetting phone" until I added my work email. If you have your work email and this is happening to you it's probably because your work requires that level of security. If you want to avoid it, just don't add your work email. There are ways to bypass it if you root, however some times (depending on admins) your job's IT dept can tell and you may have issues keeping said job.

Yeah I'd bet you anything that's what it is. My previous job used exchange as well but they did not have security enabled. As soon as I moved into my new job I had to set up a pin. It's a choice your employer's IT dept does whether by regulation or just more security-aware.

Hi all,
I am still waiting for my Nexus to arrive and will need AirWatch connect to my employer's Exchange. Does Marshmallow or Huawei have an official agent to allow native email client use without bloody TouchDown?
Thanks.
My company also uses AirWatch. Like the Nexus 6, there is not a native email client outside of adding POP/IMAP/Exchange accounts in Gmail.
I am forced to used the Inbox by AirWatch app which is pretty terrible. Also, when your IT department sets up your phone it requires special permissions on their end to use the app. Make sure you request them.
On the plus side, AirWatch has no problems using the fingerprint scanned as a secure method to unlock your phone.
Happy to help if you have any other questions.
Yeah, just tested everything and need to use Touchdown.

We are apparently going to Airwatch next month... The airwatch client gets terrible reviews and while Touchdown isn't ideal, I've used it before and I can live with it. Did you have to do anything special to get Touchdown to work with Airwatch?
No, we have an automated policy which downloads and configures Touchdown for us. No issues. I just wish Touchdown would integrate into the native calender... The rest is ok.

Same here. Your enterprise should have it set up so that TD more or less configures automatically once you've enrolled the device through AirWatch.
Now, my big question is whether it will continue to work if I'm rooted. I never had a problem in the past, but recently when I upgraded my old rooted Nexus 5 to Android 6.0 and then re-rooted it, I lost the ability to enroll with AirWatch. I'm not sure what happened but I know Airwatch doesn't want your phone to be rooted.

Give Nine Mail a try...much better than touchdown IMO and works with AirWatch. You will need to manually configure the settings (mostly the server address) but its pretty simple.
I tried it before but our corporate policy did not allow the connection. I assume based on the user agent ir similar identification of the mail client.

Only way I found was to use Xposed and the Unwatch module ...also it failed until I went with systemless root. Using Nine Mail and it is flawless.
Root cloak did not work and I am going to try to never update the Airwatch app as who knows if it will keep working.

I have the most recent version of Airwatch and Unwatch Xposed module and I can get passed the root check. My company specifically blocks Nine from working though.
The Nexus 6p has an Exchange email setup built in. See the link below:
http://support.sprint.com/support/t.../WScenario_542_62075_771_en_118-dvc9700001prd
My company also blocks that
So if neither of those work for you, you may be stuck with Touchdown as well.
Update: Aquamail and Boomerang work for me. I'm using Aquamail since it seems to work with Google calendar.

Hi there.
Sorry, could you please clarify how you made Nine work with Airwatch?
My company just enforced Airwatch this month so my Nine client stopped syncing... what would I need to do? The server address I was previously using doesn't seem to be working anymore.
I'm desperate to know this since the "Airwatch Inbox" app is utter crap.
Also, is there any way to get the calendar synced with other app than this "Airwatch Calendar" bull****? I really want to have a homescreen widget showing my upcoming meetings, but I can no longer do that since 3rd party apps can't access my work calendar anymore.
Any help would be really appreciated.

First I used systemless root ...but not a ROM with systemless root included, that failed. Flashed to stock and then systemless rooted. Installed Xposed and then UnWatch. Then Nine, then Airwatch.
My Nine settings are attached below. You want to use your official outlook name email for the domain/user and then insert your company email alias after the awmdm in the server line.
For the calendar I didn't have to do anything other than choose to sync calendar in Nine. Then I added the pure calendar widget and have a scrolling view of all outlook and Google appointments.
I was petrified of flashing the update to the March security update...but it worked. I have not, and will not update airwatch until something breaks.
Hope this helps. If I can answer anything else, Lmk.

Question: the whole flashing and unflashing of everything was just to be able to use root, right?
I'm OK with not having root for now - all I really want is to use Nine instead of this crappy Airwatch Inbox app.
I've checked said Airwatch Inbox app, and the server settings are the same as they were before. So not vmdm.XXXXX.com like in your screenshot, but the same email server we were using before. However that fails in Nine now.
I've also checked the enrollment status in the "Airwatch Agent" app, and ironically it does show vmdm.XXXXX.com in there as the server.
Sounds to me like your company didn't really restrict the use of third party apps maybe?

Good question... I'm not sure how restrictive they are...most of our firm uses IPhones so I was lone wolfing a lot of this. I emailed the developer of Nine and they said it should work without any issues. I also never installed the inbox app...only the airwatch app and just plugged the settings into Nine.
In all honestly though, I don't think I tried nine without being rooted and using the UnWatch xposed module...that may be a requirement. I knew I wanted root so I may have only gone that route.

Yeah I also emailed Nine devs. They told me that IF our AirWatch solution is "based" on Android for Work, I could just install this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ninefolders.hd3.work, and it should work.
But I don't even know how to check if they're using Android for Work.
That app just tells me that a configuration file is needed, and I can't enter any login details on it.
I'll keep talking to the devs and I'll try to speak to someone in our IT department as well... ahh the perks of working for a huge multinational company. The person in charge of this probably lives somewhere with an 8 hour time difference with me, and a salary of $3 per hour.

Which Email app are you referring to? I don't think there was a specific one for AOSP... If you hate using Gmail app for Google Mail try Inbox. It took a little getting used to but I can't use Gmail anymore on my desktop or phone.

Maybe try using an older version on the site. Uninstall first then downgrade (a few downgrade if needed) and see if it still does. Could be something they added in the app when they were moving away from AOSP originally. Otherwise you may be SOL.

I use Nine, as already mentioned, which is great because it can contain a work Office 365/Exchange administrator's access to control your phone, to just within the app. Nine also syncs calendars well, which I really like. I also really like AquaMail. Both apps do fine with Google, Outlook, Yahoo, IMAP, etc.

Is this better than Outlook for Android? Is there anything that will combine one nice email app into one, for both personal and work email? Gmail sucked for my work email as well. Been using Outlook for Android, which is fine, but a bit clunky.
