Hello ppl,
I configured 4 email accounts to the native email app of the phone. At the time being i have 4. I tried to set up email widget to show a combined inbox to view all of them at once but when configuring it it asks the account to show on the widget. I want to view all 4 of them. In a previews model Galaxy A5 that was possible. Does any other done it or finally used 3rd party app ?
Same here, I wish they didn't change it. Got the P10 lite - my p8 had it and I found it so convenient.

Short answer: you need to spend some more time with it LOL
Install FB app from market. It will ask if you want to sync Contact, say yes. Hit your tab by holding down the finger and select add Widget, you should see FB there. Add it then change the refresh settings to your liking.
Hi
thanks for the reply. I followed same steps but contact sync with Facebook is not good as HTC phones.

I have this same issue. THe sync with Samsung is HORRIBLE. Contact photos do not sync well, links cant be established properly and IF you can link contacts, you can't choose to use say FB's contact photo?? WTF.
Even Windows Mobile 6.5 was better than this! I could click on a contact... in options, choose link to FB contact and viola. GReat especially when some people don't like to use real or full names on FB and use different email addresses for work and social. After that, you could even hold down over the contact photo and then choose to use FB photo, something from the callery or even take a photo!
I used syncmypic to try do this and it helped a little but it still wont work fully.
Also... even if you manage to link contacts manually, you can't choose to use FB photo if there already is a photo for your contact... annoying and poorly thought out...
I use dolphin hd and the desktop user agent add on I only have the fb app just for the share pics and youtube option
I am currently running a SenseHD Based ROM, however stripped of the Sense UI (baadnewz lite). This means that I have all of the key HTC system apps (mail, calendar, dialer, people, camera, etc), but none of that Sense UI and launcher (rosie, etc.) Instead I use launcher pro.
The down side is that I cannot use the very nice Sense provided widgets. If I did, I could use the Mail widget to show the email that is received from the Mail application, which is configured to read from an exchange account (push). But since I cannot use this widget, I have to rely on other widgets to show the email.
The problem is that no mail widget that I have found can be "fed" by the HTC Mail app. It doesn't seem to expose the email so that widgets (other than the Sense widgets) to display the email. In other words, every other widget doesn't allow me to select the email account that the Mail application is using.
Alternatives would be to use K9 Email + pure messaging widget, which works, but I loose the ability for push mail.
The funny thing is that the HTC calendar app --does-- expose the calendar events to other widgets. I am able to select my exchange account in the widget settings.
Am I hosed here? Does anyone know of a way I can use an email widget that is fed by the mail from the HTC Mail widget?
I thought that the email and calendar emails/events gets pushed to a central DB for others apps to cherry pick from? I guess this isn't true?
I don't want to automatically forward the email to another IMAP account (say gmail) of which another widget could pick that up...
ideas?
I'm subscribing to this thread... would like to know this as well...
would like go know too, im searching for a real nice Mail widget Hut coudnt find anythingn.
now i forward ms Mails go ms googlemail anderen Push it from there go gmail...
I stubled on the blog of the creater of the EmailWidget.
His widget can gain access to the mail from the HTC Mail widget by forcing the install of the widget to the /system area.
See http://blog.invalidobject.com/android-app-email-widget/comment-page-1
I asked him if this nice side effect would occur for all apps (i.e.: other widgets) to gain access to the mail provided by the HTC Mail.....
If this is possible.. then we are looking good!
On some HTC devices like HTC Desire or Samsung Galaxy with Android 2.1 you even don't need to install my app as system app.
I don't know of any other app that is capable of showing mails from htc mail app. That was the main reason i built my app. But it is certainly possible to implement other widgets that could gain access like my app does.
Regards,
Frank
Perhaps this thread can be moved over to the Desire Android Development forum - someone may know how to expose, and or disclose, the mail from the HTC Mail app, with or without root. There has been some hesitation in incorporating a potential integration in some mail widgets (ahem, Pure Messenger) because it requires root and is kinda "hacky" in nature.
The app either has a provider or not. I am not exactly sure why the widget being co-located with the HTC Mail app on /system is required.
The lack of a capable email widget is making me re-think my decision to go senseless!
Try Executive Assistant. Don't recall but I'm not running Sense to test.

Nah, you need K9 for that to read the exchange mails...
i want a tool where i dont need to install any other exchange tool ... Something like EMail Widget was perfect , but you need to have root on a desire Z stock 2.2 rom....
too bad though...

Hi All,
Got my Nexus 7 in Dublin Airport T2 Dixons yesterday with no queues, fuss or drama, no pre orders to worry about, just walked up and paid... love it so far however one little issue i have.
Adding the Gmail widget is fine. Inbox emails show all is good in the world. If I put it to sleep and then open after a few mins the emails in the widget do not show... just blank!!!!! any ideas. The gmail account is fine and all emails in here but the widget just seems faulty.
Thanks
Darren
I use that widget with no problems at all,are you using the stock launcher?

Just tried it on mine and when adding the widget, it prompts which label (or folder, e.g. Inbox, sent, etc.). I picked Inbox and like yourself nothing showed up although I have 3 read emails in my Inbox. So I flagged one as unread again and removed and re-added the widget and hey presto all 3 emails show. Now when I actually read the email the 3 emails still show, all greyed out as read. Looks like a little bug in the code to me ?
Same issue on new Nexus 7

I don't have this issue under 4.1.2 on my Galaxy Note 2 but I can reproduce it under CyanogenMod 4.2.2 on a Galaxy Nexus and on my brand new 2nd Gen Nexus 7. When I add the widget it works fine. Go to sleep and it turns blank.
I've got the same issue in motorola RAZR M and samsung S4. The problem is that for some reason the gmail force closes in the background (i see a error) and then the widget goes blank. I use apex launcher and no task killer apart from swiping away the apps using default app switcher.
Hi everyone.
I am a new owner of the SGN3 and i am very pleased with the device.
However i have an issue regarding the native emai app on touchwiz coz it doesnt filter the spams emails
Does anyone knows how to prevent the spams for showing up in the email app ? (I have tried settings up a filter for any email having the world bulk in the object,it does regroup them but i can't assign a default behavior like erase automaticly etc) I halso saw there is an option to add emails adresses and domain known to be spams but it would take hours if i wanted to entered them manually
Thanks in advance
Hello, we use ActiveSync to push out email to our company's Galaxy S5 phones. We have our users use the built in Samsung email app. However, we are noticing that the built in email app strips some formatting from the email that our previous phones (Droid MAXX) and the new gMail app don't strip. I took some screen shots of the same email being viewed in both the gMail app and the stock email app: http://imgur.com/a/gW0GI
The stock app seems to be stripping some of the formatting like font size, boldness, color, etc. But most importantly, it is stripping the ability to click on URL links. For example, the gMail app allows the user to follow the "Tell us how we're doing:" link but the stock one does not.
Is there a setting we're missing?
