Hi, this solution worked perfectly for me.

I found an alternative free way to edit the mail.db file.

These are the steps:

* Download and install Android Commander -> androidcommander.com

* Download and install SQLite Browser -> sqlitebrowser.sourceforge.net

* Open Android Commander and copy the mail.db located in /data/data/com.htc.android.mail/databases/mail.db

* Make a backup of this file (just in case).

* Open the file mail.db with SQLite Browser.

* Follow the steps provided by Justin (weatheryoko) to edit the content of field titled "_easSvrProtocol".

* Save the changes.

* Move/Copy the changed mail.db file from your machine to android device (same path /data/data/com.htc.android.mail/databases/mail.db), don't be affraid, overwrite it :)

* Reboot your phone.

* Voila !

Hope this help.

Cheers!

Exchange Active Sync and Hotmail fix on Inspire 4G

I have the HTC Inspire 4G rooted with Virtuous Infinity ROM (ICS 4.0.3, Sense 4.0) and the fix in post #1 worked for me. I'm able to fully sync my Hotmail email, contacts and calendar. Thank you!

I actually tried the fix in post #2 first and was able to sync calendar and contacts fine, but the email had problems. It would only sync one day of emails and whenever I deleted a message on my phone it would come back immediately upon re-sync. Also, the emails would only display in text format. This was the same problem I had when I first bought the phone (pre-installed with Froyo 2.2.1). Back then, HTC said it was a compatibility issue with Hotmail's Exchange servers, and they eventually fixed it with the OTA GB update.
[HTC One X] PhilipL:
Hi

All working okay with the latest 4.0.4 ICS update from HTC. No need for any manual settings, just inputting my new outlook.com email address and password and it worked straight away.

Looks like they have fixed it in newer software.

Regards

Phil

Hi. Is there any way to make the change to the mail.db file on a stock non-rooted phone? I cannot find the mail.db file using ES File Explorer so that I can modify it, even with a setting in ES that allows to view the root and hidden files. Is rooting or unlocking required in order to access this file? I already tried setting up Exchange using the 3-letter server before the m.hotmail.com and it didn't work.

I have a stock Evo 4G LTE. My wife has an Evo 3D with the same problem, also stock. We are both heavy Hotmail users so I would really like to find a solution.

Thanks in advance!

MickyMax in post #20 said that he was able to do it using ADB and he was not rooted. He did say that his bootloader was unlocked and that he has a custom recovery, but I'm not sure if it matters. Maybe give it a shot.

Ive gotta be missing something here.... I got nothing in /data. and when I try to find the database using SQLite Editor, says: No database files found for Mail (com.htc.android.mail). using superSU, # granted for SQLite. Any Ideas? Tmob One S, rooted

Brad
[HTC One X] jadeboy7:
If you aren't seeing anything at all in /data, then you need to make sure you have root enabled in your file explorer. You may also want to try one of the other methods mentioned.
[HTC One X] greabr:
Kinda wierd... Still cant edit the data directly in /data/data... with SQLite, but after setting ES file explorer to root, i copied com.htc.android.mail to my sdcard and accessed it there with SQLite. Edited and copied back to /data/data..... This worked for me! thanks for the help!

Brad
[HTC One X] jadeboy7:
Maybe SQLite wasn't getting root permission for some reason. Either way, you're welcome and I'm glad you were able to get it working.
[HTC One X] El Ha$on:
well unfortunately this method did not work for me

I followed the steps exactly and mine _easSvrProtocol was already 2.5 and i was getting sync errors.

I attempted switching it over to 14 to see if that would work and nothing.

I changed the server address also as someone mention a few post back, and nothing.

I cannot figure anything out, i have been googling for days and nothing, I have tried everything I have found.

******EDIT*******

I have also now deleted the account and added it back and nothing.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
[HTC One X] El Ha$on:
I have done some more testing...

I reflashed the ROM I was on, and set everything up again and it was working since my last post here. Worked no problems, and I thought everything was great.

But unfortunately the problem came back today. And no luck. This is getting so very frustrating, I have no idea what to do, because I don't want to be flashing my ROMs over and over and over to get something so simple working. Please any help would be greatly appreciated!
[HTC One X] jadeboy7:
Which device/ROM are you on? I can't promise I'll have an answer, but more information doesn't hurt.

I have the sprint HTC Evo Design 4G(HTC Kingdom). And I'm on a custom ROM from the sdx developers forum website.

Tapatalk is acting up for me so I can't copy the link to the ROM.

But its ICS based with sense 3.6 on top of it with a couple of other tweaks included.

And thanks for anything you might be able to provide.

Sync'd. Now, to send.

I used Phil's method (with nerdo's mod) - mostly because I didn't want to root my phone - and solved the sync problem right off (Thanks guys!) Unfortunately, I can't send email now, either on Wifi or 3G (I previously could on 3G). It's not an issue, though, since I can just send it through another, non-hotmail, account.

Phil, I haven't seen a notice for upgrading ICS to 4.0.4 - where do I find that?

v1.76 is out!

I took quite some time with this one, mainly to implement some things I always wanted to do but felt was too convoluted to debug properly afterwards. But anyway its done and I believe I avoided introducing any new bugs too.

Have a look, if you like it, give me a rating, like my facebook page at www.facebook/WoolFloats, or if you really like it, send me a donation! ^_^

- Tweaks to interface

- Language options!!! Just English and 简体中文 for now. If you would like to volunteer your translation service for your preferred language, email me or post on NTW's facebook wall!

- Improved Help, and now with donate button and facebook link, pls like :D

- Simpler and faster customize dialog

- Simplified backup system for better compatibility with newer devices

- Encoding selection displays chinese, korean and japanese in their native characters!
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] crandf:
v1.77!

- Improved Find text! Fully functional wildcards using '*' Eg: "t*i*s" will find "this", "thesis", or "to infinity and beyond, for peanuts"!

- Reassignment of Prev, __.__%, Next icons in toolbar to be side by side.

- the Find and Replace (F/R) button now works more intuitively.

- The keyboard that pops up for Find text and Replace textboxes will now show a more useable layout.

- Other small tweaks to interface
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] crandf:
v1.80

- Tweaks for faster file reads/write performance!

- For NTW Pro, this version fixes a major bug that can corrupt content in large files when repeatedly editing and saving the same chunk without closing the file in between.

But this occurs only when your end-of-line mode is set to CR+LF . If you have always just left it as default, LF or CR, then you should be fine.

v1.79

- Due to user expectations, I've stopped NTW from autoclosing itself whenever another program pushes it into the background.

- Fixed a minor bug which prevented the final line of a file from being displayed if it did not end with '\r\n', '\n', '\r', '>', '.', ' ', or ','.

v1.78

- Tweaks to icons and user interface

- Fixed Text to Speech not retaining the selected language upon reopening

- Fixed bug that sometimes deleted the top line of a file.
[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] crandf:
BLACK FRIDAY is here! :victory:

Prices cut to the minimum that Google will allow for each respective currency :D

Important! 2013-02-20

I just encountered this sudden bug on my SGS3. Cut and Copy buttons will crash my phone everytime in any version of NTW Lite or Pro.

So after some digging, I found that there is a bug in how certain phone models especially Samsung's implements the clipboard.

The temporary solution is either a factory reset, or to do this:

1. boot into recovery > advanced > wipe cache

2. reboot phone > ES Explorer (enable root mode)> delete /data/clipbord/*

3. reboot recovery again > advanced > fix permissions

4. reboot phone > it's fine again, but until Samsung fixes their firmware, the same problem will eventually recur for apps that implement their own cut/copy/paste buttons.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidified:
i've been using my galaxy s3 for the past one month, i was really amazed by everything that phone has to offer. sadly though my phone started to lag after a week. then i got a firmware update from samsung through kies. after the update my phone's performance started to considerably improve and i was happy about that but again after a week of use the phone started to lag. i have a huge list of apps installed on my phone and mostly runs in the background and also loads of widgets too. my max ram usage usually stays at 677 mb sometimes reaches 721 mb which is too high. due to this i know its a part of my mistake too for my phone to lag because of many apps installed. so i factory reset my phone and after fresh boot it was around 584 mb. after some essential apps like facebook, twitter and few more apps my ram count was back to 680 mb.

sigh!!! now that really pissed me off. so i turned off and on few background processes in the settings until i went into the "Security" after turning off the "Ripple Effect" and BAMM!! my ram usage reduced to 420 mb and stayed there. even after installing every huge load of apps i had before my ram surprisingly still stays around 480 mb which is by far so awesome for my heavy usage. maybe others can try this and see if this the real reason for all the heavy ram usage. may be i'm wrong. by the way my phone lags no more after i turned off the ripple effect and no more "launcher reloads" too. i'm using Nova Launcher, my phone is rooted and no task killers installed. other than cf-root everything else is stock.

Hit Thanks if I helped...!!!

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MattBooth:
I haven't noticed a change with it on or off to be honest. I was at about 480mb before and I'm at the same now!

edit:

Hmm, 480mb before lock, 496 immediately after unlock, drops down to 476 shortly after. It uses about 20mb from what I can see.

my girlfriend's s3 had a ram usage amount of around 630 mb, i just disabled the ripple effect on her phone now it shows 410 mb after cleaning the ram. may be users with heavy ram usage can see the difference. watever, she was happy with it and made me a sandwich :)

Where's the other 200MB of RAM gone, though? These are 1GB devices, no?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jaisah:
I agree that the phone should use as much ram as possible but my problem is that it doesnt keep things in ram that i want it to because all the stock things take up so much space.

For example, i play some games like "draw something" and often it has to reload the app after ive been out of it for a while. Or even worse, it has to reload the home screen icons and widgets when i leave an app. That second one is that one that really pi#$es me off. Why doesnt it keep the home screen in ram?

Also this is advertised as having 1gb of ram right? Why does it only display 780mb? I tried turning off the ripple effect with minimal change in ram usage. Ive checked the running apps but theres nothing using a particularly large amount of ram. Does anyone have any suggestions? Its really frustrating because i had a galaxy s2 running ICS which had the same amount of ram but it always had like 300-400 mb free and always kept things in ram ready to go. now i usually only have 100-200mb and it always closes the apps i want kept open, ESECIALLY the HOME SCREEN icons and widgets. So frustrating.

Help? Please?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidified:
even i have the same issues with the home screen. i dont use the default TouchWiz launcher, i use Nova. I made it a system app by moving the apk to the system folder. after this the launcher's performance is much better compared the past. even though it still reloads sometime after i launch some heavy apps like GTA or few other games.

what i think about the heavy RAM usage when compared to the SGS2 is the use of many background process for the motion and other smart features in SGS3. you can try disabling the few you dont use much, it might help reduce the heavy RAM usage but there isn't much we could do about the RAM usage.

i tried few of those unofficial stock 4.1 jelly bean ROMs, compared to the official ICS they are much faster and the total RAM was above 820mb which is a really good thing. the usage of RAM in ideal state is very minimum also the touchwiz launcher had no unnecessary reloads as far as i checked. i guess we need to wait few more days until samsung releases the official version. may be in that all the RAM issues will be fixed.

Care to share how do you make nova a system app? Using omega v13.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidified:
the easy way to do it is by Titanium Backup Pro. first your phone should be rooted then Open Titanium Backup > Select the App you want to convert > then choose "Convert to System App"

if you dont have TB Pro then you must have a File Manager App with Root access.

make sure your system folder has write access

go to the location /data/app

search for the file "com.teslacoilsw.launcher-1.apk"

move that file to /system/app

restart your phone

After changing Nova to system app you will definitely feel the difference in its performance.

thanks but

thanks for a day of happiness, sadly this worked for me only 10-12 hours or so.My ram usage was stable around 550-680 MB which was quiet a rare thing to see on my device, since my ram usage crosses 750mb after few hours of usage, and apps also start restarting for no reason whatsoever (when checked in the running services menu). Disabling ripple definitely improved the performance, its better than before, but the apps restarting issue is still prevalent, even when 650mb is being used I can see few apps restarting for no reason. this issue was prevalent since i got it this 11th of nov, i.e. on stock ICS as well as after the kies update. I am desperately searching for a fix. (mostly without rooting). I badly regret switching from s2 to s3. 2 visits to service center, several online complaints. Samsung was of no help. The best advice i got from their tech guy was to keep on Clearing the RAM. Both the times he just formatted and reloaded the firmware to no avail. I guess flashing a new kernel n rom might solve it. Also it seems that this issue is predominant on Indian firmwares.

PS: I am well aware how memory management works on android, the more ram used the better(faster switching between apps and quick loading of frequently used apps), but its not good when it slows down the phone or causes some inconsistencies.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidified:
For many people Jelly Bean update has fixed most of the issues. Android 4.1.2 has been released for Indian region may be try updating it and check again. I don't have my S3 with me anymore I got it replaced for Note II (which btw is so awesome). The RAM issue was one of the reasons why I replaced my S3 but now on my girlfriend's S3 I flashed the latest version of Wanam Lite ROM, which fixes most of the RAM issues and is blazing fast. May be you should give that ROM a try plus it got many customizations MODs or you can choose to keep it look like Stock as well.
