Are you on contract or PAYG? I've never been able to use my phone's IMAP or POP3 client, regardless of model, due to the way that PAYG WAP works...
[Touch HD General] BANE:
unless 'syncing' with pop three is different from what I think, I have accessed my pop3 account without hassle on my xda2i. (not bought the HD just yet ;) )

I've used it with IOL and GMAIL wthout too much hassle on PAYG vodafone UK gprs.
[Touch HD General] born_2_code:
This is my config :

I am on T-Mobile WNW - Free Internet HSDPA, ( I have unlocked the content restrictions to view all websites )

I have the following pop3 Settings:

Email : example@domain.co.uk

Your Name : Name Here

Account Display Name ( Greyed out ) : Name Here

Incoming Mail Server : mail@domain.co.uk

type:pop3

User Name : example@domain.co.uk

pwd : ********

Save Password : Checked

Outgoing SMTP ( Requires Auth & Use same usr name and PWD )

Advanced:

--------------

Network Connnection : T-Mobile Internet

AutoMatic Receive : 2hrs

Message Type : HTML

This is the total config, It is exactly the same as my outlook on windows XP machine, which can sync. I am however unable to on my phone.

I am asking if anyone who has a HTC Touch HD has successfully setup a pop3 yet ????
[Touch HD General] tombradshaw:
Hi,

I has a similar problem and I am on T-Mobile,

I unchecked the proxy option in Setting / Connections / Proxy Settings and it seems to work now

Tom
[Touch HD General] Kangburra:
In network connections you have T-mobile as the internet access network?
[Touch HD General] tonyblack:
He stated that he is using WiFi, the internet connection setting should not be relevant. The proxy setting mentioned by tombradshaw above may be problem.
[Touch HD General] faw+:
I'm having the same exact problem, using the internet connection, did anyone find a solution for this pls?
[Touch HD General] Philio25:
The solution is already posted as well on other threads. :)

Turn off the proxy server option and it'll work.
[Touch HD General] faw+:
No that didn't make it for me :(
[Touch HD General] Levinson:
The asnwer is very simple

your setting:

Email : example@domain.co.uk

should be:

Email : example (without the rest the account knows this from the POP and SMTP )

This should make your email to work!
[Touch HD General] DannieDorko:
Has anyone come up with a solution for this yet? I am trying to connect to a pop3 e-mail account belonging to a privately owned domain and have everything set up in the same way to the original poster, except I am connecting via my provider's (Orange UK) data tariff.

My Internet connection does not have a proxy specified, I can connect to a hotmail account without issue, and I know all of the details are correct as I have just set them up fresh on a different computer.

Any suggestions not already mentioned will be appreciated as I have read through the entire thread and none of the suggestions so far have led to me being able to connect.

The message I receive is:
[Touch HD General] DannieDorko:
Is there really no one out there who knows how to solve this? I really don't want to be stuck using hotmail when I am travelling half way around the world :(
[Touch HD General] lumi74:
Hello,

I also have the same problem:

While my first pop email account works fine, the second (pop.gmx.de) doesn´t synchronize any more. For the first two weeks everything worked fine, but a couple of days ago, the second mail accoutn stopped working.

Of course I checked the logon data sevral times, re-entered the complete data as a new account, soft-reseted my Touch HD, etc.

I also checked the same POP mail account at the same time from my notebook without any problems - so it cannot be a server problem.

Strange: When I you the web interface from GMX it tells me that there have been several unsuccessful logon attemtps to my account.

So it seems as if the Touch HD scrumbles the POP password, that I re-entered unnumbered times.

Any ideas or solutions to this?

Greetings,

Lumi74
[Touch HD General] 6Fg8:
My GMX worked perfectly for months, but since 2 weeks its exactly the same like you describe it. Yahoo still working without any problems. Seems GMX changed something on their servers :mad:
[Touch HD General] xep624:
Yep. For me too. Since a few days my gmx won't work...
[Touch HD General] 6Fg8:
As for the GMX account not working, i tried it again today without changing anything in settings. Just hit send/receive - worked like a charm!
[Touch HD General] Jack Wood:
Hi,

Sorry to ressurect this thread, but I am having the same issue,

I am on monthly Orange inclusive tarrif.

I am trying to access a POP3 f2s.com email account that works perfectly on the desktop.

It has worked in the past, but very sporadically. Now it just refuses to work.

I have tried deleting and re-installing new accounts with the same data to no avail.

One thing of note is that the password seems to be getting changed. When I go back to re-enter the password, it has many more characters than I have in my password.

There is no proxy assigned, either.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Jack
[Touch HD General] samir_d:
Hi, i am experiencing the exact same problem as yourself my fellow HD User..

I am trying to connect to NTL POP3 and it always comes back with Password screen "Check username and password and try again"

I have a GMail account which works fine, as a workaround, I am forwarding my NTL Emails to GMail and I then receive them via my Touch HD which works well for me, i get 99% of the emails but im just a bit paranoid i may miss an email...

ANY help would be appreciated....!

Thanx
[Touch HD General] djkasmic:
i'm having this problem too. my second gnx-account works like a charm. but the first account only syncs the first a weeks after setting it up. after a weeks i get the error: message cannot be downloaded...

after deleting and adding the account it works for a weeks.

in the second account there are roundabout 3000 mails. maybe thats the problem??
[Touch HD General] TRLOS:
sorry to bump this thread, but has anyone found a solution to this ?

I have been trying to set up a POP3 mail account from my ISP. Everything has been set up correctly as far as all the settings go but I keep getting the message "Check user name and password and try again".

I have checked all the login details by signing into webmail and both the username and password are correct.....but for some reason, it just wont accept my credentials.

As a note, i can see in the status bar that it makes a connection to the server, but gets stuck at Logging Onto...

could it be that WM6.5 doesn't send the exact credentials we are typing in ?
[Touch HD General] TRLOS:
SOLVED

After some playing around, I answered my own question. Hope this helps everyone else.

First off, to get a POP3 account working on your WM, start off by deleting any previous accounts you have set up.

I'll go through this step by step and make is as noob proof as possible.

- Click on Setup Email

- Put in your email address and password and click Next

- UNTICK 'Try to get e-mail settings automatically'.... and i did say UNTICK.

- put the rest of your POP3 & SMTP settings in and that should be it.

From what i discovered, if you leave it to detect the settings automatically, it sets your mail type to IMAP and it even puts in a port number after your incoming mail server. By doing it manually, you can specify that its a POP3 account, not IMAP.

Hope this helps out a few people
[Touch HD General] Sharky2:
Did you do a ROM update?? The problem is that the servercertificate is making the problem.

I had the same problem and solved it by:

Give a hard reset and after booting the HTC first install your e-mail account. When finished you get the message " invalid servercertificate" go on yes/no.

After this message I tap NO and activate sending/receiving again. The phone gets a valid servercertificate from your provider and its works!!

Do not install a full back-up after this procedure because you write the old servercertificate into the HTC and the problem starts again!

I hope this will help you and others

Kind regards,

[Touch HD General] Digi421:
I am now having the same problem. I run my own e-mail server at home, and I can't even get messages via LAN (where phone and mailserver are in the same subnet). Tried re-creating a dozen times but still get that dreaded error. When using Outlook (or any other mail client) on my PC in the same subnet, it all works just fine. It's also not a connection issue as I ran a tcpdump on my switch and could see the connection from start to finish and my mail server log also doesn't log any errors - so it has to be something with the mail app.
[Touch HD General] natstally:
I.ve also been having problems with email (talktalk) (POP3).

I've had my HD for over 18months and it's always been fine but recently (once out of contract and warranty) I've flashed an Energy ROM WM 6.5 and haven't been able to get emails working at all!

I'm now in the process of reverting back to stock ROM as i've spent way to much time lately playing about with and flashing new ROMs!

I'm just hoping that my email will work again when i do, otherwise i could have kept the Energy ROM!

[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] en11gma:
omg.

my friend just seen my pattern when i unlocked my phone so i decided to change my pattern (it had been a real long time since i changed it anyway) so i did it.

i cant remember what i changed it to.

i actually changed it 2x but the first pattern i thought was too easy so i changed it again.

i didnt make it any harder as in more dots to complete the pattern but hard enough i dont remember it.

im on a s21 ultra of course.

is there a limit on how many failed attempts i can do?

so far i think im under 10 but it does make me wait 30secs alot.

if there is an unlimited amount i think i will guess it but if there is a finite i dont want to mess it up and do a factory reset or erase.

i have alot of my grandbabies pics and videos on there.

if there is a way to bypass it please tell me.

i know my google acct on computer etc... thats not a problem and that is the same acct on my phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Kenora_I:
Do you have a Samsung account on it?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] en11gma:
i not sure. i think i might have but i think i deleted it but it keeps asking me to same my passwords to samsung and i keep hitting never.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] orangekid:
unless you have an unlocked bootloader I don't know that there's anything that can be done. I would just get them all wrong at this point and see if it let's you reset it with a good account. If you BL is unlocked you could boot into a custom recovery and wipe the security file.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Kenora_I:
Can only be done if you have find my device enabled and have an active internet connection in the phone tho

Step 1. Open the internet browser on your notebook and input the following website

address: https://findmymobile.samsung.com, click on the Sign in button and input your login credentials of your Samsung account, then click on Sign in button once more.

image to login to find my mobile web page

Step 2. The mobile device registered under your Samsung account will appear on the right-side of the screen. If you have multiple devices registered under the same Samsung account, make sure you select the device that needs to be remotely unlocked. Refer to the image below and click on the Unlock icon to unlock your device.

image after login to find my mobile web page

Step 3. Once you click on Unlock, a pop-up window will appear asking to verify the password of your Samsung account. After you input your password, click on the NEXT button, the pop-up window will automatically close and another pop-up window will appear with the result of remotely unlocking your device
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] en11gma:
i just logged into my samsung account and it says i have no linked devices.

grrrr

is there a limit before it factory reset my phone
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] en11gma:
i have 4 devices in there but not the one im using. crap!

do i have unlimited failed attempts on the pattern unlock?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Kenora_I:
Well, at this point you probably need to reset the phone, as you didn't link your Samsung account.

There actually isn't any way to recover the data Unless you can guess the pattern again.

I don't know if Samsung themselves would unlock the phone if you took it to the support center providing proof that you own the phone, but that could get your data back idk

In my opinion it is worth a try in this case
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] en11gma:
do i have unlimited tries on the pattern unlock or will it erase my data after so many failed attempts?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Kenora_I:
Depends if you had that option enabled in settings, by default it is disabled
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] jrkruse:
Your only solution is too wipe your phone. So take better care next time and chalk this one up to experience
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Kenora_I:
Samsung might unlock it at their support centers yknow if they have proof of ownership
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] en11gma:
so how many failed attempts do i get?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Kenora_I:
Probably 3 then a waiting time, but it's probably more easier to take it to Samsung and get them to unlock it for you, since you own the phone they can do it.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] jrkruse:
Yea I wouldn’t hold my breath on that happening but good luck
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] en11gma:
i live in the country. i dont think there is a samsung store even in my state. im in iowa in usa
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] blackhawk:
Samsung can't unlock it... pretty sure.

Once you set a lock screen the security is very good, too good. Sleep on it to see if the pattern comes to you... you still remember it.

That failing, suck it up. It may have not been your fault at all, see below.

I never set a screen lock, 2x tap on/off.

Never set a a bios password.

And most importantly never encrypt data backup hdds, etc.

You are the one most likely to get locked out... lesson learned the hard way.

A firmware failure, or external forces beyond your control (high energy particles of cosmic origin can do it*) can put you in a no win situation once you set an eccess password. While if you hadn't you likely wouldn't be locked out. I had a laptop bios lock me out, the password was simple a simple "S" even years latter I remember it... but the bios doesn't!

*this isn't a joke. Flying or being at higher elevations increases the risk. While it is slight when under the protection of the ionosphere it's still a random failure factor. One high energy particle can change the value of a flash memory cell without damaging it. The data however is corrupted unless redundantly backup which is one reason why spacecraft use at least 3 redundant computers.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Kenora_I:
omg wut ._.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] death365:
Even if u hard reset, u will be asked to input your Samsung account and password, anf even with out knowing the pattern you have the option of putting in your PIN.

If you don't know your own PIN code then, something Is wrong!
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Kenora_I:
It would be Google account and they said they changed their pattern and lost the combination, i also have had the same problem b4. I just used find my phone to unlock the device
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Kenora_I:
but people could use your phone without permission lol, but you are the closed off guy so nvm lol
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] en11gma:
with google find my phone all it could do was find my phone, ring my phone and reset phone i believe.

i FINALLY got it unlocked lucky me.

i had two samsung accounts.

one from along time ago which i remembered easier for some reason then the newer one.

i only tried the newer one which is where you can select sign in with my google acct

i cant believe it was there!

omg it totally saved my ass.

thank-you samsung!!!

i couldnt remember my lock pattern for nothing.

when you verify you are you with samsung (i had 2 step verify on) it sent a text msg to my phone with the pass code. i could read my text messages thank god.

thank-you everyone who was trying to help.

btw i couldnt power down the phone i couldnt reset the phone. i tried multiple times so like a person above said about entering the pin upon boot. i used to have a pin but i think that was before i had a lock pattern selected for unlocking the phone.

i dont think i have a pin and a lock pattern do i?

i remember my pin that i used to have but i didnt have an option to enter it because i couldnt even restart my phone or power off or anything. maybe just let the battery run out?
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] Kenora_I:
Nice!, Good to see it worked, and for future reference to force shut down Samsung phones you need to plug the cable in then just hold the power button for some time.

Good to see your problem is fixed
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] en11gma:
i got super lucky. major panic was happening. the first time i liked a piece of software for samsung in a long time. you would think it would be google who had control of the unlock and not samsung but i guess when you really really think about samsung is probably who should control the unlock of the device but i still would prefer google to take care of that from manage android devices or w/e it is in the google account.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] blackhawk:
Soft error.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] blackhawk:
They can try...

my security is multilayered. The phone stays with me at all times just like the Gerber. I don't leave either laying around... as that's just inviting misfortune.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] richhaynes:
Just to clarify, this will only work if you have set the option of remote unlock in the settings. I have find my mobile enabled and can log in and trace my device but I cannot unlock it as that particular option is disabled.
[Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra] richhaynes:
For clarity, whether you have unlimited tries depends on your settings. In settings > lock screen > secure lock settings there is an auto factory reset option. When enabled, you get 15 attempts to get it right before it wipes your phone. When its disabled, you get unlimited tries. You would have known if you had it enabled as you get numerous warnings before the last attempt. You can see exactly what it looks like on this video:
[Touch HD General] Falk:
We recently confirmed (thanks to kdomo!) that you can use the internal speaker for VoIP calls on your Touch HD. AGEphone Mobile the only softphone that supports this on the WM platform! Please take a look at my signature and this thread for more information :)
[Touch HD General] kdomo:
I tried it, but just the external speaker is working.

Any idea?

The log is in the attachment.

Thx
[Touch HD General] eaglesteve:
Is it possible to use bluetooth headset using this VOIP client?
[Touch HD General] kdomo:
I have not bluetooth headset but the option exists.

With headphone working nice.
[Touch HD General] qnetcore:
is possible.. but only the "Bluetooth Advanced Audio" Profile.. this results in: you can hear voice over the Headset, but the phone grab your voice.. There is no option to using the Mono-Headset Profile.
[Touch HD General] Falk:
I just sent you a PM containing more info. Please disregard my request for a log - I didn't see your post yet.
[Touch HD General] Falk:
Out of our FAQ:

2. Does AGEphone support Bluetooth headsets?

There is no official support for Bluetooth Headsets yet, but you can make most of them work with AGEphone Mobile using a little hack. There is no need to change the audio device in the settings for this at the moment. You only have to use a little tool called "BTAudioToggle.exe". For further information about this utility please refer to this thread. The package you can download there contains "BTAudioOn.exe" / "BTAudioOff.exe", but using "BTAudioToggle.exe" does the job just fine.

Once you have downloaded the utility, please go to "Settings - Other" and enter the path to the "BTAudioToggle.exe" file there under "Execute on Connect" and "Execute on Disc." without any further parameters. If your BT headset is paired properly with your phone AGEphone Mobile will automatically switch output and input to the device whenever you accept a call. It's probably of note that "BTAudioToggle.exe" only works with the Microsoft Bluetooth Stack.
[Touch HD General] kdomo:
Hi Falk,

I switched on the "Switch Speakers during Call" function.

So the internal speaker is working very well!

The log file is in the attachment, I am waiting for the free serial number.

THANK YOU :)
[Touch HD General] Falk:
Good to hear that it works using the internal speaker! I have just sent you your key and hope that AGEphone Mobile will be of good use for you. As for everyone else, please enjoy the only WM VoIP software that supports the earphone :)
[Touch HD General] eaglesteve:
So, you only have to check the "Switch Speakers during call" option in order to use the embedded earpiece, and could make call without any echo heard by the other party?
[Touch HD General] Falk:
Yes, that's exactly how it works! The echo may or may not be completely eliminated depending on the phone model. There's also no leap of faith here though as we have a fully functional (call time limited) trial version available on our download page. Just take a look at my signature for more info.
[Touch HD General] eaglesteve:
Thanks for the reply.

I'm already your existing customer, and love this product. I tested it a few months back and did'nt take me long to know that this is what I have been looking for.

Just noticed that I'm still on 2.62, and the latest is 2.7. My license key will still work, right?
[Touch HD General] kdomo:
There is no echo. My opinion the quality of sound is excellent.
[Touch HD General] eaglesteve:
It will always have echo if you use the external speaker. This is because the voice of the person you call will loop back to the microphone. At present, with my Athena, which only has external speaker and no embedded earpiece, I have to use wired headset to prevent this echo.

With embedded earpiece, I expect that echo, if any, would be extremely minimal. My guess is, if it happens, we could minimise or eliminate it by adjusting the volume so that the microphone will not pick up the voice from the embedded earpiece.
[Touch HD General] Falk:
It will, no worries! So far all keys from 1.X onwards are still valid and we have no immediate plans to change that. If we ever decide to give out new keys you will see a notice on the page and in the main thread here on XDA-Dev.
[Touch HD General] Falk:
We're happy to hear that as on some models there will be a minimal echo because AGEphone doesn't support any accoustic echo cancellation (read below if you're interested in the background). eaglesteve is right when he says that this echo can usually be managed by simply lowering the call volume a bit. Which is a good keyword: We have experienced very low call volumes on some devices, ROMs when the speakerswitch is option is enabled. Please let us know if that is the case for anyone here.

-------------------------

Background: The normal phone application usually is heavily optimized for the model it's used on. There are companies that make a living by selling sophisticated accoustic echo cancellation solutions. Most more generic solutions simply use too much processing power and thus a lot of older devices can't make any use of them. That's why we decided to go with the speaker switching as it seems to be a decent compromise between usability and cost (time, money, CPU resources).
[Touch HD General] eaglesteve:
Falk,

Is there any possibility of recording the phone conversation into voice files?
[Touch HD General] Falk:
Right now you can only set this on a general basis in "3. Audio (page 2) - Record Calls". We plan on making this option available in the main GUI on a per case basis later on.
