Hey guys,

Here are the settings for Hotmail Active-Sync:

email: myemail@live.it

server address: m.hotmail.com

SSL enabled

username: myemail@live.it

password: password

Domain: <blank>

Works great for me!
[Android Apps and Games] eddybrown:
Doesn't seem to work for my hotmail.com address.
[Android Apps and Games] feicipet:
Does this work for anybody else?

I keep getting a "Cannot connect to server" error when I attempt to set it up. I'm running Froyo FRF72.

My steps:

Settings -> Accounts & Sync

Add Account -> Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync

Keyed in my Hotmail email address and password.

ADB logcat:

Screen shows "Retrieving account information" for about a minute or so.

ADB logcat:

I'm shown a "Server Settings" form.

Domain / Username: "\myadd@hotmail.com"

Password: my password

Server: m.hotmail.com

Use secure connection (SSL): Checked

Accept all SSL certificates: Unchecked

I get an error saying "Cannot connect to server".

ADB logcat:

I've tried unchecking SSL, and also checking accept all SSL certs. Same result. I've also tried setting "m.hotmail.com" as the domain. No go.

Anyone with better results?

Guys, thanks for your excitement. We haven't released this feature publicly yet. We are in our final phase of testing and deploying it. Once it is completely functional, we will publish it with a bang, that you will not miss it :) After all, we are writing this service just for you. Please keep a little patience and result will be sweet. :)

I am also running Froyo ( Desire - ShadowFrost 1.3)maybe the problem is linked with Froyo..

Any news on this? How come this activesync thing is a Microsoft feature, and doesn't work with Hotmail but it works with Gmail.
[Android Apps and Games] BrewGoat:
It's called Marketing. They want to wait till mid fourth quarter 2010 when they release the new Windows Mobile 7 and try to take some of Apple's thunder in January. Apple always releases something in January,which pisses their partners and retailers off because it misses the Christmas shopping season. The Verizon iPhone agreement is suppsoed to go into effect in January.

Microsoft hopes to release WM7 before Christmas and make a big splash. It'stheir last big hope for comsumer phones and from what I understand it is suppsoed to be very good.
[Android Apps and Games] nunuxx:
man i've been waiting for this forever

i decided to pick up a Desire cause i couldn't wait for Windows phone 7 anymore, and i though i could live without push hotmail

but ever since reading about this, i've been trying to add the activesync on my android everyday!!

TimeSaver you're with MS? I hope this works sooooon!!! i guess i have to live with gmail push for now
[Android Apps and Games] mhrc4:
Completely looking forward to this. Droid X coming Monday, completely not looking forward to using gMail for ANYTHING....

Still have "Cannot connect to server" on my Desire with stock ROM and just tried CyanogenMod yesterday, same result.

Does this stuff work on some devices?
[Android Apps and Games] mhrc4:
No, its not been enabled by the Hotmail team. I expect it will be sometime end of Q3 beginning of Q4

HOWEVER, I tried the EXACT same settings with Touchdown and it worked perfectly.
[Android Apps and Games] blcklab:

[Android Apps and Games] blcklab:
Okay. Same settings I've used since this leaked months ago and they closed it off. Today I got this message

"Checking Certificate...

Checking ActiveSync with SSL...

Server is Microsoft-IIS/6.0

ActiveSync was found

ActiveSync Version :Versions:Microsoft-IIS/6.0,2.5

ActiveSync provisioning returns HTTP:400

Trying activesync protocol 2.5...

ActiveSync provisioning returns HTTP:400

Error provisioning ActiveSync: Policy status is 0"

What IS interesting is I also got the email from Hotmail saying they noticed I was trying to get hotmail to go. Same email others received in the past. That's the first time, so imho it lookslike Touchdown made it further than native mail and perhaps this is a server side issue.

Here it is in mid-January and on my EVO I'm still getting the "Failed to create account" error.
[Android Apps and Games] el.dizzee:
I just tried this now and had the same error. For me it was caused by not properly entering my username. I wrote out initially "blahblahblah", when instead it should have been "blahblahblah@hotmail.com"

Try putting in your full email address as your username, that's what solved the error for me.
[Android Apps and Games] Lord Darth Vader:

I do not like gmail at all. It is very confusing to compose Emails, send attachments and more. Its overall layout and design is poor.
[Android Apps and Games] wojcik:
I have tryed to get the exchange for hotmail. But he downloads the mails, and after that, he delete all the mails, and synch again. So he downloads every 10 sec all my mails.

Does anyone know what i'm doing wrong. I did it by the following way on my DHD:

Server: M.hotmail.com

SSL checked

Connection mode: Activesync only.

Username: myemail@live.nl

Password: mypass

Anyone? Help?
[Android Apps and Games] Lord Darth Vader:
I still get the "Failed to create account" error when I attempt to set it up. I just gave up. It doesn't work on most EVOs for some odd reason.
[Android Apps and Games] kevinre:
Works for me
[Android Apps and Games] Lord Darth Vader:
I was finally able to set this up on my EVO, but two major problems exist, and I'm unable to fix either. Unlike the stock Email app settings, I cannot change this in the exchange settings.

1. I'm unable to view HTML Emails. They all come in as plain text, and the setting that allows one to toggle between plain text and HTML is grayed out and unable to be changed from its default setting of plain text.

2. Whenever I delete an Email, it's also deleted from the server, so when I am on my PC later, the deleted Emails are gone from my in-box. Considering I average a couple hundred Emails per day, this is annoying, because it forces me to go into my deleted box and search for a specific Email, which isn't easy.

As it stands right now, this exchange version of Hotmail is worse than my original stock Email where I added my Hotmail account. Because of the two above problems, I'm going to uninstall this and go back to what I had earlier. Considering I had the receive interval set to 5 minutes, there really was not much of a difference between that and exchange's push Email.
[Android Apps and Games] devalian:
why do u even delete it from your phone in the first place? important emails are supposed to be flag and read in desktop later, instead of delete.

i been trying HTC Sense mail app on many devices. yet, the hotmail never wants to work regardless of what version of htc mail is. it only works on Stock Email apps for me.

annoyingly, no HTML support as well.

frankly, how could this be worse than Windows Mobile 6.5. :eek:
[Android Apps and Games] Lord Darth Vader:
Because if I don't, the phone gets clogged up and its internal memory decreases (if I don't delete from my trash folder as well). Why would I want to scroll through hundreds of deleted messages?
[Android Apps and Games] Bonobow:
Just wondering,

why ISN'T there an App for this? like the gmail app!?

wtf!?
[Android Apps and Games] CHRISTOPHERg:

[Android Apps and Games] yani2000:
I think Microsoft charges a license for ActiveSync.

That's why all the ActiveSync mail clients are paid apps! :mad:

[EVO 4G Android Development] kthejoker20:
Ok, so I'm gonna request tough one. Probably possible though.

Is there a way to dual boot rom's?

Say, I wanna use fresh's rom and then reboot and boot into evolution's froyo rom.

Is there a way to select which rom i want to boot into on the boot up?

Is this device even able to support this? How much space are we working with for the device itself?
[EVO 4G Android Development] phinnaeus:
You'd have to partiton the memory and then devise some sort of boot selector... A much more feasible solution is just to create nandroid backups of each ROM in a stable and set up state.
[EVO 4G Android Development] kthejoker20:
I figured as much... I guess I would need to have a need to dual boot.

But, the challenge is still out there :D
[EVO 4G Android Development] Aridon:
Not dual boot but you could just dual nandroid.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ricersniper:
thats what i do. takes 3 min to back up and then restore the other
[EVO 4G Android Development] Riztnack:
Anyway we could get a write up to do a dual nandroid setup?
[EVO 4G Android Development] mrjkwik:
while, making 2 nandroid backups, and restoring to which ever you choose to use, a dual backup system would be cool. but i'm guessing that would take some sort in the firmware??

Here is your request being granted....

I get a double notification sound every time i get a text message. The first sound is the one i chose in handcent. The second sound occures 1 second after the first, and its the default notification sound("look at me").

Ive tried unchecking everything in the default messaging app. Ive tried going into settings>sound& display> notification ringtone> silent. Restarting phone after setting these things. And still no fix. I still get the double notification sounds. The 1st i want. The second default sound doesnt go away.

Before I made this thread i did research around the web about this and tried every suggestion. I still have the problem.

Any other suggestions?:confused:

also: my phone is not rooted
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ztm.000:
Wow. Never heard of that... I really don't know what to say.

Root.
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nxt:
Go to messaging app, settings, then just UNCHECK notifications. That should be it. I've had tons of Android phones and use all kinds of 3rd party SMS app, and have no issues.

Make sure you don't have some other SMS app or message notification app also running giving notifications. (missed call, sms popup, chompsms, trackball alert, sms count widget, etc..)
[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] inhuman5000:
Yeah "nothing" is checked in the default messaging app.

I tried to install chomp to see if it was handcent and it did it with chomp too.

Edit: I found the issue!

Thanks for suggesting about looking for any app that had anything to do with messaging or ringer tones. It was a rarely used app i have called "ringo pro"

I changed the appropriate settings and now everything is fine.

Thank you :)

Hi guys,

Here's the situation:

I have the Marketplace settings change that the apps that I will be downloading will be installed in the storage card. Therefore, anything that I download from Marketplace will be installed in the storage card.

Question:

So I downloaded the new Microsoft Mobile 2010 from Marketplace. A 2007 version comes with our phone. Therefore, the 2007 version will be remove so that the 2010 version will be installed. The 2007 version is installed on the device right? Correct me if I am wrong. If it is in the device installed the program then will be remove from the device and the new version will be installed in the storage card.

Correct me guys if I am wrong. thank for any input guys.
[Desire General] OnlinePredator:
Just want to point out a flaw, but also ask for help. I have just moved into a new house which has no internet. I have a good data plan on my desire and great reception, so I thought I would try using the internet share option when using usb connected to a Windows 7 pc. Windows says it can't find a adp driver.... how stupid. Does that mean the computer needs to be online to download the driver before you can share the internet?

I don't have heaps of downloads on my phone plan so can't download the android sdk as o have read elsewhere as it has the driver.

Any help?

[EVO 4G Accessories] danknee:
Ouch.. I am 95% sure that you just bought a fake. You may want to try to contact San Disk to try to verify authenticity.

Here is a wiki that shows the physical differences between a real card and a fake. If you are able to confirm that the card is fake you may be able to get your $150 back, especially if you paid with a credit card. Although the physical differences are negligible, I have had all three fake Hong Kong sd cards that I bought turn up as duds after 3-6 months of use.
