Since using FroYo, my calendar no longer synchronizes non-full-day events from corporate mailbox. Any idea?
[Captivate General] alphadog00:
You are incorrect. If email type is is set plain text and I send an email with a line tagged with bold tags - outlook will display the email as text - with tags visible.

Outlook, at least, will not override the Content-type header just because there are tags in the email.
[Captivate General] foxbat121:
LoL. That's not HTML email. You need set your email type as HTML so that Outlook knows how to code the HTML email correctly.

HTML email is not as you thought was. Just a few tags in the email does not constitute a html email. All the tags, links, resources has to be coded as attachments.
[Captivate General] alphadog00:
Some of the email HTML works - the Amazon.com is a link in a couple places and the URLs with brackets don't have any tags around them - so this is not just simply HTML not being displayed.

The section you point out is the links to the images - On my phone, I don't get that - I just see a "show images" button. Clicking the button, and I see the Amazon logo. I tested it with my own Oder confirm email from amazon.

I still say it is something server side - my phone and others have no problem displaying this properly - yours is having the same issue on 2 distinct firmware releases - but it seems to be where the "display images" Button should be. There is all kinds of additional HTML not displayed that is part of the style sheet.

What does it look like in your Outlook client?
[Captivate General] alphadog00:
LOL back at you.

You do understand that it is the content type header that makes it HTML email right?

You can throw all the tags you want into an email, and if the header says it text, then everything and everybody treats it as text. Setting your email type to HTML in Outlook is for outgoing email, not incoming. Setting this in Outlook, makes the header of outgoing email reflect the content as HTML.

If the header looks like this on email you get, then it will show all tags:

MIME-Version: 1.0

Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit
[Captivate General] foxbat121:
This is way OT.

Yes, I'm talking about outgoing email when you compose new emails. Those email type settings only affect outgoing email anyway.

And you're talking about hacking by manually set the email type to plain text and type in your tags in the plain text message. I'd say that's work as designed for Outlook.

And exchange servers auto-generate multi-part email messages for HTML emails: one being the plain text version that contains main message body and the other is HTML version. So, when an EAS client can only support plain text, only the plain text part will be send over to the phone. When HTML email is generated by other mail servers that don't generate multi-part messages, Exchange server will send down a blank email to the phone (I've encountered this many times).

Back on topic, Exchange 2003 does not support HTML email via EAS regardless what client you use. Exchange 2007 or later will support HTML email ONLY IF the client supports newer EAS protocol (3.0 or later IIRC).

Currently Microsoft Hotmail EAS does not support HTML either. It is still limited to EAS 2.5 IIRC.

UPDATE: just tried GMail using Exchange Sync and the email client does support HTML email properly!
[Captivate General] keitht:
Thanks for the explanation. Guess it is time to start looking at upgrading Exchange.
[Captivate General] keitht:
Attached is what it looks like in Outlook just the top part of the email since the rest has personal info. But the entire email looks like a web page.
[Captivate General] keitht:
Switching gears... now Email is force closing each time I try to load it. Rebooted phone same result. This was not happening yesterday. Removed lag fix and tried again and now it is working. Weird.
[Captivate General] swedishcancerboi:
Anyone one else having troubles, albeit at random, with notifications? Some times they don't appear, not accurate....yada yada....

Why can't we have badges like iOS and WinMo notifications. I really do miss having those. I want to know how many unread messages I have. I hate it when I haver multiple emails come through and I forget to read them all.
[Captivate General] mobius911:
Any updates or ideas on the forward/reply issue?
[Captivate General] id10terrordfw:
Alphadog00 is pretty much spot on, it doesn't like to sync folders automatically besides inbox. Using Exchange 2007 ActiveSync as well as rules set up on the folder in Outlook 2010, it only syncs other folders manually. I am going to continue using Touchdown for this very reason. I can set which folders push, and it helps.

Just make sure to actually set a PIN code if your Exchange admin set it up to require it or it won't sync ANY mail.
[Captivate General] hkk:
Exchange 2003 & HTML

I have the same problem with emails not displaying as HTML. Server version is 2003. My iphone doesn't have that problem.

From what I gathered, it's the problem with the 2003 exchange server, and the stock client not working well.
[Captivate General] foxbat121:
HTML support via ActiveSync was the feature first added in Exchange 2007. Your iPhone maybe configured to retrieve email via POP or IMAP instead of Exchange ActiveSync.

I have no problem retrieve HTML emails from my Gmail account setup as Exchange server.
[Captivate General] id10terrordfw:
Another oddity, I cannot get line breaks in my sig.
[Captivate General] WandererTJ:
I'm having a problem. I was able to connect to Exchange while I had 2.1, but now that I flashed 2.2 to my Captivate (and I'm rooted), I'm getting the dreaded "Setup could not finish: Unable to connect server" message.

I know I have input everything into the fields correctly

Domain:username - sooner\********

Password - (Leaving blank for obvious reasons)

Exchange Server - exchange.ou.edu

SSL is checked

I have referenced this: ou.edu/ouit/all/email/connect/mobile.html

I don't know what the problem is, when I go to the Mobile settings on my exchange via my laptop, the only thing I can think from this:

Status:

------

OK

First sync on: Wed 12/29/2010 8:46 PM

Device ID: validate

Device Model: Android

User agent: Android/0.3

How do I set my Device ID?

when I got it to work while I had 2.1, it had the DeviceID: droid1288972445518

HELP????

EDIT: It just started working for some reason.
[Captivate General] mdb139:
I'm having the same issue as WandererTJ. Just flashed Cognition B8. Everything was working fine under stock Eclair.
[Captivate General] WandererTJ:
My problem was solved, but I dont know why

My problem was solved but I dont know why. I think it might have something to do with the fact that now I am on campus, and I registered my phone with the Campus wifi (the typical online one where you log in and answer the questionare).

The next day after doing that (today) I decided I would call up to the IT services and have them manually add my phone in (or attempt to). So I decided to once again try and Add my Exchange account to my phone so I could talk them through the process and tell them what went wrong.....but rather than me needing to call, it just worked!!!!!

Here's all of what happened:

Domain\Username: *******\*********

Password: *******

Exchange Server: ***********

Use secure connection (SSL) (Checked)

Accept all SSL Certificates (Checked)

[Continue]

*By activating this application you accept that part of your

mobile phone data (comprising IMEI and model name) will

privacy policy. A copy of the policy is available upon request.*

[Continue?]

Checking incoming server settings...

*Remote security administration:

The server exchange.ou.edu requires that you allow it to

Do you wish to finish setting up this account?*

[Continue]

And then I was taken to the happy screen of workingness. I hope this helps someone in some way....
[Android Software Development] cracksmurf:
I was throwing this idea around, and was wondering if it would be possible to take the "Square Up" card reader and put it to other uses. Say perhaps reading data from a state license or other bar code wielding card. I would guess that its just a generic card reader, and would just be a matter of writing the software to present it's data in the correct manner. Anyone out there have the knowledge or software skills to make this possible?
[Android Software Development] neopunisher:
im gonna work on this... i need some help with signal processing and decoding though...

im on twitter @cartercole

bother me so i can get working on it
[Android Software Development] rexar5:
This is something I've been interested in working on as well. I haven't managed to get my hands on a square reader yet, but I'm hoping that the reader doesn't encode the info at all. Then you could simply record the audio from the card and play it back through an electro-magnet/current amp setup like this project instructables.com/id/Magnetic-stripe-card-spoofer/ This way, I could "record" my student ID and not have to worry about losing it and getting locked out of my dorm in 10 degree weather at 5 AM haha.

TLDR: Does anyone know if the reader encodes the card info at all, or if the audio is identical to the bitstream on the card and can simply be played back to send the same exact signal that's on the card.
[Android Software Development] mlevin:
I'm also interested in giving this a try. PM me if you want to get something going.
[Android Software Development] fatbas202:
Have you guys started anything on this? I'm interested in getting this thing to read any card that I come across.
[Android Software Development] josmul123:
I'm also interested in this and have a reader that I'm already messing with.
[Android Software Development] josmul123:
Okay, so I've been obsessing over this a bit lately... I came up with some results, but nothing that actually works yet.

There are two other projects that work with this. The first is mslib (https://github.com/ieatlint/mslib) which is used in the Symbian App MagRead, which already can use the square reader to read driver's licenses, rewards cards, etc. It doesn't support a wide range of card encodings, though.

The other one is a bit older. It's called magstripper (http://sourceforge.net/projects/magstripper/). It contains a java implementation (huge plus for Android development), and can do virtually any known card encoding, but doesn't seem to actually be able to decode recorded swipes made with the square reader (Maybe it's picky about noise? Either way... It's a big down side).

Has anyone come up with anything?
[Android Software Development] steve s:
I hacked an app together which reads cards using the square reader. It doesn't do anything particularly fancy, just decodes tracks 1 and 2 according to the most common format.

To read track 1, you have to physically reposition the card in the reader with a shim to move the magnetic strip relative to the read head.

I'm hesitant to release it given the whole verifone brewhaha, and also because it's not particularly polished yet.

I will write up a description on my blog, though. I'll post here when that's done.

Feel free to email me to talk about it if you are working on something similar. sshipman@gmail.com
[Android Software Development] steve s:
As promised, I wrote up stuff about my app on my blog. I have decided not to publicly release the app or source code, but I did a fairly detailed writeup about what went into getting the data off the cards.

hxxp://cosmodro.me/blog/2011/mar/25/rhombus-square-iskewedi/

I'm not allowed to post links yet. You know how to fix the above.
[Android Software Development] alostpacket:
Nice writeup. I know next to nothing about that stuff but it was a fun read regardless. Seems like a fun hack too.

I feel bad for the fun card though :(
[Android Software Development] vapermonkey:
my idea 4 square up card reader

ok i want a app to unlock my phone with a card you pick card and setup app so that when you go to unlock the phone you will need a reader and a single card of your choice that would be cool
[Android Software Development] wing_addict_usa:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=me.cosmodro.app.rhombus

I doubt it works with newer readers.
[Android Software Development] critofur:
Ok, I need to use square readers, or some other readers to read college ID cards to allow students to clock in to their job, can anybody help out with source code? Is it hard to "de-compile" apps from the app store perhaps? There seem to be a number of them that will work with the Square Reader?

Thanks
[Android Software Development] ailsa00:
Maybe you can directly use one card reader that can read and writer college student ID, such as SYNCOTEK SC-600P.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] o>c:
I think the G2 has quite a meaning for it is the successor of the first Android device G1. Up til now Google has rolled out two (does N1 count?) ADP phones, the ADP1 based on Dream and the HTC Ion based on the Magic. So are we going to see the G2/Desire Z as another ADP device?

Yet Google has got a painful experience over the Nexus One, a setback from the contract-loving mobile operators over Google 's online sale method. The rumoured N2 based on Motorola Shadow never come out, so the successor of Nexus One might as well never will:(

And I got another question for the lucky ones who have pre-ordered a G2, can you choose the colour of the G2? As the HTC video shows a white Desire Z which should be exclusive to the G2. I like the G2 very much but the standard blueish silver seems a bit too 'business', just wonder if HTC gets conservative this time while we have 5 variartions for the G1/Dream.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CwickStylz:
I've tried a number of different music apps, as opposed to the stock Music app in CM6 & I cannot find a single app that will play tracks in proper order!

For instance, I have an Armin Van Buuren double disc that each disc is about 30-some tracks & they all, of course, blend into each. The ID3 tags for each track all show the proper numbering from 1-30-whatever, but when I go into the album the tracks are all completely out of whack, with no rhyme or reason to their order.

Does anyone have a solution or an app that might be better at reading the tracking numberings from ID3 tags?

If your phone is branded as in have stuff from TELUS on it, they would have to release a special update first. Only unbranded handsets get updates from HTC. Try searching for "unbrand"

[Vibrant General] nandyn:
****Sorry this is for T-mobile US Vibrant only! Admins, if you can move this, i'd appreciate it!***

Hey all, First post here, but this is really important news/info to me, since it affects me greatly and has been a source of great stress, anger and frustration for me.

T-mobile will be announcing this soon, but my friend who works for corporate T-Mo U.S. has confirmed that they have the final build of the GPS fix, and is undergoing extensive testing, and that it will start being pushed to users OTA just after Thanksgiving. Yes, that's another 2 months of no GPS for us.

Now, the worse news: Froyo will not be ready for release until next year. MY friend said that Samsung is running into all sorts of problems trying to adapt Froyo for their phones. I'm especially pissed off about this bit of news.

***VERY IMPORTANT****

My friend also advised me not to use the update samsung had posted on Kies as it will prevent users from getting the OTA of Froyo when it is released next year. So, if you plan on keeping your Vibrant, for the love of god, don't force the Kies update (that was the update T-mo rejected because it bricked their test phones and other problems).

For those of you who have held off returning their phones during the "remorse" period hoping for a speedy update are SOL, just like myself. We'll be getting 2.2 by the time everyone else has 3.0, which is ******ed. I've already filed claims for a chargeback with my credit card company, as this is a clear cut case of receiving a product that was not delivered as promised (damaged or faulty product). I suggest all of you do the same if you are out of options and shudder at the thought of having to wait 6 months for every update for the next 2 years while everyone else gets them in half the time.

Anyways, If everyone can help spread this info, it'd be much appreciated, as I want everyone to be as well informed as possible. GPS issues aside, i love my phone, but I cannot stand the thought of having to deal with Samsung's BS and incompetence for 2 years.
[Vibrant General] hihihehe:
cool story brother...
[Vibrant General] nandyn:
I wish i was making this up. You'll hear it from T-mo when they announce it next week like they said they would do on twitter.
[Vibrant General] salmanslick:
half of tmobile us staff is on crack , they dont knwo shyt wat they talk about...they good at reading those scripts provided to them and asking customers to remove the battery wait 30 seconds and insert it bak again :)
[Vibrant General] ickyboo:
I heard that samsung is going to roll out Froyo first then GPS fix later. But meh. :)
[Vibrant General] nandyn:
Yeah, but that's customer "service" people. When I called 2 days ago to ***** them out again and warn them I was going to do a credit card charge back, the lady told me there was a fix... and guess what that "fix" was.."go into settings, location and security, and check the box that says "use wireless networks"... And I asked her if she was ****ting me... Literally, thats what I said.. "are you ****ting me?" then I demanded to speak to retention (to return phone past the 14 days) which did me no good so i told them I would do a charge back for sending me a faulty product at their expense thereby getting a refund and keeping their phone and she said if I felt that would resolve my problems, then to do so.

My buddy works in strategies/ product development, and tests the phones/updates and whatnot. They're currently testing the latest GPS fix they've received after the last one bricked several of their phones.
[Vibrant General] opica:
I'm getting froyo on my SGS next week at the official Samsung mobile service for our country. It is not the final official release, but is still official since I'll get it at their service.

So I will stop *****ing about final OTA/Kies release, 'cause Samsung kept their promise, at least partly (to receive froyo upgrade this year - it's what they said when they rolled out the phone).

They've told me that I will be able to upgrade my phone via Kies when the final version arrives.

So I'm getting my froyo and still hoping for an official release later this year, which is what Samsung said at the first place.

Regards
