Hi Raymond,

I guess it's better to discuss this matter here than in the Sweet Honey thread.

I just noticed that the email.apk I am using, which was posted by explodingboy70, is actually the same as the email_gtab.zip one you posted here.

Earlier in the Simply Honey thread, you mentioned they were not the same, but I think you were comparing it against the one in explodingboy70's swype_email_fix.zip?

But actually he posted a different one right after Sweety Honey 2.5, and that one is the same as email_gtab.zip, and I'm not seeing any security being enforced.

OK, here is the timeline:

explodingboy70 posted Sweet Honey 2.5

explodingboy70 posted email.apk temporarily to fix issues from the version that came with 2.5. That email.apk is the Tab version and later I used filecompare to compare against your email_gtab.zip and found they are the same

explodingboy70 posted swype_email_fix.zip to fix both email and Swype. But this time it is not the Tab version anymore, so it's different from the ones you posted here

I've been using #2 for a few days and unlike all the old 2.2 versions it does not enforce PIN/Password unlock. I have an account that requires that but #2 just doesn't enforce it. I can receive and send email without any problems. It doesn't ask me to activate the security policy. There is an entry in Settings -> Location and Security -> Device Administration, but it's not checked.

Now my question is anyone with Exchange account that requires security policy using email_gtab.zip and not seeing security being enforced?

I'm not ignoring you, but I need to go downtown for a few hours. If krad42 is in here he may be able to shed some light on this.:)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] krad42:
I took his and ran it through the security removal tool. The one that came with 2.5.

I used the post without the swipe fix, I never did that fix since I don't use swipe and I was in search for tab email with no security.

Hope this clears it up...

Sorry, I was out longer than expected. Sadly no one has had that problem with the original Gtab app. In all the posts I have read, quite a few, I never seen anyone post this one. But you are happy it doesn't do that anyway!:)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:

Yes it does. Thanks!:)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] ALUOp:
Just wanted to let you know what I saw.

Maybe I did something wrong or I messed up the versions.

Anyway, I'm happy with whatever I'm using. Thanks for the great app.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] cccheel:
<Sigh>

Just can't get this working. I've tried every combination I can think of, re-flashed both versions; it just won't work. Sucks, because I really like the layout and functionability.

I will just flash back the original one (speaking of which, where can I find the apk for the original email file?).

I updated the OP with a the stock version for you, but I see someone already beat me to it. (Thanks vibrantnew-B). I have to assume you tried all my suggestions and I'm sorry we couldn't get it working for you. If I encounter a solution I'll be sure to PM you! One last thing you might try is to go to menu>settings>applications>manage applications>all tab> then scroll down to both the email app and AccountAndSync settings and delete any cache and data found there. Reboot,then set up your account one last time.:)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] keospeedwagon:
That is correct.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:
I'm investigating this issue tonight, in the meantime try this:
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:
flashabl email

keospeedwagon, you never said what version of Froyo you are running. If you are on a 2.2 Rom, these are the issues you should look for.

1. App is likely to not work properly with exchange. (it was always hit or miss)

2. PDF files can stop download of emails

3. If no emails are being populated-look into changing your sync interval, try 3 days.

4. If you use HTML emails & exchange, the exchange version must be 2007 or newer.

5. Embeded pictures in emails can stop download of emails

I think I will add these issues to the OP for those on 2.2 Roms who insist on using exchange and POP.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] keospeedwagon:
I am using 2.2.1, on Simply Honey.

Also, I have already tried to delete the cache and data. I have even uninstalled via TB and no success.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:

When you manually try to sync emails, does the sync icon just spin forever or does it spin, stop, and not populate any emails?:)

[Vibrant Themes and Apps] BamaQ:
I'm still having trouble getting Hotmail/Windows Live/MSN Mail to populate my emails. I can send emails but I have yet to receive a single email in my inbox (new/old). It just spins and says "connecting". I've tried you updated OP and I keep getting "server errors".

Am I missing something? :-/
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Bummrusha:
Same issues with Hotmail for me. Tried all the tips in the thread, and m.hotmail.com gives a connection error.

[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:
flashabl email

Based on what you wrote I can't even begin to start. What version of Froyo 2.2.1 or 2.2, using exchange, imap, any version of PoP; if exchange, what version. Not trying to be smart, but there is no crystal ball over here.:)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:
flashabl email

I know zip about cyanogen mod. As the OP states this has been tested for Bionix Frost and Simply honey only. Consider yourself the first tester for CM7! I assume you had another stock email client in use before this one. You might try deleting cache and data, (menu>settings>applications>manage applications>all tab>scroll down to AccountAndSyncSettings and the email app-delete any cache and data if present) Reboot and set up your account again through the email app first. Hope this helps.:)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:
flashabl email

I'm about to answer the guy below you. Have you tried setting up the above accounts as POP? If you are setting those up as POP mail I'm sure that isn't going to work. I am still investigating the Problems with POP mail and the separate issue of mail never populating. The Hotmail settings are for exchange only and...(I stopped because it's my fault! I left out the little detail that exchange has to be selected when using the Hotmail settings for Push)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:
flashabl email

With the server setting 'm.hotmail.com', exchange has to be chosen first out of the three choices you are given. That's my fault, I left that little detail out. With the settings I'm looking at that you have provided, I can see your having the same problem as keospeedwagon. I'm still looking into that one and haven't found any solution yet although again using POP is the partially the culprit. Just to test, in settings set your email to download 'all' and tell me what happens.:)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:
flashabl email

I've updated the OP with the correct instructions for Hotmail Push. On another note, I'm sure if I ever find the solution to why sometimes emails wont event populate in POP, it will work for the settings you posted too. So far, I'm not hopeful though. Can't find anything.:(

EDIT: Sorry for any delays in response, but I'll be out until tonight. See you all then!

[Vibrant Themes and Apps] crazy25000:
Here are my settings just in case it might help someone...I like this way more then the gmail app.

Before flashing this, I used titanium to delete the cache/data for Accounts and Sync and deleted cache/data for gmail app. Then I booted into recovery and flashed the file.

Windows Live Account

1. Add account, type full user@live. com and password

2. Click manual, choose exchange

3. Domain: \user@live.com

Exchange: m.hotmail.com

4. Only checked use SSL

Gmail

1. User@gmail. com and password

2. Click manual, choose Exchange

Hope this helps someone :p

When you deleted cache and data, did you do that through menu>setting>...or did you do that through recovery? Also, try setting up your account again, this time through account and sync settings, then try opening the app. Let me know.:)

I have to assume you mean one Hotmail plus account set up as POP. Are these the settings you used?

Also, since we all know POP is problematic, have you tried the Hotmail Push Settings instead?:)

Lets see if we can get you back to where you were at first, with the app opening before FC's. Hopefully you use Titanium backup. If you do or some equivalent, restore the settings for 'AccountAndSyncSettings' that you had before the Tab Email app. Then see if it will open again before FC's. If it does, then apply the Hotmail Push settings.:)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] dxtrlabs:
I don't use titanium backup so no dice there but i got everything back to stock i renamed the original email.apk and as far as the settings just redid everything.i got it back to before. With the app opening took the file out of the zip and put it in the correct folder with es fileexplorer with root privilege. It opens i see mails they open but if i sync or rotate or try any menu option it fcs. I cleared all caches retried...still fcs mind you I'm rebooting and repairing permissions between every try. Finally erased account and resented.complete fc on open.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:

For right now we have to assume that this will not work in CM7 for some reason. I haven't had a single bite on the thread I opened on their website inviting users there to test the app so we don't have anyone else's experience to judge from. For right now I would put this on the back burner until another CM7 user has something to report. Sorry.:)

I'm not sure if that will help him as he is running cm7. I went to their site and posted, but got no replies. I have no idea if it will work with that Rom at all. I you are aware of some users of cm7 who used SGS tools to download this app, then please tell. We'd both be interested in knowing.:)

I'm all for making instructions as clear as possible. Well, I'll review the two and see where possibly someone could go wrong. But they are the same instructions, nonetheless.:)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:

As of right now I know of none although I did attempt to find out. I went straight to the source, looking for any mention of that issue on the Tab threads with no result. Then my health took a nosedive and here we are. I'll try again, though.:)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:
flashable email

I'm not exactly sure what you are saying here. I've used it on every 2.2 Rom I've had on my phone, but the issue was that it did not work for all exchange versions on 2.2 Roms. This was fixed in 2.2.1, but POP Mail is still problematic because the Adroid app does not properly tag email as 'read' which causes them to be downloaded from the server again and again. Also for some it may be necessary to place all their old emails into a archive file on their pc's to be able to download any new emails with the app to their phones.:)

You're welcome!
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:
flashable email

After review I have decided to stick with what is in the OP. Those instructions are noob friendly and not generic at all. I have no idea why you could not get it working that way, but I tested it extensively myself for both Hotmail and Gmail which I use. Therefore, I know they work. You'll note that the OP also states that the 'Push' settings should work for msn.com and live.com also. Pretty thorough and useful information.:)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] 4walls:
I got Ymail working in IMAP mode and Hotmail working in PUSH mode.

You have pointed out one of the flaws in the directions for 'Push' where I never specifically say to put in your full username although I do for msn and live. I'll fix that. For your Gmail did you do this: FOR GMAIL: Open the email app and tap 'Menu' then 'Account Manager' then 'Add Account'. Type in your 'Username and Password' then select 'Setup Manually'. Out of the three choices choose 'Exchange'. The only thing you need to change here is the server setting to 'm.google.com'. (Again putting in your full username) I tested it and know it works.:)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] 4walls:
I feel a little silly... I got it to work finally. I was adding the "m." to the server setting but leaving it as "gmail.com" rather than "m.google.com"

[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:

I can't test this one because I don't have a Captivate. You didn't say what type of account or what settings. I also cannot test Serendipty either for the same reason. I'm gonna guess that is a 2.2 Rom in which case Corporate exchange will be problematic as well as any type of POP. You'll have to use Imap settings. I would try clearing cache and data in Menu>Settings>applications>Manage applications>all tab-scroll down to app. This has only been tested and working fine in the Roms I and others could directly test which are listed in the OP.:)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:

Need more info: What Rom, what type of account and settings used. The OP is really informative and complete. The fact that this site has been up for so long with so few questions is a testament to that. For those Roms in the OP with the instructions given for settings, problems should not arise.:)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:
flashable email

Your issue I have direct experience with. I tested this extensively on Bi-Winning myself. Had a lot of problems at first but it was mostly with the 'move to folder' function which could be resolved by deleting the account and resetting it up again. A force close after installation would mean doing what I suggested in the post two above this one. Delete cache and data following that path, and reboot.:)

Ahhhh! When I tested the settings all I did was open an account and sent myself a couple of emails but without pictures. I'll test and post back.:)

EDIT: Well, the only account I have working right now is Yahoo, sort of. Gmail and Hotmail will not connect. Messages I send with Yahoo using the app don't reach the account. Checked on my PC. I've been flashing kernels, editing and re-editing my build prop, so who knows? I'm flashing again tonight so hopefully that will clear it all up.:confused:

EDIT: Sorry about the delay but I had to wait until today to setup after flashing. Yahoo and Gmail are working as expected with the app. Gmail is using the same Exchange 'Push' settings as I use with the Hotmail account that appear in the OP. The Hotmail account will set up, but right now no emails will populate. I will continue to investigate and check in later. In the meantime, if anyone finds a solution, please share.
