PLEASE READ THE OP! YOU MAY NOT THINK SO, BUT THERE IS INFORMATION HERE THAT MAY SAVE YOU TIME AND HEADACHES!

This is a flashable zip of the Galaxy Tab email app for 2.2.1 Roms. It does not work properly with exchange in 2.2 Roms, so please do not use if you are on a 2.2 Rom and need to use exchange. If you do not use exchange and are on a 2.2 or 2.2.1 Rom, it will work fine!

HISTORY: This app was ported to the Vibrant last year and was modded by XDA member, 'smoothone' who fixed the resolution for the Vibrant. Before that, the app was too large for the lower resolution Vibrant screen. It had many problems for exchange users which were only resolved when Froyo 2.2.1 was released. This app has extraordinary functionality, including multi-delete and support for all versions of exchange. It doesn't exactly support 'push' for corporate exchange accounts, but you can set it to sync on an interval of five minutes.

It has been tested and reported working perfectly in both Bionix Frost, Simply Galaxy/Sweet Honey, and Bi-Winning all 2.2.1 Roms. If you encounter any problems, please be clear in describing what exactly is going wrong. Screenshots are in the second and third posts below.

Thanks to krad42 we now have a version with security removed! He can explain it better than me.

Credit: We all owe 'Smoothone' a big thanks for fixing the resolution of the app for our phones!

Thank anyone who helps you out with any problems by hitting their 'Thanks' button and please, be civil. Enjoy!:)

Thank you for this as well as the rom explanation. I've been trying to get it to work with Bionix V1.3.1 and now I know the problem.

Wow, that was fast! I hadn't finished setting things up yet, lol! That reminds me that it works fine if you are not using exchange and I should add that to the OP!:)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] krad42:
I saw in another post that you have one that gets by the security lock tool. Can you post that version.

Thanks
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] krad42:
Seems like exchange issues are dependant on the version of the exchange server that someone is synching with. I had all kinds of issues when my job had exchange 2007. Now they are running 2010 and I have not had any issues with stock or tab versions.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:
email.apk

Yes, I can. That one is the stock version however. I think I can find it although it is not in a flashable. If you need it that way, let me know.:)

XDA member, djmz, modded this one.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:

Thanks for that information!:)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] krad42:
Can you post tab version with sec bypass. Thanks.

The stock one did work with no security lock down..

Raymond, do you use it with Trigger without any issues?
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:
Security bypass

Sorry it took me so long to reply, but I can't connect in Firefox for some reason today either on Windows or Ubuntu and IE isn't working so fast either although it is working. Anyway, sad to say I don't know of a Tab version with the security disabled. There were two tools able to do that made for use with HTC phones. Other devs modded those applications and got it working for other devices. Problem was no one managed to do it for the Galaxy Tab version that I know of. It was about that time that Froyo 2.2.1 was released and all efforts seemed to die out. I did try to contact smoothone and let him know there was a tool to remove security, but he had received a ban from XDA and was unreachable. Another user posted that he was leaving xda after his ban. If you have the ablility, I can put you in touch with those threads tonight if you want to take a crack at modding it for the Tab version.:)

Edit: I'll try looking into it tomorrow also, but I can make no promises of success.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:
flashable zip

Yes I do, but I don't use exchange. I use it to access both my yahoo and gmail accounts. The only strange thing that happens is I get an error message when I use the app while connected to my wifi, but all the emails load anyway.:)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] krad42:
If you have the threads handy I'll take a look.

Thanks

is there a certain way you have to set this up? i went to setup my yahoo and it keep giving me invalid username or password...

I had very little chance of finding this again but luckily I came by my old post to, smoothone. That link is the ticket to one of those apps I told you about. I'll try for the other one tonight!:D

Edit: Found it! This is the thread where that stock app with the security removed originated. Djmz, I think did it. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=655649
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] krad42:
Thanks for the link, I was able to get the new tab email client working with no security policy getting pushed down. Confirmed working on Sweet Honey Exchange server 2010. Modified client attached for anyone that wants to try it out.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:
Flashable Gtab email app

Sorry I missed you post earlier. I used to get that error message when connected to wifi on my yahoo account. I just checked, and I don't get it anymore. (Strange) I would try deleting your yahoo account on the phone and going to menu>setting>applications>manage applications>all tab> scroll down to account and sync settings (actually it's third in the list on my phone) tap that and delete any cache and data (if there is any). Then scroll down to the email app and delete cache and data for that (there definitely should be some). Then reboot and reset your yahoo account. Let me know if that works.:)

Edit: Sorry I forgot all about Imap! Something changed when setting up yahoo in android from my last rom to this one. I had the instructions in my file the whole time. The setup menu on the phone will take you through the incoming server settings first (incoming server,then incoming port, then check a box for 'ssl' required...) and then you can set up the outgoing server settings.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:
You certainly are fast! You know, I pm'd several devs about doing what you did today and never got a reply. Thank you so very much! I have a question though: Since you had no problems with the original or stock versions with exchange 2010 why did you want a version minus the security feature? And, do you mind if I place you .apk in a flashable zip and offer it to 2.2 users for testing (I'll make sure to credit you). Security wasn't the only problem with the Tab email unfortunately. I'd like to get some feedback from exchange users still on 2.2 Roms.:)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] krad42:
I was sick of using pin mode to unlock my phone every time I locked it. Keep in mind there is a purpose of the security tools, prevent unauthorized access and remote wipe incase your phone gets lost. I am actually using delay lock app from market with this setup so that the phone will prompt for pin after a set period of time, but not every time I close out. Go ahead and make a flashable if you would like, hopefully it will be useful for others.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:
Flashable Gtab email app

That makes sense! I've heard other make the same complaint, but they didn't know about that app to delay locking. I just posted the wifi app from Bionix Frost over on Simply Honey. I couldn't find out if anyone had tried using it since it is the only other 2.2.1 Rom I know of available for the Vibrant. Care to give it a shot?:)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] krad42:
Ill check it out, been waiting patiantly for wifi calling on sweet honey.

Edit: tried it and no go. Never registers.

Too bad, that is one reason I haven't flashed Sweet Honey yet! I hope exploding boy gets that solved quick!:)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Kwaii49:
I really really like this email version. It's so clean and pretty with many functions. Thank you to everyone who contributed to that.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] explodingboy70:
Ok I have just one issue.

First of all exchange works for me and I can send and receive all email, exchange and non exchange account. My problem is that I have my non exchange accounts set to check every 30 minutes and every 30 minutes I'm getting notification saying that I have new mail but its the same email I just haven't read it. For example I just got a new email notification for my Hotmail account but its the same 2 emails that have been there since 8am.

Any ideas. I've looked in the apk but don't see anything to do with notifications. Granted I didn't dig deep as I'm not real sure where to start looking.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:
Email flashable

I'll see if I can repeat the issue with my non exchange accounts set for 30 mins sync.:)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] explodingboy70:
If you can repeat it you'll probably be able to at 5 minutes, the lowest. I just changed mine to that to see. Report back in 5 lol

Same at 5 minutes for me.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] keospeedwagon:
I am having the same issue. I have three non-exchange accounts, 2 imap and 1 pop. The 2 imap accounts work perfectly. The pop account, however, does not. I can compose emails, but can not receive. Well, I get a notification that I have received an email, but when I check my inbox, no new emails are listed. I didn't have this issue with the stock or gb email. I have no idea why it does this, but it's quite frustrating because I love the look and use of the tab email, but had to revert back to the gb email so I can do business.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:
Email flashable

I already had mine set to 5 mins and wasn't having a problem. I was getting all my notifications and they were not repeating. That's why I decided to try setting up conditions as close to yours as I could. From what I understand that is the proper way to debug. Anyway, after I changed my sync interval to thirty minutes, I get no notifications at all. So, I started looking and there is no recent posts anywhere that exactly mimic your issue that I could find, although there were some back in early 2010. I searched the android email app first and I did not find any resolutions. It seems that pop mail was a prime suspect and possibly some inconstintcy between account and sync settings and the sync interval of the app itself. It was a problem that affected a very small number of users as the posts indicated others using the same app not having the same issue. I'll spend a little time directly searching the tab threads for any identical issues, but I don't have much hope.:)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:
Email flashable

The few problems I was able to find that were identical to this one all pointed at 'pop' mail. Like I posted above, there was no evident solution.:D
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:
Email flashable

After several hours of searching the Tab forums and Threads I can find not one single person reporting the same problem. I didn't have it when I had my phone to sync every 5 mins, but now that I've changed it, I get no sound notification at all. (Strange). If I get anymore reports of repeated sound notifications, I'll flag that in the OP.:D

Good came of it maybe. I may have found a way to get real 'Push' through Hotmail! I'll test it tomorrow!
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Vibrantnew-b:
Exact same issue for me. Notification shows new email, but nothing in the inbox.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:
Flashable Gtab email app

What type of account is it? Imap, pop, exchange?:)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Vibrantnew-b:
Comcast (pop)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:
Email flashable

What I don't get is why don't more people report a problem with pop mail. There were no reports on the Tab forums at all, the only ones I found were on phones from early 2010. Is there any reason you need to have you email set up as pop instead of imap?:confused:
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Vibrantnew-b:
Not to sound like a total idiot but I'm really not sure of the difference. I may have a bigger problem than trying to get this tab email to work though. If I keep flashing and modifying my phone like I have been, my wife's going to be looking for a 12-step program to put me in.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:
Email flashable

LOL, yeah, I'm tired of flashing right now. I want to install my ffc on Simply Honey, but I won't do it until the wifi issue gets resolved. The camera banding resolution is just around the corner. I just want to stay on something for a while. I just tested the settings for push in 'Hotmail' according to the instructions that I found and it's setup! Now I'm going to test if it'll actually push the emails.:)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Vibrantnew-b:
I had no problem sending, even pulled some emails into the inbox but within a few minutes they disappear. I have it set to check every 5 minutes, so sure enough every 5 minutes I get an email notification but nada in the inbox.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:
Email flashable

Well, looks like I'll be updating the OP! I have real Hotmail 'Push' working! Now let's see if the other instructions for 'Push' in Gmail works. That will be really big if it does.:D
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:
Email flashable

From what little I understand about how pop works, that kinda makes sense. The email sits on a server somewhere until you actually open it. Then it is gone for good, at least on the phone. I think if accessed on a PC the emails remain in your inbox after being downloaded from the server, but with Android on a phone, it doesn't seem to work properly. I think if you never pulled them into you inbox meaning they remained on the server, you would get repeated notifications based on your sync interval even though no new emails have been sent to you. From what little evidence I've seen, this is the problem. Definitely something is not right with pop in android mobile devices. But then why no mention of this on the Tab forums?:confused:
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Vibrantnew-b:
Raymond,

I appreciate you digging into it. I may have to do some more reading or just ditch Comcast and switch to my gmail account.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:
Email flashable

Well, Ive got both Hotmail and Gmail doing real push with the Galaxy Tab. That's something I've seen a lot of people agonize over in the threads. I'll update the OP tomorrow. I know it's redundent since Gmail does it automatically, but if you want you can set up the GTab email in real push now. That's why a lot of people won't use it.:)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] smali26:
i am having the same problem. However there are no new emails sometimes and when i check the actual mailbox there is mail in it.

I hope someone can fix this. Thanks
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] smali26:
there is not many problems reported with the tab, because it works on the tab and was made for the tab.

The problem is it does not work on any other device properly.

I have a tab and a friend has one and we use it all day long and it works great.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] bfranklin1986:

Connection Error

I got this set up on my Vibrant (Atriarc 2.2.1 ROM), and it pulled in messages from yesterday, but now it doesn't pull in any emails from my Exchange account. I hit the sync button and it gives me "Connection Error."

My hotmail is working fine, I believe.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:
Email flashable

I beg to differ with you. This app was problematic on the Tab until the Froyo 2.2.1 update. I've been monitoring this app since December. It had many problems in addition to those related to exchange. Also, out of all the people now use a very small percentage are reporting problems. So far it has been linked to POP mail, not only by testimony, but by the research I did on the issue last night. Furthermore, I have it working fine with Yahoo with an interval of 5 minutes sync, Hotmail with real push, and Gmail with real push. I'll post those instructions tonight, I'm having a busy day. I suggest that if you are using POP, don't. Just delete you account in the app and reset it up as imap according to the instructions in the OP. Of course, if you are using Hotmail or Gmail, the instructions I'll post tonight will benefit you.:)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:

Sorry, but I'll look into that issue later. I won't be free until tonight. I hope you've read what few pages are here and are up on all your options.:)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] cccheel:
I have, but I haven't seen this error reported.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] krad42:
If you are using version with exchange security make sure that exchange security is setup as admin on your phone under settings security device admin. If you unchecked that option you will no longer sync up if your required to use it.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] mattb3:
I'm using the no security version if the tab email on a 2.2 rom and it seems to work well. The only problem I've had is that there doesn't seem to be a vibrate option, which is kind of a bummer. Any ideas for workarounds.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] cccheel:
Security

I hope this isn't a stupid question, but how do I know if I am using a version with exchange security?
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:
Email flashable

Correct, there is no vibrate option in 'Notification Settings'. I think your best bet is a third party app that will notify you of incoming emails. I recommend 'NoLed' the absolute best app for the Vibrant out there, in my opinion. It has a vibrate option and a lot of other settings. It is free from the Market.:)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:
Email flashable

May I ask why you are using exchange at all? How can you use it but not know how it works? I'm not saying I know how it works, but you can believe if I had a job that required it's use, I would know how to set it up. Did you read anything in the OP? It would take less than a minute of reading the OP to answer your question. Not trying to be smart or rude, but I'm just really puzzled.:eek:
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:

Thanks, krad, it was my hope that posters in this thread would help each other out. I appreciate that as I know nothing about exchange.:)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:

[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:
Email flashable

Anyone with the POP mail problem, could you check to see if any of those emails that you get recurring notifications for contain attachments?
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] keospeedwagon:
I get notifications for all emails, with or without attachments, but the emails themselves never arrive in my inbox on my phone.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] cccheel:
Wow. Really? I did read the OP. There is nothing in there pertaining to my particular question problem. Please show me where it s we ys anything about a connection error. I flashed this app. It pulled in a month's worrh of mail. It pulled in unread mail from the day I flashed it. After that, no more mail comes through.

As to your question regarding my email, I use exchange because I work for a University. Contrary to what you might believe, not everyone on an exchange server uses pin unlocks and other security. I'm not some stupid noob too lazy to read before posting, and I resent your attitude toward me. It's stuff like this that pushes people away from these forums.

Now, I would appreciate any help in resolving this issue. If not, I will just go back to stock email.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Poser:
Gmail "push" settings do not work for me. Server times out (can not connect). Great app though.

FYI: normal gmail settings do work (imap.gmail.com, smtp.gmail.com)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:
Email flashable

So just to be clear, you are saying that after installing the app, your inbox never populated a single email? This would be a new twist.:)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] Poser:

what are your exact server settings (out and in) for gmail?
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:
Email flashable

This was why your question had me puzzled. See right there, one zip is labled email_gtab.zip while the other is labled security_removed.zip Only you know which one you downloaded.

Now, if the reply to you query wasn't solved by the answer given by krad42, I can tell you that there are only three instances where I've seen others have that connection error. The first was when they set up their accounts on their network at work and then tried to access emails from another network, or they set up the accounts on their home wifi network and then couldn't access emails at work. I honestly can't remember which it was. The second affected me myself. I don't use corporate exchange at all and I used to get that error whenever I connected to my wifi network at home with the Tab email app back when I was running Nero V5. I had set up my accounts while on 3g and on 3g it worked fine. (For some reason on the current Rom that I am running, that issue has resolved itself.) The third and only other instance where I've seen the connection error was when the app is trying to populate emails while on edge. If checking for any of these instances does not resolve your problem, I don't know what else to tell you.:)
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] RaymondPJR:
Email flashable

I changed my gmail to 'Push' last night so I only had to worry about incoming server settings. Before that they were the same as my Yahoo account, those settings in the OP. Maybe I should reconfigure those directions to what one would actually see while doing it. You are led through the process of the incoming server first and must check 'ssl', then the server information is synced, then you must do the outgoing server settings and again check 'ssl'. In both cases the port number automatically changes to the correct one as I remember.:)

Edit: Make sure that you full email address is in the address field. I've sometimes seen it populate my email without '@google.com' at the end which will error out.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] cccheel:
My question regarding security was in regard to my exchange server, not the app I flashed.

This morning I flashed the no security one as well, but I am still not getting emails.
[Vibrant Themes and Apps] bfranklin1986:

I'm pretty sure this is the same problem for all three of you. I think I am correct in saying all three are using POP mail. Did any of you try manually refreshing the email app? Bottom left corner. Let me know what happened.:)

I see something about a "delay Lock" (as described in the OP) app on the market...but i searched and it does not come up...Is it under a different name???

BTW something weird is going on with exploding boy and this app. Turns out the version currently posted in his OP has security removed and the modification date on the .apk is March 10, 2011. Didn't you use what was posted in his thread first?
