Hi,
Has anyone managed to get the gmail web application running in offline mode on the Hero?

Gmail Browser vs. Gmail App
Not sure, anyone understood my question.
I personally think that the Gmail App is actually completely obsolete. Especially when you think that it doesn't allow you to download certain attachments.
The mobile browser gmail interface is - amazing. So why have an extra application running when you can only login to gmail offline with your browser? Since the Gmail App is not integrated into the TouchFlo interface anyways?
The questions remains, why the mobile browser interface (after you click on the "faster gmail" link is not doing what it is supposed to be doing aside from having an entry mail.google.com in the gears settings of your browser?
I use Google Apps for Domains. I hadn't tried to log into my mail via the web browser, but I just tried it today.
When I logged in, I was given a message that an update was available that would was faster and would allow me to compose and read email offline. I accepted the update, which appears to be a Gears update, so it looks like it is probably working fine.
Regards,
Dave

I did the same thing and when you look into your advanced browser settings you can see that gears now seems to be configured for mail.google.com. The questions remains though, if you can login offline to your apps or non-apps gmail account? I haven't been able to....

Hi guys,
My unlocked unrooted Hero has been fine but since yesterday the HTC mail programme is not updating folders from my gmail account as it should. It is set to check every 10 mins but I can see it's been hours or overnight in some cases and no update has taken place. It manually refreshes ok but anyone know why it would sometimes stop doing it automatically? This is a bit worrying as email is important for work. Oh, and I'm using an always on wi-fi connection not mobile data.
Yeah. Dont kill the mail app with a task manager
I wondered that too once.
Thanks for that - seems to work. Strangely google mail app also opens opens up with the htc mail app. Can i shut that down? What is the relationship between the htc mail and google mail app - does the htc app use google mail?? As far as I can tell its impossible to remove google mail app to simplify things. Any thoughts appreciated!
the google mail app runs all the time as it is a push mail client. That and it'snot open source and is built in to the operating system.
seems a bit of a funny way to do it if you have a google mail account, why not just sign in and use the google mail app to get your gmail...thats what it's there for!
or is this a second gmail account?

I know I could do that. However the HTC mail allows me to use the widget and the icon on the front screen shows the number of new emails. I thought as I'd bought a new phone why not take advantage of it but seems like it complicates things. No big deal though and thanks for your input!
I have motorola defy running CM10, and I can sync chrome bookmarks using chrome for android. But the app is a bit laggy on defy, so I am using stock android browser and here is a method to sync bookmark between chrome browsers and android browser:
When you go to Android browser it only shows your local bookmarks. Whenever you try to go to settings -> accounts and sync it says that there is a problem in Sync Browser, yet it doesn’t say what exactly the problem is. If you have faced this problem here is the solution you were continuously looking for.
How to Fix Sync Browser Problem in Android?
I identify this problem as a bug when interfacing different Google products. The root cause of problem is Google desktop browser supports encryption for all data types while Android browser supports only for passwords. If you have already encrypted entire data only thing you can do is clear all the data and start it again with only password encryption. Here is how to do it and sync Chrome bookmarks with Android browser.
Go to Google Dashboard confirming your password.
Scroll down to section chrome sync and click on Stop sync and delete data from Google.
This will delete entire synced browser data in Google account and it might take few minutes.
Now open Google chrome, go to Settings.
There you can find sign in section. Click sign in to chrome. Here you will have to generate Application specific password if you have enabled Two Step verification.
Then it will take you to Confirm sync settings window.
Click advance and make sure you have selected encrypt passwords only. If you encrypt all synced data android browser won’t be able to work with them.
Click OK to proceed with syncing.
In your android Smartphone go to Settings -> Apps -> All -> browser and Clear data.
Now go to Settings -> Accounts & sync. You will be able to see Sync browser is working fine now.
Open the browser and go to Bookmarks. Now you can see all the Bookmarks that you have in desktop browser in your Android Smartphone browser as well.

I had this issue before, i did what you said, it worked. Now just few days ago, as i wiped chrome sync/restarted it, the stock browser sync started to fail again.
Problem is i DID NOT select ENCRYPT ALL, only passwords, yet it definitly refuse to sync, no matter how many time i delete/restart sync on chrome, wipe data on android..
I know it's an old post,but... Thank you! This thing bothered me for last week.I didn't do anything,just changed rom from cm10.1 to paranoid and this sh.t happened.

This sync browser solution it's only for Android 4.0 and 4.1 not for gingerbread.
You need to use an special .apk that is men't to do just that. I thinkbit called ChromeBookmarSync.apk or something like that. Just google "AOSP browser without root" and you will fibd it. I can't give you any links becouse im on mobile, but you will find it.

Hi, I don't get to see the Gmail app in desktop Mode? Is that right? Also, I use my personal phone for work and have G-suite and Google apps duplicated as personal and work (seperate) I can't see any of these either? Is there any way of getting any of this to the Desktop? Thanks.
I have same problem and I find a way to open it....
First open destkop mode and search gmail in chrome, google said gmail already installed. Then click the link in google and Gmail app open in desktop mode..........
Hi, yes thanks. Another way is to open the notifications and if you click on a Gmail notification it opens directly as well. You can then pin Gmail to the Task Bar and it is always available then. Same with the other Google apps that don't appear for some reason (Calendar, etc...). One caveat, if you are using G Suite and have a work Gmail, then no mater what the pinned Gmail icon will only open your personal email. You can open the work ones form notifications though.
after months of annoying targeted ads I finally got tired of facebook and uninstalled it from my phone
installed separate browser specific for facebook on every PC so it cant share date with anything
I also installed firefox on my phone to use for facebook alone. it worked great until I uninstalled messenger
that's when I really saw how desperate facebook wants my info. im assuming all the goodies were loaded into messenger since it needed pretty much every permission available
and facebook is now like a tweaker trying to get access back to my phone by forcing me to use messenger.
it blocked access to my messages from mobile page and from desktop page as well
always redirecting me to app store
even when I disable app store it simply left blank screen when I click on messages.
this is really disturbing to me how much it wants to spy on me.
so now im trying to figure out if theres a way to access my messages without having facebook app and messenger app
I tried using tinfoil facebook but its also blocked from accessing my messages.
how can I get my messages to work again?

This isn't Facebook spying on you or targeting you specifically. It's been the case for a while now that you can't access your messages from the mobile Facebook website without having Messenger.
It does the exact same thing to me if I try, it opens Messenger. It's for everyone. The change was made some time ago now.
Put Facebook/Messenger Lite on your phone and use that. Or any of the Facebook website wrapper apps like Swipe for Facebook or Metal.
Hello,
I wanted to know which email App you use. Because the original one I don't like it and Gmail on quick app is very awful :/
So if you can answer to this it would be great!
I use Gmail. Yeah Gookill is just evil.
Use a cloud based only app like Gmail.
That eliminates malware completely unless you chose to download it.
Gmail is excellent with spam and I have never gotten malware through it except if not mindful of downloaded files.
My Yahoo email got locally wifi hacked once, I don't trust it's encryption now.
Outlook is malware central
Yahoo mail, with Gmail and Yahoo account.
I have no notifications, but I check it anyway, several times a day.
Aquamail, the best.
Nine -> Just get it from Petal Search. If you paid for it on playstore you can add your subscription on the Huawei without issue, you just need to paste the order or something in the app.
Blue Mail

Thanks to MicroG settings, now I have notifications too.
Hi, I've been using Spark, I tried also BlueMail but didn't like it at all, what made me convince about Spark is that it syncs also your gmail folders, so everything keeps as if you were using gmail app, also your signatures, contacts an many more features that makes me forget about gmail native app.
It's available in app gallery, good luck!
Another cool app imo -> "Re:Work". https://rework.so/
I was using "Nine" previously so this is their new app and even had promotion for "Nine" users.
It's not available in the app gallery but it can be downloaded.
