I configured my phone with Gmail out of the box, it functioned perfect for a few weeks, and now for some reason it will check and download my email, but will error when trying to send any emails.
Any idea why this could be?
Yah, that's happened to me too, I just deleted that gmail account, made another one that checks the same account, and it worked again...kinda annoying, but it's a 2 min process.

I have seen so many repoorts of this over at PPCG and from firends of mine with the TP.
Maybe a GMAIL issue? Not sure but your not alone.
i've tried remaking the account on the phone to no avail. good to know at least I'm not alone!
I started seeing this problem with IMAP servers on WM 6.1, have compiled some info on it here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=374663
I haven't had to recreate any mail accounts after applying the MS WM 6.1 patch linked in that thread. A soft reset is all that's been needed since.
I've got my fingers crossed for WM 6.5 to be a real fix. I'd like to give that 5.2.21014 a try too if it ever comes around again...
go to mail2web.com create a free account (Exchange Support)
go to Gmail settings forward ur gmail incoming mail to [email protected]
now setup push e-mail on ur phone through active sync
ull get the e-mail within 5 seconds of it being received, and u'll save some battery juice cuz ur phone is not checking for new e-mails every now and then.
IMHO it works flawlessly, i have my hotmail and gmail going through push, as u can forward as many e-mail accounts as u want
MOE
As it turns out a second soft reset and delete>remake the account on the phone got my email working again.
Hi there
I've got a problem with my sgs2 and M$ Exchange 2010 SP1.
If I connect to my Exchange account on my SGS2 it works perfectly. After a couple of days, the appointments are not synchronized any more. In no direction.
If I delete the Exchange account on the SGS2 and reconfigure it, everything works again for a couple of days.
I had a look at the log with acatlog. What I found is this:
Code:
07-25 08:32:26.885 E/Kalender(TS)<521>(10509): Uncaught exception in EasSyncServicejava.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException
07-25 08:32:26.925 E/Kalender(TS)<521>(10509): Sync ended due to an exception.
Does anyone know this problem?
Thanks for your Help.
Kind regards,
Steff
Hi, I've got the same problem in Italy ...
From last Saturday, I didn't sync my Google calendar with my SGS2. I think it is a Google problem, but I like to understand what happen ???
No problem about contacts and mails with Google sync.
P.S.:
I've installed yesterday the latest ROM 2.3.4/KG3 with the same problem.
Ciao
Ciao ritima
Sounds interesting. Unfortunatly I'm not using the google calendar. I've got a sync problem with my exchange.
Perhaps it's a calendar app problem?
Kind regards,
Steff
Ciao Steff,
I think not, because the problem was also with before ROM 2.3.3 (from Saturday afternoon). I think there is a problem with Google sync, at least for some Users, like me ...
Ciao
Hi...
Yeah. In your case, it sounds like a google problem. Unfortunatley am i not syncing with google.
Anyway. Good luck

I also have a problem with the calender sync to my exchange server. It works perfectly for a while, including changing group appointment times etc, but then suddenly stops syncing with no warnings about it not syncing. Wouldn't be such a prob except there isn't even an error to tell me my calender is not up to date.
I know its not a server problem because my laptop syncs fine and so does Touchdown on the same device. Unfortunately Touchdown calender only syncs to the internsl Touchdown calender and does not end up in the common Android area otherwise I would give up on using the Samsung exchange sync for calender.
So no-one has any fixes for this apart from removing the account and creating it again? It has happened with every rom I have tried up to G6.
Same problem for me
Hi Guys,
Same problem for me: Syncing calander of my sgs2 with exchange 2010 server stops working after a while. Contacts and e-mail still sync perfectly. When i throw away the account and reinstall it again, everything works fine again for... First time a month, but now only one day.
My laptop syncs fine, also a old windows mobile phone still syncs and a colleage of me using the same server also has no problem with android on his HTC.
Has anyone an idea??
Thanks,
Geerten
So anyone found a solution for this problem???? I've had it for ages and changed roms a number of times.
I think mine stops syncing if I use wifi to sync but I have in no way thoroughly checked this. I only sync once a day (contacts and calender) as I use touchdown for my emails and this is nearly always while I am on mobile data.
I wish it at least gave an error.... but instead it just doesn't sync with no errors and means if you aren't careful its easy for a meeting to be missed as its not updated to my mobile.
I have same problem
Mine has been fine for months and forgot about the issue. But it reared it's ugly head again out of no where.
Hi Guys,
Since about a week ago (XXLPH firmware), my Exchange email stopped working.
Just says Connection Error all the time.
I can wipe the email settings, then enter them again, it will connect and start downloading mail, then stops and says connection error.
My Transformer is fine with all the same settings.
I upgraded the software to XXLPQ, did a full wipe and Factory Reset and still the same.
Any ideas please?
Thanks.
Faced the same problem, reverted back to GB all is well...
Tried lot of things but didn't work with ICS using Samsung email client, although Maildroid was working fine.
Same here, but only with my work account (Exchange 2010) - works fine with my (hosted) personal Exchange account (which is on Exchange 2007 AFAIK).
It's been this way with all ICS leaks. Yesterday I thought I got it working by adding the accounts the other way around, but today I'm getting connection error again. I think it's got something to do with the Device Administrator setting, because I never get that prompt for the second account I add, whereas I'm pretty sure I did on GB.
Using Enhanced Email in the meantime which works fine, but the Samsung client has some great features

I too have the same issue - Connecting to the Exchange Server at work (Exchange 2007), I have no issue. The Exchange Server at home (2010) continually shows up with "Connection Error". XXLPH installed here too.
Me too
Been driving me crazy. I agree it seems to be about the RSA device permissions. I think I'll have to go back to GB. Dammit, I wiped everything and have wasted all of today on this ...

They say replying to yourself is the first sign of madness ...
But I wonder if Samsung will fix this before pushing out the official UK update next week.
Hmmm ... I'm surprised more people haven't reported this.
Same here. Updated yesterday to XXLPQ and have had the Connection Error ever since...

I sent a link to this thread to Samsung Support, let's see what happens...
I've been looking into this (and learning a lot about EAS at the same time) - and have narrowed it down to XXLPH not liking the security policies contained within the Exchange ActiveSync Mailbox Policy that is being used. trouble is, no amount of fiddling has given me a long term solution (I have got it to work for short periods of time though).
I suspect that installing an Exchange 2007 CAS in my infrastructure and pointing my Galaxy S II to that will provide a workaround - but that's hardly a long-term solution. If that works, then forcing the handset to connect using an older version of the ActiveSync protocol should also work. This may be a more achievable workaround if I can figure out how to do it!
it's also failing with gmail/google mail for apps added as an Exchange Activesync. when upgrading from GB, 1 of 2 of my gapps accounts stopped getting new mail. after a full wipe, both accounts now fail to fetch any mail or folders. logcat shows the error "Email:SecFeatureWrapper(6658): Was not initiated" while refreshing mails.
I'm having the exact same issues but for me they seem to be related to Hotmail (and it's Exchange 2003-like EAS protocol. The moment I add m.hotmail.com as an Exchange account, my other corporate and Office365 stop syncing.
The moment I remove the Hotmail account, all other Exchange accounts start working again. Very strange.
You guys added Exchange2003 or Hotmail mailboxes? I found this issue on nearly all SGS2 ICS build.. currently on LPQ.

Aha! That explains it. I couldn't figure out why everything was working tickety-boo this morning and then the Exchange (Work) stopped working. Must have been cause I added hotmail as an exchange server too.
Indeed that also explains why I thought it was working when I added the other account first - I guess it was in fact working up to the point where I added the second account ;-)

I only have Exchange 2003. It was working fine until about two weeks ago.
Trying K-9 mail now, Touchdown doesn't work either.
I've tried the exchange mail app from one of the ICS leaks. My main issue is the scheduled mail just not seem to work. For peak time I don't need push mail, only needs to check every 4 odd hours, but even though I've set it up like that it still keeps on pushing mail whenever a new email comes in.
Can anyone confirm that the email client works properly with only one account installed?
I would be happy enough to do that, and use the MS Hotmail dedicated app for my personal email if I knew it worked.
Anyone doing this?

No not even with one account.
Exchange 2010 Problem
I had this problem with an Exchange 2010 account when the email retrieval size was all works just fine on 100kb, no connection errors at all. Although Hotmail seems fine when email retrieval size is all.
I have used all ICS Beta and official ICS Versions. All Version have the Exchange Bug.
I recently solved a real pain of an email issue I was having, and wanted to pass along the experience. I had tried searching these forums for several days, but didn't quite find my problem, and didn't find the solution all in one place. With that in mind, I'm hoping this information helps someone, even if a bit of it may be covered in other threads (sorry if so).
I had upgraded recently to JB 4.1.1, and was having a lot of problems getting my corporate/exchange email account to work. The calendar and contacts would work sometimes, and the email never got past the "waiting for sync" screen. Anytime the calendar and contacts would work, they would break after a reboot of the phone.
I also found that sometimes exchange account would stick around after it stopped working, and other times it would disappear (from the Android settings > accounts list) completely. I had set the accounts up both through the stock email app, and through a third - party email app (Enhanced Email, a good app).
I tried deleting and recreating the accounts, with varying settings (port numbers, accepting all security certificates, etc.). Later on, I went to my company's online web access for Exchange, and deleted all the mobile connections so that it would create a new connection for my current phone and ROM. I recreated the account (for what seemed like the 50th time) after that. Still no good.
The thing that made the difference: I finally read a tip somewhere to force stop the (stock) email client, and clear its cache and data. After that, the email app needed to be set up again, but email synched for the first time since I installed this ROM, and my calendar and contacts work reliably. It's been several days and reboots, and no further problems have come up.
I hope this helps someone, and again, apologies if the information is duplicative. I couldn't find it all in one place, and was really beating my head against the wall trying to find a fix.

Hi there, I think im glad i found this thread although not sure it will help with my corporate mail problem. My problem exists only with contacts not syncing from my corporate exchange account. My mail and calendar is ok just no contacts sync.
You mention to force stop the stock email client, can you advise the steps and exact name of the process? Do you mean in manage apps - All - Email ? I cant seem to stop that process its all greyed out.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, due to my role i really need my exchange contacts to sync.
Cheers,
Hi guys,
My experience is different.
If you have problems to sync your email you need to clear all previous mobile connections from outlook (via outlook web access) and set up your account from zero on the device.
Quick question why do you use a third party email client? Do you have Samsung device? Got the same problem and had to move to a asop (CM10)
Samsung email client and exchange doesn't work well since the original Galaxy.

solution for me
For me what solved was a solution I found in another post here in the forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1774978&page=2
In summary:
"Settings --> Data Usage --> Menu --> and check Auto Sync Data
Try setting up Exchange account again and you'll see the prompt to activate a Device Administrator this time. "
So I too had syncing issues, sometimes it would take days to get an email even when I would manually refresh it. But I decided to go through and manually delete EVERY email in my gmail account, I went through and made copies of text and saved attachments through the last 7 years with google and just deleted. Everything. Sent, archieved, everything...and then hit the trashcan and deleted permanently...
What is interesting though is within MINUTES of completely wiping it all my gmail sync started working again. No joke.
I had my girlfriend send me a message, and she sent it and I recieved it while it still showed "sending" on her screen. I then went to craigslist and sent an email to myself through yahoo and got it instantly. I then emailed someone who had something I wanted and you know people never like to respond but they responded within a 2 minutes and I got it no problems.
So is this a sync conspiracy? My gmail seriously wouldn't sync but then does perfectly again just like it should.
If you have the time I recommend trying it. The whole process for me took about 30 minutes because I had to disconnect my yahoo from gmail and go back to seperate apps. But everything works great.
Let me know if this works for you!
Also, Dirty Unicorns, Franco 14e, latest PN gapps.
So I've got a kind of weird question for you, did you happen to enable the star wars theme for your Gmail account? The one that would change like everything in Google to something star wars related?
I don't think that's the case. Sometimes or receive emails instantly, other times, it syncs randomly. My email only has maybe about 8 emails that I didn't delete while the rest of it is clean.

While what you're saying may be true, 1) The syncing problem seems to be random in regards to when it starts happening, I can install the app and have it work fine for a week or two and then it stops, and 2) Even if that DID fix the problem, it's not something I'd be willing to do.
It's pretty freaking embarrassing that Google email works totally fine on iOS devices and has big issues on Google devices.
I also have the syncing issue, sometimes it's fine, other times, no email until I manually refresh.
i feel like i've read somewhere before that this may be related to the battery optimization feature in 6.0 (doze mode), and if it's disabled for the gmail app then the syncing issues should go away. but i'm not 100%, maybe this will spark an idea from someone else as to what's causing that for you.
So no ones willing to take the leap and delete everything and try it? My gmail has been great for days...
Maybe your email was full that's why it wouldn't sync.
I faced the same sync problem when my Gmail got close to full. Once I made room, everything worked well. Since you deleted your emails that created more space, hence it started syncing.
I have to say that Inbox doesn't suffer the sync problem.

I had less than 700 emails...total. Sent/everything. Idk I tested it on my friends Moto X Pure and he gets emails now too...and he barely had 50 emails.
I just don't get it.

+1. The Inbox app has always synced fine for me. I switched to it last year after having intermittent sync issues with the Gmail app.
I added my gmail account to the Outlook app, that seems to be working fine, bit easier to get used to than Inbox too!
