I recently switched to CyanogenMod 7 R1. I had done a Titanium Backup of my apps before I switched, but didn't realise that it wouldn't back up stock apps. I really love the stock e-mail app which came with the phone, it handles g-mail better than the g-mail app or the Cyanogen e-mail app IMO. Is there a way for me to get the app on Cyanogen or no?
Thanks!

Last I heard its part of the Sense UI. You couldnt use it without having Sense installed and in that case you might as well run one of the Iced Glacier ROMs.
I thought the app was there, its just the widget that's gone.
I never used the widget, just the app. Any hope for this?

I was using K-9 as my e-mail app until yesterday I realized I could just forward all of my e-mail accounts to gmail. k-9 is an excellent program, but it wasn't useful any longer after I realized I could do this. Plus, gmail's interface is much smoother and easier to use.
But Sense did have a great email app, but since going to CM, I had no choice but to try alternatives. Gmail, however, is great so far.
What I like about k9 is that it handles attachments better.

I would like this too. The CM RC1 email client is pretty weak.

Hi,
I want to know can i use stock Atrix Email Music and other APK's with CM7 pre beta 4 ???
if yes and no then can any one post the list or some thing or direct me to corect path
I don't believe you can use the Atrix apk with stock. I'm pretty sure at least in the case of email it uses the motoblur backend for communication and accounts which obviously isn't present in stock.

Actually i am referring stock to Motorola provided GB for Atrix, so if i install all provided APK e.g. accounts Email and other apk which are interlinked with each other then can i use stock applications on CM7 ?
CM7 has no blur features in it, so any stock moto app that has blur integration won't work at all.

Probably if the APK's come from an AOSP release.
Ok ppl thanks for the answers, only last question which email application is the best out there (which looks and feels like Stock email application)

CM7 has always come with email in the past......not really sure they would remove it on the atrix
**edit**
i just looked, and email is definitely there...
Thanks then it must be my fault, let me recheck.
I found the CM7 email app to be pretty flaky for me. Sometimes it can't sync, or it'll keep grabbing emails that I've previous deleted days/weeks ago.
I have several emails, hotmails, gmails, ISP email, etc. So the default gmail or hotmail one isn't enough.
[Edit]
Found an app in a different thread called K-9 Mail
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.fsck.k9&hl=en
Just been playing with it for an hour or so, and I seems to be a fantastic email app.
Enhanced Email is best imo.

I actually prefer maildroid over everything else. Been using it from day one of the Atrix's release.

Enhanced Email is good. So is K-9 Mail, which I use.
Depends on how you are setting up your email account...
If using Exchange, Enhanced Email is pretty nice.
However, if using POP 3, I found Enhanced Email to have the same flaky bugs you are experiencing now.
I ended up using K-9 Mail. I did not like the icon for K-9 so I also installed K-9 Icon. It is a more professional icon/widget that just has an envelope with a message counter (although the counter only updates every minute). Plus K-9 Mail/K-9 Icon are free. I like free.
It's clearly not advertised well, but Kaiten is the new and improved version of K-9. I've been using it for over a year now.

It should be noted that Kaiten (a play on K-10, the successor to K-9), like Enhanced Email, is a paid app,while K-9 is still free. Nothing against paid apps, mind you--I use quite a few. I just wanted to make it clear.
hi there!
i hope this is the right forum. i have installed cm9 on my samsung i9001 (galaxy s plus) so far so good, beta 2 is running smoothly.
sadly there is no standard email application included in that install, or correct me if i am wrong, at least i couldnt find any.
and whats even more sad is i cant download the gmail app from the market because of my location and something i believe is a name infringement or whatever...
so i am in need of a descent email app. i am currently running a gmail.apk for the v2.3.5. which is kinda buggy...
i think the best for me would be the email app that comes with the sgs+ on stock rom or an up to date gmail.apk would be nice too.
since email is kinda delicate i dont want to use any 3rd party app from the market or is there anything trustworthy?
please help me!
thanks in advance!
Try K9 mail. If an email app is not trustworthy there would be bad reviews.

I just switched from sense to AOSP and I love everything except the facebook syncing. I miss how on sense it just did it.
Now there is no way to get my facebook friends' phone numbers. What can I do?
Thanks!
This may help idk. I don't use Facebook but I stumbled across this thread.

Hi, I've always liked Kaiten Mail, as an alternative.
The added good thing with those alt apps is that you can restore many accounts at once with Titanium Backup

My problem with Kaiten Mail and a number of other alternatives is the extremely tortuous way of getting Exchange email to work. I still think the stock email client is good enough. I have configured virtually all my email accounts (including Exchange and gmail) in it without having to wave my hand 7 times to the violet band of the rainbow!

Oh, I guess that remark is fair enough.
I do not need Exchange, so I do not have to suffer through it's setup
Kaiten mail has many options, so i guess it works, but not easily :/
