Does anyone know how to select all emails and apply read all - please tell me Samsung with all its might made this a feature available in the most powerful phone on the planet!!!
Any ideas???
Nope.... The only way you will have this is by either using the server's web mail service or a third-party App like K9.
Hi,
I'm using the native Email client in CM9 with Exchange and was wondering if there was any way to enable notification when an email arrives in a subfolder. From my searching, it looks like Google has disregarded this feature request. This is rather strange as the Gmail client allows notifications for subfolders.
I know that Touchdown and Enhanced Email support subfolder notifications but I would prefer to use the native client if possible.
Do the CM guys touch the Email APK at all or just bundle it 'as is' from ICS source? I guess I could dust off old skills and start hacking the source myself...
All in all, I'm very happy with CM9. The notification bit is just a tad annoying.
Cheers!

This has been a major gripe from me over the past year or so. Every other phone OS manufacturer has this feature built in except for Android. It's not like this is something that only a few people would use. I have rules like crazy for my work email and hate the fact that I have to run 2 different email setups to get everything to work right.
Stock app doesn't do sub-folder replications
Enhanced Email screws up big time on contact creation.
So I'm stuck setting up the stock app to just pull my contacts while using EE to pull subfolder emails notifications.

I have one folder in particular I need to monitor (autonomous alarm emails from network elements). I tried using the Email widget but there is an issue with that not updating. Bleh. I guess I'm kinda screwed unless Google releases an update or I write a patch.
Hmmm... searching Google I'm hearing noises of other firmware that have patched the Email client allowing notification for subfolders. I'll have to dig into this more later. 'Twould be cool if it was a trivial patch easily applied to current ICS/CM9 Email tree.

My GS2 running GB 2.36 doesn't support folders, but I have used EE and are currently using touchdown. The strange thing is my Acer tablet supports folders in both Honeycomb and ICS.
i noticed the other day that if you go into a subfolder using the stock app and press the menu button that you can set it up to sync. I receive so many email that I can't say for sure if the notification window notifies you of subfolder emails, but I know that if you look at all folders you'll see a gray number all the way to the right indicating how many unread emails are in that subfolder.

Yeah, I tried that. The folder will sync (I have local cache for folder) but I receive no notification of new emails when they arrive in folder. Grrrr!
I'm not sure why Google put subfolder notification in the Gmail app but not in the stock Email app. Very odd.
Any updates on this? Stuck in exactly the same situation here.

Or the owner of the thread found a solution and happily forgot about ever posting here
Ha! No solution but something more on the order of a workaround for my particular situation. I got rid of the subfolder and built rules in Exchange to discard messages of no import to me.
I have not checked Jelly Bean's Email client as yet. Hopefully it implements notification for child folders. If not then someone at Google needs to be flogged relentlessly.
How are you guys setting rules in the native app? Is it something that only works on Exchange? I'd love to find an app that will let me filter my IMAP account like regular apps like Thunderbird/Apple Mail do.

Sorry, I might not have been clear. I built the filter rules on the Microsoft Exchange server, not on my phone.
Who are you using for mail? Google provides a nice array of server based filtering options with Gmail. Also, the stock ICS Gmail client supports child folder (label) notification with the option of setting ringtones per folder. Pure greatness in my opinion.
I'm not sure why the stock Email/Exchange does not implement these features. Very strange...

They want you to use their Gmail ;P
As of the latest JB build the email client functions are exactly the same. I had a DROID Charge before my Nexus, and someone modified that native email client to allow notifications for sub folders. Is there anyway to customize the native client? Anyone want to give this a try?

Ahh gotcha! I do have a gmail account but also use my email from my own band/record label domain. Maybe I should just move all the lists im on over to Gmail..

The source code is available. Someone with the requisite Java skills would need to have the interest and spare time to rewrite some of the code.

It works great. I have a torrent of crap hitting my Gmail box but most of it gets filtered and tagged with a label. (FYI -- Google uses labels instead of actual folders in Gmail. For all intents and purposes they are equivalent)
For lists I actually nest lables. Parent label is 'Lists' and all the email lists I belong to are nested underneath. Filter rules automatically bypass the inbox and drop the email in the appropriate place.
See attached screenshot. In it I'm looking at 'Lists/ODK'.
I too have the same problem and have decided to use TouchDown.
I too am missing the nofitications from subfolders in the email app in Android, so I made a quick look at the source code of this app to see if it would be possible to add this feature myself.
The notification itself happens in the NotificationController.java class: https://android.googlesource.com/pl...com/android/email/NotificationController.java
I did until now manage it to get an event in this class when an email arrives in a subfolder by modifying the class EmailProvider.java: https://android.googlesource.com/pl...com/android/email/provider/EmailProvider.java
I've changed the getBaseNotificationUri method to also return an uri on MESSAGE event. The only problem now is that in NotificationController.java only the combined inbox is checked for new emails. Maybe I can change that so that every message is checked. Maybe I have some time this weekend to try this.
I've managed to build a version of the email app that shows notifications when an email arrives in a subfolder. But when clicking on the notification it just opens the inbox of the account. I have to adjust this part too. I hope I will find some time.
Hello everyone
I hope someone can help me with this.
I have just moved to android from ios and hopefully i'll stay on android because of the fact that it can customize everything on it.
I have a question regarding some apps at the moment.
Does anyone know any good app for hotmail that allows to see all the folders.
At the moment the native app it makes it very hard to browse through my hotmail account where I need a few steps in order to switch folder and in addition it doesn't tell me which folder has emails unless I go in it.
On the iphone I was greeted with all the folder as a root window and each folder had a notification showing how many non read messages were in each folder so browsing was easy.
I've tried hotmail seven as well but the problem with the folder is the same unless I need to do something with the settings,which I don't have any clue about.
If someone has used hotmail and know what I'm talking about then please let me know if you know about any app.
Secondly: I wanted to know if there's an app that allows me to receive notifications about messages, emails etc but without showing the contentn of the message and that gives me also the ability to put passwords on messages so that it can't be accessed without it.
and finally: I'd like to know if you guys are aware of a good contacts manager that allows to keep contacts private so that names and similar stuff is now shown in the incoming and outgoing calls.
Sorry for the many questions but will appriciate if you can help.
Thank you
What I do to find all this information is go on Google and type in (example) best hotmail app for android and read the post.

I've done so,that's why I mentioned hotmail seven ad it was considered one of the best but it doesnt have those features that I mentioned,reason why I'm asking if people used different hotmail clients and wheter they found better features in them

Hi Guys,
I am just looking a good email client for android that also support push mails.
I have a lot of sub folders and rules activated.
On Apple, I was to able choose the folders and select the folders, if I receive a email (inbox / sub folders) I get a message that mail has been arrived.
I want also the same option to use on my Android device the normal client doesn't support push mail only the inbox not the sub folders.
Have someone a idea what is the best tool to use.
Kind regards,

Hi there,
Whatsapp stores ALL media files within ONE huge folder --> I've got about 6000 pictures in it, including much trash pics.
Now I would like to extract/copy all pictures which were send between me and a specific contact (i.e. my girlfriend) to another folder so that I can transfer them on to my computer.
Do you know any way? Is there ANY way of doing it, even it is not only a one-click solution...? Or any third party addon/plugin?
Couldn't find anything when googeling as my keywords gave much too many hits.
Thanks in advance!
Bjoern
Hello and thank you for posting in the Q&A section,
there is no method to export only media of one contact. You can try to press send chat as E-Mail in the chat of you girlfriend and choose the option with media. After that you can send the chat including media to your own E-Mail and download the pictures to your PC. Kind regards, Trafalgar Square
Thanks, I'll try this - but I somehow doubt this could work, as I have about 2500 files sent between me and my girlfriend. Probably too much to be saved as a mail draft in GMail App (
Didnt work, as I thought
