-From Adam Firmware 1.5, software version 0.9-
So just tried the new Adam email client on my Nook running Honeycomb and it worked fine. A lot of the bugs from the first version have been sorted out - it now links to your contacts and seems to download files.
Just place the apk in your system//app directory
I will test out the other programs, but so far:
- the calendar seems to still force close when adding a new appointment.
Finally! Installs fine and runs on decent speed on CM7. This could be the email app I've been waiting for

I would like to upgrade from version 0,9 that comes with Phiremod 6.3
If I just put the apk in app folder, will it work as an upgrade?

Yep, that should work. You might try renaming the original first - just in case!
Anyone know how to get this working with a Yahoo mail account?

I uninstalled .9 and installed 1.5, but when I started the mail app it still says .9, any suggestions?
I uninstalled 0,9, copied newer version in system/app folder, got replace message and then didnt let me install it....

Hey smiley,
Possibly my labling. This email is from Firmware for adam 1.5. They have updated the app, but the version still appears to be 0.9! You should see a massive improvement in its performance.

How do U install it guys?Dont U have system replace error?
Kind like the old icon better, is there a way to get the icon back. Updated from Phiremod 6.3.
It works for me. v0.9
Like dsf3g asked. Any ideas on how to set up Yahoo or Hotmail?
Also, how can you delete an account from the app, because i now get mail from both this and the Gmail app.
Don't want to uninstall the Gmail app but i just might have to.

Under the main Settings for the Nook, in Accounts & Sync, disable Gmail sync. That'll let you use this app instead of Gmail without having to uninstall anything.
Not sure how to remove an account from Mail'd though. Hope that helps.

Yo thanks chris. You'd think one would check that sort of thing.
How well does mail'd handle labels and archiving in gmail, as compared to the gmail app itself?
How about attachments?

Much better IMO. The Gmail app I find looks too cluttered, and because this has a metro layout it works and looks much better.
Awesome! This version seems much cleaner than the old version.
Why does it look the same to me concerning the look?

this won't load up my exchange account.. i really wish it did though.
it consistently makes me fill out outgoing, SMTP info which... there is no smtp with exchange.
woof
Jewnersey,
make the smtp server the same as the incoming server. At least that's what worked for me.

NOOB WARNING: Only flash this if you have nandroid backup experience using custom recovery and have flashed roms before!
This ROM is a repackaging of CyanogenMod-5 for Nexus One (STABLE) [03/23/2010 / 5.0.5.3]. Basically... I've added in the working MOTO "Exchange Calendar" and "Global Address List" APKs for those who need Exchange ActiveSync with calendar and corporate directory (does not sync Outlook tasks).
Do thank Cyanogen and buy him a beer since this ROM is completely his work along with all others credited on his blog!
For info on CyanogenMod ROM please check the above links with lists of specs and features. I'm just a smartphone business-poweruser needing MS Exchange corporate mail plus corporate calendar and thought I'd share my paste-n-bake of CM for those who might care to see if it works for them.
The reason for this is so I might get a chance to pickup a skill or two and I am just starting to learn the basics of using the dsixda kitchen and have just starting reading up on java programming. so, I am sure that many of your questions will surpass my ability to answer them intelligently (if at all). Be gentle
Please support XDA and the individual developers by donating!!!
Changes to CM:
Replaced the cyan colored Nexus boot animation with original full color Nexus boot animation.
Added MotoCAL
Added MotoGAL
Added Logger (noob friendly logcat app)
Added WiFi Tether
Google Apps version combines both CyanogenMod and his separate Google Apps update.zip into a single rom plus the above and these apps and widget:
AccuWeather Widget
Astrid Task/ToDo
Astro File Manager
Quickboot (utility app reboots direct to recovery)
SpeedTest (3G download/upload monitor)

Nothing to do with pushing the apk file. Sounds like you have Exchange 2007 and your administrator does not allow unprovisionable devices. See if you can talk him/her/them into changing that.

sorry to hear that. if both the apks installed and you can actually run the apps with no fcs, then you may want to check with your system admin at work to check your user exchange account settings for mobile activesync. ...but you probably already know that. when setting up your work email did you check both ssl and accept all certs?
good luck searching xda for solution and consider reporting back solution if found.

Exchange Contacts not Syncing
Sorry for the bother. I used this as my first ROM on my new Nexus One mainly because I wanted to get the Exchange Calendar Syncing. I went through all of the steps that I have found elsewhere and successfully installed your modification. The problem that I am having is that even though the phone says it is and has synced the Exchange Contacts nothing appears in the contact list. I have tried all of the options for displaying contacts, that I can find in the phone but nothing seams to help. The strange thing is that I can add a contact in the phone and it will appear in Outlook.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks in Advance
Didn't work for me ! but ... looking into old stuff I found some old HTC Hero .apk for exchange apps .. If this works , ill post them here ...

Something that took me awhile to setup for my boss (I'm the IT admin for a business) is to make sure that you're not using Personal Folders for the location to save your e-mail, contacts, calender events, etc to and switch it to Mailbox - "your name" in the Mail preferences in Control Panel if it isn't already set that way. If it's set to Personal Folders, your info is only residing on the server for a moment and then getting saved to your local computer. If that isn't the solution, next to to check the Event Manager / Exchange Manager on your Exchange server and see if it's even making a connection.

That is all setup correctly and did work on the stock ROM. I used the Logger this ROM included and found the following Error Message:
E/Contacts(###### ######)(352): Uncaught exception in EasSyncServicejava.lang ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException
The ####s are the name I chose for the Exchange sync account.

good luck following chesh420's suggestion below. can you tell us if your exchange calendar is activesync-ing ok? ...and...can you access your exchange global address list using the "corporate directory" app? i hope the rom works ok for you ...that is why i'm asking
btw... spend a few bucks in the market and buy "pure calendar widget" since it is a clean tool to display the combined appointments of exchange calendars, google calendar, and astrid to-do tasks in a variety of widget sizes and skins.

You need to have gapPS installed or you winner have the calendar sync file
From 1.2 Nook Color
So excuse me if this is a lame question but is the gapPS file safe to load on a ManualNooter NC with 1.2.0?
I posted this the other day in the "General" forum,
"I did do a search for this issue and there are other folks having this issue in the Development Forum, but I can't post on that forum. Used ManualNooter 4.4.27 for 1.2.0 (worked great by the way! Thanks). I can not figure out how to get my google calendar to sync. I have tried the "add account" again procedure, didn't work. Won't accept a dup. account (never had that popup before). I have tried deleting my gmail acct in the new NC stock email app. and that didn't help. Went in to Nook Color Tools, to Manage Apps and cleared defaults and data, didn't help. Anyone have any idea? Oh yeah when I go to gmail, accounts, account settings and click settings for gmail, under Data & synchronization, syn calendar is not listed. Thanks!"
I haven't gotten a fix for this problem yet. If anyone can help I'd appreciate it.

No, you must manually copy or push the individual files over to the system /app folder.

I know this sounds crazy but the email app from the Charge works with my Roadrunner email account - the email app from the Fascinate does not. I tried to push it with root explorer on my rooted Fascinate but it force closes when i launch it. Anyone wiling to help? Thanks so much.
my roadrunner works on mine. what problem are you having?
I get connection problems. I am on the roadrunner.com server not rr.com and the incoming and outgoing settings take when setting up but when checking email, it gives a connection problem via a yellow bar that appears.
Settings I use:
u: [email protected]
pop-server.roadrunner.com 110
mobile-smtp.roadrunner.com 25
I'm having this issue with my hotmail account. I had to download a hotmail app.

I've read other posts where its been a known issue with the fascinate's email app and how it interacts with certain pop3 servers. I think they resolved it in the Charge since I tried my email account on co-worker's phone.
Just use another email app
Thanks, but with all due respect, that's not the point...if the gps didn't work, then just buy a garmin? And if the phone camera froze when taking pics then just use a traditional camera?
Try searching for the email.apk from the Galaxy Tab. That works on our phones, and mighty fix your problem.
I use pop-server.cinci.rr.com since I'm in Cincinnati. Double check your server address. It works great on my fascinate on the tw email app.

This make absolutely no sense. I said just get another email app, There are definitely email apps in the Market. Your telling me to go spend money on something else. If your normal email app doesn't work just go get another app, its not hard.
Here you go Even deodexed it for you
I pushed file to system/app thhen changed permissions and removed the old email.apk but when I reboot, I get a looping forceclose of the process com.android.email even before I attempt o launch it. Has anyone else tested this?
I copied the Galaxy Tab email.apk from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=810454
Root Explorer - copy\move existing email.apk to a backup folder and then copy\move new .apk to app folder. Clicked on it, installed, and reconnected to email account.
sadly, corporate email administrator settings for security lock on screen timeout still doesnt work. Otherwise, it works and looks nice.
Update: suddenly stopped delivering new mail and no manual refresh button. If these 2 things can be resolved by a developer this would be a great email app on the Fascinate, though it does have a distinct ipad feel to it. . Pinch zoom works and in landscape you can roll each pane separately.
Second Update: tried flashable version here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=12011499#post12011499
gives manual refresh option, but is not working with Exchange. ( wont download current day mail, only day prior and beyond). sending works fine.
supposedly works with non- Exchange accounts.

Baah! I saw the screen shots in that thread, and if the only difference between a "blacked out" gmail 2.3.5 and a normal gmail 2.3.5 is the inverted color of the background, then what's the fuss about? If you want black backround and grey text, then you already have that in Social Hub. Just access your gmail from Social Hub if you like the background to be black. What's the big deal
The hub is bloatware. It's buggy and less functional than the original app. I much prefer the white background gmail app than hub's email app, even considering the highest power drained by the white theme.
In addition, the original email app has push protocol that i like much, and better label/directory management!

I don't consider the Social Hub to be bloatware.....neither have I experienced any bugs in it. It's a useful tool for seeing all your email, sns & message streams in one place. Although I personally prefer other dedicated professional apps for my social networks, I use the Social Hub for all my various email accounts. It bifurcates the mails according to dates, which the gmail app does not.
Yes, apps like Yahoo finance, Readers Hub, Games Hub are definitely bloatware. To each his own. Cheers!
What I don't like of the email client of the Social hub is that it is the one included by default in android, which is not push type and every email I send with it, is wrongly reported by the client as being sent twice: the first correctly, and the second to a long list of duplicated addressees... In addition every email received is notified both in the hub and in the default email client, but clearing one notification does not automatically clear also the other so every email notification has to be cleared twice.
However I do reckon that's just my personal experience with it, so perhaps others more good than me at configuring it may not find it so bad.
Here's the deal - I want to add my corporate email account to the stock app on my S4 however - my company has stopped approving individual Android phones to the network. They now want me to use the 3rd party app Touchdown, which I don't want to do.
My last phone was a Galaxy Nexus and was able to successfully use the activesync exchange. Is there a way to trick my company in thinking I have a GNex (approved phone) so I can use the native app? Changing the phone name in the build.prop file didn't seem to work.
I'd prefer to use the S4 native app but if I can pull the stock app from the GNex, that works too.
Thanks for your help!

I can't really answer your question, but have one of my own to you. What's wrong with Touchdown? I actually prefer it since I only have to enter my pin when I launch the app. When I configured the stock app for Exchange I had to enter it every time I woke my phone which drove me crazy. I acknowledge it's a personal preference thing.

Stock looks so much nicer. Looks like an app actually created for JB. Touchdown looks like a blackberry app from 2003. I like the way stock integrates with my calendar.
Also, I used the modified version of the stock app so I didn't have to enter a PIN

While I agree that visually Touchdown is not as nice as the stock app, it will sync the phone's native calendar with exchange.

Do you know how? My understand is that while it may sync with contacts, it can't sync with the stock calendar.

When you setup the account in Touchdown you just select the Calendar to sync.
I have used it on many different ROMs and since my Galaxy Nexus. I have noticed that sometimes it can take a while for the events to appear in the calendar. (A couple hours at times at first.)
I think you are SOL. The Exchange server you will connect to can (and is probably configured) to check a unique hash generated from your current phone that is registered at the first sync that was done on your GNex. There are hacks out there, but I have no idea how well they work.

I'm a little confused here. So you can use your phone but only if you use Touchdown. Does touchdown connects to your network some special way? What error do you get when you try to use your S4 mail app?

When you setup the account in Touchdown you just select the Calendar to sync.
I have used it on many different ROMs and since my Galaxy Nexus. I have noticed that sometimes it can take a while for the events to appear in the calendar. (A couple hours at times at first.)

I've been using Touchdown for a few years now and I really like it but I've never found a way to have the Touchdown calendar copied/synched/etc to the phone's built-in calendar. I know this option exists for the contacts but I just checked all of the settings in TD again and an option to do so with the calendar does not appear to exist. Please tell me how you accomplish this?

When you initially set up the account it gives you the tick boxes for email, contacts, and calendar. I select email and calendar but not contacts and it has always synced my calendar.

Correct. I was told by my internal IT that they do not authenticate individual models of Android phones anymore for activesync (because there is so many different versions. ugh.). So they tell you that if your device isn't already on the list, you need to use Touchdown. I was able to use the stock app on the Gnex, but can't on my S4. The error message simply says "Setup could not finish: Authentication failed".
I was hoping there would be some way to manipulate the app so my phone would appear as a GNex to the network.
Now that the S4 had been out for a little bit I will give this a bump and hope someone had a solution Please help . Thanks!

Not sure if this will help you but for a while I had flipped to another client see this url http://forums.androidcentral.com/verizon-galaxy-note-2/231093-i-miss-my-email-widget.html
And see the post from 12-18-2012, 11:55 AM alvarez13.
One of the many times I restored I did have a problem with FC's and created a step 6...
6. If this doesn't work just remove those two apps from the app folder and install the 2 apks from the SD Card. Then run TIBU and convert email to a system app, if it errors reboot the device.
If all else fails you just remove those two apks, and rename the original files back and reboot. Of course as always....
Please make a backUp when trying any mod, I am not responsible if your phone breaks. Yada Yada :good:
So update: I downloaded CM and can use the stock email app. For some reason on CM - my S4 appears as a GNex to my company's servers. Is there anyways to make that change so I can enjoy stock email use on TouchWiz?
Somebody must know how to make this change. Please help!

I also did not find a way to sync calendar. Should I un-install Touch Down and re-install it to get to the option?
Thanks

I would suggest Hyperdrive as an option and choose aosp email client vs tw. Hope that helps. Idk if it will but it seems it would since it's based off of cm's email client.
If I helped don't forget to hit that thanks button.
