[Q] Email apps and attachments... Bug ? - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everybody,
I've a little problem with the email apps :
when I receive an email with some PDF or doc or whatever file as attachment, I'm unable to download it or to open it using the email application... I've to forward it to my gmail email address to be able to use the Gmail apps to see the attachment...
I'm certainly making something false, but what ??
I don't only see any buttons or any option concerning the attachment !

if you click on it u cannot open pdf file which is a pain. if u save it u can open it. we should be able to view it without saving it.
little things like this should have been sorted out!
I use maildroid which lets me view pdf without saving it.

I might miss represented my question..
I dont have stock rom.. I got mighty rom..
so when I do click manu all I have is send to your space and mms
I did that config thing with stock rom .. but I was wondering if theres way to add it back in menu or chang in registry where it'll be sending
thanks
ok somone helped me on other forum ...
I'm not taking credit for it.. !!!!!!!!!
If you don't want to have the sprint picture mail. The mighty rom has a social network to upload pictures to facebook and videos to youtube. First go to settings and connections to set up your information on the account manager. Next when you use the album click on the bottom right to pull up the menu and click upload to facebook.
For myspace, you can setup an email address to send pictures to. I don't know if you use sMMS or what but just setup a contact for myspace with the email you picked and send an email with the picture to myspace.
just repost his reply just incase someone as dumb as I'm!

[APP][18AUG09]GPS Location: Send your location via sms or email as Google Maps Link

What's the application about:
This application finds your location via GPS (provided you have an internal or external GPS).
Then you have the option to:
1. Send an SMS
2. Send an Email
3. Create a Note
4. Send to Clipboard
your location as just plain coordinates (40.089821,22.567634) (can be copied to maps.google.com search field)
or better as a Google Maps Link (http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&t=m&q=40.089821,22.567634)
or (New) as a Google Maps Mobile Link (http://www.google.com/gmm/x?action=BUSI&q=LAT,LONG).
5. (New) Scheduled SMS, Email sending or Http request on defined time interval.
The persons who receive your SMS or Email can click on the google maps link and they will directly see your location on google maps.
You can use Pocket Outlook or Flexmail as your email sending app. You can choose the account that will be used and you can a default recipient.
When sending the email you will be prompted to add a recipient. The default recipient you have set up will be proposed. You can change it or browse through your contacts to choose another email.
You can keep a note with your current location and add your own notes. Date and time automatically added in the note.
You can copy the location to the clipboard and paste it anywhere you want or you can just phone someone and tell him your location.
To setup a http request, for example http://maps.google.com/maps?q=40.000000,24.000000
then you would write in the settings http://maps.google.com/maps?q=%lat%,%long%
So if you're still on vacation why not send your location to your friends!!!
Version 1.2 beta 3 What's new (14/12/2009)
1. Fixed the scheduled http function
2. SMS 140 chars. There is a choice in the settings to send a cut SMS version that is around 137 to 140 chars.
Version 1.2 beta 1 What's new (23/11/2009)
1. Scheduled SMS, Email sending or Http request on defined time interval. Each of them can be enabled separately and have its own time interval.
2. Google Maps Mobile Link. You can choose to send a Google Maps Mobile Link by SMS. This links open only from a mobile device and cannot be opened from a desktop pc. So you should be careful when sending this type of link. If you are not sure if the other party can open this link than better send a Google Maps desktop link. (http://www.google.com/gmm/x?action=BUSI&q=LAT,LONG)
3. Send without editing. For both SMS and Email you have the option to send them without first editing them. The SMS program and email program will not open but they will be sent in the background.
4. Send without poping up Contact Screen. For both SMS and Email you have the option to send them without the Choose Contact screen opening. You have to set a predefined Recipient in the Settings.
5. Many internal changed to allow the scheduled SMS, Email and Http function be implemented.
Version 1.1a What's new (11/09/2009)
When you use "Microsoft Intermediate GPS Driver" and you press disconnect the app now closes the GPS. In v1.1 you should exit the program to close GPS.
Version 1.1 What's new (08/09/2009)
1. GPS Data. The app now uses "Microsoft Intermediate GPS Driver" to get the gps data. It's the default option. Works perfect, not laggy anymore. Should solve the problems some of you had connecting to GPS. For older devices (wm 2003) which don't support the driver, you can use the old method with the serial port. Choose it from the options.
2. SMS. Added Date and Time in the message when sending SMS
3. Email with Pocket Outlook. You can now edit the email before sending it. The option to send it without editing it, remains but you have to choose it in the options.
Things I have in mind to do next
1. Some graphics improvements for vga devices. (it's developed on my qvga)
2. Look if can get the pic from google maps and send it as MMS or Mail Attachment
Known Issues:
v1.0
When moving fast (in a car) then your location shown is about 5 seconds back. So when you stop somewhere it keeps refreshing till it reaches your current position. It takes about 5 secs (solved on v1.1).
Installation:
Just install the cab on the device or storage card. When upgrading then you have to install the app on the same location to keep the settings OR copy the settings.txt file to your new location.
Donation:
Anybody finds this app useful and would like to donate, you can do it through this paypal account:
reserved for future use (updates, etc.)
excellent man, thank you, i was waiting for an application like this for a long time....
Great App !
Now, if you do a better graphics, it will become a beautiful app
Awesome app! Cheers.
How about another option where it sends it as an MMS. You could make it open google maps on the phone, take a screen shot of the location then send the image via mms.
That would be sweeeet.
great app. +1 to the mms idea
This sounds Great. Would it be possible to use this as a phone finding tool?
Coool Application.Iphone like
Good and Great
A great we have this in our mobile it very improtant --so it sound good application --thank you
Can you make it send a .kml file as an email attachment? Then, as long as the recipient has google maps, opening the attachment will launch google maps with the location marked.
This works great on my T-Mobile USA Touch Pro 2, stock ROM, a very useful application. Thank you highway!
does what you say..
Tested on my BLACKSTONE (hd ,stock rom ) ,working very smooth..yeah..
does what you say (sms, etc..)
Bit unsure ,when i clicked on "connect " (to gps ) if it was in fact trying to ( would it not be good to have some form of indicator ,that it is ? )..,but hey very impressed..
thank you
Nice app and feature at pocketnow.com! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=549517
Very nice! Thank you!
Wraios file mou
Works OK on my Sprint Touch Pro but ...
When you send an email, it puts the completed email in the outbox where it is sent automatically giving you no chance to edit the email. Other apps that send email open the email program with the mail composed allowing you to edit the outgoing email. Apparently the author has his email configured to not send email automatically.
Hi,
it is possible send position as Google Maps (PPC Version) favorite?
Open the coordinates without browser, but directly with Google Maps.

BTW, works great on my French Touch Pro 2, stock ROM.
Highway - Good job ! it is a very useful application.
One small issue :
2nd settings page doesn't allow to choose Pocket Outlook main email account - the one sync'ed with ActiveSync / OTA.
It shows POP & IMAP email accounts but not the activesync one (I want to use to send the email with your app).
Thanks.

[Q] Need help for email setup

When I try to re-send an email with attachment, there is a lot of delay because the attachment file had to be downloaded first, then uploaded again to re-send the email... It's eating my data plan and causing a big and unnecessary delay.
Is there any option that email app acts as the desktop software and it re-send an attachment file directly without download nothing?...
Thank for the answer....
Any solution...
Any idea...

[Q] Saving Pictures - Attachments

Just received a picture in my email that I would like to save. I download the picture and can view it, but then there's no way to access it or save it to my device. Not even a method for copying. Has anybody figured out a way to save or copy an email attachment?

I'll just go ahead and reply to my own thread. You have to go to your gallery, then switch the view to "albums", then all downloads. You'll find them in there.
Derp.
There's also a Downloads shortcut/app in the tools folder in the app drawer. Downloaded Astro file manager before I finally found that, but probably would have anyway.
