Sorry to ask such a simple ?? but I have googled extensively and looked on this site and cannot find anything. I cannot for the life of me figure out how to CHECK ALL emails in my email package for a bulk deletion ? i THINK lg MAY HAVE OVERLOOKED THIS TINY BUT VITAL procedure ? I can bulk select contacts if i want to do something in my address book but not in emails ? Am i missing something ? What a silly oversight if they have missed it
I suppose you mean Gmail by your "email package". Have you tried pressing the Menu hard key and looking for a Multi-select option (I don't use the Gmail app, so I'm not sure how it's worded)?
are you using the GMAIL app, or another email app? I use the gmail app from the market and all i have to do is tap the checkbox beside each email, and then select delete. all gone.

Yes that is exactly right. I can do that no worries.
HOWEVER !
What happens if you want to to delete dozens and dozens of emails (as in my case with business communications etc ) with one single click rather than going through and selecting each individual one ? How in god's name do you CHECK ALL.
I have the CHECK all option in contacts !!
Try other email clients like k9. Or wait for ice cream sandwich.

I've looked and could not find an answer, so I thought I'd ask. I wonder if there is a way to do a 'delete all' in the standard email app. I know that each email can be selected one by one then deleted, but I'd like to be able to delete all the emails in an account easily and quickly. Anyone know how to do this?
Nope, not in the standard gmail app.

well i mean in gmail there should be check boxes you can press so you don't have to individually press each email and delete them but thats the only way
While most everything works from the rooting process equal to the phone I was not able to import all my google contacts only a handful will import into the Nook (NC). After many tries I found a work-a-round.
Save the contacts in google to (outlook type) CVS file and place it on the external sdcard. Download Navdress Book (the only one of many I tried) and import the contacts.
I still have a very small issue with my screen having everything bump up to the edges, while everything is there just no space around the sides. I am sure I will find some screen font/resolution way to make everything look better. Even if not this is so way cool to use over my Vibrant, as much as I enjoy the screen sharpness the NC is faster (hard to believe)...and larger screen....so I find I read and surf more on it then my phone now. Also being able to connect the NC to the phone I do not need to worry about wifi.
As I was going to get the SamsungTab, yet with their POOR support and software updates I was holding off until next year to see if otherS had a better tab, now I do not need to!
The phone is a phone, searching and maps tool, whereas the NC is a web-surf, email, reader, games, etc. Guess as I write this I would be open to 2/3rd the NC size (about 5" to 6 " thin) tab that had everything the NC and Vibrant has in one package. A "BEST of Both Worlds" kind of wish. Small and light enough to do it all...Hey it is a new year folks...
does this allow you to select contacts within google voice or a mail program? the reason i ask is it seems like a standalone contacts program.
i exported everything to a vcard file and used a program called 'import contacts' to get everyone on my phone (edit - scratch that: my nook). they don't all show up in my contacts app but they can be selected in google voice, k9, etc now. woohoo

Sadly no just have them available to lookup. Not sure what you are referring to about the phone. I have no problem with the Vibrant and Google, just the NC does not bring in nor allow contacts to be selected in gmail, that I have found. Read and reply works just not contacts lookup...
However, I can goto the WEB interface and reach gmail/contatcs and send that way. Can not use the gmail app on the NC unless I type in the full email address, kind of a drag unless replying is all I was pointing out.

that's what i meant. i meant nook, not phone this will make it to where you can actually select contacts.
Edit: just added this to the wiki: Making contacts work
So, what do you do once you have all your contacts on the Nook? Can't call them ... can't launch an email to them ... it's just a glorified address book at that point isn't it?

Sweet - worked like a charm.
... By the way, to get a vcard of your contacts, go to gmail on web, click on contacts on the left side, more actions, export, and choose vcard.

After importing the contacts into Navdress, I found I was able to choose a contact, select the individual contact icon and the email address would automatically load into email program of my choice (K9 for me). Another option. Going the vcard route would not work for some reason.
Thanks here.david and jadambpharm for figuring this out. Have either one of you explored sending emails to groups? I have tried a number of group contact apps without any success. Thanks again.
Thanx for the post here.david
I also found this method on nookdevs and it worked really well,

Yes that is correct. I mainly use my nook for email and have a number of different distribution groups that I send a mass email to. Thanks (sent from Texas).

Cool! Does this stay in sync with your Google Contacts, or is it a manual process to sync them?

I have just tested with my nook and two mail apps, gmail and maildroid(i find it more convinient) and it works fine.
the testing procedure was following:
1. Call up phonebook app, find your contact, press on it and if contact has e-mail press email button and select your app to compose message.
2. Call up gmail app, begin typing contact name or email and drop down list appears matching to the keyword and select your contact.
3. Call up maildroid and do same steps at p.2.
All works fine
Note: p.2 and 3 are possible without any contacts manager app, it is available just after importing contacts from soocial account.
I have no groups of contacts thats why i cant test with groups, sorry...

I dont know, i have not try this jet. Need to check soocial for this possibility.
Does anybody have any idea on how to make GMail the default contact save location? I had 3 options - PC Sync, SIM & Gmail, the default contact save location being PC sync.
Using Titanium Backup, I froze the "PC Sync 1.0.8" service. This removed PC Sync from the above 3 options. But I am Still left with the rest of the 2 options, the new default contact save location being SIM.
Tried freezing the "com.lge.simcontacts 1.0" service. But this doen't remove the SIM option from the contact save locations. It just disables adding new contacts to sim BUT THE OPTION STILL APPEARS AND REMAINS AS THE DEFAULT ONE.
Please help.
Why doesn't anybody answer? Is it because no one knows the answer or because I am the only ignorant person on board here?
I would also like to know how to do this!
Seems like we are the only two guys bothered by this problem.
I've had this trouble as well and not found any answer. You just need to make sure you select your Google account when adding new contacts.
no idea try to search the forum
Still waiting for the answer.

Being arrogant like that will NOT get you an answer, it will convince people to NOT give you answer because you are pissing them.
Sorry, my friend, but that is not arrogance but my frustration coming out.
You should be nicer... i dont know the answer but when i create a contact i choose pcsync and it goes to my google accaunt as well...

Do you mean to say that when you chose pc sync as the default contact save location, your new contacts are saved in your google account and on your phone simultaneously?

It should be! After i imported by hand my contacts (on .CSV format) to my gmail account they went to a place in google contacts called "My Contacts" -Note that at the time i was uploading the contacts list in CSV format i said to move it to the said "My Contacts" place!
Then i turned my phone's wifi on and it synched my Gmail contacts onto the phone! after that on "Display" i put PCSynch off , SIM Contacts off and on Gmail i put only show "My Contacts"!
Since my phone is showing my Gmail contacts, whenever i create a new contact (usually on PCSync i never bothered to change it :x) when i turn my gmail on or the android starts synching with google the contact apears on my google's "My contacts" list and therefore it pops back to the android contacts list!
Or so it worked for me! Some ppl say they didn't have that much trouble but hey... i had all my contacts on PCSynch and couldn't synch them to google before and now after all the hassle of importing them by hand... now i can!
Does not work for me. if I add a contact to pc sync, it still doesn't appear on the google contacts list. Have you installed any other application which helps you sync pc sync contacts with google?
Has anybody found out a way to do this yet?
The solution is still evading us. I hope that some developer sees this and provide a solution.
Your question is a a little confusing but I think this is what your after:
To set contact default to Google go into you contact list then press menu and choose view next uncheck the box that says "phone" and now your default is Google
So I've had this phone less than 24 hours and I want to get rid of it.
I have all my contacts in gmail and organized. Work, Businesses, Personal, etc.
The only way I can see my all gmail contacts is if I go under "All contacts". (But thats cluttered with every auto added email address for the past years)..
And select show only contacts with phone numbers. All I get is my own contact. WTF!
Now that I'm searching for it, tons of people are having this issue with no real solution..
yes, i hate this

If this is your only issue with the Atrix, I am sure there will be a solution somewhere for it, and you will find that it is an amazing piece of hardware, and you will reap the benefits.
Where have you looked for solutions so far?
I've tried just about every contact manager on the market with no luck..
I'd settle for seeing all my contacts with out grouping for now but can't even figure that out.
Theres a few other unrelated things bugging me.. I hate the sms iphone like bubbles, can't see how to disable them asides from a 3rd party app.
usb charging doesn't seem to work.
And I already had top do a battery pull to get the phone to wake once.
I miss CM lol

Below is a link to the contacts manager I use. 'Go Launcher EX Contacts' it works great for me, you can create as many categories as you want and name them whatever you what. Give it a try see what you think.
com.jbapps.contact.apk
Yea, I would also suggest trying out the GO Contacts app.
The only thing I don't like so far is that the GO wallpaper team steals code from freeware developers and tries to make money off of it :\
log into Gmail. go to your contacts. Delete all the entries under "other contacts" as that is where it stores all the email addresses you've sent email to over the past years, that aren't an actual contact that you've entered yourself.
Now go to Gmail settings. General Tab. In the option "Create contacts for auto-complete:", select the "I'll add contacts myself" radio button. That should solve your problem. or atleast some of them

Open your contacts app. Not the dialer + contacts tab. The actual contacts app. Press the options soft key button, select display group, and then All contacts.

I actually tried that this morning, didn't change anything when displaying only contacts with phone number.. I'm still the only contact it shows.
But alas I figured out what this stupid thing was doing!
It only shows google contacts that are in the "My Contacts" group. All of my contacts only belong to one group (Work, Personal, Etc). Putting them all in my contacts fixes the default contacts app.
But I think I'm going to stick with GoContacts for now..
Thanks guys!
Hi,
I am searching for a good mail app.
I am receiving many emails from different accounts (approx 6 different accounts) and I would like to have a way to read the emails from the notification panel and mark them as "read" or "delete".
And, in the mail app, the best will be with a consolidated view for unread messages.
I don't want an application that "proxifies" our data (man in the middle; and they have the password of our mailbox).
Which mail app do you use ?
Thank you

Cloudmagic is quite expensive if I have more than 3 mail accounts; moreover my emails wil be stored on their server -/)
Mail Wise seems nice but not available in Play store for my country. I tried to use MarketEnabler to specify a [US] T Mobile value but stil doesnt work.
If you have any other idea or good app, let met know.

K-9 is probably one of the most popular mail apps and it has options for mark read and delete in the notification panel.

I agree, although there are problems with some devices using it, as I experienced. If you also have problems try [email protected] made by the same devs I believe.

Me too agree! Also K9 is open source. You can downloaded from F-Droid market and with APG app you can firm o encrypt your e-mail message.
Also the default mail, which come with android gapp, can mark as read from the notification bar. It depends on your rom version.
