We are running Lotus Notes at work (I will accept all the pity that anyone cares to give me). We have version 8.x and have Lotus Traveler servers up and running. The Lotus Traveler software on android leaves a few things to be desired.
Traveler server can speak standard ActiveSync. The problem is that the Gingerbread and Froyo versions of the Exchange setup on android broke the ability to put in a custom URL for the "exchange/traveler" server.
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=14486
Is anyone aware of any way around this? I would like to remove the traveler software and just use the built in email app with my lotus email. There are some apps that you can run on the android that will use ActiveSync to work with a traveler server but I really wanted to use the built in email app if possible.
Maybe someone who developed a custom Email.apk that allowed for a manual server URL?
Thank you.
Working EMail.apk
Hi,
I had the same problem. I patched the current EMail.apk from Gingerbread, now it works for all my Traveller Accounts. This version is the Galaxy Tab version, but should also work on smaller devices.
Have fun,
Bender.

Thank you. How does one install this? Do I need to remove the old Email.apk or can I install this one over the top? (phone is rooted but does not have custom rom or kernel)
Problem with BodyPreference
Hi,
I have one more problem with the current app.
I get only Mime Encoded EMails and they are not displayed correctly.
I have to first work this out, then you can use the app.
When you have a roote phone, all you have to do is go to /system/app
delete Email.apk and Email.odex (if you have one), then copy the new Email.apk to this plays. Open Email.apk, the app is installed and then reboot your device.
Bender.
Awesome. Thank you for working on this.
Any luck making this work?
I have a Lotus Notes Traveler account and i'm trying to make use of the built-in email in ICS. All my calendar entries and mail headings are syncing just fine but there's no visible body to be read in any email.
Anyone with a solution?
Nobody?

Hi,
I am on stock ICS Galaxy Note and want to use my lotus notes using native email client but I am not able to sync because my company uses port number in server name like :
mail.mydomain.com:15001/servlet/traveler
if i put :15001 the mail client Next button gets disabled any fix for this?
Same here.... This custom port is killing me... You could try setting a port forwarding from another computer, setting ot as you server.
Not sure it will work, but it might.
Also if anyone here has the latest LotusTraveler.apk (v. 8.5.3.2) could you please post?

Ok - yes I use hotmail....
I see andriod 2.1 is not yet supported but 2.2 seems to work.
I would really like to use it on my Wildfire - calendar and contacts sync is very important for me.
So how can we make it work?
I've looked around and seen a froyo client won't work nor does the Touchdown or K9 apps (I tried K9).
But the galaxy s email client is reported working - I've found the apk but am not sure how to install it (usual install fails on my rooted phone).
Anyone any ideas?
Thanks
Mark
Froyo works without HTML Emails.
Touchdown works fine for me.
I don't know about the Galaxy email client.
OK...
So I've got 2.1, got it rooted and until I have the time to get rid of that horrible blue I thought I'd give Timescape another go... First up, big fail on the call log, but maybe they'll sort that with the next update later this year...
Then I had a look at using the standard e-mail so I would have my mail in Timescape. I'd been using the gmail app and moxier (for my exchange account at work). After playing around I've got two questions:
1. I had read that the android e-mail app supports exchange in 2.1 but it won't accept the details from my work server. Has anyone got an exchange account to work with the standard mail app? Or has SE decided we don't need this because we've got Moxier?
2. This may be pretty simple, but I just want to move an e-mail from my inbox to a folder.... is this not possible, or am I an idiot? (these aren't necessarily mutually exclusive )
EDIT: I read up again on this today - the active sync support is in 2.1, but it is up to the manufacturer to implement it due to licensing costs (google doesn't want to be giving microsoft money now, does it ) Which means we're stuck with moxier. All I really wanted was one calendar with everything in it (exchange and google) but the only way I can see of doing that is with a desktop sync, and we don't have desktop access to our exchange server as it is hosted (terminal server or active sync only...)

Hi,
I'm also afraid of using Moxier for Exchange sync and it's normally a "no go" for me.
But I don't have the update in Germany right now so I'll wait....and sell it after updating
I don't know why they (have to) use Moxier, but the integration has not taken place.
No merge of Moxier and X10 calendar! No Moxier widget that can be used instead.
But I think that there are not much people out there who miss the "integrated" Excange sync.
I've played with two other devices and I intend to change.
You can try K9 or ShangMail. Pretty cool apps for push email.

Oh well, thanks anyway guys. I guess I'll just have to keep things as they were...
One thing I would like Android app to improve is to utilize the bigger screen more effectively like iPad.
I enjoy a lot on using email app on iPad because it supports two-pane interface, where list of mail on the left pane and the content of the selected mail is on the wider right-pane.
I saw Galaxy Tab has something similar for its email app, and it is being discussed about the possibility of porting the apk to work on other rooted droid phone/tablet.

Will anyone try it on Archos 70 or 101?
I'm a newbie on rooting my Archos; so I'm not sure I can try it myself even I'm eager to.
Thanks
i haven't gotta it to work.. i can install it but it forces closes on opening....
dont think its supposed to be "installed" according to that thread.. just pop it in the system/app folder.
does the client have gmail support? i get the feeling its just a pop3/imap client which isnt ideal for me. still hopefully the gmail app for tablets will be released for it soon after honeycomb is out
i delete the stock email.apk and put the new email.apk in the system/app folder...
1) i install it but it force closes...
2) i put it in the folder and reboot tablet and it disappears on reboot
3) i install it with stock email still installed and get failed install
so i dont know wat im doing wrong.. i have the sde installed with rooted kernel and i cant uninstall any stock apps.. they delete but return on reboot..
Thanks for trying.
When I got Archos 70 (Froyo 2.2.1), I can't use the stock email app to setup my Yahoo mail, no matter what I did, it always said wrong login/password (either automatic or manual setup won't work); but don't have any problem with my two gmail accounts setup.
So I downloaded and installed K-9 email app from Market and it works smoothly as my only mail app till now.
Just wonder why I can install and use another email app (K-9) on my unrooted Archos, but can't do the same for Galaxy Tab email app?
It's probably looking for something in the framework files on the G-Tab, which the Archos doesn't have. Kind of like trying to run the Sense clock on a non-sense rom, it just won't work (won't work even on a Sense rom if you're not using HTC's rosie).
Basically there's something on the g-tab that's missing on the Archos..
Because the Galaxy Tab email program uses extensions ( by samsung ) put into the system.
If someone finds out what/where/how we will be able to use that app.
I've got it working but I don't have enough posts on XDA to post a link. If you go to archosfans forums and look at the gen 8 hacking forum you'll see links to the files used to get the GTAB email app working on my 70. You must use the SDE root method to install it.
Did you get pop3 working?
It's working fine for gmail, but my nprmal pop3 accounts are not loading.
Thanks. I got Yahoo and Gmail working.
In order to make it work, I have to clear cache in Manage Application first.
When composing a new mail, I can't attach document. It always fC.
My hotmail account did not download messages but even stock android email app has issues with hotmail.
It does seem to be having some issues with attachments. I think it is due to the archos mount structure.
Having been using Galaxy Tab email.apk on my Archos 70 for two days and I like it very much (except not being able to attached file for new mail, downloading attached file is ok).
Just notice that sometimes read mails are still in bold characters instead of normal ones.
Sometimes it become normal characters after being read; but next time when I launch the email app, it becomes bold again.
Anyone has the same problem?
how use this
impossible to rename or move the email.apk
and copy the 3 apks on rep system/app/
i use the SDE and the A101 is rooted
Do you use the SDE + SD Card?
Otherwise you still use the squashfs, that is readonly.
So how are you guys removing the stock email apk?

If you root your device and boot from sdcard with Uruk hack, then you can simply copy those three Galaxy Tab apk into /system/app by either Astro or Rootexplorer; and reboot again from sdcard.
Hi there,
After having posted earlier about the sync problems here, I would like to find out what is causing the problem.
I have done a lot of flashing lately and am pretty sure it must be either the Calendar/Agenda or the Sync program in Android 2.3.5 that's causing the problems (not sync-ing edited items made on the Exchange/Outlook client side).
Other clients, when installed on the phone, like TouchDown for Exchange, synchronizing everything fine.
My first question would be:
Has the Activesync program on the phone been updated from Android 2.3.4 to 2.3.5?
For, if not, it must be the Calendar/Agenda app that needs to be at the origin of the problems.
Can anyone confirm this?
The other question would be:
Depending on the answer on the first question, could either the sync or the Calendar/Agenda from 2.3.4 be ported to 2.3.5?
I'll gladly be willing to test. I have tried myself to replace the apps, but I don't seem to be able to find the appropriate files.
Anyone any help?
Regards,
Solved by updating to CM7 Android 2.3.7
Hi there,
Problem has been solved for me by updating to VictoryMod 2.1 (based on CM7) which is running Android 2.3.7.
Regards,
I have the same problem with google calendar sync. I have had it since I changed to 2.3.5 JVT and it's still here after changing to 2.3.5 JVU on Galaxy S. Is there a way to fix this without changing the entire rom?
I have also the same problem with GSII but I can't upload another rom, it's a company phone.
Is there anyway to have it working on GSII?
Thx, David
Exchange sync has always been iffy for me. I eliminated the problem using Google Calendar on the phone and using G-Syncit with Outlook to keep my desktop sync'd with Google. It isn't as elegant as using Exchange exclusively, but it has been flawless.
I guess it will work until I can get over the fear of migrating the Exchange Server to Google Mail.
At work we use Lotus Notes. Coming from iPhone to Nexus 4, I am not interested in having one app for personal mail, and the bloated **** of Lotus Traveler app for work mail *which everyone here says kills the battery*.
So I managed to use the same manual exchange settings that I push to our iPads to make the native email app work. The problem now is that after I nand-restored the lotus side of email doens't work and if I remove and readd the exchange account, I don't get prompted to re-install the device administrator profile.
I've been trying to find on the server how/where that push comes from with no luck, I've tried searching the googles for how to.
Anyone know what files to remove from teh device to get this to work again?
Turned out something with cyanogen mod ROM from that day. Problem removing and reinstalling mail works now.
