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...
i have a problem connecting my tab to the company server, i can't use the e-mail through the exchange, i put the same parameters like my HTC mobile but nothing work, it always said the server need to change my security setting and nothing happened after that.... any help
as an exchange admin, i know there could be a ton to this. they could limit it to client certs, could be limits on your number of devices activated,or just wrong settings or ssl certs. its a loaded question unfortunately.
it was from the application equipped with the tab
the problem solved by installing the Touchdown HD for Tab... it is working fine now and I can get my mails, contacts and calender... It is so obvious, the problem coming from the exchange application coming with the Tab and i hope Samsung can come over this problem soon...
Free app on amazon appstore today is an email client (enhanced email) that allows exchange... just a few hours left, though...
Anyone noticed that the Note features SMS Sync with Exchange 2010? Haven't used a Samsung Android phone before so wasn't sure if this was just a standard Samsung thing or specific to the Note but it's overall really nice. I thought this was something only available if you used Windows Mobile 6.5, but it's working great on my Note.
Anyways, just noticed it and thought it was kind of cool. Wasn't sure if anyone else had seen it as well. Here's the Guide if you're interested in learning more about it - http://help.outlook.com/en-us/beta/910552b1-c99c-4046-8bbc-9d2e8dbcbfda.aspx
Yep, this is the first Android handset I've had that does it. Nice to see Android starting to make inroads into the more advanced features of Exchange. The Note also syncs tasks, too, which is also a first for me (for Android - of course WM6.5 had these features years ago IIRC). Now if the Note could sync notes, it would be nirvana (and a pun). And if S-memo were somehow integrated with exchange notes so that your s-memos were synced with Exchange and viewable in Outlook and OWA...there are serious places Google could take this if they felt like it.

My god, the thought of this just makes me want to hurry up and deploy 2010. Screw public folders!
(we are still in test on SP 2010)
HTC started working in syncing Exchange tasks in Sense 3.0 or 3.5 as well. I can never remember which version is which.
SGS2 already syncs tasks. But I have no Exchange 2010 to test with. So not sure if SMS is supported on SGS2.
on the epic touch 4g on sprint which is there sgs2 i never had sms sync.
I've had the feature since I put the vanilla Samsung 2.3 ROM on my original AT&T GTab. I always turn it off. It was cool to see an SMS in Outlook but the sender was listed as the phone number and I couldn't reply to the SMS from Outlook. If you can reply to the SMS with Outlook with your server, then the feature is more useful.
you need exchange 2010 to do that. 2007 will let you recieve them.
Hi, I'm new here. I'm using a HTC HD2 with WM6.5 (and Office 365) and have no experience with Android. SMS sync is the main reason why I'm still on WM6.5. But the phone has been giving me problems and I've been seriously looking at alternatives. Was looking at the HTC One X plus Touchdown (exchange Activesync client app) but learnt that TD still has bugs for SMS sync.
Was very excited when I saw this thread. So I gather the Galaxy Note has it's own Samsung stock EAS client which allows SMS sync? Does it work well i.e. all texts sent and received on your phone syncs up to OWA and Outlook and vice versa? What about the Galaxy S II?
Would really appreciate your sharing your experience with this. Thanks.

Have you tried cruising the android market? I doubt that samsung is the first to have actually done this.
just a quick search of the market found this.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nitrodesk.touchdownpro&feature=search_result
not sure if it would work for you, but it's a place to start. With that being said you could essentially find ANY android phone you want, but the note is still the best
touchdown will do it but one of the issues is if the carrier supports the feature. at&t just happens to support this. the sgs2 international had this functionality as well. i found this out from another person in the company i work for.
Hey guys, thanks for the reply. Yes from what I've read, Touchdown seems to be the best option out there - far ahead the competition. Plus not only do they sync the usual stuff (email, contacts, calendar, tasks), they apparently also sync notes and SMS. A godsend for me...just like WM6.1/5! I dug further and even joined the forums in Touchdown but then found out there were still bugs with SMS sync and others. So I held back. And I found this thread. I've been scouring the net just to figure out what people's experience are with each but nothing is clear. As it stands, it just appears I have 2 options:
1) Get Touchdown (full featured EAS) and hope they fix the bugs, get a newer ICS phone
or
2) Get a SGS2 or SG Note (assuming the SMS sync works well), forego the notes sync.
Or maybe wait for SGS3 and hope the SMS sync feature is carried over?
sms sync works with stock email client
anyone able to use this to SEND sms? outlook 2010 supports the feature, and the message gets as far as the outbox on the note, but for some reason, goes to the email outbox, and not the sms box.
Also - if you have any alerts configured SMS sync screws that up. I had a rule that would send me a TXT message whenever my SQL server sent an email with high importance (aka a failed job). Exchange wont do that, becasue SMS sync is on.

You can still have public folders in 2010 and theyre easy to migrate. The SMS sync is delayed (I dont use it, I use google voice) but fine.
Yeah you CAN have Public Folders, but since we just invested in a large SP2010 farm I don't WANT public folders.

I've got to ask... how is it working great? I bought a note, set up SMS Sync (on both the stock GB and the stock ICS), and neither was usable. Sure, I could send SMS from outlook fine, but:
Sent SMS did not get displayed on the phone in the email client, or the SMS client
Received SMS displayed in the email client but do not show who they are from
Received SMS in the email client can not be replied to
SMS sent via the SMS client on the phone do not display in the email client on the phone, and do not get synced to Exchange
I could go on... but basically, it wasn't usable. How did you find it?
For what it's worth, I tried Nitrodesk's thing and it wasn't any better. I have a strong suspicion Samsung may have bought it to integrate into their phones actually, as it had the same bugs.

I just bought a Samsung S3 and my experience with the native Activesync and Exchange 2010 is ok but far from great. Here's what I am experiencing:
1) The native Activesync is not matching the contact name in the Activesync Contacts with the incoming SMS message. So, when I am looking at the SMS message in the Android "MESSAGES" icon/app, I DO see a matched 'friendly' name. But, when it gets sent to Exchange via Activesync it drops the friendly name. So, in the Android EMAIL icon/app, I only see the sending phone number.
2) When I'm using the full Outlook client at a computer, I see the TXT message come in and with the full Outlook client it only shows the sender as the 'phone number' and no matching occurs there as well. I think the root cause is no matching at the phone, so it's a pass-through here.
3) When I reply to one of the SMS messages with the full Outlook client at a computer, replyabilility does work and it puts the sending phone number in the TO: field and still no matching.
4) FAIL: In OWA (Exchange 2010) there is NO replyability with the SMS message. You can select REPLY but it does not automatically fill/paste in the destination TO: and you have to manually enter it. This lack of replyability is only with OWA, but the full client.
5) Performance, is fine, messages fly great and instantly.
This is my first Android exerience. I came from a Windows Mobile phone, and I chose the Android function over the iPhone because the iPhone does not support SMS Sync. My phone is stock, no apps added except Facebook. I did try to load Touchdown but I could not get all the functions to work. All that was sync'ing was email, no contacts/SMS/Notes/Calendar....etc. I did not spend more than 10 minutes troubleshooting so I abandoned efforts.
My phone is running 4.0.4, Kernel 3.0.8- 1092717
I promptly disabled my SMS sync. I don't need all my personal text messages flowing through my employer's line of sight. Not saying I have anything to hide, but they just don't need it.

Right guys, I've been told you're the boys and girls to go to to sort Android stuff out, so, here I am with a few q's please.
I started another thread about sync'ing MobileMe with Android and after more research it does seem possible - albeit with 3rd party software.
BUT it won't be possible to Push MobileMe emails, iCal and Contact updates.
Has anyone one here found a workaround for this? (other than me setting up a GMail account )
I want to move away from most things Apple - but due to work reasons need my Mac Pro and my MobileMe account. But a One X or S3 would be much better than an iPhone for me
Sorry guys for the slight bump, but does the silence mean Push is not possible for MobileMe?
Isnt that for apple?

It is, but I have a MobileMe email account, which I really can't afford to lose. Therefore I need to be able to use my Mail, iCal and Contacts with Android.
If it's not possible, I'll unfortunately have to stick with my iPhone... or go through the painful and risky task of changing my email to Gmail!

Yes you can.. I also use Mobileme with my HTC Sensation 4G.
You can download K-9 mail and set your MobileMe account using Push email.
Also you can sync your Gmail Calendar and Contacts with your MAC... just make sure you set your calendar/contacts preferences to sync Gmail... you have an option in each app to check... type your gmail account and that's it!!

Hey folks
I am having an issue with my HTC Evo 3D where I am unable to have more than one active Exchange Activesync (EAS) account syncing. I'm trying to have my work e-mail and my hotmail account with push using EAS.
What I have tried:
- Setting up my work e-mail, then my hotmail. Can receive work e-mails instantly, but not with hotmail.
- Setting up my hotmail, then my work e-mail. Can receive hotmail e-mails instantly, but not with my work e-mail.
- Setting up my work e-mail in one mail client, and my hotmail in a separate client. Same issues as above, one receiving push e-mail and the other not.
And here's something funny: If I set up one and then the other in the default HTC mail client, the first one will work with push the but second one won't. BUT, if I then do a manual sync to make the second one "catch up", that second one will start receiving with push but the first one no longer does. I can keep doing this, and it seems like only one can be "active" at a time.
I've tried different clients with the same results, and tried Touchdown which many people recommend, but Touchdown is built to allow only one active profile at a time (so only one EAS account pushing or polling).
I'm beginning to think it's a device limitation on the Evo 3D but it would be great to get around that - I've seen bits and pieces around saying that, due to licencing, iPhones can have up to 5 EAS accounts at a time, and different Android phones can have varying numbers, but haven't seen anything particularly clear or definitive.
Any help would be much appreciated. I'm running stock ROM, ICS 4.0.3.
Cheers
