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.
By default gmail.com displays as full desktop version which does not allow you to scroll. The mobile and html sites display bad as well.
Here is the link for the android / iPad gmail.
https://mail.google.com/mail/Mu
If it does not display logout, click the link, and login again.
im using the inbuilt email app myself, i find it really good and intuitive to use, the stock apps on webos all seem to be really high quality, shame it couldnt get its user base sooner :/
I get "unable to resolve host".
EDIT: Nevermind... I'm an idiot.
EDIT 2: Still doesn't let you scroll.
what's wrong with the built in email app it works just fine

Thanks for the information! I have been looking for a way to get a tablet interface for Gmail. I missed having threaded conversations and the other nice Gmail features.

It just loads the regular Gmail for me. I've tried logging out clicking the link and logging in and I've tried doing it by deleting cookies and cache.
Edit: Managed to get it to load the iPhone/Android (not iPad) version by putting the M in lowercase. Version isn't useful for me as it lacks the option to send from other accounts set up in Gmail. I'll try an older desktop version.
Edit: I suppose that my only option for now is using desktop Gmail and setting emails to 10 per page.
I've been on Android about 6 months now. First I had a Galaxy Note & now I have a Galaxy Note 2. In that time I've tried around 30 email clients (some free & some paid versions) but I've still not some across a client that can offer me some (what I consider) very simple features.
What I'd like the client to do is:
1. Be able to resize within the email view so I can see the whole email (or at least the width of it if the mail is longer than one page length). This is such a simple thing but the only one I've found that does this is the official Hotmail client but that brings with it a whole load of other issues... Even the Gmail client doesn't let you do this & you're forced to scroll around the screen trying to put together a virtual jigsaw puzzle in your head of what the whole email should look like.
2. Be able to set an option in the settings to always allow images. Again a simple feature. Something similar to the Gmail app would also be OK where you set it for each sender separately.
3. Always display as HTML.
4. Push notifications that display the message title/sender in the notification.
Hopefully someone knows of such a client but I haven't found one yet.
Thanks for your help people.

Have you tried Enhanced Email? It does all these things that you're looking for.

Thanks. I downloaded Enhanced Email from the play store. It does most of the stuff but doesn't let you know the source or title of the incoming mail. Just tells you that you have new mail.
Also having some problems with formatting emails in mobile view.
It's probably the best I've tried though.
You probably won't find an email client that tells you the sender and title because usually people receive multiple emails at a time from various senders.
And try K 9 mail
Sent from my DROID2 using xda premium
Having used enhanced email for a few days I can say that it's definitely not up to use full time. When ever I reboot my phone it deletes my Hotmail account, it doesn't notify properly, has no push for Gmail, can't format html into mobile view effectively & has a poor gui. Very expensive for why it does.
I have tried K9 before & unless it's been updated recently there isn't an option to resize an email so that the while mail is displayed at once is there?

What do you mean resize your email? You can pinch to zoom in it though, I used it a week or so ago

Yes, you can pinch to zoom but I'd like to display the whole email on screen at once & then decide which part of the email I'd like to zoom into (if any). K9 & most other Android clients don't allow this. The only app that I've found that can do this at all is the official Hotmail app but the rest of the app is so basic its shocking. It doesn't allow you to always show images & on my current phone its a 3 click process to show images (in every mail you view). It also truncates all mails to a maximum of 100kb do anything over this takes a further 3 clicks to display properly. Very poor.
Try Aquamail. I absolutely love it, and it has all these features. Their mobile view is the main reason I use it. Make sure you pick up the latest beta version 4 here: www.aqua-mail.com/?page_id=217
The mobile view used to be incorporated into the appstore version. The developer took it out temporarily, and it is only in the latest beta.
Bypass Exchange Policies
Bypass Exchange security policies for Microsoft Outlook and Gmail.
This Xposed module will attempt to bypass the security policies that e-mail applications might want to enforce when you add new Exchange accounts. Currently only Microsoft Outlook and Gmail for devices running Lollipop and above are supported. Some applications - like Gmail - apply obfuscation (with a tool like ProGuard) to prevent tampering with the code. It's possible that this module stops working for future Gmail updates if classes and/or class members receive new random names compared to the previous version. Feel free to submit pull requests fixing bugs or version incompatibilities or adding support for new applications.
Download
Please refer to the GitHub releases page to download the Xposed module until the module is not made available in the Xposed Repository.
Changelog
Please refer to the CHANGELOG file for the full changelog details.

I've just tried this module but it doesn't work for me unfortunately. I want to add my work e-mail account so that I can sync its calendar into my phone.

After filling in the Exchange connection details, I was brought to the following screens:
Remote security administration
Account options
Activate device administrator?
Your account is set up and email is on its way!
Security update required
So, I'd say the module isn't working for me.

Are you referring to Gmail or Outlook? And what's the full version of the app?
Also, can you post the Xposed log? You can get it from Xposed Installer.

As I suspected, since Gmail is obfuscated with ProGuard, new versions generate new random names for class names/members and the Xposed hooks fail because it can't find the proper methods.
I'm afraid it won't be possible to have an Xposed module that works consistently for Gmail. It would need to be updated every time a new version is released and that's not feasible for me, sorry.
I've made the code open-source for lots of reasons and one of those is so that people can submit pull requests to fix problems like this. I currently don't have the time to look into this, maybe someone else might take a look. In the mean time here's what you can try if you want:
Remove your Exchange accounts.
Downgrade to 6.5-1.123769152.release.
Enable the module (don't forget to reboot).
Configure your Exchange account.
Upgrade to latest version available.

Ok, I just took a quick look to the latest Gmail version, compared both applications decompiled source and only found a single difference of relevance.
That difference was in the dialog popup that appears when setting up an account with Exchange policies. If that is really the only difference, when you get that dialog, just press "OK" to "accept" the dialog and continue with the account process creation. After this step, can you finish the setup configuration without being asked to setup a device administrator or it still doesn't work?

Yes @Nazgulled, version 1.0.1 sure does work for Gmail 6.6.125987275! Thanks man.
I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong or if what I'm trying to do isn't in the scope of this, but I can't seem to get this module to stop my company's Exchange security settings from disabling Smart Unlock.
Any help would be greatly appreciated,

Are you using Gmail or Outlook?
Make sure you have the latest version installed for the app you use (check http://www.apkmirror.com and download new version if necessary).
For this module to work, you'll need to remove your Exchange account from the e-mail client (check the settings, accounts and device admins and make sure everything related to that account is removed) and then re-add it with the module activated. Don't forget to reboot your phone after enabling the module in Xposed Installer.
If this didn't help, please be more specific. Detail exactly what you are trying to do, post screenshots or record a short video demonstrating the issue.

Currently, both. I use the Outlook app to view/reply to my work emails, and I use the Gmail (connected to the same account) in order to get my meetings to show up in my Google Calendar (if this is possible - I can't find the setting - to do this only using the Outlook app, I'm all ears).

I attempted to do this, but I didn't ensure that Smart Lock was allowed after removing the account and re-adding it, so I'll try again, including this step, and report back.

I don't think it's possible, that's a limitation on the Outlook app. A really frustrating one.

Hi, Nuzgulled, v1.0.1 running with Outlook Version: 2.1.33 worked. Thanks for the great work!
Just want to check if you will extend the support to Email app, I'm using Email version 12.0.A.0.9, which should be AOSP compatible.
Thanks in advance for any feedback.

I thought Nine had a built in option to bypass Exchange security, but it must not work if so. Have you tried this?

Hi,
When I opened an email attachment for the first time, I got a prompt message to choose the default app. I select google drive for always. Now, I want to change that default app but couldn't. I would be grateful if anyone can advise me the proper way. My phone is Huawei mate 10 Pro.

The OP means how to set or change a corresponding default app such as google drive for an attachment type of email.
So, I don't think that 'Settings - Apps - Settings - Default app setting' could achieve what she/he had wanted.
