How are you configuring your email? Is it a windows live account, yahoo, gmail, etc?
Is it POP3, IMAP, or Exchange?
Personally I had a problem when configuring my windows live account with the default (Exchange) method. Whenever I send an email, it gets sent twice or thrice! I worked-around this issue by using POP3, which has many shortcomings, but it solved that issue.
Windows Live Messenger (@msn.com), it was automatically configured. Do you recommend a certain configuration? Thanks!

The issue I had with duplicate emails was resolved after updating to 3.2
I have a new galaxy tab 10.1 running 3.2 and still have the issue with multiple emails going out, and items not deleting from my deleted mail.
I've tried the stock email as well as K9. I own my own domain and use my own email. I've set it up as an IMAP account. I also have a Samsung Epic and always had the same issue there too.
I really would like a fix for this. It's pretty ridiculous that 'email' is such an issue. It's not like it's a new technology.
Help..

I got same prob with gmail app and my google acc. on my tab (running on Overcome Rom with Pershoot Kernel)
Maybe it has something to do with coustom rom's?
Not sure it has to do with custom Rom. I'm still using stock on my galaxy tab.

there is no point for me to keep the phone without my contacts - must find a solution soon (or confirmation that it cannot be done and get rid of the phone)
What's wrong with keeping your contacts on your Google account?

hi, this is a bit off topic, but I can explain:
I would like to keep my contacts (and info related to them) on devices owned by me.
I DO NOT like how I am "pushed" to use google (or any other account) for keeping my contacts on.
I like to have a choice, at the moment I choose off-line storage on my PC and my phone.
Can it be done like in good old days?
You can just put the contacts on your phone under your Google account and just turn off the sync for the contacts. It will still be on a Google account but it will offline. That's the only option I can think of.

+, you can then delete those contacts from your Google account afterwards if you don't want to store them online after getting them onto the phone.

thank you guys - that seems to be a solution.
Just to make sure I understand correctly:
1. link my phone to my gmail
2. go to settings->accounts->gmail and untick sync contacts, sync email, sync calendar
is this correct?
will it work?
I am factory resetting my phone for a third time already so apologies for asking SO many questions, but I want to make it write this time
Yeah just sign into your account and it will ask you what you want to sync. Just keep anything unchecked for what you don't want to sync.

download via market motorola pim sync ( there is mac and pc version), then download motocast for windows www.mymotocast.com/download
Then you will be able to sync your contacts via outlook.

what happens to Apps after change Gmail address?

Hello, I recently decided to change my Gmail from a immature one to a more professional one, I wonder if there a way to get all the paid apps from the my previous Gmail account to the new Gmail account? I don't want to paid for all the apps again just to use them on my new gmail account.
Thanks.
No I don't think you will, there might be a way to swap Google checkout emails which might do it but....

I ended up paying all my apps again... oh well
you could have set up a secondary e-mail account under accounts on your phone for this. it would allow you to use apps from one while e-mailing from the other
Should've waited xD That sucks

[Q] Exchange on Calendar - some categories not syncing

updated to Jellybean. *I use the built-in calendar app from Android. *I have my Exchange account added, and email comes through fine. *In the calendar, only SOME of my appointments show up. *I figured out that it is certain categories that don't make it through... Personal, Networking, etc don't work but Business, Vacation, Firm Event, etc do. *It's quite strange.
Any fix here? *I have tried deleting the account and re-adding. No problem when I was on ICS.*
Thanks everyone!
Stock calander app?

Remove / change Google account without factory reset

Hope it hasn't already discussed and also it would help you.
In some cases we have to remove google account or me, I just set phones for my friends, clients and need an account.
So for no matter what reasons ( saving mods, themes, settings, contacts etc).
You can remove google account from setting if you have other account for example chaton, facebook. So in Honeycomb, Ics, JB roms disable sync, in options remove google account. Then disable chaton ot facebook from setting /application manager.
Now you have a clear phone you can add new google account, you can re-enable the other application reseted to defaults.
In this case you just changed the owner and every account saving the personalizations.
Have luck boys and girls.
