Gmail apk doesn't send email from just an account - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi to all of you!
I have a very fastidious problem : my gmail apk doesn't send email from one of my two account. If try to send the same email from the other account, I have no problem. Both of these accounts are gmail, of course. If I try to send the same email from the first account but by gmail site in the browser or from email stock apk instead the gmail one, everything works.
Gmail apk from this account works very well for everything except sending email, I have no problem with receiving or other things.
I am on Hyperdroid v7 but I had same problem on Criskelo or previous hyperdroid version.
Please, help me!

You can only have one Gmail account as your default with the stock gmail app. If you want to send an email from another gmail account from within the same app then you have to set it as the default if I'm not mistaken. The only workaround is to use a third party mail app that allows you to designate from which account you are sending the mail each time you hit send. If I'm wrong someone please correct me.

Use K9 or similar. Gmail app is rubbish.

I have solved for the moment deleting gmail data from settings.
I don't think I can't have more than one gmail account, I have two accounts right now.
I am going to try k9. Thanks!

Newest Gmail for 2.1?

What is the newest version of Gmail that works for android 2.1? Im having issues with stock email client and Gmail works even though the others dont so i want to add my AOL mail acct into Gmail so i can access it through there, however whatever version i have does not have the function to add another account, let alone a non-gmail account. I think the newer versions can do this fine, can anyone link me an apk of it? The market doesnt have it. K9mail also did not work for me.

Try making a gmail account and have aol forward all your email to that gmail address. Put your new email address into the gmail client.

I tried that and i couldnt find a forwarding function within AOL mail :/
Forgot aol is really limited in their mail client. Maybe you should upgrade to gmail. Its free

[Q] How to consolidate all my email to one application

Hi all,
I recently bought a Droid 2 Global. It has 3 mail apps: 1 app from motorola, 1 app from verizon and 1 gmail app. How to consolidate all three to just one. I can import my yahoo mails to one of the universal mail apps. But not able to import emails from my google app mail account.
So currently i am using gmail app and an universal email app for yahoo.

You can always pop your other accounts into gmail, apply a label and be done with it. This is how I manage my emails.
Look in the market for K9 Mail.
Will do all your emails (multiple accounts) and even throw them into a unified inbox display if you want.

This. i have a gmail account for myself, and a seperate one for my band. i link my band email to my personal one and slap a label on it and call it done. then i when i sign into my personal email using the gmail app, my band emails are automatically there, dont even have to bother putting in the login info for that email address.

Sounds like a great idea
I have a little different issue. I have a mail account to which I have two different mail addresses assigned (one is alias).
I would like to send some official mails from one address, which contains my name, and some personal mails or mails to "unknown" people who do not need to know my name from the second address.
On PC, in Mozilla Thunderbird, is option for "identities" where you can add additional mail address/identity to the same account.
Is there any mail client for Android which could do it also? Other option is to run two mail accounts with same server and login settings and different mail address, but in that case I will receive each incomming mail to both.
Hope I explained it well
Thanks in advance for advices.
K9 mail is what I use.
Push email for my aol and gmail accounts.
The stock email application does not offer push for many providers.

But I don't want to just push mails from different accounts.I want to push from one account using two different source addresses.And I should be able to choice from which I want to push.

The best cliente Mail is the Enhanced Email.
First input your gmail acount to active the others acount.
Sorry for my bad english.
My "issue" was solved...found in K9 option for identities...

Hey, theecho... I have looked for an option to "just pop" my other accounts in to Gmail, and and can't see how I could. When I try to just add another email account into gmail (a pop3 for example, one I already have within the 'blur' email app) Gmail politiely tells me I already have this account added.
How do I do what you've suggested?

[Q] Sense Mail App Marks all Gmail as Unread

Hi, I searched the forums but could not find any thread that dealt with this issue (for any phone), so I apologize if it's already been posted. And since I don't know if this is just an issue with the Rezound, I'm posting it here.
When I set up my Rezound I entered in my Google account info, and the phone automatically set up my Gmail account both in the Gmail app and in the stock HTC Sense Mail app. The Gmail app seems to work fine, but the stock email app doesn't sync the read status of new messages. If I get any emails in Gmail during the day, even if I log into it on my computer and read the messages, they still show up as unread in the sense mail app. Refreshing the app doesn't change anything. In the Gmail app, the messages will be marked as read if I have viewed them anywhere else.
I can't figure out how to fix this, and there doesn't seem to be a way to edit any server settings for the account, as sense has it registered as a Gmail account in the stock mail app, and not as a pop/imap account.
Anybody having this problem, or know how to fix it? I'm a new android user, and have only had this phone for a few days. Thanks.
Just take the gmail email out of the htc mail and just use the gmail email app to get your gmail mail.

I would like to avoid doing this if possible. I like having all my mail in one place. Any way to fix the stock app?
Email htc/usa and ask them. It only takes one second to push the gmail app,that's what I do. I understand you don't want to do that. Htc should be able to tell you how to change the settings.

I got an official reply from HTC:
Thank you for contacting HTC Technical support about the issue you are having with your Gmail account on your device. I do apologize that you have this issue with your device and I will gladly assist you with this today. We recommend you delete your Gmail account from the mail application on your device and use the Gmail application for your Gmail account on your device. The issue you are having it with the way the Gmail POP3 servers work with the Mail application on the device and there is not a setting to make it sync up to have the mail show up read until you up it on your device.

So it looks like, for whatever reason, the Gmail setting in the sense email app defaults to POP3, even though I have IMAP enabled in my gmail web settings. Unless anyone knows a way to fix this, I guess I will have to either set Gmail up as a regular IMAP account or just use the standalone application.
Thanks for the replies

[Q] What counts as a google account?

I just got my note the other day and when it asked for a google account I just entered my gmail account since that was the first thing that popped into my head. I hardly use my gmail though since I only made it for my cosplay profiles on facebook and google+. I added another account to my phone logging in with my yahoo email since my yahoo email is linked to my main google+ and youtube. Now since my yahoo is linked to youtube and google+ does that count as a google account or does a google account have to be with gmail? I tried to un sync my gmail account from my phone but I was told I would have to put the phone back on factory settings so I just un synced the email part of the account.
When I start buying music and videos from the play store I do not want things to get confusing so since I have logged into my phone using my yahoo account and un synced the email part of the gmail account does that mean any purchases will be linked to the yahoo account with google+ and youtube? Should I link my yahoo to my gmail or would that just make things more confusing? I just switched over from an iphone so I am still trying to figure all this out.
Leave Yahoo mail and just use gmail and all the confusion goes away. Send an email to all contacts about the email address switch and leave Yahoo synced to gmail for awhile until the switch is complete then you can delete it. email accounts are disposable these days.
Btw as to what counts as a google account. The answer is of course a google account :/

whos on first??
just use gmail and link your yahoo to your gmail account, and you can send and receive emails through yahoo via the gmail app... you will have to link the accounts in gmail settings:good:
So linking my yahoo and gmail will just make it so my yahoo is connected to my gmail and I will basically get all my yahoo emails in my gmail account? As for deleting my yahoo won't that mess up my facebook and google+ accounts though as I use that email to log in to them? As I mentioned in my first post I use my gmail for my cosplay accounts on facebook and google+ so if I delete my yahoo email wouldn't I be locked out of logging into my normal facebook and google+ accounts since my gmail is already in use?
You dont have to delete anything. You can keep your yahoo account for emails and user your gmail for the phone.
Also download the yahoo mail app or use the stock email app fpr emails of nongoogle accounts. Simple

Don't delete anything just use your gmail account to send receive delete whatever on both your yahoo and gmail account I do the same thing with mine I have two email accounts as well
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
Ok so just combine the 2 accounts? And that won't affect my 2 facebook, twitters, and google+ accounts? Even with the accounts merged I can still log into my normal social media accounts with yahoo and my cosplay ones with gmail? Any purchases I make in the playstore will be linked to that one big account? I just want to make sure I absolutely understand before I do this.
To merge the accounts, in gmail I go to settings>accounts and import>send mail as (add another email address you own)> then when the window pops up type in my name and e mail address and un check the alias box, select send through gmail, then send verification.
Use your yahoo as a Gmail account. If it won't let you through the phone I believe you can do it on YouTube. I have a yahoo Gmail secondary account.
Your Gmail account for the phone doesn't have to end in Gmail.com

If you want to keep your Yahoo email address as your main address you can (My google account ends with @msn.com)
Go to google and create a new Account. Use your yahoo address as your username. You'll be able to log in to Google products using this username, just keep in mind that even if it has the same name as your Yahoo account it is a different account.
Once you are all set up with your new Google account add your existing GMail account. From this point you'll be able to log in using your Yahoo name, but Google will say that your default account name is your GMail name. (When I flash a new rom and I enter my Google info I always use my @msn.com account and Android is smart enough to synch with my gmail account).
Now that you have a Google Account and GMail go to your Yahoo e-mail service and set it up to forward all your e-mail to your gmail account (I did this in hotmail). From now on all your Yahoo mail will be delivered to GMail. You can use the Gmail app in android to view all your mail. You can add more e-mail accounts if you want. Doing this all your Facebook, Tweeter, etc accounts that are linked to your Yahoo account don't need to be changed and all the notifications will pop up in GMail.
Another thing to do in GMail settings is to chose the account that will be default when you reply to a message. In this step I chose my @msn.com account. All my contacts keep sending messages to my @msn.com account and they have no idea I'm using Google. When they receive an e-mail from me it looks like if it was sent from my @msn.com account, even tough I used GMail.
Do some research in GMail settings. You can add several accounts and manage them from one centralized location. If you want to differentiate between e-mail received you can always set default labels depending on the account where the e-mail was received originally.
Ok I have enough information I I understand what you guys are saying now. Plus I logged into google play from my web browser using my google+ log in that uses my yahoo and it worked so pretty much all my questions have been answered. Thank you to all of you who helped me out.

Exchange & Gmail on LP

Has anyone managed to configure an exchange account with Gmail on the 690 LP ROM.
From a fresh install there isn't the option for adding the account.
I have tried removing the system gmail app and exchange2 apk and reinstalling the latest exchange services and the Gmail app from the Play Store.
The account configures fine after this, but only syncs the folders and not the emails. Then it force closes exchange services.
Has anyone got it working properly?
Thanks...
I'm using stock gmail app and email app and they work perfectly.

Hi,
My gmail accounts work great. Its just exchange emails that are the issue. Once exchange services is installed you get a third option!
The folders sync but the no emails arrive!

Are you adding a new Android user profile or just an email account from your existing profile?
Email account to existing account. Looking on Google doesn't bring much joy about Exchange services working on 5.0.2!
