I enter my username and password under the yahoo email option in the mail app and it keeps saying I have no new messages but I know I do... Anyone else have this problem or have a manual fix?

Yahoo mail still exists???? Get Gmail if problem persists.
I had the same issue. Even when I switched to display 20 messages from any date, it would say no mail but also say x available on server. If I tapped that it would compose a new message. I haven't used the native mail app in a while so after that I said screw it and went back to K9.
yes
same problem and looking for fix, I'm going to try sending the yahoo text/yahoo mobile from my computer to my phone and see if that works
Had same problem. I skipped it, went to it later and it went through.

I am having same problem. My work uses yahoo mail to post overtime. I am losing cash so I hope they solve this quick. Yahoo is what company adopted for email so switching isn't an option.

You could always use the browser until you get it fixed. Probably something to do with the server ports. I'll dig around on the Hero boards and see if I can find the settings.

3vo. That is all that needs be said.
I am having the same problem. I downloaded the yahoo mail app from the marketplace as a workaround.

Seriously, K9 mail. It's free in the market. It is the best mail app I've seen. And when we finally get some sort of root, you can use titanium backup to backup your data and if you switch roms or whatever use that to restore your accounts and settings instantly.
It appears to be a known issue. I cannot get my Yahoo mail to open using the stock Email app either, I can send but I cannot receive. You can use the Yahoo Mail app, that works just fine and has a nice user interface, but me, personally I prefer using the regular Mail app for all three of my email addresses. My Yahoo address is only mainly for crap. If people think using Yahoo is archaic, I use ***gasp*** *OH NO’S*** my ISP email address which is where all my important stuff goes, banking stuff and so on, and the address I give out to close friends and family. Only reason I have a Gmail account is because you’re forced to in order to use an Android phone. Hopefully a fix for this problem is in the works.
I'm surprised anyone uses anything other than gmail with an android device for personal email.
Same problem here. Started happening just yesterday for me.
A Sprint rep told me that Yahoo blocked port 25 on their servers which is causing issues across all phone platforms. He also said that Yahoo wants to start charging people for Yahoo Plus in order for it to work, but I have found no confirmation of that. As a matter of fact, I found at least one Yahoo Plus user who is also having this problem using the native mail app from another HTC phone.
I have contacted Yahoo about the issue and will post their response here when I get it. However, it does seem to be a very widespread problem.
I will be waiting for an answer because I would rather use sense for emails then the app.
glad I wasn't the only one.
same problem here. I noticed I was not getting yahoo mails today. I use mine for business, and frankly don't ever want to use another email. Yahoo has been consistent, reliable for me for over 14 years.
I downloaded and installed the Enhanced Email app on the Amazon Appstore today.. special for today only for 4.99... seems like a good program..
I did not know about K9,, I could have saved the 4.99... but I think the Enhanced email app has a lot of features I haven't started using yet.
same issue with yahoo..
set up quickly.. but no emails coming in...
and yea been using Yahoo for years.. not going to switch because gmail is android friendly lol
i want a fix too, i use gmail, hotmail, and yahoo and want them all on my phone with stock software. depends on who i am giving my email to or sending to as to which account i use

I have the new HTC Evo 3D and Yahoo mail does not work with the
native HTC Mail app. Before this phone, I had the original HTC Evo and
Yahoo worked fine with the HTC app over the course of one year that I
had that phone. I upgraded to this phone last week, and for 5 days
Yahoo was working fine on the HTC mail app, but it stopped working
yesterday. Gmail and my work email still work through the HTC mail app
and my Yahoo mail is still working on my computer, so I believe the
problem is on Yahoo's end.
Please advise if this issue had already been reported and if it is being
worked on.

I use Gmail for personal use (friends/relatives) and Yahoo for commercial use ie. Amazon, Netflix, forum addresses, etc.. Keeps my Gmail absolutely spam free and when I get a Gmail I know it is really an email I want to see and have pushed to my 3VO.
I had the Yahoo set up problem too, just got my 3VO yesterday. Finally got it to work with the standard mail app. Turned out to be a security issue on my account, and after I changed my password to a more secure one, and after I signed on to the account from my 3VO browser, I was able to set it up using the manual mode (IMAP).
Remember to remove the "htc." from the incoming and outgoing server addresses though.
Hello, I am in England,UK. My fone is jacked up big time. I got it on Thursday, and am unable to create the e:mail account on the fone in the apps section. I can create a G:mail account on it which I don't need through the G:mail thing, but am unable to do so on the e:mail icon.My account is yahoo, and am told because it is yahoo, it is complete competition with google, therefore the fone will absolutely not be able to use yahoo on it. Is this true? if so, then I have wasted 500 quid on a paperweight thats too light to weigh down paper.
I am on Vodafone, and I rang them on Sunday morning, and they told me to change the proxy numbers and the port number. The fone is factory standard, was brand new on Thursday, and is on Andoird 404.
Ask Jack to try this first .

Thanks for the link, however, after trying for the last 15 minutes to try get to work, still no joy. Will installing the new jellybean softwae help when it comes out? It doesn't look like this fone wants to work properly. First Dobby, now this!!
Just use the yahoo app? I used to use yahoo years ago but made the change to Gmail well worth it.

The competition with Yahoo has no bearing on whether Yahoo accounts will work. I just set up a Yahoo account there and it is having no problems sending or receiving mail through the email app. What exactly is happening when you try to set up an account?
Use the yahoo app. My wife uses her yahoo account everyday. No problem sending/receiving emails. What happens when u try to set the account???
Hi, ok, when I go to the create an e:mail screen, I fill in the full e:mail adress, and enter the password, the it has the working circle, checking incoming servers for about 20 secs, then comes up with message box saying,' Username and password incorrect'. Thats it.
I HAVE for the time being signed in using the fone's app, but that is a manual receiving system, I don't want to check IF I have mail, the creating the account thing alerts me when I DO get mail right? So I can go straight to it without having to sign in constantly via the fone's app.
It worked fine from the first time I signed in the my Nokia N900, Nokia E7, HTC HD2, but this Samsung won't do it.
I had the same problem and a few other people. Here's how I got my Yahoo to work on my S3. Log in to your Yahoo account on the computer/laptop. Change the password and save. Now do the same on your phone. It worked for me and the other people who had this same problem.
Good luck
If johnw's fix doesn't work, have you tried setting up an account manually? Presuming you used the automatic set up thing.
I have been searching and cannot find a solution to this. Can Themer give a unread mail count for mail accounts other than just the gmail account?
Dont think so sadly =(

Unfortunately not, we are working on this feature though. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Ditto on this request, but I have another question that's similar (same?)... I have Gmail and Corporate email accounts I have to monitor. It seems just about every theme has just one email, one sms, and so on. I love the themes and the application overall, but the rigidity of icon placements and selections in the themes makes it hard to replace my stocker for work use.
Is there an ETA for when this will work? I don't use gmail and yet, I'm forced to see "0" for email. Also, shouldn't have to be logged in just to use a theming program. Let me go online to "see" new themes but requiring that I'm online is a waste of bandwidth and battery.

the application is great, but I only use that email exchange, you have a date for a version that would display the number of e-mail ?
If you associate your other accounts with gmail though,shouldn't this solve the issue partly ?

Hi,
We can't give an exact ETA, but it won't be anytime soon. The amount of resources required to integrate accounts other than Gmail would require a large of time from the developers which would put everything on hold - which is something we just can't afford at this moment in time. We apologize for the inconvenience.
Regarding the login box, this is for security reasons on our side, in the event that someone breaches our servers.
Thanks for the hard work, can't wait for other email accounts to be integrated :good:
I just recently upgraded my phone to cm12 lollipop and after reinstalling all my apps, I discovered that Go SMS Pro had lost the premium features that I purchased last year. While waiting for a response from their support, I figured out the issue - I have 2 google accounts on my phone, and while I did connect it to the correct account when it asked which account to use, it still was associating to the wrong one. You can see which account its associating with (if you don't have premium features) when you go to re-purchase the premium features. Before paying, it'll confirm payment option and lists the email address for the google account you will be paying from. Once you see it, you can back out without paying...
To fix it, I had to remove the incorrect google account from my phone in Settings -> Accounts -> Google and then make Go SMS recheck for premium features purchase. A reboot might do this, but I didn't do that so I don't know. Uninstalling/reinstalling Go SMS might do it as well, but again I didn't do that so I don't know. What I did was opened Go SMS and then went to Settings ->Ad Block. Then selected the exact same package I already purchased and then clicked the pruchase button. This forced Go SMS to check the only remaining google account on my phone for purchase options, which is when it saw that it was already purchased and simply activated my premium features. It never asked for payment method or confirmation, and a charge never hit my account (besides the original one from a year ago). After the premium features were activated I added the other google account back on. In the future, I'll probably wait for go sms to be installed and used before putting the second account on my phone.
Hopefully this will help someone else out, since it seems from a google search that people aren't getting support from the Go SMS dev team on losing their premium features.

I have 5 gmail accounts on my V10. Only one is selected to sync contacts. When I use the dialer I start typing a number and start to see choices from other unsynced gmail accounts. When I select other account as visible in the contacts app it populates the supposed unsynced account with names. I have tried clear contact storage a couple times but it keeps syncing the contacts I told it not to. This is getting frustrating. Any suggestions?

5 gmail accounts? amazing, i just have 1, did not see this issue before. try some email app.
The issue isn't related to an email app.
Do you use Google +?
If so, the first time of use, it asks if you want to sync all your G+ contacts.
I made this mistake once and now I have thousands
Sent from my LG-H901 using Tapatalk
I don't use G+ and all the contacts are not synced to one account. The are listed under each individual gmail account. The issue only happened after moving to the V10. My note 4 didn't have this issue.
Any further suggestions?
can anyone confirm they have same problem
Anyone able to try duplicating this issue?
This happened to me on the Moto X (first generation) ... I've been screwed ever since.
My problem with this is how invasive - while at the same time disruptive, repetitive and completely unnecessary this unauthorized merge is as it duplicates contacts.
Example:
1. I have 1 email (& matching Contact List) for work and work related contacts. These contacts include only their work phone and email - and in some instances their work cell # -- which of course would be labeled "mobile" as that was the only labeling option a decade ago.
2. I have 1 email (& matching Contact List) for my friends. These contacts include only their personal phone and email. Although there are a few cell phone numbers that match the business cell, the rest of the info is unique to their personal life.
*** Part 2 of this Contact List is their wives/sig-other gets a Contact Listing - to which repetitive info like the land line and maybe e-mail address is entered, but more importantly their individual cell number. This makes contacting them individually an easy task without guessing what cell number goes to the husband or the wife ... and in some instances ... their kids (who sometimes baby/dog sit). [This may sound rather convoluted to you younger kids, but 10 years ago we didn't have the option of custom labeling the phone numbers, only a short pull-down list of Home, Cell, Fax ... so this is how we did it ... and a decade later with several hundred entries, we're NOT going back to redefine all these fields and merge contact lists as this is still an easy system].
Well - a while back when the Droid X came out, I loaded each email profile into the phone separately - Google/Droid decided to merge all contacts and it's been a friggin' disaster ever since! I went from 200 to 800 contacts in different email/contact profiles, to one, bigass, convoluted, double, triple, quadrupled contact list that is impossible to tell which one is from the Work List or the Personal List or any other miscellaneous list I had .... a 4000K Contact list for every email account - not just g-mail, but Outlook and Windows too! ! !
I've yet to find any app that can simplify or remedy this for me ... (I've spent WEEKS looking for one ... so about a year ago, I took several days and merged all the Contacts into one Gmail list and custom labeled EVERYONE on those lists into one, clear, concise list. I admit that I'm anal about keeping things organized and in clear and concise manner and this may seem nutty to some ... but I also don't make the mistakes my friends make with mis-dials and wrong numbers.
I've had some issues ... (hint: once done, copy to a window computer, then go and delete every back up you ever made of every contact list in every e-mail file to prevent reloading old files into the new, revised Contact list.) ... but I stay on top of it and delete or modify any duplicate. I'm almost back to being sane ... probably because I haven't stopped drinking ;- )
It's going to be a long and lonely road back to sanity. Google is invasive and loves getting all the info it can and will "F" up the way you kept it.
Good luck with a solution. Please post a solution if you find one.
I have three Gmail accounts on my phone. Mine, my daughters and wife's. I only want to sync the calendar, but it also syncs the contacts. Especially if I get a text from my brother, it will come up as Uncle.....(my daughter's account). I tried contacts sync fix as I read in a forum once that LG phones have an issue with broken contacts if you have an I.C.E. contact listed (in case of emergency). This did fix it for about two weeks and then something happened and I was back to seeing my wife's and daughter's contacts over mine.
If you find a solution, please let me know.
