[Q] Help ! Yahoo mail problem driving me crazy ! - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

I'll make this as simple as possible. When my phone is on (in standby) & I send a mail on my computer two of the people in my 'too' list receive duplicate mails no one else does. Always the same two. When phone is off & I send them a mail they only get one mail. I just got off the phone with Sprint tech support & after an hour of course they can't figure it out. I have the stock mail app & use the downloaded Yahoo mail app which I like better. I think I've tried just about everything I can think of to remedy this but still no luck. I sure hope you folks can figure it out. Phone is stock & have removed duplicate contacts. Maybe my SD card ? If so I don't know how to check that out.

Gmail items not actually being marked read.

Gmail is acting kind of funky on this phone...
Every now and then Ill take a look at the Gmail account on my phone and Ill see:
Inbox (1)
But all my emails have been marked read on the phone. So Ill log in on a desktop, and see that one of my e-mails is unread, even though I just marked it read on my phone.
Sometimes Ill get a zero unread count in my app, login on a desktop and see that Ive got 3 or more that were never marked read.
Gmail used to be the best email experience out there on a mobile device, in my opinion. But its now gotten to the point where this bug plagues just about every email I receive.
Am I the only one? Is there even any action I take to prevent this?
Sounds like a syncing issue. Everything works fine for me. Are you on a custom ROM?
Stock rooted.
I seem to remember having the same issue on my G1 and the myTouch Slide, though not to this gravity. I guess it must have something to do with my account itself, but I would really hope not. Starting over with a new Gmail isnt the most elegant solution...
I'm getting this today too. Frustrating.
my wife's Vibrant can't even sync with gmail since yesterday

Recovering Trash Emails

I set up my email yahoo account on my LG One 2.2 phone. I accidentally deleted an important email and now it is sitting in the Trash folder on my phone. It does not sync with my yahoo account online so it is not recoverable there.
My problem now is getting this email out of the Trash folder on my phone to somewhere I can reply or forward it.
Unfortunately the only options I have on the phone are 'mark as unread' and 'delete'. The reply and forward are greyed out. Since I need to show proof of this email to someone far away i can't really show them my phone.
Since it is there on the phone there must be a place android stores these trashed emails, I have file expert however it is of little help.
Can anyone please advise on how I can get this email back to where I can do something with it?
BUMP..
I am going to swap phones very soon so if this email is located somewhere on the actual phone it may get wiped out and I will not be able to retrieve it...
If anyone has any ideas please reply soon
thanks!!!!!

Yahoo mail problem

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.

lol. I was going to say the same thing. I had yahoo mail for 8 years and finally switched over to gmail earlier this year. best move ever.
Help
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

Carrier's Name: Customer Care - Mobile Email
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.

[Q] Atrix - SMS Issue (Wrong Recipient)

Little frustrated with the Motorola Atrix and wanted to see if anyone had any suggestions.
I am having an issue with SMS messages going to the wrong individual or starting a second threaded conversation with the same contact even though there is only one instance of this contact and one phone number attached. It's very similar to the reported issue 9392 that was supposed to be addressed sometime a while back.
This is my second Atrix and I have experienced the problem on both handsets. My first purchase was back in April of this year and within weeks that problem started to occur. I had tried various custom ROMs and SMS applications - but they all had the same issue.
The second handset was just received this week. I have gone through and completely cleaned up any duplicate contacts and exported them all to a CSV file and re-imported in hopes of finding a culprit contact. I am syncing with Exchange 2007, but had disabled Google Contacts, MotoBlur, Blah, Blah. Now I am only syncing contacts with Google and mail and calendar with Exchange.
I have completely reset the device and running full stock ROM with no applications installed outside of what is included in the image with the phone. Since a majority of my communication is via SMS on my phone - it has become a big hassle. I just get tired of having to apologize and explain my misguided text over and over again.
I have tried several 3rd party SMS apps and all have the same issue.
Anything you guys could suggest would be greatly appreciated. The only thing that I could possibly think of that I have not done is replace the SIM card which is one I got with my first iPhone a few years back.
**Note: I have a WP7 running Mango that does not have this issue.
I'd be leaning toward a bad sim. Why don't you just go to your carrier and get a new one? AT&T has never charged me for a replacement sim. Just explain your issue and that you've tried all other avenues to correct the problem.
For the duplicate thread I was able to solve with
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1210840
others said it didnt work if they were syncing facebook contacts.. I dont sync
contacts with anyone but gmail contacts.
but here is the basis of the fix that worked for me
Ok I think I solved it my last solution wasn't did not continue to work.
your contacts need to be stored / saved as
this format +12223331234 and some work with just 2223331234
but all work with the first (so far)
(111) 222-3333, +1-111-222-3333 both fail
if you look how the sms db stores them its like the format first mentioned and when using that format there are no duplicates

Well, I tried to replace both the SIM and reformatted the numbers as suggested.
However, neither of those worked - so I dug a little more and narrowed it down to Motoblur and adding accounts under it.
I did find that if I did a hard reset of my phone and then used a new email address to setup a 'New' MotoBlur account (since you can't delete or reset an existing one) and then did not add accounts under MotoBlur - the issue resolved itself.
I still added a google account and exchange account - but everything else, like facebook, I downloaded the application to avoid MotoBlur from aggregating information into.
Hope that makes some sense and thanks for the reply.

[Q] Missing Emails - Exchange

Strange missing emails. Since yesterday various emails have disappeared form my inbox on my EVO 3D. Normally my inbox on my desktop and on my phone look the same. For example this morning I deleted the exchange account on the phone, then remade it. Everything downloaded correctly, by the time I got to work I was missing 2 emails. Now in the afternoon I am missing 8 emails. No rhyme or reason. we have rebooted the server and I have tried every combination of settings on the phone. Does anyone have any ideas? TIA

How old are the emails and how many days do you have exchange set to sync?
I have only checked back a few days so I am not sure about anything older. My phone will show say 20 emails in the morning, and this matches my inbox for outlook. Then 2 hours later I will check it and my phone will be missing 12 emails. Even if I sync they don't show up and never do. They are just gone, they are still in my outlook, even outlook web. I have the sync setup for 30 days right now but have tried 7 and 5 I think. Have also deleted account and reestablished a few times. Everything will sync up and look good for say half a day and then emails start disappearing. About ready to do a hard reset. What do you think?
Reset the server again and reestablished the exchange account on the phone. Everything was good until about 2:30 today. Now i am missing 11 emails... Maybe I should shoot the phone with my 357?
Lost everything but one email today. Everything is on my computer but just disappears off the phone. Can't figure this out...
I wish I had the expertise to help you further but I am stumped as well! Is there anyone else in you office that maybe has an Android phone? You maybe can check their settings against yours to see if they match!
Thanks for your help. One other guy has Android and has no issues. I think it is the phone. I will try a hard reset over the weekend and let people know if that worked.
No luck with the hard reset. also borrowed a friends Samsung and set it up with my email and no issues. sprint is sending a replacement phone in the next day or two. I will let you know if that fixes the problem?
Ok, went to sprint service center, they ordered a phone for me. One week later, phone shows up. I get home reset all my stuff and am excited this is going to fix my problem. Next day go to work, sure enough early afternoon Emails start disappearing. I am ready to shoot this phone. Also had the IT guys download and install the software to manage the wireless accounts on the server. had them delete all my accounts and reset them.
still having the same problem... Help

Sounds like possible an issue with HTC software. What app are you using? Have you tried another one.

OK, I have narrowed this down but still no fix. I experimented by not opening my outlook and just worked out of outlook web access for two days. NO MISSING EMAILS. WTF!
Went back to using my outlook and started loosing emails again.
Check all your settings in outlook. Is Outlook only keeping so many days of emails. Since I've never messed with Exchange, I'm not sure how it works, but it could be because outlook imonly shows so many days of emails if set that way, or maybe the app is set to only show so many days.
