I just got my RAZR MAXX yesterday and miss this app.
It contained all of my email accounts and SMS icon. It showed which ones had new emails, etc. All I can find on ICS is basically a unified inbox widget of the actual messages.
Anyone know of an app to do something similar to the old Messaging App? I have looked in the play store but don't find anything similar.
OR, preferably, does anyone know of what the APK was called so I can try to find it and install it? I really miss this feature. My luck is it is going to be a system feature.
they could have taken ANYTHING else out of ICS but I wish they would have left the UNIVERSAL MESSAGING WIDGET alone ..... I MISS IT TOO

I wish I had the knowledge to extract or find the apk. But I am sure it is a system app and built in.
You should see the chat log I had with Motorola on this issue. And if it was available in ICS anywhere.
It basically ended with them responding that this "Is a new feature added when they went from Gingerbread to ICS!" LOL I said IT IS MISSING, NOT ADDED you DUMBASS!!!
My work around it's by stacking text, emails and my im together on home screen.. Not as good but will do for now.

Can you elaborate and post a screen shot?
The closest thing I can find just for email, is when you click the email icon it usually opens to the last inbox. At the top is an email icon, and it says Inbox and which email account. If you click Inbox, it gives you a dropdown with a list of your email accounts and the number of unread messages plus the option to create combined inbox. You can switch email accounts there. But I would still like them to all show like in a folder without having to click the dropdown. There is also a 1 x 1 email widget that you can set to a specific account. Do one for each account. Then those can be combined into a folder, but you don't get the number of unread emails superimposed on the account icon like the old app.

Okay so I tried posting this in the general section and I didn't really get too much help. I tried calling Motorola support and the guy was talking to me like I was stupid. What happens is I get two email notifications in the notification bar. One with the y! Symbol and one with the @symbol. Every time I get an email both of these notifications pop up and this used to not happen before. It seems like it should be a very simple fix. Yet I haven't had any luck fixing it. Anyone else with this problem

I'm assuming you have some yahoo mail app? Hence the y!
You should be able to turn off notifications for either one of those. Just pick which app you want to be your main email client, open the one you don't want to use, hit the options menu button (the left-most soft button that has 4 squares on it), and disable notifications and you could probably tell it to never check for messages/sync.

Is there supposed to be a yahoo mail app? because i just see that blue email app. And under accounts and motoblur account, it shows the email with the @ icon, the username is blocked out and im only allowed to enter a password and when i do that, it says please enter a username. I can't delete that account
I dunno man. the only thing I can think of that would use a notification that looks like y! is some yahoo app. check all your apps in the app drawer and look for anything yahoo related.

I had this same problem and couldn't get around it. I created the problem (I think) by using Titanium Backup to restore the email/messages. It was after I re-flashed the retail sbf to get root on .57. I reflashed the sbf a second time and didn't restore from Ti (only restored apps plus data). It turned out Motoblur kept that info anyway once I logged in after reflashing. (the email account was there).

It was a few weeks back when I did this so I am a little hazy but it appears that Moto must populate the email fields on the phone from their server level. If I recall correctly my 3 accounts (one exchange, one pop3 and one gmail) were all there after I reflashed and just logged into Motoblur after the second reflash. The Ti email/messaging restore must do something to corrupt the pop3 accounts. Like you, I couldn't figure out a way to get rid of the account and just re-enter the data.

Oh okay looks like ill have to do that then....first im gonna have to find the fastest way to get back to where I am now

This bugs the hell out of me as well. I get two different notifications when I get one email from one source. One is the @ red stamp looking icon, and the other is the standard gray envelope. I'm on GingerBlur, and I've been looking for a way to get rid of one or the other notifications and can't find where to remove one of them.
There has to be a way to do this other than a re-flash.
Oh, wow didn't see this thread when I posted in another one. I suggest checking universal inbox or other all in one messaging apps to make sure there aren't multiple apps notifying you about email, since just on the phone are 3 email apps, one for Gmail, one for yahoo, and one for all of them.
Also if you do decide to sbf, get titanium backup and do a batch backup of your apps, and then redownload titanium backup and restore the backup after you sbf. It made things much easier when I sbfed.

Anyone recommend a "one size fit all email app" like the iphone, for Att S2?
I'm using Exchange, yahoo, gmail. I have lots of folder in my exchange mail and the stock Mail is sux.
Moxier mail is good but only have 1 email acc. I need an app that can put all mails in one place and showing folders instead of coupel apps for emails.
Thanks
I use Gmail for all of my accounts. I set Gmail up to retrieve (pop) mail from my Yahoo account and my other email address forwards to Gmail. I have labels set up, which allows me to organize it. I've been doing this for a while and it works really well.
What about Exchange, all folder will show or i have to go settings and choose specific folder to view? it's a pain in the bu.. . I really like the way iphone's emails handle.

I've never used Exchange, but if you were able to successfully configure it for pop retrieval, it'd work just as your other email addresses, in terms of how you view them (outlined below). Otherwise, perhaps forwarding is an option. For the email address I have forwarding, I set up filters (scans incoming emails for defined rules) to apply labels (e.g., when the sender or recipient is ______, apply this label). It's something you'd have to toy around with, but I've gotten mine set up pretty well.
All emails would show in your Gmail account inbox (with labels on each one, if you've done this) and you have the ability to specifically select a label to only see mail with that label. This is something you can do online or on your device via the Gmail app (viewing individual labels). I've tried just about every email client and I've found that this method is what works best for me.
Good luck.

I was set up like this as well for quite some time - and it worked well. Recently switched to using maildroid, which I like, but haven't customized to get more functionality than I had with gMail yet...
What's wrong with the stock mail client? Seems really nice to me. Should support all of those account types and you can switch folders very easily.

The problem is with stock email. My folders didn't go in order some + subfolders.... Moxier mail gives exactly the folder in order like the outlook also display the number for new email....like the MS Outlook in computer.
I just reinstalled Moxier mail and use stock mail for yahoo, gmail also. Oh well, no choice

The stock email client is very nice and seems to work very well with Exchange. From what I've seen so far:
1) Tasks will sync
2) Folders are supported, much nicer and easier than with the Captivate
3) Flags are supported
4) Various display options such as first line preview, threaded emails, etc
5) Out of Office settings can be made from phone.
6) You can search emails on the server, not just those on your phone
7) In landscape it'll do a preview pane on the right-hand side. Not bad.
Try it, you've got nothing to lose. Seems pretty nice so far. The only thing I am missing is the ability to "check" multiple emails and take an action on a group of them (e.g., delete them all). You need to do it one-by-one. But so far it works well.
Anybody know if the stock email client can be set up for "push only" so it doesn't poll every x minutes for new mail?
Another vote for enhanced email. You can bypass exchange security rules

Enhanced Email is what youre looking for. I'm a huge Exchange user and this program easily integrates and works just like it does on iphone. You can choose which folders to keep in sync and it will notify you whenever a new message arrives in sub-folders.
The only problem I have with the stock email app is that you can't "Select All" and delete. That capability, and the ability to forward emails by clicking on several contacts and adding them , as the stock program does, are two features I really like; however, I can't find an email program that has both capabilities.

I installed Enhance email. However, it looks alike stock mail (may be I haven't explorer it much). I do like Moxier mail because it's giving me the interface just like Outlook (folder is in order same as my work laptop). Unfortunately, Moxier mail only have 1 account. Wish i can add other acc then it should be PERFECT
Anyone else having this problem or know of a setting for this? I have my Yahoo mail set up. Emails with text display fine, but email with images (mostly emails from companies like ebay, etc) just come up blank. I don't see any settings or option to display images for the app.
Thnx.

Yup...if you want the images to display you need to go under the Receive Settings in the email app and choose a larger limit, otherwise, the images will not be displayed right away.
Hmmm... Don't have the show HTML button. I remember that from my Evo 3D, but don't have it on the Rezound. I have already bumped the download limit to 100kb and was having the issue. Bumping it up to 1mb now.
So I actually do have the show HTML button in some emails, like from livingsocial, but not others...

Hey all,
Can't believe I am actually interested in disabling GMail.
But the standard "Mail" app seems to have a nicer UI than the Gmail app. Especially since it has dedicated Gmail settings.
But how do I disable the gmail app (can't be uninstalled...yet)? Obviously without root, and not sure it's worth the trouble to temp root.
It's just that every email received at Gmail gives me two separate notifications...
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using Tapatalk
The best I can think of (without rooting) is turning off notifications for Gmail so you don't get harassed by two alerts.

FWIW, the dedicated Gmail settings in the Sense mail app are POP3 settings. In other words, every email will show up on your phone as unread, even if you have read it on another device or the web interface.

Thanks for this. I did disable notifications for the Gmail app, which worked like a charm.
As to the pop3 mail, I did not get an inbox full of unread mail when I set it up.
Perhaps the Sense mail has been improved? I am familiar with what you are describing, but that is not the behavior I am seeing.

This issue happened for me on my Rezound, so we are talking about the same Sense version. When I set it up, I didn't get an inbox full of unread messages either, but every message I got from then on wouldn't get marked in Sense mail as unread unless I viewed it from within that app. So, for example, I could get a new gmail message in the gmail app/sense mail, and view it in the gmail app/web interface, but even after refreshing the sense mail it still shows up as unread. Eventually I had to remove the gmail account in sense mail and set it up manually as an IMAP.
An HTC rep responded to an email of mine and basically told me that manual IMAP was the only way to get around the issue. But kudos to you if everything is working!
So folx, tell me which one do you prefer and why?
Im currently using Gmail app, but i wanted to ask for your oppinion.. Im in dillema between gmail app and stock email app for @gmail.com mails..

In stock email you can attach all types of files. Which is impossible in gmail app that offer to attach only a video or a picture.

You've gotta be kidding me right?
Gmail 4.2.1 is the very definition of smoothness.
Stock email app is choppy as hell, even in this monster of fast and smooth phone.
Don't get me wrong, with the new MA5 update, stock email is much smoother than before, but still pales in comparison to Gmail

Two differences that I know of:
1. The gmail app syncs chats but the stock email app doesn't.
2. The email notification generated by gmail when a user receives a ping when he or she is offline is synced by the gmail app but not by the stock app.

Hi
How to remove or disable gmail app? i dont want to use it
I came from iPhone and i've noticed problems in both apps.
- Gmail: No unified inbox, conversation view can be better (like iOS stock Mail app)
- Mail: No conversation view at all (and it's definitely not a good thing) and no push mail from gmail
In my daily usage i use gmail for the push service and the conversation view. But i think that iOS mail app and Gmail for iOS are better.
I've used all the other mail clients for Android and every app has some problem.

I hate the black background on Stock Email, if you driving in car you will have problems to read, that is better on white background wit black fonts like on gmail app! So i would like only getting white background on stock mail app! Everything elese works (but surely, on my HTC ONE X) it`s much smoother! I´m on Omega 11 in moment!

I hate conversation view and that's why I disabled it in Gmail settings, maybe that's why I don't see conversation view in Gmail app as well. How do you enable conversation view in Gmail app?
And the stock email app has an option of conversation view. You can see it by pressing menu. However I don't know what it does as I haven't used it yet.
And the email client in iOS is way better than any Android client I've ever used.

You could use 'negative colours' under Accessibility. It'll make the background white. Just make a shortcut of Accessibility option which is accessible via Post key.
Also you could use the lighter email text mod of Xposed, not bad.
