I have an Asus Transformer running ICS and a Samsung Galaxy SIII with (one of) the latest leaks (DLI5).
On both devices I have installed the same Exchange account which connects to my Zarafa server.
On both devices my mail is working and also Agenda.
But on my Asus I can see all folders that are configured inside my INBOX, but on my Samsung I can only see the standard ones (inbox, concepts, outbox & sent items).
Is this something that will change or something I can change with a mod?
I'm also on dli5 and the standard app is working fine for me.
Go into your mail, press inbox on top - in the drop down menu - you go down to the last item called all folders

I have about 20 folders that are shown then on my Asus, but they don't appear when I follow the procedure you wrote and I already knew.
How many custom folders are shown on your Samsung?
I can of course install a third party application like Moxier, but there has to be a way to get my Samsung to do what it should.
I wish I knew which part exactly is to blame for this behavior.
BTW Asus has also a total different look and feel for its mail application, but this might be because it's a tablet.
I have 10 or so folders in my outlook account and they are all present on my Samsung
- my work uses a MS exchange server

Thanks for the info.
This has been bothering me for a long time. Because I'm not using a genuine exchange server, but this Linux replacement I didn't post anything before.
Because it's working as it should on my Asus I did make this post.
I'm now running the latest Samsung leak, which is a 4.2.1 android version. It's fixed now....
Finally I can see all the subfolders of my inbox. If I have an opportunity to test an old build I will check if it's not my Zarafa (or rather Zpush) that had a fix for this...
Anyhow.... it's working finally!!
Cheers

The Galaxy Tab email client looks very nice. It takes advantage of the landscape orientation of a tablet with a split folder/message view. I know that Kaiten and Touchdown have similar views, but the former doesn't support Exchange 2010 very well and I don't really like the UI on the latter.
It looks like folks have managed to get the Galaxy Tab email app going on several different Android tablets, e.g.:

Has anyone tried/managed to get it going on the NOOKcolor yet?
yes, i've been using it on my Fascinate before i got my nook and have been using it for my nook since i got it and flashed cm7.
I use it so i don't have to put a pin or password everytime i want to check my work email. (more like delete the work spam email)
Can't really comment on the UI or anything compared to other mail clients as I've never used any other, but to me it's basically the stock email app that my phone has without the added security features.
use kaiten imo, its better. there was a thread that could get the galaxy tab on the nook, i tried it, and it wasnt all that great
I will try kaiten asap. I confirm that the galaxy tab email client is not so good on nook. I kept it five minutes..

My understanding was that Kaiten and K9 didn't work well with Exchange 2010. Is that not the case? If it does, can you provide a pointer to something describing the level of support?
One of the reasons why I go Android over other OSs is due to Seven's support for an enterprise email app that works with a desktop redirector that works with Outlook. It works really well, and what it does is enable me not to need a BlackBerry for work. I can access personal and work email/calendars/etc., on one device w/o having to deal with corporate IT.
Unfortunately, the GS II comes with Media Hub, which as it turns out, was built by Seven. And it appears to have the same package ID as the email app that I use to access my work email & calendar! As a result, when I try to install the Seven app, it asks me if I want to upgrade the Media Hub. That's just not going to work. So, now I'm w/o one of the most important features of my smartphone.
Unfortunately, I cannot unload Media Hub. Any other ideas? Any other alternatives to Seven for corp. email w/desktop redirector?
Any info appreciated.
Jon
PS - I think that if I really wanted to, I could root the phone and uninstall the media hub. I'd just rather not have to do that if I don't have to.
I'm a complete noob at any apk stuff but could you pull the download of seven and recompile it yourself so it doesn't have the same id?
Just peeing in the wind...

I'm not saying you should do this but if you want, if you root your phone you could remove media hub
In fact it is one of the many apps I deleted in order to debloat my phone.

I'm using multiple android devices, all of them under one phone number (only one plan that includes five separate sim cards). All of the services are available under any individual device, BUT! Text messages (SMS) ONLY arrive at the devices that holds the "primary" or "master" sim card.
What I'd like to have, is the ability to somehow send any arriving messages from the primary device via something (email? im?) that doesn't require them to be in close vicinity (so no wlan/bluetooth). So that it wouldn't matter which device I hold, I'd always receive any incoming text messages and they would be available on all devices. Best would be, if also SENT messages would sync between devices.
Also of note is that the sync should be (almost) instantaneous (as fast as can be achieved via push-gmail or instant messaging). So no scheduled syncs or anything that requires an interval.
Each one of the devices are capable of sending/receiving sms on their own, so no technical barriers exist on that front.
By syncing, I mean that the messages would be available at each device's own "messaging system", NOT just backed up in email or something. (so SMS2Mail of backupsms -style apps are out of the question.)
The devices are running Android 2.2, 2.3, 3.1 and come next year, android 4.0.
I'm going to use:
* Samsung Galaxy Note
* Samsung Galaxy Tab
* Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9
* Samsung Galaxy Gio
* Motorola Defy
I've looked into TotalSMS Control, DeskSMS, Phone Control and various other apps, but they all lack some part of what I need. (DeskSMS looked the most promising, but apparently doesn't work on Honeycomb, at least market doesn't show DeskSMS for my Tab 8.9).
If this exists, please tell me. If it doesn't, I'm willing to pay some.
Note: monthly/yearly fees are not out of the question. The services need not be free, just working
Did you ever find an app that worked for you? I'm in a similar situation and would be interested to hear what you settled on.
No, unfortunately I didn't. I'm currently using Phone Control. I needed to change my primary device from Tab 8.9 to Note to get PC to work (since it required telephony). It is hands down the fastest of what I have tested. Unfortunately it only sends the arriving sms as email to the other devices, there is no way to actually 'sync' anything between the devices.

Hello AnttiV,
I have already posted my setup (somewhat applicable to your case) in this Thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1368228).
To make best use of the app that I use in my setup (mysms) I would slightly modify it. You can install mysms on you main device (which has the SIM card that is marked as primary). Then you can access and write messages from all other smartphones via the mysms mirror app (search for 'mysms mirror' in the play store).
I used the free Web app to text from my iPad until I decided to purchase the app from the App store.
Hope this helps you.
@eileenfj0713:
that's not even remotely usable in this scenario? That's only SMS transfer, not a simultaneous receiving.
However, I've now been using MySMS for about year, and that seems to be the best solution (it's even cross platform! Works from iOS also) available. I heartily recommend MySMS to anyone looking for a solution to this kind of a problem.
So then:
New to the Prime, like it so far, not in love with it, but it's pretty good.
2 qns please:
a) I have a desire HD and like the apps you can put on the screen under ICS, but don't know how to do it on this one, e.g. a twitter feed etc. Is it possible to do? It is a right click and hold down on my phone!
b) I have dropbox and was hoping there was some way of syncing files from my computer to a part of my SD card - just work files, so I can leave my work laptop and move onto this. Is there a sensible solution to this?
Am hoping both of these are solvable, please put me out of my misery!
Thanks
A) Ice Cream Sandwich changed the way you add widgets to your homescreens. Instead of long-pressing on the home screen, they're in their own section in the app list. Bring up the app list and you'll see a section for widgets at the top that you can scroll through.
Are you asking if dropbox works? Yes it does.
B) put your files in dropbox.... done works perfect
if you favorite something on your TFP's dropbox app, it has it always downloaded. Not sure how often or if at all it downloads the latest version, but that's waht the features says it does. Also, if you won't have internet, tap an item once to download it to your dropbox cache and after that it'll be saved on your prime so you wont need internet to access those specific files from your device.
ps i'm rocking the same TFP/DHD combo and i'm loving it

I have dropbox working (the app), but am wondering if there's a "deeper" setting more akin to the PC where I can sync and monitor folders rather than be able to passively log in and select which file I want to download/view?
I work in education and as such have about 5 gig of work files I could do with on my computer, mainly lesson plans, resources etc. The original idea is that I sync my (non asus transformer) laptop with my computer at home so any files I have automatically are the latest version; e.g. a lesson plan I update during every lesson, so when I am home I can carry on working on it, as it has downloaded the latest version automatically.
Then in my head I would extend this to include my transformer prime, where it stores the latest version of a lot of files and updates with dropbox so I can use my prime as my primary laptop for work use...
I hope that clarifies it a little?
and thanks to everyone who has taken the time to post - it's very kind of you.

As nhshah said, if you favorite something, it will stay synced to the most recent updated version. The only thing I can not find an answer for is if it automatically updates the file to your computer also.
I get what you are looking for, basically she wants dropbox to run as if her TFP was a desktop/laptop computer where it automatically syncs as the file is updated. Unfortunately, dropbox has limited the due to saving data and battery.
600 MB additional free storage
Hi all
Just found a smart way to increase your Dropbox account with 600 MB:
1 Sign into your existing Dropbox account (or create a new account)
2 Goto https://www.dropbox.com/free
3 Follow instructions ... and voila 600 MB additional free storage
Old news.. you can pretty much do this stuff from within Dropbox web interface to increase storage space. It not new offers.
Also as much as I love DB some of those items are pretty invasive as you give them certain control if your account to post stuff as they want on your behalf... pass
Hi, I was wondering if the two devices share any continuity between them. Such as, messages for example. Can I receive and send text messages with the tab s3 (number from my phone obviously) also can I pick up on web pages etc. Where I left off? I'm thinking whether the tab or a surface pro4 is better for me, the battery life on the surface pro 4 is sub-standard.
Thanks!
I have both the Tab S3 and a Surface Pro 3, and they are night and day different, mainly in the type of apps/applications that you run on them, so that should be your deciding factor. If I'm going to pick up a a tablet and sit down and do serious work, then it's the Surface. But if I'm looking for something that's in an "instant on" always ready mode, then it's the Tab S3. If you use Firefox, you can synchronize bookmarks and tabs across devices if you sign in the with the same account, but personally I do not do that.

The text messages is what I would find more useful. Similar to how you can answer messages on an iPad/iPhone. I don't do serious work on these devices really. I don like the surface but wouldn't mind having the same eco system.
Thank you!
imessage on iOS is actually server based. Samsung has something called SideSync where you can link yor tablet or your PC to your phone for txts and other apps but its more of a remote control solution so it chews up battery and you cant leave it on all the time.
I would say between the two, the S3 is much better for entertainment purposes. Lighter weight, cheaper, better (and cheaper) drawing apps, longer batter life.
Sent from my SM-N920V using Tapatalk
Check if your carrier has an app option for texting. At&t does.
There used to be a chrome 2 phone extension...not sure what happened with it. Still,I believe you can share a link with yourself.
I have both the Tab S3 and a Galaxy S8+. There is a similar function like Apple's continuity but you have to use an app for that. Just download and install SideSync for both devices (You can also download and install it on Mac and Windows). Then both devices have to be connected to the same wifi. So if you are just at home, simply fire up SideSync on both devices. All your text messages will com to your Tab S3. You will get notified of calls to but can only answer through the S8 and not the Tab.
The downside to this is you have to manually start the app on both devices. Not a true continuity like iPhones and iPads.
For browsing, continuity already exists on Samsung's stock internet browser. Just make sure you are signed in to your Samsung account on both devices. Chrome browser also does continuity between devices. Also, there is a Chrome extension that will sync Chrome bookmarks to the Samsung internet browser.
Original Samsung keyboard case, Folio case and S Pen are on sale now on Best Buy. Its a good time to buy if your looking to get the Tab S3. But still being an Android device, there is no substitute for a full computer like the Surface Pro 4 that you are eyeing. I have a Samsung TabPro S 2-in-1 computer (similar to a Surface Pro) and I dont see my Tab 3 replacing it.
This is exactly what Samsung Flow is for, they even highlight it as a feature on the Tab S3 webpage:
I just installed Samsung Flow on my Note 5 and Tab S3 and I have to say... it's dumb. All it allows you to do is keep your phone unlocked, and read your notifications on your tab. You can enable the hotspot on your phone from your tab, and send content (images) back and forth (which I already do with cloud storage). Nothing about txt message. Uninstalling.

I have used Sidesync many times between my PC and my phone and it's great for that. For kicks, yesterday I installed it on my Tab S3 and tried to connect to my Note 5. It would see the phone but every time say "error connecting" so I never got it to work.
The important difference between Sidesync and what crapple has with imessage is that Sidesync is more of a remote control application like Team viewer, with the added bonus of getting the notifications on both devices. With imessage, there is actually a txt message app on both devices that effective work independently of each other since its server based.
For people in the US that use Verizon, we can install VerizonMessaging which will let you send and receive txt & calls from the S3. However, any outgoing txt you write on the tablet do not find their way back to your phone. So if have a conversation with someone on your s3, and then go back to your phone, you only will see the incoming tats from that person.

Try mySMS. It syncs across your devices so that you can create and send sms from your tablet or Pc. Your phone only needs internet connection.

Try Pulse for SMS. It works on my essential and my tab S3. It is not free if you want sync and send SMS or MMS but it works very well. It even works on PC.
