hi there!
i hope this is the right forum. i have installed cm9 on my samsung i9001 (galaxy s plus) so far so good, beta 2 is running smoothly.
sadly there is no standard email application included in that install, or correct me if i am wrong, at least i couldnt find any.
and whats even more sad is i cant download the gmail app from the market because of my location and something i believe is a name infringement or whatever...
so i am in need of a descent email app. i am currently running a gmail.apk for the v2.3.5. which is kinda buggy...
i think the best for me would be the email app that comes with the sgs+ on stock rom or an up to date gmail.apk would be nice too.
since email is kinda delicate i dont want to use any 3rd party app from the market or is there anything trustworthy?
please help me!
thanks in advance!
Try K9 mail. If an email app is not trustworthy there would be bad reviews.

I recently switched to CyanogenMod 7 R1. I had done a Titanium Backup of my apps before I switched, but didn't realise that it wouldn't back up stock apps. I really love the stock e-mail app which came with the phone, it handles g-mail better than the g-mail app or the Cyanogen e-mail app IMO. Is there a way for me to get the app on Cyanogen or no?
Thanks!

Last I heard its part of the Sense UI. You couldnt use it without having Sense installed and in that case you might as well run one of the Iced Glacier ROMs.
I thought the app was there, its just the widget that's gone.
I never used the widget, just the app. Any hope for this?

I was using K-9 as my e-mail app until yesterday I realized I could just forward all of my e-mail accounts to gmail. k-9 is an excellent program, but it wasn't useful any longer after I realized I could do this. Plus, gmail's interface is much smoother and easier to use.
But Sense did have a great email app, but since going to CM, I had no choice but to try alternatives. Gmail, however, is great so far.
What I like about k9 is that it handles attachments better.

I want to use the samsung email client since well... i like the widget on the desktop. I don't see an option to PUSH in settings. The quickest I see is to check every 5 minutes. Did I not set up the email correctly or what is it?
I had a push option earlier when I first entered my gmail account info but had to delete it because the push was being random. Having readded the account there isnt a push option any longer.
Help?
maybe this can help you..its for the s3 but should be the same..

Holy crap, talk about thread necromancy. OP is from May 2011.
Does anyone have any news on this subject?
Push email was available on the native S2 email client.
I vote for native apps first.
I tried the advice inside the android forum link, it works (gmail with exchange) but is sucks too much data in stand by.

This thread is in the galaxy s2 forum. Looks like you're a galaxy s3 user?
Yes, but since the op complained of a similar problem on the s2, i thought there is a connection.

I don't know what happen. Some photos I can view, but for 99% of them, I get "Cannot retrive the photo at this time. Please try again later?" I can open them fine on home computer so I do not think its an access issue?
Any thoughts or clue?
What app are you using for Facebook?

My Wife (LG Optimus) and Me (Photon) both have this issue, gotta be facebook at this point. They have had ****ty Android support from the start.
But-----------------> Google Plus FTW.
I reinstalled with no success. I thought it was me, then I reached out to some friends and this seems to be a common issue, no matter what phone you have. It just took me as odd one day it worked, next it did not and i did not download anything..........Oh well.
It's the app, not the phone

And I know why!!! Just looking, I had Version 1.8.1. After I deleted and went to reinstall, the version on the market is "Depends on Device!" So instead of investing some $$$$ in the masses, they are doing one off's as they get to it. Meaning they likely fix a bug for one device and break another!

I'm having a weird issue that I can't quite figure out the cause of. I have my Sprint S3 rooted and have flashed the Blazer ROM 1.6 on it. I haven't had any issues that I know of until now. I have my work email, which is run on a Microsoft Exchange Server, hooked up to my phone. I get notifications fine, emails, invites, etc. However, randomly, emails will not show up in their entirety. It will show 5 or 6 lines of the email and then nothing else. If I forward the email to another account, like my gmail account, the entire email is there.
Has anyone else seen this issue? I have tried searching and can't find anyone else with the issue. I thought at first it was my particular phone, but I returned it and got another S3 and the same thing happens.
Right now I have it back to stock, still rooted, and I'm not seeing the issue. That's what's making me think it might have to do with the Blazer ROM.
Hopefully someone else has come across this issue.
Should be in the Blazer thread not General......
You might try a full wipe and reflash. I have not heard reports of truncated messages.

OK. Sorry about that. I'll repost it there. And I have tried wiping and reflashing. And it's happened to me on both phones that I have had in the past week, which seems weird. I'll get this post moved. Thanks.

Man, it's so odd. I have the email size set to All. And it's not on every email. It's only every now and then. I'm going to try another email app and see if it still happens.

Well, I downloaded Maildroid and am extremely happy with it so far. So long as I don't have problems with it, I think this is going to be my email client of choice. Thanks for the suggestion! :good:

I'm glade you like it as I have been using it for quite sometime now. I like that you can back it up in TB and take it with you from rom to rom. Plus you don't have to lock down your phone, just lock the email application itself.

What exactly do you mean by not having to lock down your phone, just lock the email application itself? You mean securing it so no one can get into your email?

I really dislike the UI of the official Facebook app. Although I'm on a tablet, it doesn't have any features that take advantage of the resolution. Instead, it looks poorly stretched and cumbersome...
Do you have any suggestions for a Facebook alternative that can work properly on a tablet? I have already tried FastForFacebook, FriendCaster and Atrium, but I'm not convinced yet.

Not a great answer but I really like Facebook messenger. I only use Facebook to contact people.
Third party apps get screwed by facebook. Many posts won't be displayed. I finally gave up and just use Facebook in a Web browser like on a desktop.

definitely. When posts from My FIANCE are deliberately not served to third party apps, like friend caster, it Sucks.
Unfortunately Facebook basically forces you to use their crap excuse for an app if you don't want to go the browser route.
