Has Google killed Exchange on Android phones as well? - AT&T LG Optimus G

Trying to set up gmail using Exchange and it keeps saying server unavailable. I was thinking Google killed exchange for all its competition...I didn't realize they killed it for Android based phones as well, or am I missing something?

They REALLY want you to use the Gmail app, which sucks because I know that I love a unified inbox.

Yea I love the stock email...especially in black. What do I need to purchase from Google in order to be able to use Google with exchange??

I use exchange with no issues. Check your settings and then check you corp policy. My company only allows so many connections via mobile devices. I used up all mine while flashing my HTC Vivid and the LGOG. The best way to set up exchange is to do manual setup from settings/accounts.

He doesn't mean corporate Exchange, he means that you can no longer add your Google account via their exchange connector, m.google.com. They did away with this recently to make you use IMAP andCalDAV/CardDAV.

HELP, phone stolen, changed gmail password, now cant track

Is there any way to find the location of my phone? It was stolen and I just a dumb ass changed my gmail password right away so the person who stole it couldnt access my email.
Is there any way to track it now since google cant be synced with it??
I didnt install any tracking apps on my phone.......I am running 5.0 Inject Th3ry
Thanks guys I appreciate your help!
did you register for a sense account?
sense online does not work with the thunderbolt yet...
I thought lookout had a way to push the app to your phone to track it?
If you signed up for Verizon's TEC insurance via Asurion, I believe you get a phone finder service with that. Don't know how accurate it is though. www.phoneclaim.com Best of luck!

If all else fails. Call verizon, tell them it's lost. Call back every day to see if they placed any phone calls. If they did, call the numbers they called. Verizon can provide you with that info. Disadvantage of that, is they can use your phone to buy things or make expensive calls. But if you keep an eye on verizon's history, you should be able to control that if it gets out of hand.
One time my phone was stolen and I was able to find the guy that stole it because his dad was one of his recent calls. Turns out papa was very disappointed haha! I got my phone back and he got a beating.
Go to the android market on you pc and install Lookout Plan B on you lost phone. It will track it.

Umm, yes it does. If your running a ROM with it and your signed into HTC Sense. There is an option under the Location settings called Phone finder.
If it is checked you can go to www.htcsense.com, sign in and it will track your phone. I just tried before posting this to make sure.
That sucks but you hopefully had phone finder on

You can't change a Gmail password with a phone. You have to know the old password to change and it has to be done online. They probably factory reset the phone so u won't be able to track it anyway

I think the OP stated he changed the password himself which would then make Plan B no good since it cannot access the market

Why don't you change your Google Account password back to what it was previously, then install Plan B from the market website. It will push to your phone so long as it's still trying to sync.

that's weird because when I try to sign up, the thunderbolt is not a choice when choosing your device.

Because stock, it isn't. But, for example, BAMF 3.0 rc4.9 uses it. And it works with the site.

There's a hacked .apk here that will work on stock ROMs (might have to be rooted). You sign up with your device set as a Desire HD. I'm running it on my stock OTA MR2 rooted ROM.

[Q] EVO 3D and Active Exchange

Today I tried to set up Active Exchange to use with my work email. While finalizing setup I get a pop-up stating "“Policy setting incompatible: Require Device Encryption”.
After some searching online, it seems the EVO 3D does not have the proper encryption to use with my company's policy. iPhones do.
Anyone have a work around or solution that has worked for them?
At my last company, this was not a requirement so setting up with Active Exchange was no problem.
What company?

Not going to put my company's name online.
I ended up downloading Touchdown and it worked fine with their Active Exchange policy. I will use that until we get an update.
I had this problem with my company and all I had to do was contact my IT department and have them authorize my device. Don't know if this is your case, but have contacted your It department yet?

Yes I contacted them and they said my phone did not have the proper encryption to use with their system.

[Q] Track N Remote Control your G-Note online - Free Service by Samsung

Recently found this free service from Samsung. Allows you to remotely find your
G-Note, lock it, erase it etc.
Been trying to make this work for a few days. It is working on the International Note.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1410757
http://v2.samsungdive.com/help/guideRemoteControls.do
Can register the phone with Samsung. Can link to the account on the phone. The web menus don't seem to be enabled. The international setting screens have some choices we don't.
Samsung US support had no clue. Anyone know anything about this?
how are you able to link the account to the phone? i'm having trouble finding the samsung account on my phone, when i go and try to add an account..
I tried this last week and do not believe it works for AT&T phones.

Same story with AT&T version of GS2, AT&T removed the necessary software on the phone so it is not possible to let AT&T version to communicate with Samsung's service.

Suspended and Now.................

Hi All,
After being suspended last month from being a Developer with Google Play................
I want to know...................How will Google know it's me when I become an app developer with DIFFERENT email address, DIFFERENT bank account and credit card info, and DIFFERENT apps??
My internet provider says Google has NO WAY to detect my IP address. Is that true?
Thank you all!
Willow
Seriously this makes me wonder about why you were suspended in the first place...
Well, everyone can hide behind a proxy so theory of Google tracing via IP is useless. Also, some ISPs do provide dynamic IP lol.
Do no evil ok? I don't want to judge but yeah...

I'm with the above...reluctant to answer without knowing why you were suspended. I don't need to know your business but if you got suspended from Google Play......

[Q] Help Disabling Exchange Administrator Policy

I have my work Exchange email synced to my phone through the Gmail app. However, my company forces me to activate an Exchange administrator policy that blocks features of my phone and forces an PIN code on my lockscreen. Is there any way to disable this while still getting my work emails to my phone? Currently running the OctOS-L ROM with Android 5.1.1. Thanks.
Yes. Use Enhanced Email. It is no longer being supported, but it still has that option.

Mailwise is another option (and it's still beings supported / updated). I've been using it for the past year and it's absolutely fantastic.
I use Touchdown.
It's a paid app but it provides a container for all Exchange email.
Touchdown was one I considered, but I went with Enhanced Email. It was cheaper, if u remember right. I will have to take a look at Mailwise too, now I know about it.
