Hi Guys, I have a few question regarding the Email Apps:
1. I heard that the default Mail app in Sense 5 is superior to the GMail App because its Smart Sync settings and I would be better off battery life wise using HTC Mail App instead of GMail for my Gmail account, is this true?
2. I am currently having trouble syncing my Outlook.com(used to be Hotmail) account to HTC Mail, if you have succeeded in doing so please let me know.

You can use the HTC mail app for gmail just type in your gmail and password
Make sure your server settings are right

im looking for a good hotmail app that i can set sync schedule, i only want it to sync a few times a day not constantly. a few of the apps i've tried doesnt show junkmail folder which i also use.

If you are using Hotmail and not Gmail on your google- powered phone you're doing it wrong.

just configure gmail (on the webpage) to retrieve hotmail and be done with it.

Geez guys he asked for a Hotmail solution not Gmail.
Microsoft Hotmail now supports Activesync/Exchange. All your contacts, calendar and email flows down.
Select Corporate email setup.
Username is your full email address.
Server is. m.hotmail.com
Domain blank.
Set update to whatever you want from Push to hours.
Btw, I am a huge advocate of Enhanced Email.

Thank you! Ive been looking for this info for a while! It works flawlessly and its just awesome! The email setup wouldnt post my messages as "read" but this does! Thanks!
My girlfriend just got a thunderbolt. Unrooted. It seems as if Facebook will not sync with her contacts. Trying to manually link them does nothing unless the contact name exactly matches the Facebook name. Just wondering if there is some secret handshake or whatever to get this to work properly?

Do you have both Facebook the app and HTC's Sense Facebook accounts under Settings > Accounts & Sync? I believe its the Facebook App that syncs contacts
Ya she has them both. I'm sort of at a loss, works perfectly on my incredible then do the exact same thing on her thunderbolt and it just wont link unless she edits her contact names to match Facebook profiles.

Hi,
Does the stock email app support push? I use gmail however prefare the samsung email app becuse of zooming and copy text support.
If no, is there a way to feature like push without having to check for regually for emails?
There isnt even a method to check once opening the app.
Any sort of will be gratefull.
Thanks
Sorry to make things clear. Does the samsung email app support push using a gmail account.

Yes... Well.. Indirectly.. With Gmail you can setup mail fowarding from any other email account. On your PC have a look in your Gmail account settings for fowarding.. Gmail will pull your standard pop3 email for you and then push it to your phone... Easy.. Just let gmail gather your email from various acounts...
Edit. Just read again .. You would prefer the samsung app... Not sure then...

Hello,
I just wondered if i can sync Facebook Birthdays on my phone as i can't find the settings...
I used to be able to do it on my HTC with calendar but can't seem to do it on this phone or a possible App from the market that will do this...
Kind Regards
Moto blur doesnt include this. I have tbolt as well. But i am sure there might b a calander app. I will take look

If you sync your Facebook to your Google acct you should get your birthdays listed when your Google calendar syncs to your phone.

Hi there,
I don't want to sound dumb but how do i sync Facebook to Google??
Kind Regards
Make the email acct associated with your Facebook acct your gmail acct. I had to do this when I had a fascinate in order to get my Facebook calendar to sync with my phone. In a nutshell, your phone calendar syncs with your gmail calendar automatically, so if you make your gmail your default Facebook email it should force the sync to your phone's calendar.

On your computer, on a desktop browser
Visit this page : https://www.facebook.com/events/list
on the top right next to "Today" there is a gear icon, click on it
this will bring a drop down menu and one of the selection will be export
SNS service stopped

Thank you very much for the helpful info.
Unfortunately I have a persisting problem whenever trying to add Facebook account to my calendar I receive:
"Unfortunately SNS service stopped" and cannot have Facebook integrated into my calendar.
Please advise if you can.
Hi there, my question is - how to check e-mail messages from another Gmail account, but not the main account that is logged in my device? Any app or somethig? I just want to check e-mails (and docs maybe) but I dont want to sync that acc with my phone.

Use any browser! Go to the website. Simple!
life!
You can add the other Gmail account in Account & Sync settings and then choose to sync only mail.
Or, like Lifehacker7 said, use a browser.
