Strange going on's - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello
I am running Android 4.3 and I have a issue when I delete Event Emails.
When i accept an Event Email request, it is added to the S Planner !AS NORMAL!
However, when I delete the Event Email from the built in Email Manager (Hotmail Email account) it also removes the event from S Planner.
Surely I should be able to delete an email after accepting the event request, without S Planner deleting the Event from my Calendar.
Any help would be GREAT
Many Thanks
Wayne Johnson

Move it to another folder instead of deleting it. Maybe make a new folder called events.

That does seem to be the only way around the issue. But Surely there is another way around this, I hate keeping emails. I just want to delete them after accepting the event

Have you tried using the google calander instead of s planner?, maybe another planner app?

I have tried other Email apps, as that seems to be the cause of the issues. If i use Chrome to delete the email (web-based), the event stays in S Planner, so seems to be an issue with the built in Email Manager.

Sounds like it, you could just delete it after the even is over...

That is another way of doing it. But the time that an event email is sent and the actual time of the event can be years/months apart, so sorting through the emails (which will be in order sent rather than by event date) will be a complete NIGHTMARE...

Yeah thats tuff when they are so far out. Good luck man

GS2 not syncing with Google Calendar

I set up 5 months worth of events and it just wont sync to mmy phone. I've tried manually syncing as well. I also tried 3 third party calendar apps which wont sync either.

More details might help. What rom are you running, have you done anything special to it, what steps you've taken to try and fix it, is this your first android phone?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777 using XDA App
Stock rom, just rooted. Ive tried syncing manually, clearing the calendar data, trying to fix it via google calendar website, tried a few calendar applications. Not sure what to do now.
Its my second phone, Inspire was my first
Does everything else sync?
From your response it sounds like you have looked this up already. So with that in mind maybe it's more of a small detail.
Are the calender events you're saving being saved to your Google calender or your local calender?

Well I dont really sync anything honestly. This is pretty much the first time I've tried to sync with this phone. The event is being saved onto my Google Calender.
Edit:
When I go into Settings>Accounts and Sync>My Gmail, it only shows Contacts, Gmail, and Picasa. No calendar here.
Wow. That's a first for me. How did you root your phone?

So when you access your calendar none of the events show up?
And you have tried opening the menu once you access the calendar going to settings->Calendar Sync-> selecting gmail syncing that way?
I know that with my calendar, contacts, etc. it took a long time before the information updated. I would say about 10-15 minutes and I did not create 5 months events more like major holidays and 250 or so facebook related events.
I would suggest giving it more time or rebooting the phone and trying the whole thing all over again.

that was for the Nexus 1 but maybe it'll work for you. Add a 2nd gmail account and see if that calendar sync option reappears.

Ok I added my 2nd gmail account, I get "Sync Contacts, Sync Gmail" only
If it were my phone I'd flash stock to see if that fixes it. Seems like the software is messed up. I can't think of any reason Calender wouldn't show up under sync.

Well I didnt flash any ROM, i just rooted so I can get a few rooted apps. Im new to this, but that means im still on the stock ROM right?
Correct, you're still on stock then. I really like entropy512's method, as it flashes stock (can help fix most system problems if you're running a stock rom) and it's rooted.
I'm not promising you wont lose what apps you've installed, but I've had a few times I've done it now and all my apps stayed installed. Pretty quick process all in all.

[Q] For those of you with Gmail accounts...

Will you be using the gmail app or the stock email app?
The stock app has that cool 2 paned viewing thing, (inbox on one side, emails on the other) but the gmail app was made for gmail. I was just wondering what you guys prefer.

I myself don't like using multiple apps to access all my mail accounts. If I can get away with adding all my accounts to a single mail client then that's the route I'm taking regardless of the various features and benefits the individual apps themselves might have. I like to keep things simple.
Gmail app.
Very good label support
I use both!

I'm with you. I like everything in a nice, neat package.
I use the GMAIL App, to keep things simple and not all over the place.
I have always used the Gmail app. I have all my emails come into one place instead of trying to look through different apps for email. Centralized and consistent. Plus I love the labeling feature.
Gmail app is trash. I don't understand how come doesn't offer zooming and icon or widget notification. Stock does. I guess is another dumb apple patent conflict crap.

Is there a way to only get notified of mail in your priority inbox. The Gmail app system it supports this, but it doesn't. There are almost no settings at all! You used to be able to set a custom notification tone, too...:banghead:

ICS and stock email app

Hello forum-mates:
I use the stock ICS email app which has exchange server and it syncs and emails are in but when I click on email there is no body for the email and all you see is the subject and sender with a blank white screen below.
I have flashed the same ROM three times with issue.
EDIT: also replaced the EMAIL.apk and Exchange.apk with stock one and no change.
Any cure?
Working fine for me, have setup 2 Exchange Accounts and 3 IMAP Accounts and all are working 100%, quite chuffed with it actually as the stock email client for GB was a pile of useless crap, the one on ICS is great.
Working well here. Two echange accounts working.
In fact it's too good, as it's picking up the server requesting permissions for wiping the phone etc.. I think that's Exchange 2010+.
Just let them try
Thanks guys,
On Gingerbread I had setup Google apps email with no problem on email app (not gmail app) and it was working flawlessly, but now it doesn't as I see for a second a flicker of something to be there but disappear.
I did set it up on gmail account, but I was wishing for regular email app.
Exactly same problem here. The strange part is that it happens with only one of my two google accounts. Have tried deleting data, cache and mail accounts but no luck.
Help please!

Mine is perfectly OK... if it is OK with us and not with yours, then one of us is either lucky or doing something wrong... try to reconfigure again...
Just only one "unlucky" thing, is there any widget for the stock email?
Sent from my LT26i using Tapatalk 2
I have tried to put account 10 time. I have re-flashed the whole ROM 3 times. I have replaced the email and exchange app files with stock android and no luck. There should be something wrong.
Maybe this problem is only when you try to add the google apps account to regular email app?
My Google email account is also sync with stock email app, and together with my corporate email and two yahoo email accounts, they are working normally...
Not sure if adding another account of gmail would bring that problem of yours...

I son't want to steal this thread, but this i s very interesting. Since I use Android ()from 1.5 times till now) I've always used gmail app for well gmail But it has it's issues, like inability to send notification to third party aps and so on.
Can you please tell me how is your experience with using gmail in mail app? Did you try gmail app?
If someone here is using mail app with gmail account I'd also like to hear your opinions on this. Let's face it, Sony's mail app with two pane view and other improvements seems way better than gmail even from ics
Thank you in advance

NO,
and I gave up waiting for CM9 release whenever, hopefully soon and maybe that fixes the issue.
For time being, I have added all my Google apps account to Gmail account which works OK, actually they work just right.
Are you adding Google Apps too?
Thanks for the answer, hope I can do that soon cause I got a locked bootloader.
Sent from my LT26i using xda premium
I don't think you are required to have unlocked bootloader to achieve this.
I meant the CM9 part not the gmail one. I got my accounts on gmail app too but I do like that the core mail shows notifications in the lockscreen.

I don't like it either but for time being is OK, Now with seeing Jelly Beans and more exciting feature, that is what I want I am about to buy a Nexus Galaxy and take Sony hardware out and put that phone's chip in there
Actually, I'm using my gmail account for purchasing of Apps only... and I always received notification (like yesterday, when I purchased "MyBackUp Pro")... this morning, I sent an email to my gmail account using my corporate and yahoo acounts (through Xperia S stock email)... just received and replied... and all of them are working normally...

get the semcemail.apk from xperia T files,
1. use root explorer or rom toolbox or any file manager with root access, delete the original semcemail.apk or rename it to semcemail.apk.bak (location /system/app)
2. copy and paste the xperia t semcemail.apk to /system/app.
3. change permission to rw-r--r--.
4. go to settings then look for email app then clear data.
5. open your email app then log again your data,
6. now you can choose the widget on homescreen.
look @ development section or general section, there's a thread for the xperia T files.
here:

Just wanted to finally answer my own question. This is what I did and it worked.
Delete data on email app.
In Titanium backup, remove Email app and Exchange app
Restart
Go to this thread and download two files HERE
Change name (get rid of Google)
Move files to Memory
Move files to System folder
Change permission to RW-R-R
Move files to System/apps
Restart
and email app should fully function.

deleted emails keep coming back.

AT&T Galaxy Note.
Deleted emails from one of my outlook.com accounts keep coming back.
I've read them, deleted them from phone and desktop but they keep coming back--not new ones either, the same 20 or so emails.
I have the same email on other devices but only on the note do they keep coming back.
Any suggestions?
thnx
Is there a setting for deleting the email off the server when you delete it from the phone?
The Outlook App uses POP and not IMAP. They do not get deleted from the server unless you are using IMAP. So when you delete them it is only locally and they download again when the device syncs. You will have to delete them on the server to stop them from appearing when the app sync's.

If that were so then Id have the same problem on all 3 devices as all 3 have that email account. only on the Note do they keep coming back after I delete them.
I use profimail and IMAP. There is an option to delete email on server when deleted on phone. It works just fine. This is not dependant on your phone/ROM.
The reason for your problems is not your Note.

Not quite. The issue comes in when it re-syncs. It grabs all of the mail and since it doesn't delete from the server cause it is POP and not IMAP, they download again. The other devices are not grabbing all mail, the note is. Change or settings to only get new mail and not all mail.
You will see that everything I have said about POP and iMAP are true when you read about how they operate via Google. The device is setup different.

You just said you use IMAP and delete the email from the server. You do not have the same issue cause you are not using the same setup. Yes it is the phone. Again POP does not delete email from the server and if the app is set to sync all mail from a certain time frame it will download the mail again.
Since you are using IMAP and deleting from the server you do not have this issue. Use the Outlook App which is POP, set it to sync all mail for the past 30 days and see if the results will be the same. Bet you will see deleted emails comes back.
So yes it is the device and the app used with how it is setup.

[Q] I need a *good* email application with working filters

Hey guys
I need help finding an app. First off, I will more than happily pay for one that does what I need.
I need:
Multiple email accounts
Being able to filter a specific distribution list to not notify me. I get other emails from that email that I need to be notified when they come in. I just need one distro list silenced
Different notifications for specific senders would be awesome
Please let me know if such an app exists.
Anyone?
