Hi,
I'm using the native Email client in CM9 with Exchange and was wondering if there was any way to enable notification when an email arrives in a subfolder. From my searching, it looks like Google has disregarded this feature request. This is rather strange as the Gmail client allows notifications for subfolders.
I know that Touchdown and Enhanced Email support subfolder notifications but I would prefer to use the native client if possible.
Do the CM guys touch the Email APK at all or just bundle it 'as is' from ICS source? I guess I could dust off old skills and start hacking the source myself...
All in all, I'm very happy with CM9. The notification bit is just a tad annoying.
Cheers!

This has been a major gripe from me over the past year or so. Every other phone OS manufacturer has this feature built in except for Android. It's not like this is something that only a few people would use. I have rules like crazy for my work email and hate the fact that I have to run 2 different email setups to get everything to work right.
Stock app doesn't do sub-folder replications
Enhanced Email screws up big time on contact creation.
So I'm stuck setting up the stock app to just pull my contacts while using EE to pull subfolder emails notifications.

I have one folder in particular I need to monitor (autonomous alarm emails from network elements). I tried using the Email widget but there is an issue with that not updating. Bleh. I guess I'm kinda screwed unless Google releases an update or I write a patch.
Hmmm... searching Google I'm hearing noises of other firmware that have patched the Email client allowing notification for subfolders. I'll have to dig into this more later. 'Twould be cool if it was a trivial patch easily applied to current ICS/CM9 Email tree.

My GS2 running GB 2.36 doesn't support folders, but I have used EE and are currently using touchdown. The strange thing is my Acer tablet supports folders in both Honeycomb and ICS.
i noticed the other day that if you go into a subfolder using the stock app and press the menu button that you can set it up to sync. I receive so many email that I can't say for sure if the notification window notifies you of subfolder emails, but I know that if you look at all folders you'll see a gray number all the way to the right indicating how many unread emails are in that subfolder.

Yeah, I tried that. The folder will sync (I have local cache for folder) but I receive no notification of new emails when they arrive in folder. Grrrr!
I'm not sure why Google put subfolder notification in the Gmail app but not in the stock Email app. Very odd.

Ha! No solution but something more on the order of a workaround for my particular situation. I got rid of the subfolder and built rules in Exchange to discard messages of no import to me.
I have not checked Jelly Bean's Email client as yet. Hopefully it implements notification for child folders. If not then someone at Google needs to be flogged relentlessly.
How are you guys setting rules in the native app? Is it something that only works on Exchange? I'd love to find an app that will let me filter my IMAP account like regular apps like Thunderbird/Apple Mail do.

Sorry, I might not have been clear. I built the filter rules on the Microsoft Exchange server, not on my phone.
Who are you using for mail? Google provides a nice array of server based filtering options with Gmail. Also, the stock ICS Gmail client supports child folder (label) notification with the option of setting ringtones per folder. Pure greatness in my opinion.
I'm not sure why the stock Email/Exchange does not implement these features. Very strange...

As of the latest JB build the email client functions are exactly the same. I had a DROID Charge before my Nexus, and someone modified that native email client to allow notifications for sub folders. Is there anyway to customize the native client? Anyone want to give this a try?

The source code is available. Someone with the requisite Java skills would need to have the interest and spare time to rewrite some of the code.

It works great. I have a torrent of crap hitting my Gmail box but most of it gets filtered and tagged with a label. (FYI -- Google uses labels instead of actual folders in Gmail. For all intents and purposes they are equivalent)
For lists I actually nest lables. Parent label is 'Lists' and all the email lists I belong to are nested underneath. Filter rules automatically bypass the inbox and drop the email in the appropriate place.
See attached screenshot. In it I'm looking at 'Lists/ODK'.
I too have the same problem and have decided to use TouchDown.
I too am missing the nofitications from subfolders in the email app in Android, so I made a quick look at the source code of this app to see if it would be possible to add this feature myself.
The notification itself happens in the NotificationController.java class: https://android.googlesource.com/pl...com/android/email/NotificationController.java
I did until now manage it to get an event in this class when an email arrives in a subfolder by modifying the class EmailProvider.java: https://android.googlesource.com/pl...com/android/email/provider/EmailProvider.java
I've changed the getBaseNotificationUri method to also return an uri on MESSAGE event. The only problem now is that in NotificationController.java only the combined inbox is checked for new emails. Maybe I can change that so that every message is checked. Maybe I have some time this weekend to try this.
I've managed to build a version of the email app that shows notifications when an email arrives in a subfolder. But when clicking on the notification it just opens the inbox of the account. I have to adjust this part too. I hope I will find some time.
Hi, is this App Threema really secure messaging or it is just Fake!!
Description
Threema is a mobile messaging app that puts security first. With true end-to-end encryption, you can rest assured that only you and the intended recipient can read your messages.
Unlike other popular messaging apps (including those claiming to use encryption), even we as the server operator have absolutely no way to read your messages.
Features:
• End-to-end encryption of text messages, images, videos and GPS locations
• Contact synchronization (optional): find other Threema users automatically
• Send images and videos
• Share your location on a map
• Verify your contacts' public keys by scanning a QR code from their mobile phone, all within the app
Threema is Made in Switzerland, and all servers are hosted there as well for maximum privacy.
On their webpage they show how to check yourself whether the encryption works how they promise. And it does. It works absolutely great.
Threema is my favorite messenger - it's like WhatsApp but end-to-end encrypted and my best friends (>25) switched to Threema, too.
No fake.

I couldnt even install it while using art. Switched to dalvik and now its working flawlessly. Im running slimkat latest weekly 3.2 (aosp) + custom kernel (Gustavo_s) on my international samsung galaxy s2 (i9100).
I am using Motorola Droid 4, Motorola Photon Q and Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G with Cyanogenmod 11 Nightly. No custom kernel, just the one included in the CM-builds. No problems during install and working great
Bypass Exchange Policies
Bypass Exchange security policies for Microsoft Outlook and Gmail.
This Xposed module will attempt to bypass the security policies that e-mail applications might want to enforce when you add new Exchange accounts. Currently only Microsoft Outlook and Gmail for devices running Lollipop and above are supported. Some applications - like Gmail - apply obfuscation (with a tool like ProGuard) to prevent tampering with the code. It's possible that this module stops working for future Gmail updates if classes and/or class members receive new random names compared to the previous version. Feel free to submit pull requests fixing bugs or version incompatibilities or adding support for new applications.
Download
Please refer to the GitHub releases page to download the Xposed module until the module is not made available in the Xposed Repository.
Changelog
Please refer to the CHANGELOG file for the full changelog details.

After filling in the Exchange connection details, I was brought to the following screens:
Remote security administration

Your account is set up and email is on its way!
Security update required
So, I'd say the module isn't working for me.

As I suspected, since Gmail is obfuscated with ProGuard, new versions generate new random names for class names/members and the Xposed hooks fail because it can't find the proper methods.
I'm afraid it won't be possible to have an Xposed module that works consistently for Gmail. It would need to be updated every time a new version is released and that's not feasible for me, sorry.
I've made the code open-source for lots of reasons and one of those is so that people can submit pull requests to fix problems like this. I currently don't have the time to look into this, maybe someone else might take a look. In the mean time here's what you can try if you want:
Remove your Exchange accounts.
Downgrade to 6.5-1.123769152.release.
Enable the module (don't forget to reboot).
Configure your Exchange account.
Upgrade to latest version available.

Ok, I just took a quick look to the latest Gmail version, compared both applications decompiled source and only found a single difference of relevance.
That difference was in the dialog popup that appears when setting up an account with Exchange policies. If that is really the only difference, when you get that dialog, just press "OK" to "accept" the dialog and continue with the account process creation. After this step, can you finish the setup configuration without being asked to setup a device administrator or it still doesn't work?

Are you using Gmail or Outlook?
Make sure you have the latest version installed for the app you use (check http://www.apkmirror.com and download new version if necessary).
For this module to work, you'll need to remove your Exchange account from the e-mail client (check the settings, accounts and device admins and make sure everything related to that account is removed) and then re-add it with the module activated. Don't forget to reboot your phone after enabling the module in Xposed Installer.
If this didn't help, please be more specific. Detail exactly what you are trying to do, post screenshots or record a short video demonstrating the issue.

Hi, Nuzgulled, v1.0.1 running with Outlook Version: 2.1.33 worked. Thanks for the great work!
Just want to check if you will extend the support to Email app, I'm using Email version 12.0.A.0.9, which should be AOSP compatible.
Thanks in advance for any feedback.

It doesn't work, I can't open any of the databases (it just says that any file I select there "isn't a databse").
Lately I have been wondering why Android still does not have native support for CalDAV & CardDAV, when both have been the de-facto open standard for contacts and calendar sync for years. Is there no native support because Google wants it to make it more difficult to use alternatives to their services? (In my case: NextCloud/ownCloud, which I can add right away even to an old Iphone, but still do not work with android out of the box without something like DAVDroid) Or are there plans to integrate it into future versions?
What's the problem with installing an app? Android has a native API for contacts and calendars, so I guess they can't be accused of making it "difficult". They probably just don't want to make it "too easy".
One could also ask why 99,9% of app developers don't support APK distribution but require users to use GApps & Play Store …

Which is not answering my question whether it is planned to have native support for CalDAV/CardDAV.
CardDAV / CalDAV are open standards for data exchange just like IMAP, NTP, SMTP and so on. It would be only natural for android to support them
Hope this is the good place.
Hi there,
This is a question from a newbie.
So far I used the app Contacts to send a message text to the addressee. Contacts app opened Signal app (set at default) and after writing, Signal send via Signal network if the addressee has an account on it or SMS if not.
But Signal change the rules.
Question:
Is there an Contacts application that could select what message app to open to communicate with others.
A manual setting should be done prior to open the good app for each contact. If a contact has more that one account (Signal, Telegram, Whatsapp, etc) one is selected by default the others by manual selection.
Clear enough? Let me know.
Thanks
