Here is the way to compose emails with the gear S, paired with samsung galaxy s3:
First I installed this rom:

Maybe composing is already fine, but I installed an update for the stock email app to version 4.4.2.0400. But can not find the URL to the file any more. Before making the update I did not check if composing is already working. Just check it out by your own.
well here is the url to the email.apk:

Hi
New to these forums so please bear with me.
I have had the SGS2 for about 3 weeks now and today I used it to forward an email from my Gmail account using the Samsung Email app (app with wax on envelope). Each time i tried to forward a msg the msg would come up and I added a email address to send too, then when I sent it the email arrived with just my covering text and no forwared email.
I am using a stock rom version KE2 and have checked its not my colleagues Iphone by sending myself a forwarded email and I can check also in the sent emails - none have the attached mail I wished to forward.
I have checked the setting and the tick is ticked for forwarding files. I have stopped and restarted the app whilst untickting and ticking the box but nothing seems to work. To forward the mail I have to enter the Gmail app and do it that way which works fine.
Whilst this isnt a major pain i just wondered if its me doing something wrong or there is a bug with the app??
Tks
John
Seems to be a bug in the email app. Seems it just refuses to include the original email body regardless if you use forward or reply.
Hi Everybody!
A week ago I finally received 3.2 to my Galaxy Tab 10.1 WiFi only. Right after that I found that IMAP client stoped working - it is downloading folders list but not any messages. Does anyone see such things? And it looks like WiFi wake-up issue didn't fixed as well. Here is my tab params: kernel - 2.6.36.3, build - HTJ85B P7510XWKL1
Greetings!

same tab, same update but not these same problems.
Kernel: 2.6.36.3, Build: HTJ85B P7510WXKL1 to confirm.
Thanks for your input!
I just made hard reset but it seems didn't help. Also after this update home screen shortcuts became too sensitive - they try to move to 1st or 2nd screen instead of just move to another cell on the middle screen. Wierd.

Maybe bold, but going back to factory settings? If the problems keep on persisting that is.
Already did - nothing was changed Probably should talk with local support
I have had the same issue after the update. I tried getting Samsung support but no luck, they just said check with your network admin for the correct parameters. Wasted 40 minutes trying get the support person to understand the problem and gave up.
IMAP Email issue on Android 3.2
Grrrrr! I Spent 10 minutes on phone w/ GoDaddy to verify IMAP settings...They are right (big surprise). Spent 43 minutes on phone with Verizon w/ both tier 1 & 2 tech support....Nothing! THEN spent another 50 minutes on the phone with Samsung...again NOTHING! They ALL say, "haven't heard of this issue", even though a quick Google search shows...LIAR!! My inlaws are VERY mad, they spent $700 for something that worked great for a month, then the update came and now their emails do nothing, and email is one of the main things they wanted a tablet for...they travel in an RV a lot.
And the strangest thing is tht I can send an email from the tablet IMAP email account in the native Android "app" and it does go...it's just not showing what's in the folders.
I downloaded email apps which work fine, so for everyone to just throw their hands up and say nope not my problem is NOT ok! These people (my inlaws) are about to go to Verizon and have a WORD (meaning my father-in-law will yell....a lot!) I kinda don't blame him....$700 for something that I have to use a "bandaid" on to view email...IS rediculous.
Come on Samsung/Verizon/Android just admit there is a problem and fix it already!
If anyone figures out a workaround other than an app please email me.
Hi,
I have updated my device two days ago and have the same problem with IMAP, I can see all of the folders but cannot see the body of messages!
Any hope to fix this?
Thx
Is the IMAP problem with the stock email client? I've never had any luck with the stock email app and IMAP, beginning with my Droid Charge back in May of last year. I've used K9 (free app) and currently have nine IMAP accounts (IIRC; including two Gmail accounts) set up. No problems with them getting push notifications of new mails.
I'm not a huge fan of K9. It works flawlessly for the most part, but occasionally clicking "show pictures" in emails doesn't work (ok, more frequently than 'occasionally'), among other things. Still, for reliable IMAP notifications and sending, I can't complain...especially for the price. Still, I wish it were a little more polished. <shrug>

That is frustrating, same issue with native email client after upgrading to 3.2 - IMAP will not show any messages in the folders. I hope ICS upgrade will fix it.
Today I chatted with Samsung Tech support. Here was my issue:
"Wifi Galaxy Tab 10.1 GT-P7510. After geting OTA for Android 3.2 the Samsung "Email" app would not show any messages for the IMAP account that I have.
So far I have tried removing and re-adding the account, clearing out data from application but that does not help. I can see folders created under my Inbox but no messages will show, just "Load more messages 0/0" which stays the same after refreshing. If I create folders via webmail those will show up on tablet, but once again without any messages in them.
Following last support agent advise I have done a factory reset and then a Hard Reset but issue is still there. "
here was reply from Samsung:
Augustine: As you have performed all the troubleshooting steps it needs to be isolated at the service center. As we performed all the troubleshooting steps and issue still persists, the device needs to be serviced. Let me provide you with a link where you can file an online service request. http://www.samsung.com/us/support/service/request
Hi, I have a Samsung Galaxy S3.
My friend has a Samsung Galaxy Ace 4.
We are both on the EE (Everything, Everywhere) Network.
If I go to Contacts -> Groups - select a group and then edit it, I have a Message alert setting.
This setting allows a tone to be set for text messages to a specific group.
I was thinking of upgrading to Ace 4 or Galaxy S5 but when I look on his Ace 4 - I can't find the Message alert setting in Contacts/Groups.
To clarify - on the Galaxy S3, I can set a Message alert per-contact or per-group (or both).
In the Ace 4, I can set a Message alert per-contact only, the option for per-group doesn't seem to be present.
Has this option been removed in a later version of Android?
If not - how can I restore it?
If it was removed, why - and where would I find equivalent functionality?
My S3 is using Android 4.3, the Ace 4 is using Android 4.4.4.
In case it matters, the Messaging system being used on both phones is the inbuilt Messaging app, not WhatsApp or Hangouts.
If anyone can point me in the right direction, it'd be appreciated

Hey does anyone know of a way to compose new emails direct from watch using accounts setup on phone rather than just replying to received emails. If you do I am extremely keen to find out. Also interested in getting BBM working natively if anyone has any suggestions. Am also posting in development forum.
not sure u can

You can use the email app on the watch to compose new emails as long as you use stock email app on the phone. Otherwise, there is no way.

I am unable to compose new emails to other contacts I can only reply to emails that I receive
Open the email app on the watch and you will have option to compose new emails. However, if you are not using stock Samsung Email app on the phone, this won't work.
Had someone got the stock samsung email apk for me. I thought I already had it but I can't compose new emails
If you have a Samsung phone, it is part of ROM. If you don't have a Samsung phone, you should know a lot of the Gear S features won't work.
I do have a Samsung phone and have being using the default email app but I am still unable to compose new emails from the watch - only reply to received messages. Any other suggestions??
Here is the direct copy from the manual:
Sending Emails
1. On the Apps screen, tap Email.
2. Drag the screen downwards from the center of
the screen and tap Compose.
3. Add recipients and enter a message, and then
tap to send the message.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
When I drag down nothing happens
As in no compose or any other options come up
Hey where did you get the manual from?
Then you must have something configured wrong on your phone. It works on mine just like manual says. Make sure the stock Email app is the default email app on your phone and has email accounts setup. When you open the email app on watch, you should see existing emails on the app as well.

Direct downloaded from Samsung.
I found this update link in another thread but after updating, the app crashes and won't open.

It just comes up on the phone "unfortunately email has stopped"
Samsung's apps are usually phone model specific. You don't want to blindly update from other sources.
I think that's what's happened and it didn't like it. Is there a way too restore the previous version
I don't know. You can try uninstall it. But you might wind up need a hard reset. Are you using a Samsung phone that meets the requirement of Gear S? Not all Samsung phones are supported.
Yep everything else goes fine with Gear s. I can install new apps etc and get email forwarded from my phone but I just can't compose new emails
Have just done factory reset so will see if it fixes it
Bought a Samsung Galaxy Tab A 10.1 and note that unlike my older Samsung that this replaced when typing an email address in a message I am composing I do not get the choice of contacts popping up.
It is always necessary to type the full address rather than the first couple of letters before getting suggestions from my contacts.
I assume it is a setting somewhere which I am missing.
