Hotmail messaging not working with GPS?

Hi Guys,
First I'd like to say that this is my first post. I only found this site after seeing an article in Engadget and WOW! I've loaded the new DCD ROM with the upgraded radio and Its quadrupled the usefulness of my P4000 (titan). I use it to track my millage with work and all! Amazing that this feature was hidden!
I would like to ask if anyone is having trouble accessing their hotmail account via the inbuilt messaging app. I've added my Yahoo mail no prob but when i try to add my hotmail account it just gives me a link to open IE to windows live.
If this feature was removed from the rom for some reason, then so be it. If this is a repeat of another post than I apologize for it but if someone knows how to fix it up please let me know.
Thanks
Chris

just curious, what do you use to track your mileage?
You must use Windows Live to access your hotmail account. It has nothing to do with GPS.
Hotmail doesnt support pop3 (unless you are a paying customer?)
I'm just using GPS tunner. I just plug in the car charger, turn it on and at the end of the day i can see where i went how many km's i drove.

LOL, I had no idea what you were talking about until i went back and read the O.P. for the Rom... I missed the fact that it was stated in plain english right on the post... Working great now! Thanks

[Q] Samsung Account username ?

Hi everybody,
I did just purchased a Galaxy S2 I9100... A month ago or so.
And I can remember me to have sign up to a Samsung Account, as asked when I first started the device or maybe as I tried SamsungApp.
But I forgot my Password and I don't remember it asked me for a username...
And I didn't get any email as confirmation or so... !!! And that really weird... I find.
I have my phone, my email adress, and every thing, but just this username is missing and this damn password... I even still know the date on which I registered !!!
I though they would be some recover password functionnality somewhere...
But firstly I wasn't able to find any mention of a Samsung Account on my phone, except in the "Accout and Sync" part of the settings, which doesn't help me much as it does just confirmed that I once created a Samsung account
So, did you know some workaround to get my username back ? or maybe where I can find a password recovery function ?
I tried it with this homepage : innovator.samsungmobile.com but it just said me that my "email adress was already in the system" and that if I wanna get my password back, I need to give my username...
So what could I possibly do ?
I would be pleased to be able to log somewhere directly from my phone, as this account is actually registered in the phone... Somewhere where I could see my username would be the best...
And please don't say me "erease your samsung account and create a new one" because I don't want to be registered anywhere without having access to my profile with this email address !!! It's important for me to have control over this one...
And could also somebody explains me why we need such an account ???
Sorry for my bad english, I'm a French-speaking personne.
Username = the e-mail address, as far as i know.
I believe you got the confirmation mail in your gmail inbox. Go ahead and check that
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
Well, I'm sure it's not the case : I have double checked and I didn't get any email at all !!! That's unbelivable, but it's maybe gone to the spam, and as I didn't checked it for a month at least, it must have been deleted... Anyway, nothing samsung's related, either in my gmail inbox, nor in the spam...
Any other tips ?
PS : username must be between 4 and 12 char... and my email adresse is bigger as that ^^' I've try it, cutting the 13,14 and 15th char, but it didn't work
Strange, if i wanna log into Samsung Apps it definetely says e-mail and password, nothing about a username. Don't know what username you are talking about Try logging in from your pc and see for yourself: http://www.samsungapps.com/
OMG, I'm really silly ! I did obviously give a false birthday to samsung, ( because I don't like to give any information about me to anyone...) But I did it in such an hurry, wanting to use my phone, that I forgot which false birthday I gave... And I didn't give the same as I normally do...I'm cursed, no way to explain how I was able firstly to forget my password and now the birthday I gave... well, I was certainly too happy top get my phone, I did everything in a hurry and forgot it directly, first timer it happen to me. well I guess I don't really need to have those login as my phone has it in its memory and if I do a reset or flash some new rom, I well still be able to create a new account...but it's quite disturbing, I find : I know I have an account, my phone is linked with it, but I'm unable to access my account xD
Btw, it has been little over one hour that I began surfing on the web using my phone through my wifi network and it's (the phone)now under 35% of remaining battery and the back it's really really hot... It's abnormal, isn't it ?

[Q] STOCK email client - hotmail - Error 301

Somehow my hotmail account stopped working on stock email client. I removed the account from the client and then attempted to login again. It shows following message on numerous attempts: "The attempt to sign in failed due to an invalid User name, Password, or incorrect settings. Please check your username, password and settings on the web, and try again. (301)"
I have spent around 2 days to sort this thing out and has done googling to find any solution, Appreciate the help.
I don't have a solution for your email client, but there is an official Hotmail app. It works very well on my S2 and it has address book integration as well. Perhaps you could give it a try.

Hi dear, Thanks for advice. I did downloaded and tried on the app as suggested. Again I have following message:
"the attempt to sign in failed due to an invalid email address and/or password. please check your email address and password and try again (300)"
I pinch myself to make sure I am typing everything right. However on browser it works alright. Any suggestion
How complex is your password? Any chance you can try changing your hotmail password to something simpler temporarily as a test to see if it is indeed a password issue?

Somehow a changed password did the trick.
I have the same issue, can you give me some info about your old ( ) password? For example, how long was it? Did it have any special non-numerical char in it? Cheers

Old password was 13 letters long mix of upper and lower case letters with some numbers. no non-numerical char.
At the risk of sounding like a stalker, how does the new one differ?
Mostly, is it shorter? Did the old one start with a number and the new one doesnt?
Mine is 20 chars long, has 2 "symbols", some numbers and it starts with a number. I'd really really like to find out where they cocked up with this

That (Bold) was the reason in my case.
Just a piece of information that hotmail does not take more than 16 letters/numbers/symbols etc as password.

Why is there this limit when authenticating from a mobile application, whichever that might be (the official app, the samsung email app, etc)?
I am afraid hotmail officials are the right people to tell you.

Web Field Password Saved in Forms (for Newbie)

Hi Guys
Newbie here
I have a problem which i was hoping someone here could help. I have a GalaxyTab 10.1 and use it for work, presentation etc. I have a website which I use for some of my project management, and since I haven't used it for about 4 month, I actually forgot what the password is. I could retrieve it by using forgot password via email, but the old email address I stored in there no longer exist. I contacted the webhost (not much of a help) and they said it's privacy, unless email working, they can't do much.
Now whenever I visit the website, the username and password field is actually automatically filled up. password is in ********, when i click log in, it says you have to repeat the password again, which is where i get stuck.
Someone mentioned that there is an app which i can browse through all the password saved in the web explore and that might solve my problem.
Any suggestions?
Thanks guy, appreciated heaps!!
