Hey, I was wondering if anyone knows how to make the sprint touch pro compatible to a work account? I contacted the people that handle the work email accounts and they said my phone isn't a supported device but the blackberry is so I thought there might be a way to make it so I can get my work email. Also, how do I go about removing my hotmail account from my email, I have tried but not had luck. If this is easy, I apologize in advance but I am new to all of this.
Have you tried Blackberry Connect?
I have and I absolutely can not get it to work on Sprint.
Anyone been able to get Blackberry Connect software to work on a Sprint TP?
I have tried everything available at http://www.sems.org/entry.asp?ENTRY_ID=276 and several versions that are not there as well. Someone has go to be able to solve this issue...

By work e-mail are you referring to an Exchange Server? If so, all you have to do is set up the e-mail account via Active Sync (on your device, not the PC). You will need certain information such as Username, Password, Domain (Name of the server), and server address (ie webmail.yourcompany.com).
I have never tried BB Connect, but it can't hurt to try it out.
Good luck!

Some companies, like mine unfortunately, fall for the Blackberry Enterprise Server propaganda and opt to manually disable the OTA Exchange Server connection and instead force all mobile devices to connect through BES... The big problem is that Blackberry devices suck, as recognized by Blackberry, for which they created Blackberry Connect Software so that your WinMo phone can connect to BES. My problem is that Sprint will not allow me to add Blackberry Service to my WinMo phone... So I am trying to find out if anyone knows a way around this? I am sure there are some Sprint pros here.

Just ask your IT department to set you up for pop3 or IMAP.
A company that disables OTA Exchange server access and forces Blackberry would never go for IMAP or POP....

Not true, I know firsthand... Besides, it wouldn't hurt to ask them.
Can you access your Exchange server via the web? If you can access owa.<yourcompanyname>.com to get your email via a browser then you can setup Active Sync on your device.
I am using my Sprint Touch Pro to get my Exchange mail/appts/tasks. Our official policy is that only BB are supported but it doesn't necessary mean that you can't use it. What I had to do was install a couple of certs to allow syncronization but you may not need to - depending on what CA your company is using.

I do have access to owa.mycompany.com, I have grabbed the cert from this site and attempted to connect this way, however, there is no documentation out there for how to do this, so I may have done it incorrectly. Can you detail how you did this?

PM me your owa.<yourcompany>.com address (if you are not comfortable with posting it here) and I will take a look at the certs information that your company is using and walk you through it. If you can access owa site, you should be able to sync with no issues.
System SEVEN
I had the same issue, unable to connect my Sprint Touch Pro to my company Exchange server. The IT department wouldn't budge on granting me access.
I now use System SEVEN 'Out of Office' since January and haven't looked back; It works perfectly for me and syncs everything. Check it out at www.seven.com.
what do i need to do to set up my work email on my touch pro... and where do i get the correct certs from?.
bump... i still need help w/ this! anyone please?
Can you tell me what error are you getting when you set up your exchange sync?
Edit: If your error with missing certificates, then by looking at your owa site I can tell that you need to have these public certificates installed: click here to download
Download the file above, unzip it and you will see three verisign certs. Copy them onto your phone and click on each to install them. Try to sync to your server and let me know what happens.
Hello,
Is there a way to transfer the mms from a symbian nokia phone to android? I've managed to transfer the sms, but not the mms...
Thanks in advance.
No...I tried
MobileGo
The paid version of Wondershare's MobileGo pc program will transfer data from Symbian to Android.
VMG Converter

I know I'm digging out a corpse here but I faced the same problem quite recently and there is a way: VMG Converter.
It's available through Google Play though due to recent ****ty change of Google policy you have to contact the developer to actually get a version that supports MMS transfer
Maybe someone will find it useful.
Dear all,
using an HTC Desire Z device for business reasons, I have to cope with the fact that company did lock the mailpush as of today for non iOS/BB/WinM devices.
They´re having a blacklist on the Exchange Server, filtering the words "Android", "Nitrodesk" etc... and blocking it - credentials are still working as I do have an old Windows Mobile device which still is OK.
Anybody knows where I can find some more details about the Exchange blacklist or/if how I can rename my mailclient ID ? Or if there is a mailclient outside which behaves like an e.g. Windows Mobile mailclient ?
Read something about the boot.prop, however I guess this is more the device ID then the mailclient ID - or is it same source ?

Hi,
Does anyone know if any of the changes put into 7.8 will help bring any voip support or api? If not, any suggestions for voip client?
I've tried the Ozeki sdk windows phone example, it's useless.. the client only actually interfaces with its own server app.
It's shocking to see basically every voip app on market all only connect to specific voip services that you have to sign up for, and nothing with custom settings =\
Thanks

Hi,
I'm looking for an app that allows you to connect to your own VoIP server of choice and not a predefined server, and Viber doesn't do that.
OctroTalk does allow you to add your own sip server, but it doesn't work, doesn't even try to connect (at least any traffic leaving the phone)
Ozeki SDK sort of works, but they want $700 for it and i have not gotten their demo to work over wifi yet =\
Octrotalk

Hi!
I have a rooted Xperia M dual (C2005) with factory firmare (4.2.2). Installed Afwall+ and blocked all network activity except Firefox and K9mail.
But there is still network usage (Android OS).
There is a blog post about this, but I can't link it. Google on "How to debug/examine data usage leaks in Android using iptables"
Does somebody have an idea how can I block these types of data transfer?
Thank you,
Tim

Last time this kind of issue popped up from a few days ago, it was because of tethering. Do you tether? And sometimes the Android OS reads traffic from other apps and is included there. Like for instance, you use K-9. If you use it to access your Google account for mail, that could explain the data traffic there. I'm not an expert in these matters though, so might be a better answer out there.

Hi, es0tericcha0s!
Thank you for the answer. No teething, no Google mail, absolutely no Google account registered on the phone.
Why could a @gmail e-mail account in a 3rd parity e-mail client make traffic on the OS level?
Cheers,
Tim

Weird. Can't even imagine not having a Google account on my devices. lol But most of the IP addresses were Google's so, was assuming that the OS would detect that and thought it might be linked to a Google account and you mentioned having 2 apps and one of them was an email. Stretching a bit for the answer. lol But android is funny and doesn't necessarily work the same across different updates, carriers, and manufacturers, so this kind of stuff can be tricky.
probably google giving the NSA access to your phone
