Hi, does any one know IF this is possible?
I am only allowed to connect to the exchange over mobiledata on specific apn so i cannot use wifi to sync. And if i have wifi active it wont sync, so can i force mail app to use mobiledata.?

Well. I love this thing. I see people *****ing about video play back quality and blah blah blah....but really, im amazed with this thing.
I have a couple of things i need to get worked out. Im a friggen power user with my devices and like to not only use everything, but have it working like it should.
First issue....
I have 2 web mail accounts set up in my phone. Gmail and yahoo. the Gmail account gives me my notifications of new mail, but the yahoo account doesn't. Ill get an email in my yahoo account, my phone gets it at some point but doesn't tell me it came, and it shows the message as read already. Any suggestions?
the second issue has proven to be a b#tch. I cant get bluetooth syncing via active sync on my bluetooth dongled pc working. Ive put alot of time trying to figure this one out and it is a pain. I dont know where the problem stems from.....my pc's bluetooth stack, active sync on the pc, active sync on my tp, or bluetooth config on the tp.
Please help.

Don't know waht the issue is with this. I knwo you can only have 1 active profile that shows email count on the tab, but if you go to the email screen on the right side should list all unread email for each account.

Active Sync doesn't support bluetooth connections last time i checked. Closest thing you'll probably be able to do is find out what COM port your bluetooth dongle is using, set active sync to use only that COM port under connection settings, pair, and try to sync, but i think its required to use the USB cable.

I can only get it to work on USB and it's only on the USB ports on the back of the tower.
I have never used a cable to sync my Pro. Been using bluetooth on my Gen 1 Dell XPS since day one. I do recall on my iPaq 4700, for some strange reason the first time I had to use a cable after that worked fine. Use your computer to search for services on a device (Pro), once it finds the services and you pair it you should not have any problems.
Well, since it is possible to have a BT sync I would first make sure you can connect the phone to the computer.
You'll need to turn BT on for the phone and set it to visible mode so the computer to see it. Then follow the steps. Of course make sure your computer's dongle is working.
If you get a BT link then mess with active sync settings. Particularly see if the 'allow advanced network..." box is checked on your phone. For me if I keep it checked it won't work over USB, but BT may be different. The best I can offer you is to experiment and google.
When using Sense, my exchange account worked great with ActiveSync. So when ActiveSync was on, work emails came immediately and stopped when I turned it off.
I've tried some of the ASOP roms and the setting is Automatic(Push) for mail instead of ActiveSync. Regardless of whether ActiveSync is on or off the work emails come immediately.
Is there an app or setting to make mail sync the way sense does?
I want an email similar to the stock cm7 with the option to sync on wifi only. Any recommendations?

one suggest is to turn data off till u in WiFi area..

In my opinion, instead of looking for an email app which allows Sync on wifi only, you should use an Email app which allows 'sync when Background Data turned on' and/or 'Auto Sync' settings is on. The reason is, emails are very important and they should be pushed/pulled on any internet connection you have at anytime/ anywhere. I know saving 3G data charges and/or over heat are your issues in this case, so my recommendation above resolved both of these two issues.
And K-9 Mail is such an app I would like to suggest. You can go to its Settings/Network to find these options.
My solution also means you will use an extra tasker app, such as Locale, Smart Action... for teaching your phone when/where/how long/etc... the Background Data and/or Auto Sync is turned on.
For an example which meets exactly your need, just use Locale to program your phone to turn on Auto Sync when wifi connection connected. This also means you must set Auto Sync always is off by default. That's all.
As for me, I even dont use Locale or Smart Action, but just using K-9 Mail with option of 'Sync when Background data and Auto Sync checked'
Hope this can help,
Thanks for your suggestions

Until 2-3 days ago, both my Google account sync on my phone and WiFi connectivity worked. However, both of these have now failed. I am not sure they are linked, but I assume they are considering the problems surfaced at a similar time.
1) Gmail doesn't work - the app opens, but does not download or send emails. No error message appears, it just does nothing. I press refresh to no avail. Going onto the Play Store and again encountering account sync failure made me realise it was an account wide and phone problem and not just Gmail.
2) Whilst my data connection works (and therefore the above account sync problem is not one of connectivity), the WiFi connection that worked up until 2 days ago does not work anymore. It is a hotel network, but rather than redirect me to a login page it sends me to a single page (not the login page) and does not allow any other sites. The problem is most probably down to my phone as the WiFi network and login works fine on my PC and for everyone else in the hotel.
Any ideas as to how to resolve this?
Thanks

Clear data from Google framework services..delete your google account..reboot ..add your Google account again..and do this on your data network..coz for WiFi you need to contact the admin of your hotel..

Hi,
I search over the forum but didn't find the answer to my question.
I'm the happy owner of a GS3 stock rom, not rooted, fresh out of the box.
It works verry well. I'm impressed by the device itself but I struggle with a problem.
My exchange account won't syncronize over 3G. Every few minutes, I get a message saying "unable to connect to [my account]"
gmail client works just fine but I have two email addresses (pro and home).
This is not a connectivity issue as other apps works great aover 3G and this is not a network limitation as I can connect thru other wifi networks.
I can do all necessary test and I had a look in all settings I can find without any succes until now.
I had 3 FW update since I own the device, each time I hope it will solve my probelm...
Thanks for your help.
Best regards from Belgium,
JC

Thanks for your answer.
I checked and I can find any exceptions (I can't find the options, to be clear). Under the Data Usage, I have mobile data and Wifi pages but I don't find any way to manage exceptions.
There is a similar issue with the hotmail app - SSL auth error on 3G - Fine on Wi-Fi
The way to resolve that issue is to uninstall the app - remove any accounts associated to it (the hotmail sync account removed authomatically) reboot the phone - then set everything back up BUT DO SO ON 3G and not Wi-Fi!!! For some strange reason this sorts out the issue and can then connect on both 3G and Wi-Fi.
This is obviously specific to the hotmail app - but as this is also email it may also resolve your issue - Worth a shot at least. .Good Luck

Thanks for the info.
How can I uninstall the stock email app? I will try to clear my account but not uninstall the app and see if it solves my problem. I will try it tonight when I will be back in my country and not in roamuing anymore.
Thanks
I don't use the stock app at all - I guess you can remove the associated accounts under settings/accounts then go to app manager and clear cache and data.
My issue was due to a self signing certificate or something - guess that a hidden setting somewhere changes when you accept but wasn't working correctly when setting up accounts over Wi-Fi.
Hope it works for you. You not the option to get a specific mail provide app from the playstore? - Could be another option
I will let you know
I'm quite happy with the stock mail app for now. If I can solve my problem by reseting my account over 3G, I will keep it.

Any resolution on this? My wife is having the same problem on a new exchange account she added to her One X

I resolved this issue by:
- deleting the Exchange Active Sync eMail Account I set up over WiFi (Email->Settings->Delete Account);
- created an EAS Account over 3G, selected "Accept every SSL Certificate" (Email->Settings->Add Account).
It seems that creating an EAS Account over WiFi prevents the same account to access the server over 3G/EDGE/... connection.
Tried on Sony Xperia Tablet Z SGP321, default mail app, with Android 4.2.2.

Problem solved!
Hi,
I have also an Galaxy S5 Android and sinds we have Exchange 2010, it does not synchronize any more. If I put my phone on SAVE MODE, it doesn't work. If I DISABLE the SAVE MODE it works.
Go to Setting => Power saving => put Power saving mode OFF
good luck.
