Auto suggestion of email address not happening. - Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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.

[Q] 3.2 issues on P7510 (IMAP and WiFi)

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

Email addresses showing up when i start a text

I sync my contacts with Google so every time I get a new phone they just appear in my address book. However, when I start a text message and begin typing in a persons name, example A, it will show everyone in my address book that begins with A but also every email address I've ever written that begins with A! Any idea how to turn this off? I can't figure it out! I just want contacts with #s to display on my Galaxy Note. Thanks.
Goto phone/contacts, menu key, then tap more, then display options. You can check to only show contacts with phone numbers it you can turn it off from showing that group that's showing only email addresses.

Universal Stock Email issue with exchange account - reply removes quoted text

Hello,
I have owned multiple android phones across multiple versions up to and including jelly bean on my galaxy nexus. With my active sync exchange account, I have a problem replying to emails. The reply will go through, but even when I have "include quoted text" checked, it will still delete the trail and there will be no quoted text. It's rather frustrating since it creates confusion, especially if I need to add new recipients to the trail and they have no idea what's going on since the history is gone.
Has anyone run into this and know how to fix? Please note that this only occurs on my exchange account using the stock email app. If I use any other email protocol such as imap, there is no issue. Also note that I tested this exchange account with an iOS device and there is no issue either, so I don't feel like it is on the server side. Thanks.

Hi
I have the same problem. Did you resolve it?

the solution for composing emails with the galaxy S3

Here is the way to compose emails with the gear S, paired with samsung galaxy s3:
First I installed this rom:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/development/rom-official-port-dn4-rom-e-team-t2949871
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:

Old android email app, set default sending address from combined view

I use the old android email app because I don't like any other email app. I've gotten it going on my new phone but I can't remember how I was able to change the default sending address on a new email when in the combined view. I pretty much only send work related emails and need them to go out on my work address. When in combined view and I hit new email it defaults to my gmail address. I have to click and choose my work address. I was able to change it on my last phone but I don't remember how I did it. Anyone remember how to change it?
It likely won't be useful to anyone else but I figured out how I changed it before. Well actually you can't change it. You have to enter your accounts in the order you want them to be in. I removed and reinstalled the app making sure to add my work email first. Now in the combined view a new message comes up with my work email address in it already. Thanks qqq1, you're the best.
