Guest vinaymanro Posted September 22, 2009 Report Share Posted September 22, 2009 Great news. Google just turned on push Gmail support! You can now get your Gmail messages pushed directly to your phone. Having an over-the-air, always-on connection means that your inbox is up to date, no matter where you are or what you're doing. Sync works with your phone's native email application so there's no additional software needed. Only interested in syncing your Gmail, but not your Calendar? Google Sync allows you to sync just your Contacts, Calendar, or Gmail, or any combination of the three. To try Google Sync, visit m.google.com/sync from your computer.Here is how to setup your account on your windows mobile handset. Windows Mobile users have been waiting for this from Google for sometime. Well done Google for listening! Important! Google Sync uses the Microsoft® Exchange ActiveSync® protocol. When setting up a new Exchange ActiveSync account on your Windows Mobile device, existing data may be removed from your phone. Please make sure to back up before you set up Google Sync. Now all we need is the ability to sync multiple exchange accounts...! More information can be found at http://gmailblog.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mattyfiend Posted September 22, 2009 Report Share Posted September 22, 2009 Anyone else having problems with this tonight? Mine just keeps coming back with errors. I guess Google bit off a bit more than it could chew and got swamped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just go into your dashboard > service settings, and enable mobile mail. Mine took a while to sync, I guess googles servers were overloaded with the initial rush. But its syncing perfectly now.

Can't see anywhere on google that tells you the settings to configure this in Outlook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Dr Who Posted September 23, 2009 Report Share Posted September 23, 2009 No google has only setup EAS (Exchange ActiveSync) so mobile only. So still no way to synchronise my desktop Outlook with my gmail account and phone then? I assume if I use the Google Calendar sync application I can keep this up to date and this will propagate through, and by using imap can at least pull email to Outlook and have that sync through but no contact sync unless I want to become a Google business customer (https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gappssync) without using unreliable third party apps?

Guest UncleBeer` Posted September 23, 2009 Report Share Posted September 23, 2009 I've tried this twice in the last 24 hours. Each time, emails took almost 10 minutes to show up. Maybe it's just slow servers, but I'm sticking with my 3rd party IDLE solution for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest rameses Posted September 23, 2009 Report Share Posted September 23, 2009 It also works on non-WinMo phones too. I've got my SE k850i sync'd to Gmail for apps, calendar and mail. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest hp1 Posted September 23, 2009 Report Share Posted September 23, 2009 I am getting my gmails pushed to my diamond but can someone confirm whether this is a two way communication? With an IMAP connection when I delete items from my inbox they are deleted straight away from the server. This does not be to be the case here, after deleting from my device the email was still sitting on the sever. I dont want to then manually sync just to see the changes on the server, or am i expecting too much? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest mandt Posted September 26, 2009 Report Share Posted September 26, 2009 Hello all @ MoDaCo!! It's been a while since I posted (over a year I think), and in the meantime I've got married, had another child, new job etc etc...I still check in from time to time to keep up with what's going on though, and still stay loyal to all things WinMo and haven't been tempted by al the pretenders :D Anyway back on track........Gmail with proper Exchange! Awesome! Actually not quite for me, all my mails have their attachments removed, I have tried toggling the settings, have the phone set to download the complete message, have removed and re-created the partnership, all to no avail. Every mail I receive has it's attachment removed, what am I missing?? If anyone has any ideas I'd be glad to hear them Many Thanks from a frustrated (and once very frequently posting) user :) Phone is Touch Diamond BTW, in compact IV form with T-Mo 1.93 ROM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest emyllis Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 Silly question: Do I have to have an exchange server for this to work? Just not sure as I don't have it, but would like push email... Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Sterneman Posted October 3, 2009 Report Share Posted October 3, 2009 Greetings all. I've been a lurker and user for quite a while, but haven't posted much. I had a Samsung Blackjack II that I got configured to sync to Google this way just fine. Unfortunately, it died, but I got a Samsung Omnia II (i8000) to replace it. Here's my problem: I can't get my Omnia II to sync to Google. I've set it up using all the correct specifications, but it errors out. The support code it gives is 0x80070057. I've searched the internet for it, but haven't found anything relevant that helps me out. Has anyone else had issues with this? Thanks.

Guest dleeming Posted September 9, 2010 Report Share Posted September 9, 2010 Hi, Does any one know how to change the folder where Google Sync saves to. Mine saved all to the Program Storage and not to the My Storage or Storage Card. Any help would be greatly accepted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
