Recommended Posts

ok folks just finished playing with this for the moment, hows about a galaxy tab email client for the streak :D

few issues in here though at min , they are listed below,

What is working?

Gmail Setup(also through "Other" setup as IMAP")

Gmail mail loaded

Gmail can send mail

Logging working so it keeps track of what has been sent/received

Rotating to portrait works

Notifications

Yahoo and Hotmail(possibly as well as gmail)

Conversation mode

Deleting messages

Switching between folders within mailbox(click on INBOX)

Exchange Email Fixed

Refresh Button Added

Issues

pop email accounts will add but never show emails, use imap instead as this should work.

ill probly play further with this also, and thanks to celljunkie for helping out this little port

Sounds interesting! Will give it a try.

if the zip wont flash jus grab the 3 apks and drop them in system/app then reboot

Cool. Also, could you possibly put up the stock email app, in case someone needs to revert back??

Got an error while flashing the zip. Status 6. Gonna try dropping the apps in system/app like you suggested.

Works fine after copying the apks to system/app! But I did have to assign user permissions on the three apks after copying them to the folder and then reboot, otherwise the Email app wouldn't show up in the app drawer.

Anyway to make it a separate email client that doesn't replace the existing one?

for whatever reason... opening unread email does NOT force close... one thing i'd like is a refresh button - can't seem to find one (but thats just the apps short coming :D). Wonder how this affects batt life.

This is awesome. I hate the stock email app.

Very nice. Steve, if you are able to get exchange email working, could you by chance do away with the stupid limitation of only syncing 30 days of exchange email? I find it very odd that the stock email client will sync all email for IMAP, but will only sync 30 days for exchange.

You rock!

How did you change the user permissions? Nvm. Found it.

Exchange fix would be great :D

Good work so far.

Yeah, no FCs here either when opening unread email. If only the fonts could be made smaller!!!

Email.apk

This makes refresh button show and my Exchange to work. Found this file on a different forum.

But I cannot seem to get normal pop mail now.

Hopefully someone can get further. Looks promising.

The first package posted here will let me access my pop email but Exchange FCs. Hopefully someone can have a look at both these Email.apk files to make one that works with all.

Finall lol. Downloaded Alogcat from market, saved to sdcard, sent to gmail, accessed from pc, posted here by muppet/myself lol.

I have put the apks into the system/app 3 times now, same result. each time changing user permissions as directed.
