I've got a number of email accounts that use gmail to host. I've been trying to set these up through BIS, but every time they validate, five minutes later I get a message saying that the account has been invalidated and I must re-validate. I do so and the email setup program says that the email address has been validated and then five minutes later. I have no problems setting up email not located on gmail's servers. All my accounts were set on IMAP a long time ago because I access my email from multiple machines. I searched the net and found a few instances of a similar problem with gmail, but with no resolution.
I'm experiencing problems with my Blackberry ID authentication. I receive at least 20 messages a day from Blackberry Protect saying i need to log into my BBID, but when I attempt to i get the same message 'Unable to log into ID account'. I can't log into my BBID via BB Apps either. But when I use my BBID online I can gain access. It's just not possible to validate it on my handheld device. I have a BB 9900 Bold.
I recently re-install nokia messaging on my e63. while email seup recognises myemail address as already associated with a nokia messaging account, it fails to validate my password. the password isn't wrong as i have used it to log in succefully to messaging account on the system.
Any one had a issue where they couldn't validate their email service with their provider?After almost a day of boucing between my ISP and Vodafone it appears the issue could lie with RIM servers.
I recently changed my sim card and when I went to set up my email accounts they were already listed and just needed to be validated. When I try validating it a notice says: "Sorry, unable to continue your session, log in again".I am from South Africa and on the MTN network also I was changing from a MTN prepaid sim to a contract one. I've swapped sims like this before and have never had such a problem until now.
My Photon 4 G does not sync calendar, contact, Gmail with my company Gmail account. I believe that it just stopped syncing last week and I believe that it was following a Motorola update, but cannot say for sure. Under Data Delivery, both Background Data and Data enabled are checked green. However, this is interesting because Email and corporate sync is grayed out on that screen. When I go to Account, checking the sync options is not possible, but I can do a manual sync. Please note, at one time, these options to sync Contacts, Gmail and Calendar were available. I've pulled the batter. I really do not want to reset to factory default. Suggestions? (Please note this is a company Gmail account, not just regular Gmail.)
Went through and set up my gmail through the email set up wizard. Used these exact steps: http://www.blackberry.com/btsc/search.do?cmd=displayKC&docType=kc&externalId=KB03087
Issue is I'm not seeing any of my existing / read messages on my phone. After set up I had zero messages in my blackberry email inbox. How do I go about getting these message in my blackberry email?
I don't know if my thread title makes sense but basically what I would like to know is what are the advantages of downloading the Gmail app vs just setting up a Gmail account through my BIS (Email Settings/Add Account)? My main objective here is wireless contacts sync. I have read a lot of negative feedback regarding Gmail on a BlackBerry but I will not really even be using this for email all to often, although I will from time to time. What I have done is just added my new Gmail account through the native BlackBerry email setup and then downloaded Google Sync. I downloaded the Gmail app but I didn't really like the UI and I like to have all 3 of my email accounts go into the same folder.
When I get an email I like how the blackberry automatically opens up the email application if I pull it out of the holster.The only problem is that it pulls up the Messages inbox and not my gmail account inbox.Any way to fix this or do anything about it? I have the gmail enhanced plugin if that makes a difference.Also on a totally unrelated note is there a way to search the gmail server from the gmail plugin app?
Does the native HTC Mail app in Sense UI, push gmail? Or any other IMAP connections that support the IDLE command? Or does only the native gmail app push gmail? I ask, because I have multiple email accounts on my phone, gmail, hotmail, etc.. gmail is on the native gmail app, which is currently pushing... but the others are in the HTC Mail app.
I'd rather have 1 app for everything, instead of bouncing between.. IMAP is IMAP.. which the HTC Mail app supports (for moving to and from folders).. but if it doesn't push using the IDLE command (like gmail app does).. then I'm stuck where I am.
First of all I'd like to know if the data i send thru bis using the phone's mail configuration is encrypted till server, as far as i understand the route is blackberry ==> Provider ==> BIS ==> google servers ==> BIS ==> Provider ==> blackberry, now, are my password and mails encrypted during all this? I mean is it all encrypted even after it passed thru bis?
Second, I'd like to know what gmail app does (m.google.com/mail) regarding encryption, i see in its settings "always use secure connections" that should mean its all encrypted according to google policies right?Last, if i used the gmail app (google's) would i still need a BIS subscription or just an internet connection would be fine?
Reason i want to know is that Blackberry's mail may be a little more comfortable for me due to slow connection but i'd still want to be safe, only thing i noticed is that BIS logs into my gmail account (pretty normal tho).I see this has been discussed in the past but there was never a definitive answer and i think (not tried though) that packet sniffing wouldnt bring me one either.
My Gmail app. for my LG G3 is not working,when I click on it it will ask me to add my email address and it say that this account already exists.I am able to enter Gmail through the browser but not through the Gmail app.I have downloaded this app.from Play Store uninstalled it and reinstalled it a few times trying to make it work,but it does not.Interestingly,the Gmail app.in my iPad is working fine.I am not positive but it started to happen when I updated my unlocked phone to Android 5.0.
When wi-fi is on, I don't get Gmail. If I turn wi-fi off I will get an email the instant someone sends it.Wi-fi is set to stay awake when the phone is in stand-by, no power saving is enabled and no power saving apps have been installed. I factory reset the phone when I got it.I checked all my Google account sync settings and they are fine.
I do have BlueMail installed for another email account. That works fine. In fact, if I send an email to my Gmail address, and one to my Blue Mail email account, the Blue Mail client will get the email, but nothing in Gmail. One I double tap the screen to wake the phone up, the Gmail will come in. I tried uninstalling BlueMail to see if that was causing an issue, and I get the same results.
I just did a factory reset to try to fix my battery problems, and now my contacts contain all of the "other contacts" from Gmail, which I don't want. In my Contacts -> Settings -> Contacts to display, I chose my gmail account only. All of the "other contacts" are still showing. I think this is also affecting my contact sync with my car, as my most important contact didn't get synced to the car (maybe there's a limit). Either way, I have about 330 real contacts, and ~650 "other contacts".
I am using Nokia messaging on my E72 with my gmail account...is it normal that my gprs/umts connection remains always active to check new mail? I thought that Nokia messaging worked the same as blackberry smartphones, so my phone has to use gprs/umts connection only when nokia messaging server sends him a notification of an incoming mail...is is possibile to let e72 work this way?
Just got an e72 (NAM) and was able to setup mail for exchange no problem. I'm also trying to setup my gmail account. I select the GMail icon and enter my @gmail.com email address and password then the phone sits there for a while and punts me back to the main mail screen. No gmail account setup, no error, nothing.
http://email.nokia.com doesn't recognize any of my email addresses, so am I hooped?
I was able to setup my google apps account with IMAP settings, but it can't maintain a connection for more than a few minutes so is virtually useless and was hoping an account setup as a proper gmail account might work better.
So after searching the forums and Google and iTunes and just about everywhere I can think of, I still can't seem to find the app I need.I just bought my iPhone 3G-S yesterday, after using android for almost a year, and the ONLY one app/function i can't seem to find is for my SMS to be backed up automatically to an e-mail account.
On android there's an app called SMSBackup, in which all you need to do is enter your google username and password, and then it backs up all your SMS automatically to your Gmail address as soon as you receive them. They appear under a label and are archived automatically, and when you go into that label you see them as threaded conversations. I can post screenshots if anyone would like me to.
I'm surprised that with the number of apps for the iPhone there isn't a single app that does this? At least from what I can see.
Does anybody know if there is actually an app that I've overlooked and that does what I'm looking for? Or if there's an app that is in development to do this? The android one is open source so I'm sure it can be done on the iPhone, no? And before I get flamed for this, I do know they are completely different operating systems and are developed differently.
Is it because of the one-app-running-at-a-time thing? Because surely that shouldn't stop it with the new app (i forgot it's name) that allows you to run multiple apps in the background
I have Gmail pushed to my phone via Google's push instructions (exchange server).Because I want push notifications, I am in search of the best notification app.I have used Gpush in the past and it seemed to be decent. I then read that Push Gmail was better, so I made the switch and have been using it ever since.My experience with both of these apps has been that both are prone to outages (sometimes days/weeks long) and delays in pushing notifications to my phone.Is there a better app? Is there a way to do it without an app?
I wanted to know how to set up push email, on 3GS I had to do it through the exchange route to get push email with gmail. Is it the same now or can I do it through the gmail option when setting it up?Will it be better?I am asking because there used to be a delay with exchange so will this be better or will it not have push?
I have tried everything - service books, delete and add, removing gmail account and provisioning again, calling Rogers all without success, I can receive, I can send but I cannot reply....
provide the gmail app for Blackberry? I have installed on a Pearl 8110 and works like a charm. Now I have migrated to a Curve 8520 and the app does no longer available.
I have 2 gmail accounts. The setup with the first account was easy and without issues. Now I'm trying to add the other one and it says that there is something wrong with the address or the password, but I'm sure that the data I'm entering is OK.
I just got my first Blackberry today, and at the vendor, my gmail account was set on the phone. Now my gmail goes ONLY to my Blackberry and not to the gmail account on a computer (desktop and laptop). I really wanted the gmail on the BB as back-up, not primary. I find this situation to be in effect because my BB shows emails in my gmail account that are NOT showing up when I log in to my gmail. Gmail on my computer doesn't "cost" me anything. It does on my BB (until I learn what I am doing with the BB, I got the minimal data rate with AT&T), so I really don't want to have to read all my email on my Torch. I don't mind its being there; I just want it on my computer also.
1. How do I re-set the BB or my gmail so that gmail will go to both places?
2. Or, alternatively, how to do un-install gmail on the BB so my gmail will show up on my desktop/laptop computer?
I changed to gmail 2 step verification account I am not bale to reset gmail account even after following the instructions given by Blackberry for validation or though by PC as per the instrcutions received from BlackBerry mail. I am trying to get this done for the last four days I am not able get it done
I have been trying to add my gmail to my blackberry device all to no avail. Each time I enter my email and password, I received this error message "update failed". I was able to add my Yahoo Mail and is working fine. The problem is that, whether I enter the correct or wrong password, what I get is "update failed".
Under the instant mail account, yahoo logo display well, windows live and other email service providers also display well, but Gmail logo is not displaying the logo. Am using 2-steps verification for my Gmail and I have generated application specific password, but still having the same problem.
I have my work email (gmail) on my blackberry Torch 9810. I wish that after office hours I sign out from this email but I cannot find a way to sign out from the gmail.
I have had my Xperia X10 for several months now and have had a gmail account on it for that whole time. It worked fine until 2 days ago when it suddenly lost connection. I have verified the sync is checked on Accounts & Sync however it does not show it has synced since 8/22/11 @ 7:38am. The calender and contacts have synced as recently as a few minutes ago. I have turned the phone off and back on, have popped the battery out and back in. I even tried to set up a new gmail account but it tells me I don't have a reliable data connection. I have browsed the internet many times since this problem began and my other email accounts (Yahoo and MSN) are working fine.
