Motorola Milestone 2 :: Email Account Fails To Connect Consistently?
Dec 10, 2011
my .me email account fails to work for a few hours. The phone is set to check my emails every 15 minutes, and when the failure happens I get the yellow triangle and the message that the account name or password is incorrect. If I just wait for anything from one to six hours it starts updating again. All this time my aol accounts & gmail accounts sync fine. Does not matter if I am in one place for this time, or travelling and so passing through many different cells. The failure can happen any time of day or night. During these times my .me account is accessible via my laptop & ipod Touch.
I have set up a number of e-mail accounts on my Milestone 2 in the UK. G-Mail and btinternet work perfectly (and set up automatically). However, I am trying to set up a couple of business accounts (.co.uk and .eu domains), and althought they work ok in most respects (they pick up all incoming e-mails, and also copies of outbound e-mails created on my laptop), the phone does not seem to be able to reliably send e-mails: they get stuck in the outbox.
I have a Droid x that does not consistently download my email. I have an at&t acct. Don't get messages. My gmail acct gets them just fine. How can I sync the two accounts. The steps don't work anymore.
My phone doesn't consistently sync, even though I have push email enabled. Happens when I'm both connected to wifi and on 4G/3G. When it's not syncing, mail doesn't even sync when I open the app; I have to manually do it. Completely unacceptable, never had this problem on any other smartphone I've owned (which have all been HTCs). Maybe this is helpful, but the gmail widget and the email widget also do not consistently sync on my device. Maybe there's a trend here that points to a larger problem or solution. But I' m not worried about the widgets; I just want to be able to get my email onto my device, which should be happening with no issues.
I observed about four days ago that yahoo email accounts fails to login to nokia messaging account. I tried it both on phone directly and also login to my nokia messaging account to confirm it but to no avail. The message error that pop up was unable to login try again. I don't know if anyone is expriencing this problem; if so and have resolved it kindly let me know.
It's a couple of days that my newest 808 PureView fails to set up email accounts via the "Nokia Mail" option.
I choose the "other" email option to set up my university email, and after putting all the account information and settings, I get this error message:
"Cannot enable the mail service that allows you to fully experience your favorite providers because connection to the mail server is not possible with the settings provided.
Select 'Next' to set up mailbox without this service. You can attempt to connect to the server by adjusting the mailbox settings later."
I have noticed several other posts about this here and in other forums, but I didn't find any solutions. (I saw a post about setting the date/time correctly, which is correct in my case, and to not use Wi-Fi, which I tried as well, but the problem is still there).
I was able to easily setup my emails on my previous 808 phones and my N8 and other Symbian phones.
Blackberry9700. Email worked fine until I had to reset my password for my work account, now I can receive email via the blackberry from this account but cannot send. Send fails with "contains an invalid email address". My service provider and RIM have not been able to figure this out so far. Email account is not full, can access from a pc and send/receive. So problem is specific to the bb system.

I have read where others have had this issue, and that plain txt messages work (they do not for me) and also that you can delete the message body of the original in the reply and that works (kludgy at best) but I cant seem to delete the body of the message in the reply.
At work we have wifi that requires a username and password (our network user/pass), but when I try to connect to it with my milestone, it only prompts for the password, any idea how to set this up?
i have a milestone that i purchased last night and for some reason i cannot connect to the internet. Wi-fi is fine.I used all the settings i have foundon google. for APN i used internet.com, wapuser1, wap didnt work the milestone has these settings:
Name- APN- Proxy- Port- Username- Password- Server- MMSC- MMS Proxy- MMS Port- MCC - MNC- Authentication Type- (in this field i have these options--PAP,CHAP, PAP or CHAP)
Any help with filling these areas out, i have called Rogers but tech support is not knowledgeable with the motorola Milestone.
I see so many threads where people are taking a Telus Motorola Milestone and trying to tweak it to run on Rogers network (at slower speeds than it would on Telus).Why are they just not going to Telus? Is there some other advantage to making the Motorola Milestone work with Rogers network?It just seems many people dislike Rogers - is there something about Telus and the Milestone I should know about? Maybe locked into a contract at Rogers... but it's not like the Moto hardware is cheap without contract through Telus (something like $599 CAN).
any suggestions what to do gratefully received have done the ususal, turn everything of and on, remove battery, all are charged ok but computer doesnt seem to recognise bb any more and cant connect
I own a French Retail A953 Milestone 2 and I'm looking forward to android 2.3 update. So, after followed the thread [URL]and it's on ! The update is here.Unfortunately when trying to update my mobile using MSU the answer is "no new update availlable yet for your mobile"...I'm using A953 with Android 2.2.2 and the system version is Version.62.4.24.A953.Retail.en.FR.
is there anything i can do to improve flash video playback? after the 2.2 update i was excited to be able to use flash on my phone, but video playback on it seems so bad that it's unwatchable.it's like a slideshow at best, and at worse i'm only getting one frame every thirty seconds or so. oddly enough the sound never skips or stutters at all.i've tried it over wifi and 3g. Internet videos in the native app and other non-flash streaming media seem to work perfectly.i'm using the stock browser with flash player 10.2.157.51 (the latest one available in the android market), and i've tried several different videos linked from m.flash.com
I updated my Milestone which is UAE version to Froyo yesterday after a long delay, was really excited all evening until i discovered two problems with my wifi.The Device does not connect to the corporate network as my office uses 802.1x EAP and there is no place to enter proxy where as my friends using samsung galaxy s (Froyo 2.2) connect to the network and browse using the wifi advanced settings to enter the proxy in their device.
I have a problem in my milestone. Im trying to update my milestone to froyo from eclair 2.1 update 1 via MSU (Motorola Software Update). But after some minute It restart with a blank screen then reboot to OS and MSU says update failed. My last resort is to flash it via RSDLITE but when im trying to get into bootloader it shows blank screen then reboot to OS. I cant enter to my bootloader.
Have a brand new install of Windows 7 64bit and a 6 month old Milestone 2 which has always succesfully connected to PC/Mac in USB mass storage mode, but when trying to connect to new Windows & PC the PC tries to install MTP drivers that fail.Solution is to select the failed device in device manager and manually install the driver selecting the device as a USB mass storage device and not the default MTP device.
I recently noticed that I did not receive some critical emails from my Gmail account.I was able to manually sync the my email, but auto sync is no longer working.While trying to diagnose the problem I realized that my Yahoo Mail was also not updating on my device.My Yahoo account continuously trying to sync until finally it timed out.I tried to sync again and it gave an error message that it could not conntect to url..I tried everything with Yahoo Mail and finally deleted the account and tried to reinstall the account. At that point it would not let me rebuild the account, each time indicating it could not connect to the server.
I tried using the Yahoo mail app and I tried using the Motorola Droid mail app. Both failed to allow me to rebuild my account.I have had these accounts for quite some time, so something has changed in the last week that has caused my mail sync to suddenly fail.Gmail will update manually. Yahoo mail account is now deleted and will not allow rebuild.I have three Comcast mail accounts that sync with the Motorola email client without problems.I believe there may be a deeper issue with Yahoo mail because I also found my desktop client (Thunderbird) will no longer get Yahoo mail updates.
Cannot connect to my mac email account with my Playbook and now my bold 9900. States, " Activation request failed. A service connection is unavailable."
I cannot connect to my email account on my Torch. To do so I need to log in. I keep getting a message that I cannot connect to the server. It is possible that I am using the wrong username or password. Is there anyway I can access this info from my computer?
After spending 2 hours on the forums and 2 hrs on motorola website, downloading the motorola software update and finding that the updater says that your phone is up to date with 2.1 (where as the motorola site says 2.2 is now available) and browsing thru unending discussions, I was unable to update my Motorola milestone to Android 2.2. I last week sent my phone to the service center to ask them to update it to 2.2, they returned the phone saying it is up to date.I am sick of removing applications and always worrying about the remaining ROM availability.

If the official version is not available in Dubai can someone tell me of a shop where I can get it updated, as I dont really understand the concept of rooting and stuff like that.
I have a galaxy s6. I have connected my personal gmail account to the gmail app on the phone but it will not let me do so with my university email which works with gmail as well.
I keep getting this error:
"There was a problem connecting to idp.okstate.edu"
and also
"security certificate is not trusted by your device's operating system"
I never had this issue when connecting the account to my gmail when I used my iPhone.
I just bought a used Verizon Galaxy S5.Im using it on T Mobile. I have a personal and work email accts.I was able to setup my personal email but My work email just keeps saying cannot connect to server.I had them both setup on my old phone and I setup all my employees work emails with no problems..
I tried to set up an e-mail account and when I went on set up, email accounts, it said it couldn't connect to the server. Also when I try to log on to facebook, twitter, windows love messenger and yahoo messenger, it say that it cannot connect to the sever. What is the server and how do I connect to it?
When I set up my DroidX, I set up my e-mail account using my Verizon.net email account. I would like to remove this account, but can't find how to do this under the e-mail app settings, nor does the Verizon account show up under Accounts
How do I backup or copy an email account or individual emails from a former employer on my iPhone 5s. I can open the emails, but don't have access to the server - just messages on iPhone.Â
I'm trying without success to connect my brand new Xperia Mini/PRO to my existing Google account via a WIFI communication to my router. I first configured the WIFI connection on both the router and the phone (IP address, MAC address, WPA-PSK key).This being done, the phone actually automatically connects to my WIFI router when it is located within the router's emission range. I checked on the home page of the router that the phone is actually mentioned as a connected device. I assume there is no basic problem with my router as I use it everyday with both cable connected and WIFI laptops under Windows 7.
When I try to create - for the first time - a connection to my existing Google account, I enter my Google email address and password and lauch the connection. I then get a warning message that says "Connection... This may last a few minutes". The problem is that this message stays forever displayed and the connection with the Goggle account is not done ... until, after tens of minutes, I finally decide to cancel the connection trial. I tried as well without success to use the web browser - still via WIFI on my router. The browser isn't able to access any internet page. This seems to be a connection problem although the phone is correctly connected and recognized by the router.
