Windows Live Settings on this phone - Omnia 7 General

Hi
I have recently bought this phone and think its great. For some reason though my hotmail is not working. Keep getting an error message when its synchronising. What should be in the server box? as i think i may have deleted something out the box by mistake. Thanks.

All fine after deleting the setup and recreating one using POP (instead of IMPç which is not supported)
Remember to tick the incoming + the outgoing mail SSL security' option.
Remember also to set your internet Gmail' settings to allow POP.

Oops, I spoke too fast! It is logging on and synchroinising, but no email comes!
There was a problem with gmail in general today - probably for 2-3 hours...
Here's the fix!

There is a fix for that issue! It took me a while to find out, but it works perfectly.
In the gmail account settings of outlook mobile, add "recent:" in front of your username, Eg. "recent:kyphur"
Now messages downloaded on your PC wil still show up on your phone and vice versa.

Tested, it rocks!

thank you so much for this tip. I thought I was going mad, everything seemed to be set up as per instructions etc, but messages kept vanishing. Then I realised that it was opening outlook which stimulated this. Your tip has worked a treat for me.
what if I don't have it setup on my pc and only on my phone. As of right now, it synchronizes and told me it was downloading all 465 of my messages, but it showed nothing in the inbox.
Have you tried the java applet? I find it much nicer than the POP version, though the "recent" tip might make me go back.
The java applet seems throw up a ton of java errors in WM6 for me...anyone else get that?
I don't have those errors. I am running LSVW's version of WM6. The Gmail applet works fine. It did NOT work under WM5 but now it does.

Similar problem, I keep getting a screen poping up asking for my username and password. The 'save password' box is always un checked and every time I check this but to no avail, it keeps poping back up...
Getting annoyed as the email is the main thing thats bugging me with the phone at the moment.

Setting up hotmail difficult

I have tried to set up hotmail on my HD2 as per HTC website instructions
http://www.htc.com/uk/howto.aspx?p_id=297&id=168&page=2
Only stage 5 doesn't appear on my phone and when I have finished I never receive mail to this account even though I know my PC account is receiving mail. What do I do?
Are you sure you're entering your hotmail address correctly? HD2 should pick up on a hotmail or live address. What domain is your address at? If it's a different address set up for a passport it may not work
i think you should try thewindows live application from the marketplace. once you have it, you can sync mail...and probably.conracts too.
having the similar problem... my account is hotmail.co.uk and when i try to setup it says either pass or id is incorrect but i am 100% sure that pass is correct...is it something to do with .co.uk
help please!!!
thanks
As mentioned by tshizzle - use Windows Live. It automatically sets up your hotmail account when you set that up.
It should be on your phone already, but there's a newer version on the Marketplace.

it dosnt work there either...same problem for me atleast
I hate to say this, but you must be entering the information incorrectly.
After entering the information in step 4, can you take a screenshot (use BsB Tweaks if you don't know how to do this), and upload it for us to check for you.
It works for everyone else, so it must be something you're doing.
Hotmail
Can get my .com to sync, but not my .co.uk. Maybe its .uk that as a problem.
I just added a hotmail.co.uk account and it worked for me. Strange problem this is.

Hi Timax. I think I know what your problem is. I noticed you are with Tmobile, so am I and I kept running up against the problem where it gets stuck at stage 4 of 5! Very annoying. Apparently it's because Tmobile diverts the service via their proxy server. Follow the instructions in the thread below on post #2 and it should be fixed!

what is the incoming/outgoing mail server have you used...what do you put under these boxes?
My hotmail was set up through LIVE and my inbos is just not being updated, unlike my gmail and outlook ones. I know this becuase I just checked my hotmail account on the computer and I have 3 new emails and this has not been updated on the phone. However when I press send/receive on the phone it does sownload the new emails. Anyone know a way of sorting this out, it's annoying having to do it manually everytime!
johncmolyneux you rock i had been banging my head for days trying to get my hotmail to work, and the answer was right under my nose. i just needed to update to the new windows live app. man i feel like a dumbass for not going back to basics before jumping into all the other stuff. Thanks a Million bro!!!
I have to agree that it's very hard to make hotmail account working properly, while Gmail, Yahoo! mail work fine.
I've tried so many times and everytime it behaves differently. Once it went through all the mails and get the first mail(many years ago) then stopped working. Once I setup through Windows live, it took me to the Windows Live web page then stopped at there...very frustrated...
Now, at last, it works like a charm--but I have no idea how I did it since I've done so many times, each time is a little different and I am totally confused...

Tattoo and Microsoft Exchange Server

All,
I'm sure, that this question is easy to answer for most of you:
Does the Tattoo supports an Exchange account? I have read that it is not supported (only over third party apps)
Please help me out on that!
Thanks a lot in advance,
Asterix
A friend told me that it does support MS Exchange.
He is using it.
But he sad that he just can't download attachments so he has to send those emails to his gmail account and then to download them.
The Mail app allows you to add an MS Exchance account. But it has NEVER worked for my email account. It might work for yours... who knows... But the Tattoo does support Exchange server.
It does work, but there is an issue.
I have access to my work email (via Exchange Server and the Mail app) and it was very easy to set-up. It works really well, the app is quite nice. It will do things like listing your emails by conversation.
However, I can only read emails. I can't send emails.
This is a bug in Android. Not sure whether it is being fixed in 2.1. I do think you can get it to work though if you have help from your IT team. I have read that they can change some of the security permissions on the Exchange server (ie exclude you from certain protocols). I haven't tried it though.

works great
Hi Guys, I was having the same problem with not being able to send mails and download attachments, even the mails which were longer, wouldn't load fully.
I requested the company's IT team to take a look at it and they changed some settings as Admins on the exchange server to get it working (I believe Android does not provide remote-wipe/ pin-password lock feature to be enforced, they had to bypass the check for me)
Hope it helps.
I had the problem of emails not sending when I set my son's Tattoo up.
I then accessed remote.xxx.com (where xxx is my domain name) and got an error, I tried again and it said the certificate was invalid, once I accepted it it let me in. I tried to access the Internal web site and got the cert error again. I accepted the cert again and just got a blank page.
I exited and have since been able to send emails without a problem.
I believe it's a certificate problem but mine has somehow resolved itself.

Interesting.
Sadly, tried it and didn't seem to work for me. It just kept defaulting to our corporate webmail server. I had heard it was a certificate problem too, but also the remote wipe etc needed in the security settings on the server.
Great that you've got it working though.
- Mark
no problem
Hi!
Thanks for all the answers. I got my Tattoo now, setting up the exchange account was no problem at all, everything working fine. Some parts are a little bit not as fine as I'm used from my WM phones in the past. (times to set up when it should get the mails, which folder should get synchronized,..)
Thanks,
Stefan
I spoke to soon.
My son's phone keeps on saying it can't send - so I received 10 copies of the same email until I deleted it from the outbox.
There is a definite problem - has anyone found a solution?

[Q] Outlook setup in HD2 witn Windows 7.5

Hi,
I am using HTC HD2 with XBmod-Yuki Build 8107.
i want to setup Outlook on my phone but its giving me the following error
"There is a problem with the certificate. Error code: 80072F0D"
I downloaded the Root CA certificate from my PC and installed it on the phone but the error persists.
Can anyone help?
Regards,
On every ROM for my HD2, I have to install 2 certificates from my Exchange Server. I forward them to my Hotmail Account and installed them, after this everything works fine.

which 2 certificates? I installed the Root Certificate from my company exchange account . The other one?
Regards,
I have two, one is from the Certificate Server (Root CA) and the second one is for my Exchange.. I dont know how to explain..
i never tried exchange server . can anyoen shed somelight to me ?
still struggling with Outlook Exchange setup... funnily it connected once, downloaded a number of emails and then went back to the same error.
Can't figure out what went right for a brief period before going wrong again
Help please.
regards,
I never had any issues until Ultrafruit came alone, what I find now is that whilst I get the error is does actually download and sync with exchange, bit of a pain but it works, on the initial setup, tell it to download everything, then when it fails roll back the sync to only the last 7-14 days
Exchange can also fail if...
A your time zone and date isn't setup correctly
B you have a corrupt email in your inbox ( it will look ok, and will display fine but something in it is broken that you cant see)
C you have a email in your inbox with a HUGE attachment
D Cert errors, although as I said, mine was working with Xbmods rom

Hi thanks for the info, but i have none of the 4 issues u mentioned above but still can't connect to exchange.
Its possibly a problem with HD2/HD7 and Microsoft Outlook

The error is very much a certificate error, im not 100% sure but i don't think its just a case of getting the cert off the exchange, you need the Root cert to who issued that cert.
basically there needs to be a trusted chain of authority and WP is having a fit because it cant see that chain,,,,
i think
