I may have uninstalled it using Titanium backup but I doubt it as I only removed known stuff like live wallpapers and other items I was sure of.

Just go to Google Play get the official Microsoft mail application called: Hotmail Seven +, and configure it for Push, much more reliable than the stock mail client.
I'm trying to add Microsoft Exchange Server for work not Hotmail.
incidentally, if you're on exchange 2010 or office 365 then the mail client called touchdown ****s all over the stock client. Plus it will sync all the usual plus outlook notes...

I tried Touchdown but it doesn't integrate with the stock calendar.
Thanks so very much.
Hard reset device should bring it back.
Otherwise last option is reflash ROM.

thanks dr.ketan but those aren't options for me.
A friend rooted my device and set it up for me. That friend is busy and so am I these days. Flashing or hard resetting is difficult at this point.
Can't someone point me to the MS Exchange app so I can simply re-install it?
Thanks.
Try this first
setting - application - manage - All - Email - clear cache N data.
If not works
email.apk attached here

Dr ketan,
I downloaded ES File Explorer but it didn't let me copy the file.
So i enabled Root settings in the settings of ES File Explorer then i also needed to Mount File System in settings to copy the file. I did that.
But it says file not Installed.
I dismounted system file but still doesn't let me install email.apk.
Thanks for your patience.
I m not familiar with es file explorer
But for root explorer, u just need to copy n paste to systrm/app folder you have to just press on w/r on top once before it.
Then long press on file n change the permission rw r r (just look othet apk there)
You need not to install, once you put file thr is enough.

Best to reflash a stock rom, and or the rom of your preference to get it back and be careful with removing stuff next time

starting from scratch is not an option.
@ketan:
email.apk is (in samsung roms) only the widget, there are also the "exchange services", which might be also important in this case.
also, which email version to choose (or for us: to provide) depends heavily on the OP's rom! if he is on ICS the GB email.apk wont work, even if he is on AOSP the stock samsung email.apk wont work, due to missing parts in the framework!
@OP:
if a data wipe is not enough (which i doubt, cause i guess the system app from /system/app is missing) you would have to reflash your system partition as well. then it should work again!

Many thanks for your detailed response.
I am running the following:
model #: GT-N7000
Android Version: 2.3.6
Baseband Version: N7000XXLA4
Kernel Version: 2.6.35.14-ver.3.2
[email protected] #3
Build number: Rocket-v19-XXLA4-eybee1970
I'm apprehensive about flashing or formatting because I am not very familair with the process.
A friend of mine rooted my device then installed rocket rom for me. I mean I know about it and watched him do it but to do it myself would require a lot of time. Then also I'll have to edit my device to get it to the way I want it... a hassle.
Why cant someone check what .apk files are needed for the exchange server on their device.
I will cross-check mine and the ones that are missing from mine will be added.
Should be as straightforward as that I think.
Thanks guys.

Gmail 2.3 is in the market now but when I try to install it I get "Package file was not signed correctly."
I'm currently using Gmail 2.2.1. I even found the apk online and tried to install it manually but it just says installation unsuccessful. Anybody else seeing the same problem? Any fix?
FIX:
Here is the easiest fix I could find from within this thread...
Uninstall 2.2.1 with titanium or root explorer, reboot, then install from the market.
Mine installed fine and runs fine... I'm rooted/s-off and installed the deoxed 2.2 leak and running kings #4... (just for reference)

EDIT: just saw this from rmk
"I know about it and expected it. The reason this is occurring is because our Gmail version had to be patched to work with Voice Search. I had been considering a new release the past few days anyway so this will act is a nice catalyst.
Since I am here posting, here's what I was thinking (please provide comments/feedback on it):
I want to move more apps back to /system/app. Prior to Virtuous Buddy and/or EZ-Customizer it was compelling to move as many apps as possible to /data/app. At this point, it just adds another place to have to go to remove stock apps. My thought is, it would be easier for you guys to either use Buddy or Customizer for EVERY stock app.
The trigger for this is two-fold. First, I discovered a bug in the /data/app logic which is just becoming increasingly complicated to deal with. And second, if everything is in one place, I can modify the scripts to move disabled apps rather than delete them, so you can easily toggle them off and on via buddy.
Our end result is the same, you can still easily remove everything, it just becomes simplified. I was thinking this next release would be 3.0 (given the magnitude of the change). Following 3.0, every upgrade would be made available as a small patch, like we had from 2.5 to 2.6.
What do you guys think?"
If you are rooted with a custom ROM, use Root Explorer to rename "Gmail.apk" to "Gmail.apb" then REBOOT. You should now be able to install Gmail update from Market.

I searched "gmail" in Root Explorer and found /system/app/gmail.apk and tried to rename that but it would not work. Just keeps reverting to .apk even though it says rename successful.
Could I try moving the gmail.apk to another folder and then downloading?

First thing I do every time is change to RW. Would not change it.
Didn't want to pay for root explorer, but this works:reboot into recovery, mount /system, then use the command prompt to move the Gmail.apk. Reboot and download and install from the market.

My rooted phone crashed the other night - wouldn't boot passed the Galaxy S screen. So I wiped it clean.
When I tried to install a program, the Package Installer was missing from the list of actions.
I flashed back to stock ROM.
It's still not showing up in my actions menu.
When I go to settings/applications/ALL - it shows Package Installer at 0.00B.

Never heard of that website and it keeps timing out on me.
You're better off using the video linked above to Odin back to stock. This will erase all your data, so either start from scratch or back up your apps and whatnot.
Bad news...I followed the instructions from your suggested video.
Put on SPH-D700-DG27-8Gb-REL.tar
Still...the Program Installer doesn't show up on the ACTIONS menu!
It goes Music, then Phone, the gTalk Settings....
Grrrrrrrrrr.
Any other ideas?
So are you trying to side load an application? Meaning you have "Unknown sources" checked under the Settings > Applications menu, and have an apk file to install.
The phone won't install that apk file? Or are you looking for something else to happen when you touch the file on the screen?
If none of the above, then I'm lost at what you're trying to accomplish.
Correct. I'm just trying to load up some apk's that I have on SugarSync/DropBox/SD Card/etc. Unknown Sources is checked.
When I click on the apk - it gives me the action menu. None of those actions is Package Installer. It used to be there, now it isn't. I've loaded all my programs this way in the past.
I tried Odin again and put on the EC05 tar file. Same result. No Package Installer listed in the actions menu.
Man, I just don't know. This is my first time reading of such a problem on the Epic forum.
Using Odin and that tar file gives you 100% stock Froyo. You can then install apk files once the "unknown sources" option is selected.
Did you re-install any other applications after using Odin or restore your data? That could be your culprit, which would mean you'd have to start from scratch (aka clean install).
Starting from total scratch.
It's a mystery.
The only thing I installed was SugarSync so that I could get to the files.
I even tried downloading ASTRO File Manager and using their installer that shows up on the actions menu. That used to work to install...but it doesn't anymore. It just sticks.
I guess maybe I need to go to the Sprint Store. Good thing I flashed her

Wow man... I'm glad you were able to assist the people affected, but the attitude/negative tone is unnecessary. I just saw the post requesting me [or anyone for that matter] to share the files.
I stated that using Odin to go back to stock may be best. He/She was discussing a problem with what many would consider a core function, being able to install an application. Finally, CWM often gives bad flashes, so in my mind it appeared to be a logical suggestion to start with 100% stock and work from there to find the culprit.
I did not share the APK files because I got busy, forgot about the post and missed the request.

"People" is the display name of contacts - there is no people.apk.
If you use Google to store your contacts, then you'll need Google contact sync. If you have a Google account, then you need Google account manager. But I'm guessing that that it's already installed or you wouldn't be able to access Play store.
TB does not backup system apps, only their data. You will need to manually copy the contact apks. Then, on your ROM where you don't have people, copy the apks to /system/data, boot into recovery and wipe cache and Dalvik, and reboot. You should have people back again.

If anyone can help me I'll post the zip file with everything going so we can have facebook sync back.
I'm using this guide to help me but its not very clear on the part I'm stuck on. Anyone able to help?
Once I get stock going I'll look at getting other ROM's going that currently don't support it.

You might try downloading a dump from a earlier version of android that supported Facebook Contact Syncing.
Then use a file compare tool like WinMerg to determine the differences and location of where "raw_contacts table: is_restricted" was inserted into supported versions.

Don't be a dummy like me...
If you intend to act stupid (like I did) and attempt this fix even though you aren't running a stock ROM, make sure you back up the ENTIRE "com.android.providers.contacts" directory... not just the files you are overwriting. If things go south, the whole directory can get deleted. I have no idea how this happened, but I assume it's the OS attempting to self-correct instead of exploding entirely.
Wish CyanogenMod would merge this. I would do this fix except for it would be overwritten after flashing a new CM build which happens several times a week.

MAKE SURE AS WITH ANY EDITING THAT YOU BACK UP ANY FILES YOU WILL BE MESSING AROUND WITH

Would this work for the JB version 4.2.1 as well?

Files from each version of android are different, you can try it and it may work just **Make Sure to Back Up before flashing**

I haven't used Facebook in a while, but last I checked, the sync option for FB could be found under system settings somewhere?

The setting is there but with Stock android on the nexuses syncing does not work, Google had removed the white listing in contacts, so files have to be edited to readd syncing support

I'm not getting that issue, I'm also rooted and using the cwm recovery. Try removing your Google account restart your phone, then re-add it, see if it works

Is your device time set correctly? Mine does this whenever I fiddle with the clock and the time ends up not matching that of the Gplay server...

Good call, I totally forgot about the time problem..... Looking at the screen cap time and the posting time.... Looks like his AM and PM is mixed up... Or he's 24 hours off.

Thanks guys for the reply but I resolved this issue by tampering the hosts file.
OP and credit goes to : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2273994
1. Download Total Commander from Play Store.
2. Install it in your Device.
3. Open Total Commander and goto Root of System. (/ )
4. Open the etc folder.
5. Find the file named "hosts", and hold it for 3 seconds. Choose edit file, and choose Total Commander Text Editor if prompted.
6. Delete everything and paste this at the first line: " 127.0.0.1 localhost". Copy it exactly, dont modify anything.
7. Save the file and overwrite if needed.

No, he's in GMT+8, that much is correct. (The forum displays your own timezone as the posting time.) But it does appear to be off by about 10 minutes.

Eh... Why would blocking your own local device help fix Google Play? Last time I set that on my laptop, my entire internet rolled over and died...

I never block, there was an entry added there automatically. No idea. So I removed and left only localhost then relaunched google play and everything worked smoothly

Yeah, that's what your host file should have in it. Not sure why there was something else there. My only guess is that you installed a none Google play app that messed with it (I would say don't use that app, it's up to no good).
