I was just wondering why there isn't a native gmail widget? It seems pretty logical that google would develop one. I have evil's sense which comes with a mail widget but it doesn't work very well and there are still two apps which means i get two notifications. If i turn off the gmail notification the mail widget app doesn't push the email very fast where as the gmail does.
Did you try contacting someone at Google and asking them. They would have more of an idea
Fair question, but you're asking the wrong people - all we can do is speculate...
There are a number of 3rd party Widgets though, depending on what you're looking for...

I've been wondering the same thing. I wish there was a Gmail widget like the mail in Sense. I like some of the features in sense, but don't have much use for most of their widgets.
What widgets do you prefer for Gmail that don't download everything a second time apart from Gmail.

Well, at least Google have finally decided to untie Gmail with Android by releasing Gmail updates on the market. At least we'll get more Gmail improvements more often.
With push email, new messages appear in your inbox as soon as they arrive. You'll always be up to the moment.

I have true push email on my SGS
my SGS always get the emails faster than Gmail itself
many times i see my SGS pop up an alert about new email, and me being logged into Gmail cloud on the browser don't see the email until a few manual refreshes after
also got thunderbird on IMAP4, so it should show up immediately, but SGS is always the first to pop up with the alert whenever i get a new email first

Don't be too surprised....they're bringing out all those stuff we've already enjoyed for quite some time to promote the Nexus S to the noobies.

Push email works for me as well, i get the email notification on my sgs before my office outlook.
Guys push email in SGS only works with gmail or exchange accounts. For other email service providers such as yahoo or hotmail, you need to use the samsung social hub app. Which I don't really like btw.
Please correct me if I'm wrong

yeah. gmail app pushes email to your phone. The default email app doesn't I don't think, I haven't gotten it working. But samsung apps have released a new app that's called Samsung Email (you can download through samsung apps) it pushes email for gmail, hotmail, yahoo, pretty much the big email providers.
hope that helps.

Is this 'Samsung email' different from the default email app (not Gmail) found in SGS?
I can't find it in Samsung Apps.

Yeah Samsung call it 'Social Hub' as mentioned earlier, i posted the apk in an earlier thread here:

It works really well, it makes any 'normal' email push email. Two things that let it down for me are, you are unable to select multiple emails (no check boxes) and you are unable to select your own alert tone.

it uses the system selected alert tone
so, yeah, there is no individual contact specific alert tone, but it is possible to select account specific alert tone
say if you have 5 or more different email accounts, each one can have its own ring tone... but i think that is because i installed some 3rd party add-ons to get that functionality, forgot which (rindroid?, ringalert?, handsend sms?, some other players?)
I installed that samsung email app and it is mzch better than stock one.. Much faster and that app makes galaxy s much better phone and fixes its big disadvantage. Thanks for the app..

Hello I just switched from HTC Desire (very good phone) to the SGSII (Better)...
And i am quite happy with my desicion. I have only two things that are a problem right now.
1. I am missing the Sense Mail widgets.
2. GPS Inaccuracy.
So my questions are:
1. Mail widget...
I am looking for a mail widget that binds to a specific account. So i have 4 email accounts and i want to bind the widget to one of them.
So if I want to use all mail accounts I will have to place 4 widgeds and configure them for each maill account. And preferebly they should show the subject.
2. GPS inaccuracy in Navigon
I was driving a road and where my desire had pinpoint accuracy, the Sammy thought I was about 60 meters to the right, and started to bark all kind of instructions to get back to the road (where i already was on)....
So anybody can help me? (Need mail widget the most) the widgets from launcher pro are what i need but I wat to jump to the correct mail client (that shows the message as it should be) Launcher pro has it's own mail renderere and that's not what i want.
The GPS in SGS2 works very well for me, so that is not a general issue.
But maybe the circumstances were bad at the time, you can only compare with Desire if you had it with you at at the same time, because satellites are moving and weather is changing etc.
Did you have big buildings close to the roads? That can cause disturbances.
Do you have A-GPS enabled? (enable "use wireless networks" in Location settings menu).
Can you explain why you would not want to push all your different email accounts from where-ever to one Gmail account and only use that one?! There should be plenty of gmail widgets on the market.

1. Hotmail is my privat email.
2. Exchange is corporate with required pin
3. Gmail = rubbish mail....
So I only want to be notified when I receive a Private or corporate mail....
and if i look, i want to see private or corporate depending on what I am doing.
Maybe I am a bit old, but i don't want a unified inbox. I want it organized as it was on my HTC.
I could do thi son my HTC without rooting and it worked like a charm....
I Really like the speed and screen of the SGII but i really do miss my Sense widgets...
I have spend a lot of money in the appstore opnly to get this functionality, I tried a lot, Pure Messenger widget and everything... Needed root, but could not read my exchange mail, uninstall and find the mail app broken, had to flash (now on KG2)
But a HTC has this functionality out of the box with no extra charge.....
How is Gmail rubbish when you can have all those corporate mail and hotmail and whatnot in there and they are not unified but you can access them separately via the gmail app? To me it seems that you are just stuck to 90's
Edit *i have my own business mail account there (own domain), my second work (work for another company) mail there (2 domains) and my personal gmail there. I also have multiple different email addresses from my own business there unified for a seperate account. All organised and working like a ****ing BOSS!

Well are you telling me that it is possible to have google sync with exchange and get contacts mail, calender and all the good stuff and not have the lockstreen policy ?
I am not old fashioned, but I use hotmail for mail and google for searches.....
No need to give them all info......
But..... If it is possible to have google read my Excahnge account so i do not have that dumb policy enforced on my pone i would consider a switch.
And i guess you are telling me it's possible ?......

There is an app called touchdown for exchange mail, works pretty well and you won't be enforced to set a pin to the lock screen. You just need to set a pin to open the app.

Well........
Do i get my contacts, my calender and stuff also in g-calender, i have been looking a bit and i see no way to get an automated sync between our corporate Exchange Server and Gmail.....
Not everything is as simple as you think.... Oh wait..... for you it probably is..... (but that's probably due to a lack of processing power.....)
If I would give you 1% of my thoughts your brain would probably overload....
Now buddy, be a real budddy and show me how it's done...... ( and then i will say you were right and apologize ) otherwise, go and bother some other thread with that 1 brain cell of yours !

Its just for exchange email, it can sync your exchange calender, tasks and everything else exchange related.
I doesn't work as messenger, just email.

I tried it and I still could not read the Hotmails.....
So Installed KG2 firmware, rooted it, wiped etc.....
And now Pure messenger is able to read the default mail accounts so my problem is solved.
But thanks for your help anyway !

Has the native email app changed since the S7? Anyone know if it has true threaded messaging?
I hope so. I have tried aquamail and nine email and they both suck compared to stock.
Really? I LOVE nine. Find it amazing but always happy to use stock when it makes sense. What don't you like

I wasnt bashing it. It graphically beautiful. I just prefer the options, menus, and folder structure of stock. Nine was great on battery consumption compared to stock.
Nine has been my choice of app for about 2 years now. It's what got me off of HTC devices (since I very much liked the HTC stock mail app).
+1 for Nine. Been using it for nearly 3 years and it has been flawless.

The stock apps (including e-mail) are the only ones fully integrated with Gear. They're also better integrated with the rest of Samsung's ecosystem (Scrapbook, S Note, Bixby). The S7 nougat e-mail client was a modernized version of the Note7's. I'm assuming since it was just updated it'll carry over and get a new "lines" icon in keeping with the rest of the S8's updated aesthetics.
I'm coming from the native iPhone email app and think it's rubbish. Is the native Samsung one any good? If not what would you all suggest? I can't remember what app I used to use on my htc.

I personally like it. It's clean and easy to navigate. I use it with Exchange and its a great e-mail client. If you're looking for something more integrated check out Samsung Focus.
I have 3 email accounts. Can it handle them and are they easily identified?

Does Samsung Focus offer polling, not pushing, and true threaded messaging?

There is an actual e-mail app on the Gear that syncs with the native phone e-mail app. So you can read messages, mark them read, mark them unread, and reply to them. The Gear app lets you scroll through your entire inbox and has an unread message counter. If you delete an e-mail on your Gear it deletes it on the phone and vice versa. The mail app on the Gear is literally an extension of the full-fledged app on your phone. The Samsung Gear and phone messaging apps have the same level of integration.
Side question anyone know how to move the galaxy native email data to the sd card? I have to carry a pile of email in my pocket. I used to use touchdown so I could relocate the data, but I've switched to hte native app. It used to stink on older devices, but it was fine on the 7 and the integration with other apps is so much more convenient.
I also prefer the stock app. I do have an issue with it, I can't seem to get "push" settings. I have an icloud email address and had push on my iPhone. Is there anyway to get push on this app? Will forwarding to him gmail and using that work?

In the default email app settings there is a menu item called "view" under which you have 2 options "standard" and "conversation". The conversation option attempts a threaded view although I am not able to comment on how well the implementation is as I don't use threaded view.
does anyone know why emails from gmail on the native email app (s8+) do not stay deleted? They keep popping up, when marking as read, it does do that fine. (Settings: Gmail Auto, as items are received)
Messages not downloading completely
I just got a Galaxy S8+, and I can't figure out how to get the email app to load the rest of a message. There is one particular sender that I get daily messages from, and for some reason their messages never load completely. On my old S5, I just swiped up, and the app loaded the rest of the message. In the new app, that has no effect.
Any suggestions?

Try this. Not sure if it is the answer to your issue but give it a go.
Open the email app>menu>click the gear icon>click your email account>scroll down until you see the option "limit retrieval size">select "no limit.
