Android :: Save Gmail Attachments Directly To SD Card
Nov 15, 2009
I use gmail. I get attachments. I am trying to find a means to be able to save these attachments directly to SD card. For example,
jpgs/png/gif, not a problem. docs/xls/txt, I can peview, but not save them. problem is if I get a 3g2 file, I cannot preview or save the file. Sometimes I get videos from client's phones and I can nor longer view them remotely. With my winmo phone, I was able to at least detach them to the SD card. Bottom line, is there ANY way, app or otherwise, to just simply have a "download" button?

Not sure if I am being an idiot but is there anyway of saving attachments from the gmail app? I can open them but cannot see an option anywhere to save it? Also if forwarding an email is there anyway of not including the quoted text?

I sent myself an attachement - sent to my gmail account. I can see the email, can see the attached file's name. Can't do a damn thing with it! Can't even SAVE to phone... wtf? Am I missing something? I mean - it's about as stupid as having segregated "Gmail" and "Email" apps on a single phone.

My phone will no longer save email attachments to my SD card. Photos and movies will save to the card, but attachments that used to go there not longer go. I get the message: "Unable to save attachment to SD card" after choosing "save". I have previous attachments there, but new ones won't go. Any solutions?

An attachment in gmail can't be saved. It can be opened with the preview button and the internal player will start play, but there is no way I can save that mp3 file.

Is there a setting that I'm not seeing to default pictures to the sd card? Or a simple way to mass move all pics to the sd card?

I've got a 16gb micro SD card, and other than music and some pictures i've not really got a lot on it. My internal memory has almost been used up though, and I think this has something to do with my text messages. I was wondering if there is a way to directly save them to my micro SD card, instead of the internal memory? One of my friends, who also had a Hero, had too many text messages and her message app wouldn't open and kept crashing. I don't really want this to happen to my phone.

I've developed an application which has a service and boot completed receiver. The boot completed receiver schedules the service to be executed after every 7 minutes. The boot completed receiver saves its context in a public static variable which is then accessed by service whenever it is scheduled by scheduler. The service first gets the IMEI number of phone and then saves it to a file if it is not already saved. Everything worked smoothly but then i logged into market place and after that the scheduled service was not able to get IMEI number directly , neither was it able to open the file which had already been created and it keeps on throwing nullpointer exception for both direct IMEI retrieval and attempt to open file.................

I wonder if one of you kind souls could help with a couple of probs I'm having with my HTC Desire.
The first problem is with text messages with photos attached. I see "Slideshow- 1 slide" but when I try to view it, I just see the text that was included in the message on a black background. If I go to save the slide, I check the box and then "Done" and get "Unable to save attachment".
And secondly, I can't seem to get Picasa to work. I select a photo on the phone, go to Share With, then Picasa and it asks me to login to my google account. I do this, and then it just goes back to the picture without uploading or doing anything! It's driving me mad!

Is this possible? Seems like a simple matter of just clicking on each picture, for example, but it only says "Choose one" at a time.

When I try to view or save e-mail attachments, I get the message "Sorry, an error occurred. Please try again. If the problem persists, there may be a problem with the file you are trying to access." I even tried to view or save e-mail attachments that I could access before and save and they are not even working.

When I get my activity chooser for my ACTION_GET_CONTENT Intent there is applications I don't want to be there, like the ones who will first create content and then pass the URI to me, like the Voice Recorder. When you use Gmail and try to attach a file you will only see the applications/activities that picks data from your SDCard like Gallery, and in my case Astro (file manager application).
So my question is, what kind of Intent does Gmail use for their Attach? Here is my code, something must be missing since I get applications like Voice Recorder and so on.
Intent action = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_GET_CONTENT);
action = action.setType("*/*").addCategory(Intent.CATEGORY_OPENABLE);
startActivityForResult(Intent.createChooser(action, "Upload file from..."), 1);

If I go to AndroidForums on my phone, and I long-press on the logo, I have the option to save it.However, if I go to a direct link like http://imgur.com/OLnXZ.jpg and it just loads the image, how do I save it now? I long-press on the image and it doesn't do anything. I am rooted and running a custom ROM, but I don't remember being able to do this on stock.

I've been using my Droid for about a week now and would like some suggestions or help with three frustrations I have with the default Gmail app in 2.0:
1. The Reply/Forward buttons are all the way at the bottom of the message - which is very frustrating when you're trying to respond to a long email thread that has a billion embedded replies. How are you dealing with that, other than scrolling all the way to the bottom? Shouldn't reply/forward buttons be available on-screen at all times? (The hardware option button doesn't present "reply" or "forward" among the popup choices, either).
2. When I forward mail with attachments, I can't predict whether the attachments will forward or not. So far, it seems like they don't go through more often than not. Is there a setting somewhere I need to throw to make attachments work reliably?

The only options that appear to be available to me with a picture attachment in a multimedia message is to make the picture a wallpaper image or to associate to a contact. Is there a way to save the picture to the memory card?

Is there any way to download attachments from the Gmail app rather than going to the browser version? This is kinda annoying as I have to either login to my gmail through the browser or forward the mail to my other email account.

my Android device: Everytime I add a new contact it's randomly saved to one of my two Google accounts that are synched with my phone, but I want it to be saved directly(locally) to the phone. I've browsed through all the settings menus but couldn't find a solution.
Phone: HTC One(32GB),HTC Sense 5.5

Whenever someone sends me a pic or any other kind of file, my Evo's gmail just sits there swirling and swirling. Takes minutes to download anything. Is there some setting I'm missing or is this a broader issue?

How can you download attachments on your GMail onto the SD card (for opening later), rather than just previewing the damn things? Sense allows you to do this but stock for some reason, does not

all the customization Android allows Google didn't create a Gmail App that makes it impossible to save attachments to your SD card/internal memory. I have tried searching around here and it seems the EVO folks are stuck as well. Would Google really stop us from doing something so essential? And I know you can in HTC Mail, but I have notification issues with HTC Mail that I can't deal with (like the notification sound continuing perpetually when a new email arrives).
