Just got a HTC Hero, and I've been trying to set up the email provider with my Yahoo and btopenworld accounts. Basically, the system seems to have a problem, saying that "check username and password" for Yahoo, and "server not responding" for BT. Well, I do know my entry is correct, so I wondered whether (a) some servers don't link to my phone, or (b) I need to set a particular 'setting' some place.

I was looking to see if it would be possible to get a little more out of my HTC Magic.
1. Is it possible, or is there an app that would allow me to connect to MS Exchange for email? I only need the mails, rather than calendar and contacts.
2. Can I tether with this phone? I use an Apple MacBook Pro that has both Bluetooth and USB connections.
3. Is there an app that would allow me to send files via Bluetoth?
I have my email settings to retrieve every 5 minutes, sometimes when I reply to a email I get the unable to send mail then I check the account settings and it says unable to communicate with the driod outoutgoing server, I restart my phone then it will work but this is not a solution long term. Sprint has restarted my phone too.

2 problems now. my main email that I used to access with the 'email icon' on the main screen [hotmail] will not connect any more and when I look at the phone software version it says 'version 2.1 update 1' Does this mean 2.2 has NOT been istalled? If so I'm pissed off as it took me about 2 hours in all
I have a co-worker who suddenly can not connect to her Exchange account via her phone. It mysteriously stopped syncing emails on Dec. 5, and since then the phone can not connect to the server. Error message reported is "Unable to connect to server." I even completely deleted the Exchange account from the phone and attempted to re-add it, but adding a new account failed with the same error message.
The weird thing is that the account worked perfectly fine before Dec. 5, and we can't think of anything that changed on the phone or on the server at that time. Meanwhile, other Android phones in our workplace continue to receive messages from the Exchange server, including my own Nexus 4 with the exact same server settings and another co-worker's Droid Razr.
The problem phone is a Samsung Galaxy S on US Cellular, running Android 2.3.6.
Firstly and most irritating is the fact i cannot download apps off the android marketplace on wifi or 3G. I click download but the progress bar just remains on 'starting download,and secondly i can't connect email accounts properly my hotmail connects and doesn't pick up my emails and i can't even connect my googlemail.com address.

View 14 Replies View RelatedI'm just looking at the Android's native IM app and wondering if it's possible to create new providers? I know other people have written seperate IM clients but it'd be great to add to list in the native IM app.
The 3 I'd like to work on is Facebook, MySpaceIM, Skype.
I did a search and found one person that had a similar problem but there was no suggestions that solved it. So I am starting a new thread.
I have been a long time Blackberry user and made the switch to Android just yesterday morning and really love it. I hope someone can help me with this issue.
I have noticed that a couple of times I get the email notification sound but there is no email. A couple of minutes later I receive an email with its own notification sound. Another time, I heard the notification sound AND the new email icon on the top left of the screen but there was no email. Several minutes later, the email was delivered to the handset.
The email accounts that I have set up on the handset are one yahoo with mail plus, and one gmail account. I believe the issues happened with the gmail account.
Everything is working fine, I can access the provider. The problem is that I want to create a demo version of my app and I want it to share the same content provider so when the user install the full version, the data is kept in sync. Also, it should be possible to install only the full or the demo version. Therefore, I have to include my content provider in both.Now, when I try to install both apps error message, obviously because both AndroidManifest declare the same content provider.Is there a way to tell in the Manifest that this content provider should be used only if it doesn't already exists ? Or another workaround ?A solution would be that the full version migrate the data from a demo content provider to the full version content provider, but I would rather avoid that.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a doubt regarding content provider.My doubt is I create a app1 that creates Content Provider and in second application(app2) i am using app1's content provider methods(like insert, update etc). It's working fine but i want to set some permissions in app1, so that if any other app wants to use that provider it must have to get this permissions(<uses- permissions) then only it should be able to use providers.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI am having trouble understanding content providers in Android. Do you use intents to call content providers as well as managed queries?
Also, an activity has an intent filter. The intent filter has a element which has a mimeType attribute. How does Android know which content provider this mimetype is referring to?
The tag in the manifest just lists an authority but not the full content_uri. Further, the content_uri is typically defined in an encapsulated class that seems to only consist of constants but no methods, so I don't see how that links over to the content provider class.
My application requires current location of the user. For this I have implemented the code and I am able to get the current location. The code tries to get the best provider first and then fetches location information. The problem is that the current location is returned from NETWORK_PROVIDER if GPS_PROVIDER is disabled. If both NETWORK_PROVIDER and GPS_PROVIDER are enabled then the best provider will be GPS_PROVIDER and this takes too much time to get the current location.
So, is it alright if we set the location provider as NETWORK_PROVIDER only so that it will not matter whether GPS_PROVIDER is enabled or not.
I want my app to be able to retrieve a fine location, but also to be able to get it's location as quick as possible. What I'm trying to implement is something like the way it works in maps, i.e. it gets a coarse location via network and then refines that location using GPS.
If I set the criteria to ACCUARCY_FINE it automatically tries to use GPS to get the location. The problem is that if a user is indoors then this may take several minutes, if it finds it at all. Is there an easy way to tell the manager to use network provider and then GPS, or will I have to do this myself? If so what's the best way to go about this? Will I need to thread it in some way?
I'm sorry if these questions have been answered already. I've found various location examples but none that seem to do what I'm asking.
I'm trying to get a list of the available cellular network providers. Unfortunately i can't find any service or class that might help me out :( Does anyone have an idea on how to manage this? It has to be possible since you can see the list when you go to the settings on your Android device..

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a plethora of data which is currently stored in 1000 different very small text files, I want to store this data in an SQ Lite database as I feel that this will be more space efficient and hopefully time efficient as I presume a database query is faster than opening and parsing a text file (please stop me now if this isn't the case!). The data does not need to be available to other applications and will be used internally only. My first question is whether or not to create a content provider anyway, is there any benefit to this? My second question is where to initialize the database, is it possible to ship an application with a database included already populated? Do I have to populate it in the on Create method of the SQ Lite Open Helper subclass? If I have to include the 1000 text files and read, parse and insert the data at inst all time I have a feeling this would be slow. Is it possible for me to populate the database now, dump it to a single file and then bulk insert from the file in the on Create method?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm considering switching from T-mobile to verizon for this phone. I was this close to getting the motocliq but this device seems to be much better as long as the keyboard is functional since I'm not even a social networker. How many of you are considering switching carriers for this phone and do you think its worth it?
Is it true there's a 30 day buyer's remorse period on verizon so if I just get it and don't like it for whatever reason, I'm safe to remain with t-mobile and not be committed?
Just found out that I don't need content providers if I don't need to share data with other applications. But since the examples I've seen all use content providers, I'm not sure how to proceed without them and populate activities with data derived from accessing my application's database directly.
