Motorola Droid : Kang And Exchange
Jul 14, 2010
I recently rooted my phone and am quickly turning into a ROM addict.I'm currently running Kangerade 5.0.9 with the blue theme. Previous to this I was on Kangerade 4.0.7 with the Green theme. Prior to switching over to version 5, I had no problems linking to my work Exchange account.Now whenever I try to set it up I get a message stating "Unable to open connection to server."As I mentioned, this has always worked before.I downloaded the demo version of Touchdown and it can connect just fine to my server. When upgrading from 4.0.7 to 5.0.9 I wiped data and cache.Any ideas?

My recurring events (classes at college) were set in January 2010. Droid syncs easily with corporate exchange server. All is well. Now, events occuring after DST here in Eastern zone are ahead by 1 hour. My 9:00 class on Tuesday March 9 is now showing as 10:00 on Tuesday March 23. I called our IT folks and they suggested it is a Droid issue. I called Verizon and they were stumped. Verizon tech called Motorola tech. I was told that this is a Google issue and there is no fix (unlike the old Windows mobile fix) and he was very sorry. Anyone have suggestions? Motorola tech suggestion was that I need to reset the events that occur after DST.

Are any of you using MS Exchange at work hosting all of your contacts? I currently have a WinMo device and all my contacts are realtime synced with the Exchange server at work. Can I do this in Android 2.0 or will I be stuck using Gmail's contacts?

I am having trouble deleting the "trash" in the exchange e-mail account. Does anyone know how to do this other than checking each individual message and clicking on the delete? Is there a delete all type action?

Today I finally went down to Best Buy to go and exchange my phone. The guy who did it was glad to do so. I was able to keep my same SD card. After the process was finished (in which I also bought a new car mount), I proceeded to browse the rest of the store.
I went and sat in the Studio room for a while to play with the phone, I noticed it had a loose screen. It was a very slight movement, but highly noticeable. The thing would kind of 'tap' every time I hit the back button. With the phone closed, you could push or sandwich the 2 parts together and see it smush and retract. I'm telling you it was very small but noticeably or else i would not be typing about this. My dusty phone that I had just exchanged, purchased on the launch day, was never loose and never 'tapped'.
Now I was debating for about 30 minutes weather I should go and try and get another one or not.
After a while I started obsessing over it and was making my screen go tappity tap tap tap......so I decided to go back and see about exchanging the phone. I hadn't even left the store yet.
There was a new guy at the counter, and I told him my issue. He pulled out 2 more boxed phones and also his own Droid from his pocket. He told me his did that too, and then we started comparing the phone i had to the new ones. I found on that didn't tap or wobble or anything. I asked if I could get that one and he said he had to go ask his manager. So he went and came back and said his manager told him that it isn't a defective phone and they cant return it. Then I said "what about if you showed him both of these phones?" You could very obviously tell that this new one was much tighter than the one I had got. So he said he would try, and went and asked his manager again. He came back and told me his manager wouldn't let him and that he says "all of them will eventually become loose." Almost exactly. Then I asked if I could talk to the manager.
I am not one to cause a scene but this was making me mad. I wasn't getting loud or anything but I was trying to get a different answer than "no". So the manager comes and starts saying bulls**t about how the slider mechanism needs room and that's how all slider phones are blah blah. This was the same guy who sold me the phone on launch day. I tried to explain to him that my old phone i had exchanged due to tons of dust under the screen was never loose and has been TIGHT since I bought it on launch day. He then showed me on the new phone I wanted to get that it also clicks, if you press on the OTHER side of the phone by the search key. I kept trying to convince him that it is RIGHT IN FRONT OF HIM. The phone I had been given is LOOSE and the one I want is NOT. But I wasn't successful. He wouldn't change his mind no matter what. I told him I'd rather have my old phone back and he said he could do that. Then he got out my old phone because it was still there and he tried to convince ME that it was clicking on the search key side. I was so mad. He wouldn't give me another new phone but he would give me my old defective one back.
Somewhere in this conversation he also made a comment about "because you keep your phone in your pocket" referring to the dust under the glass on my old phone. Are you f*****g kidding me? Who doesn't put their phone in their POCKET???
anyway, I kept the phone I was given with the "tap" screen. When the slider is open, the screen also rocks forward and back a tiny noticeable amount.My dusty phone that I returned had no wobble or "tap" at all. I swear I am not lying. I felt really bad after he turned me down after I tried all I could to prove him wrong.
Sorry this was so long but I had to share... I plan on going to a different best buy and trying again, this time maing sure I check which phone they give to me. Or I might just snap my droid in two and go and return it for a new one. I have the Black Tie warranty thing. If anybody actually reads this whole story, what do you think I should do? And am I in the wrong here? This guy basically made me feel like an a**hole for even asking about it.
EDIT: wow and I just realised that the speaker on the back of my phone is totally DENTED. I am starting to question weather Best Buy are actually selling used droids as new....

I just installed Froyo on my X, but now I have this annoying issue with my exchange account and having to enter a pin? I can't seem to disable it. If i go to security, there's an option under security called Change screen lock. I go to that, but the option for None and Pattern are both grayed out saying Disabled by remote phone administrator. what is that all about and how do I get rid of this? It's annoying and I don't need it.

I know this is the Droid forum but it has a lot of activity and I'm using the Droid, so I figured I would ask here. I am trying to get K-9 Mail set up for MS Exchange. I got it set up with the built in Email client with no problem, but really like K-9 better. It always fails on the outgoing settings screen. Incoming sets up fine, but the outgoing fails no matter what I try. Does anyone have any tips or suggestions?

My 30 days is up in the next few days, and I have some dust under the screen. Now this is really the only problem I have with my droid, so I was wondering if its even worth exchaning for another one or will it just happen again as long as its pocketed? Did motorola fix this problem by chance with newer models?

I have 2 other corporate accounts synced up and working great. However, the new company that I now have an email with is giving me some issues. I can create an account without error, but there is no folders and blank inbox. I get no errors. Any ideas? Anything special with Exchange 2010? This is the first 2010 that I have tried to sync my phone to.

I upgraded to 2.2 in hopes that I can get activesync to work without using touchdown.I'm still seeing the same issues as 2.1 that is, the calendar will sync, I can send email but can not receive email.with a Droid 1 running 2.2, everything works fine.I would imagine the email app is the same between the two phones.Anyone else have activesync problems on 2.1 on the X but got it to work fine after upgrading to 2.2?

I've read in many of the forums that one of the reasons for the official Froyo release for Droid X is problem with Exchange. Does the 2.2 leak from a month ago have a problem with Exchange?

Droid frg22d update stops syncing with exchange 2010 - Verizon Wireless Community. Apparently I'm not the only one with elevated frustration. Short version of the story:
- Spent hours on the phone w/Moto & Verizon explaining that my OG Droid will no longer connect to ActiveSync w/ Exchange 2010 SP1.
- Verizon & Moto both admit problem.
- Moto says they're working on it. Verizon says to pay $44.95 a month and it will work.
- If I hear one more "supervisor" tell me that it's my problem, and to either pay more, or use TouchDown ($20 app that sucks by the way) I am going to start a class action. Yes, I have the money, and no, I'm not bluffing.
- Please post your woes on this forum as I am starting a case # with the BBB on this matter and I need as much ammo. as possible.

I didn't do an exhaustive search, but I can't find the answer. I have been using exchange email since day 1 and no problems. Well yesterday, it started to do a force close when I click to open an email. I can synch and view the headers without any problems, just can't click on the email. I have rebooted, hard shut off, and done *228, and nothing has worked. Gmail works just fine.

I just updated to 2.2 (Sapphire1.0.0) from the Sapphire 0.8.4. Everything is cool, except my work email which is an exchange account wants to give my email server a bunch of security permissions I am not comfortable with. Has anyone else had this issue, and is there a "work around" for it?

I've been testing the Moto Droid and the Droid Eris and there are some pretty big shortcomings on both IMO. The Exchange support on the Eris is working much better for me than the built in 2.0 App on the Moto Droid. Does anyone know what App HTC is using for this and if there is any way to get it on the Moto Droid? I also like the mail widget that HTC has supplied. If it wasn't for the pitiful battery life one the Eris I would just stick with it.

So, I am having issues syncing exchange like I noticed some others as well. I am using a hosted exchange service, I don't think it really matters so much but they say it should work. They even tell you how to do it.
The issue I have though is I can send messages, my calendar syncs, but for some reason not my inbox. Has anyone else come across this?

A buddy at work got an Incredible and he entered email address and PW and everything was set up for him automatically, full email/contacts/calendar sync, PIN lock/wipe set up.I was looking through some of the screen shots of the Incredible Exchange support, and frankly, Exchange support on the Incredible kicks the Droid's a** in this area.Image Gallery: Verizon HTC DROID Incredible; Functions and Applications | ZDNet Photo Gallery I'm impressed. HTC must have done a ton of work in this area, assuming that the basic exchange functionality in 2.1 on the Incredible is the same that comes w/2.1 on the Droid.If that support could be ported to the Droid (either as an entire ROM, or just the exchange support sliced off) that would be amazing.
