Maybe you could tweak your Gmail settings. Advanced, may be.


i have gone through all the advanced settings but i think that none apply to this problem.

sussed it.
set the phone to download subject only.
if then you read the complete message it will deleat the complete message on the next send /recive but the subject only messages stay on the phone.

Sorry about that guys False alarm. Turns out the automatic GPRS settings that you can get sent to your phone from SE.com aren't the best if you're on Vodafone in NZ like me

I went to vodafone.co.nz and got the right GPRS settings and it works fine now Can send and receive! Wo0t!!

Although it is a bit slow... Is it supposed to be quite slow? Maybe around 40 sec to connect to server and receive mail and around 50 sec to send?

Cheers for the awesome tut guys!

Just make sure if you're in NZ like me, go with vodafone.co.nz's GPRS setup

I still can't connect after setting everything correctly and installing all 3 certificates. I get a server not found error when sending an email.
I can download emails using POP3 to my PC with the same settings though.
I've also updated the firmware to R1KG001.

Hi People,

First post, found these forums last week while looking for info on my new phone, they're pretty good

I have gmail working on k810i, (used the settings here )
but I'm having one problem, my phone only has the oldest 300 messages in my account viewable. I can "view older" messages, but none newer.

I have 1100 messages in my account....theres no need to delete them due to the size of the account

But how do I get it to only display newest items??

Try the setting below, it worked on my K800i.

Connect: GPRS
Email address: username@gmail.com
Protocol: Pop3
Incoming server: pop.gmail.com
Username: username@gmail.com
Password: *****
Outgoing server: smtp.gmail.com

Now go to Advanced setting:
Encrytiption - Incoming: SSL
- Outgoing: TLs
Outgoing username: username@gmail.com
Outgoing password: *****
Incoming Port: 995
Outgoing port: 25 or 465 (mine works on 25)

Good luck. I have the TMO USA T-Mobile Web.

Thanks for the tips guys, working great on my K810i.

I was having problems sending, until I put in my username and password for outgoing, now all is fine. Thanks especially to Chrisbpr for the tip about subjects only, otherwise the mails just dissappear each time you do a send/receive.

Cheers!!

M

Do those figures about Gmail setup work everywhere and in every SE phone?

I also tried configuring my Gmail account on my Sony Ericsson K800i but it is not working. I believe I entered and configured the right settings but still it is not working. I will actually start to connect and find the server but in the end, it will just say "Server not found." I am actually from the Philippines. We have several network providers here like Smart and Globe. I actually tried both but neither of them worked. Gmail only works on my phone if I'm gonna use the Gmail app that I downloaded. It only works on Smart but not on Globe. I think the reason why it is not working is because of our network providers here. Anyone from the Philippines here that is able to make Gmail work on Sony Ericsson K800i?
