all right guys, after tweaking for about 20 minutes, i am officially popping gmail.

as i know right now, this works with american t-mobile (-go figure, they have started to suk badly)

summary: you set up your tmobile account for the gmail pop service and the online tmobile will pop the gmail and then pop it to your phone through tmobile pop server.

go to gmail, enable pop.

go to tmobile and log in to MY T-MOBILE. go to SET UP MY EMAIL. (can also be found in the communication tools link right below the annoingly happy asian guy's picture)

configure a new mailbox using the pop information provided by gmail.
tmobile will verify access on the spot.
(disable alerts - as this sends you a text message that you have an email in your inbox. why would you want that if you receive the email to your phone? oh, that is right, there are people out there that cannot get email to their cellphones... just taking a moment here, i was there until last week)
anyway, if i would skipp the bs.

you need to configure your cellpohone email client to tmobile pop server something like:

E-mail Address: xxxx.xxxx@gmail.com
Mail Server (POP3): myemail.t-mobile.com
Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP): myemail.t-mobile.com
User ID: 904993xxxx:1
Password: Password OK

it was a bit slow in the beggining actually getting the email down to my phone, it took forever to get it after it actually arrived in my inbox, so, just wait, it will get there.

send few emails to yourself from your cellphone and reply to them
happy popping!

going out to meet a beauty from last night. ouch!
florida rocks!

ps. ofcourse, the picture is a curtesy of my new phone - se k750i.
and my stupid friend lowered the resolution when he was playing around earlier, otherwise, the pictures come out even better.

This works!

E-mail Address: me@gmail.com
Mail Server (POP3): myemail.t-mobile.com
Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP): myemail.t-mobile.com
User ID: 7########6:1
Password: YOUR GMAIL PASSWORD

whenever tmobile tried to send the settings to my w800, i got an invalid settings error message... when i tried to setup thre SE, i didn't know info to put in... email address, user id, password... i was using my tmobile email and passwords not my gmail info... also i wasn't putting the :1 at the end of the user info... so anyways.. set it up manually and i have mail....

wow this is great news that someone from the US has gotten GMAIL poppin to there phone. I did what you wrote and I am able to recieve e-mail but it takes forever to send. Do you have an approx time for how long it takes to send. I've tried a couple of times but I am really impatient!

Dude r u from Florida? If so what part, my fiancee and I are planning on moving to Orlando!

I was able to get gmail working with the myemail servers but it limits how big the email could be. I can't send 2mp pics at all.

I gave up and bought the bluetooth adapter for my pc and transfered the secure cert. to it and im finally using the real gmail servers using secure connection on my $5.99 plan.

Just make sure you disable any proxy in the email settings. The proxy will kill any file over a certain size. (around 300k i think)

well I finally decided to stick it out and wait, and it didn't send. Message said SEND FAILED. I don't know what I'm doing wrong, I have a SEw800. Please if you have any suggestions please help! and what is this certificate you are talking about? and how r u using gmails servers. I tried that before and sending failed because SMTP needs suthentication???

Thanks,
Foster

use profimail its faster

Posted by neox
why dont u create a Gmail settings on you K750 and skip the Tmobile BS.. that's why it's taking soooo long to get your emails..!!

i got mine setup straight to gmail .. and my emails get d-loaded very fast...!

if u need the settings let me know... otherwise, do a search on esato and u will see the thread....!

Posted by mightyfo
yes please I would like the settings, i've tried them before but I wasn't able to send messages because my phone doesn't not have smtp authentication. and it also took a lil bit to dl messages to my phone.

Thanks alot
Peace,
Foster

hey might:
u have a certificate issue!.. very easy to fix (threads in Esasto in case u still have probs).
u need to get a security certificate on your K750i (SSL/TSL).. go to Thwate.com and search for 'ThwateServicePremiumCA' certificate!.....
The search results will take u to a download link (accept agreement, etc,.) ... download the file and then BT to K750 ( i did it via MyphoneExplorer s/w)... Ur phone will recognize it as a certificate it will ask u to install, say 'yes'.

setup gmail.... then ur in biz....

Anyone get gmail to work on any of the Verizon phones?

Posted by mightyfo
neox,

I've tried to find the thawte certificate and I can't find it. I found it before but I wasn't sure if that was at all what I needed so I threw it away. I'm kickin' my own ass right now. but if you can find it for me please send me the link.

Posted by neox
@mightyfo:
here's the link: http://www.thawte.com/roots/

just click on 'Accept' (u dont need to fill out the form or anything).. It will ask u to save file... Save, unzip, and BT the security extension files (2) into your K750i ( make sure you download the PremiumCA certificate first.. then the second certificate..) Just read my earlier post if ur still having problems.. happy Gmailing!!!...



Posted by mightyfo
neox do you know how to install the certificateifi amnot able to BT to my phone.

Posted by mightyfo
fagetaboutit i got my gmail poppin'

Posted by MiK69
I've used BT to send ThawtePremiumServerCA.cer and ThawteServerCA.cer to my K750i (and accepted the install), but I still get the "The Server Certificate for TSL/SSL isn't issued from an approved issuer. Please contact your email provider" (translated from Swedish) error when trying to POP Gmail.

Posted by MiK69
Now it works, but I had to install https://www.geotrust.com/reso[....]cure_Certificate_Authority.cer and not the thawte cert

Posted by marvel2k5
Man, this certificate issue is driving me mad... I really want to access gmail using my phone. Is there anyway to install these certificates without bluetoothing them into the phone? I've tried to do a simple xml file and put in a server over internet to download the .cer files but the phone doesnt recognize them...

Neox, u said u used MyPhoneExplorer to transfer the files, did u mean over BT or cable? I dont see any BT option in MPE, how did u get it ?
