Hi for various reasons I do not use the Gmail app.
I have tried to set gmail as active exchange on the Email app but "unable to find server". Is this only a problem on jelly bean?
The settings on the internet says Domain\Username: [blank]\username@gmail.com Password: password Server: m.google.com Check use SSL Uncheck use certificate
But it cannot find the server
Any ideas what's the problem?
[I am presuming if it can find the server it will push?]
Thanks
Apologies for poor typing standards when on Samsung Galaxy S4
Google have recently stopped supporting Exchange ActiveSync connections for GMail. They already support IMAP, which is a proper standard and should be push capable.
If you want to use the standard email app, turn on IMAP access in your GMail account and set up your phone to access it that way. This is also a good way to access your GMail account in a desktop mail client (e.g. Outlook, Windows Live Mail, Mozilla Thunderbird).
