I recently flashed the [25 February 2009] HyperDragon IV Lite. That went smoothly and is running well. However, I have an email issue to which I haven't been able to find a solution.
The problem is of my own making. I had backed up data before flashing the ROM. After finishing the install, I tried to set up email accounts, but was having an issue with my AT&T account - a whole different matter.
So, after being unable to download email, I decided to restore the backup I'd done. I assume since I'd flashed a new ROM, the following problem occurred.
I can see the email from my personal account in the TouchFlo interface; however, it isn't listed as an account in the accounts list and I can't download new mail or open an inbox. I also can't create the account now since the Tilt thinks it's already been created.
I have no way to delete the account since it's not listed in the account list and can't create a new one for this email address. Additionally, my exchange server was restored and I have the same problem there; except for the fact that I'm getting new email. However, I have a gap of a couple days I can't download because I have no control over the account. It shows in the account list but can't be deleted or changed.
So...does anyone have a good solution to this? A way to remove the accounts so I can start from scratch maybe???
I very much appreciate any help I can get with this.
Thanks,
GT
You can try this, I have used it before to clean out phantom email accounts

Thanks for the help. It fixed the Bellsouth to the degree that I could delete it and start over. I still can't manage to delete the Exchange Server account. The options simply aren't available when I attempt to use them. Still working on that one.
Thanks again, I appreciate it.

I ran this program a couple times more, and it finally let me delete the sync relationship and email associated with this exchange server account.
I've been able to reestablish this relationship with exchange online and setup the account correctly. So, both accounts have been corrected.
I appreciate the help very much.
Thanks Again,

I put one of my AOL accounts onto my Tilt using AT&T xpress mail, and I want to remove it now because that account is just a bit too busy (spam) and it's not as important as my main email address. Plus I can always use wap.aol.com to check it anyway.
I go into messages and highlight the account and choose delete and nothing happens.
I went back into xpress mail and theres no option for removal.
How can I get this account off my phone?
Can you remove xpressMail from your installed programs? Or was it part of your ROM?
I was just looking to get rid of the account it created, not the program itself, but if I have to I could delete the program, it's listed in remove programs area.
Yes, you cannot delete the account without removing the program. If you wanted to set up another account, you remove the software, then re-install the software and go thru the account setup again.
BUT A WARNING: make sure you have deleted your XpressMail account online BEFORE you remove the XpressMail software from your phone. Otherwise, its possible you will get a series of SMS "pings" that will not stop and can come at you as often as 10 a minute. Basically, log in to you Xpress Mail account online and tell it to stop sending you email (or any other notification), then delete the account. Then remove the software.
I cant seem to find an online option for deleting the account. There's an Xpress Mail Professional Edition registration/login area on AT&T's site but I dont see anything for the personal edition.
How do I go about canceling the account online before I delete the program?
Its been a while since i did it. I don't remember how I did it. If I happen to find it, I'll post it.
EDIT: I used personal edition also. Basically, log in here: https://xpressmail.cingular.com/subscriber/login.stp
and there should be an option to remove your accounts. This is in essence deletes your account.
If this doesn't work for whatever reason, or you start getting the SMS msgs when you remove the software, refer to my posts (esp. the last one) here:

I think I managed to do it from the phone though. I went into xpress mail settings and I choose the option to remove all account data (removed all emails from the account) and then I choose the "Re-Register" option, which deletes the account completely and then walks you through setup again. I choose that but after the account was deleted I just exited the program instead of recreating the account.
cool, glad u got it worked out. i just know myself and others had issues.

so my question is what if you removed the Xpressmail software before you remove your email, how do you stop/remove your email from Xpressmail afterward? will it automatically remove after a certain time?
all my emails just disappeared when i sent an email today???? even the ones i have not read. the only emails that are still there are sent items??? does anyone else have this problem? gmail has been working fine for about a month and half since i got my tilt.
the emails are still saved when i use my pc and go to gmail. i got a smartphone cause i need mobile email. this really defeats the purpose.
sorry if this is a duplicate topic. but if someone can help me out that would be great. -BILL
By default, I believe your last 3 days worth of email is stored on the phone. Perhaps the email was older then 3 days. You can change that in the email setup. Hope this helps.
Gmail works much better as imap versus pop3
I was having some strange problems with gmail when I initially set it up on my Tilt. By default, when you setup a new gmail account, the wizard sets it up as a pop3 account. This is how I had mine setup at first, and it worked inconsistently.
I then set it up again, but this time manually configured the account, selecting imap as account type. You may need to check the setup of your gmail account on a pc to verify that imap is enabled. It will also give you the settings that you need to configure the Tilt.
Since setting this account up as in imap type, it has been extremely reliable.
I'm running CM9 Nightly (8/8/12). I obviously need to sign into my gmail account in order to use the play store. However, I don't want to sync anything from that account. The reason is that the tablet is shared by the family and I don't want anyone to accidently send e-mail from my account. I also don't want everyone reading my e-mails. After I signed it I went to accounts & sync and turned off syncing with google. However, my e-mail is still in the gmail app. I tried clearing cache and data on the gmail app, but that didn't work either. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Is there any way to avoid this?
Should I create a new gmail account like 'ryanDONTSYNC' in order to have something to log into that doesn't have e-mail / contacts / calendar items?
Thanks,
Ryan

Read this thread. I think it answers your question.

Hello,
I am hoping someone can help me out. I have my work email setup on my phone using their webmail address. If I use the standard address, i am required to have Maas360 installed, which is not an option with me being rooted. Anyways, if I have the email program I use, which is either Nine or Mail Wise, setup for ActiveSync, my business server will catch it and block me. So, I have to setup the email app to scan for new emails every X minutes.
The problem I am running into, is I did not know that I had to have ActiveSync turned off, so now my device is banned when using Nine mail. So, I tried the same with Mail Wise, and got banned again. Now, on my third app, AquaMail, I have realized the problem, and its working great. However, I would prefer to use Nine mail. When trying to go back into Nine and recreate my account, i get an error that my device is blocked. I get the same error on Mail Wise. Both list a different Device ID. NineXXXXXXX and MailWiseXXXXXXXX. Is there a way to change this ID? I tried creating a new ID in Titanium Backup and that didn't change the IDs in the mail apps.
Thanks to anyone who can help!
I have a Pixel 5 that I've been using Outlook on because I hate the gmail client, which has been working fine until now, when I'm trying to add a new Exchange account. I'm having two issues that may be somewhat related or not. As part of moving to the new server, I had to remove my old account. Before doing so, I moved all of my contacts from that account to the device. When I selected them all and then selected 'Move to another account', I was given the choice of moving to the device or to google. As I DO NOT want want my contacts in google, I moved them to my device. I then removed my old account, and proceeded to try to set up Outlook for my new account, which I end up getting 'The connection to your mail server times out. Please check your mail settings.'. The settings are correct, and other mail apps (gmail, nine, etc) work fine. Only Outlook refuses. About the only thing I've been able to find is Microsoft claiming it's because TLS 1.0 and/or 1.1 are enabled or it's a certificate issue. Well, it's not. The certificate is proper and trusted, and only TLS 1.2 is enabled on the server, 1.0 & 1.1 are disabled. Microsoft 'testconnectivity' site confirms that all is proper and functioning, including activesync.
I more or less gave up on Outlook for now, although if someone knows something I haven't found that'll make it work, that would be appreciated, however, at least for now, I decided to give Nine a shot, which may be a viable option. But that's where my other issue comes in. When I moved all of my contacts from my old account to my device, I was given the option of moving to my device or to my gmail account. Now, with my contacts on my device, when I select them all and try to move them, the only option is the gmail account. The 'Contacts' from the Nine app show up in the list of accounts when I go to select what account I want 'Contacts' to look in, and when I move a contact into my Exchange contacts, it shows up on my phone, and if I try to move the contact synced from Exchange via Nine, it give me the device and gmail options, but the phone refuses to give me an option to move my contacts that are on the phone anywhere other than gmail. Does anyone have any ideas why?
Thanks
Just to add - I dug out my old HTC phone and charged it up to do some further testing... using it's 'Exchange Activesync for HTC Sense' (which, in my opinion, is probably the best, most straightforward e-mail client I've ever used on an android phone), it works PERFECTLY. No stupidness, syncs things as expected, contacts and all. I set my account up on an older ipad that doesn't run the latest ios and thus won't run outlook, but with the native app, works perfectly. But my Pixel doesn't seem to know what the heck it wants to do. It seems like everything other than 'Outlook for Android' and my pixel knows what it should be doing and just does it, but my pixel is just out there running circles in the cornfield..... I also saw some bit where I could select WHICH contact lists to sync where there were more than one in the account, but I haven't been able to find that again, and have moved all 'contacts' folders out into a PST so that it's not trying to sync all of the different contacts folders when it does decide to sync something.
