Sync HTC Mail to Gmail

[PaulWilks]

Ok, this is probably something relatively simple but I'm unsure how to do it (if its possible) How do I get my Gmail to come through my HTC Mail widget?

Many thanks in advance for indulging my probable stupidity.

Can you not use the Google Mail widget ?

Can you not use the Google Mail widget ?

I have a Gmail shortcut but not a widget on my Hero... is a widget downloadable?

When ypu click on the menu at the bottom left of the screen to bring up all applications, is the google mail app there ? If so just log press on it and you can add it to your homepage

There is a Google Mail shortcut, but not a widget. I'm wondering if it is possible to sync the funky HTC main widget to my gmail account.

yes i have it set up, my work and my gmail , two accounts, just go to set up account, put in your googlemail address, (full email) and password, and here are the server detials

• Google Gmail Incoming Mail Server (POP3) - pop.gmail.com (SSL enabled, port 995)

• Outgoing Mail Server - use the SMTP mail server address provided by your local ISP or smtp.gmail.com (SSL enabled, port 465)
  • Google Gmail Incoming Mail Server (POP3) - pop.gmail.com (SSL enabled, port 995)
  • Outgoing Mail Server - use the SMTP mail server address provided by your local ISP or smtp.gmail.com (SSL enabled, port 465)
  • HOPE THIS HELPS YOU OUT, the only problem is that gmail notifies you as well as htc, does anyone know how to turn of the original gmail notifier?

Oh you legend.... many many thanks!

Go to gmail on you phone, click menu, settings then disable notifications... I think that'll work
