Android email app review and why I'm using the standard email application

Android email application review and why I'm using the Standard email application

I'm going to concentrate on the three major email applications that I know of for Android Standard Email, Enhanced Email, Touchdown by Nitrodesk.  

First I would like to explain this is only my quick thoughts about the product about my viewpoint, I may not be correct in all of my assumptions below.  

My setup consists of an HTC EVO 4G running on the Sprint network.  I'm currently running Cyanogen Mod Nightly's.  I'm also evaluating only the Active Sync Exchange Server connections for Exchange 2003 and 2007.  I'm not using any POP or IMAP connnections.

1. First I will start with NitroDesk Touchdown pro's and cons

Pro's:

• Sync's all content with many nice options.

•  Very reliable sync

• Has a tablet edition of the software

• Supports email encryption

Con's

• Costs $20

• Does not sync calendar with built in Android calendar application.  You have to use the touchdown application to view the calendar.

• Does not sync Outlook Notes

2. Second are the Enhanced Email pro's and cons

Pro's:

• Has a some nice options

• Will automatically download the pictures, but will only do it when you go into read it. 

? If you ask me it should download the pictures before I view it because by the time I get to reading the email and deleting it the pictures still haven't load… Junk if you ask me

Con's:

• Costs $10 (Amazon App store had it for the free app of the day in November)

• Does not sync contacts properly for the 6 months that I used it

• Does not sync when an email has been read to the server from the phone.

? Just a note that the Standard email app is free and does these two items above

• The speed of the application is very slow compared to the Standard email app and Touchdown

• Does not mark the emails as read after reading each email on mobile device.  So if I delete the item, I have to go into outlook and mark all items in my deleted items as read all of the time… ANNOYING!!!

• Does not sync Outlook Notes

• Sync is not as reliable as the standard email sync.

• Does not have a tablet edition of the software

3. Lastly hear are the Standard Email application pro's and cons

Pro's:

• Comes with the Android OS pre installed.

• Sync's all content with many nice options.

• Costs FREE!!!

• Very reliable sync

Con's:

• Does not automatically download pictures when using Exchange 2007 or 2003, I'm not sure about 2010.

• Does not sync Outlook Notes

• Does not have a tablet edition of the software

After you reading this you can probably understand why I am currently using the standard email application on my Android phone.

Thanks,

Brother Printer Toner Reset 9320CW

How to reset Brother 9320CW toner
1. With power on, open the toner access main door (You will get a “door open” message in the LCD.)
2. Hit the “Clear/Back” button and… ta-dah!!! you go right to the “Toner Reset Menu”
3. Using the up ^ Down > “Search” arrow buttons, you can then scroll through reset options for each of the printer’s [4] toner cartridges!
Code: K. = black; C. = cyan; M. = magenta and Y. = yellow
4. For each for these cartridges, there is the option to reset for STD (standard?) or STR (high yield?). I selected STD for all toners.
5. Using the number keypad, select option #1 for RESET.
6. Hit the “Clear/Back” button to get out of the menu, close door and all toners are working like new ones.
then your original toners are continuing to work.

Viper Key FOB replacement Pairing\Programming

So I recently went through the fun of programming a new 7251V Viper 2-Way LE Responder
Remote Replacement for my Prius. I figured I would save anyone else out there the trouble that I had with the programming. I noticed all of the information on the internet was not enough to actually get it working on a Prius. So here is how I got it working on my 2009 Toyota Prius.

1st you need to enter the remote into progamming Hold the Function button until the remote gives a long beep and LED light comes on the remote a (it takes about 8 sec.) Then press and hold the remote start buttom until the remote beeps 3 times and LED lights up. Now your ready to program the remote, you have 60 seconds to do the steps in the next 2 paragraphs.

One of the door has to be open . Turn on Prius so it says "Ready" and the ignition is fully on (this is the important part that none of the other forums talks about, the car must be running). As soon as you turn the car on you have 5 seconds to do the next step which is to press and release the control center button (Control center is just the antenna that is mounted on you windshield, it should have a blue light and a button that you can press). After you have done that you have another 5 seconds to press and hold the button after roughly 5 seconds of holding the button down the blue light will start blinking and if you have the system hooked up to more than just remote start and doors you may hear a chirp or horn honk, but in my case neither apply so I had to watch for the blinking light because that was my only indication.

Then you need to press the lock button on the remote and you will hear a success tone from the remote and maybe a chirp from the Viper system. After you are done with that you can turn the car off and hit the function button twice to exit and save the programming\paring information.

Does that help? I know this info would have helped me big time when I was going through it so I hope I can help others.

Thanks,
