Peace....Newy

another great idea. no i only have the standard gmail stuff going on. no extra lab testing going on. and on my phone all i have is maps and that is it. no sync or anything like that.

well, while we are trying to figure this out thought id let you know that people who tried loading the plugins cods from dm or bbsak experienced even more errors

are u on t-mobile by chance?

realy.... i was hoping to possibly find someone with the actual jar too... or maybe a link to the jar cause i have a program to download the install files so i can do an install of my SD card. also i am on VZW.

ima jus throw this out there but you have done bat pulls after u re-added ur new gmail account...only reason im throwing this out there is cuz when i installed .230 i got the gmail enhanced agreement page after i did my bat pull, not when i first loaded my os, so maybe it is installed after a boot-up,

this is assuming that u havent done battery pull after re-adding ur gmail account to ur bis

Re-downloading this will not work because the software is already loaded on your phone. It was nested in your OS. I initially learned this because I was trying to download the plugin and it kept erroring out. The reason BIS is sending you that link to download the plugin with your service books is because nobody is supposed to have 5.0 firmware yet

In order to access the additional features you must use the gmail account specific icon rather than the combined message folder.

but if its already nested within the os, what would be blocking him from using the added features?

lol, tried it :/

This is the menu in combined folder:



And this is the menu from the gmail specific icon:



You also have to read and agree to the EULA prior to the first use

The only other possibility would be that since .230 was a hybrid/partial OS that the gmail utilities were somehow shrunk or removed. I cannot vouch for that since I'm on a Bold with a full 5.0 OS.

lol, hmm, any way to pull it up specifically?

I'm not sure either. The only other difference that comes to mind is that my Bold and 8900 are on platform 5.2.0.XXX and the the other devices are still on 4.x platforms. It may just be nested in the higher platform builds?

Go to the main messages folder > bb key > options and see if the gmail plugin is listed like this (if not you don't have it installed):

that sounds about right cause you have tabbed browsing and such too... right!?
