Anyone Using Seven for Push Email?
 

I was using Seven beta for push email for a while until I noticed I randomly had charges for international text messages (19 sent text messages to the UK). I have not sent any international text message so I called sprint. They said they can see the charges, but can't see when the texts were sent so they removed the charges. I then removed Seven, and since then, I haven't had any charges for international text messages. Anyone else notice this?

I don't know if it was Seven, but ever since I removed that app, the charges stopped.

I have been using it for email as well.

I read once that it sends a text message back to report whenever the app. crashes or so. I have seen the charges well on my account as well.

As of lately it hasn't even working for me, but that is a different issue.

Same here: international SMSs to UK and I am having a really hard time getting it to work reliably lately. (that's on Touch Pro2)

Hmm, okay so no more Seven for me.

What are other people using for push email for Gmail?

I've been just researching this today. Check out this thread on xda-developers: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=593036
Haven't tried it yet, but sounds promising...

If you are using Sprint (ONLY FOR SPRINT), you can download Sprint Mobile Email which gives you true push email (for Gmail as well). This is a free service from Sprint (never been charged). You can only set up one account with it though. Works perfectly with the TP2.

EDIT: This is a re-branded version of Seven from Sprint. No international texts. SMS-based pushes, which means no connection is kept open, and no checking every X minutes.

After the first reboot, the setup window might hide behind the main HTC Sense interface. Make sure you complete the setup and registration by looking for the Mobile Email setup program in the task manager (this is only after the 1st reboot).

GMail supports push through Google Sync/ActiveSync. No extra software is necessary.

I just installed this and it doesnt appear to work for me. its not "pushing" email to my phone. i still have to manually tap send/receive. (and yes, i have sprint)

After rebooting, did you setup your Gmail account from the wizard that pops up? It may hide as HTC Sense will cover it up, but you can open it by seeing the running programs in the task manager. I tried different roms, and in all of them never had any issues getting gmail pushed. Btw, this is just a re-branded version of Seven (but no international texts, and sms-based push which is great).

This works great for me as well. Been using it for about 3 months now, the time that it takes to push an email has been greatly reduced as well. Just enter m.google.com for the server and your username@gmail.com and password and its good to go. Even syncs your contacts so you can use them with Google Voice.
