So we can't use the GMail app on our 8350i? What is that all about...that really sux and I"m hoping somebody out there has some more info on this.

I have been using the Gmail app since I got my 8350i back in Dec of 08. Not a single problem at all.

Did you give it permissions to run?? (if not, I am not sure how you would go about that, perhaps, if that is the case, someone could point you in the right direction??

[japapoe]

I ran into the problem when I went to the mobile google site from the phone it said the app won't run on the 8350i. How should I go about getting around that and installing it?

[davidc2]

Try here-

Gmail on your mobile phone




I "think" that is how I got it. YMMV

[japapoe]

yeah I tried that but it tells me it doesn't work on the 8350i

That's the same way I got it on mine and has been working flawlessly since I installed in soon after I got my BB.

I have Gmail App working great on my 8350i as well..

I actually have 2 different Gmail accounts running without a problem.

[japapoe]

When you go to that link at google it says to go to Google Mobile which does not work!! AH this is frustrating.

I am running 4.6.1.204

Also for some reason when I try to send myself a text message link from the google site that doesn't work either....this is so annoying....it must be a problem with google

Are you using the native browser as you're attempting this?

[davidc2]

I just used the native browser and it worked without any problems. Scrolled down to the Gmail link.

So, the link is working

[japapoe]

I used the native browser and when I try to go to m.google.com I get a 504 gateway timeout error. When I use Opera it works but then when I click on the Gmail link it says "Sorry the Gmail application does not work on your 8350i..." I don't get why I'm the only one having this problem.

[Tre Lawrence]

I would think you have to use the native browser.

[japapoe]

well I got it work finally by pointing my native browser to Google Mobile

the Google Mobile does not work properly for some reason for me.

Thanks everyone for helping a frustrated soul!
