Updated Gmail app in Android Market

Tuesday, September 21, 2010 | 11:13 AM

We just released a new version of  the Gmail app in Android Market, so Gmail updates aren’t tied to Android  version releases anymore. Now you can get new Gmail stuff faster  without having to wait for system updates. To start you off, we’ve  improved message replies, access to quoted text, and more.

As  you scroll through a conversation, your most important message actions  will now stick to the top of the screen, one click away, no matter how  long the email is.

Very  long thread? Now you can view previous message content more easily,  just like in the desktop version of Gmail.  Tap “Show quoted text” to  reveal the previous message.

Finally,  this updated version of the Gmail app has limited support for Priority  Inbox. If you’ve enabled Priority Inbox via the desktop version of  Gmail, you’ll see an “Important” label that shows all messages flagged  as important. You can even add a shortcut to “Important” to your home  screen.

The  Gmail update requires Froyo (Android version 2.2), so it’s available if  you have a Nexus One, HTC EVO, Motorola Droid 2 or Motorola Droid. (Not  sure if your device is running Android version 2.2? Check here.)

Get the update from Android Market (just scan the QR code below, or click here if you're on a phone) and check out the new Gmail. We’d love to hear what you think at android-apps-support@google.com.

Update  9/21/10 12:13pm Pacific time: There is a known issue with important  actions not sticking to the top of the screen on HTC phones running  Anrdoid 2.2, like the EVO 4G and

the Droid Incredible. We are working to address this.

I don't know how that could be good news for us X10 owners. It's not like we are going to see 2.2 anytime soon, if ever.

was being ironic.......

this phone is the biggest disappointment I had with gadgets. seems  to me that I moved to a large house but under construction, we have a big  room, but I can not use to be full of rubbish, I have a large swimming  pool, but I can not put too much water, have a shower without water.  I  hope SE finish the construction with the 2.1 update!

Just out of curiosity... but what were you expecting from this phone? A miracle?

If you moved into a big house with all that facilities only half working, you might have been too impatient. the other way of saying it is just too plain rude.
