I've been trying to add my college email account to my 920, but it always failed to sync. The email basically gmail but its @(the name of my school).edu
I tried to add it as gmail account, should I do it the other way?
Is it a POP or IMAP account at your school? If it is, I think all you need do is tap Add An Account, then tap Other.Account. The school should have the format you use for your username.
Its most likely an "other" account (not saying it'll take up lots of space )
best thing would to ask IT about what settings you use and plug it all in manually
