disappearing email accounts - P3600 ROM Development

I have flashed official DOPOD WM6 rom into my device.
Everything is working well except the pop email accounts that I create disappear after every soft reset.
I could not find an explanation for this bug and decided to start this new thread so that anyone who is experiencing the same problem can share some ideas.
Help wanted!!!

I have the same problem in WM5. Solved it by creating an account, update it and close the app the regular way (with the "X"....not minimize). I my case it didn't disappear afterwards.

I have the same problem. I am using the Aus wm6 rom. Anyone have any solutions?

it seems that the only solution is the one posted above by Ce....

I'm not sure this is a universal solution. As to me this bug could be related to the active sync function "Don't allow wifi connection" during sync...
Anyone can confirm it?
Ciao

Solution
This problem happens to me from time to time. There is a small app that I found over here on XDA that restores these accounts. I have attached it.
I leave it in my storage card in the directory with all the important stuff.

And I thought I was the only one encountering this problem. It's very disturbing. considering I reset every now and then. It doesn't disappear every time I soft reset though. Thought of hard reseting but was lucky to see I not alone. Will try the soft patch to see how.

Yes. It work great. But still it's irritating given that they are not resolving this.

Is There A Real Fix For Disappearing Email Accounts?

POP Email accounts and elements of Network setting disappear once in a while.
It happens with all the new ROMs. I've done the mUn thing, where one opens a connection, stops it and restarts. But the accounts still disappear, sometimes after weeks of use, sometimes after just a few days.
There is an app to resurrect the missing email account, but after you still have to input servers and address. Just very annoying while traveling.
What is the damned problem and is there a permanent solution?
I have changed the file registry type (File based registry) from "Hive" to "File" using tweaks2k2 and it seems ok, someone else needs to cross check it
please explain
I also would avoid this repetitive problem , could you please how to try , step by step , in simple words ?
thanks
Thanks, taiseer999! I just changed to File, keeping my fingers crossed. BTW, how long have you used it after the change without loss of settings?
tower5, you need tweaks2k2 (it has 3 changes trial and go to System Tricks/Collection 5. Check File Based Registry (WM5).
Hopefully this works (it sounds like it should.)
P.S. Perhaps. if this really works, the ROM chefs can integrate it into the ROMs. Is there any disadvantage to using File rather than Hive?
I´ve been following all the steps that mun_rus wrote down and after the last upgrade I didn´t do it right away so I lost my e-mail accounts quite a few times and when I try to set the same account up with the same name and settings the pda pops up a message saying that there´s another account with the same name and I don´t know where and I don´t see it.
But now I guess it´s working fine,after several soft resets my new account it´s till there.

It doesn't work, unfortunately:-(
Checked mail last night, a little later went to check again, and the email account had disappeared.
This is just crazy....
What is the reason this is happening? To ALL the new ROMs?
Why MS don't Fix this Big Problem?

yes, mailrepair.exe do recover the mail account.
but the main problems is not only about mail account, it is a datebase lost or cert lost.
even u recover the mail account and setup all the password again to make the wm system continue working, it became unstable anyway.
once account lost, best way out is hard-reset.
in daily use, avoid to reset the handset as much as possible.

It's a security feature of wm6, bugged of course.
Disabling file system cache can help (I've never lost email account until now) but you still have to take care to close PO before a soft reset.

been using RUU_Trinity_DOPODASIA_WWE_3.00.707.18_6275_1.46.30.11_108_Ship for a good while and the e-mail accounts don't even think of disappearing...so there you go...
I have also used Dobod-wwe in my HTC since it was released and never had issues with mail accounts. Also tried pdaviet and Bepe but original dobod was most stable for my HTC.
Still......Issue

just started using ax3l's lite rom, wi-fi settings and mail accounts seemed to stay there no problem untill I installed network wizard. After that everything disappears after every reset. Could that be the cause....?
just when I got most of my apps neatly reinstalled and all....has to be done all over again...at times like these I really have to fight the temptation to throw the thing against the wall...Thankfully I got an N95 as well which never loses settings so back into the pocket the P3600 goes, hail the N95
will update on that settings /mail accs business when I get the nerve to reinstall everything again
Yay, got my accounts back! Thanks!
I'm not going to pretend to know what I'm talking about, but I can tell you that in the past, it was mentioned that it had something to do with the Old and New Kernels. The Old one (WM5) was fine, while the new one (WM6) is not. At least that's what I THINK I remember.
Anways, for whatever reason, my ROMs don't have this problem. Here are a couple that I know avoid it:
[KITCHEN+ROMS][WWE][Jun.28.2010] WM6.5.1 23504 - WM6.5.5 23569 M2D Blue Re-Visit
[KITCHENS+ROMS][WWE][ITA][Nov.04.2009] WM6.5 23504 - Sorry NOT FOR P3600i! OFFLINE
[KITCHENS+ROMS] [WWE] [10.27.2009] WM6.5 23081 - Sorry NOT FOR P3600i!
I have used the same Kernel in Most all of my Kitchens, so maybe that is it...

Question for Link Facebook Profile for People Contact

I have searched in the Rhodium section for this problem, but didn't really find any solutions to my problem.
When I choose a person, edit contact information, and scroll down to the end to link facebook profile, it worked in the past.
However, yesterday, when I tried it, it gave me an error message with manila.exe. Now, everytime I click on the link Facebook, it will just show me the contacts.
Any solution to this?
Much appreciated
I am sorry to bump this again, but any suggestions?
I'm a newbie but have same problem facebook updates for contacts crashing everytime I use it any ideas anyone???
Felixwe622
I was having the same problem I did a hard reset and it fixed the problem.
Same problem here. It crashes when I try to link to a Facebook account, but also immediately crashes when I visit the "all people / updates and events" tab. Hoping there's a way to fix this without a hard reset
I contacted HTC and they said that a hard reset was the solution...oh well. At least we have a solution! Right?
How is that a solution? Won't the issue just come back again? I only managed to link about 6 contacts before it broke, it may be 4 or 3 next time? :-S

Phantom Email account

so I have deleted my email accounts, both of them but manilla still shows one of them. When I click on it from the manilla tab, it does not do anything. I can flip thru them as if they are still there but I can not open the email like normal. Windows knows that it has been deleted but manilla still thinks it is there.
Anyone know of a way I can delete it?
Thanks,
Jeff
If you're not going to have email accounts on your device, then why not just remove the Mail tab altogether?

I want email, I have two email accounts, but with this phantom, which happens to be a copy of my work email, it shows three.
When Make the new account called "work" it it says that I already have an account named work and I have to name it something else.
When I look at the accounts in windows mobile, there only shows two. Manilla is convinced that there are three.
I have tried to search the registry to delete all things named my work email once I deleted both my accounts but it is still there.
Anyone have any ideas?
THanks,
Jeff
Does anyone have any ideas about this? I am sure that a hard reset would do it but the issue is not worth that, I would rather just find a fix for it.
thanks all,
Jeff

does disabling sense allow you to create the work e-mail?
double check all registry entries, it most likely won't be labeled work either.

I've encountered this in the past but can't remember how exactly I got rid of it. I remember I used a program such as memmaid, sktools or pocket mechanic to delete the phantom account and then just readded it. I've been checking my phone to find out how I did it but as of yet i've not found it. Will post back as soon as I do though.
Sorry I cant be much more help at the mo, but just know this issue can be fixed without a hard reset.

[Q] My Facebook app will no longer refresh. Anybody else?

Tilt 2 with the new ROM. Whether I use the app that is in ROM (1.07 I think) or the newer one from Marketplace when I tap "refresh" I get the hourglass (or whatever you call the circling dots now), but no refresh. I can post status updates. If I delete the facebook files from the root when FB first loads everything will be current, but no refreshing. I have tried uninstall, reinstall etc. No luck. I've been running the new ROM for a couple of weeks and this just started so i am assuming the ROM is unrelated.
Is anybody else having this issue (maybe it is a FB issue), or know anyway to fix this?
Same here, on the october stock 6.5 ROM.
Same...
I am having the same problem...
I was using Energy Sept, 7 ROM and Switched today to Sept, 24 ROM and still having this issue.
Went to marketplace and download latest version of FB and still having this issue? I logged out and logged back in and it refreshed but, It doesnt always work.
Someone please help us out...
I was just having a similar problem. Logging out and back in will let you refresh but only once.
Same here... I was just looking around to see if anyone else was having trouble. I'm running 11-SEPT Valkyrie_v7.4 FireStorm-LEO 23135 with Facebook v1.1.0.17.
KC
Same problem here ¬¬ I don't know what's happening with this app
I assume the problem is that Facebook has been through some changes, and Microsoft doesn't have time/interest to update their client.
Well I'm sorta glad to see that it's not just me
Happening to me too ... bummer
i have the same problem.
Does anyone get information from microsoft?
Add me to the list too
Please, complain here: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/windowsmobilehelp/thread/79d1e81a-84df-4cbb-b258-c563b8a678bb
Lets see if Microsoft can hear us this time...
im in the stock-factory rom and its the same, no refresh in facebook
Mine hasn't worked for a few weeks now.
Mine has also stopped working.
Facebook App Solution
I'm having the same problem so I googled it and there was a solution (forgot where or who). Anyway, open file explorer and go to device. Now look for files that has the name facebook (I deleted 3 including a file named fbmail) and delete them, them soft reset. Now log-on to your FB account and everything should be as before.

Only works for one session.
I've had the same issue, and I'm affraid that Windows Mobile related questions will remain unanswered... This might not solve your problem guys, but this is the workaround that I currently use (already posted it in other forum):

I have the same problem and I dont know how to fix it.
I am glad that i am not the only having this problem
I asked on another forum and they told me if I did't activate the mode which delete message when you reach the limit.
So I desactivated it and the problem seem to be resolve.
But after 1 month the issue appared again even if i made a full wipe and installed the rom Omega.
I have the same problem on both stock and omega.
Only fix I have at the moment is rebooting
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
It be possible that there is no solution...
Did you activate the message auto deleting?
Are you people rooted ?
If yes then make sure that in suspersu settings trust system apps is checked. It looks like messaging app sometimes use su. Strange.
It popped up once in my suspersu logs.
Sent from my GT-N7100
I go activate it !
Hope this will stop the problem ! I will tell you later !
It seems that even by checking trust system app, the problem isn't resolve ...
