Email app doesn't display emails' formatting properly anymore - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II

The email app used to display all the colors and formatting (such as table) perfectly. But it doesn't now.
I have done 3 things before I noticed this change. (1) applied the 4.1.2 OTA, (2) did a factory wipe/reset, (3) rooted. I did (2) for the sake of starting clean which I so regret now. I doubt rooting has anything to do with it. I'm guessing the OTA changed the email app behavior. If anyone has any clue, please help. Thanks

I found the reason. There's nothing wrong with the email client. It just doesn't display formatting for emails it searches and fetches from the server. If it's an email that's sync'd to the phone already, it displays the formating fine.

Don't know if this will work but I had the same issue once. I cleared out all of my text messages especially the ones with images on them. I also cleared out a ton of emails that were just sitting there. Hope this will work or maybe someone has a better solution on this than me. Good luck..

Well I have zero text messages and zero emails. I'm guessing the error was with the ROM. I changed ROM... we'll see how it goes.

Exchange Email Notification and Preview in status bar or pop up.?

Ok...one of the features I like on my iPhone 5, was when I recieved an email on my exchange email account, a popup window would appear showing me a brief summary of the email....
On my Note 2, nothing happens when I get an email with my exchange email....no preview, screen doesnt turn on....nothing...and that drives me crazy....
is there a setting or app that I am missing that will give me some sort of preview of my exchange email, when it comes in, so i dont have to unlock the phone, and go into my email box....
this is the only thing im missing from my iphone...

Email Sync Issues

Hey guys so i had 2 of my yahoo accounts synced with the stock email app and it worked fine for a few days than all of a sudden it kept saying sign in fail and incorrect password when the password was infact correct. If i delete the accounts and readd them i log in and sync all my emails but the next time it goes to update it says sign in fail again....really annoying, any idea what is causing this? Had no such problems on my S3.
Im running everything stock right now. Thx for the help!
anybody?? am i the only one with this issue?
Yes I believe it has to do with the yahoo servers. Annoying.
anyway to fix it? it didnt happen on my s3...

Apparently it is happening to everyone but not sure. It would be nice if someone else came in and confirmed.

I'm having similar isssues with Yahoo. It will dingdong telling me the same thing, that it cannot load. But it seems to work ok after closing error message. And it does not do it all the time. I don't want to download the Yahoo app because seeing as how I cannot register my gmail account in the native app at all, I'd have to use three separate email apps to see all my email accounts. I also have a juno email account which works fine.
bump until someone decides to enlighten us
Happened to me too but when in wifi it works fine. But I haven't seen it do it in a while.

Mms keeps crashing

Just out of the blue it will crash and I have to restart. Been going on for a couple weeks now. I've cleared data, I've reset phone aand I just reflashed the rom yesterday. I'm running the stock rooted rom. Been on that for entire time.
Something else I can mention about this, even though it doesn't crash always when I'm getting a pic. Friend sends me a pic. I see the pic and another that falied to download. I click download and poof. Mms crash. I restart and get a seperate text thread saying something about invalid message. I've since lost the ss I took of it.
Just to see one time it crashed I went into the market and installed textra. It loaded and worked fine but wouldn't pull Mms history. Restart to clear the Mms out of failure then uninstall/reinstall textea and then it pulled all my history from Mms.
I'm sure I can go on and on about this ....
I'm confused why all of a sudden when its been fine for a long long time

Messaging app still crashing and its really pissing me off. When I open messaging it shows all my history for a millionth of a second then shows the no messages screen. You know just the envelope in the middle of the screen.
Is there a moddified secmms I can try. Maybe something pulled and modded for use on the note 2. Even If I have to download a whole rom and pull it myself.
Anyone have any suggestions other than using a play store app

Help! I'm not receiving email alerts for all the threads on xda I'm subscribed to

Hello,
I'm experiencing a strange kind of technical problem with the xda forum: I'm not regularly receiving the email alerts for all the threads I'm subscribed to (I'm actually subscribed to 164 different threads). This happens since my registration to the forum in 2014.
I strangely receive only some notifications and quite rarely, and they are about only some of the threads I'm subscribed to, this despite the fact that most of these 164 threads subscriptions are set to "Daily" notifications on my settings.
Those notifications seems to be sent to me randomly (I'm suscribed to those threads in the same way that I'm subscribed to the other ones, and I never actively posted on most of those threads).
I've double checked the settings on my user panel, and my e-mail spam filter is totally ok.
Is there by chance a maximum number of email alerts from subscribed threads that an user can receive?
Do you guys have an idea about why this could happen?
Do you think that it would be possible to contact someone of the forum staff in order to ask for technical help?
Thank you in advance!
W.
I've made a change to your account. See if you get any notification emails now?
Thank you for your reply, the_scotsman. Unfortunately nothing changed and auctually I didn't even receice a notification for your answer to this post as well (I've just discovered it by visiting the post manually).
I did a quick search and it appears that other users did experience the same problemin the past/are experiencing it.
Do you have an idea about how we could try to fix this problem? It would be very helpful for me.
Thank you very much again,
W.

Hmmm....that's strange.
I wonder if @MikeChannon has any ideas as to what the problem might be?
I can't see anything wrong with your user account settings. Let's see if he has any suggestions.
This time I just did regularly receive the email notifications about both your reply and the quote, but the system for example completely missed your first reply on the 24th of August, and, as an example, the same did happen with my followed threads that I'm subscribed to (with daily notifications): during the last week I did receive only 2 email notifications instead of 11. These 2 notifications are about threads that the system seems to always notify me about, while I never received any email notification about the other 9 threads that the system skipped this week.
That's indeed very strange. I'm sure that my e-mail box is totally fine, I'm actively participating to many other forums without problems. My spam folder looks also clean.
Any help would be really very appreciated. Thanks again!

Our notifications are sent out via a gmail account and a few days ago we noticed google was rate limiting us. In theory that should only mean a delay but it seems emails don't actually get through at all in some cases. It MAY be related to this.
Please report back if this continues.
Mike
Thank you for your reply Mike.
The thing is that I'm experiencing this problem since the beginning, right after my registration to the forum back in 2014.
At the moment I'm subscribed with daily notification to 169 threads but I'm receiving the email notification for only a few of them (and it has always happened like that). When I connect to my user control panel I can clearly go throught my subscribed threads and spot many threads that have been recently updated without any notification on my email box (actually the main part of them).
I'm pretty sure that my email account is fine but I can't really imagine what could be the problem.
I'm open to any kind suggestion. Being able to fix this problem would really help me.
Thanks again.

I'm sorry to come back writing and (bothering you guys) here, but it looks like that I really can't resolve this issue myself.
Recently I even switched the email account linked to my xda profile to another address hosted by another provider (Hotmail) but nothing has changed: I still don't receive the large part of the email alerts from the threads I'm following.
Since having switched to another e-mail address should have eliminated the possibility of blocks or filters on my (e-mail side) frankly I really don't know what to do now.
Being able to receive updates from the threads I'm following would be incredibly helpful and would surely help me to engage more with the community.
I know that, since this is a free forum (but I would even pay a subscription if it could help with this issue!), I can't demand a prompt resolution to this technical issue. But I'm wondering which could be the reason behind this problem:
could it be possible that my account is still in a kind of "limited" mode?
could it be possible that there's a limit to the number of e-mail alerts that a user can receive (even if, as from my case, this limit would be extremely low, and it also looks like I'm not receiving the alerts with consistency)?
Your account definitely isn't restricted in any way, it looks completely normal. I've triple checked, and checked again.
This might be something that the server admin @bitpushr can perhaps provide some input, as I'm out of ideas. We've checked everything we can from our side.
Thanks again for your assistence @the_scotsman, I trust you and I know that you have already tried everything you could; I'm really grateful for it.
I also know that it could seem a strange problem and I'm sorry for it; at this point I would eventually be even willing to move my account to any other email address for you guys to check.
I'm thinking about other alternative solutions. What if i open a new account, would it be eventually possible to copy all my thread subscriptions (176 subscribed threads) on it?
Thank you very much again

Hello, what do you mean with "correct solution"?
My idea was to open a new account and to "migrate" or copy my thread subscriptions to it, but actually no forum moderator or admin did reply to my message to let me know if that was possible....
At the moment unfortunately my issue is still unresolved

Alright, thanks.
Hopefully someone will come out with a solution.
Hello there, sorry if I hijack this thread but I got the same problem. In general, it's the opposite problem (spam), but in this case, I don't receive emails from my subscription, despite having "checked" all threads and chose "instant email notification" in me profile settings.
Sorry If I missed a setting.
It worked today. I've got one for a quote and one for an answer to a thread I subscribed.
I don't know if you changed something.
Well I spoke too soon. Again I did not receive an instant email in a thread I subscribed.

I've never found the email notifications to be reliable, Tapatalk is much faster, and reliable.

Too bad, I like email notifications. I think Tapatalk is for mobile users and I browse XDA only from my PC.
