Hi community! i have a little problem. since a few hours i am not able to open my drafts-folder anymore. if i choose folder->drafts my mail programm quits with following errormessage:

"The application Mail (process com.htc.android.mail) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again"

-- -so i was searching for a fix for this problem. one possible solution was to delete all data over application-manager (settings->manage applications->All->Mail->Clear Data).

it worked only as long as i saved another message in draftsfolder.

-- i also tried to use ROM Manager's option to "Fix Permissions". that worked a few times for other problem, but not this time.

-- i was using DL.DesireZ.v3.3.final.nand by dandiest and yesterday i flashed to new version 3.5. i thought my problem was gone, but its still there..

i dont know why this is happen even if i flashed a new version..
thanks for any suggestions

greetings


EDIT: excess message database over root:

Ok, i did it. i've found a *.db file in rootsystem. /data/data/com.htc.android.mail/databases/mail.db

in this file is all you need. accounts,messages, settings etc.

with an explorer which is able to access root its possible to view and edit this file. :D i've got my message back (at least the content), now i will try to look what keeps my mailprogramm quitting.

How to deinstall HTC Skins?

i now know why this error happens to me. i now started gparted and formated my sdcard (fat and ext4) and flashed again< the error was gone. haha

so i started to set up my phone and reinstalled my applications. to be sure i tested every time i installed an application my drafts folder.

after install of a HTC Sense Skin called "rEVOlution" from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=801928 my mail programm brings the same error as before when i want to access drafts:

"The application Mail (process com.htc.android.mail) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again"


so for me this skin causing this error. i know have to know how to deinstall it?

edit: yes thats it. if i change back to default htc skin i am able to access drafts... weird.

solved

to remove the skin and get rid of this error (in this case) you have to delete following files and folder:

/data/data/com.htc.skin.revolution
/data/app/com.htc.skin.revolution-1.apk

then restart. done.

a quote form the original thread.

Issues: There might be FC with gmail, then just clear your gmail user data in app settings.
