Hey guys :)

I couldn't find a previous thread about this.

In any 6.5.X build i tested (2311X, 2365X, 2356X), in the Manila Mail Tab:

After setting up an account and syncing it the first time, the preview won't work anymore.

Meaning that "Send/Receive" will show you the "green number" on the top right, but the mail previews are not updated. Can't swype to bring them up either ...
Only changing tabs will "update" it :mad:

Never noticed it before myself honestly until a user pointed it out :D

Anyone who's got an idea?

Grtz!

Hi there!

Ive attached a small video to show you the behaviour. This happens with all new mails i receive. Deleting messages works, the mail tab updates itself.

Im trying Artemis v14 right now, lets see if the bug is there also.

EDIT: Damnit, its there, the same bug.

EDIT2: Just tried the Energy ROM, it works there! Its the same windows build than DsE Black Edition v8, but i think the manila version is different. Its 2.5.20121225 in the Energy ROM...

Rookies! :p

What version of Sense is Artemis and the other ROM running ? I doubt this is a windows build issue. It very much seems like a Sense issue.

Well if it is, it would mean reverting back to an older manila for 6.5.x releases hmm :mad:

Well, personally, i would like to see this. Cause the mail functionality is one of the most important things on my device. I know that manila, or sense, is based on many packets for album, music player and mail which are cooked into your ROM right? Maybe you could use an older mail version? If not, i would prefer an older sense version. At least until a new sense is released which fixes this bug. But its your ROM, therefore your decision :) .

I've rolled back to many previous manila mail packages, no luck :rolleyes:

I'll keep trying to fix this without having to rollback Manila as a whole, coz i'm sure there'd be something up with that too :rolleyes: :D

Hint!

Hi guys!! I 've found a possible wayout! I am using Dutty's ROM HG 2.6. When I removed the Documents Tab that I had previously installed through cab the mail tab worked fine!!! So....I hope this is helpful.

Hm ok, didnt work for me. Tested it by just disabling the documents tab and again after a soft reset. Maybe its because of the files installed by the cab file? epapas could remove them, i cant cause they are cooked in.
Maybe you could cook a test rom without the documents package?

Although i'm not sure how it would affect the mail tab, i've seen weirder things ...

Ok, ill report back as soon as i flashed it and got some infos!

EDIT: Just flashed v8 maniless and guess what, mail tab works. So it seems like its the document tab causing the issues. Or at least one of the additional tabs from manimore.
