Restoring email data from Sprite

I seem to have a problem when restoring email information into the diamond using sprite backup.
This has happened a few times, not sure if its because I'm changing between ROMs.
Anyway, what is happening is that everytime I restore, both my email accounts show in TF3D, but when I try to open the inbox it won't load through WM.
When I go into accounts it does not show the email account also (ISP email account).
The two email accounts I have is hotmail and with my ISP, hotmail one works fine, but the ISP does not.
Any ideas on how to delete the accounts from TF3D??

I have the exact same problem! Everything is still there, every single mail, but the account for my gmail is gone! Can anybody help?

Same problem
Same here. I used Sprite Backup to backup the data on my old TyTN then tried to restore it on the Raphael. On the Mail tab of the TouchFlow the email account is listed (it appears as "PDA - Email" - just as it was named on the TyTN) - but I can not open any message and I can not delete the account either - because it is not listed under "accounts".
SMS messages were restored ok - but the MMS and mail accounts all have the above problem. Any ideas?

Phantom e-mail account

Hello
In TF3D under the e-mail tab I've got a phantom e-mail account icon showing up on the right hand side even though I've got no e-mail accounts setup in Outlook. If I add an e-mail account to Outlook I get two email account icons showing up.
This happened after I improperly uninstalled Emansio Outlook plugin without first deleting my e-mail account profile.
I've removed all registry settings referring to Emansio but I can't get rid of this phantom account.
Any ideas? Thanks.

Hi,
I had exactly the same problem yesterday after restoring (new Rom) with Sprite backup. I was finally able to get rid of this phantom account with SK-Tools:
Choose category "All", on the bottom of the page you will find
Delete PIM Information,
mark phantom account, Delete Account,
"Are you sure?" Yes,
2nd "Are you sure? ...Stop" No

Thanks - I had the exact same problem, also from upgrading ROM and then doing a restore from Sprite, and SK-Tools (the free, limited-to-6-items edition even!) worked great.
I also used it to delete some duplicate contacts that were somehow in there. That's such a useful tool I might buy the full copy.

i have sort of the same type of bug.
i have a push email account, after removing the software, there is still a "1" on my email tab.
how could there be one unread email when there is no email account? ... haha .... ghostly ...
hopefully we can find a way to clear the manilia cache.

I was in the exact same position, and SKTools worked for me. An excellent and very helpful set of tools. Id recommend it!

Brilliant, thanks very much.

I uninstalled the sprint picture mail cab and I've be searching everywhere for a way to get rid of the account from the email tab. I'm going to try out sktools. But I sure would like to know how to do it manually.

Any ideal other then performing hard reset? (coz I no want to lost my sms, even though I know I can restore it from the backup created using sprite, but the email account will also came back after the restoration) please advise.
Thanks in advanced!

Just go to "messaging" from "start" and open e-mail accounts.
You can delete or add new accounts from this application.

hi,
thank you for the reply, but my case a bit strange.
I found this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=404851&highlight=email+account
I can see the account icon shows at the right hand side (TouchFlo3D interface), but when i click at "Menu"->"Accounts"->"Accounts...", the email account didn't listed there
Therefore, I try to create for another email acount and use back the same account name, the system prompt me that I have to use a different account name (eg. Yahoo!) as the email account name already in use (although there is no any email account listed there). So, I change the account name to "Yahoo!-2" and now in the account list only listed this newly created email account (but the dummy email account i created still remain invicible and cannot get rid of it). Please help

Removing email account from the mail tab?

I uninstalled sprint picture mail (wasn't cooked into my rom) but the account still exists in the email tab of T3D. I couldn't find where tflo stores these settings. Any ideas?

Is this email account set to sync in ActiveSync (mobile device manager)? If it is, remove the check mark next to it on your computer, and re-sync. I don't know anything about sprint picture mail, but that's the solution to this problem with regular exchange/pop3 email accounts.

Thanks for the reply , but I do not have outlook installed so I never active sync. I just noticed I posted in the wrong forum. Sorry

I too have the same problem. not just tf3d either it does it on my kaiser using manilla 2d too. If I use sprite backup and than restore I have 2 gmail accounts and 2 yahoo accounts it even prompts me when im setting up my account that the "account name has already been taken" so it must be saving this information somewhere I looked through the registry to no avail maybe herg or someone knows the answer.

Sktools removed it ! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=412035

[Q] Disable syncing contacts from google acct

Hi,
Previously I was using a Dell Streak and I was able to disable contact syncing with my Google accounts.
Actually I have 2 google accounts and I wanna sync only contacts with one of them.
On Galaxy Note , I couldn't find the setting to disable contact syncing with one account.
How can I do that ?
thx.

Hi,
I really need a solution for this because I've duplicate contacts now.
Any idea on how to delete contacts from one Google account on the phone ?

Go to contacts--Options--More--Accounts
Select the account you dont want your contacts to be merged from. Uncheck "Sync Contacts"
Hope that helped.
Cheers

thanks. that option disables further sync of contacts from that account but it didn't delete the contacts coming from that account.
How can I delete existing contacts of that account ?
Also, I need the similar for calendar. Is there similar option ?

All'ite. Why don't you do this?
At this step you have disabled syncing your contacts to an account;lets call that account GAcc2. Lets call the account that you would like the contacts to be synced/Displayed from as GAcc1
Now you want to delete the contacts that have been synced from GAcc2.
So Go to Contacts--More--Display Options--Accounts and select contacts to be displayed only from GAcc2(i.e. uncheck the contact boxes for GAcc1). After this step the contacts that are displayed are only from GAcc2(the one you don't want). Simply select all the contacts and delete them. So this means we deleted "ONLY" GAcc2 contacts.
After this step again go to "Display Options" and under accounts select GAcc1.
and voila you will have only GAcc1 contacts left.
Do the same with calendar.
Hope that helped.
Cheers.

thank you. that's a good idea.
But when I delete from my Note, is there a risk of deleting them from Google acct GAcc2 ?
Also, some contacts are coming from both Google accounts. When I delete them, will I lose them from both accounts ?
And, how can I do that for calendar ? I can't find the correct app...
thx

Keep Auto Sync off, that will niether sync mail/contact/calender, when you need to sync it manually, just press on desire item n it will sync for that time only.
Further Now you can get Gmail with setup of Email application separately.

No that would be not an issue. Remember at that step you would have switched syncing to GAcc2 as "off". Just make sure you don't click "Merge with google".
If you are really scared and want to be backup proof i would suggest this;
I'm sure you would be having windows installed with Microsoft office. Microsoft office would have an app called microsoft exchange. Create a dummy account in exchange with a local Dat. Then go to google and search for tools to copy google contacts to exchange. There are plenty. Once you are done with that you would have a backup of your contacts. Similarly there are plenty of tools to do the reverse as well i.e. Microsoft Exchange -->Google server; this way you can restore it too.
Regarding the calendar its the same thing bro.
Browse to Settings-->Account and Sync--> select the account that you dont want calendar to be synced from-->Uncheck 'Sync Calendar'
Hope that helped.
Cheers.

Using Exchange Server with Android, without Google Contacts but with Market
THis post intended for people who use Exchange
Using Exchange Server with Android, without Google Contacts but with Market
To prevent your Google Accounts showing up in an Exchange Server minded device, uncheck autosync.
Create your Exchange account first, sync
Uncheck autosync
disable Wifi (your device must have slow connection)
Then add your google account.
Press Sync, but be DAMN fast to go to the account settings and quickly
uncheck the Contact,Calendar.
This way, you can have a fully Exchange server minded device, without
any junk from Google Downloaded, with Market access.
