Motorola Droid :: Why Do Deleted Emails On It Keep Reappearing As New
May 27, 2011
I have two Time Warner RoadRunner email addresses set up on my Droid. Inexplicably, sometimes when I delete emails, they reappear as a new incoming email either the same day or even many days after deletion.Sometimes, I can delete the same email multiple times before it stops reappearing.I do not want to change the setting on my RoadRunner set-up to "delete after reading" because then I will not see these emails when I get home from work and login on my laptop or my desktop.Somehow, the Droid cannot seem to distinguish that an email has already been read and deleted.
I use the standard pop3 email to connect with my website's inbox on my Droid. I have just noticed that a certain number of emails that were in my inbox were deleted on my phone. I can see them in my trash folder on the phone but I need to put them back in the inbox or any other folder that I can get to them using outlook on my computerFrom what I can tell my only option is to delete them permanently.
My company is using gmail as our new email provider and I cannot get emails that I have deleted in either my gmail in box or outlook inbox to sync up and be removed from my Droid. I only want to see what is in my inbox now, not what was in there from 6 says ago.
is that google has something to do with this. I have google backup (it just copies the text to my gmail account) - it's good to have history, at least for me. However, something is really strange. Every once in a while, a bunch of old text messages come up - and keep going. These things only have a time stamp on them so I can only tell that they aren't new by their content! They don't get logged as new in my gmail.I have used a backup app to delete them all. No good, they keep popping up.So, this is either a "feature" of the droid or motorola or verizon or google. Other straing things happen in droid OS, so I don't completely discount that but my feeling is that google "backup" is doing more than just that.
When I delete emails from my pc on my old earthlink account (yes, I still use an earthlink account, got too much stuff linked to it still) it doesn't remove them from my Turbo email folder. Not sure if I'm missing a setting or what but my old Droid DNA synced just fine. I'm using the default email app on the phone. I'm tired of seeing a ton of emails on my phone but only having 10 in my inbox via my pc.
All photos I take are automatically backed up to Google photos.
When I have deleted photos from Google photos or even from the gallery on the g3 sometimes these deleted pictures will reappear. It might be a week later or longer?!?
The pictures on my phone are saved to an sd card and also backed up as described above. Could it be linked somehow to Google photos?
I've tried deleting this one playlist that was created when I moved my music files on to my phone (internal memory, not SD card). It deletes but after a few hours or after a day or so, it just randomly reappears. I've deleted the files (mp3s) and this playlist just keeps coming back, even with no songs inside.
What can I do? I've deleted via google play music and the music app.
I have a rooted galaxy s6 on at&t and every time I try to delete a pre installed app it keeps coming right back. I read about dt ignite, but cannot find it anywhere in my applications.
How to prevent emails that have already been read & deleted from my wife's Ray re-appearing later (sometimes days later) as new ones in the notification disc on the email icon & in the inbox? It happens on both Hotmail & btinternet accounts in large enough numbers to be a real timewaster deleting them all again & again. (I have to say this doesn't happen on my iPhone - when they're gone they're gone.)
I have a Samsung Galaxy S6 on Verizon. Stock Email program with corporate Exchange email account. 2 emails that I delete on the phone just won't go away. No matter how many times I delete them, or which method I use, I even tried moving them to the Trash folder, they pop back up in my inbox. Confirmed they are completely deleted on the Exchange server. I have cleared the cache and cleared the data on the multiple Email programs in the application manager multiple times, they still come back, just these two specific emails. I also booted into the menu and wiped the whole cache partition, no luck.
Not long ago I took screenshots of in my phone (Xperia Z3) and camera shots which I then sent in a group chat on Facebook to some friends. Not long after I deleted them and it was fine. Recently I have noticed those photos are coming back whenever someone in the group chat sends a photo. Based on this I believe it has something to do with the Accounts section with syncs the contacts and such to your phone. Â It is always the same group of images that reappear despite the fact I constantly delete them. I have tried restoring the phone to factory settings, making backups with images deleted and restoring it, removing my accounts and retrying them along with several other solutions. However, I still cannot seem to delete the photos.Â
When I delete an email on my computer, in Outlook, it does not delete it on my iPhone. However, if I delete an email on my iphone, it will be deleted on my computer's Outlook. When I open an email, in either place, it will show up as read in both. This is whole issue is also taking place with my iPad. I have reset my Outlook on my iPhone several times, yet it is still not sycning.
I went to play some music on my Droid X2 so I hit the play all icon on the dock app and selected an album from the list of over 500 songs and it looked like it was hung up(getting used to that) then after about 5 minutes the list was gone and I have hundereds of these in the catlog
When copying pictures to my PC I see the thumbnails are still there for pictures that had been deleted.Can they be deleted on the phone alone or must that be done thru the computer ?
I am probably on the wrong section but, I have a Milestone X and I delted some important pictures and I was wondering is there anyway I can recover them?
I have noticed that on my Droid2, I don't always get my emails from my second account (not the gmail account). I have the incoming and outgoing servers set up correctly (GoDaddy gave me the info). For instance, I will get one email while I am at lunch but when I get back to my desk top computor at work I'll see that I have more emails sitting there that didn't come through on my phone.
I love my Turbo but my email keeps re-downloading even after I've deleted. I just deleted 123 emails dating back to December. Then I heard email notification again and this time 149 emails were DL'ed again duplicating what I deleted plus some. With the Turbo you can't do a select all to delete so it's one at a time or check all and then hit delete. I can't keep doing this. I've checked email settings and I see nothing where I can get this to stop.
I deleted the accuweather.com widget that was preloaded on my Droid 2. Now I would like to get it back but when I download the accuweather.com app, it is like all other apps and just has a simple icon.The original widget had the current weather always up so I just needed to glance at it.
I Accidentally deleted a contact from my 'book' I lost everything from their facebook the their numbers to their skype. I can re-add the numbers easy enough but how do I either
a) undelete the contact or
b) readd all of the peripheral contact info (facebook, skype...)
This isn't a problem with the Droid 2, but with this forum. I keep getting emailed responses to a discussion I replied to, even though I've turned off "Automatically receive notifications for all discussions I reply to:" in my email preferences. I've private messaged two forum mods for help but they haven't responded, so I'll have to post this publicly. I'm getting about a dozen of these unwanted emails daily, and have run out of options for turning them off.
I imported my photos on my computer last night from my phone. Typically I do this by creating a folder on my desktop, copying and pasting from the DCIM folder on the phone. I then will open up Picasa where I edit my photos. All of these steps seemed to work as they normally do (status bar completed, etc) so I went ahead and deleted the pictures in the DCIM folder. When I went to edit the photos, I realized that only about 10 of them were there... not the over 100 I had saved.
Any ways to recover off some hidden spot on the phone? I tried a free app which located many of the photos that were deleted, however, none of the ones I actually needed, which were only taken hours before. I'm thinking they never had a chance to save wherever these recovered ones went?
I've had this phone for about a year and have always had issues of not receiving Hotmail emails within a reasonable amount of time. With the GB update it did get a little better but today when I turned on my phone at 7am and it's now 10:30am I have not received any emails. I checked my Hotmail account on a desktop pc and I had 12 emails since last night as recently as 15 minutes ago. I thought GB was supposed to fix this. My battery life is not better if possibly worse with GB. And yes my Droid X does turn back on when I turn it off. Looks like GB may have fixed some things but broke others
