Description

This issue respects the following points:
Describe the bug

When using the option to open a note in view mode. Every note that I open shows blank. If I open it in edit mode, it shows fine.

Entering a note, pressing back and re-entering it show the content.
Leaving the note, entering another and returning to previous note gives again a blank note.

Looks exactly like #1065

Expected behavior

The note should open in view mode as when you are editing it and switch to view mode.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue in Notes Android 4.4.2: open a note in view mode, switch between notes, and compare this with edit mode. Trace the view-mode note-opening entry point and identify why content appears only after returning to the note; done means every opened note displays its content immediately and the behavior is covered by a regression test.
