Although I when I use the dialer and actually begin dialing a number the matched contact appears, I cant see my "contacts" anywhere else -- in the app or in the contacts portion of the dialer.
I saw in the development thread that some people were having this problem, but the only solution seemed to be to watch what you freeze with TiBu. However, I'm on a fresh flash of beta 4.5, and have frozen nothing.
Any ideas? I don't know if this matters, but in settings-->accounts, it shows my Google account, but it is not under "motoblur" accounts.
Thanks in advance.
I had this problem. What I did to fix it was flash a fresh system.img of someone on the same build as me. Sounds like your /system might be fudged.
Find someone using the same kernel&version and try that.
Edit: if nothing else works, a factory reset will work, but that may cause problems, idk ()
Yea did you reset and wipe your data before loading the new rom?
I had same problem when I didn't wipe once I did and reinstalled 2.3.4 it worked fine.

Yeah I wiped furiously when I originally installed it and when I reflashed. Quick question, when you re-install, did you sbf back to 1.8.3, or did you just reinstall the zip with CWM? I just reinstalled the zip so maybe I should try a clean install.

I have tpc v2 installed and for some reason all my apps in my apps are gone. Says i have none. Does not show my installed apps which sucks because i won't know which ones have updates available.
I tried clearing cache, wiping app data, reinstalling market, did countless data factory wipes. The interesting thing is after a factory wipe if i go to my apps in the market my purchases are there. But if i go there again my apps are gone. They are there on the android webpage under my library but not in the app. It was working fine on stock Rom.
Any help is appreciated

Did you Use tibu to install them ?? Did you Make a backup of your Apps?? 1f So I WOULD wipe reinstall the rom and use TIBU to Install them.

I did use titanium to install them I even used market to do the install. heck I even used mybackup PRO nothing. I did a wipe, rom reinstall, and data wipe again and nothing working. reinstalled all my apps using titanium (200+) and still nothing.
been trying for past couple days. going back and forth re-installing the ROM (both custom and stock), countless data wipes, dalvic wipes, cache wipes to no availability.
I made a new account and apps that install shows up on my apps but not my main account
If I do a data wipe then go to market then my apps. first time going in, my purchases are there. but if I exit and go back. they are gone again.
My library on andorid market shows all apps I have downloaded and installed. but its not syncing to my phone the data
I had this problem about 2 hours ago, all I did was go to recovery mode then wipe/clear cache. Rebooted and it's working again.
OK guys i.'m tying to track down the file or files responsible for saving the programs I choose for my default apps. I am having my settings only stick for around ten minutes. After that time I have to choose my default app if multiple choices exist again.
I have a working theory that my permissions on said file or files are borked and I need to get them setup right again. I think they are not being written to the "save" fle and when the program chosen is killed my choice is killed with it.
I have tried using fix permissions in my recovery to no avail.
I am on MeanRom 2.6 ICS I am s-off with full root access.
Could someone tell me the file or files I should check and what the permissions should be when I look at them?
Thanks for any help,
Adan

I would try a full wipe (system, data, cache, dalvik-cache, sd-ext, boot) and then flash the ROM again. Some files might have gotten messed up during the flash so it's always best to start with a clean slate

I know what you might be thinking, he is asking a dumb question. Just hear me out. I obtained root using superoneclick 2.2. I then flashed the terra silent kernal to get CWM, I rebooted through CWM without backing anything up, yeah I know I made a mistake and I am upset about it, but to add insult to injury I preformed factory reset out of panic after that. Fortunately my device did not brick, but all the apps that were not bloatware were gone, some that were bloatware were gone like google play. I lost superuser as well. I thought that I would have to reroot, I tried that, but superoneclick said I was already rooted, I continued with the root anyways, it made no signifigant difference, I then found a way to download the superuser apk off of the internet, but it would not install. I then downloaded romtoolbox lite and ran root browser, I then came across the superuser apk and install in successfully and thus have superuser permissions. I had backed up my nand through CWM before successfully reinstalling superuser. But after I reinstalled it successfully and obtained root, I backed it up again. My question is, is it safe to flash custom roms like CM7 onto my device? As far as I know everything that I have reinstalled that were bloatware seem to be working ok. The only thing that does not work is the sound (not the speakers or the audio jack, the sound that can go into silent mode.) although I think that it may be due to the voodoo sound files that come with the terra silent kernel. If you need me to give you more information, I will try my best to provide it, but I am quite new to this sort of thing and I would rather just have my friend who has more expirience than I do at this look over it for me and what not, however he has only worked with htc as far as I know and it has been a while since he has done that. So, I will be more than happy to try and provide more info if needed. I am just skeptical on the matter since my device has been through alot.

Which player do you have? But yeah you can flash custom Roms on you player with CWM.
Here's a quick video on it around the 2 min mark http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aajKlCbemAs
Doing a factory reset erases all apps you've downloaded and not bloatware. That's why you back up before so you can restore your apps or settings later I use Titanium Back up https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.keramidas.TitaniumBackup&hl=en with the key. It's definetly worth it and normally the backups are a lot smaller and you get to choose what you want to back up and restore.
Also, if you want Superuser, you can get it on the playstore.
I have superuser, but I did not backup tgrough CWM before I rebooted through CWM. My friend I mentioned in my earlier posts saud that it would work. I have a 4.0 US and I think when I preformed factory reset, it only got what was on the custom kernel I had on instead of the stock. I got superuser through blackmart alpha b/c google play was removed from my device.
Sent from my YP-G1 using xda app-developers app
well yeah, as long as the ROM is for 4.0 you should be good.

You sure? Because I rebooted through cwm without backing up my nandvthe first time I opened it, will that cause problems even though I gained root and have superuser working? I also preformed factiry reset with terra silent kernel installed. What will that do?

Also google search box bloatware keeps failing (I think trying to root when my device was already rooted did that. How do I get rid of it?

Here's a video that talks about roms and kernels http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yF01lhfUwfk&feature=youtube_gdata_player but really kernels aren't bad only if you flashed one that isn't compatible to your player which.if you do it could brick it.
Sent from my YP-G70 using xda app-developers app
So it should be ok to install custom roms even though I rebooted w/o backing up my nand and then preforming factory reset with a custom kernel installed? I will probably have my friend show me how to flash custom roms, but is there a stock kernel I could flash back to through odin? Also does the kernel reponsible for managing bloatware? Because that would explain why some of my apps like google play were gone. I just do not want to make anymore stupid errors that could ruin my player, as I worked for every penny to buy it.

You should be ok even if you don't do a back up. Stock kernel and rom should be around the forums and bloatware is affected by the rom. Maybe you erased a system app and didn't reboot? that's usually why I get those messages. But seriously its hard to brick your player it could happen but as long as your careful you should be good. If your friends how to do it then he should show you that way you have a better understanding. And doing backups are mainly for after you flash something because you're most likely going to do a factory reset (erase user apps not preinatalled apps from rom) and so you can restore user apps with saved settings and progress. You could go without, but you're going to have to start from scratch which sucks! Byt good luck!

My friend looked my device over and told me that I would be ok. And that rebooting unistalls all google based app or something like that (He also told me that he should have told me that before I even accessed CWM. My googlesearchbox app kept failing and since I just use google as my browser homepage, I just deleted it using a no bloatware app. My friend said that rebooting through CWM without backing anything up and then preforming factory reset with a custom kernel installed would not do anything that could potentially ruin my player, I will soon have him show me how to use CWM to flash a custom rom and all that jazz

I backed up my system and my apps through titanium, does that mean that everything (including all the data on my sdcard) is backed up?

I also deleted the googlesearchbox apk.
Sent from my YP-G1 using xda app-developers app
It's saved on your internal memory which wont be erased but yeah once it's backed up as long as you backed up both apps with data you're fullyy backed up. your sd card is only touched to read and install you rom anything there is no touched.
So if I was to flash a custom rom, all the stuff on my sd card would be safe? And is it ok that I deleted the googlesearchbox apk?
Sent from my YP-G1 using xda app-developers app
Everything on your micro sd are safe. And it's ok to erase google search, I erase it too

Ok, so I tried to install google Play again by installing the apk, but it needed something else too, since the app was crashing alot, I could not get rid of it, I then saw that my internet browser was gone off of the bottom bar, I then tried to preform factory reset, I was terrified, but but I restored a backup nand through CWM. My question is, since I restored a backup, everything should be ok? And how do I get Google Play back?
Sent from my YP-G1 using xda app-developers app
The link for google apps from the link should be like your android version so if you have gingerbread look for the ones with GB. When you restore it will put it back to the state it was when you backed it up.

Before I install a new ROM I always do a back up in recovery before I install the new ROM. Then I wipe everything before flashing the new ROM. Then I install the ROM. Then I do a restore of only the data from my back up. This reinstalls all of my apps and all of my account data. When I restore I simply uncheck boot and system and let the restore only be the data from my back up. This is a fast easy way rather than using titanium back up or similar. I'm not sure if this can be done going from sense to aosp. But I don't see why it would be a problem. Hope this helps some of you out there. I always wipe dalvik and cache between everything I do.

From all I've ever read, yes, it would be a problem going from sense to AOSP, but I must admit I've never personally tried. I guess it (this method) wouldn't try to restore any sense apps, as they would be on the system/app partition, not /data.
From my Evo LTE, yup.
Depends, if it just restores data than I think not? Then again if your only trying to restore apps that be on data/app hmm. Test and find out? I wanna know! And stuck deep in the south horrid 3g and no additional rims in storage.
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
Honestly the best way to restore accounts apps and data is to do a back-up then after you flash your new rom is to restore data from your back up with twrp. Then everything is done. Just uncheck boot and system from your back up. Very fast and simple. This can be done from sense to sense. And aosp to aosp or aokp.

If you mean system data then I've tried that coming from AOKP back to sense and it'll say "a reboot is required for changes to take affect" but it'll send you into a boot loop. Believe me I've hardbricked 2 EvoLTEs
