So i just tried various Roms and I'm very impressed. The roadblock i am facing now is how to copy my contacts from the phone to PC and back again when the ROM isn't sense based. (HTC sync isn't working)
I've tried Android Commander, but i still can't figure out how to get my contacts copied off the phone.
Any Suggestions..
if you are using 2.2 then it have option you can simply import contacts from phone to sdcard . or use MyPhoneExplorer
I had this same problem, but then I figured I could start adding my contacts as google contacts. Now all my contacs gets synced if I should decide to flash a new ROM.

Had to to do a hard reset , I used this opertunity to flash the new 3.14 rom on the HD 2
I did it sucessfully.
I had used PIM backup to back up all my contacts , approx 1700 contacts
I ran the restore and got all my contacts, call logs , mesages all back
then I tried to sync with out look to get my one notes back ( I use win xp wih Active Sync ) , but some how I get an error message and my contacts almost double.
Tried to erase all contacts of outlook and resynced same problem , some how outlook add blank entries in the contacts list approx 645
Now i want to get my one note file that i have saved seprately back onto HD2 , but it wont go.
Please advice me ,
I dont want to enter thenm all over again
I was just trying out new themes for Trigger 3.2 on my vibrant,
and I realized that somehow the rom's default contacts book got deleted lol..
I'm not sure how but I can't open phonebook without using a separate app for it.
Dialer tab is still working though.. just missing the contacts book
How can I restore the Trigger 3.2 contacts book?
Do I have to reinstall the whole thing again?..
reflash but you shouldnt have to wipe
or extract the contact.apk (if thats what its called) from system > app in the downloaded zip then push it to system > app on the phone with root explorer then reboot
I have Cyanogen mod om my S3, its a great Rom but i have few issues:
1. It doesnt sync my music from sd card.
2. It doesnt show my photos which is in dcmi folder as its default. (I full wiped before flashing this rom with theese pictures)
3. And it doesnt fully sync gmail calendar, fb contacts.
4. All widgets and apps shows location im in, but doesnt show weather.
5. When i plug USB it only shows few folders in it
Sorry if any of these problems was discused, but im new here and i like this rom too much to just flash some other.
This might be a rookie question, but here it goes:
1. What is the best way of saving contacts and SMS messages for transferring over to CyanogenMod? I have already saved them in a backup file with Samsung Kies (if that will work?).
2. Is it easy to go back to the stock ROM if I have the desire to do that?
3. With the stock ROM i have now, I tried to uninstall Skype and re-install it again. However, an error 24 popped up in Google Play, and I see that many others have problems with this occurring! I am apparently unable to install Skype again on my phone. How can I fix this still on the stock ROM?
Thanks for all the help,

I did a factory reset (stock ROM) and Skype is now working again.
I plan on installing CyanogenMod in the nearest future, but I need to know:
1) How I can import my contacts and messages from stock to CyanogenMod, and
2) Whether it is easy to get the phone back to the stock ROM again if I choose to do so.
Edit: I looked through my SMS's on my phone, and noticed that many of the messages duplicated themselves, and many of my own replies in the conversations are gone (my conversation bubbles in the convos). How come? If anyone can help me with this as well, I would really appreciate it. Thanks.

I don't know about text messages, but contacts should be backed up to your Gmail account automatically. If not you can turn that setting on and you wont have to worry about them when formatting.
1) You should use the sync option under your google account settings, just sync your contacts that way and your contacts will follow you into every new android based phone you'll use.
For sms messages - the sms database is located at the following location:
Code:
/data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/mmssms.db
I admit that I never used it myself, but i'm pretty sure that this is what you're looking for.
2) Easy or not, it's up to you to decide.... use this guide.
3) I have no idea

I've been having the exact same error (Unfortunately the process android.process.acore has stopped) for almost a week. In my case though, i have a Sony Xperia ZL with 4.4.4 stock rom, and i only obtain this error after installing facebook, messenger, trucaller, google calendar and/or onenote. With those uninstalled, both contacts and phone apps work fine, but right after installing one of them, the error comes back.
I already tried clearing contacts storage, calendar storage, contacts sync, contacts app data, with no luck, and I don't want to do a factory reset, nor flash.
Help
