Good Day!
Well, Sprite Backup is not working and I took the backup using Sprite Backup. Second issue, Phonebook not showing the contacts, despite the fact that I tried many times. The contacts are restored as evident from the Messaging, as I can select the recipient, however, the Phonebook is showing "No Contacts".
Can anybody help? especially a way to install Sprite Backup.

i wrote to Sprite backup support so lets see what they answer, but i did backup with SE backup and restore (UI seems the same as on Sprite ) even with MyBackup pro, gmail backup etc...
Try to check your google account Contact if u have contacts in different group then My Contact it would do the restore, at least i havent figure it out how to pick Group to restore as on 1.6 version

Well, apparently for me, i'm not able to remount via adb.. getting "mount: Operation not permitted" any ideas? anyone?

Restarts
damn my phone is restarting when I switch to any map application. Wisepilot, GMaps it either will not connect or it will restart and this process is draining the battery like crazy..

Before I used to press hold on a message I could add the contact, now I can't why the hell did they take this out?

I have been trying to charge my phone through the AC adaptor, but it doesnt seem to be charging at all in fact the overall charge is actually decreasing. Also when the phone is off and I plug in the usb to charge it boots to a black screen showing a large battery charging icon. Anyone else?

Ok, how you get the latest back up and restore app.
1 download a barcode scanner app from the market.
2 load up pc companion
3 select update software
4 in the disclaimer about updating it advices you to back up all personal data, with in that there is a link to get the latest version of back up and restore from SE website.
5 follow the link and scan the barcode with your phone from the website
6 it should now download and then install it.
7 should be done. This works, I did it earlier and im still on 1.6 and I now have the newest one that backs up play now and market links.
This should be easy aslong as your comfortable with all the above steps, piece of cake honestly

X10 - 2.1 nordic generic - battery drains very fast!!!!!
Hi guys,
I've updated to 2.1 and so far I found the battery to last less than 1 day, when in 1.6 (024 FIRMWARE) this would last like 2 full days with normal usage....
For sure somethings going on here... which applications might be the cause??
thanks

Apparently its meant to get much better after you let the battery run out and next boot up its meant to improve after that. I'm sure I read it on one of the various 2.1 threads on here

Android 2.1 Market - Apps not downloading

I've just upgraded to android 2.1, gained root but am now stuck with market not downloading. I've searched a bit for the solutions but apart from the standard uninstall of market updates (which I don't have nor do I have the option of removing updates) I didn't find anything useful. Anyone having the same problem or preferably a solution to the problem? :/
And yes, otherwise it runs perfect.
Did you do a full restore using Titanium Backup? I found that broke a couple of things for me, including wifi and the market issue you mention. I had to reflash to get it working, and then be more selective with my Titanium restore.
I did a clean slate - reset to factory settings then upgraded to 2.1. I didn't use any restore app (although I have rerware backup app and backups) and everything else works like a charm apart for the market downloads which is a bit of a hassle. Is there a built in file browser in android or any other way to run the applications downloaded (have some apk but can't reach them from within the phone). This is a bit annoying :/
The only thing you can try is the suggestions on the numerous threads about Market issues.

Q: Android market behaves strangely and some of my download seems stalling, what’s up?
A: As I understood it from browsing lots of forums yesterday this seems to be a general issue with Android Market (at least in the Nordics) and should be temporary.

I was having this problem until i signed into Google Talk (just launch the app and it should sign in).
Then I had no problems downloading apps from the market.
@bix: thank u so much. Lucky I froze my talk istead of delelting it. Defrosted them and my market working again! ;-)

[Q] Lagging in Message app and while typing

Hey guys, my Hero just started lagging with FroydVillain 16.xx version. First of all I thought this was just too many programs, or something like that, so I decided to wipe my phone and install new CM version. But then I got error for wipine an ext. I was suggested try wipe ext via ADB, but nothing happend neither. So I just installed the ROM anyway.
Everything was working, but after couple days it started lagging again. The most sensible feeling with SMS's. Then I'm opening new SMS from notification's bar, it takes forever to show me the text. The same with conversations list in Message application. There is also a lag while typing (AnySoftKeyboard with Lithuanian Keyboard).
The same happend today after reinstalling FroydVillain 17.2 with new RA_Hero 17 recovery. Installion was made yesterday. Now I have ~100 SMS's, if it has anything in common.
Any ideas, guys?
This is my apps' list: appbrain.com/user/karolism/
Well for me if I don't restart my phone every few days it slows down, are you overclocked? if not it might help, also some applications might not close properly and drain battery and other resources and lastly the Hero was built with old technology when it was new (I read this somewhere a while after I got my phone but I could be wrong).
Thank you for the reply. Could you tell me more about overclocking? I'm new at this.

SGS3+CWM+CM10 - n00b flashing questions

Hi all
Sorry if this has been posted before or if I'm in the wrong section. I've tried to learn as much as possible, but as a complete noob to Android, I'm finding it a tad unmanageable.
What happened:
So first I rooted my device with Odin and CWM6.4. I used CWM to make a backup of my device on the internal SD, as I have no external. I then installed Mobile Odin Pro and flashed first CM9, then the LFB modem, then CM10 and then GAPPS. I then reset my device, or whatever the option was called to delete everything, which the guide said was required.
I'm now running the CM10 released yesterday (06082012) and everything seems to be running well. However here are some questions, that I hope you can help me with:
1) I liked the touchwiz widget for the weather and clock. Can I get this back somehow?
2) I liked the swype keyboard and tried installing swiftkey3, but this does not have swype apparently. Can I somehow get swype again?
3) When I installed CM10, I had to delete everything, which meant I lost all my apps and their files. Is this standard when flashing? I would like to fiddle around and try some different roms/kernels, but it would get tiresome if I had to reinstall everything from scratch every time.
4) Since I got CM10 instead of stock, the screen seem to be generally much brighter and drains a lot more power from the battery. I've tried setting it on automatic, but it doesn't seem to adjust the screen brightness even if I try covering up the sensor with my finger. Does anyone know why? Is it because I'm using software which is under development or is there an easy fix?
5) I've tried getting it to transfer my contacts from facebook to my contacts on the phone, but it just doesn't seem to happen since CM10. Is there something I can try to get it working? Also before I had the option in the facebook app under app settings and could check a box here to make it sync. Now the sync option seems to be under Android homescreen --> Settings --> Accounts --> Facebook --> check to synchronize. It says it synched like 30 minutes ago, but I can't see the contacts.
Thanks a lot for any help you can provide!
Regards Casper

Lets answer your questions one by one..
1. You cannot get tw Widgets on cm10..as it uses the framework which is different from CM10..try other widgets from the market..
2.you can download swipe by going to beta.swype.com and downloading it manually..or else install slideit pro..its also provides the same functionalitty..
3. You don't need to install everything when you reflash..use titanium backup root from play store to backup Apps+data ..and restore the apparel when you flash again..
4.might be a rom issue..remember it is still in development..
5.the settings I jb are in that way..try going to Facebook app..open the contact list..scroll up and down till al the contact pictures load..check you phone contacts again..hope it work..used to work earlier in gingerbread..
Don't mind the spelling mistakes..I am typing on a phone in a moving bus

[Q] A bit of a strange phone question

I have searched on phone issues and even messagebank... There was a post that seemed similar but not the same.
Unfortunately I can't say just where this issue came in; I only noticed it yesterday and, as mentioned in another thread, I have been trying out ROM flashing. My GUESS would be it has to do with flashing 'modem_CWM_I9300XXDLH7' but that is purely a guess because it is call related.
I have flashed a stock ROM, GT-I9300_XSA_1_20120710170916_9xjds9h0pm to install an Aussie ROM (phone from Kogan and was German model) and more recently flashed 'Kernel_CM10_20120820_Official_CWM' in preparation for trying a JB ROM. (I am planning on using 'I9300XXBLH4_Jelly_Bean_4.1.1_Clean_Stock_Rom_Nandroid_Backup' for a first try)
SO, phone seems to be working well; I managed to crash it (stuck on Samsung screen) but have backups that brought me back up to where I was without too many issues.
But, I noticed yesterday I got a Telstra Messagebank notification for a missed call/voice message. It says it came from +101 but when I click the notification it takes me to a Telstra recording saying the number is not connected. This used to work. Dialling 101 works just fine and I have looked to try to locate where the phone has decided MB is now +101 but can't find it.
It's not a biggie, and I figure maybe I need to call Telstra to get their info resent or something, but it is a little annoying to have to dial each time instead of just press the notification.
Any ideas of what to try? I'm about to flash the JB ROM so if that fixes it I will be back (hopefully without dramas ) soon. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
XXBLH4 is a really old JB leak, flash XXDLH8 instead (DLH9 is newer but has a keyboard bug)
As for your problem, I don't know what to tell you but your carrier won't be able to help you as you have unofficial firmware on your phone and that may be the reason and they will only be able to assist you in regards to the official Telstra fw.
Is it really that big of a deal to dial 101?

that is a strange one. It seems as though it's trying to dial 101 as an international call (with that plus in front of it making it a call to USA number 01), when it should have picked it up as +61 101.
Out of curiosity, what does it come up with when you tap and hold on the SMS and go to "View Message Details"?
@nodstuff - The reason for I9300XXBLH4_Jelly_Bean was because, a. I found it and the file date was something like 25/8/12, and because the description said it has been cleaned up and all bloatware removed. I don't recall seeing XXDLH8 for download but I am new here... I was thinking along the lines of getting something known and stable for my first JB flash.
@Dinty - I don't get a 'View Message' option on a long tap, I get a menu with, Call +101, Send Msg, Edit numbr, Add to Contacts, Send Nmbr, Add to Reject list, Delete.
Further info just noticed - older call from MB (30/8 - prior to new Modem flash) came in as Int'l M'Bank with #101# so somewhere the MB number has altered.
I doubt Telstra will have an issue with the FW etc. It isn't their phone. I bought outright and would be speaking to a rep - IIRC when I got my Moto Defy from the dealer a couple of years back they had to send me a txt which I saved and it set up the Telstra info on the phone. Might be mistaken in memory of that though...
@nodstuff - do you have a recommendation for a XXDLH8 ROM to flash? I'm looking for stable with some optimisation and as clean of standard apps as possible. I've got an Apps backup in Titanium Pro that I figure I can use to put my new apps back.
Also, is the Keybd issue with LH9 itself or just with some ROM's?
thanks for the help...

Well don't flash XXBLH4 so, its very buggy and not stable.
XXDLH8 is very stable and pretty bug free.
There are a few downloads for it (cwm flashable, Odin or an ota package. I suggest cwm or Odin method as the ota method is quite tricky.)

I believe you're talking about the automatic set-up service. I think this is what you mean:
http://www.configure.telstra.com.au/telstra/index.jsp
Not sure it will have any effect on that messagebank issue, but I suppose it doesn't hurt to try!

Thanks for the link - that looks what I originally had to do over the phone, but then I didn't have a Telstra account set up at that point.Didn't work unfortunately. le sigh!
So, I am now the owner of a JellyBean phone, all working nicely and with my apps installed again. All went smoothly and I just chose my purchased and download apps from my titanium backup and Voila!!!
I took the advice and installed GT-I9300_WanamLite.XXDLH8.V3.0.RC4.NO-WIPE - I thought about the DLH9 version of it but saw a note in the thread about keybd issues, so, taking the advice above I DL'd the DLH8 version.
Only thing I have noticed so far is it seems a bit slow on the USB charging. Once it's at 100% I will disconnect and see if maybe power is draining too fast, then look at ways to improve battery.
Just did some trials of the MB issue and noticed something odd - if I try to create a Contact I am unable to enter numbers in the name field. I also tried to set up my mobile banking and using the app provided by the bank I cannot use numbers for my ID, even though it is an 8 number ID. The Keybd simply will not change to numbers until I go to the PW line - is this the keybd error you mentioned as being present in DLH9, nodstuff??
Hm... so I took a chance and flashed Wanamlite's keybd fix; the thread says it is for DLH9 but I figured what the heck, if it fails the phone I can easily reflash the ROM.
Seems to have worked. Gonna leave a comment over there about it because I seem to have noticed something not mentioned by others.

Lost connection on Pebble (2.9v) issues with 5.0.1 (gooh edition N4 Port)

Hello,
Been using that rom for some time now, but still no luck with my Pebble. I realy use it, and get used to it. Now it almost 75% of the time is disconected. I tried everything. Previously on 4.4.2 I had no issues. But I wanted the new 5.0
I tried to write there in the gooh topic, but nonone seemed to care about it. and with the speed of 20 posts per hour, my question was fast lost in the conversation. Maybe someone else from the comunity had simmilar issue? Any advice will be greatly apriciated.

I have been having pebble connectivity issues, and I believe it's just rom compatibility because it's been an issue with all lollipop roms for me. This is what I did to fix the issues.
1. Uninstall the pebble app
2. Unpair the watch on both the phone and the watch
3. Install the app
4. Login and follow the instructions, pairing the watch using the app.
5. Make sure that notifications are turned on for it and that it is not greenfield.
6. Go in to settings, device, accessibility, make sure it's on
7. Go in to settings, sounds and notifications, notification access, enable it.
8. If a watch face is not updating (weather), switch to another face and then switch back.
I have found that restoring the app via Titanium Backup/Rom Toolbox, creates some issues too. Installing the app fresh from the market seems to be the most reliable.

Acctually I had it installed from TitBack!, also I'm not sure about Accessibility option (if it was or not) for now it works, but I'll see for how long.
Another issue is (was before too) that any notification are coming always doubled. That's sick

This not a ROM, but a kernel issue. Had a similar problem with my Xiaomi Mi Fitness Band. It would only connect reliably after I flashed Civato 3.5 kernel.
