I Been Having a problem lately with my phone ever since i upgraded to froyo 2.2, the problem when i send pictures to my girlfriend it never lets me send pictures the error that gives me is "error in server response" what u guys think sorry if i this have been posted before i just couldnt find a solution...
Did you make sure that the settings for mms are correct in the apn? I know some of the roms do not have apn's preloaded so you have to configure it yourself.
Yeah im sure the only wierd problem is that it only happeneds only when i send try to send pictures to her... its wierd...

Are you putting in her area code? I don't know why you would be able to send to other people and not her other than the number being put in wrong or her phone not being able to receive mms.
yeah im sure.. it suxs big time lol... the ROM that im using is MACNUT R14 Final

Now, I don't know much about that protectular rom, but your problem has happened to me on the stock rom believe it or not. It got fixed by me getting a new phone with stock
So I recommend re-flashing MACNUT R14 Final for it probably was/is just a bad flash.
Are they dirty pictures? Maybe she doesn't want them

After flashing did you reboot after several minutes cause I know some roms need to rebooted. Also, which launcher are you using?
I know this is going to sound weird and it might be just a coincidence but I had the same exact problem you were having only I couldn't recieve any text messages from my wife and thought it was a problem with a rom. I flashed axura but that didn't fix it so I flashed back to Nero. I decided to use ADW launcher instead of Launcher Pro. The second I did that, all the test text messages I sent myself came flying through at once. Again, it might just be a coincedence but you should give it a try just for the fun of it.
i have the regular launcher that came with the ROM im gonna take ur word ...

I just flashed the most recent CM7 update for Galaxy S and I have NO data connection, thus I'm thinking this is a problem with trying to flash this on our device model... Their FAQ says to lock and unlock your phone to fix this, however, that has not worked. Thus I ask if any dev would like to try and fix this so us vibrant users can have us some CM7 goodness?

Download this app and see which APN you are using. Also, with the app you can do a backup of your APNs and it will create a folder on your internal storage. Go to that folder and delete the file that it created then go back to the link with the APNs and download the "APNManager" zip file, unzip it, then move that xml file into the folder for the app and then go back to the app and use "Restore". See if that helps. After restoring it you might need to manually select the "AT&T US HSDPA"

Sent from Atrix 4G running CM7 ICS Final @ 1.2Ghz
Yeah, nothing wrong with a reboot and wiping dalvik cache/cache. (Not sure how that would effect anything though)
I'm stumped, could be a rom issue. Maybe check your build.prop file to see if there are any "tweaks" related to 3G

hi... i have been searching for a rom which is as close to stock roms provided by samsung.... read sumwhere samsung i9000's rom has been ported to vibrant but i couldnt find any... ic anybody knows anything abt this or any other gb rom with touch wiz, plz let me know...
thanks.
Using Odin to go back to stock would probably be a best way to do it, but if you're dead set on a ROM you could look here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1036193
And specifically here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24149078&postcount=224
Hopefully that link still works, but if it doesn't I think that Moped Ryder has a thread where he rehosted those files. You'll have to look around for it though.
Nice thing about that ROM is that it comes rooted, and busyboxed for you.
i want a gb rom, not 2.1 or 2.2. so i think i am stuck with either cm7 or those simply honey and simply stock roms wich are heavily themed. i dont like thems.... read a guide about porting gb roms of i9000 i think will have to giv it a shot....

yep gud rom.. but video playback is not upto the mark in this rom...
I know your asking for a GB ROM but you should really move on, Chimera 1.1 is the future. Go ahead and install Chimera 1.1 ROM, if you don't like this ROM then something is seriously wrong. I would recommend Platypus kernel if you do switch over. Chimera comes with a custom installer with multiple options for kernels, apps, keyboards etc. The custom installer is awesome, you can literally set it up to install whatever you want and whatever you DONT want. www.team-passion.com is where you will find it, try it seriously! Worst thing that happens is you don't like it but its really the best ROM i have ever used, period. If you do install, choose apex launcer or even samsung launcher if you want the samsung look, the cndlauncher has problems so do not install it! O yea, 911 has been proven to work on chimera also, try it dude.

No to go too far off topic, but if you are running ANY ICS rom, you need to be aware of the risks of this bug. It doesn't descriminate. Just yesterday, someone Odin'd to JFD and flashed all the way to ICZen (which has been the least effected ROM) and got it. Fortunately he was able to somehow get it back to full working status, but if you are unaware to what this bug is, I suggest at the very least to make a backup of your internal_sd. The internal is what gets Encrypted and right now there is NO key and only a handful of people have come back from it. There is no solution or concrete cause for this bug.
Good Luck.

JBQ from Google confirmed in a post on a Google group that Android will assume any partition that doesn't contain valid data or zero is encrypted:

Yup, with encryption support in ICS, Android has become a lot more
picky about having all the filesystems initialized with valid data,
and mistakenly assumes that anything that's not zero or valid is
encrypted, refusing to go any further.
In Gingerbread and before, anything that wasn't valid was expected to
be invalid, and Android would just re-initialize it, regardless of
whether it was zero or not.
You're lucky you didn't have to work with Honeycomb, where zeros were
considered encrypted.

If you read the EU threads, it's obvious life goes on post-EU. I got hit a while back, partitioned an external sdcard, and then used the emmc / sdcard swap to deal with the loss of access to my internal sd. If I get hit again, it's much easier to manage the situation with a portable ext sdcard. For one person, it was as simple as a chkdsk from a pc fixing the issue without losing any data.
Everyone's risk tolerance level will vary, but the benefits / performance and dev progression of ICS far out weigh any reason for me to consider downgrading. Imo, it's nasty, yes ... yet a manageable situation as long as you know the risks (and be proactive about backing up your data to another device or cloud acct).
Since EU, I religiously keep my TiBu data sync'd in Dropbox and consciously steer towards apps with online sync / backup capabilities, etc.
Moral of the story is ... once you go thru it, it's only as painful as how well you've heeded this man's sage advice:

... I suggest at the very least to make a backup of your internal_sd. The internal is what gets Encrypted ...
