[Q] Can't get to Conversations.apk settings - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

Ok, first of all - I'm seriously gonna buy somebody a big beer if he can tell me how to repair the stuff below without reflashing. No kidding...
- Whats the problem?

Click to collapse
When I go to default SE massager (conversations.apk), and hit the "Settings" option from the menu I get a force close... No way I can get in to that settings, and I need them to disable the standard notifications.
- How did that happened?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Well I'm not sure, but I think I deleted some stock apk that I was just not using (ofc from system/app folder). The Conversation.apk is there obviously, but like I've said, settings in it - not reachable because of the force close.
It's hard for me to say which app is responsible for that. I am sitting, and restoring them one-by-one with no effect. Maybe I miss some... Don't really know
Ofc I've tried to delete, and restore Conversations.apk (new), I've even installed a X10i version, but still - the same problem.
Reflashing is not an option for me, so I have a big problem. Be thankful for any suggestions.

Doesn't help you, but I have the same issue, a reflash doesn't help have just got into habit of clearing notifications after every text.

@batwingnz
Thanks for replay. Hope someone can help us. The problem is really annoying, and after your post I have no clue wtf generates it... :/

Done! -Tutorial-
Wow, finally I found a way to get rid of this problem once and for all!
This took a while, but anyway...
I've installed the stock "SEMCSettings.apk" from old 1.6 (attached to post).
Simply:
- copied apk to system/app
- changed permissions
- restarted the phone
Voila! Now theres no force close when trying to get in the messages settings.
Quick Edit: The SEMSSettings.apk from 2.1 also works great on that issue

You are the MAN!!! So many thanks!!!

[Q] com.google.process.gapps has stopped unexpectedly

This just started randomly last night. When I try to do a search for an e-mail this error comes up.
Sorry!
The process com.google.process.gapps has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again. dumpstate_app_201008091032_google_process_gapps.log has been saved. use *#9900# to copy out log.
Just found another thread on this topic. Mods you may delete.
Having an issue with this error too when phone initially starts up. I'm also unable to download anything from the market now. I can pull an app up and click on install and it says its downloading but nothing happens.
Last things I did was the lag fix and deleted some bloatware apks.

That also happened to me after deleting bloatware! One or more of the removed apps is causing the error after bootup and the Market not downloading apps problem..
I only deleted files that someone in another thread said were OK to delete.....
Did you guys removed the email.apk too??
Ya, email and a couple of the Talk/Google Talk apks. Is the Email apk what's causing it?
LOL you guys deleted "Google Talk" while you thought you were deleting bloat-ware. Here is a little lesson well learned. Do not delete anything unless you know what the hell you were doing. I have the files you guys need on my computer somewhere. I will attach them as soon as I fend them. Until then do NOT delete anything else.
Here you go Nubs. LOL sorry but I just had to call you noobs after doing this. All good though. We all make mistakes.
Install these in this order:
1. TalkProvider.apk
2. GTalkService.apk
3. Talk.apk

I didn't; but now I do know which apps where causing it!!!!! Thanks to jrwingate6 for the heads up and the link for the apps. I had already fixed mine by installing all the apps back. I just didn't know which one/ones where the root cause of the problems!
Edited:
Got those files installed and took another reboot and everythings doing what it should be now. Thanks again :]
I'm glad your phones are back to working order.
do you also have these files for android 1.6?
thank you
You saved my butt , thank you very much for doing this !!!

jrwingate...is there a fix and if yes what are the procedures without deleting the apk files?

brightness force close

I have a little bug of sorts, it seems. My screen brightness seemed to be flickering around, so I went to settings>display>brightness to try to adjust it, and I am getting "the application settings (process.com.android.settings) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again". Does anybody know why this is happening and how to fix it? TIA...
I am having the same problem. Some say to uninstall fonts, but it did not work for me.

Thanks for the response. Is it your understanding that one or more individual fonts need to be deleted, or does the whole folder needs to be deleted with Root Explorer, or what exactly needs to be done? I'm willing to try it, the display is the best part of the phone and I can't stand looking at dullness constantly.
Maybe a bad flash or something?
Odin work or have you not tried?

Yeah, in addition to the brightness thing I was starting to get the random shutdowns again, which is the only thing I hate worse than the brightness problem. Just reflashed, all seems well. I never did understand the concept of a "bad flash", but I guess that's what happened. It either flashed or it didn't? What do I know? Thanks much...
FIXED. So it looks like if you assigned a font then uninstalled the font without changing the system font first, it will cause this problem. I reinstalled all of the fonts (cause I could not remember which one I had last) and Bam, I could get into my display settings.
This has been killing me for weeks!

[Q] Stock SMS App - SalsaSense-1.3 Beta

Hi everyone.
I am using the SalsaSense ROM. I am unable to post in that thread because I am new here, so I'm hoping someone here will be able to help me.
In the stock SMS app there is the option to delete old messages once a limit has been reached. I installed the ROM, recovered my messages, and enabled the option in the stock app with the limit set at 200. But my old messages are not being deleted. With one contact I have 7k+ messages, and since enabling the option I have sent and received several messages with them. When I had Elelinux-7.1.0-Hero-v2.6 installed beforehand, following these steps was enough to provoke it to keep my inbox in check. But not now.
Is this a problem with the ROM, or the stock app, or am I just unlucky?
I'm hoping someone here may have come across this and can help me out.
Many thanks, BurnseyBoi
I think you've been unlucky. It sounds like a ROM problem since it's beta.
You could delete them using an app like SuperSMS Delete (I think it's that).
Yeah, guess I'll just have to wait for an update to it. I had a look round the market and found the app you were referring to. Worked a charm, thanks very much! Now my phone is a bit speedier.
Yeah i noticed this, unfortunately its a problem with the ROM. I've got a lot of issues to iron out so it takes me a while to solve each one, rest assured though it will be fixed

Awesome, glad to hear it
I love this ROM! I forgot how much I missed the little Sense features and looks. My friend just got himself a Sensation, which is where I got the idea to browse around for a Sense ROM. Many thanks!

I'm trying to follow the build.prop editing suggestion, but adb doesn't list my phone under connected devices. I've tried while the phone is on, and in recovery.
Is there another way of successfully editing it?
Yeah, you can use Root Explorer from the Market. ES File explorer may work too, look in the app's settings for Root options.
Navigate to the directory with the build.prop and long press and I think there's an edit option if you use Root Explorer. Then you can just edit as you would normally via the phone.
Thanks! I already had ES File Explorer, didn't realise it had root options though.
Made both changes that JieeHD suggested, then powered it off and back on. I've never seen my phone go from power button to lock screen that fast in the 2 years I've had it! I definitely notice a speed improvement from making those changes. Everything just feels sharper and more responsive.
Many thanks!

I've tried them and can confirm they do speed things up.
Wish there was some option to use a standard notification bar, I think it would help.

CM7 2.0 Bugs i5500

Thought rather than creating a new thread for each bug found in subpsyke's latest release of CM7 for the i5500 (20120206) we should just compile them here, perhaps make life slightly easier for the developer???
BB
I5500NEJP1
Upgraded form CM7 1.9 hf3
Couldn't install apps from the market, phone gave 'not enough space' error during install of apk. I experienced a similar problem in early versions of CM7.
Also theme chooser app behaving strangely, only two available themes in there, one of which was not displayed correctly.
MUCH LOVE TO THE DEVS FOR THE SMARTPHONE REPUBLIC.
Good initiative on creating this thread!
I´m having the same problem with the theme chooser, where it won´t display one of the themes. I have 3 themes, and one of them (androidian) displays as a black rectangle.
So far, nothing other than that.

Everytime psyche release a new version of te CyaogenMod porting for our GT-I5500 I take a look into the zip file of the rom.. I do that 'cause I use to remove some bloat I don't use and something I don't need, like live wallpapers, quite all the CM wallpapers (which i finf horrible), File Manager (I insert RootExplorer), ADW Launcher (I get my version of ADW Launcher EX) and so on..
Usually I also use to remove 2 of the 3 defult themes of this rom, 'cause I never liked them.. They were called Androidian and Cyanbread, if I well remember..
but this time, in version 2.0 I cannot find anymore those themes, so I assume that only the default theme this time is been installed into this version..
Infact into my Theme Chooser there is only the default theme (and the 2 I installed after first use, I love LunarUI!! )and much of all I cannot notice any error on Theme Chooser!!
I think that you could consider wiping your cache and your data; if this could not help flash alla gain from start! If you don't want to loose your data (but I'm sure you have not so much data after 1 day of use, or you already backup before flash this new version) wait for a psyche reply (if he will read) or post directly into the MadTeam forum..
Anyway, for me, no error till now.
2.0 - h2
Forgot to mention, wasn't able to download apps from the market while connecting through wifi.
Browsing was fine but had to connect through 3G to get the app to start downloading.

A rather strange thing happened today: when the alarm came on, the screen was totally black, and i could not set the alarm off. The phone was charging, so i unplugged it, and after a while the screen came back on.

I guess it took a while for the Alarm program to load.
It happens to me with calls sometimes. I might be browsing the web, then I get a call, and I can't answer it because the screen is black. It would be good if we could answer with the physical button, but I can't find any settings to get it working.

I had no idea this was possible do i have to unzip>edit>rezip or can i just replace the files with a zip explorer?
finally i can have rootexplorer as my system file manager
I´m getting a lot of screen-related bugs...
I´m gonna do a wipe, re-install, and see if it gets better.
Is the any way to backup all my data and apps, so i don´t have to download it all again?
Thanks

Titanium Backup * Root is what you need here. It should come preinstalled on all android devices in my opinion.
It will allow you to backup all your existing apps and system data to your SD card so one you've reflashed your device you need only download Titanium and restore them.
- You could save a copy of the Titanium apk to your SD so you wouldn't even have to download that

sure you can, but you will indeed loose the signature/md5 of the file, but if you don't use the signature verification in CWM you won't need it.. anyway you MUST pay attention when modifying those files, 'cause they will go to replace system files into your phone, so be sure they are not corrupted (for example veryfy files with the archive manager).
Usually I use to unzip all the folder and then zip it again: but I do that 'cause I need to remove / change a lot of files (I remove all non italian/english languages, for example).. if you want to remove only the FileManager.apk you can do that directly with WinRAR: remove it and then add RootExplorer.apk (I follow the same name style)..
Just a little note: I'm not sure that all the apk you will put in will work!! For example once I tryed to do that with SamsungApps apk but it didn't start!!
enjoy!!
Anyone else having crash issues (stops responding) with the calendar?
Particularly the day view? It seems that it hangs half the time I'm trying to use it, particularly if I try to sweep it before doing anything else.
This with 2.0 and hotfix2 applied, using Finnish language.

Yes, same thing here. If I try to change days, the applications freezes.
I am experiencing a lot of crashes and freezes. I did a full wipe before the install, but i´m still having problems. Anyone else?

Well, when i open the calendar in 1 day view, if i navigate to the sides using the navigation buttons, the app freezes and after a while i get an error message saying the app is not responding, and i have to force-end it.
This doesn't happens if i use the touchscreen, only if i use the navigation buttons.
Asides from that, i´m getting random crashes and freezes that didn't happen in v1.9... i´m considering a downgrade.

Galaxy S 3 Crashes when copying to clipboard!! Help!

About 2 days ago my galaxy S3 started crashing the app when i would i would copy something to clipboard in that particular app. Happened in messages, contacts, and I'm testing what other apps.
but no1 has figured out a fix yet. I am running go launcher and have a feeling that, that might be the issue. I really don't want to factory reset -_- but if I have to i will. anybody?
if you think that Go luancher maybe the issue, why not just download another launcher from the market and see if it goes away while your running that launcher ---- i would do this first instead of a factory reset.

just tried apex launcher, and even went back into touchwiz and the same problem occurs. ill hold down a message or a contact. press copy message text or whatever else, and the black screens and a FC. Stock browser and stock contacts. I tried copying text from an email, but the interesting thing now is if i go to long press in any composition field i don't get a past option. Just a "clipboard" option and pressing that doesn't do anything
Have you tried Wiping Delvik Cache and fixing permissions in CWM??
I had the same problem and a factory reset sorted it out....try doing it

Hi everyone,
I also had this problem, I found a solution without do a factory reset.
The app in question is TestService.
First you have to clean the directory /data/clipboard, delete everything in it with root explorer. After that, go to manage applications and find the app TestService, uninstall the updates.
After a reboot, copy/paste should work again.

It will crash whatever you try to copy from. The factory reset was the only thing that fixed mine seeing as I didn't want to root my S III immediately.

Same thing happening to me on my samsung galaxy tab. Started two days ago, as well. Samsung tech support told me to reset to factory. I don't want to, I have too many apps, picture, videos etc on my tab. BUMMED I read about stopping testservice. Did that, still no joy. Said to clear data/clipboard folder. I checked, and NO clipboard folder can be found in my data folder.
