Then when i get a call i can answer and like normal but i look in my system app's and dialer and phone are there. When i attempt to install it says not installed and my phone app is not in my app drawer or my home screen and when i try and make it a icon on my dock and it asks which i go to applications and its not in there any help is appreciated.

Try wiping cache and dalvik cache before you restore it

darkrevenge v3 had an issue (my fault prolly) with the dialertabactivity.apk having a bad manifest...that download was only up for like 10 minutes before it was fixed...but it could be thats your issue if thats what was backed up

It was how should I go about fixing it

Problem with phone.... help

Ok heres whats happening....
first of all, my phone is rooted and i have the latest super clean and kernal.... this has been happening on a variety of kernals and roms tho..
Randomly, out of nowhere, my phone reboots. (maybe this is normal, the kernal is crashing?)
the problem is that once it comes back, i seem to be missing some system applications like my contacts app (whenever i click on contacts in the phone, it crashes, and i dont have a contacts app to click)
and sometimes, my phone Settings app.... if u try to click menu on the home screen and click settings, nothing happens..... and i cant place widgets..
I have to reodin the phone completely and start from scratch....
This happens like once every couple weeks or so....
any ideas?
Try flashing it again w/ data/cache/dalvik wipe

Has this problem happened to others or is my phone defective

It sounds like some of the apps may be incompatiable with the verison you're using. I had a somewhat similar problem when first getting into roms. It may be worth going back to stock and then reflashing to the latest SC.
Not sure.. If it was just a compatibility problem I think it would not work right away... The problem I'm having is random after a spontaneous reboot

Try fixing it by flashing stock rom then re root > rom install > cwm
Here's the guide I made

1. Yes swype works but you have to delete your current version of swype and install the new swype beta...do this from swype's website, sorry don't have the link handy, but it is an improvement from the previous version that comes with our phone
2.you can restore apps with TiBu but do not restore system apps, and when you do a batch restore, make sure you select apps only not data...not doing that well get you fc.city!
3.I just downloaded all three and start with hl and work my way down to ll...not sure of a way to see the kernel leakage, all I can ever find is the version name, never if its hl,ml,or ll?? So I start with high and work down so its easy for me to remember

I restored "missing apps + data" but it still didn't restore everything. I had to go through manually and restore the apps I was missing. I don't even know if I restored them all now.
But anywho I tried installing my transparent themed google search bar but it just FC'd on me. So i tried reflashing gapps but now I can't re-install it. From the market it force closes too.

From all of your force close issues it sounds like you missed wiping something when you made the switch to cm7...honestly I would take the time now and odin back to stock and reinstall it shouldn't take more then 15 mins or so since you already should have all the files you need.

Thats why I think you should re flash...I've never had to install google search it's just there when I flash the rom, I always flash the gapps.zip after the rom and never actually checked to see if it was on my phone prior to flashing the gapps...did you do that?? If you did I'd try flashing the gapps.zip again

Well I reinstalled it but it looks to have messed up my back ups in titanium. Look. I'm missing apps too!

Why would it say I have no back ups? ? I have no idea what apps I've lost now.

I batch restored. Once google apps was done installing everything market started restoring a bunch of apps (not all). After that was done I went to titanium and installed
Missing apps + data.
One key difference is that I ticked the option in settings for support for moving data between incompatible roms.
I was having some issues though. Turns out when I upgraded from the old to recent version of glitch kernel I unknowingly put low leak over high leak and with out the removal script. It was almost perfect except every now and then a program would crash.
I wiped data, dalvik and cache. Reinstalled the rom. Let it boot. Installed glitch. Let it boot. Installed google apps and went from there. haven't under volted but that's more about which version of the kernel I have and the battery and speed are so goods already, I'm not worried about it.
I also went through my app list and manually restored data for previously installed apps that I needed. Also eliminates problems with data you don't even need. Then sms restore to restore sms and call log.
The in call sound is still a little quiet though. Luckily my friends, colleagues and I don't use voice calls.
Only a 4 chan app force closes now but it's crappy so that's not surprising.
I hope that helps someone.

I'm getting constant force closes now. Just randomly out of the blue. Sad day . Also reboot locks up my phone and I have to pull the battery

I had that. Reboot into recovery. Sounds like you need to do that through adb now. Wipe cache and dalvik. Fix permissions and reboot. Worked for me when that happened. I almost thought I couldn't reboot but I was patient and eventually thw fc tapered off to just google framework and I was able to get the power menu.

Yeah I did that. But now it's back again. It seemed to have only momentarily fixed it. I wiped again and more force closes. I'm beginning to think it has something to do with titanium backup!

I've been on fence about trying CM7. I run it on my Nook Color and like alot. But I depend on my phone for work and I'm worried about all issues I read people are having, particularly call volume. I can't afford to annoy a client with phone issues in this economy!
What is consensus - is this a dependable daily driver?

GO-LAUNCHER EX users >> Is there a way to backup/Restore the screen widgets?

I use GO-LAUNCHER EX > and every thing is cool....The best there is!
but every time I change a Rom > after I Restore screen configuration >> the widgets are Not included , and I have to reinstall them one by one
Is there a way to backup/Restore the screen widgets???

No, it's an android limitation that widgets and locations can't be backed up and restored, that we hope will be fixed with ics

Not possible to Restore after flashing a new ROM but with Desk Migrate you can copy widgets from this launcher to that.
What about using Titanium backup and back up both the app and the data? It might work

Titanium backup restores the settings but you only get an error loading widget where the widget used to be.

Go Backup & Restore claims to have the feature, but it's buggy and doesn't always work half the time ya get the same "Problem Loading Widget Error" I've tried everything from copying my existing Go Launcher folder to my sd card and restoring it upon new rom install and it only worked one time then never worked again.
And you necroed a 2yr+ old thread to say that, eh (which everybody worked out around the time that thread was created) ?

Apps freezing & crashing on ICS. Anyone else ??

Visual Voicemail freezes my phone for about 60 seconds, then a message pops up, " Unfortunately visual voicemail has stopped."
This has also happened with a couple other apps which i can't remember exactly which ones atm.
Anyone else experience this or have advice on how to fix?
I'm experiencing the same problems since I upgraded to Samsung official ICS rom and rooted it. My Google apps are unstable and force closing all the time and making my phone ridiculously slow cause it waiting for it to respond which never happened.

All stock, no rom, flash or root.
Tx ---art.
Since you're rooted. You must have CWM. Go in recovery(Google the steps), wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, and fix permissions.
Then you should be good

Any clue on whats causing these system errors

Everytime I use Facebook messenger ill receive these errors one right after the other. They appear after I send a message or shutdown the app. I uninstalled and re-installed and the same thing keeps happening. Thanks in advance.

I have problems with messenger when I have the chat heads active. I will receive the system ui crash lots of times and then when I disable it I never see the error again. Might be worth a try?
I've had the chat heads disabled since they first came out, not a fan.
Well I narrowed it down at least. It was my launcher (GO Launcher) I set sense as my default and used FB messenger and didn't receive the messages. No to figure out why. I'm gonna contact GO as they have EXCELLENT customer service, partly the reason I use their products.

Huh that's strange that you all of a sudden started getting errors with that launcher even though you've used it for a long time. Glad that you were able to get it narrowed down though and hopefully they will have an idea of what's wrong and how to fix it
