Hi there,
I can post a question on the thread for this particular ROM so hopefully someone cleverer than me is watching this forum.
I have installed the resurrection ICS Remix 1.0 ROM on my S2 and it all worked perfectly....restored all my apps etc....and then realised that internet wont work and messaging wont work either. These are the only two apps I have found that wont currently work.
When I open up messaging after a few seconds the screen goes black and then 20 seconds or so later it says "unfortunately messaging has stopped" its a similar story with the browser.
If anyone can help I would appreciate it. This ROM looks awesome but I cant live without messaging and internet obviously.
Thanks in advance
Wipe/factory reset. If not, do a clean install of rom (do not restore apps/data; particularly system apps).
its the restore thing
I think your probably right............I did restore my messages and I think I pressed app + data.......I dont think I did anything to the browser though.

for anyone with the same problem........I did the wipe user data thing in the recovery console which worked a treat.

Hello,
Got the 'apps stuck on installing' problem with the Market on new 2.1 firmware. I've read in other posts that it's possible to fix this by clearing the Market cache and data. However, on the X10 it's only possible to clear the Market cache and this doesn't seem to fix it.
Anyone found another way to fix (because I stupidly uninstalled the 'stuck' apps from the Apps Management settings menu and now I can't reinstall them )?
Generally enjoying 2.1, though (Angry Birds! )
Thanks!
I had this happen last week with a number of apps (all stuck at "Installing") at once. There was no option to cancel, and rebooting didn't help. Eventually, I just re-flashed my firmware (and added JIT to boot).
Knock on wood... so far so good.
errase all data of google, restart. click on market put ur data , must be fix it. thats wut i did

I tried deleting the Google account from within 'Settings->Accounts & Sync' but the X10 told me that other apps were using this account and the only way to remove it was to factory reset the phone. How did you erase all your Google data?

I was really hoping not to have to do that - it's taken a while to get the X10 running something like I want it after the 2.1 update
Download the apk from somewhere else of the thing you installed thats stuck and install it. That restarted the one I accidentally uninstalled while updating it
In my case fixed with reflashing, nothing else was helpful

Have you rooted your X10? If so, make sure ou install and use Titanium Backup. If you keep your backups up-to-date, re-flashing is a minor inconvenience as you can restore (almost) everything to the way it was.
No, I've not rooted it. Generally I just use the phone and apps and don't try to do anything too techy with it. Is it still worth rooting (apart from to use Titanium Backup?)
i deleted my facebook app from my tablet yesterday and now i cannot find it in the market, i downloaded a FB apk from this forum but it gives me a log in error. is there a way to get my archos tablet back to the orginal setting i tried reformatting , reset android all and i still cant get it to work..
i did the market hack about 50 times already too. i have SDE installed too i was on uruk droid at one point and i went back to the archos firmware.
anyone?
I used Titanium Backup on my phone to back up the apk and then used dropbox to get it to my Archos.
i can download it using app lib but when i log in it gives me an error
i wish there was a way to wipe everything off like everything just have a blank slate and then re install android. like i want it to be like the first time i turned the darn thing on

Mark, there is a way to wipe and start over.
Go to settings/repair and formatting...you can reset android which will just kind of reset everything back to new but won't delete anything. Or you can do a "full re initialization" (thats what they call it) and that will wipe everything. It will be like it just came out of the box.

Hi
So as the title says, the thing went like:
- I use checkrom revolution from some time now (currently at v4)
- I tried ICS remix rom from westcrip I think it was v7.3 no-wipe. I did't do a backup, this was my mistake
- As it was not as good for a daily use, I reflashed checkrom
- The shortcut to calendar had changed to something like "app not installed", when I go to add shortcut, calendar doesn't appear in the list
There is a Calendar.apk and CalendarProvider.apk in system/app, if I run it, it launchs an installer but at the end it says "Application not installed"
I know there are lots of calendar apps in market but I liked the default, so I'd like to know if there is a way to get it back :s
Any help will be appreciated

You don't run .apk files in /system/app. If the files are already there, they should be in your app list. If they're NOT in your app list, reboot. If they're still not in your app list, factory reset/data wipe. If they're STILL not in your app list, reflash checkrom.
EDIT: How are you adding the shortcut? Long press on the homescreen, or long press on the icon in your app drawer? Does the calendar show up at all in your app drawer?

Factory reset>flash stock again. BACK UP!!!>flash whichever ROM you like.
Saying "I didn't backup, my mistake" is a pathetic and lame excuse.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
It isn't in my app drawer either, I forgot to mention it in the OP, I was doing long press on homescreen. I've rebooted and reflashed checkrom, I was hoping for an option that didn't involve wipe/reset
And when I said I didn't backup was not meant as an excuse, just more information, in case someone asked if I did it / suggested to recover from backup

Wait - are you trying to flash back from ICS to a GB based ROM withOUT wiping? Yeah, as far as I know, that'll never work. You will HAVE to wipe.
EDIT: To be honest, I'm kind of surprised you're not seeing more problems and issues with your phone, if you DIDN'T wipe going from ICS back to GB.
That's right, I flashed back to GB from ICS with just cache/dalvik wipe and everything works fine, the calendar gone is the only problem I have.
Thanks for the answers, I guess I'd have to go with the wipe.

factory reset
[Resolved] Play Store & Mobile Network force closing, can't send/receive texts/calls
Hi there!
I installed the Resurrection Remix ICS AOKP ROM v.1.8.1 on my unlocked Galaxy S II i9100 a couple of days ago after factory resetting it, wiping the SD card, cache, etc.; completely getting rid of everything from the previous Resurrection Remix ICS ROM I had on there before.
Spent a lot of time customizing it over the past couple of days and not had any problems. I have a UK GiffGaff SIM which runs on the 02 network. There is a GiffGaff app on the Play Store that copies the correct information into your clipboard so that you can go through the steps of creating an APN easy as pie. However, whenever I go to Settings/More/Mobile networks a dialog box immediately pops up stating "Unfortunately, Settings has stopped." and puts me back to my app drawer. I spent a while trying to fix it, then loaded up the Play Store to look for APN apps, but whenever I try to download an app it comes up with the same message above with "Settings" replaced with "Google Play Store".
I've literally spent hours and hours getting extremely frustrated and would be very appreciative of some help as I currently cannot send or receive texts or calls, cannot use the internet without Wi-Fi and cannot download any apps.
Things on the top of my head that I've tried are deleting the vending.apk (Play Store) in the system/app directory and copying another version of the store over, clearing caches of numerous apps, clearing Dalvik cache, wiping cache partition in CWM, restored some apps and settings from my Titanium Backup backup (which replaced some of my customization that I worked hours on ) and searched for ages for the APKs of some APN apps. I even wiped data/factory reset the phone a few minutes ago, but I still can't access Mobile networks to input the APN and now Google Play Store isn't even in my damn app list anymore!!
Can someone help please?
Edit: Managed to get the Play Store back, downloaded an APN app successfully, opened it and it force closes!
RESOLVED: If anyone else has similar problems, just download the ROM that's installed onto your phone, install it again, boot into CWM, wipe cache, wipe Dalvik cache, fix permissions and reboot! Thanks JJEgan and Sun90
Clean re flash its the rom at fault .

Ohhhh myyyyyyyyy goddddddddd. I love you. Haha, downloaded and installed the ROM, now everything works completely fine!! Thank you so much I'll remember that tip for the future
By the way, are some of the textures and backgrounds in this ROM supposed to be.. messed up? Like, some menus such as Settings have completely dark checkered backgrounds which look ugly o_o And when I pull down the notification bar, there are a lot of blue diagonal textures which again, look ugly.
Is this just me or is it the ROM? If it's the ROM, are these textures being worked on?
Thanks again

Wow, I had no idea we could do this! Thanks a lot, haha, it all looks awesome now! One last thing if that's okay How can I customize what I see after pulling the notification bar down? I done a little Googling just now but kept finding apps that just customize the actual bar and not the bad textures after pulling it down.
Are there mods for that too?
Edit: Ah, will do! Thanks for informing me
2nd Edit: How do I close the thread?
Hi all.
My girlfriend has had the S3 for some 6 months now. The phone is not rooted, and is updated to newest firmware.
A month ago the stock gallery app started to freeze, when entering the gallery. Pictures are shown, but after that no response when trying to turn to next page or showing a pic.
A week ago the stock browser stopped showing pdf files, but only seems to be downloading endlesly.
We have tried to do a manufacture reinstall wth no luck. Firefox browser opens pdf documents with no hassle.
What to do when stock apps start to behave like this? Is there a way to uninstall and install stock apps again, without having to root the phone?

Stock apps are embedded ion the firmware files so apart from a factory reset or reinstall of stock firmware i would take it to a service centre .
Root has no bearing upon the problems and will not really help .

Huh? Who exactly are you talking to?
OP, I suggest you copy your files to your computer/laptop, then make a backup of anything else you need (contacts, messages, calender, s-memo, etc.). Factory reset the phone!
These problems really shouldn't occur but they can happen!
Thank you for your advice, all
