[Q] Unfortunately Messaging has stopped on S3 - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi I am facing a strange problem. Got my S3 in India with LE8 firmware. All perfect, than I decided to install OMEGA V3, I could not make S Memo work on Omega Rom. On the same forum I was informed that since it was Deodexed rom and S Memo could not work on deodexed rom. S Memo was being used extensivelyused by me, I decided to install the stock rom XXALE8 and even tried XXALEF but get a message "Unfortunately Messaging has stopped". Only option is to install a third party app.
But where is the problem I am not able to sort it out. Can it be sorted out. Will I ever be able to install stock rom having stock messaging application. Any solution please.

You need to purge your internal memory cache and your emmc cache. It still thinks you are running a detoxed Rom

I had the same issue and it is related somehow to the CSC not being detected/installed correctly after flashing a new ROM.
I have spent hours and after flashing the latest UK generic ROM from the stock O2 one I had the same messages issues and Kies would connect.
After pressing x#1234# I saw the CSC was unknown and so I flashed back the O2 CSC and everthing started to work correctly. Then I have reflashed the latest UK unbranded ROM and after pressing pressing x#1234# the CSC showed correctly.
DO NOT WIPE RIPARTITION/ DELETE ALL DATA otherwise it will somehow cause the phone to set the CSC as unknown and then the messages error will come back.
After reistalling Kies for a few times it fininally decided to work, or may be it like the CSC?? Kies however does not let me upgrade firmware for some reason but at least I can sync my contacts
---------- Post added at 03:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:40 PM ----------
I have changed the CSC to the correct UK Generic BTU (UK):
1.Just type *#272*Device IMEI# at Phone dial pad.
2.Select the CSC that you want.
3.Click Install.
4.Phone will be rebooted by itself.
5.That’s all.
Afterword I have run a software update from the phone and upgraded to the latest firmware, kies confirmed it too

try this

[Q] Phone freezing after updating ROM

I've already asked in the relevant ROM thread but thought I'd try here in case anyone else has had a similar issue.
I'm currently running Westcrip ICS 9.4 and tried to update to latest version but phone freezes a few seconds after booting (have to restart/battery pull)
I've tried wiping data/cache/dalvik/fix permissions but get exactly the same problem.
I've tried flashing stock GB through odin which works ok and then flashing again but get exactly the same problem.
I've tried flashing bezkes aokp but get exactly the same problem.
Thankfully my 9.4 backup restores OK and runs without any freezes.
The only thing I think it might be is something dodgy/corrupt on my internal memory or SD card. Is it safe to wipe these? I dont want to move my backup as I've had MD5 problems when trying to restore in the past.
Does anyone have any other ideas? I've looked around on the forum/google but can't find anyone else reporting the same problem.
This is driving me mad!! Am I missing something?
No ideas?
Ill try again after clearing internal storage. Can someone recommend the best way to do this please?
I should have said that i get the freeze problems with no non rom apps installed...
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA
Well you are using buggy beta ICS base .
As you can flash and use a stock rom then the problem is the rom you are flashing .
Possible corrupt download .
jje
Thanks for the reply. I tried downloading again but still have the same problem with resurrection and bezke so will try loading a stock ics base through odin when i get home tonight. Do you think my 9.4 resurrection base could be the problem? I read that on earlier ics roms that you should flash stock ics first?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
No idea really but how can you flash a stock ICS its not released .
jje
I've been using Bezke's AOKP for 5 days now, without any problem, so the problem is definitely not in his ROM.
When you flash it, try the following:
after wiping data, cache and dalvik, go to mounts and storage and hit format system. It could do the trick maybe...

Arghh!!! Tried this and thought it had solved the problem. I've managed to install the new paradoxx rom now and even reinstall my apps and set up email account, but phone eventually freezes again. I've even started getting random freezes in CWM now! What I cant understand is why my phone is still rock solid running my westcrip 9.4 backup??
I think I might have flashed my phone to an early grave!!
That is really strange. Sorry that formatting system didn't help

[Q] Going back to 2.3.5

Hi! I have the Erygit ROM on my SGP 5.0 (with the physical button in the middle) how can i go back to Android 2.3.5?Can somebody help me?Thank you for your help
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1444636
See which one of the files fits your device. I think it's the international EU version for you.
thank you. i flashed it but i got into bootloop... tried to go to recovery... in the recovery i got many red lines (errors i think) about cache files or something like that.what should i do now?
Wait hold on I tried to flash Erygits ROM with ODIN but it failed and I soft-bricked it. I don't know what to do, I'm looking for solutions.
Well... Looks like we both need a solution :s
Sent from my YP-G70 using XDA
I couldn't get out of my soft-brick. Every thing I did resulted in a FAIL in Odin.
So i reset data and wiped everything and then it just booted.
Unfortunately I lost everything. Luckily I made a back-up, but somehow my contacts were removed from KIES
So i have to back up up everything and after flashing the rom , wipe cache and do a factory reset?

Well I don't know if you had, but I softbricked my player so I did a desperate thing by removing all data and cache. Then it was fine. I still have my music, photo's and video's though and my contacts (google contacts).
But I'm not sure about you. Look for bootloop threads on this forum, maybe you will find help?
I will try to help you too.
well i decided to flash Erygits rom one more time, then it booted i think i'll leave it until ICS is released or CM7 do you have the stock rom on your Player?
Yes I have the stock rom now.
And I think it's a good idea to just leave it untill cm9 comes out.
CM is going to be soooooooooo nice! can't wait to flash it
Do you guys have the INTL, EU or the US version?
You can't mix the ROMs between these ver. (especially the US ver, which is physically different - has capacitive home btn).
If you have a US device, than download this PIT, and this ROM, I installed it and works great, it's a rooted 2.3.6.
Hi!i have the eur version i think... With the physichal button in the middle

So... is this solved?
I guarantee if it isn't it would be by wiping data/factory reset + wipe cache + wipe dalvik cache and flashing the latest version of a reputable ROM.

I think so as well. If not fixed by that then the only other alternative is a hardware fault.

But could you suggest me a reputable ROM. and post its link please.
Well it sounds like an .apk problem.
Try: WanamROM for stock or RootBox2.1 if you want to go down the AOKP/CM10 route.
> G S II Android development. I'm sure you can find them yourself.
What is an apk problem?
I am having exactly the same problem with my Samsung Galaxy S2. I bought mine at T-mobile, it is a T-mobile branded phone, less then a month ago.
I did a factory reset a couple of times.That did not help.
I have not flashed my phone or anything like that. I do not even know what flashing is!

Try to do one of these solutions for the problem
Settings) application) running services) show cached process) camera) stop and clear data. Test your camera.
or
Settings Select Applications / Manage Apps Select Manage Applications Select All Select Camera and/or Android Camera Select Force Stop and Clear Data Turn your device off and back on. Test your camera.
or
If that did not work, please do a Google services reset:
Please go to Settings Select Applications Select Manage Applications Select All Select Google Services Framework Select Clear Data. Turn your device off and back on. Test your camera.
I still have the problem but maybe it will work for you.
I hope it will
Thanks a lot for your advice. Unfortunately it didn't work
What I find weird,is if I clear all data,it says 0.0 kb but after restarting my phone,it says 4.0 kb. Like it didn't cleared any camera data?
I am afraid there isn't anything left for me to do then go to a Samsung servicepoint....

I deleted all the files and directories in storage and then did a factory reset.
After that I can use the camera for a short while.
When I rebooted the phone, the camera goes blank screen again :crying:
So, anyway, this is likely a software problem and not hardware.

Are you quite sure its a software problem?
I've been facing this quite a few months. Problem started a few months after rooting with CF-Root and flashing Cyanogenmod 9 nightly(was working fine for few months). Since then have reflashed kernel (tried many Siyah kernels). It would work a while then become black screen again then again work sometimes.
Flashed Cyanogenmod 10. Would work intermittently now and then.
Finally flashed to stock official ICS ROM. Didn't help. Works for a while after the wipe and again a while if i do factory reset. But problem still persists.
Let me know if you find a solution. I'm really frustrated

[Q] Downgraded 4.0.4 -> 4.0.3 to beat brick bug, now getting 'App stopped' messages

[Q] Downgraded 4.0.4 -> 4.0.3 to beat brick bug, now getting 'App stopped' messages
Argghhh.
I've managed to use Odin to get from 4.0.4 to 4.0.3, but when the phone starts it stops responding to input as it's putting up a chain of error messages. It started with 'acore' has stopped. I googled and went and cleared the App Data for Contacts and Contact Storage. (Clear Cache wasn't enabled for either). I'm now getting other app stopped messages... LogsProvider, Maps, Voice Search etc etc.
Should I reflash? Or do a factory reset? Or do a Clear Cache and Clear Dalvik (Don't know how to do those, so brief tips welcomed!)
My next steps were going to be to install the Chainfire root + CWM rom (instructions from http://www.androidauthority.com/galaxy-s2-i9100-xxlpq-root-cwm-clockworkmod-recovery-65393/). Should I go straight into that instead?
Help would be appreciated. I'm normally quite geeky tech guy, but given the brick bug situation I'm erring on the cautious side with this
That. (As long as you're 100% sure you're not running a 4.0.4 kernel; if in doubt, flash a custom kernel first).

just flash a custom kernel like Siyah v 4.1.5 (tar file for ODIN) from pc odin to get a custom recovery and then do a Wipe data/factory reset to bring about stability.
ps- do backup all ur user apps using TB so that after wipe data u can restore all those apps back on ur phone.Also make a backup of ur contacts (if not synched to google) and text messages (SMS) using third party apps from stores.
I've backed everything up via Kies and My Backup, and after logging out of the Samsung account I got a bunch more 'stopped app' messages... it's resetting now.
<fingers crossed>
If that's ok it's on to the Chainfire update I mentioned before...
edit:
Yay, starts fine, no errors, thanks
edit2:
chainfire's kernel installed ok too. So I think I'll try MIUI until the official UK release of JellyBean.
Glad it's working for you now. You're welcome

Hello guys. I am currently using Slimbean RC1 and I made a backup of my rooted stock 4.0.4 with Siyah kernel so that when I restore my backup anytime in future then will not have any super brick risks. But I have a confusion. Do I need to do a full wipe in CWM before restoring backup? Or it will wipe automatically?
