HELP!
I rooted my Galaxy S3, which worked flawlessly! Unfortunately, I used Titanium Backup to restore data and now I have an issue. It says, "Unfortunately, messaging has stopped." and I can't get to my SMS!
I use GoSMS Pro and I can SEE them, I just can't read/respond. If I click on one of the contacts, it opens a blank window. In Messaging, it just crashes non-stop.
Do you think I just need to reinstall the MMS app?
Thanks!!!!
Uninstall the titanium backup of the app and reinstall it WITHOUT data or from the market.
Yes, you won't have your saved messages, but you will have a working app.

If you just restored data and not app using Titanium Backup, have you tried going to Application Manager under Settings and find the Messaging app click on "clear data" and "force stop" to restart the app? Maybe the fixes your problem.
Af, if "Samsung galaxy s3 T-Mobile" had a development section I would be all over it. I here techniques for the 9300 don't work on T999

It does have a development section. You need at least 10 posts to access it.....

Fixed it!
Hey everyone!
Thanks for the replies... I ended up using the stock ROM posted recently to reset it. Then, using Titanium Backup to restore ONLY the important stuff--not the [SMS/MMS/****] database that kept crashing things. I went back to my Galaxy S2 and used SMS Backup and Restore instead to push/pull in my 20,000 text messages to the new phone. I lost the MMS, but if they were funny/important, I saved them as pics anyway :-D
I assumed going from ICS on my T989 to ICS on my T999, it would be the same, but no. However, now, I have a great phone with my pertinent data and it's working GREAT!
Also in the development section is how to root it. I used the post from the Sprint Galaxy S3.
Thanks again!

I did that, btw. That worked for a LogProvider issue I was having, but would NOT work for any type of SMS issue. Unfortunately, the phone is so new to the US market, there isn't much support. I decided instead to just flash it again and find a different way to get my SMS onto the phone.
I also had the "messaging stopped" error and the only way I could fix it was to reset to factory defaults. I tried clearing data from the messaging app and reinstalling the rooted odin image, but neither of those things fixed the problem. Be careful though, a factory reset will wipe the internal sdcard. It did not wipe my external. The factory reset also cured the problem of Windows not being able to load the MTP driver.
I suspect it had something to do with restoring some system settings with Titanium. I thought I'd only done a few safe ones, but perhaps not. This time I'll be sure and only restore my system wifi settings. If it had been due to debloating, then I would think reinstalling the full image would have fixed the problem.
could someone help me solve the problem of messaging not working
when i try to read a message in messaging, unfortunately messaging has stopped shows up and the app crashes. i have tried clearing cache and delvik cache and rebooting, backing up using cwm recovery and restoring, clearing cache and data and force stopping it, but nothing seems to be working.

Same problem here. I've also reflashed the ROM after wiping everything and nothing seems to fix this. I tried out "AirDroid" from the market last night, and since then SMS has been down. AirDroid lets you send SMS from your phone using a web interface on your desktop, so I'm assuming that's what broke it. But, from what I know, wiping/reflashing should fix things...

Hi Guys,
Recently no matter what ROM I was flashing I was getting FC and crashes. I thought either the ROMs were buggy or my HW had problem. It was very frustrating. Finally I found out:
It's the Titanium Backup which causes the problems.
Most of us have back up and restored lots and lots of times over different ROMs and this causes some of the system files to be overwritten while they are not compatible. Also note that I was trying to be very careful but still this happened.
So please do the following:
1- Delay your Ti restore stage and see if you have problem with your ROM or not, most likely not.
2- Once restoring don't restore data for most apps or file systems, only restore the app. and see if everything is ok or not.
3- For messages use something like SMS back up or sms back up +, etc.
Yea its a known issue with TI if you restore data especially for any system apps.

Yes, it's a known but forgotten issue
Hey guys,
so here's what happened. My tab hanged so I restarted it, but then it won't go pass the glowing SAMSUNG animation. It took a few hours before it managed to boot but instead of my normal UI I boot into the.. SETUP. Like the first day your device was first turned on, I skipped the setup because it seems like all my settings are still intact(My 3rd party keyboard kept crashing at the setup). Everything was still there, my apps, my gallery is as it should. But one thing is scaring the hell out of me. NOTHING WORKS. All my apps force close like all their data have been erased or something. But when I check settings it still says I have over 9GB used for apps as it should, but everything doesnt work :/ all my downloaded apps, Live wallpapers, widgets all won't work.. Anyone can help me?
My tab is not rooted..
Thanks
Your tab got corrupted somehow... It happens from time to time. Maybe one of the apps you installed caused this? I don't really know, but once it happened to me on my phone. If you had cwm I'd suggest to wipe cache, dalvik cache and to fix permissions. But since you are completely stock there is not much you can do. Try to wipe cache in recovery. Other than that try to reinstall the apps. I think it works. Just reinstall one app and see if it works. Then proceed by installing all of them. But if you come to this, then it's best to make a full wipe to be certain that everything will be cleared. If you had root and titanium backup it would be much easier to reinstall your apps. But if you prefer stock then I think what I said is the best solution. Good luck!

I would suggest to factory reset your device. Try to save as much data as possible and reset. I know that it annoying to get everything working again. But if your device is that messed up it properly needs to be done. After such a thing I couldn't trust my device any more.

So I flashed a gummy ics from to my friends fascinate. Had a bit of trouble with the restore, unfortunately losing the contacts. It still runs a bit slow and all the programs lag and force close. I've ran fix permissions countless times. Any suggestions?

Thanks man, I'll try that stuff when I get home. With doing the wipe, if I do a backup of all the apps and app data, doesnt that kind of make the data wipe redundant?

depends on your back up methods. i use google to back up contacts and tibu to back up apps. after a data wipe i just resync goole and restore app only(no app data) from tibu and your back in business.
I always bypass the Google account, to do an app restore first. Only restore the data portion of the apps that are most important. Like a checkbook app, dolphin, Tapatalk, etc. The rest be sure to just restore the app.
One that's done add your Google account and let the contacts sync, etc.

I know what it is it actually has nothing to do with root because it was happening to me before i rooted and its a derp on samsungs part....... Basically if u go to settings then accounts and sync go into your google account and uncheck "sync internet" this was the culprit for me and a few other people only thing is your bookmarks wont be synced but if u are using another browser u should be good or just manually put them in there......give thanx if i have helped!

I am also using Chrome. What did you freeze? all I show is the browser icon and Bookmarks UCLEAM or whatever next to it in Titanium Backup. Is this what you froze?
See title. This happens with the homepage but not subforum or thread pages. Also the thread suggestions thing wasn't working when I made this thread, and ads are not showing (no big deal you say--but I didn't do anything to disable them and it's just odd). Everything seems to work fine in Chrome, but I'd rather not use that because of the bloat.
I dunno if it has always been like this or I screwed something up? Been playing with Greenify and Autorun Manager...
It happened to me too. (4.1.2)
But after I re-flash my ROM, it show as per normal.

Thanks I guess! It worked... but I lost all my data (duh). What I did not expect was losing all my bookmarks and even my connection to my google account from the stock browser. And I don't see any way to add accounts to the stock browser so haven't found a way to get it back. Help? :crying:
Edit: Wait, I fooled around in phone settings - >accounts and re synced my google account and the bookmarks came back. Yay! :victory:
Still, is there a less *destructive* way to get buggered pages to load properly again?

No no no you weren't supposed to wipe your data cache. You were suppose to go to system settings ---> apps---> downloaded apps--->XDA and clear the data and force close the app only. Sorry I wasn't more clear
on that point.

Yeah, well I was having trouble with xda loading on the stock browser, so I went to system settings->apps->all apps->browser and FCed it and cleared its data. Pretty close to your instructions no?
Can't imagine the havoc it would have wreaked if I wiped data in recovery without some backup
So as I was saying, pages load wrongly from the stock browser (or heck chrome even) every now and then--is wiping browser's data the only way to go? I tried wiping cache first but no joy
