Just upgraded to stock JB last night. everything seems ok , except for following minor issue.
1. Some of my whatsapp contacts do not show profile photos, im sure they have a profile photos before when im on ICS. After the upgrade, Some of my contacts showed No Profile Photos.
2. In Phone Contacts, if that person has a Whatsapp, it will show the small little whatsapp icon on the right side of their name right. After upgrade to JB, cant see all those icon.. FOr these problem 1 and 2, I tried sync whatsapp again, but no result also.
3. I played FIfa2012 on ICS...super smooth. After JBed, it lags~ very obvious lag.
My update process is:
1)Backup TiBa and Nandroid
2)Wipe data
3)Upgrade using Odin PC
4)Install TiBa and restore missing apps and data
5)Restore system data
6)Restart phone.
Anyone encounter this, or know any solution?? Thanks bros...

I would like to know if anyone of you have encountered the same problem like me.
Im using ICEnFire 3.0 on my Milestone. Previously, I am using the 2.9 version and everything is alright. However, when i upgraded to 3.0, Im having problems after flashing the gapps. During the restore and backup, it sort of stayed in the loading mode for an infinite amount of time.. I decided to skip that process.
Now, when i want to share photos to Facebook for Android or Friend Caster, it does not move beyond 0%. I tried using both data and wifi network. I cannot upload on Picasa as well.
I managed to upload only one picture to picasa last night. DO note that I am able to send pictures via whatsapp.
Anybody can define the issue with my phone. Thanks...
hi all I am posting this as an "official" question in this section because it's a known issue and it's not been resolved. this issue was briefly (and by that I mean "very few replies") discussed in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1055407
I am wondering if anyone has come up with a solution or some more hints.
to sum things up:
- in a threaded sms conversation, upon sending AND receiving a message the small contact pictures (both yours and your interlocutors') flash one time (like if they were reloading: you can briefly see the grey android default "no picture" icon meanwhile). this didnt happen on elder builds, and when it happens the phone lags.
- it can happen from time to time that after this strange reloading the pictures won't load anymore and immediately after this, the app will loose sync with contact names too: you'll end with phone numbers anymore like if you had an empty phonebook.
I have found the culprit to be not the messaging app but the contacts app. when this happen, i "just" need to go back to home and tap the contacts app. sometimes it just displays a black screen, sometimes i get a FC message about com.android.process.acore. after pressing the FC button the app will restart and both contacts and messaging will return working normally (although still with the weird reloading thingy).
as far as things go it seems that
- hard resetting / wiping data does not help
- removing and re-adding the google account sync does not help
- it happens on 354 too
- not all users (very few, it seems) are affected by this
- there is no weird backup & restore voodoo procedure implied in the affected streaks
the small amount of users affected by this issue leads me to think we are, in some way, doing something wrong. any help would be greatly appreciated really. thanks in advance folks.

I've the same prob. i was thinking it maybe from my rom (simple streak 1.2) but looks like its not.
yeah it seems to be an issue related to android 2.2.2 (I didn't have this problem on stock 318 rom). I have done some more tries yesterday but I didn't come up with a solution. I even tried to desync google account, remove all contacts etc, and create a new test contact with random picture, well as soon as I insert the picture the problem reappears.
I forgot to mention it in the op but go sms pro seems unaffected.
Contacts app in StreakDroid 1.9.1 does this as well.
I'm going to try and roll back contacts.apk, contactsprovider.apk and mms.apk from stock 318. I have checked the filesizes and they actually are slightly different.
well tbh I am 99.9% confident I will end up having to reflash my phone but oh well..
i'll report back!
EDIT: so here's the news. replacing apps didnt work. ROM 360 is still affected by the issue.
back to the drawing board...
Hi all
Sorry if this has been posted before or if I'm in the wrong section. I've tried to learn as much as possible, but as a complete noob to Android, I'm finding it a tad unmanageable.
What happened:
So first I rooted my device with Odin and CWM6.4. I used CWM to make a backup of my device on the internal SD, as I have no external. I then installed Mobile Odin Pro and flashed first CM9, then the LFB modem, then CM10 and then GAPPS. I then reset my device, or whatever the option was called to delete everything, which the guide said was required.
I'm now running the CM10 released yesterday (06082012) and everything seems to be running well. However here are some questions, that I hope you can help me with:
1) I liked the touchwiz widget for the weather and clock. Can I get this back somehow?
2) I liked the swype keyboard and tried installing swiftkey3, but this does not have swype apparently. Can I somehow get swype again?
3) When I installed CM10, I had to delete everything, which meant I lost all my apps and their files. Is this standard when flashing? I would like to fiddle around and try some different roms/kernels, but it would get tiresome if I had to reinstall everything from scratch every time.
4) Since I got CM10 instead of stock, the screen seem to be generally much brighter and drains a lot more power from the battery. I've tried setting it on automatic, but it doesn't seem to adjust the screen brightness even if I try covering up the sensor with my finger. Does anyone know why? Is it because I'm using software which is under development or is there an easy fix?
5) I've tried getting it to transfer my contacts from facebook to my contacts on the phone, but it just doesn't seem to happen since CM10. Is there something I can try to get it working? Also before I had the option in the facebook app under app settings and could check a box here to make it sync. Now the sync option seems to be under Android homescreen --> Settings --> Accounts --> Facebook --> check to synchronize. It says it synched like 30 minutes ago, but I can't see the contacts.
Thanks a lot for any help you can provide!
Regards Casper

Lets answer your questions one by one..
1. You cannot get tw Widgets on cm10..as it uses the framework which is different from CM10..try other widgets from the market..
2.you can download swipe by going to beta.swype.com and downloading it manually..or else install slideit pro..its also provides the same functionalitty..
3. You don't need to install everything when you reflash..use titanium backup root from play store to backup Apps+data ..and restore the apparel when you flash again..
4.might be a rom issue..remember it is still in development..
5.the settings I jb are in that way..try going to Facebook app..open the contact list..scroll up and down till al the contact pictures load..check you phone contacts again..hope it work..used to work earlier in gingerbread..
Don't mind the spelling mistakes..I am typing on a phone in a moving bus

Hi Guys,
Wondering if anyone has experienced the following issues. Following an OTA update to JB, I have noticed 2 serious issues which I can't seem to shake. Firstly, the back camera is not working. When loading the stock camera app, the output of the camera just shows weird static/green lines.. a bit like what it used to look like when try to play an NTSC video tape on a PAL system (yes I'm that old ).
Secondly, and more importantly as I use this for business, is that Gmail's "Show quoted text" function does nothing. So when I receive a forwarded email, I tap the "Show quoted text" button and nothing happens, making it impossible to read the forward.
Steps to resolve this issue that I have taken:
1) Force closed both Gmail and Camera Apps, then cleared data. No change.
2) Factory reset from system menu - no change, and now I have to set up my Prime again!
I don't want to flash anything for now, as this is a work device I am not allowed to install custom binaries (i know I could probably cover my tracks but really don't wanna risk much with such an expensive device).
If anyone has any tips or ideas I would very much appreciate the help.
Cheers all
Hey there,
I have had this bug since I first officially updated MIUI when I got this phone (ie. first day). Right now I am running MIUI 9 Global Stable 9.0.3.0 (also updated through OTA) which I believed would fix these issues which started occurring since MIUI 8 .
I have tried factory reset (yesterday), without any success (Happened today morning).
It's not exactly reproducible manually, however it happens every morning (which is even more weird) or at least once every day.
Here's what happens:
1: Chrome stops loading web pages. The new tab page is changed to a complete white blank. If you wait for long enough, chrome crashes.
2: Screenshots stop working. Three finger swipe doesn't work, and from the notification shade, the output pic is a black screen. Hence I cannot provide screenshots.
3: Notification tone and Ringtone selection do not play (i.e preview) sounds, rather display a message "Could not connect to the internet".
4: YouTube loads data fine until video playback, at which it crashes after some time.
5: Messaging apps (such as whatsapp, hike) cannot send message anymore, however in some cases can receive messages.
5: Other apps such as facebook, instagram etc also crash and don't load content and crash.
The only fix is to reboot the device. Which is fine, however, it gets rather annoying that it happens every single day.
If anyone has any advice for a fix, I'd be very thankful.
were you able to find some sort of solution to all these problems?
i am having the exact same issue(s) and have looked it up all over the net but still couldnt find anything relevant.
Download official rom from en.miui.com
Place the zip in internal or sd
Open updater and update by zip.
Tht should fix it
If even tht didn't do it the you'll have to unlock bootloader and install a custom rom
P. S even oero custom roms are available
updated through miui updater but the issues still remained.
one thing i noticed is that if u keep on using the phone when app starts to crash without rebooting then after a while systemui has stopped comes up.
more importantly most of these issues appeared while using hike.
i uninstalled hike to see if a third party app could be interefering with the background processes and voila!
no hangups/app crashes/network problems for 2 days straight.
thanks anyways.
Yep, uninstalling hike fixed the problem for me.
Pretty weird how hike can crash miui haha
The same problem
Hello, guys! I have the same problem and it's annoying. What is hike? Where I can find it? Did you mean "hike: payments" from Play market?

hike is a messenger similar to Whatsapp. If you don't have it installed, your problem is different from ours, which was fixed by uninstalling hike.
