Hello,
I wanted to install that MMS mod fix and now my SMS/MMS app is ****ed up, everytime I open it, it won't start and crashes right after. I'm running stock 4.1.1 DLIH. Does anyone have the stock SMS/MMS files that could fix it ?
Here's a link to the zip I've installed : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=33367197&postcount=45
Thanks for your help.
Hi,
1. Have you uninstalled the apk mod?
2. Have you tried a full wipe?
3. In case nothing works, try to flash the stock rom again via odin
Cheers
Hey, thanks for your time.
1) How can I uninstall the APK (I'm noob in Android, I come from Windows Phone..) ?
2) If I do a wipe, will I lose everything ? And to proceed, do I have to enter CWM then "do a wipe/cache" ?
3) I'll do that if nothing can fix it.
Thanks for your help.

If you do a data wipe, you will lose everything. Let's try just the wipe cache and wipe dalvik, don't do the data wipe to preserve your apps and configs. If I doesn't work, try the data/cache/dalvik wipe. You are right, just enter on CWM to perform cache and dalvik wipe.
3) I'll do that if nothing can fix it.

Yes, lets hope for the best, maybe it wont be necessary. Good luck! If you need help on step 3, just say it.
Just checked and the APK isn't in the list. There is no way to have a *.zip with the stock files I could install to fix my problem ?

hum... Unfortunately I don't know the answer for this. You can try a search on xda forum and google.
I would try a search, if no success, I would try step 2 (wipe cache and dalvik) and if nothing works, step 3.
Good luck!
Cheers
This mod is probably made for deodexed rom
You run a rooted stock rom which is probably odex
So:
-use root explorer (or similar app) and move secmms.odex file from /system/app to your SDcard (internal or external) as backup
-restart in CWM
-wipe cache
-wipe dalvik cache
-restart your phone
-check if you still have your issue

Happened to me once: the app disappeared from dock
Check if the app is still in the app drawer.
If it is still there, then just move it back to dock

Problem solved thanks to Mopral who managed to extract SecMMS.apk and SecMMS.odex from a stock DDLIH and send them to me.

Hi guys, I'm new to this Forum
Actually, Im having this problem…
It all about my font ..
I was using the fonts from settings > display > font … but then I thought of changing a newer font, and so I downloaded “Font Installer”
I didn’t read the instructions carefully before I download and install…It says **Backup first before you do anything**, and so, I install the font and it change my browser’s font and the folder font (like when you create a folder, it will show you how many app you have in the folder, it changed the numbers too)
I wanted to change it back to my original font but it wouldn’t let me anymore, I downloaded other fonts but it still doesn’t work..
My friend told me the original font for S2 ICS is [Roboto-regular.ttf]…
So, I try and try and try, finally, it allows me to change the font and it ask me to reboot.
Okay, I reboot my phone, then the phone starts and keep on loading at the “S Samsung Galaxy S II Logo’ and I wait and wait, it still doesn’t do anything..
Im thinking of my phone was BRICKED..Then I ask my friend straight away about it…What he told me was it is just “BootLoop” (not sure what is that)…
He ask me to do these steps..
1. Volume Up + Home Button + Power Button
2. It then directs me to CWM, It gave me 6/7 choices… (reboot system, wipe data, wipe cache and few more)
3. 1st I click reboot system (still doesn’t do anything), then 2nd I click wipe cache ( click yes and then I click reboot system again), not working also…
4. then my friend ask me to clear dvcache and clear all data, he say it will lose everything…
What should I do now ?
I've saved my contacts in my SIM..gallery, apps doesn't care anymore..
If so, do i need to reformat my phone ?
It won't help you so don't wipe

So can you go into CWM? (Volume up+home+power). Clear the cache and dalvik cache. Then go to install zip from internal SD(depends if you put in phone storage or micro SD.). Find the file from the above and install. Then reboot. Should be fine then.

I manage to get into CWM and I've done the wipe cache step...but for the dalvik cache(my friend told me that it will erase all your phone data files- reformat)..
If not, what does dalvik cache do ?

Dalvik cache is just for the apps data. It doesn't reformat. Its not much actually. Just that it might cause errors with you don't wipe it. Hmm. Put it in micro SD card then. Install from external SD and reboot.
Sent from my potato.
When your phone starts up, the Dalvik Virtual Machine ( Dalvik Cache) looks at all your apps and frameworks, and creates a tree of dependencies which is stored in the dalvik-cache. This allows applications to run in an optimised state (and explains why your phone takes longer to boot up after applying a new rom, it’s rebuilding the cache.)
SO when flashing new roms without wiping dalvik cache sometimes will result in Force Close issue due to Dalvik VM skipping the caching process for apps as it detected existing app cache.
To connect your phone to the computer, connect it and in CWM go to "mounts and storage" . The last option should be "mount usb storage". Then you can move the file written above

Fellow Users,
I wiped:
- Factory/Wipe data
- Dalvik
- Cache
- Every storage
did a fixed permission
- Switched different roms Stock and Custom
- Switched different kernels stock and custom
- Flashed with Odin and with CWM Recovery.
How can i get rid of the nasty scripts or mods that are stuck ??
Is there a way to clean everything harder and deeper than what i did ?
How about init file or something?? i dont have ADB
I think this is how. follow these.
1. Factory reset / Wipe data
2. Wipe Cache partition
3. Wipe Dalvik
4. Go to mount & storage
5. Fix Permissions
6. format /cache
7. format /system
8. format /data
9. format /preload
10. format /sdcard
Try these. But make sure you have a rom to flash on external sdcard. because formatting these will remove system and you will not start phone without flashing a rom.

To fully format the phone you could also use megawipe. It is a flashable zip for cwm which will remove anything, also your sd card. Hence better have a flashable rom on your external sd. You can find it in the dev section or search for mega wipe.

I try the method rl421403 says but it didnt help, i also flashed the mega wipe zip file and did the wipe but that also didn't work.
Maybe it is hardware related? is there a way to test this?

Maybe let us now what you want to delete exactly.
Usually the mega wipe well erase any file and leave a blank slate.

Hey guys,
I have had some issues with my current ROM. I want to change the ROM. I am looking to switch to OMEGA.
How would I do this, I currently have AROMA rom. Should I do a factory reset the just reboot into recovery mode and install that way? Or will just installing the ROM from zip work? Or if I do a factory reset do I need to root it again with Odin, or will I not need to root it?
Also for wiping the phone should I wipe my SD card? Or no?
Thank you I searched and found half answers for most of this.
You have to format /system partition and /data partition in order to get a clean ROM, otherwise you may run into some unforeseeable problems.
Don't have to wipe sdcard
Most ROM except stock are pre-rooted.

Ok just to double check what your saying.
I should do a wipe using the built in android factory reset.
Then just install the ROM using the recovery boot.
I will not have to use ODIN or any other soft ware. Just factory reset and install rom.
AW: [Q] Switching ROM and wiping
I'd factory reset in recovery, wipe cache and dalvik, format system and then flash the new ROM from your external sdcard
Please report if that way worked for you
But be sure to backup your apps with titanium backup

6.Install zip from sd card , Choose zip from sd card , Choose rom and Click yes!

Nobody can tell you which rom is better .. All roms are amazing because of the work put into them try them out one by one.. you're not going to lose anything..
Ok cool. I installed OMEGA and I like that rom. I did a factory reset and wiped the Dalvik cache and cache. Will look around a bit more but so far so good....
however same issue with the phone. But now when the call ends it says process com.android.phone has stopped. Then i hit ok and phone is ok. It doesn't automatically restart then go really slow.
No idea about this, I searched however couldn't find a answer. Lots of phones and versions of android had this issue.
Any ideas would be great guys.

why not you backup your current rom first then try to flash a new rom without wipe data. if you not facing any issue on the new rom, then it's ok.
if you facing any issue, you must flash again the new rom with wipe all data. if you not happy with both, then you restore back what you are backup before.:fingers-crossed:

Yes I did. I factory reset. wiped cache and dalvik as well as formatting in the advanced options. I currently have Omega 44.2 installed. But I had the iphone app crashing with AROMA 30.1 and 30.4
Is there away to uninstall the phone app and then re install that cleanly?
I did this and still have the phone crashing issue.

There is no white data. only buttons available are force stop and clear data. If I press clear data it says all data will be deleted permanently including all files, settings accounts, databases. I assumed the files were the actual app.
I went to settings. Applciation manager and chose Phone.
......hit clear data then, do that for phone and contacts storage, the data bases get rebuilt the only thing you will have to set up again is which contacts to display and any ringtone options etc you may have chosen

i killed the live wallpaper files a long time ago.
now i like to test the weather pro live wp.
can someone tell me, which files i need?
(i can´t simpy install the live wallpaper picker. the system always shows: "app not installed")
Use root file browser to push to system/app and set permissions
i gave all permissions to the apk in the system.
"app not installed" after the installation-prozedure
Have you got the right app for your Rom?
i took the original
secLiveWallpapersPicker.apk
4.1.2 on s3
which i saved before i killed them
And are you still on that same version of jb?

You do not install it from there, or from anywhere else. You just put it there, check permissions and reboot. Done.
thats the way i tried it
there is a *.odex datei.
do i have to copy it back too?
what about the "special" permissions?
Is your ROM odexed or de-odexed?
i never did something this way.
its the original 4.1.2 without branding.
flashed with odin.
rooted

It's odexed then, so yes you will also need the .odex from your donor rom
Sometimes it is just easier to flash a pre-rooted ROM version via recovery.
i still can´t use live wallpapers.
when i klick on my background -> background
then there is just
1) galerie
2) quick pic background
If you are on stock Rom, re-flash it with mobile Odin without wiping data

if i flash again: will my confugurations be gone with the wind?
in my recovery is no option to wipe dalvuk.
titanium says there is nothing to clear,
so how can i wipe dalvik?
Dalvik wipe is in the advanced menu of CWM based recoveries.
However, your ROM is odexed so /system/apps don't have dalvik-cache anyway, so it wont help.
Flashing a de-odexed, pre-rooted ROM, if its a same version (4.1.2 etc) should not have any negative effect on your config
