Happened to me before when I did flash the wrong status bar for the firmware version or odex/deodexed version.
You can try a dirty flash of the stock rom without wiping data or moving the SystemUI.apk into the appropriate folder, give the permissions correctly and restart the phone (not sure if this would work though).

yeah actually i thought about that..but im keeping that option for last xD...how did you solve the problem?

for what? flashing a rom? have a look in the general section's stickies, there is a guide on how to.

If you have a nandroid backup just restore.
Otherwise reflash your rom and restore data.

just move the original systemui to /system/app and set the correct permissions.
and if you should have a backup if you followed the instructions

i dont have a backup :/

One of the uncool disadvantages of rooting.
Are you using a stock ROM (or a custom ROM based on a stock ROM) or CM7?
If the latter, I can upload the appropriate files when I get home.

you can connect to kies and update to official ddkq6... it will not wipe out data and may be able to give you contacts back
I flashed my phone to again ddkq5 and my contacts apk ate back.
Thank you guys for all your efforts and suggestions.

Whether to Restore the "Android ID"

Hey Guys,
After flashing a Custom ROM, i went to restore all my apps from Titanium backup but it gave me the warning that my device's 'Android ID' has been changed and gave me the options to restore the old one/ask later/keep the current one.
Does anyone know the best way to proceed?
Yes, hit restore, it will reboot, job done

Is it necessary to restore Android ID? I always ignore it and haven't notice any problem yet.

I think it applies to root protected apps ie banking etc, so if you don't have these I don't think you will get problems

[SOLVED] How to center the lock-screen clock?

Hi, I tried this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1815052 on my S3, the size of the mod was wrong.
So could someone do this right and upload a modified and working framework-res.apk for cm9?
Post the link to the exact rom you're running and I'll gladly do so.

Good I came back to check if you did so!
Lol.
Give me ~15 minutes.
Edit:
Hopefully got it.
There was a lot more to sift through on CM10 than I'm used to.
Should work for all lockscreens (password/pin/face/slide/pattern)

Thanks
Is this for cm9 or cm10?
when i flashed it on cm9 it got stuck in bootloop.

Change the permissions to rw-r-r

I did that. I still can't get it to install. I've deleted everything except the backup for the old mms.apk and the new one still will not install. I've renamed the new apk from secmms to just mms.apk and nothing works.

What ROM are you trying to install the stock MMS? There are many ways to install an app but it has to fit the ROM too.
I was trying to install it into cm10.1 maybe I just can't install over the one they use

I think that you hit the nail on the head. The stock messaging app requires touchwiz I believe. Why not try a third party app like Handcent?
I guess I'm gonna have to try them again. I wasn't impressed the last time I use it but maybe it's changed

There is nothing in the stock app that handcent can't mimic.

Okay, I am sorry. I did this using Hellybean and it gave me a fake imei that T-Mobile accepts. I am back with cell service, but an improper imei. I can live with that. Thank you.
