Blowed if I know, check back on the last apps you downloaded (if you did) maybe one of them is responsible.

Just because it came from play store doesn't guarantee it is safe. Be very careful before installing those apps again.

Please HELP - Data network not working

All of a sudden, my network data has stop working.
Of course, i've switched it on, and also turned the phone on and off and taken the battery in and out to make sure. I've also tried another SIM. Strangely, this other SIM worked yesterday, and then when i put my SIM back in my data network came back again. So i was happy, until this morning when it has stopped working again!
I am really getting frustrated about this because this is not the first problem i am facing.
Please help. What can i do?
Btw, my WiFi works perfectly fine.

Yes i have rooted.
Baseband: I9100XXKDJ
Kernal version: I9100XWKDD.
I did the KE2 one basically.
Okay i will reset factory settings, but how do i save my apps? I don't have any pics or sms or anything like that, just the apps i care about. I have Titanium Backup Pro, but wouldn't Titanium delete itself if i did a reset? :s
Which firmware shall i flash? And do i flash the stock one or the unsecure one?

You can use either titanium backup or appbrain.
Pick any stock firmware and give it a go. Then reinstall titanium backup and u can reinstall your apps. But b4 u do make sure your problem is fixed

Oh man, THANK YOU!!! It's sorted!!! Got data network back, apps back as well!!
As i was reinstalling one by one from TB, i noticed that the problem reoccurred when i reinstalled Root Explorer with the data included, so i reinstalled it without the data but just the app and all is fine again.
Once again, thank you!

[Q] CWM restore problem...

Hey
I was on GingerReal1.4, and wanted to try out overclocking on CM7. Made a backup on CWM and then installed CM7, tried, happy and decided to go back.
Now when I try to restore the backup, most of my apps arent being detected and the launcher is back to touchwiz and I can't seem to find superuser also. I assumed this maybe because sd-ext is not being detected. So I tried installing a2sd-gui from my titanium backup, that seems to work and isn't showing me any problem. I also tried reinstalling the kernel, didn't work.
And Ive tried restoring about 5 times till now, same result.
Am I doing something wrong?? Any help would be rly rly awesome...
Thanks

Did you format all partitions in CWM before restoring ?

I think flashing the darktremor script may work.

You mean the script given here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1158197 ?
Tried that, didn't work.
Even apps that were preinstalled on the ROM like ext4manager and Gmail are missing!!!
Thanks a lot guys
Then logically the problem is in that backup.
yea, that's what I'm thinking, though I did not get any errors while doing the backup.
I read about someone else having a similar issue a long tym back in the galaxy s forum, and i dont see any suggestions or solutions there.
Anyway, given up for now, will take care of it some other tym...
Backing up all i got and switching to CM now.
Do let me know if something pop's up and you remember this issue of mine.
Thanks again
No.. The backup is not the problem. I have read somewhere that the problem lies with the bootloader.
When you upgrade to CM 7, it uses the 2.3.7 bootloader. And now you are trying to restore a backup associated with a 2.3.4 bootloader. The restore does not contain the bootloader. Thus you may experience a bootloop.
The only get around is to flash via odin.
Hit thanks if i helped.

The restore does restore boot .
It erases boot before restore and will restore .

What do you mean when you say you cant root anymore because you have CWM? Rooting and CWM are on separate tracks in this case, CWM does not stop you from rooting your phone. Are you saying you dont want to root?
Also, rooting is very simple, just change your kernel to cf-root(to be flashed via CWM, check http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1158197 ) and you get added advantages like ext4, BLN, a2sd support etc.
PS: Read all you can before doing anything

"Process android.process.media has stopped" after JB update

Hey guys, I can't even use my phone after the official update of the Jelly Bean (via Kies). After booting, the phone freeze almost completely and pop-up this message. Any fix without reseting ? I tried cleaning the cache but the problem isn't fixed
If anybody had this issue, can give me an idea about how to fix it ? Thanks
Try clearing its data in app manager
Nop, can't find it. I tried cleaning most of data but nothing works :/ Damn...is Samsung able to do something without bugs ?
that's why no one uses kies
Factory reset or download an Odin version and flash with Odin

Yeah, I like to root, but not to change the rom Now I need to root again. At least the issues has been solved.
Fixing permissions usually solves that problem barring that a full wipe and start again.

As I got the official update, I lost the root, I tried to clear the cache and as I've seen that is not working and the phone was freezing each 5 seconds I got a bit scared to start rooting it. I wiped it, installed my apps and now everything is ok. However, it's weird that I didn't got the apps automatically installed like it's happened last time when Amazon replaced my S3 for some screen issues (some scratches inside the screen). I just added my google account and everything started installing automatically. Not this time...
just downloaded jelly bean tonight and having this issue. has anyone come up with a solution that does not involve a full hardware restart???
Had same problem after I updated 3 months ago. I think was an incompatibility with an app or something has not updated completely. Fixed it with factory reset.
You can backup apps with Samsung Kies I think if you don't want to lose progress in games, the other stuff is automatically synced

I'm afraid it'll probably have to be a full reset just make sure you've backed up.

Kies Restore doest appear to work !!

I don't know what happend, but it will be a bad day for you. I think your data was lost.
For a "full" backup, the best way is making NANDROID backup. For that, you must root your phone and install a custom recovery (such as CWM).
Just reset your phone and reinstall your apps from the market. Personal data may be lost

Try the Kies forum .

Yeah if you go into the play store after signing into your Google account then open my apps and swipe left you can see all of the apps you have previously downloaded.... you can then choose the apps you want to download although you will lose the data stored in the apps. I know if you have a lot this can be a pain but It is easier than other fixes!!! Plus you can make a new start.
Hope this helps

Go back to stock, see if it still happens while you are there. If so, return it and ask for a new one. If it doesn't, flash CM again and read the CM thread; you just might find a fix for that issue.

What ROM do you use?
Settings->about phone->build number should give you the ROM name and the firmware it's based on.

Just click restore. You don't have to delete anything first because it will be deleted/replaced by the restored rom
