I'm unable to set ringtone for incoming SMS ( in this case , I use GO sms app and it has its own internal settings where it works, but not the Android settings )
Please Help , Urgent !
Thank you all
I have a Samsung Galaxy S2 i9100, ROM Resurrection Remix® 4.4.2 v5.0.8
That happened to me on SlimKat, and the only way to fix it was full format ( phone and sdcard ), factory reset. Just reinstalling the rom was not helping.
What I think happens is that media scanner get's stuck on some corrupted file and just can't locate the ringtones.
Given all the kitkat related SdCard issues I went back to using 4.3 JB. I'm not saying you should do the same, but if you have a sdcard in the phone and you don't want it crashing every 2 days or so it's something worth considering.

Hello There
OK, i did it all over again.
I have formatted the memory cards, delete all cache and factory default and re-flash the ROM v5.0.8 and same as 5.0.9.
I still have that problem, cannot set notification ringtones.
I think that it is a bug in the ROMs. in v5.0.7, did not had the problem.
is there a way to send the group a system log for they could see and fix the problems?

Hey guys,
i need help our here. i am facing a rather odd problem which started yesterday. whenever i tried to open gallery, it says "
Not enough space. Delete unnecessary items such as download softwares, videos and documents."
I have factory reset the device 3 times deleted everything, flashed using ODIN but no avail. Any body has any solution for this?
I am using:
Stock ROM XXMEB5
Stock Kernel
Stock Recovery
EDIT: Finally Solved the Problem. The phone was not resetting properly, so for users facing this problem there are 2 possible solutions:
1. Flash stock rom, goto stock recovery and from there wipe data if CWM does not do it properly (In my case CWM did not do it properly)
2. The other solution, the info i figured out was that it had to do something with a folder in Android/Data directory. Try to delete folders one by one to see if this fixes the error

I recently updated OTA to 4.1.2 and have suddenly got this same problem today, im not technically that great so all i did was save the files i wanted to keep and did a factory reset but nothing has changed. I can open my pictures in Smart Gallery Lock Free but im also having the problem that nothing deteles properly, everything i delete re-appears when i re enter Smart Gallery
I have tried removing the files directly from "My Files" but it will only work on the extSdCard not sdcard0 its says deleted but doesnt go anywhere.
I have looked at your point 2. but i dont know what i can delete without making things worse
Hope somebody can help

well, this worked for me. how can i use instagram now?
whenever i reinstall instagram the issue with the gallery comes back.
My device is SGS2 INTERNATIONAL and rooted, and also uninstalled few preinstalled apps for personal needs and more RAM. Few days ago, i did CLEAR DATA and FORCE STOP of few downloaded apps and preinstalled apps as device memory was getting low and device was slowing down. But after that, i am not able to open Gallery and also Camera force close after few seconds (using ZOOM CAMERA as i uninstalled the preloaded camera app). Also having "android.process.media" stoping problem. Screenshot are not saved becuse gallery is not accessable and message display as "USB Storage is in use" (and also i am not using any microSD cards).
So need serious help as my Call Ringtone does not ring and no vibration as well, but message tones are working. I cant access Device Ringtone setting, i tried market Ringtone app but even tht app dont work. Also tried market Gallery app but useless.
Tried cache clearence and reboot as well for Gallery, Camera and Setting.
So need serious help as i am missing important calls and having problems with the device. Thnx

Download and flash the official firmware using Odin.
Also don't forget to backup the data before flashing.

thnx.bt flashing new firmware is the most last option for me.
give me some other solution except flashing. and also wht abt factory setting restore.
Doing a clean install (with a wipe) of stock as suggested by the previous poster is a sound idea, you'd do well to do exactly that (if you want to fix your problems, that is).

comee on guyz, no other solution except new stock flashing.
plz do tell me if u got some solution.
thnx
Do a factory reset then. You're doing that whether you flash anything or not. You either flash + factory reset or factory reset on its own (which might not work). They're the possible fixes, you not wanting to do those things doesn't change the fix.
That means i am stuck with Flashing only.
Thanks for your support but i will try to find out some solution.
One more thing, i deleted the two files application-support.apk and application-support.odx , so can these two files cuase such problem (as on xda-forum i learned that by deleting these files, "android.process.media stop" problem can be solved easily with out de-stabling the ROM)

hi. what about flashing kitkat 4.4. will it be oka.
or i should flash only official rom. wht u suggest
Stock rom first, then if you want to put a custom rom on you can do that. The first thing is to get the phone working normally again I.E no FC's.
Hey everyone my i9100 has been giving me a lot of issues over the past few months.
It all started in December when my phone shut down when on a call and would not reboot. The phone also would not charge. After using compressed air to blow out the charging port and the battery connection it still would not start. I then removed the memory card and it started. Since then every time I insert a memory card the phone will not boot.
Now fast forward to this morning and I realize that my stock android messaging app is refusing to open with the error code "process com.android.mss has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again"
I tried to clear the cache of both contacts and messaging but this option is greyed out.
I am now trying to find an app that can do a comprehensive backup of my data before I reset the phone.
Can anyone give me some advice as to how to solve these issues on the i9100? Any idea what is the most ideal application to do a complete backup to a PC? Of note is the fact that I have a lot of data in my text messages and in the app note everything. Everything else I can take care of my simply copying and pasting the files to my computer.
I also cannot seem to find where recordings done with the app Voice Recorder found on the site tokasiki are stored on the phone.
The phone is rooted and running stock android 2.3.4 baseband i9100UHKG4
Thanks in advance for your assistance.

Backup using Kies.. If u can run apps ur phone, backup everything using the app "super backup" and copy its folder alone into the pc.. It wil hav al the files..
Factory Reset ur phone later.
Upgrade the phone to Official to 4.1.2 JB using odin or upgrade any other Custom ROM and hopefully it wil work.. A friend o mine experienced a similar prob wit the memstick and the update helped. Maybe the ROM in it is corrupted somehow. Hope this helps u! Good luck
Hi dudders007 thanks for your reply I successfully updated to JB using Keis but the messaging app still wont open. This time the message is "Unfortunately messaging has stopped"
What could be the issue?
Probably you updated you phone without wiping. Try to downl from gp app sms backup and try to backup all sms to your gmail account with this app. And after that do a full wipe or factory reset but without wiping yours int memory.

Nearly every time I restart or reboot the phone, including from recovery, I lose the settings I have for ringtone, default notifications, and for tones for various messaging apps and I have to reset them. This is a big annoyance . I am using a custom KK ROM, in this case NeatROM, What is weird is that when I first migrated to CyanFox at the beginning of the year, it didn't happen. Then, one day it started and continued with the other KK ROMs I used - which are NeatROM and Mokee (though it happens less on Mokee). At first, I thought it was the media scanner, so (thank you, Sale) I disabled it in NeatROM and tested that. Nope. Not the cause of the problem. I also thought it might be because the notifications and ringtones I use are stored on my external SD card (formatted for exFAT), but when I moved them all to the internal SD, the problem remained. Any ideas how to resolve this? Thanks in advance.
A little update. I thought I could fix the problem by moving my preferred sounds to /system/media/audio. For good measure, i converted them from mp3 to ogg format. But moving them didn't do anything. The problem persists.
Try working with default ringtones . When you say you loose ringtones do you mean it turns to default or none ? I had a problem and I used to disable media scanner via an app . When I reboot my ringtones and alarms would turn to none ( it said none or smthing close to that in the settings ) . Else it might be a bug in the rom . Factory reset and changing the rom is always a sure option .
The ROM has defaults for the ringtone and notification tone. When I lose my "customized" settings in reboots, they are replaced by the defaults. This happens on all 3 KK ROMs I've used, but not on stock or rooted JB. I've tried factory resets, dirty installs clean installs, fresh installs from stock, reformats. Nothing fixes it. I am beginning to think the phone itself is deteriorating.
I discovered that the sounds settings are preserved if i do a soft or hard reboot from within xposed installer. That's pretty weird but maybe points to a solution to the problem?
HI there,
Since a week or two my S2 showed some strange, yet very specific bugs.
The bugs that I know of are the following:
-the 9gag app will open and I will be able to navigate through menu's but it will not show pictures
-My news app (nu.nl) will crash about 10 seconds after opening.
-I cannot enter my gallery, it will give the message that there isnt enough space and that I should remove stuff.
-I cannot send or download pictures/videos on whatsapp
As far as I know the rest works fine.
I tried the following to resolve the issues as followed:
-clear and reinstall the apps.
-clear dalvik and cach and reinstall apps after deleting them
-clear all cache and do factory reset
-clear USB storage and SD storage and do factory reset.
-change between touch wiz and Nova
All to no avail. When I reboot my phone both the 9gag app and the news app and the gallery will work. I can use them and they will respond fast and correctly. After a few minutes all apps will stop working in the way described above.
I have no clue on how to further explore this bugs.
Is this a hardware problem maybe?
If something is corrupt, how can I try to fix it??
PS: the news app (nu.nl) works on all my friends phones. 9gag also works on other S2's
If anyone has any idea what else I can try, plz advice.
thx

vers. 4.1.2
kernel: 3.0.31-889555
Best idea is to switch to custom roms. You can have latest 4.4.4 Kitkat, so why are even trying? If you need thorough help, just let me know
This is a kernel problem. As Ahmed described, get yourself rooted and switch to custom roms. Otherwise if you want to stay stock, root your S2 only as it changes Kernel during rooting. Then tell us. I don't think it is a hardware issue. It is the bad behaviour of your kernel.
I had the exact same issue with my galaxy s2, even after installing new rom and changing the kernel the problem was still there.
After some reflexion i realised i let google play reinstall all my application before the bug reappeared. so i have made some test and came to the conclusion that the 9gag app was the problem, after uninstall it and restart the phone everything run fine for me.
So if you still have this problem try to uninstall the 9gag application.
Sorry for my bad english i hope it's still understandable
