Hello,
Hopefully someone can help
S3 was locked to three UK network.
Odin flashed generic newer UK firmware.
Decided to hard reset via buttons.
(noticed a message about multi cnc being applied)
Once it had gone in to the set up in ICS it keeps saying
" Messaging stopped and had to close " or something along those lines.
Tried to reset again and it wont clear.
Anyone know how to fix?
Should I odin flash the firmware again or do I have to go back to original three firmware file, then reflash the new one?
Also note my handset is now network unlocked using code supplied by provider.
Look forward to any assistance and advice, thanks
I had this problem when flashing a custom rom. The trick is to flash without wiping data, albeit this issues has been cleared up in newer versions.
Not sure what to advise if you're just after the firmware... download a custom rom and make a backup of the sms feature.
Hangon I may have the sms fix still on my phone from when I had this issue I'll upload if I can find it. Make a nandroid first though as I can't be sure it'll be transferable as I used it on the XXALE8 firmware (the only one at the time)
Edit: I no longer have it, can't find it anyway. You'll have to ask indie from omega and see if he still has the file. The one you're looking for is called "sec_csc.zip" I'm sure he'd remember if you tell him its for the sms fix.
Sorry I couldn't be of more help

similiar problem
Hi guys, I have a problem which is similar but not after a custom rom install. My messaging app just closes when I go to add a contact button to the right. Any ideas. thanks.

After I rooted my phone, I found out that the camera, video player and YouTube would not work. The video would not play, but the audio would be heard. Finding on a thread that its the ROM, I unrooted my phone.
This is where the problem starts. Heaps of background apps would keep coming up saying its not responding. These background apps are android.process.acore (which I stopped by clearing user data on the contacts and contacts manager apps); LogsProvider (which I may have solved by clearing the app out of its user data); Messaging (haven't solved yet) and most importantly, Software Update.
This may have been caused because I followed a guide on the galaxy s2 root website (sorry I can't link outside links yet), which unrooted my phone, but put me back to 4.0.3, when my phone was 4.0.4
Now I can't update my phone at all, with either Kies or the system app. May someone please help me? I really want to stay away from a factory reset, and sorry for the long details.
EDIT: Software Update just checked for updates randomly out of nowhere, but now it doesn't find an update for 4.0.4. It's really strange. And Messaging is crashing constantly.
Do a factory reset
BTW did u flash 4.0.4? If yes then flash another kernel via Odin
When I updated my phone to 4.0.4
I had alot of bugs and everything fc

I am kinda a newbie to rooting, but I think I did flash it, but I kept finding unofficial leaked kernels of 4.0.4 on the net, which all looked suspicious.
And also if your advice is to factory reset, can you please give a quick guide on how to backup everything easily on a non-rooted phone, and also how to factory reset?
EDIT: I factory-reset my phone, with everything now back normal except for one thing. Before, I was able to update to 4.0.4 directly after updating to 4.0.3, but after this problem was solved, it bought me back to 4.0.3, and now won't find 4.0.4.
It's really annoying, as I liked 4.0.4's new features, especially the Wi-Fi connection bug fix and the battery level option. But now that it can't detect it, it's made it very sucky. I can't connect to Kies because the program won't recognise my S2 (even though it has Kies 2.0 compatibility)
im helping my wife. and i got the problem described below.
When making or receiving phone calls from my
s3 some strange noise starts happening and
won’t stop, resulting in me or the person I am
talking to having to hang up an make the call
again. I have tried new modem. resetting back to stock. flashed new build. reinstalling the
operating system from the built in function and am still experiencing the problem.
If you've already factory reset and flashed a fresh stock 4.1.2 rom for your country then it can only be a hardware fault.
Maybe worth trying a mega wipe script first?

already done that. viber and skype works perfect. and also the built in internet call service.
so i think it must be something else like operator(3 sweden) or something as i didnt have this issue a year ago. it started with the lastest update.
Hello guys,
From the title, you might wonder what it has to do with the Z2 Tablet but I know for a fact it's the tablet and not the apps.
A few months back, I tried custom Roms; it all went fine until I tried CyanogenMod. The Rom itself was quite good but it messed up with the Recovery Partition, forcing the installation of the crappy Cyanogen Recovery (although the option to install it with updates was deactivated in the settings; I still don't understand how it got there). I had a hard time installing permanently another Recovery, it always got back to Cyanogen Recovery after a reboot.
A few issues also started to appear on non-Cyanogen ROMS : Adway wouldn't work. Titanium Backup sometimes couldn't find the backups. Youtube playback wouldn't work with the latest version. Gifs would never load on Relay for Reddit. It took me a while to realize that it was related to the ROM, until I actually tried Cyanogen again...where everything worked, sometimes using the same Titanium Backup for the apps !
I got fed up about this, so I decided to revert to full stock (latest 5.1) using the proper FTF.
And you know what ? Youtube Playback is not working, Gifs won't load in Relay. Can't speak for TiBu and Adaway as I didn't root but I'm sure they wouldn't work either. I'm also sure that other apps that I don't use have issues.
Do you have any idea what could be the source of these troubles ? Because if flashing a stock FTF still didn't fixed them, I think Cyanogen damaged my tablet more deeply than I thought...
Thanks !
Did you wipe data?
Not wiping data when going from cyanogen to stock causes problems very similar to yours. (only wiping cache isn't enough)
Sent from my SGP521 using XDA Premium HD app
I always wipe the datas when changing roms. And I did wipe the datas when I flashed the FTF as well...
OGYoutube won't work as well. If only I could identify the issue...
Ok, here's the solution : I forgot to relock my bootloader...
so.. that's so strange. how relocking the bootloader fixes the youtube problem? I've got the same problem with youtube, BUT only with original sony 5.0.. 5.1 firmware. with 4.4.2 or cyanogenmod doesn't happen.
Any ideas? Other apps I installed to try (eg Signal) fail too. Stock ROM.
This is my fist post, have visited many times. Here we go.
As a LG V20 owner, I recommended the V30+ to two people at work. In a matter of 24 hours, both units stopped sending and receiving emails. I have taken the sims out and tested these in other phones, not a sim issue. I then moved my sim (Telstra Aus) into the V30 and only in the Messaging app, it came up with the message No SIM. This I thought might be a sim slot issue, moved it into the other slot closest to the outside. This worked for about an hour. Then the same issue occurred again. It has to be software, an update or a network change that has caused this. I did a network setting reset, have cleared cache for messaging app. SAFE MODE etc. Very strange.

Yes I used Messenger app for SMS and this failed. It sounds network setting related but still testing.
I had the same problem on my V30, suddenly SMS has stopped working. (I'm using Textra app)
I checked the sim card on the other phone and it was ok.
I found on the internet that other V30 are also affected.
The solution was to install the Message app from Google and run it.
Now SMS is working on Textra and also on the stock app.
Whoa, didn't see this before I posted in another thread. Same problem here, but I already had Messages installed! Wonder if it's just this phone for some reason?? My partner is also on VZ (S7) and can send SMS
edit: apparently it's something Google broke. Temp fix is to disable Carrier Services!
I just recently started having text messages not sending. I am on Verizon LG V30 using the vs996 30c debloated rom. Everything has worked fine until last week when I installed the latest Resurrection Remix rom. Since these roms’ tethering and WiFi do not work, I tried installing the us998 modem zip. I don’t know if that is the problem or not, but, I could not get it to work. I have since reinstalled my 99630c debloated rom and have now lost the ability to send text messages, although I can receive texts just fine. I have done clean installs and dirty installs of the rom. I, just yesterday, did a restore of a previous 99630c backup, changed messaging apps, etc. I even reinstalled Verizon’s messaging app.The messaging problem still persists.
i just got off the phone with a very nice Verizon tech, who spent about 40 minutes trying to help me. No success. She said everything appears to be working fine on their end. She ran out of things to try. She thinks my rooting the phone might possibly have something to do with it, which I agree with.
Does anyone have a working link to John Fawkes vs99630c zip? The one one his zip thread does not download for me. I thought I would try starting again with that zip. Maybe I need to try a different modem download?
Any suggestions much appreciated. Thx

See my solution directly above your question. It's not "rooting" that caused it, it's "Google" that caused it. Uninstalling or freezing Carrier Services will fix it. Did for me.
Check the litany of * reviews from today alone:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.ims&showAllReviews=true
Also, both the standard and debloat ROMs for VS99630c from their respective threads and androidilehost are downloading fine for me.
Thx, but did not work for me. I went into TiBu and found carrier services sitting in the non installed portion of the apps. So, I installed it (first with app, then with data) and tried both messaging apps with it installed. That did not work, so I went back into TiBu again and froze it. It still does not work.
I have tried downloading the standard zip from Fawkes zip thread 8 or 10 times or so. It gets to about 8 or 9% , then gives the message unsuccessful.
I will keep trying. Thx for your suggestions.
As an edit. My phone has also started giving me problems with my fingerprint recognition and my phone dialed has suddenly changed looks forcing me to constantly press and swipe an unlock button to keep the dial pad open if I hesitate too long in punching in numbers or trying to change to speakerphone from there.
I don’t know if it is something I have done/installed (wrong modem perhaps?).
And having the new XDA transition at the same time certainly didn’t help .

I don't know what to tell you about the downloads, confirmed they work.
You don't need to freeze CS, you can literally just uninstall it from the Play store. It's just an enhancement for the Google MEssages app they broke. if you don't use Messages, you surely don't need it. I don't know what you meant about CS showing up in the "non installed portion of the apps". It's either installed and frozen or thawed, or it's not. Maybe you had a backup there for reasons? Regardless, you certainly need to reboot after changing CS, not sure if you did that.
You have alot of other issues coming from RR, then flashing a modem, then trying to dirty flash VS996. Since you have TB already, you should definitely backup your apps, then Maybe clean flash VS99630c once you've followed the WTF thread. You should probably wipe your system after the other ROMs and just start over.
That certainly was a quick answer. In TiBu, under “backup/restore”, I have all the apps that are currently on my phone—a very long list. This list can be frozen, etc., and is bolded and colored fonts. Scrolling down that list, it ends and a list starts that is not bolded and has lines thru it. I guess these are apps, etc. that I have, at one time, had on the phone and can be re installed via TiBu.
I was trying to “start over” by downloading the vs99630c rom and try it. Where were you thinking I need to start over at? I wish to work only on “zips” via twrp, as I don't have much luck/knowledge with kdz and computers.
Thx, again.
Again, I'm the furthest thing from the expert here, but he's on travel! Check the WTF thread, because I'm not sure what happens when you wipe with the flashes you've made. But you'd probably start from 6.7. MORE TWRP ACTIONS here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...ar-instructions.3790500/page-10#post-76584629
I would reboot to TWRP and do a complete system backup in case this goes tits up you can restore that from TWRP. Then I would boot to OS and back up everything in TB, then delete all uninstalled backups through the batch actions. Then reboot to TWRP again, wipe, install the VS99630c ROM, install MAgisk, reboot. Make sure your install works then restore your apps through TB.
Ok, thx. I wish to install the vs99630c rom zip now (not the debloated) and am unable to download it from JohnFawkes LG V30 vs 996-30c thread from here on xda. I have tried via my phone about a dozen times now and it stops now generally after the 10 to 20% zip has downloaded. I even tried it a couple of times downloading onto a laptop. Can you possibly point me to a different link that I can try? I need to be on Verizon’s vs 996 and not on the 998 rom, I think? Sorry for the big bother.
Well, I did finally find a download mirror on here from chazzmatts thread using his mirror. It is downloaded now. I will try this installation before going thru the wtf steps you referred me to. If this doesn’t work, then i will try it.
thx, again for your help.
As an update, I did a clean wipe and installed this zip. So far, it seems to have settled things down for. I was able to text (2) and make a phone call. Both worked. I did agree to everything they asked (I normally refuse things such as location, etc.). I’m happy for now. Later, I may try to reinstall the debloated zip.
Ideveraux, thx for all your help on here. I really appreciate it.
Make sure you backup TWRP and TB. Just saying!
And to the OP, I’m sorry I hijacked your thread. I hope you got yours solved, too.
I had this problem after owning the phone for several days.
I'm not sure why, but when i installed Google's "Messages" app, the problem was fixed.
I didn't have to run the messages app, just install it. The stock app suddenly started working again.
I then uninstalled google messages (without ever running it), and the next day I had the same problem.
Once again; I installed google messages, and the problem solved itself without ever running google messages.
This time; I haven't uninstalled google messages.
I'm guessing that something about SMS settings got messed up (i checked them when the problem first happened and couldn't find a problem), and installing a new message app restored the settings to normal.
TLDR: if SMS stops working, Install Google Messages. Problem solved.

I tried that initially and that's not the accepted fix at all. Read above.
