Are there updates out ???? because here i didnt receive anything
It's a bit late update for uk three network branded phones. And it seems market app is missing after the update..
For now those who updated must think what to do.. tomorrow I'm going to call 3 and speak to sb responsible for these updates and get know what is actually going on.. Market is very important for me. Warranty too if You know what I mean

Ok I think I got a solution I have restored the phone to fabric defaults. Market is back. Remember after this operation all user data is lost. I forgot to backup contacts so I decided to warn You besides system notifications

Only issue I have with this is that if the market still isn't back after factory reset, I can't reinstall any apps I currently have.
I'll wait for a solution from 3 first, and then think about a custom rom
Hmm.. After the reset I got clear phone, I have formatted SD card and now I'm trying to get my apps and settings I had before. Market is on its place and android introduces itself as 2.2. Wish You luck with all the issues You have!
I had similar issue after updating. I have an unlocked desire. I had to restore the factory defaults and the market app was back. Ofcourse i had to reinstall every app and contacts.
Hey guys,
I never had issues with flashing before and was using Leedroid 3.0.2 since today.
I decided to try out the new Reflex.S ROM Vers. 2.0.1. cuz it has the new Sense interface and I'm really fascinated by it.
In short: I flashed it and the recommended radio afterwards. The system booted successfull and seemed to be running stable.
Now like everybody of you surely expected, I did a recover via Titanium Backup afterwards. As soon as the recover has been finished i was getting force closes of android.acore and other modules.
I reflashed 3 times and tried to find out what might be the reason for the occuring errors. I was able to make out at least that it had to do with the import of my old contact settings (I recovered the data of contacts exclusively).
I'm sure that other modules might force the same error, but the most important one for me is the one of my contacts, as u might guess.
Does anybody of u have an idea what I might do to get all of my contacts into the Reflex.S ROM?
And please dont tell me, i got to reflash to leedroid and write down all numbers by hand
I'd really appreciate any help!
Save your contacts to your Google Account and sync with Google. It should backup your contacts (you can check when you log onto Gmail but in the browser). That's what I have done so when I change rom, I just sync my contacts back an voila.
Thx for the first advice.
Afaik I'm not able to sync my contacts to my google account after they've been created as "contacts saved on the phone". I would have to add every single of them again and then change the save-destination.
Am I right? Or maybe wrong?
Yes, you would have to add them all in again as a Google contact. Yes it is a pain but once it's done it's done. You could try to export your contacts then import them back.
Does anybody have another idea how to get my adjustments of sense, including my contacts, from a titanium backup of leedroid 3.0.2 Rom into the Rom of Reflex.S without any errors?
Today I tred to add a contact to my phone. Each time I would tap the plus button to add the contact it would error and FC the phone application. I decided to do a factory reset real quick, opened the phone and added my friend's contact info before I had restored my Titanium backup. It worked fine.
Once I restored the backup of the phone, I went into the phone application and tried adding a contact again and it was again FCing. What I need to know is what file that has to do with my contacts I need to not reinstall? A phone isn't a phone if you can't add new contacts.
T-Mobile SGS2 running BeastMOD V1.
Just in case anyone else has this problem, it was the ICS Google+ application causing the problem. One I uninstalled it I was able to add contacts again. Sorry to waste a thread.
you can install the proper version from Android Market, that one works fine
only the ICS version causes that bug
i encountered it too myself on my old phone
Hi Everyone. I damaged my Sprint Galaxy S 3 and it was replaced under the insurance plan. 3 days before damaging the phone I backed the Rom up with Clockworkmod Rom Manager. When I receiving the replacement phone I compared the version and build that each phone had installed on them and they were the same. I proceeded to root the new phone and installed Clockworkmod Rom Manager. I then restored the rom from the damaged phone to the new phone. Everything went OK and worked fine after restoring the ROM. I fell asleep happy. The next morning I woke up to an alert that my phone had a new update from 4.1.1 to 4.1.2 so I installed the update. After the update finished I tried to access my contact list and the phone froze up. I had to remove the battery to reboot. After rebooting I tried to access the contacts again same issue. Then I forced a sync. Still the same issue after syncing. I then rooted the new 4.1.2 install that was pushed to my phone, because the install took the root priveliges away (it rooted fine). After rooting all the issues remained it still froze when I tried to access the Contact list . After clicking the Contact icon a new blank page comes and then freezes. I tried opening the phone icon and no dialer came up. Instead it was a list of a few names (mainly the contacts left over from the old phones log or recent calls list.). If I and slid the name to the right, it would dial the phone and work fine. If I slid the name to the left the messege app came up and worked fine. However if I clicked the name it would freeze the phone. There was not an option to select a dialer anywhere. I did not even have a My Contact icon option to choose from to make a call. The only thee options that I had were above the recent call log, and they were: 1> delete, 2>call, 3> merge with google. If I chose either option or clicked on a name in the list the phone froze and I had to reboot. I cannot get My Contacts to sync up with my google account. Everthing else appears to be OK except. I did try to restore the clockworkmod rom back up to before the 4.1.2 update but that fails now also. I am stuck.I would greatly appreciate any suggestions.

Well, I would personally, do a clean install [fully wiping] and restore the rom. Generally restoring an 'old' system is generally not a good idea, especially from a 'different' device; it can be done, but issues could follow. Like I said, do a full wipe, flash your rom, and go from there.
Also, in the future, you'd be better off not restoring / using rom manager; as I've seen things go wrong in the past. It'd do you better to do it manually.

Did you go into manage apps and wipe data on contacts? Then resync....

Hello XDA Community,
i recently flashed a new rom to my mobile and wanted to restore my apps as
usual containing whatsapp as well. Everthing went well except whatsapp. I
tried to restore whatsapp with Titanium Backup, MayBackUp Pro and the
build-in restore function of whatsapp of course too. I tried every possible
copy and paste solution i could find on the internet but nothing helped.
The result was always the same the only thing which was restored were the
group chat names nothing else all my chats are gone.
I tried all suggestions from this Post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1268031 but nothing helped.
I switched from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1151765 to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2031467.
Please help me to find a solution. Thank You
Do you have the following folder on your sd card?
sdcard/WhatsApp/Databases
The chat backups should be stored in there. I've successfully uninstalled and reinstalled the app, and restored all the chats successfully before.
Yes i have the folder there otherwise i weren't able to use the restore function of whatsapp.
I reinstalled it dozen times but always the same result. Groupchat names visible but empty and all single chats are gone.
Thank u for ur reply
Check the files within that folder, open them up within a text editor or something, just to check they're not corrupted.
Instead of restoring app+data from Titanium Backup, clear app data then uninstall WhatsApp. Then try installing the app fresh from the Play Store first.
Open it and set it up fresh, hopefully will ask to restore the conversations by itself. Afterwards, restore data only with Titanium.
I tried what u suggested but it didnt work. I installed WA fresh from the Market set it up and after that i restored the data with titanium backup. When i start WA after this procedure WA told me the Database is corrupted and asked me if i want restore from sd-card but it doesnt matter if i press yes or no the result ist still the same. WA Groupchats restored but empty and single chats missing.
Thank u for ur reply
Hmm if it's telling you it may be corrupted, then unfortunately the database may be corrupted.
In the Databases folder, can you rename the msgstore.db.crypt file to something else, then rename another slightly older database msgstore.db.crypt-2013-08-XX to msgstore.db.crypt. Then uninstall and reinstall from Play Store again?
I'm hoping it's just the latest file which is corrupted, and the others backups are ok. You may not get all the messages back, you might lose a day's worth of messages if this works. Sorry if you've already tried this too, running out of ideas
Yes i tried this too. So i wanted to prove if the Backups are really corrupted. I installed another ROM (euroskank) and installed whatsapp through the playstore and restored all messages during the validating process. Viola 27.000 messages restored. So now i have absolutly no idea what i can do to solve it and restore it on the ROM i want.
Anyway Thanks for ur help

Hah you wouldn't believe me, that was going to be my next suggestion, restore an old nandroid or new ROM to see if it works. I didn't think it would work because it still has to refer to the files on the SD card, independent of ROM. Glad it's definitely not corrupted though
So once it's installed and working on euroskank, make another manual backup.
Then try Mildwild again, install WhatsApp from scratch, it really should work, finger's crossed!
So finally i could test it. AND it didn't work. Still the same problem. Thats insane. I tried even a previous version of the rom to test if it's caused by the latest one but no got the same result.
Thank u for ur help i appreciate it.

That is insane, that it works with one rom and not the other. Try asking in the ROM thread to see if anyone else has WhatsApp issues?
I'm out of ideas, sorry, hope you get it sorted somehow!
I already did and unfortunately i got no reply till now and nobody got the same problem before. So i am the Columbus here in a bad way. I messaged the developer on xda and Facebook today, i hope he will reply.
Nevermind i thank u alot for trying to help me. You were the only one who at least tried it.

The solution that worked for me...
Hi I was having the same problem as you and also couldn't find anyone who had the same issue. Anyway I was moving from a gingerbread phone to a jellybean phone. So I used a backup app called Super Backup. I tried numerous things that didn't work. This is what I did that did work.
Also backup up your backup before you start.
1. On new phone uninstall whatsapp, then delete the whatsapp folder on the internal storage.
2. Restore whatsapp from backup app.
3. Before you run whatsapp delete the whatsapp folder on the internal storage again.
4. Copy the whatsapp folder from the sd card to the internal storage.
5. Run whatsapp.
Let me know of this works for you. It did for me.
Thanks.

Hi, i have the same problem when doing the same trasition from gingerbread and runnymedemod007 transition to the MildWil 14 AOPK version,
Whatsapp finds my backup and askes for restoring, but after resoring there are no messages.
when i install the old Sense rom again i can do a restor and all messages are there...
Did you ever find out how to mak it work?

Unfortunately i didn't solve it. I settled without restoring the messages. You can try what Nicadini suggested.

Tried everything in the thread here and even restoring complete backups of the previous ROM (what works when trying to use whatsapp on a WIFI only tablet) but that doesn't even work.
I think it has something to do with the encryption in the ROM i guess or the way it stores the Phone number, as Whatsapp only wants to restore a message database for the same Phone number...

That can't be the case. If I remember right my phone number was the same as the stored number in wa that day. But if its a crypting problem of the rom u better contact the autor of it. Sry that i cant do more to help you. It got out of my hands.

I think it has to be something like that, because just as you i have made the same transition from gingerbread to MILDWILD 14 Rom, and the problem only seems to be with the WILDWILD Rom.
any other rom that i have tested, the internal restor of whatsapp works like a charm.
So the only thing that can cause the problem is the framework/UI from the Mildwild roms.
I've written to the Dev.from WILDWILD to ask assistence, but so far no reaction.
Tonight i'm going to test a few other MILDWILD Roms to see if the problem is with all the MW roms or only with the 14

UPDATE:
I tried all the other WildWild MOD Roms yesterday and the problem only seems to be with the MW-14 Rom.
With all other Roms the WhatsApp restor works perfectly.
So for now i'm going to stay with the MW CM-8 version and try to Mod that myself a bit.
Seems to be very stable and fast, Also more options in the Camera Settings and i like the ICS look.
Only downside are the quicksettings (i like them more from MW14 or Sense)

Hi,
Sorry i have to dig this thread out, as i need help. Im also facing the same problem, trying to restore my backup file from old samsung S3 phone onto my new samsung note3 phone. I believe maybe somehow, by now, you have figured it out. I need help here. All my single chat history cannot be restored.
The backup file in the database doesnt seem corrupted. I went through a conventional whatsapp restore by pasting the file in the whatsapp database folder and launch the whatsapp after installation and restore. But still, no single chat history. Only group chats.
