[Q] Several Problems

Everytime i boot up my epic this appears:
The application Titanium Backup (process.comkoushidutta.rommanger) has stopped unexpeectedly. Please try again.
This also appears everytime i boot into Facebook, Rom Manager, Google, XDA App.
Im running ACS Syndicate ROM v.1.2
Also, what Kernel fits Syndicate ROM the best and how can i change my lock screen into a puzzle?
And how do I put my phone back into stock? Just in case I have to send it back you know?
Thanks For All Your Help!
Odin and reflash and don't change kernels
Srf has that problem where it well just fc everywhere after a flash
Don't bother changing kernels cause they're the most dangerous flash plus you get a pretty good one with srf
You won't have to send our back but if you wanted to use odin
If you want the puzzle lock flash a7 lock theme or how ever many locks there are

Uninstall ROM manager. It does not work well with most Epics. Then boot into Clockwork with 3 finger from power off and clear cache and Dalvik.
Do I Have To Wipe Each Of Them 3x Or Just Once?
And will that fix all my other apps from force closing?
Also, everytime I send a text it won't go through UNLESS I stay in the text messaging area. If I send a text and then for instance go back to my home page the message won't send. Any help on that?

Well first off SRF 1.2 doesn't come with a kernel.
Now to the OP:
When I have used SRF in the pass I preferred Vision. YMMV!
One thing you want to do is enablejournaling to get that go here

For a pretty good theme with the locks go here

Thanks!
But as far as apps, they still force closes
CAN THAT BE STOPPED!?
Also, what is "overscroll glow" and how can I get it?
And, where can I download the black market from?
@Taz what exactly is "journaling"?

Journaling does a extra write to ensure a good copy of data.
Not sure about "overscroll"
You might need to reflash the ROM boot up to your home screen let the media scan complete then reboot to CWM and flash journaling it won't fix the issue but will prevent it from happening again.
Okay & I just ran into another problem:
Everytime I open my music player it plays one song then freezes
By journaling would it fix this problem?
Also, it seems as if when I send a text the message doesnt send unless I stay in the message area for instance:
I send a message then go back to the home scren. The message won't send
I send a message & waits for it to send. The message sends.

Ok have you reflashed then enabled journaling? if no then that is where you start. You will continue to have problems till you do this. If you still have problems get back to us. I suspect you haven't done anything yet.
See everytime I try & download the journal, the download forces close just like the apps, so I'm sorta stuck

Download to PC and copy to sd card. Did you download the ROM wireless? If so you could have a bad D/L as well.
No i downloaded syndicate via PC, but my computer is down now so I've bee doing wireless downloading and recently used ACS Updater to get this theme.

I would recommend copying the journaling by PC. You still have to reflash.
Okay being that I cannot get access to my PC, is there any other way to do this? The only positive in this scenerio is that I can get into clockwork and titanium backup.

You need a PC if you can't get it to move over cuz of crashes use CWM and mount sd card that way. Just do your back up FLASH your ROM if it is still on the card use PC to copy then enable journaling. If you have drop box on the device and it don't crash when open drop box it. Regardless you HAVE to REFLASH before you do anything else. Do you still have a nanback up? Go into CWM and restore from that to get yourself up and running till you can get all files you need onto your device.
Thanks all I had to do was flash the rom
Now should I upgrade my kernel to genocide or stay on twilight?
And I'm downloading the journal now, but how will I know if its on?
Edit: Ahh I found out what the problem is.
I have journal & all, but whe I installed the "shake & bake" theme, my apps started force closing.
Are there any good themes similar to that particular one?
Edit2: After installing the theme and the problems occurrred again, I reflashed my rom but now I keep getting force closes even without the theme. Any help?

Stock clock not working .....please help

Ok ..I let my son play with my phone for two minutes ,and now when press on my clock icon,it says app not installed..I went to settings/apps...and is only showing up in all section ,and is at 0 data? Any way to get me back up and running again??thanks

Well if you're talking about the stock clock then it SHOULD only appear under 'All', also having 0 data isn't bad as I can get that by pressing clear data. Have you tried Disabling and Re-enabling the app? Maybe force stopping might help too.
Thanks Sgtpanda for your reply, it looks like he was messing around in my file manager at the time..... I'm going crazy trying to figure this out. the button on top where your supposed to be able to disable/enable app...it says uninstall updates..but I have no update for the app? It just disappears altogether when I press uninstall updates...until I reboot again it shows the same thing?.......beating my head..

Okay then, open up your file manager and browser to /system/app, scroll down and there should be DeskClockGoogle.apk at 473.90k and DeskClockGoogle.odex ad 90.27K. Are both of those still present on your device?

Yes they are....just tried to install through there and no dice.
Right so when you try to install the app it says 'Application not installed', because if that's the case then I just broke my clock by moving it and when I put it back I got the same problem as you, the solution was to switch the device on and off which sounds really stupid, but have you tried that?

II tried a reboot and It didn't work either, I don't wanna have to factory reset but I just might have to.. Thank for your help
Well that should work, if you've already done it then hope it did, otherwise my last idea would be to extract the app from a stock rom and overwrite your files.

Camera App isn't saving pictures! Awarding $10 for solution.

My camera app isn't saving anything locally whenever I take a picture. In fact, there's no gallery icon in the camera app at all that you can normally click on it to take you there.
Also, when I try to attach a photo to a message from the MMS app, Gallery crashes and photo never attaches.
Finally, when I load up Gallery manually, all it sees is my 'Screenshots' folder and a couple of screenshots that I have saved in there. There's no camera photos anywhere.
I'm running AOKP JB B2 and FrankoKernel Milestone 5
Any ideas? I've tried SD rescan already. I'm wondering if I need to reformat my internal storage. I've just noticed that my 'external storage' isn't showing up when I plug my GN into my PC as well and whenever I run SDRescan, SwiftKey starts getting angry and tells me I have no language files and I have to redownload the English dictionary again.
Finally, I'm offering $10 via PayPal to the person who can help me fix this issue. Thanks!
Is your camera folder still there?

Have you tried using an alternative camera app, to make sure the internal SD is working with photos? I suggest CameraICS, it'll be the closest other than CameraJB+, which is a paid app

Downloading now. My service is abysmal at work so it's taking a little bit.
EDIT: CameraICS has no icon for the Gallery when taking pictures. The pictures that are taken don't get saved to SD card. Trying to attach a picture to a message with it crashes CameraICS, instead of crashing Gallery as with the stock JB camera.
You might try re- downloading your ROM and re-flashing with a complete wipe

I believe this has persisted past a couple of ROM installs but I will install AOKP JB B4 when I get home tonight and see what happens.
Will update in ~3-4 hours when I get home and have time to do this. Maybe corrupted GAPPS? Is that the package with Camera / Gallery in it?

Depends on the Gapps package. Some have the Google built Gallery/Camera (with Picasa sync) others leave the source built version which has extra features such as using the power button for the shutter (but no Picasa sync).

Just finished flashing GAPPS and AOKP JB B4 from here:
http://aokp.co/index.php/releases/_/jb-build-4-r32
Verified the MD5 of both before flashing. And the same exact problem is persisting. Gallery crashes when attaching through MMS and camera photos end up lost in the ether, never saved to SD card.

This happened to me when I first rooted my Nexus. The camera toke the pics, but they weren't saved... plus some other weird things.
It ended being a file/folder permissions issue. It seems I did a nandroid backup restoration in a wrong way (I wanted to restore my previous data, after the mandatory wipe out of the rooting method).
Anyways... The post that gave me tips for the fix was this one (from user cmstlist):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=26967620&postcount=7
Sometimes the file ownerships get messed up after a cycle of recovering the OS and restoring files.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...1515291&page=2
If you have any other directories/files that you can't modify or delete, then boot into CWM recovery, plug in the USB cable, go into adb shell. Also make sure that /data is mounted in the CWM mounts menu. Then:
cd /data/media
chown -R media_rw.media_rw *
This fixed it for me and others.

Cannot click install....

This one has me confused..... I wiped out my phone for giggles and grins and flashed SGH-T989_UVLH1_Stock_Deodex_Rooted_signed.zip from my sd card cause kies ALWAYS seems to fail on install moving on so I flashed this Rom and had noticed an interesting effect. No matter what I do when I want to install software I cannot click the "install"button no matter how much I touch it, it fails to deal respond. Now I can click the cancel button no worries but not the install. No matter which way my screen is rotated. Any clues as to why and before anyone asks yes install non market apps is checked

Application Manager -> All. Select Media Storage, and clear data. Reboot the phone. This will force the system to rescan all media files.

The same thing happened with me, and the only workaround I found to fix this problem, is by copying the pictures from phone to computer, then used kies to copy the pictures from the computer back to phone, and it worked.

Might I suggest, sadly, the last two options:
Completely delete the entire SD card. If that doesn't work, format your phone. If you're rooted, backup any NECESSARY data, (no options, settings or anything like that, just in case it's related to the settings, but you can make a back up, just don't restore), and then reset device to factory default and see if that eliminates the issue.
Wait, are you rooted? On stock Android Galaxy Note 2? Or do you have any special changes done to your phone?

Are you on CM10?
I believe that this is a bug that has been hitting Samsung phones. It's either, a) a fault in the MMC chip, or b) a CM10 bug. I've had that happen 3 times to me, the 1st time I had no backups and lost over 10GB of media from my External SD Card. The other 2 times I was prevented and lost everything but had a backup. So protip : backup each time you have something new on your phone. Better safe than sorry.
Now, download this program and run it. It'll recover almost all the deleted photos from your SD : http://www.piriform.com/recuva

Hi, I dont know if I have CM10 :S .. i only know that I have anything as brand new (stock rom).
I found a solution but it`s not 100% working.
I downloaded Fish bowl gallery and go in setting>advanced>find missing photos> and than I select the maps where the photos are but are not shown in the stock gallery.
I waited till photos are added and now i have 100 photos (of 117 total) added in my stock gallery (but i still does not have other 17 photos)
Thank you
You should return your phone. If your pictures aren't showing up even after flashing an official rom then something is wrong.
