I reflashed srf 1.2 and the genocide kernal because I was having alot of buggy issues. Everything is working alot better but I have noticed one thing that is kind of irritating. I can send text, pic, and movie texts fine but when I try to add an attatchment and select audio to send a sound it comes up with this message.
The Application Message (process com.android.mms) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.
Then there is a button that I have to push that says force close.
It only does it when I am trying to send a sound. Very annoying. Does anyone have any ideas on what to do?

I saw at least one post if not a few more in the SRF 1.2 support thread about this very same issue. You may want to try searching that thread with some select key words, but I don't think there was a solution/fix.
A typical troubleshoot response in that thread would be for you test the possible bug after each completed step below:
Clear the program's cache: Settings > Applications > Manage Applications, locate the app, open that drill down screen and clear the cache.
in CWM under the advanced menu, use "fix permissions"
in CWM, clear your cache and Dalvik cache.
in CWM, wipe both caches, then reflash the rom (not wiping your /data)
in CWM, wipe both caches and data, then reflash.
Many issues have been attributed to bad flashes and/or bad downloads, so those steps are used to help weed out the bulk of the bad bug reports.
If this feature not working annoys you enough, feel free to give those steps a try.
Could also try clearing the app data.
Posted by some phone named the Epic.
I have had these errors a few times myself (android system,acore,gapps,messaging,etc errors) and I have not been able to figure out the root cause yet but just wiping Cache and Dalvik hasn't worked for me. I had to actually Odin a few times. I am constantly testing different themes, hacks, etc. so I can't say its a ROM issue specifically. I would say to start fresh and make sure to add journal on zip. The people getting these issues seem for the most part (maybe not everyone) to be running journal off

So I am kind of a noob when it comes to all this. I should probably read a little more, so what is a journal?
Also when you say start fresh do you mean use odin and go back to stock eco5?
Then re-download all my stuff clean and flash again.

Yes sir. When I say start fresh, I do mean Odin to stock and re-root and everything. Right below the link for the 1.2 ROM is a link to flash the journal on zip. I don't know the best definition for what journaling does but if you drop your phone and battery pops out or your battery dies, you won't get a bunch of force closes. It writes system info to a file as a backup protecting you from data corruption and other issues. If you have had issues on SRF 1.2, try the journal on zip. People are split on using it because you get a very slight performance boost with no journal but your phone is much more stable with it.

Been answered a bunch of times, so check out the above links.
Start fresh 9/10 here means Odin back to stock without restoring any data from backups. This is used as a troubleshooting step in order to remove any potential anomalies when testing a possible bug.

A few months ago, using ROM manager, I upgraded my ROM from Revolution to cyanogenmod 6. I then updated frequently, following all of the nightlies with great success. I jumped onto CM7 when it came out and it worked. When I tried to update past the first release candidate, however, I noticed my stock Browser, Gmail, Maps, Google Documents, and Google Reader now crash. I even cleared all caches and data upon updating.
BROWSER and MAPS problem description: Both programs begin to open up and refresh themselves and then almost immediately disappear--sending me back to the home screen of my phone.
GMAIL and DOCs let me see myheaders, but when I click on one, it starts to open, blinks and attempts to refresh a few times, then sends me back to the list of message headers (gmail) while Docs sends me to the phone home screen.
Again, I am not getting force close messages. I have tried using ROM manager to fix permissions w/ restart to no avail. I tried redownloading Google Apps from ROM manager for 2.3.4, reflashed the Gapps, still no go.
I am completely baffled. Does anyone know what is causing the problem?
Tried a complete wipe? As in wipe data/factory reset, format boot and system?

Thank you so much for your reply. I'm sweating over here.
I just wiped data/factory reset, format boot and format system, reinstalled ROM w/ Gapps from ROM Manager, fixed permissions.
(1) The stock Browser still closes itself w/o opening any pages (no force close message). Just has Google's web address in the bar at the top, looks like its going to open it and POOF. Gone. No force close.
(2) Maps - Opens, zooms in on my location, looks good and then POOF. Gone. No force close.
(3) Gmail - Shows me headers, seems stable, click on header, looks like it's opening, white screen swipes in, sends me back to headers.
Basically, not much changed after the wipes.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: I am using an Seiko(sp?) extended battery. Could this be a factor?
If you are using cm7.x.x, make sure you are installing the correct gapps. make sur you are installing the gb-gapps for cm7. Hopefully that wil work for you.

I downloaded the newest gapps in Rom Manager and applied. Same issues.
Just to be sure, this is what I consider a full wipe:
In recovery:
Wipe data/factory reset
Wipe cache
Under Mounts and storage:
Format boot
Format system
Format cache
Format data
Under advanced:
Wipe dalvick
Back to recovery:
Install rom/gapps
Use cwm 3.0.0.7 for amoled
Use cwm 3.0.0.8 for slcd
Do all of this from recovery, not through rom manager.
That was some seriously detailed instructions. Wow - much appreciated. Followed to the detail in case I missed something that I didn't wipe. *FINGERS CROSSED*
Argh. When I booted, punched in my Google account, the Market installer came up, checked all, ended up in endless Market white-screen loop. Let it sit for quite a while, the beast never stopped, restarted. Got to the home screen and tried opening the browser... still not working.
Between this and last message, I restored my old 7.0 ROM and like I thought, it was still working. *MIND BLOWN*
Not sure what else to try at this point. I've never had a problem installing gapps on cm7. If I think of something more, I'll certainly repost.

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

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?

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.

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?
Hi, everyone; adding to the flood of questions...
I've been having some issues after a reboot lately:
- a couple of my apps will disappear. Namely Line Runner and the Merriam Webster Dictionary. I did some searching on this earlier and people who have had similar problems said it was due to the apps being installed on SD. I moved them to the phone, which seemed to solve the problem, but:
- rebooting also seems to make me lose my latest Google Search and Maps updates. The market will prompt me to update these. These apps are already on the phone, so no clue how to fix that one. But the most annoying thing is:
- after reboot, several of my game apps will force close when I try to open them. It seems like it's the more processor-intense ones: Pew Pew, Osmos, Anomaly, World of Goo. I thought maybe it was because of the undervolting/underclocking settings I have (from GideonX), but the apps work fine (running quite smoothly) after I install them, as long as I don't reboot. As soon as I reboot, if I try to open them again I get FC. If I uninstall then reinstall, they run fine again.
Any ideas? I'm running Juggernaut 4.1 with faux's 009u kernel and, as I said above, Gideon's script. I tried one reboot back to faux's stock clock/voltage settings, but I still got FCs on the apps. Granted, I didn't try it again or give it time to settle in or anything.
Any thoughts, folks? Thanks!
fix permissions? fresh wipe and install? clear cache? fiddle around
Ah, forgot to mention. Tried all of the above (fix permissions, clear cache, reflashed ROM, even recovered to my pre-custom ROM backup and reflashed from there).
I did some more testing on this, and I think I've narrowed down the problem. I flashed back to stock voltage/clock settings under faux's kernel, then reinstalled one of the apps I had issues with (Osmos). Upon reboot it still ran okay. So it seems I won't get force closes after reboot IF the app was installed under stock settings.
Does anyone know why undervolting and/or underclocking would cause apps to force close only after reboot?
EDIT:
Well, never mind. I did some more testing, and what I thought worked last time didn't work again. Must have just gotten lucky that time. Sigh.

Don't want to count my chickens, but using super wipe seems to have done the trick so far! Using super wipe before flashing Jugg 5.0 seems to have gotten rid of my problem of FC apps.
Thanks again!
So I have MikG 3.1.1 with ducks combat theme, although I doubt that has any relevance, but up until today, my market worked fine. I could update apps, download apps, everything. But today when I went to try and download Instagram and then some games.... no matter what I do (Besides a full wipe and reflash.) I can't get it to work!!!
I've tried clearing cache, D-cache, data from market, uninstall market and placeing it into system/app folder with the modified permissions.... BUT NOTHING WORKS?
So what the hell can I do besides a full reflash? I really don't want to do a reflash because I ****ing hate putting apps back on my phone and recustomizing my settings
Might work if you use Titanium Backup to backup apps and settings, then do the wipe and restore from the backup made. Also probably wouldn't hurt to dig around for a market update

That's just it though, I don't mind TB, it's just a pain in the ass because some of the apps I have to actually DL from the market; if it's not working then I won't be able to restore all my apps. And I've tried other apk's laying around. I don't get it... This seems recent because there's a lot of threads I see from around the start of april but no possible fix, not for evo's yet anyway
Any help here guys it's driving me totally crazy. I've tried downloading an old market version before it got updated to "Google Play" and I can't even get it to open and update... WTF is going on here?
I literally have done nothing new to my phone in the past week. I was browsing apps the other day and downloaded pudding camera fine no problem. Wake up today to download another for my tumblr, but now everytime I try and wipe data/cache of Play Store, followed by trying to download something it FC's and will further FC, not even opening up afterwards.
I really don't want to reflash my ROM but it seems like I have no other option... Come on people, I know this issues has to be floating around with some kind of fix.
I don't know if this'll help, but have you tried booting into recovery and fixing permissions.

Go over to the Samsung epic touch 4g forum, go to themes and apps, find the thread "inverted Google apps" by rujules23 and go to his site. Download the market v3.5.16 for the evo, should just be called market v3.5.16 and not have E4GT on the end the E4GT version is specific to the epic touch and flash the zip in recovery that market should work for you, it will say market and have a blue and white shopping bag icon, it's inverted black with blue trim and modified to say market instead of play store on the icon. It fixed my play store problems when it kept acting weird(purchased apps saying they weren't purchased, FC's, apps incompatible, etc)

Yes I have tried. I've even tried the modded apk.
I will however, albeit being inverted, try the other suggestion with the flashable zip and post back with results
There's been a known issue with some of the new versions Google Play Store not downloading and throwing up error codes and such.
So I just downloaded one of the early versions until they iron out the kinks.
Here's the one that seems to work ok found here: http://www.theandroidsoul.com/download-google-play-store-apk-3-4-6/
Its the 3.4.6 version. Scroll down.

Tried the inverted, no dice. In fact, worse than before. I can't even agree to the TOS and it instantly FC's on me. At least before I could wipe data and cache and browse, until I tried to download something.
Going to try the previous version as mentioned. However, won't it try to auto update when I open it?
Still nothing. Constantly getting the error. The only difference now is I cannot even browse the market now. I aknowledge that market is changing to play store, it crashes... I open it again and asks me to accept ToS. Then instantly FC's.
Any other fixes guys? I'm beginning to think I have to reflash my rom which I really don't want to.
Any MikG users here can confirm if I can just flash the Update version over my current setup to maintain my apps and settings or will that break my theme and everything else? CUrrent theme is Ducks Combat
Did you delete the market completely before installing the inverted one?

Checked on some of my old posts and may have found a fix to my FFC camera issue which is unrelated to this thread. What IS related however, is when I was flashing it, I accidentally wiped my sdext and now I can't unlock my phone for some reason. Just my wallpaper and my status bar...
So against my wishes it would seem I have to reflash the entire mikg rom. (

I'd been using FF18 for quite a while without incident, but after upgrading to FI27 (not OTA, via the one-click method), Google Play is hanging the system immediately after successfully downloading and installing any given app. It puts me on the usual page allowing me to open the app, I press open, and wham, the system freezes until it reboots automatically about a minute later. The app that I installed then runs fine.
(In testing this several times, I should mention that one time I actually was able to open an app I just installed, but it hung about 10 seconds in, and the system rebooted as usual. It ran fine after that.)
I've searched around a bit for this and see that I'm hardly the first to encounter this issue. Sometimes it occurs when no recent update has been performed at all. Unfortunately, I haven't really found a solution yet. The best I've seen is to delete the data for Google Play and Download manager, and rebooting, which I've done to no effect. I've also tried uninstalling Google Play, but I think in this case that just leaves me with the same version that I had, the one that came with FI27 (in any case, that didn't help either).
How does one go about troubleshooting this type of problem? I suppose wiping out the phone and starting over would fix it, but I was hoping for more of a surgical rather than nuclear approach. After all, on a PC, you don't reformat when you have a problem with a program.

You stated you upgraded so I'm assuming you didn't do a fresh install. Even if you did do a fresh install, restoring data & apps from an older version could cause problems. You should try a fresh load and work your way back from there.
Edit: Saw you did the one-click. Still think you should try a full wipe and try it again with a fresh load to see how it goes.

Yes, I chose the nodata FI27, since it said that it was good for same-version or upgrades (in this case, ICS to ICS), but I will choose the nuke-from-space one if there's no way out of this, though wouldn't just resetting to factory defaults at this point do the same thing?
It's a little bit disturbing that an issue with one app, albeit an important (though not essential) one, can require wiping the phone. If this were to come up again for some reason, maybe just one day out of the blue and not related to putting on a new ROM, it would be nice to know a way out.
Perhaps I can grab a log from somewhere with ADB?

If you have a custom kernel with recovery make a backup. Or get one and do it and then do a full wipe and fresh load. That is the only way you'll know for sure.
Yes, I will, but I thought I'd live with it a while to see what I could learn.
I've found that opening the newly-installed app is not the issue: simply installing a new app is. If I wait on the "Open" screen right after an install, and do nothing, within a minute the system will freeze and reboot.
Interestingly, updating apps does not trigger the problem, as numerous apps have updated this week, even one that Google Play wanted me to approve manually. Go figure.
Anyway, I have a logcat of an example in case anyone is interested. In this case, I initiated an install at 15:26, which is when the log begins. It ends shortly after the reboot.
