Sms issues

For some reason my messages keep deleting themselves for no apparent reason. I do not use handcent or any other secondary messaging service. I've checked and double checked all of my settings and i do not have it set up to automatically delete anything at any time. I'm currently using Incredibly Re-engineered v2.3.1 and Lou's #8 kernel. The problem didn't ever occur when i was using the stock rooted rom.

So does this happen after a reboot, or just something you notice after putting your phone down then coming back to it...? Odd.
Try flashing another ROM, Lou makes a great EVO based ROM called Incredible Revolution. Give that a shot just to see if it is a ROM based issue.

Its a known issue... really annoying.

It just does it at random. I've even been looking through them and its happened. Is it just the rom you think?

I have had it happen to me on EVERY 2.2 rom I've used. Its yet to happen on 2.3.2 for me.

Any 2.3.2 sense roms that you'd suggest? I like my sense widgets.

None exist yet.

Dang it. Alright... any temporary patch that can fix the problem until some stable gingerbread roms come out?

Nope... Just hope it doesn't happen often. I use omfgb and its stable it just doesn't have sense. Cm7 is also great.

Nope. Only full wipe when switching roms. Although if youre switching kernels like u said, if youre going from one made by 1 dev and switching to another by a diff dev i would wipe the dalvik cache under advanced in recovery

Thanks alot, and another quick one, if i were to flash a rosie mod, would i do it just as i would flash a rom/kernel? And would I want to wipe the dalvik cache for that too?
EDIT: Man i have alot of stupid questions, but also how would i remove the old kernel... or do i not have to? lol.

Its all good yo. Just flash the rosie mod no wipes. The old kernel will be removed wen you flash the new one. Lol youll get the hang of it man

Flashing new kernel?

Do I need to flash back to stock kernel (evo 4g) before flashing a new one?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

No. Just make a backup, wipe your cache and dalvik, then flash kernel from recovery. Give it like 2-3 before you pass judgement on it.

Thank you!

Exactly. Just like he said too, it might take a few minutes after you wipe what's listed above to boot up. If after 5 to 10 minutes its still not working then flash another kernel. Not all evos are the same too, so what works for someone might not work for yours.

Personally, I always flash the kernel after the rom, so its done in 2 recovery sessions. Seems to alleviate the potential problems.

Same here, it lets everything get settled in a bit before swapping the kernel. Although I think he's not changing roms at this time but who knows.

Ah true, but still good advice to have on deck.

I have always flashed the kernel with the rom too, (after the rom) I am just going with a different kernel and wasn't quite sure if I needed to clean (wipe) everything. Thanks for the help

Kernel

For some reason now, my phone won't take kernels anymore. I can install ROM's and everything else, but when i try and flash a different kernel my phone won't keep it. It will reboot fine, but when i go and look in the settings to see if the kernel is there it is not installed. I do the usual clear dalvik and the cache then flash the kernel. It says it installed it, but it doesn't. Has this ever happened to anyone else, and if so how do you fix it? I have also completely wiped the phone and that did not help either. I have a HTC EVO 4g. I hope someone can help me with this problem.

Hey Partyman this may sound silly but did you double check that you're not flashing the wrong kernel with the rom you're flashing?

Lewa OS. The kernel is mason gb v15. I never had a problem before until I used gruesome wolfs script that is supposed to clean everything to install a ROM.
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium

keep in mind not every kernel will work with every custom rom, sometimes it will say installed but it really didnt. other times your phone just will boot loop at the white evo screen

Well just to let you know....Problem solved on installing kernel's. I changed over to Smelkus Mod and it worked perfect. My Anon RA must have went bad or something.
Mod can you please close this thread now. Thanks.

[Q] Anything other than a TW and my camera just wont work, Help?

Hi there!
I have had an s3 for a few days now and love it!.
Any TW rom and my camera works just fantastic.
Any cm10/aokp/miui/etc rom and I just cant use the camera no matter what app I use to try it, whether it be the built in app or camera360/etc.
Driving me nuts and would love someone to help me. Anyway research I have done hasnt told me what I'm doing wrong.
I wipe cache/dalvik/factory reset/system before each rom. I have tried different kernels but nothing has helped.
Any gurus out there have any ideas on what I can do to fix this?

Your install process would be and please link the files you are flashing... I'll try and help you. I've seen a few people mention this the past couple days.

The most recent I tried to flash was Illusion v1.1.18 - (d2tmo, d2att & d2vzw) - 1|18|13 from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2037028
I downloaded Illusion-v1.1.18-d2tmo.zip and gapps-jb-20121212-signed.zip.
I went into recovery which is twrp and the most recent version. I installed it with the goo.im app.
When in recovery I did:
1) Factory Wipe
2) Wipe Cache
3) Wipe Dalvik
4) Wipe System
I would then click Install and select the rom file, and after it succesfully flashed I would then flash the gapps file. All were successful.
I would then reboot and the rom would boot up fine. I setup my google account and all that then for the heck of it I would reboot.
I then would try the camera app and it would complain that it couldnt connect to the camera basically. I went into the play store and tried a free version of camera 360, puddle camera, etc and all would not work.
I went back into recovery, wiped cache and dalvik again, hopped on one foot, faced east, and clicked my heels together. Upon reboot the camera does not work.
I have wiped all that and tried to install [Kernel][JB] Leankernel: Minimalistic Kernel for D2TMO/D2ATT (AOSP) v2.3 [1/17/13] which flashed fine. Upon reboot I could change voltages to undervolt, mess with governors but cameras still do not work.
I have a backup of two TW roms (one stock) and both of the those roms work beautifully with whatever camera I try, including the built in/stock camera.
I hoped I didn't leave out something. If there is something I missed than I'm an idiot because it seems like I am really missing something.
Thanks for your help.

I don't see any reason your steps lead to that, the exact steps I take every time to flash. I'm researching but in the mean time, go to app manager and wipe cache and data from gallery... Are you using the same Gapps over and over on each try? Might wanna try a different set.

I did that earlier with no luck.
I just force stopped on gallery, wiped cache/data, rebooted, and I tried the camera only to get the same message.
Thank you for that tip but I will continue my research also.
Just because I looked at about phone.
Model of phone is SGH-T999 (just in case someone thinks I'm in the wrong forum"
Baseband version is T999UVDLJA
Kernel is of course 3.0.59-leanKernel
AOKP Version is Illusion v1.1.18 d2tmo
Build number is aokp-d2tmo-userdebug 4.2.1 (I truncated the rest)

I have downloaded this gapps twice for the last rom http://goo.im/devs/itsmikeramsay/gapps-jb-20121212-signed.zip.
For the miui rom there was a gapps that was specific to miui and had miui in the name. The miui rom's camera didnt work.
I'll look for a different gapps if that might be the problem but since I have tried a couple roms and a few different gapps I feel that might not be the issue.
I still will give it another try though. Just have to find another gapps to try.

try these just in case they're corrupted. http://d-h.st/dtk these are the ones I use

I redid the entire install process from scratch using that gapps and the camera is still not working.
Ugh. Thanks for the link.
WIll keep trying :/

run a log cat and post it. Other then that maybe bad firmware...
did you update your phone to stock JellyBean via Over the Air or Odin? it updates the partitions which could be the issue, mmayyybbeee???!?!? Shots in the dark right now, just trying to help as I've never seen this issue before solved.

It had JB on it when I got it almost 2 days ago. I tried to do an OTA when I got it but it said I was up to date.
Let me do a restore to stock and see what version it is.
Edit: Restored stock. Says android version 4.1.1, Kernel 3.0.31-370274se.infra, Build number JR003L.T999UVDLJA

Was it already rooted?

It was new, out of the box. I watched the guy unrap it. It is one of the newer grey metal color looking ones. It was not rooted. I did that. Should I do an Odin to bring the device back to complete stock and start from scratch?
Will take a while since I have no idea where to start with all that

Thats the best suggestion I have. Maybe someone else will step in with an idea.

Hey thanks again for your help. I ended up falling asleep but installed Wicked V6 (tw based rom) and liking it enough that I will wait on a aokp/cm10.x rom until I get up the motivation to try again.
I'm sure I'll get an itch for a different rom in about a week though

Do you do a clean wipe every time you install a new rom? Clean wipe cache, dalvik, data, system, internal sd? Try downloading rom thru pc then transfer to your sd.

Yeah its weird I always do a clean wipe even when they say its unnecessary but the phone started acting up a few days ago I think it may have been after I restored to one of my old ROMs and from there the phone has just been acting really crazy its very annoying it happens most when I try to use internet app though I noticed

What kernels are you using? Are you using set Cpu? Trickster mod? At the same time? I use set Cpu for the power profile. But for undervolt i use trickster. Or try to just use one and uninstall the other.

I would definitely try a different kernel. Maybe your phone can only handle stock kernels or something which Jedi doesn't use. Having a CM kernel still lingering through a flash while running Jedi can't be too good either, it's possible that's what happened? Go back to just stock rooted and see if the problem remains.

That's where you will find a stock ROM. Flash the factory image with Odin. If you don't know what stock is or how to flash a kernel it's best to go back to stock and don't run custom ROMS. Just read the thread I linked and post any questions about the process in that thread.
You can flash the factory image using Mobile Odin from the Play Store and there's an option to keep root.
