[Q] Text message widget keep crashing. - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Hey all.
I've encountered a very annoying problem, for some reason my text widget starts to crash. Scrolling down to the bottom there would be a "view more coversation" option but it opens a new text window instead, and if I try to quit it, it crashes the launcher. "Unfortunately, Launcher has stopped". This never happened to me before after I reflashed the stock image.
I was using stock rom and stock kernel all the time. and everything is the same after I flashed the factory image. I did recover a lot of texts. (Around 4000). But this I've recovered more before I flashed the image and there was no problem.
I've been able to find someone having the exact problem but using the LTE Verizon variant. Mine is GSM Yakuju.

Does anyone know how to fix this? I tried wiping everything, reflash everything and it just doesn't seem to work. This never happened when I updated to 4.1.1 the first time. This is confuse the hell out of me.

[Q] Problem with new OTA firmware

I've just updated my Desire (stock, not rooted) with the new firmware update (2.10.405.2) Since then some apps don't work. I press the icon/widget to start them and the first screen flashes up then disappears, sometimes with a force close error message that disappears as well. I've not tried all my apps yet, but I can't load Opera Mini, NewsRob or the stock Browser. I also can't load Gmail via the Gmail Unread Count widget, but can via the Gmail shortcut.
I've tried simple things, like restarting the phone and uninstalling then reinstalling the apps, but that's not helped.
Has anyone else got this problem? Anyone know the answer?
Try resetting your phone and then set the phone up again before trying any apps.

I was hoping to avoid having to do that, because I don't want to lose all my SMS etc.
Are there any other possibilities to fix it, or has anyone else got the same problem?
you cannot load the stock browser?!?
I updated my stock HTC Desire and everything is fine including stock browser.
sounds like a reset might be your only option unfortunately.
This is why I delete SMSs once read...one less thing to have to back up!! LOL!!!
Reset is the only way unfortunately
OK, I've tried resetting my phone and it's still not working! In fact it's got worse, because the market isn't working either!
Any more ideas?
Please?

[Q] Messaging (and DRM content) processes stopping unexpectedly on boot?

Today I took a picture with my phone and my phone froze up shortly after viewing the picture for some odd reason. So I soft reset it with a battery pull. When I started my phone back up I received a few error messages. The first one was that the DRM Content process had stopped unexpectedly (I think this was happening before my phone froze up). The second one was that the Messaging process had stopped unexpectedly, and the third was Handcent stopping unexpectedly.
After this happened I tried opening up Handcent, to which it displays the same force close error for a split second and then automatically closes. I uninstalled Handcent and tried opening the regular Messaging application, to which it displays some sort of force close error for a split second and then closes.
I was running the SyndicateROM Frozen 1.1.0. I tried updating to the ACS SyndicateROM Frozen 1.1.1 to see if it would fix my problem. It didn't
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to troubleshoot this?
You had journaling off. You can't reboot the phone without powering off or you wind up with data corruption and force closes. You need to reflash your rom and then use the re eable journaling zip in the development section. Also it wouldn't hurt if you researched things before posting, there have to be > 50 posts about this.

Download enable journaling from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1071723
Flash it after you reflash your rom.
I flashed the reenable journaling zip after reflashing my ROM. The DRM Content force close error still pops up when I boot up, and my Messaging is still crashing :/. What am I missing? Or could there be another problem?

Have you tried a different kernel? Or something you are restoring from Titanium or Mybackup is causing.
I would start from scratch go back to stock, reroot with cwm 3.0.2.5, d/l ext4 conversion here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1109362, flash ext4 conversion, flash Frozen 1.1.1, flash journaling enable. Do not restore anything see if you still have the issue. If not then something you are restoring is causing your issue.
I don't have Titanium or Mybackup. The only backups I have are within CWM, made from flashing my ROM. I will try what you suggested, thanks.
Edit:
To go to stock, do I just wipe data/factor reset from CWM? Also is there any way to do what you said while still retaining all of my contacts/texts? I cannot lose my SMS history. There is valuable information within.

Mybackup does txt and sms backups. Make sure you do a nan backup also just in case. You need to odin back to stock. Go here for step by step

Okay, I tried a bunch of SMS backup programs to no avail. Every one I tried would either crash or throw an error when it tried to back up my text messages.
I went back to stock, wiped my data/cache/system, and then flashed back Frozen 1.1.1 again. Everything worked fine until I tried recovering my data. The Messages process crashes again after recovering my data
Is my SMS history unrecoverable?
Is sms crashing or just the back up of the sms? What are you using to back up and recover your txt?

The whole reason this started was because my SMS messages application started crashing. I am trying to recover my texts. I tried using 5 or 6 SMS backup utilities, but to no avail. I didn't try anymore because I figured none of them are going to work. Something in my SMS history is borked :/
Thinking the same thing sorry. Not sure if someone else has any ideas. Do you have a nan backup from before the issue started? Yeah you might lose some txt but not all.

[Fixed] SMS counter wont reset on stock JB

Apparently freezing "Factory Mode" in TB gives you this problem. Unfroze it and counter resets.
Hey All,
I decided to give the stock JB another shot (big mistake, I know). This thing is so full of bugs its not even funny. When I get an SMS and read it then go back to the home screen, it still showing that I have a new message. The only way it will go away if I force close the app. I tried clearing the cash for the badge provider, no help. Deleted all my messages, no help. I am on a stock rooted JB. Any help appreciated.

[Q] Problems with IM/Menu and ROM

I am using rooted stock rom in my N7100. I receive a SMS or a Whatsapp message, and a bubble shows how many messages i got. Everthing is okay till now, but thats where the problem starts. I read message, exit app but that little bubble doesnt disappear.

Cant use Samsungs own photo editor. I draw and put stuff on a photo but it just doesnt save them. Reverts to normal as nothing happened.
----
When I leave any app, the bar at the bottom of screen only shows that 'apps' shortcut for a sec, then reloads every other thing in home screen. It happens all the time and no, rebooting didnt solve neither this nor the problems above.
----
And my final question. I think i'll go with DN4. I dont want to lose any data especially IM's and Gallery. So I backup with Kies3. Will I be able to restore those stuff when i flash DN4 and continue to use as nothing happened ? Same goes for reverting to stock ROM. ( Or I should only flash stock rooted ROM to avoid problems with new ROM ?)

random problems after unlock and root

hey guys, so i've an interesting problem that I've searched all over xda and google, but can't find a definitive answer/solution. Here goes:
I recently unlocked the bootloader of my t-mobile z2 force. rooted via temp flashing TWRP and magisk, everything went fine, no issues. restoring my phone went great, got a few "app unexpectedly closed" type messages every now and then, but it's settled down for the most part. the problem is that, periodically, my phone will lose sync with google (i think that's whats happening anyway). I will have no contacts in my phone app, text messages cannot be received, gmail fails to open, calendar has no events, etc etc. a quick reboot fixes everything, but then it will randomly happen again, with no indication, other than i think "i haven't recv'd any texts recently, lemme check" and i find it's happened again.
I hope this makes sense, because I'm not even sure i'm looking up the right thing in google or other xda forums. Has anyone experienced this? anyone know the answer?
Thanks in advance
Just a bump...anybody run into this or have any ideas?
I haven't had any problems like thoes. My Bluetooth goes a lil dumb from time to time and when I have wifi and Bluetooth on at the same time Bluetooth will just loose signal randomly. I'm just stock Rooted on T-Mobile.

My suggestion is to unroot, clear cache and Dalvik, and re root. See what happens and post results. Your app permissions are on for Google correct?
fastboot boot <TWRP file name>.img
Only now that you’re inside TWRP temporarily flash the TWRP .zip file you’ve saved into the phone
Reboot into TWRP again, flash Magisk

Thanks. Yes all permissions are granted for Google app. I also stopped battery optimization for it and any other phone related apps I could find. I'll give this a shot.
