You didn't delete the stock mms/sms app did you?
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] DetCityCed:
Actually I did. I kinda figured that was the issue so then I downloaded the stock MMS/SMS app and still no luck. Im running out of ideas and it seems no one is responding with suggestions, only telling me their not having this issue and is not even using the same ROM I am. Would you happen to have any other ideas?
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] madzozs:
I'd imagine you'd get more info if you explained what issues you are having.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] DetCityCed:
I cant send or receive MMS. i get an error stating service not activated on network, though i do have txt msg on my account.

No, just reinstall virus, you'll be fine. Sometimes the stock apps don't like to be re-installed.

[Nexus One Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HTC_Bradlee:
It's a weird issue. Vibration works for incoming text messages, calls, haptic feedback and unlock screens.

I just updated from CM 7.0.0 to 7.0.1 to 7.0.2 (I got the push notification before the "recall" was issued, but everything worked under 7.0.1).

Yes, vibrate is turned on for the Gmail account I want. I have two other accounts set up without vibrate.

I've checked settings, I've even downloaded Sound Manager and made sure to set "Vibrate All" but I have been unable to get this working.

Anything anyone can think of to help?

try to reset you phone
[Thunderbolt General] schwab16:
Ok look at these pictures, it shows me that I'm connected to LTE, even though I have a bad signal yet I get no 4G icon and no data. I'm very confused because it was working fine but then just stopped, are my modem settings messed up? Because when have I have Rev. A. set to eHRPD I get nothing so I have it on Rev. A. To enable, and when I put radio to cdma(PRL) I at least get 3G, but no 4G when I'm set to LTE/evdo as you can see in the pics, even though it says I'm connected. So are my settings messed up in another way? I have tried restores different roms, and have even put on the new radio, no luck, I don't think its a faulty phone because it was working before and now it still shows it recognizes the LTE, but I get no 4G in the status bar, so I'm very confused, I really don't feel like unrooting just to get it replaced because I think I'm just missing some setting or something. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
[Thunderbolt General] necosino:
Turn airplane mode on, wait 3 minutes, turn it off, and you should be good to go. As 4G continues to roll out, there are bound to be bugs and hickups.
[Thunderbolt General] mokitaco:
-95 signal strength is really weak. i wouldnt be surprised if it didnt register because the signal is so weak. i guess the bigger question would be why isnt it switching to 3g when the signal is so poor
[Thunderbolt General] setite:
I have a similar issue. My 4G icon will be visible and it will be working. I deliver pizzas so I leave the phone in my car tethered to my XOOM. When I get back to my car everything will look fine but my data wont be working. Sometimes if I try to go to a website on my phone within a minute or so it will recover, but I've been having to do the airplane mode thing. It works but still takes several minutes to get internet back. I'm in Las Vegas and 4G works just fine. I started having the problem recently. I think when BAMF went to the latest RUU base, the LTE/3G transition fixes seem to have had the opposite effect.
[Thunderbolt General] schwab16:
Maybe that might be it at my house, but when I'm in town where it shows i have a perfect 4G signal it still doesn't connect
[Thunderbolt General] setite:
What are your Radio versions. I am presently reverting my radios since my problems started when I updated to the latest ones.

[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brianafischer:
So I just finished putting the final tweak on a re-install of Vegan Ginger. My previous install had some issues with long boot times and the Gallery was not synchronizing with my Picasa Web Photos. The last step in the process was wiping the external SDcard which was complaining from Ginger since I formatted originally to FAT32 on my PC and was unsure of the "preferred" format for Android/Gingerbread. So I went into settings, and under sdcard2 selected "Erase". I then attempted to mount and got some errors regarding the sdcard was empty or not formatted, so I selected "Format". I attempted to re-mount again and got the same error. So I figured that I would give the CWM format a try and rebooted into CWM. I then selected "format sd-ext" and CWM complained that apps2sd did not exist. I then rebooted the tablet through the CWM main menu.

Somehow in this process my internal sdcard was formatted!:mad:

The next boot, Vegan Ginger displayed the G Tab Devs and Vegan Launch screen but would boot loop about 5 times until the screen went black.

I was able to boot into ClockWorkMod (CWM) and attempts to mount /data or /sdcard result in:

mount /sdcard

Can't mount /sdcard
Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk3p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk2p1)
(No such file or directory)

mount /data

Can't mount DATA:!
Can't mount /dev/block/mmcblk3p1 (or /dev/block/mmcblk2p1)
(No such file or directory)

I attempted to do a restore through CWM which resulted in a failure.

Any suggestions on how to get back to a running system? My guess is the following:

format data

format sdcard

The following information would be very helpful:

Is there any chance recovering the current system?

Is it possible to do a "system snapshot" of my tablet to avoid this issue in the future?

What is the preferred Android external SD card format?

Thanks!

I had this same issue with a 32gb micro sdcard formatted in fat32. After finally getting things back in order with nvflash/wipe/reload, Im hesitant to try again. Any idea on the cause or how to prevent it from happening?
[G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] schettj:
In CWM, do a backup (this is the nandroid backup mentioned often here on xda)

When you boot into android, copy the backup file OFF the device, and onto a desktop PC, or a USB flash drive - anywhere but onto any storage that is on the gtab.

Repeat both those steps any time you're about to make major changes, or do any formatting, or otherwise play with sharp objects near your gtab.

When you screw the pooch, you can always copy your latest backup back to the backup directory on the gtab, and then restore from CWM. You may need to nvflash first to get the thing into some sane state, of course. But you'll have the image which will save lots of setup time after...

[T-Mobile LG G2x] KnitGnosis:
Picked up the G2x the first day it came out. Definitely love it over my old Nokia N97. Being this is my first Android device I followed the advice of some friends and got the Android Task Killer (ATK) to help save battery life.

I know the battery life is having issues in general, but I'd like to do what I can.

When I open ATK and kill the running apps I notice that if I open it again a few minutes later all the apps are back running again, like FaceBook, AppPace, CarHome... and most of the bloatware T-Mo preinstalled on the phone.

Wasn't sure if it is normal for these tasks to keep running even after I kill them once or if I have something messed up.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] diablos991:
The older versions of android benefitted from a task killer.

Newer versions do not need one and using one can actually hinder performance.

Sent from my LG-P999
[T-Mobile LG G2x] DeezNotes:
Some tasks stay running for notifications and stuff. Download OS Monitor and you'll see some of those apps don't consume any CPU.

Be sure to configure notifications and sync properly for some apps... like Facebook. I think the default is every hour which can be murder on a battery.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jimbo831:
Task killers are really not useful with Android and hasn't been for a long while. Just because a task is "running" doesn't mean it's consuming any resources: battery, RAM, CPU. Android will properly manage these background tasks and task killers can end up using more battery than any tasks to do their thing. Especially with a high end phone like the G2x that has plenty of CPU and RAM, no need to bother with one, it will likely just make it worse.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] electric33l:
wow, in the exact same situation here! love my old n85, but its time had come. the multitasking implementation on symbian was amazing, but i guess android takes care of it for you :D I don't use a task killer, and i've rooted my phone and deleted all T-Mobile bloatware, so I'm not having any problems with random apps starting up for no reason.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] jrwingate6:
There is a app called "Fast Reboot". It is a lot more beneficial than any task killer. It basically does what it says. It will reboot your device without your phone turning off.

Hi I was Vodafone branded on 1.39 then I flashed a custom Rom a few weeks ago, then I decided to unbrand and install a unbranded HTC 1.32 , but now I don't seem to have a bootloader screen when I press volume down + power??? Is this normal on unbranded stock roms?? Also when I pull the battery and re-insert it, the phone comes straight back on as soon as I slide the battery back in?? I don't seem to have time to put my finger on power button the phone just seems to power up by itself even without the battery cover.

As the title states, since rooting my Thunderbolt, I'm completely unable to connect to it through Eclipse. I posted in the Thread for the BAMF ROM as that's what I'm running, but after Nandroiding back to just after rooting, the same issue is there.

From the few posts I've read (there were only two hits on google) it appears to be related to the permanent ADB root that comes with rooting the phone.

Everything else related to ADB works fine, just not DDMS in eclipse. Development pays my mortgage, so this is kind of a big deal. Can anyone chime in on the problem, or is anyone working on a fix?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yareally:
Probably an eclipse issue though can't say for sure without serious debugging.

If you're trying to just build applications and test them, you could try http://www.jetbrains.com/idea/ instead. It's what I use. The community version is free and supports android.

[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yareally:
do you have usb debugging turned on (on the phone) or tried wireless adb? if so, i have no idea what else it could be.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erishasnobattery:
Yeah... I'm set up correctly. Not my first rodeo. :)
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erishasnobattery:
Just wanted to let folks know, in case you're having similar issues, I managed to get this resolved.

Apparently it's an issue on the the other Desire HD phones as well (Desire HD and Inspire 4G). The Windows version of ADB can only handle 64 simultaneous processes. These phones apparently run a lot more than that. I don't know why, but they do.

In any case, if you use a process manager like Astro or something and "kill" all active tasks before loading up Eclipse/DDMS it will connect fine. Eventually, mine did load back up and crash DDMS, but unplugging the USB, killing active tasks again and then hooking it back up got me going again.

Hopefully this helps someone out!
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] icyh3ll:
This process does work for some cases, not for all. I originally had Das BAMF 1.6 regular when I encountered the same problem and was told to flash by another user. I ignored this because I had flashed even a different version to try to fix the problem already (Remix 1.7). So I tried Liquid Thundersense and THE QUOTED METHOD worked as a remedy.

The difference is the readout that Eclipse is giving you. If it reads Target: Unknown, Debug: Blank, State: Offline. You will most likely need to flash. The problem is I can't tell you for certain whether flashing over to liquid was what fixed it. I've gone back and flashed BAMF Remix 1.7 back on and it works fine now. I can't duplicate it. Either way, just try flashing and using Advanced Task Killer till it works. It could take SEVERAL flashes to fix the problem. :mad:

I am still having these problems today, even after killing tasks. I can get it to work maybe 1/20 times, and it is really annoying. Using a friends EVO does not have this problem.

Does anyone know if they are working on a new version of ADB? This seems like a terrible oversight on their part. Why limit it to 64 processes?
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] icyh3ll:
Possible solutions

I have no clue about ADB getting an update but Flashing whatever rom you are currently running can fix some of the issues along with just simply rebooting your phone. I had to reflash more than once to get my Tbolt to work.

Another reason why yours may not be working is the security level of your task killing process.

If you are using Advanced task killer go to Menu -> Settings -> Security Level (at the bottom) -> Set to LOW

Then simply kill EVERYTHING, spare nothing while trying to get ADB to work.

Hope this helps
