copy your backup to a hdd or something to keep it safe just-in-case ;)

i even got 3 instances of my backup. just to be sure as im always flashing. you never know, something might happen. :)
[HTC Sensation] Macklessdaddy:
all I need to copy is the backup from cwm correct?
[HTC Sensation] KAwAtA:
yep, and make sure you dont change the folder/file names or anything otherwise it'll affect the md5 check. There are ways to get around that... but don't make life harder!

Before you flash a ROM, try and find the RUU so should the worst happen you can always go back to stock.

---------- Post added at 01:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:00 PM ----------

I think we get the idea that YOU think CM7 is good. If it was THAT good everyone would be running it, no? ;)

Also, any chance you can change your font colour? It's a nightmare to read! :)
[HTC Sensation] Macklessdaddy:
I'm confused now,I thought the backup I made prior to rooting was stock,no?well what did I backup then?
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
You've backed up your ROM as it is NOW, an RUU can be used to go back to a 100%, out-the-box state. Always worth getting it in case your backup becomes corrupt.

What software version are you running on at the moment?
[HTC Sensation] Macklessdaddy:
I'm running ARHD 3.6.2
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
So you have no idea what software version you were on out the box?

Hi all,

Wondering where the SMS DB file is stored and how to access it.

Thanks
[HTC Desire S] blindndumb:
Try Backing up all SMS with any sms backup software, and then check its backup..

Not sure about where it is stored in ROM
[HTC Desire S] djsubtronic:
/data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/mmssms.db
[HTC Desire S] nnila:
Any particular way to access it?

Most my tools are showing the data folder as empty?
[HTC Desire S] djsubtronic:
You need to use a root file manager such as Root Explorer or Super Manager. I've never tried looking inside the SMS file but presume the database is stored in SQLite3 format.
[HTC Desire S] aktivitet:
When you got the file you can read it with this program:

I have found my slow to get increasingly slower and slower, I've removed tons of apps and all. Even overclocked the phone occassionally hangs on a black screen when I open texting and other apps, slow to close out of stuff. Is it possible when I SBFed it may have been corrupted? (dled on a bad connection). And could SBFing and factory resetting the phone fix the problem? Just wanna see if anyone else has had this problem besides me before i do the extreme since backing up apps takes a while on my phone.
[Bravo General] FanDroid09:
If you dont have a task killer i wuold try one, also try just rebooting your phone every once in a while, it can really help. If none of that is working then a factory reset should do the trick.

Ok, Ive rooted my device before, but for some reason it isn't working this time.

Just got a replacement Vibrant, upgraded to 2.2, and am trying to root it using superoneclick. Only problem is I get this:

Pushing rageagainstthecage...

cannot stat 'C:\Users\Holtmann\Downloads\SuperOneClickv1.5.5-ShortFuse\rageagainstthecage': No such file or directory

Huh? Did I do something wrong here? Any help would be appreciated.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N_B:
I never used super one click...but as those app things go, I think people are using AIO Vibrant Toolbox...but I've never used that either.

If it were me, and you can stop reading here if you want, I'd ODIN to JFD, flash the update.zip with CWM Recovery, and then just flash whatever ROM you want - if you are looking for a stock-looking 2.2, check out EDT's Project V - it's already rooted, and has all kinds of tweaks and whatnot.

Go to this thread, download the dialer shortcut .apk that's attached in the first post.

After you do that, install it using a file manager (Astro or ES).

Then just go back to your lockscreen personalization menu and add the phone shortcut. It will be there AFTER you download and install that .apk

You're welcome :D

[Captivate General] frenchman319:
I finally update my captivate with Gingerbread 2.3.5 two weeks ago. Its a very big change. For one thing my battery life is 10 fold longer. With Froyo stock 2.2 my battery life was 6 hours max. Now I unplug at 8AM and I'm good till 10PM.

I also go it rooted with one click odin. and now overclock my cpu to 1.2. Very stable for now.

My Quadrant Score:

Stock Froyo 2.2 = 1150

Overclock

1.052Ghz = 1354

1.1Ghz = 1441

1.52Ghz = 1532

1.2Ghz = 1763

I've read somewhere that you can overclock to 1.6. But i don't want to take any chance.

Hope the battery life stay the same

[Captivate General] neo_31591:
does overclocking to 1200 bring about a "noticeable" change?
[Captivate General] nok6100:
I have had the same issue. Guess its just the way GB is, would like to have phone calls use both left and right channels though like 2.2 did.
[Captivate General] mrhaley30705:
Does for me. But it might not for you. Each phone is different in regards to how they respond to OC/UV. Some can oc to 1600mhz and remain stable. Some can't get 1200 stable. Only way to know for sure is to try.

Are you sure the Factory stock Vibrant had an sms popup? I don't ever remember it having this.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sumpter32:
I use go sms but there is handcent also both are great
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joselamar:
I'm sure the Vibrant has a "factory" sms popup function. Before I rooted my phone, it had the ability to turn the screen on and show the sms envelope alerting me I have a text message or it would show the gmail envelope alerting me I have an email. Since I rooted my phone I have to use 'Glance' app which works pretty much like the factory one (YES, I know, but I want the factory one back). There has to be some file name I can find using 'Explorer' app but I can find it. By they way I've been looking into this on my wife's phone which has not been rooted. I know it's there. If I was able to copy the 'battery charging' sound from her phone to mine, I'm sure I can copy that sms popup file as well. Any clues anyone?

Thanks.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SamsungVibrant:
I don't understand why rooting your phone would cause you to lose a feature. It shouldn't and doesn't.

I'm a big fan of the stock Touchwiz, and I never remember any SMS popup.

Are you sure you have a USA T-Mobile Vibrant T959? I can't ever remember anything popping up saying you have an SMS. Are you talking about the notification bar? Or maybe NoLEd app found in the market?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kxlling:
That sounds like you're talking about the notification icon, it should be enabled by default but check the settings in your SMS app, there is an option to enable/disable it.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joselamar:
Ok guys, I guess I was not clear enough on what I was trying to explain. What I mean by sms popup is when you get a text message or email the phone screen turns on for about a minute or so and an icon displays on the top left of the notification bar. If anyone knows how to get this stock feature back on the phone please feel free to share that info. After rooting my phone with Axura ROM I lost that feature and the screen does not turn on anymore. I don't want any aftermarket apps I already have 'Glance' which works fine but once I get the stock one back I will get rid of 'Glance' app. Hope this clarifies confusions.

Thanks
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joselamar:
kxlling

I have the settings for sms set already to display notification in status bar but to no avail. Axura ROM took that out.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kxlling:
Have you tried replacing the SMS app with one from another ROM? Or just reinstalling it?

I've never had that issue, but I've never tried axura either...

This may be far fetched, but could the theme you're using be washing it out? I've had it happen before where the theme was the same colors and you couldn't see the notifications.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wkim02:
Sounds like you need the touchwiz mms.apk. The stock Android one doesn't support screen on function. You can pull the file from another ROM and push it through or search the apps section for non-blurry mms by explodingboy. He has the files for both 2.2 and 2.3 roms I believe.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joselamar:
I'm going to reinstall it and see how it goes. I'm not sure if Axura is washing out the app but I wouldn't doubt it. I'll let you know what happens.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joselamar:
I already have Glance. This app works just like the one that came with the phone before rooting. Check it out you might like it.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kaintfm:
See if you can find a compatible touchwiz app that works with Axura. Barring that, I suggest you either switch back to a Touchwiz enabled ROM, settle for a third party app solution, or try MIUI. MIUI does not have Touchwiz MMS, but it does have the feature of turning the screen on and/or giving notification updates and/or popup updates when you get texts.

Oh, and you can also theme the ever loving crap out of it. And it's generally wonderful.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mrrobc97:
You're talking about the so called "toast" notification icon on the status bar. Popup is when you get a message and the message itself pops up in a window over your home/lockscreen or whatever app you're running at that time. Anyways, seriously, I know you said you dont want a aftermarket app and I dont know about Glance or why you won't prefer it over your stock sms/mms app but you should consider installing Handcent SMS. Its very custumizable and has that real "popup" feature I was talking about earlier and its just plain way way better than the stock app and I see no reason whatsoever to not use it over your stock app and best of all its FREE!

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] antoinedl:
Hi,

As it is written in the thread title, I am the proud (and frustrated) owner of a an Xperia Arc on Rogers (Canada). I am frustrated because since the "classic" bootloader unlocking methods do not work with Rogers branded phone, I'm unable to use any flashing method that require fastboot.

Also, I've seen a bootloader unlocking method that involves removing the battery, attaching wires on contacts, ... And I do admit that this kind of stuff scares me a little bit.

I wanted to know if wether or not it was possible to use Clockworkmod recovery (or Rom Manager) with a rooted 2.3.2 version and "just" install CM7 that way ? I know it sounds a little naive, but I'm currently stuck trying to root (after a downgrade to 2.3.2) with Gingerbreak and it stalls and the phone ends up never rebooting.

So if anyone has a solution/idea on how to flash CM7 on my locked bootloader Arc, that would make me (and probably dozens of other Rogers Arc owners) sooooo happy.

Also, I just wanted to know if it was possible to flash CM7 with Flashtool ? Before having my Arc, I had an X10 and used flashtool about 15 times to flash MiUI Roms... If yes, would it be by "converting" the CM7 files into a .ftf file ?

Thank you very much
