[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhishekmalyala:
Hi all,

I have rooted my wildfire recently, and flashed CM7 a month ago.

However, I restored it back to froyo as I found the camera app in CM7 very ineffective.

I use the camera a lot, so had to revert back to Froyo today.

Now I have been recieving weird sms messages that give me an option to save or cancel.

Please see the pictures attached.

Is is due to some app i might have installed and the permissions i gave it?

The sms messages are very frequent and pretty distressing as they disrupt my music too

Kindly help.

Regards,

Abhay
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wasimk32:
could you be more specific ?

which rom you flashed or did you go complete stock ?
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhishekmalyala:
I rooted my phone by unlocking the bootloader from htcdev, downgraded the hboot version using "gold card " method, Used revolutionary to S-off and unrevoked to root.

I then made a back up of my froyo rom from backup options in the revolutionary recovery.

I flashed CM7.2 from the official CM website.

I neede the camera badly, so I had to go back to recovery and restored my froyo through recovery.

(I did wipe data, davlik cache etc according to the procedures mentioned on Xda )

Have you installed any apps from outside the play store recently? This is very strange. What number, if any is it being sent from?
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wasimk32:
Looks like your cellphone operator is sending you apn settings in the format which the phone cant read it.Which operator are you using ? BSNL ?
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gobz:
Three possibilities:

1. Service messages, stop them by DND

2. Some friend is sending u a flash message, try this from a nokia handset.

3. (Just kidding) You are using sms faker..;)
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wasimk32:
we can send flash messages from our phone too! :P
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gobz:
How?

Never seen a function..
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhishekmalyala:
Yes bsnl... But the messages are incessent... I've recieved close to 100 messages since last night, though i save them, they appear in the sms folder as seen in the second picture. And then a fresh batch of sms are recieved again.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhishekmalyala:
I am on DND. so, can't be service messages.

Don't have an idea about flash messages, but these are not like routine sms.

routine sms doesn't prompt me to save or cancel as in the first picture..
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhishekmalyala:
Let's assume that what i am recieving are flash messages.... is there a way to disable them?
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wasimk32:
I dont think so,I think bsnl has been sending you apn settings, and trust me they have worst phone database. May be customer care people could explain better?
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhishekmalyala:
Done that as soon as you suggested the idea. i already have settings for gprs, and the customer care has denied having sent anything.

I plan to back up some apps with titanium, then do a factory reset and see if that works.

One important doubt though: Is it ok if i do a factory reset from settings, rather than from recovery?
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gobz:
Its the same.

Let me tell you, I dont think reseting will solve ur prob. It might be some app, maybe something like fb try to remember where u gave ur no. and when did this start.

Uninstall some suspicious apps that arent much popular in market..
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heavy_metal_man:
If a factory reset does fix this then it will have most likely have been a rouge app. But if it is a network text, they wouldn't know as it would most likely be a automated service.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Will_Xda:
Most likely as said above its app you installed, but if you find out what caused it for definite let me know because I had a similar issue when I first got wildfire
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erdal67:
Try antivirus:rolleyes:
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Will_Xda:
Antivirus doesn't really seem to do much for this (fixed my issue like this ages ago) all it ever seemed to do is give false positives and sap battery life
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhishekmalyala:
Anti virus is totally ineffective and zaps off the battery too fast...
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhishekmalyala:
tried that... uninstalled EStaskmanager as i noticed in "running applications" the estaskmanager update process started after the seconds after i recieved a new sms.

But it didn't work out.

Just uninstalled titanium backup... no sms since past two hours...

let me see if it works :)

[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhishekmalyala:
No use... the messages are back again :(

Gotta flash my phone with a factory reset and try...

These are the processes i saw on my phone's battery usage screen... DOES ANYONE OF THEM LOOK SUSPICIOUS???

anything ring a bell??
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cybertyk:
I just noticed this thread and it caught my attention, best thing to try (even though I have not had a HTC for a while) is try a ruu method at reinstalling the stock is and see if that fixes the issue.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Will_Xda:
Could be that you have messages saved to external memory or sim card and its the same message trying to restore itself over and over ?
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhishekmalyala:
Flashed factory reset on my phone... still no relief :(

I will try the RUU in the next two days if nothing works....
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhishekmalyala:
I do remember using an app called "sms backup and restore" to create a back up of my messages before i rooted my phone.

I flashed my phone with CM7 and didn't bother about the app anymore.

I have done a factory reset , so as of now , i don't have file explorer. I will install one tonight after work and try to format my ext SD card too.
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Will_Xda:
Hmm strange maybe a native app in cm trying to restore them :confused: try deleting the massages from sd first see if it helps anf is it the same on every Rom ?
[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] abhishekmalyala:
I have faced this problem only after i restored froyo.... I'll try flashing back to CM7 and see if the problem still exists...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RSprockett:
Hello, have searched for this but found nothing in the S2 forum itself, essentially have rooted my phone (s2 I9100) onto the Siyah 5.0.1 kernal, would essentially like to run JB (4.2.2 or closest) on my phone

Is there an image of the stock android for jelly bean that I can upgrade my phone too? can't find a download link anywhere so don't want to brick my phone with a suspect site, figured it is safer to ask first.

I would assume if it exists i can use Odin to just flash the phone to that stock JB image and that is that? or is there anything else to it

Thanks :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] immortalneo:
Flash official stock JB 4.1.2 using Odin. Thats that.

You can find links for official firmware on sammobile.com.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RSprockett:
upgrade

Okay, one more silly question (apologies in advance), the stock android on my phone is 4.0.3, i'm on O2 and in the united kingdom

Since united kingdom is only listed once on sammobile with vodafone in the name, does this mean no no for me? or will the vodafone one still work by wizadry?

Cheers
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gaosphappy:
You need to find out if phone is network locked or not. If it is go to o2uk website search unlock code and fill in form. 24hrs later they will reply with sim unlock code. Unlock your phobe and flash nordic 4.1.2 (nee) im o2uk using it and it works great. Make sure you learn how to flash b4 you try it. Good luck you have plenty of reading to do :)

Awesome game but it take so long just wondering if there's any hacks out there I been on it for a week already and I haven't got nowhere appreciate the help guys

Great game. Good find bro add me, roundtableprez
[One (M7) General] gsusx:
Well I bought sim free, it arrived, I had a couple of days with it and now i'm sending it back.

Why I hear you all cry ..... well quite simply because the phone is that good I'm going to commit to a 2 year contract with it. Not sure just who to go with yet, so anyone with any suggestions that would be great (I live essex/herts way and work in london, am currently on t-mobile, who have improved quite a bit last few months)

I really like it, I really do, have one or two little annoyances, but generally I can't remember the last time I enjoyed a phone that much (maybe iphone 4)

So yeah, i'ts going back but i'm gonna commit (and for someone like me who changed phones and find fault with phones all the time thats quite a big thing !!!)
[One (M7) General] h.han:
I upgraded to the Orange panther 41 contract through p4u, 18 month, 600 mins, unlimited text, 1gb data, HTC One silver free with flip cover.

The best bits are, p4u gives 5 pounds discount on the tarrif so 36 per month, then they give 144 pounds cash back (directly wire to my bank 42 days after activation) so effectively I am paying 28 pounds for 18 month!

Good deal you think?

The reason I could get that was because dialaphone was doing a new contract deal, essentially the same as mine but with 4 redemptions each 36 pounds.

And I mentioned that to p4u so they matched the price.

Just checked dialaphone, they don't do this deal anymore but panther 36 with means only 400 mins and 750mb data. Same price with 4 redemption.
[One (M7) General] djbenny1:
almost the same as me, except i got mine from dialaphone - though my cashback is in installments instead of in one lump sum - dialaphone did offer me a lump sum, but it wasnt as much as im getting now - now i will get £144, they offered me £100 in a lump sum.

i might call up and ask them to switch me to the lump sum - i will probably forget all about the bill sending in thing!

also, did you use a cashback site?

with quidco or topcashback you can/could get an extra £70 cashback

edit. regarding who to go for - yea the deal h.han and I got is the cheapest of all I think, depends whether what is included fits your needs and whether orange/tmobile/ee are good in your area.
[One (M7) General] gsusx:
Sounds a fantastic deal but i had such **** with orange a year or two back i vowed never to go back to them, now they and t-mobile have merged it might not matter that much .... if anyone see's any other good deals i'd appreciate it !!! thanks to you guys for posting this up
[One (M7) General] KING LUFF:
P4U are usually the best however i went direct through Vodafone this time and i got;

Free Phone

Free Flip Cover

£37 per month with Unlimited Calls, Text and 1GB data (unlimited for 3 months) on a 24 month contract.

Also got the phone within 2 business days of ordering
[One (M7) General] djbenny1:
your t-mobile has gotten better recently because they now share networks with orange and also EE ;)

i would also say don't let a free flip case from any company sway you - its crap lol
[One (M7) General] h.han:
I did not go through cashback site cos I was looking for upgrade.

I did ordered a new contract at that time on dialaphone through quidco initially, but it was a mistake, I thought I could port my existing Orange number to the new Orange contract, but that's not possible so I cancelled that. And accidentally had a chat with p4u so they offered me the same deal as dialaphone but upgrade, too good to miss so I took it.

No cashback from quidco though, but I am happy.

---------- Post added at 05:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:35 PM ----------

I don't have good experience with Orange either, their 3G is the slowest amongst all the operators because they didn't buy the best 3G frequency, and I had to upgrade 4 times since last Friday through p4u and make tons of call to Orange to remove a stupid flag in their system to get my 4th upgrade attempt approved.

But their price is the cheapest through p4u so I just took it.

Oh, by the way, the 4G from EE definitely is the fastest in all operators since the frequency band is very good.
[One (M7) General] gsusx:
here's a question

like ee say you have 1gb of 4g data per month

what happens if you go over that, does 3g signal count towards that etc ???

im even contemplating going 4g ... i would go with 3 but i cant get signal in my spare room and thats where i tend to spend a lot of my time working of weekends

:(
[One (M7) General] djbenny1:
dont you have wifi at home?

i am assuming that by paying EE for 4g, you are simply paying for "access" to their 4g network - your 1gb will be depleted whether or not you use the 4g or not.
[One (M7) General] h.han:
And to add to that, maybe I am misleading here, my contract is with Orange, the 3G brand of EE, so I do not have any 4G service in my tarrif, only 3G.

If you want to sign a 4G deal with EE, the price will be much higher.

With 4G service, it only means the option of connecting to 4G is there, but whether you will get 4G in your area or not, is irrelevant and those 1gb usage includes all traffic on 4G, 3G and GPRS.

If you go over, you will need to pay extra to get additional data.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Accessories] 2GMario:
first... great site. iv learned alot since finding it a week ago

question / idea...

iv seen the pin outs of the connector on the bottom

and i know theres keyboards out there

has anyone considered making a cable to connect a regular PS/2 keyboard to the phone ?

oviously it wouldnt be to practical to carry a full size keyboard with you, but it would be cool at home to enter in phone #s and such, and also theres the new rubber rollup keyboard out now (for some time now)... if u carry a laptop bag, u can throw that in to with u

i may attempt to see if it can be done myself, i have some electrical experience, but maybe someone might be able to find a solution faster / if theres a need

great site.

Hello XDA members,

I am using Omega v19.2 ROM and I love it, but there is one thing that won't let me sleep. I am used to Stock Battery (green battery without any percentages), but Omega is using mod called "Battery % mod".

Hi guys. Write you from Italy.

Here's a big discussion about Xperia Z displays (JDC/Sharp) on major mobile forums, and users who got jdc displays are really disappointed and returning/selling away their phones due to the poor black level, and the mediocre view angle.

I'm interesting now, are just you sure that also ZL will mount different jdc/sharp displays or is it just a (plausible) supposition? :mad:

I don't have root and i get the same result (u posted earlier) with XperiaZdisplay app (i.e Panel ID 1262-4791 & manufacturer = unknown). Now, that you've found yours to be sharp panel, would it be right to assume mine to be sharp as well (as it has same panel ID as yours)?

Does anyone here with ZL, having sharp panel (confirmed by root) have Panel ID other than mentioned above? Thanks in advance.

Btw, i've compared my ZL to my older Xperia S, many demo XZs (& one owned by a friend) and found the display to be better with regards to viewing angles & colour vibrance/contrast (not by much to friend's Z though).
[Sony Xperia ZL] Dpk1:
Guys I rooted my ZL today just for this. Still no luck with terminal emulator. It gives me the error "dmesglgrep not found" (screenshot attached). Can anyone point out what am I doing wrong? Tried it several times after reboot, but to no use. I am on rooted stock .434 (locked BL).

Edit: Found out, mine too is a sharp panel (same as posted by Androxyde). Was typing the command wrong. Thanks @ kicoi!

As I saw ur screenshot attachment, u mistyped "dmesglgrep", the correct is symbol "|" not "l" letter. give a try again!
[Sony Xperia ZL] tenshi888:
Strange, I have root and I rebooted twice and even re installed the app: "Device manufacturer unknown" I do get the same numbers as the one who previously posted theirs was Sharp (1262-4791). I have to say, my display is extremely bright-- it can be too bright, but even when turned down, things tend to look a bit overexposed or washed out. Was comparing it to a XZ with a JDC display, we agreed that one looked better with better viewing angles. The posted settings for White Balance of Saturation 10 and Hue of 220 does help quite a bit.
[Sony Xperia ZL] Dpk1:
That app doesn't work on ZL, as far as I know. Try the app terminal emulator (from play store) & type the commands as stated in the OP. I think you might as well be having a sharp panel (coz u have same panel id as mine).

Regarding viewing angles & contrast I'm certain that its better (at least on my ZL screen) compared to 3 demo Z screens (with max brightness, BE on & adapt to light settings unchecked ). It was however somewhat similar (only bit brighter) to a friend's Z. No idea about what panel make those Z screens had though.
[Sony Xperia ZL] molo_Ono:
The more relevant questions is, does it make a difference?

I'm not that knowledgeable on the topic, but I would assume the difference is negligible.
[Sony Xperia ZL] Krashtan:
Terminal emulator worked for me after reboot. And my screen is also from Sharp. And as someone says about the wash out screen I don't have that feeling , compare to my old desire z screen this one have better brightness and saturation.
