Are you sure you did everything correct?

What file type was your boot animation that you downloaded and what method did you use to install it?

Try booting to recovery and wiping cache and dalvik(don't factory reset) just in case something is still hanging around causing problems.

Contacts disappearing from phonebook

Hi,

I am from Pakistan, i recently bought an Android-1 phone running on 5.1.1., i was using a feature phone before & all my contacts were saved on both my Sims, i imported all my 346 contacts to the phone, but the problem is when i call any number it disappears from the phone contacts, after couple of days there were only 192 left, i imported all my numbers again from Sims to phone & merged them with duplicates but same thing happens again and again, even they keep disappearing from my Gmail contacts.

I am very disappointed with this situation & i will really appreciate any help.

Thanks.

Just wanted to update that it did in fact work!

I tried to use that file you recommended that I saw in a thread, but it just made my speaker make popping noises when playing audio at full volume. Didn't like that, so just reset it back to normal. Audio sounds good so far.

Appreciate the help!

Hello Community,

I was browsing XDA earlier today on my phone and I found some very interesting threads.

Not knowing a better way to save them for later, I simply pressed thanks at the specific threads.

Is there any way to see which threads I thanked or recently browsed?

Thanks in advance, every answer is appreciated.

Edit: I know I can subscribe threads, but those were single posts
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
If you only want to be able to keep certain posts then try taking a screenshot of the posts you want, then when you need to refer back to them just view the pic and you can read the post without using any mobile data. Or you can select the post like you're going to quote it then copy the post then go to file manager and create a new text file, edit the text file and paste the copied post content in the text file and save it. Or you can view the thread in browser and go to the page that has the post you want then bookmark that page and you can come right back to that page whenever you want.

I know this is nothing related to the above quote. But could please read my post about the p5100 stuck on boot animation .

I already downloaded the stock firmware and already extracted it and I got tar.md5 and this is to be flashed using odin as PDA. I downloaded the second file which is the kernel and I got Disc Image File , where do I flash this via CWM or ODIN ? again I'm so sorry
[General Questions and Answers] tetakpatak:
Mate, don't panic, it sounds good so far. Did you forget to make factory reset? Yes, any stock rom should work. Some Odin versions don't recognize files ending with md5, if so just rename them erasing .md5 so the last letters are "tar"

Did you try to flash some custom kernel? Maybe it isn't compatible with your ROM so it doesn't boot. Did you try without that kernel?

If still no success, this is the way that works for most of Samsung devices:

- download PIT file for the p5100, find stock ROM for p5100 (sometimes after extractingthen consist 3 files, for PDA, Modem and CSC) so Odin will by default check re-partition (as soon as you chose PIT file,which will make again proper re-partition), auto-boot and reset time will also be checked by default. Leave it that way in Odin, don't change anything. Then start your p5100 in recovery mode, make full wipe/factory reset, wipe both cache and dalvik. Then make sure Kies process is dead (kill it in Task manager) turn your p5100 in download mode, connect via USB with your PC. Now Odin must recognize your device: ID:COM should display in yellow color port number / in the left bottom field it should display <Added!>

If it isn't there, interrupt here and check your USB cable or re-install Samsung mobile driver. If it is there, click "Start" button and take your beer until Odin finishes the work. After that, it will auto-reboot and you will have unrooted stock p5100 :)

Removing bloatware after root

So I finally rooted my device as I am running out of space and wanted to delete some bloatware.

After rooting the phone I used Solid Explorer to go in to the System folder. In the system folder I marked the apps that I wanted to remove and chose to cut and paste them to the SD card (for backup reasons), The "backup folder" on my sdcard now is a little over 60 mb but nowhere near as much space as that has been freed on my phone memory (the ammount of free memory has increased with about 10 mb).

Now I'm wondering what happened to the remaining 50 mb? Did I go at it wrong when I moved the apk's to the SD card? Should I try and uninstall them somehow, could not find an option for that in Solid Explorer? Is Solid Explorer unable to complete the task, should I try something different such as Root Explorer? Were the apk's stored on the SD card to begin with and only hidden? Etc.

I tried rebooting my phone which is an Xperia Arc.

Someone help this noob out! :fingers-crossed:
[General Questions and Answers] tetakpatak:
Maybe you don't have to do it, if your Odin recognizes the md5 files. If I remember well, I think that the versions 3.x can recognize md5 anyway and you probably need Odin 3.04 or so for your Tab.

Look I've just sent few days ago to one guy step by step how to solve it with his GT-i9000:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=44799567#post44799567 (read one post before that)

So it is probably the same procedure, just find the files for your device, flashing the ROM made for other device can completetly brick your great Tab.

Just use Google, you will find it for sure, mate! Don't worry and don't panic. If you have both download mode and recovery mode, your Tab is OK you've just flashed something wrong so you spoiled its digestion :laugh: ....and we all did that at some point :D

Don't rush, let yourself bit time for that, keep cool head- it will work then! Sorry, I don't have PIT files for p5100 (I own p5110 but didn't screw it yet so much that I would need it- but I also already needed PIT file for all my other devices....)

ROMs not able to play video for Instagram?

I have an HTC HD2 and I've used 2 ROMs so far since Instagram updated its app to play & record videos. I've used the PACman 4.1 ROM and the NexusHD2 ROM and after updating/installing the app, I have no luck being able to watch videos posted on my feed. Auto-play or not, once it attempts to play the video, it stops and ends without even playing a single second. It's kind of frustrating and I'm not sure if I have time to run around and figure out if there is any way to make it play. I'm not sure whether I will need to try other ROMs or use alternative apps...I just hope there is some kind of solution. By the way, I haven't attempted to record a video of my own and post it afterwards, so I am not sure if I can do that either.

It does seem like a bug alright. When faced with a bug like this, follow these steps:

1. Search the ROM's thread to see if anyone else has reported this same issue.

2. Search XDA for similar bug reports.

3. Wait until you have permission to post in development threads, and post your bug report (with appropriate info like logcat etc).

4. If you think its really urgent, you can always PM the dev of that ROM (not advised for simple issues or user errors). And patiently wait for an answer. :good:

Dropped SMS Messages

I've been with T-Mobile for several years now, first with a Wal-Mart special Samsung (SGH-T679, Galaxy Exhibit II 4G) and a $30/month, no-contract data plan with unlimited text and data. Over the years I've discovered that many texts meant for me have failed to reach my phone. It's not the easiest thing to notice--typically, I have to miss an important message from someone who knows me well and expects me to respond. Less important messages that get lost go unnoticed, and casual acquaintainces simply assume I've decided to stop talking to them (this really sucks when you've just started dating someone).

I thought maybe the problem was caused by the ROMs I was using, so I played around with those for a while. Then I gave up and bought a cheap new phone maybe 6 months ago--a BLU Star 4.5--and kept the same $30 plan. If anything, my lost texts have increased in number.

Has anyone heard of this problem before? The main thing in common between these phones are T-Mobile and GSM. And maybe the fact that I don't pay an absurd monthly rate for my cell service.
