[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] SellswordShev:
Alright, I'm almost 99% sure this problem is gone after I switched to the official CWM. I've tried everything from restoring nandroids to flashing TWiz / AOSP 4.2 and 4.3 ROMs, everything boots and reboots and /data is no longer getting corrupt. I also loki patched the official CWM touch recovery (the one on their site is not patched), and flashed + used it successfully. Its pretty simple to do this, just follow the guide here: https://github.com/djrbliss/loki and use this recovery: http://download2.clockworkmod.com/recoveries/recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.3.2-jfltevzw.img
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] what be up:
The only issue I've been having is that when I reboot to recovery, it sometimes gets stuck and I have to do a battery pull and go back into recovery.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] GraffitiKnight:
I'm having the same issue on TWRP 2.6. Tried with multiple ROMs. Everytime I reboot I have to format /Data. So frustrating. I will try CWM now.

[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] bobster:
Hi, just before I launch into my first post, just like to say this forum has been an amazing source of info, I'm a new MDA compact owner and have already unlocked it, upgraded to the 1.12 ROM and applied the bigstorage patch, wow, it was actually quite easy.

My question relates to MMS functions and since upgrading and modding, I am unable to send or receive MMS on my compact. I have installed the Orange conract CAB files and I can browse the internet etc, just when I receive an MMS I get the text message telling me to go to the website and view it.

Anyone any ideas ?

Hi, Do you have a SPV M500 ? Can you tell me how you did to update it with rom Qtek or Imate ? Please... :oops:
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] ratcom:
give orange cs a ring, your mms is not enabled on your account, i bet its a new contract/sim yep??
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] bobster:
Nope, its not a new SIM/Account, it works perfectly in another handset such as a K750i or Nokia 6680.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] bobster:
Its not an M500, its an MDA compact, we dont have the M500 in the UK yet. I wouldnt mind a copy of your M500 ROM though :-)

It was pretty easy, downloaded the Qtek 1.12 rom, installed it on my laptop and it extracted itself into a temporary directory. I couldnt install straight away due to the country error so I copied the file MaUpgradeUt_noID.exe into the directory where the files were and ran that. About 20 mins later I had a brand new 1.12 rom installed with the new ROM and new RADIO etc.

I backed up the ROM using the romupdate.exe tool to my 256MB SD card, read it from the card using ntrw.exe , used hexeditor to change the appropriate strings and re-wrote it back to the card using ntrw.

Hard reset with the card installed , two mins later it asked me to press power to flash and about 15 mins later job done

I had an MDA compact with the Qtek 1.12 rom and radio and the big storage hack. I then picked what I wanted to install from the original t-mobile extended rom and job done, all done in less than an hour.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] bobster:
Fixed it, had to install the mms application from the extended ROM , works ok now.
[JAM, MDA Compact, S100 Software Upgrading] bobster:
If anyone wants a copy of the patched ROM, let me know and I'll upload it onto my ftp.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] God-Man:
After researching this for hours on Google and YouTube, I can only find spotty information about whether or not a Sprint Galaxy S3 can be unlocked for use with T-Mobile. (Certainly no tutorials.) Does anyone know?

My 2 main questions are:

1 -- They say you can unlock a Sprint S3 for any CDMA carrier, but how do you get your SIM information onto the phone, seeing as there's no SIM card slot?

2 -- The phone supports Sprint's LTE. Will T-Mobile's LTE work?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Higgs_Boson:
You've nearly answered your own question.

CDMA is technology used by Sprint and Verizon, which does not involve a SIM card.

GSM is the technology, used by T-Mobile and AT&T, that employs SIM cards.

CDMA phones will not work on GSM networks.

[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] qapl:
DEVICE : SAMSUNG GALAXY FIT GT S5670

CURRENT ROM : GB 2.3.6 STOCK

I rooted my device a long time ago..but flashed the recovery few days ago only.

So here's what happened?

i flashed "AMON-RA RECOVERY"..then found it to be old.

then tried to flash the "TJ-STYLE RECOVERY" ...BUT SOMEHOW IT DIDN'T WORKED and ODIN was taking very much time.

so aborted and then flashed "PRATYUSH.CREED 'S RECOVERY"... as mentioned in the guide in the forum that this could backup the STOCK ROM.

THEN as mentioned in the guide i took a NANDROID BACKUP of the stock rom ...(didn't knew the backup was successful or not)..

after creating the backup

i tried to flash OFFICIAL CYNOGEN MOD 7.2.0 NIGHTLY.ZIP

but the process ended very quickly notifying of successfull flashing...

instead when i rebooted after showing the sumsung animation the

Device got hungup at a black screen with android written on it at a little right

.

then i tried to restore the NANDROID BACKUP...but the

recovery showed MD5 ERROR

..

I thought may be a unlocked BOOTLOADER is required ..i googled it but couldn't find the procedure...

i then downloaded and flashed a

STOCK_GB_2.3.6.tar.md5

rom..

this worked

BUT REPLACED THE CLOCKWORKMOD RECOVERY WITH STOCK RECOVERY

.

.

.

NOW THE QUESTIONS :​

:confused:

1.

why wasn't the NANDROID BACKUP successful ?​

2.

why didn't the OFFICIAL CYNOGEN MOD 7.2.0 worked ?​

3.

how can i unlock the BOOT LOADER if it is required for the CUSTOM ROMS ?​

4.

why the

CUSTOM CLOCKWORK MOD got replaced by the STOCK RECOVERY

on reflashing with stock rom ?​

help me ...:confused:

AWAITING REPLIES.:fingers-crossed:
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] Anubhav Agrawal:
Hy there

i m a complete noob, but i will try to help u as much as possible ...

i think,there was a prob with flashing of custom recovery,

i m also on custom recovery (dunno which one) i flashed it as flashable zip frm recovery {i think i installed tj style fr odin then flashed the present recovery }

Also, wen u flash stock rom, u need to root it again ..

nondroid problem? mayb due to recovery problem ..

bootloader thing? sorry i dont knw anything bootloader thing ...

If i were u, i will first install tj style recovery from odin(it roots ur phone too, so no need to root it first) then either use it(its said to b most stable recovery around) or flash another recovery as flashable zip frm the present recovery ...

(i will avoid using odin fr each nd every thing ...)

Hope this helps ^^
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] qapl:
hi..

thanks for the reply ...

i

didn't knew flashing custom recovery

ROOTS THE DEVICE , so if this actually happens

thanks

for letting me know. ..:good:

and for the recovery i did that already...

so if anyone WILLING TO CLEAR THE DOUBTS..

YOU ARE WELCOME​
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] qapl:
how..?

HOW WOULD I DO THAT..?

means the tj-style recovery i have is in TAR format...

should i

UN

compress

and recompress it in ZIP format... ?

AND WHAT POSSIBLE DISADVANTAGES COULD BE FOR THE ODIN ?
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] swat4samp:
1) Nandroid Backup works only for custom roms. For stock roms u can only take a backup but u cant restore (there's a recovery by pratyush.creed which does restore too but i didn't try so can't say)

2)Perhaps u didn't flash properly so it went into bootloop. Use CWM by TJ-style only and next time, wipe data, cache and dalvik cache and format /system just as a precautionary step before flashing custom rom.

3)Samsung Phones doesn't have locked bootloaders. So to flash a rom, u can do it easily :)

4) The stock rom u flash via ODIN contains stock recovery as well.

U cant flash recovery unless u have other custom recovery (well there is a flashable zip for CWM by tjstyle but i dont know whether it can be flashed via stock recovery). The only way u can do is through ODIN. Make sure ODIN is set properly and if u have windows 7, run it as administrator and better reinstall drivers.
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] Anubhav Agrawal:
..

Let me reclarify - u will hv to install tj style via odin, then avoid odin as much as possible ...

Swat4samp clarrified all other things in the previous reply ..
[Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670] qapl:
got the most of it..

for the 1st point ..i used the PRATYUSH.CREED recovery already..but the backup restore didn't work for me..as i've also written in the 1st post

as for the 2nd point ...i'll try to do it again correctly and as mentioned by you

FOR THE 3rd AND 4 th POINT :good:

I am sure that most people have their ritual of how they Factory reset, Wipe, or delete everything on their computer. Well I want to do that but my method is pretty straight forward. write down the progs i want, save the pics/music i want and wipe! However there has got to be a better way than re-downloading all i need, but i just dont know. Usually i am stuck wiping when the computer crashes or something. :eek:

My laptop hp dv6 (not great, but not bad) is getting slow. Ex, at LEAST 4 minutes boot time. 3+ of that is after the windows logo. I generally try to keep things clean on my laptop but i have been running this thing for a few years now and I want to wipe it before school starts so i dont get stuck mid-semester with errors. That would be bad. I do have restore disks i made and I dont thing i have any viruses, just a heck of alot of clutter.

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Thanks for reading! :cyclops:

It depends how much time you want to spend wiping your computer, if you want wipe it fast use a BFG. If you are willing to spend a long time zero fill the hdd.

Zero fill, I am not really worried about people finding stuff on my computer, I just want to give it a good reset back to factory so it will hopefully run faster. Anyway, will zero fill help with hard drive health?

Hello XDA Community,

i recently flashed a new rom to my mobile and wanted to restore my apps as

usual containing whatsapp as well. Everthing went well except whatsapp. I

tried to restore whatsapp with Titanium Backup, MayBackUp Pro and the

build-in restore function of whatsapp of course too. I tried every possible

copy and paste solution i could find on the internet but nothing helped.

The result was always the same the only thing which was restored were the

group chat names nothing else all my chats are gone.

I tried all suggestions from this Post http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1268031 but nothing helped.

I switched from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1151765 to http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2031467.

Please help me to find a solution. Thank You
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eddiehk6:
Do you have the following folder on your sd card?

sdcard/WhatsApp/Databases

The chat backups should be stored in there. I've successfully uninstalled and reinstalled the app, and restored all the chats successfully before.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MNubbi:
Yes i have the folder there otherwise i weren't able to use the restore function of whatsapp.

I reinstalled it dozen times but always the same result. Groupchat names visible but empty and all single chats are gone.

Thank u for ur reply
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eddiehk6:
Check the files within that folder, open them up within a text editor or something, just to check they're not corrupted.

Instead of restoring app+data from Titanium Backup, clear app data then uninstall WhatsApp. Then try installing the app fresh from the Play Store first.

Open it and set it up fresh, hopefully will ask to restore the conversations by itself. Afterwards, restore data only with Titanium.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MNubbi:
I tried what u suggested but it didnt work. I installed WA fresh from the Market set it up and after that i restored the data with titanium backup. When i start WA after this procedure WA told me the Database is corrupted and asked me if i want restore from sd-card but it doesnt matter if i press yes or no the result ist still the same. WA Groupchats restored but empty and single chats missing.

Thank u for ur reply
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eddiehk6:
Hmm if it's telling you it may be corrupted, then unfortunately the database may be corrupted.

In the Databases folder, can you rename the msgstore.db.crypt file to something else, then rename another slightly older database msgstore.db.crypt-2013-08-XX to msgstore.db.crypt. Then uninstall and reinstall from Play Store again?

I'm hoping it's just the latest file which is corrupted, and the others backups are ok. You may not get all the messages back, you might lose a day's worth of messages if this works. Sorry if you've already tried this too, running out of ideas :(
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MNubbi:
Yes i tried this too. So i wanted to prove if the Backups are really corrupted. I installed another ROM (euroskank) and installed whatsapp through the playstore and restored all messages during the validating process. Viola 27.000 messages restored. So now i have absolutly no idea what i can do to solve it and restore it on the ROM i want.

Anyway Thanks for ur help
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eddiehk6:
Hah you wouldn't believe me, that was going to be my next suggestion, restore an old nandroid or new ROM to see if it works. I didn't think it would work because it still has to refer to the files on the SD card, independent of ROM. Glad it's definitely not corrupted though :)

So once it's installed and working on euroskank, make another manual backup.

Then try Mildwild again, install WhatsApp from scratch, it really should work, finger's crossed!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MNubbi:
So finally i could test it. AND it didn't work. Still the same problem. Thats insane. I tried even a previous version of the rom to test if it's caused by the latest one but no got the same result.

Thank u for ur help i appreciate it.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eddiehk6:
That is insane, that it works with one rom and not the other. Try asking in the ROM thread to see if anyone else has WhatsApp issues?

I'm out of ideas, sorry, hope you get it sorted somehow!
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MNubbi:
I already did and unfortunately i got no reply till now and nobody got the same problem before. So i am the Columbus here in a bad way. I messaged the developer on xda and Facebook today, i hope he will reply.

Nevermind i thank u alot for trying to help me. You were the only one who at least tried it. :)
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nicadini:
The solution that worked for me...

Hi I was having the same problem as you and also couldn't find anyone who had the same issue. Anyway I was moving from a gingerbread phone to a jellybean phone. So I used a backup app called Super Backup. I tried numerous things that didn't work. This is what I did that did work.

Also backup up your backup before you start.

1. On new phone uninstall whatsapp, then delete the whatsapp folder on the internal storage.

2. Restore whatsapp from backup app.

3. Before you run whatsapp delete the whatsapp folder on the internal storage again.

4. Copy the whatsapp folder from the sd card to the internal storage.

5. Run whatsapp.

Let me know of this works for you. It did for me.

Thanks.

Hi, i have the same problem when doing the same trasition from gingerbread and runnymedemod007 transition to the MildWil 14 AOPK version,

Whatsapp finds my backup and askes for restoring, but after resoring there are no messages.

when i install the old Sense rom again i can do a restor and all messages are there...

Did you ever find out how to mak it work?

thx.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MNubbi:
Unfortunately i didn't solve it. I settled without restoring the messages. You can try what Nicadini suggested.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waterfleske:
Tried everything in the thread here and even restoring complete backups of the previous ROM (what works when trying to use whatsapp on a WIFI only tablet) but that doesn't even work.

I think it has something to do with the encryption in the ROM i guess or the way it stores the Phone number, as Whatsapp only wants to restore a message database for the same Phone number...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MNubbi:
That can't be the case. If I remember right my phone number was the same as the stored number in wa that day. But if its a crypting problem of the rom u better contact the autor of it. Sry that i cant do more to help you. It got out of my hands.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waterfleske:
I think it has to be something like that, because just as you i have made the same transition from gingerbread to MILDWILD 14 Rom, and the problem only seems to be with the WILDWILD Rom.

any other rom that i have tested, the internal restor of whatsapp works like a charm.

So the only thing that can cause the problem is the framework/UI from the Mildwild roms.

I've written to the Dev.from WILDWILD to ask assistence, but so far no reaction.

Tonight i'm going to test a few other MILDWILD Roms to see if the problem is with all the MW roms or only with the 14
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waterfleske:
UPDATE:

I tried all the other WildWild MOD Roms yesterday and the problem only seems to be with the MW-14 Rom.

With all other Roms the WhatsApp restor works perfectly.

So for now i'm going to stay with the MW CM-8 version and try to Mod that myself a bit.

Seems to be very stable and fast, Also more options in the Camera Settings and i like the ICS look.

Only downside are the quicksettings (i like them more from MW14 or Sense)

is it true that partitioning sd card results in its damage

[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Viper The Ripper:
Yes, this is due to increased cycle read/write to that your card suffer...

If you use a partition of your sdcard as internal memory, the damage will be less than if you use it as a swap partition, because your swap partition will be used as something like "ram" memory, but of course IT IS NOT AS FAST AS RAM MEMORY! :D so what is better a small increase in performance or a sdcard 100% serviciable and durable¿?

YOU CHOOSE! ;)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] I r o n M a n:
It does reduce the life of your SD card.

If you think the increased memory is worth it, go for it.
