[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeems:
Anyone using Nova? Having issues with it?

I installed Nova started setting it up, seemingly no issues adding widgets, moving icons, applying theme etc until I try to use the "Messaging" app (Not Message+). Nova says "App isn't installed". I have no issues getting to it via home launcher and the Messaging app works fine. Haven't had any other issues. I cleared app cache and data, tried uninstalling/reinstalling and even did a factory reset since I've had the thing less than 24 hours all to no avail. Any ideas? Anyone else seeing anything similar?

edit: fwiw, it's the Verizon version.

2nd edit: A temporary workaround - To anyone still having this issue I created a workaround using tasker. I just made a task that was "open messaging app" and placed a widget in nova. I set the icon to be the stock messaging app icon and I don't know any different.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joebrady119:
I had the same problem. I gave up and stuck with the stock Launcher. I even tried making an activity short cut in Nova and it still said app not installed.

VZW here too.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evanl27:
Same thing on my VZW G4 as well. I tried the Google Now Launcher and the messaging app loaded just fine. I switched back to stock though because the GNL icons were too big.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeems:
Very strange but glad to know I'm not alone. I'm using stock now as well, it's really not that bad, just not as customizable. Hopefully it's just a bug that's easily fixed.

I'm also having the same issue with third party launchers. I left a review on Nova. I don't like Verizon's messaging app. I prefer the stock SMS app.

Remove non-working messaging icon from desktop.

Drag the working messaging icon from the app drawer to the desktop.

Done :good:

Any word back, Valkyrie? I'm wondering if they'll just say it's a vzw/LG issue.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr_gibberish:
Having the same problem on Action Launcher and I think I know what it is related to. I had an LG G3 and used the LG Backup app to backup my old phone and restore it to the G4 when I got it last week. Action Launcher had a shortcut on the desktop and in the drawer to the stock Messaging App on the G3, and so when restored, it is looking for that file rather than the new Messaging app on the G4. Of course the stock LG launcher is all new for the G4 and so its shortcuts were not restored from my old backup and so they still work. In fact, if I install a new launcher I've never used it works fine (I just installed Go Launcher and it works) because I'm not restoring data. However, both launchers I previously had on my G3 (Action and Nova ) have this problem. I'd bet that everyone with this problem restored their phone or just their launcher from a backup somehow. I'd bet that if I could somehow remove and reinstall the stock messaging app it might work again, but how could you do that without root? Anyone more knowledgeable than me have a thought about that?
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeems:
No restore here. Brand new phone and clean installs from play store for the apps. I formatted the sd card so there isnt even any old data on there. I think it's something else. Someone else said they were able to get it to work with go launcher as well.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lazarus2297:
just to chime in i have the same problem, I got around to fully setting up my device and i use google messenger and it works fine, yet still the LG messaging app still doesn't work. Verizon version here as well.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dr_gibberish:
Well never-mind then. :)

Can you get it to work from the lock screen? My shortcut there works fine, but not from the launcher or app drawer.

What's so good about the default messaging app? I haven't used a default messaging app in years.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeems:
It's not Message+. I don't need anything crazy. I was using 8sms on my old phone, but don't think it's compatible yet. I would try out a different one but nothing has driven me to at this point. I think I will get tired of how it looks though. I don't like the "bubble" style texting. I think even if I were using a different app at this point it's a matter of curiosity now.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rsbenedict:
I prefer Google's Messenger app or EvolveSMS using the Messenger design.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gonowhere:
Do you ever come up with a resolution? I'm having the same problem.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sharpehenry:
I fixed mine by not importing from another launcher, apps get screwy that way in my experience. If it is coming from another device, don't even bother restoring your layouts from clouds either.

Hope this helps.
[G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeems:
Sorry haven't been on here in a week or so. My workaround is a few posts above. I guess I'll add it to the title as well. I'm actually using textra right now though I'm not 100% happy with that app either.

An update to Nova yesterday mentions fixing "messenger app not installed" on the G4.

[General Topics] bugout:
Actually it came today.. UPS just dropped mine off from Sprint. :)
[General Topics] ldubin:
OK I have 7 days to get out of my TMO contract to go with the cheaper service of sprint.

Bugout...how it the phone (I have a Wizard)? The main confusing I'm having is Sprint lists it as having GPS-A and no where can I see that in any specs (nor can I find the claim it has ATI graphics). Any validity, first thoughts.
[General Topics] bugout:
There's reviews all over the place.. but here are my first thoughts coming from 2 weeks with an 8525 (which im returning back to AT&T) and a 700p..

The keyboard has a very nice "spring" to it, unlike the hermes, which requires more of a push/pull to open and close it.

I dont know the exact number, but it's about 10mm thinner then a hermes, but it feels much thinner and lighter then a hermes.

I'm still wet behind the ears with WM (long time palm user and the 700p nightmare had me jump ship). All the applications are very snappy. There is no button in the comm manager to turn on/off wi-fi, there is however a hard switch on the lower left to turn it on and off. SPB pocket plus will turn wifi off/on via an the screen button.

It came with 2 Y adapters in the box. 1 for a/c charge and usb sync, and another for charge and a 3.5mm standard headset jack.

The GPSA is only for location based services, it does not have a standard usable GPS in it. As far as I know it also does not have ATI graphics.

I'm still having usability issues because there seems to be steep learning curve coming from palm i.e. no contact list in the sms app, very annoying or maybe I haven't found it yet, or I just have to retrain my brain to send SMS from contacts instead of the actual SMS app.

Another very annoying this is that there is no battery meter on the top bar. I have to do my research to figure out how to turn that on.
[General Topics] rambo6:
My Mogul should arrive today. I ordered it because I wanted a reliable 3G phone. I've been using an 8525 with Cingy. The 3G internet works great. However, voice call quality with Cingy in Salt Lake City sucks. Lots of dropped and garbled calls. Also, battery life is about 10 hours.

It's rumored that The Mogul has better battery life. Sprint also offers some very nice data packages and 3G in many more places than even Verizon.

I cannot wait to give the phone a try.
[General Topics] ldubin:
Here's the link to the ATI claim http://www.dailytech.com/article.aspx?newsid=7748

I think Dailytech is just confused because the chipset uses it (it also allows for an 8mp camera which would be nice :D )

I know GPSA is location based only but supposedly Sprint is offering their Navigator program with it to work. GPSA does talk to GPS satellites...just with a network and probably something proprietary.

Does anyone know how hackable the Mogul will be. I don't want it on a different network, just maybe a different ROM or something. I've always seen the issues with unlocking CDMA phone but the Apaches seemed to unlock sooo.

Sorry for all the questions...I just now have 6 days to switch (which I'm going to as sprint offered to take my $70 monthly bill to $30). And sprints basic call centers dont understand some of my spec questions.
[General Topics] cuboosh:
if alltell gets this by december ill get it thru them because i was thinking of switching to alltell around that time..
[General Topics] ldubin:
My gfs doing that same with Altell...however...someone just reminded me of this http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/07/feds-impose-partial-ban-on-qualcomm-powered-phones/ Qualcomm phones now have a partial ban on them (shipping into the US) which could lead to supply issues.

On a sidenote either one of the sprint people what to do the $25 refer a friends. I sign up, claim you (give them your cell) refered me...you make $25...i make $25....PM me if your in!
[General Topics] cuboosh:
hmm well that ban sucks ass.. if sprint wasnt such a POS id switch over to them..
[General Topics] bugout:
yes, sprint does offer a navigation service, but it's $9.99/mo.

The internal GPS on this thing is very accurate. I signed up for the free trial of "Sprint family locator" and it had me pegged exactly where I was. Locating my wifes phone (a treo 650 which is in the same house was 2 miles off).

I don't think anyone knows how hackable the mogul is just yet.. That's what we get for "bleeding edge"

Since the galaxy s6 edge has the exynos 7420 cpu does that mean international roms will work on US carriers? just have to change the APNs?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] YANAPAWAY:
I have been wondering the same thing. Have you gotten any further with this?

I'm in South America and would like to flash an INT ROM hoping to get LTE working here. LTE Band where I am right now is 1900 mhz. Would flashing an INT ROM "unlock" the phone for that? Are there other "consequences" that one should be aware of when flashing an official International ROM? Any comment on this is appreciated :good:

You would need more than just download and flash!!! You need to port libs, xmls, framework, apps etc to make it compatible with Sprint

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] YANAPAWAY:
Thanks for the info. In my case I don't need to make it compatible with Sprint since I'm in South America. Any suggestions on how to flash an official International G925 Rom?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Animalityy:
I think that will happens only when somebody write unified kernel for F/I/*/*/*/and P version of this phone. I researched this and found that noone from kernel makers want not do this. In nearby thread one programmer offer to try modified bootloader for 925p (to be able rollback to 5.0.2). He can't even find testers(. No one want brick their phones.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge] Soooperstar:
Not true..... People have been testing bootloaders. Still more work done to be done to it. There have been about 5 testers

Hi All!

I am having a problem with a Galaxy S5 Duos (SM-G900FD) bought used recently. Both IMEI numbers seem legit 355206********* /01 and 355207********* /01, the only difference to the numbers printed on the back is after the slash, saying 355206********* /3 and 355207********* /1. Can this be the source of the problem? I have tried to flash different SM-G900FD firmwares with odin, but getting the same result. Factory reset numerous times. Everything works fine, but when trying to make a call I got the message: "Not registered on network" despite full bars on the notification bar. The phone even sees the operators, but cannot register on the network. Instead of the operator name there is: "Emergency calls only". Can it be, that I am not having the right modem version? It`s SSN is G900FDGSMH I am also noot sure which region is the phone from originally. Any help would highly appreciated.

seriously i never use a case and for the last decade or more i have never cracked a screen and with my Edge and with a case the screen has cracked twice now costing me $400 in Insurance replacements.

it has to be the Edges that weaken the glass. i have dropped my Edge twice and screen broke both times and previous phones i have dropped many many times with no case and no cracks.

not complaining really but my lifestyle may require me to go to the S6 non-Edge :(
[Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KarimSalloum:
There's always a risk of a screen shattering on impact. They are made of glass. Even if you've never broken a screen before, it doesn't have to do much with the curved display in my opinion.

Does anyone know whether its possible to download a standard vanilla WM5 ROM to stick on my Universal?

Currently I have a T-Mobile ROM on it but I'm running into difficulties setting up GPRS and MMS on it. I had a quick word with someone at Carphone Warehouse on the off chance that he might know the solution and he told me (how accurately I don't know) that even if I have managed to unlock it (done, thanks to Buzz's wonderful little tool) putting the GPRS/MMS settings into it will be hard because of all the extra crap that T-Mobile install onto the thing.

So I guess the question I am asking really is do I need a vanilla WM5 Rom or do I need to dig into the registry to clean out the rubbish T-Mobile left in there? Or does the solution to my problem lie in a completely different direction?
