Overblown sensationalism AKA typical journalism. It's a bug but seldom a problem encountered by users, or XDA-Dev would've been flooded with such problem threads long before such publicity sites noticed. Just me personally having switched between over a dozen ROMs/kernels and their versions since March with over 60 average text out per day since and not one occurrence means it isn't anything but rare. I rely on SMS very much daily.

[Desire General] syimi:
I have actually had this bug. Well I haven't ever sent a text message to a wrong person. Sometimes, when i click on the text thread i want to view it will open someone else. But I have always realised this. It happens fairly often, i.e. once every 2 weeks. It must just be the way I use the app.

Secondly, when typing a text sometimes it will jump to the top of the thread, and I have to hold done the menu button to bring the keyboard back and it will jump back down to the input area again. anyone had this problem?
[Desire General] /rant/:
For my birthday, among other things, I got a card from a friend saying "my phone sends weird messages when I am drunk" - can you imagine, how many weird and wrong placed messages she got from me over the past few years without such a bug? And I have a girlfriend... :p
[Desire General] HotEspresso:
Glad to know I'm not the only one with this issue. It's never sent to a random person, but opens up a different thread than the one I touched fairly often. Even creates new ones.
[Desire General] ScrapMaker:
Yeah this is definitely a real problem. If you pay attention to what you're doing, it's not that bad. This seems to happen when I have a lot of messages stored on my device. Android has a real big problem dealing with heavy texting.
[Desire General] madd0g:
Thats the only issue I ever noticed, but never miss-texted because I use my eyes and common sense.
[Desire General] panosx:
I have another problem. Sometimes a message that I try to send gets stored in the outgoing folder, and gets sent automatically when I restart my phone. Anyone encountered this one?
[Desire General] ScrapMaker:
Doesn't your messaging program tell you when the text is sent successfully?
[Desire General] naser6355:
i had the same problem

i sent 2 messages to my girl friend about 4 mounth ago and the delivery report says that is recieves to my another friend. WTF?

i never used android after i saw there is a real bug in engadget.com. embarresing

does gingerbread fixed it?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quattro_rs:
is there a way to unroot and lock the bootloader again ?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] distortedloop:
Yes.

Several discussions about it already in here.

To relock the bootloader is as simple as "fastboot oem lock" command.

There's a couple of different ways to get the root out, they're all mentioned in the thread for it.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slowz3r:
but as of now no way to flash the stock recovery
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] distortedloop:
If you apply the 2.3.1 update, it reflashes the stock recovery on every normal boot, doesn't it?

I lost "permanent" CWM when I did the update and went back to stock. You can still get to CWM via ROM Mgr or fastboot flash.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slowz3r:
Some people had issues flashing 2.3.1 official using CWM.

2.3.1 is incremental so it doesnt include a full recovery
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] distortedloop:
2.3.1 may not include a full recovery, but it includes patches to the boot image (boot.img.p & recovery-from-boot.p) and a script to install the patches on each boot if the recovery is not stock.

The script is /etc/install-recovery.sh and here's what it does:

#!/system/bin/sh
if ! applypatch -c MTD:recovery:2048:8fa462e56115c0bf8141c3879afc8966a2b1c7f0; then
log -t recovery "Installing new recovery image"
applypatch MTD:boot:2949120:ddf4dec1310bc3213cbcdee1f4915e86f045755b MTD:recovery 33b0a9d47b4c83c37d763affdebe5fa84e4f220d 3194880 ddf4dec1310bc3213cbcdee1f4915e86f045755b:/system/recovery-from-boot.p
else
log -t recovery "Recovery image already installed"
fi
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quattro_rs:
can someone explain how to do it step by step im new at this ?

ok i managed to lock the bootloader but im still not sure how to unroot the device !
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slowz3r:
Oh, alright

google hasnt released a full OS for flashing have they?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] distortedloop:
It's in the FAQ that is stickied at the top of the forum here...this is always a good place to start when looking for answers.

Here's the relevant section with links:

If that doesn't get you going, let me know specifically what's confusing you and I'll try to help.

For me, on 2.3.1, I think I would just use adb shell to rm or uninstall the superuser.apk (/data/app/com.noshufou.android.su-1.apk (might be different name on yours depending on version) and then to rm the su binary (/system/bin/su). Then I'd reboot the phone to make sure the recovery was stock, then I'd fastboot oem lock the phone.

Flashing a nandroid might be easier for you.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] distortedloop:
Not that I'm aware of!

Wish they would...I miss having a nice stock image from a trusted source to go back to, but other than root and CWM, I haven't messed with the OS; Gingerbread's fast and sweet enough for me for now.

I don't care for some of the apps though, the gapps camera sucks by a long shot compared to Samsung's SGS camera app, for example.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slowz3r:
Normally I would do CM, but Im not a fan of alpha stage builds, ill wait for beta and then do nightlies from there

Hopefully the CM team take care of issues like the camera, and such

EDIT: never been a fan of CWM, hope Amon_RA releases a recovery
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] distortedloop:
Ditto.

Ditto.

Ditto (for the most part, CWM isn't bad, but I also prefer Amon_RA).

;)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quattro_rs:
i manged to lock/unlcok the bootloader ,

what i dont understand is this :
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slowz3r:
the stock recovery does not allow you to flash custom/unsigned roms or other files for that matter.

so a custom Recovery is required, as of now the only one I believe is available is ClockWorkMod
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quattro_rs:
got it all working now thanks to you and distortedloop .

thanks a lot guys.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] KararM:
Now that I have everything working on my rooted Nook, I would like to backup everything that I have on my unit so I can restore it in case I run into any problems. Can anyone suggest a good app for that?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] likearaptor:
Titanium Backup
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] ewong90:
Make sure that when you restore your apps, that you don't also restore app data. It'll mess with the Barnes and Noble authentication and reset your rooted device.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Homer_S_xda:
I'm glad someone asked this. I did just this yesterday and ka-blam, authentication error. When doing a backup with TB (that just sounds wrong BTW), should we only do user apps/data and not system apps/data? The first go around, I did the latter and hit the authentication error. After re-rooting, which was challenging as it was sort of caught halfway, I only restored user apps/data. So far no issues.

Thoughts?

Homer
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] ewong90:
I would only restore your user apps, no data. That has worked well for me.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] wvcachi:
I personally wouldn't think restoring apps + data would be a problem (he said it's fine so far) . . . Restoring all your system data is usually what causes problems, if anything.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Pinesal:
I have gone through and restored app data on individual apps where it matters most like in games especially and I have had no problems.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] likearaptor:
Same here, I have been using Titanium Backup since the Nook was rooted. I have only had my Nook show the not authorized message and reformat once. So I am not sure it is Titanium Backup
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Homer_S_xda:
I don't think it is an issue with TB, something in restored

system data

seems to freak B&N out. Maybe there is something time based in there and it pukes on the mismatch. My NC has been happy since yesterday with restoring

user apps and data

.

Homer
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] ictguy78:
Has anyone had problem with the Pro version downgrading to the Free version after freezing apps and then rebooting? I've tried twice now (froze apps then rebooted) and both times I run Titanium Backup again it's reverted to the Free version. I have to go back to the market, uninstall, then reinstall.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] rswain64:
Just downloaded MyBackup Root off the market place. Used it for the factory reset for my DroidX since I'm was having some lag on the phone after latest update. Haven't tried it yet on the NC.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] RoboRay:
Do you have a µSD card installed? I believe TB Pro places a file on the µSD card that the app uses to verify that you've paid for the Pro version. If you don't have a µSD card installed, that may prevent TB from realizing that you've paid for the Pro version after a reboot.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] ictguy78:
Yes, the card is installed. It's not really a big deal because it's easy to reinstall.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] RoboRay:
Well, I'm out of ideas, then.

Weird.
[Wildfire General] Allattar:
I followed the network message that came up about 2.2 being available and let it update itself.

It rebooted and now the touchscreen refuses to work.

HTC Sync appears to offer no help at all.

I am guessing that I need to reinstall the os. However I am at a loss to how to do this.

Current state of play is that I cannot do anything with the phone. I cannot get past the lock screen as wiping down wont do anything to unlock it. I tried the trick of calling yourself and that doesnt do anything either.

T-mobile support were really helpful... They kept trying to get me to use HTC sync which fails to give me the options i need and keeps saying no storage device is available. I tried swapping the Micro SD card over just in case and no joy there either.

I was particularly impressed by t-mobile or htc support trying to call me back on my mobile. Well done, I told you I couldnt use the phone becuase of the touchscreen. :mad:

Ive been trawling the web for a download of 2.2, but I keep falling foul of dubious download sites which claim they are hosting it, but seem to link to media streamer downloads, and divx codecs, anything but the operating system I want.

Can anyone help me with step by step instructions and links to find the OS.

(Please dont ask if I have tried removing the battery, its been in and out so many times now I havent bothered putting the back, back on.)
[Wildfire General] vijaykr1985:
If your phone is still under warranty period, better return it for service. I see that you didnt do any mistake other than you tried to update. So i dont think it will be a problem. Dont try anything fancy and damage your phone unless you are sure about what you are going to do.
[Wildfire General] gwiedo:
in nothing helps, you can try a hard reset.

search the web for "wildfire and hard reset"
[Droid 2 Global General] freddan007:
I recently rooted my phone and edited my keyboard layout files a little(/system/usr/keylayout/). I made up and down "z" and "x" but it didn't work instantly. I backed them up onto my sdcard and have restored them to their original state.

Then, like a day later I noticed the numbers and special characters had been shuffled. I assumed the device automaticly had switched layout from the milestone2 one to the qwerty.kl one. I tried the up and down keys and they produced x's and z's. Then after a while the phone started acting very weird:

The keyboard stopped working.

When spamming keys for a while the phone will go to the homescreen and sometimes reboot.

The menu, home, back keys all do the same thing. It is sometimes something of a combination of back and home. It fades to black and goes to the starting position of the current application. And sometimes the phone will freeze and reboot.

Whenever I use the on-screen keyboard to erase a character or input a number the phone will perform something of a double back-action.

I have tried to to a factory reset in the privacy menu multiple times with my phone un-rooted.

I have also done a factory reset with the 'x' + power then @-key about 3 times but my problem is still there.

Any help on how to resolve this is appreciated.

Thanks!

Is there any way to play a ".mov" file from my laptop to my SGS via AllShare? Thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikextr23:
Hmmm. It looks like nobody's streaming .mov file through AllShare DLNA?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestK0097:
I'm not sure but I think that your Player/TV have to support that codec.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mikextr23:
That is true, however what i want to do is to stream .mov file from my laptop into MY SGS and NOT TO ANY TV. And we all know that SGS player doesn't support .mov file so i was hoping if anyone here know any media server (i.e. PS3 Media Server decode on the fly video files that in turn ps3 can play) that would stream and decode on the fly .mov files into a readable file for SGS.

Tab in big problem

Hi everyone.

Im from MExico and i use...used a Galaxy Tab P1000LUMJI with Voicecall capabilities, well, until few minutes ago and i am really new with Galaxy Tab, i installed this them through recovery mode just like the instructions.

Everything went perfect but when it rebooted, it stopped in black screen with "samsung" glowing. Additionaly, its like a cycle because the process is not freezing just making the same glowing screen,.

The tab vibes first one time and after that two times again.

Any solution to remove that update.zip?

Help!!
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] dhanjel:
jae hoon: try to use all clear options in the recovery menu. something similar happened to me and my galaxy s phone and that solved the problem.
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] jae hoon:
Thanks for your advice, i tried that, i selected all the options: wipe and clear cache and data to factory through recovery mode....still same.

I think once i applied the update.zip, something like the kernel changed mine. The big problem if it is so, is we are so few members with the Galaxy Tab from Telcel here in Mexico.

I think i will take it to warranty service.

I hope they can do something. :(:(:(:(:(:(
[Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps] jae hoon:
bad news, good news

Hi.

Today i went to my carrier customer office and i they took the tab to check it and reinstall the OS... at least they didnt complain nothing. I have to go back to my office for a while.

[Nexus S General] cyc1120:
Hi all,

just got the Nexus S yesterday. I was playing around with the Camera app and as soon as I switch to the front-facing camera the app force closes. It will force close when I try to re-open it (probably because it is trying to open the app with the front-facing camera on). Couldn't get it to work and had to factory reset it so that the app boots from the front camera.

I tried to google it and don't seem to find anyone else with that problem. Have anyone else experienced this?
[Nexus S General] distortedloop:
I can switch to front camera and back without issue.

If you have the problem again, maybe try going to /Settings/Applications/Manage Applications, then ALL, then find the camera and just try clearing data.

That might avoid a factory reset and wipe of the phone. I don't believe this would impact your pictures you've taken, but safe to have a backup first!
[Nexus S General] chazburgr:
Same issue. It's a temporary solution, as the force closes happen once you go into Camera and try to switch to the front facing camera after clearing data.
[Nexus S General] cyc1120:
Thanks for the replies.

So is the issue hardware or software?
[Nexus S General] tks989:
i would get it exchanged just because... it isn't supposed to be doing that stock
[Nexus S General] cyc1120:
So, I updated the phone to 2.3.1 and tried to install tango (known for supporting front camera). Tried to video call and front-facing camera won't work.

Problem with exchanging it is that I'm from Canada and bought the phone on Craigslist (I do have the gift receipt though) :(
[A7 General] RojasTKD:
unfortunately, I have no idea what any of that menas.
[A7 General] Dexter_nlb:

i have a samsung intercept and whenever i try to flash a rom i get this error

"E:Can't chown/mod /system/bin (no such file or directory) E:Failure at line 7: set_perm_recursive 0 2000 0755 0755 SYSTEM:bin Error applying update!"

what's causing this error and is there a way to fix it?
[General Questions and Answers] deliberate187:
Have you rooted your phone? Is it running stock firmware or a custom ROM? What kind of update are you trying to apply? These details are important and can help one of us solve the problem 9 times out of 10.

I need to know these things before I can give you a definitive answer. If you've modified the firmware in ANY way, chances are you'll need to reflash with a stock firmware to apply that update.
[General Questions and Answers] sylaran:
Right, sorry. I have stock everything now. I had inxanes kernel installed but I started to get audio popping so I went back to stock. I've tried installing cherry kernel but it just gets stuck at the first samsung screen.
[General Questions and Answers] deliberate187:
You're in luck. http://www.howardforums.com/showthread.php/1691827-Intercept-free-stock-ROMs-and-apps! that URL contains links to the ROMs plus directions for flashing them. I would use the SWUpgrade ones. Download the one that has both the ROM and recovery.
[General Questions and Answers] sylaran:
well the only one that i see that has both the rom and recovery is for sprint and i'm on VM. i will download the stock vm tar and try flashing it through swupgrade.

which custom rom would you recommend for the intercept? when i first had my phone rooted and everything i installed basicROM, but i would always get lots of force closes on apps.

well, the swupgrade doesn't work... i guess. whenever i go to flash it with swupgrade my phone just boots up normally and the patcher just stays at 0%. is it doing this because i already have the stock rom?

so i tried installing inxane's kernel and then installing the stock rom through the custom recovery that's installed. got the kernel installed no problem, but i still get the error in the OP whenever i try to install the stock rom zip i have. i restored my system backup that i have so i am back on the stock kernel and stock rom. i still have the boot image from when i had basicROM installed, but it says everything is stock in the about phone.
[General Questions and Answers] deliberate187:
Power button should be the last one you press. Hold down the other 2 until it boots into recovery.
[General Questions and Answers] sylaran:
yes, i know. i get into the recovery/flash menu fine (vol down + cam + power), but whenever i plug in the usb and press start for the flashing on swupgrade, my phone just boots up normally from that screen. sorry for the confusion.
[General Questions and Answers] deliberate187:
I'm downloading the firmware now. Ill post results. You may have to flash with odin
[General Questions and Answers] deliberate187:
According to some users you need to uninstall and reinstall swupgrade then copy the .tar files from your archive into your swupgrade/models/binary folder. Then boot into recovery again and flash.

Is this normal behaviour within WM, or is it unique to NAND android?

I have the JawsMIUI NAND build installed on my phone. I started with 2.15.50 radio and battery life was weaker than others in the thread so I tried changing radios.

I tried installing the 2.12.50, 2.07.50 and 2.10.50 radios. The phone was booting up fine but it was asking for a SIM unlock code, and refusing to connect to my network without one.

When I re-installed the 2.15.50 radio it started working again. My phone is locked to Orange UK.

So again my question is, is this normal behaviour or unique to nand android?
