Alright I recently rooted and did a p3 kernel and a cyanogen rom. After a little trial and error and 8 million unneeded backups all is flying nicely. My only problem the stock ringtone of "droid" is gone, not in any list anywhere. I actually used said ringtone for txts so the problem is if I go into settings/sound when I select notifications settings crashes every time. Now since all my apps that use notification sounds are customizable they all work just fine. Problem is I want my damn droid sound back. All the ones I can get from ringtone apps aren't quiet as clean/clear or the have dead air time before or after. Now I used titanium backup before and after to no avail. Anyone got any ideas? Thanks for the help.

*bump* okay still unaware WHY said file disappeared but I've since fixed the crashing problem. Anyone care to send me the stock droid.ogg file? I would be greatly appreciative.

Hi
I'm running cyanogen 4.2.4 and its AWESOME. But I've found a problem which I'm hoping someone on xda can help fix. Everytime I'm running an app (browser, messsaging, etc) and either I lock my phone, when I unlock it the app I was running is automatically ended. This has now got a bit annoying as my phone is set to timeout after 30 seconds and if I'm @ work and I'm halfway through texting someone but I have to get back to work I find my phones locked and the message disappears
Thank You in advance
Ps - I'm running stock 2.0 theme
regarding apps closing on their own
The first thought that comes to mind is... Are you running a theme? Are you using a task manager type app? If so are the apps you're seeing end on their own in your exclude list? Most task manager apps have a settable time to stop all running apps to free up ram and save battery. I've tested your issue and I can't seem to duplicate it. So I'm leaning on the idea you have a task manager app turning them off for you. If there is an app you don't want to close, then put it in the "exclude list" and you should be fine
and if that doesnt work you can always wipe and reflash
i seem to be having a slight issue with double sms notifications.2 different icons showing i have messages.im using the stock android client so im getting that icon but im also getting what looks to be handcent icon.which i am not using.not even on my phone.i have completely wiped twice and reloaded everything.have run 2 different nightlys.not sure if it makes any difference but im also running paid version of launcher pro.wanted to give it a try.if this has been resolved elsewhere and i missed it i apologize but when i searched i didnt see anything related to nexus and froyo.
thanks
What happens if you tap on the unwanted notification?
It opens up to the messages same as stock icon
Go pick up handcent on the market disable notifications reboot and then uninstall it in settings. Should go away.
Ok,I will try that.thanks
That got it.thank you. Any idea why it started doing that even after 2 wipes?
As I have gone along here I have figured out that "complete wipes" are actually far from it. Another gotcha is that there can be detritus on the sd that comes back to haunt you with various apps depending on what they cache there.
Receiving sms but end up in a different contact name. Anyone has this problem? Pls help.

To put it simply just restore factory presets and try again. Should work.

I have experienced the same problem.
How would restoring factory presets help? (and what settings does this actually restore?)
same probleme with mine (SFR France), it suddenly started doing that two days ago and now all new received messages are messed up.
Will try to delete the messaging cache only at first (I have quite a few programs installed and would not like to reset the tablet....)
if anyone has a fix (even if it needs root......) I am happy to know it.
It seems to happen with all android phones BTW, so must be solved somehow no?
Had the same thing, after reboot all messages were in the right conversations.

Nothing new, had this issue with multiple Android devices.
A long long discusion about it, and it seemes google has fixed the sms problems, so its just to await updates from vendors.
PS a good rule to folow is.
Once you open messaging app, let it settle before moving arround in messages.
There have been issues with sms showing up under wrong persons, and sms going out to wrong person, depending on faulty situation.
Btw as long as you always send clean and nice sms's its not a real problem? is it?
Hahaha

true!
BTW, I have my tab working back ok.
what I did is go on settings/softwares/Manage/ and force closed and deleted all cache from the messaging programs.
after that, I had to reset my SMS ringtones, server phone number and it goes great since!
no format or loss of any message, and everything sorted out.
give it a try, always better than a wipe.
I could not find the path mentioned Settings/Softwares/Manage. Are you talking about Settings from the sms screen, the main tab screen, or something else? Appreciate if you could help to clarify.
Thanks.

I haven't received any texts for over a week now. I was running CyanogenMod 6.1 and tried multiple times to reboot/re-flash/wipe to no avail. Yesterday I flashed to CM7 and still no luck. Anyone have any ideas?
Am I the only one who sees a new post with this topic at least once a week? Too bad there's not a search option on xda. /end rant
Nandroid, flash a Sense based ROM, update profile & PRL, confirm that you can send & receive SMS, restore your nandroid.

Flash a sense rom, update your profile and prl. Send and receive a few text. Flash back to cm.
I haven't had this issue but it's worked for some. Task killers or removing the messaging apk because you use a 3rd party app would be another couple of common things

Or do what he said

Sorry for the annoyance, but thanks for helping me out. It seems to be working now, though I couldn't restore my nand backup for some reason. Oh well.
SMS compatibility issues
I am having what I believe to be compatibility issues with my hero. When my friends send me those annoying mass MMS's with video or something moving in the message all I get is the first still frame of whatever the video is. What could be the problem? I am using CM6 stable.
The problem is their mms and cm. You can view it on the sprint picture site or some you can save to sd by long pressing the message and view from there

hey guys, so my brothers got a droid 3, and since he lives in wyoming and i'm in NJ, i can't diagnose it in person...
but he keeps having his background wallpapers changing by themselves all the time. he's using stock backgrounds, not SD card images, and they always just randomly change. he said it'll change between two gray type ones over and over. pretty anoying.
he also says his ringtones keep changing by themselves and constantly changes his ringer, notification sounds, and now his email notification makes a sound even though he had that off.
anyone have any idea whats wrong? it's stock phone, no root or anything...thanks!!
It's probably an app.
Ive had the ring tone issue before but never the wallpaper one. To fix the ringtone issue i just factory reset and reinstalled my apps via titanium backup. Hasnt reoccured since.
The ringtones: Thats because everytime you mount your usb cable and access the sdcard the link to the ringtones and notification tones gets lost. Putting these as a root user in system/media prevents them from getting lost.
try it.
what app would possibly change wallpapers? lol
