I just flashed CM6 for the first time on my new HTC Hero, and the messaging app is completely broken. I tried backing up all my texts, then clearing the data (Settings -> Applications -> All -> Messaging -> Clear data), but that not only didn't help, I also was't able to restore any of my texts from backup.
Every time I start the messaging app, I get the error:
Sorry!
The application Messaging (process com.android.mms) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.

Interestingly, if I use a voice command to send a text, it actually gets delivered. But I don't get any responses, and even if I did, I probably wouldn't be able to read them.
What can I do to fix it?
Thanks!

Have you tried doing a wipe of data, cache and dalvik cache and flashing cm6 again?

You probably won't be able to restore your texts from another rom into cm. I would wipe data/cache, and this time don't restore the texts.

Thank you, I've wiped and re-flashed. I'm out of the country right now, so I can't verify that the messaging app is actually working, but at least it doesn't crash when I open it.

Yup, works
Yes, it works great now. I even managed to backup all my texts and restore them with the SMS Backup+ app. I tried the "Backup to Gmail" app, which also backs up call logs, but it has no restore functionality, regrettably.

Good sirs,
Recently, like since last week, I cannot see any of my installed apps in the Android Market, under "My apps". Consequently i also cannot see any updates to those apps.
The ONLY thing, I see there are the apps I have purchased, and any apps I newly install...
I have a captivate running cognition 2.1.6.
anyone else having this issue?
HELP!!!
Have you tried clearing the data?
Menu button->Settings->Applications->Manage Applications->Third Party Tab then scroll down and choose Market then click Clear Data.
Try the above first, if that doesnt work, go to the market and download Eris Market Fix. This app worked for me on my captivate before.
im running 2.1. dont see a third party tab.
but i did clear the cache. did not help.
then tried uninstalling the updates to market. it said uninstall failed.
Now my market is completley gone!!
I'd suggest three other things then...
First would be to restore from a backup... you did backup your apps when you flashed right?
Second would be to use or get SGS Tools and try the Market Fix option there. Find it here... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=936727
Third would be to search vending.apk That's the market apk, then download it and sideload it.

I reinstalled a whole new ROM...
BTW, I heard that using the new market web interface will break the market on devices with custom ROMs. is this true??!
I haven't heard of anything lime that. When I was on 2.1, I had a blackmarket app that allowed.me to upgrade my market interface. I have never had a problem with not being able to see free appear tho. I suggest backing up anything you have that's important and after attempting any fixes that others will and have spelled out, try a ODIN3 restore. I don't have any links but it will fully restore your phone to stock. Some of your data should still be there but it will do a full wipe and restore. Other than that, don't listen to me. I only have 3 posts.......

Your problem is your trying to restore system info to a Rom that uses a different system. CM7 doesn't use anything Samsung like the dialer, contacts or sms apps as to where S7 does.
oh cool... So how do I restore my contacts/sms?

Use Google too back up your contacts and a 3rd party app for your sms. But no promises that it will work right as it is advised to never restore system data to a new os build.

Cool thanks, heading back to serendipity as we speak.
One last question, how come when I was in CM7, and i restarted the phone (after plenty of restarts) all of a sudden i was unable to lock the screen, unable to press search or home, and unable to receive calls.
Hey all.
First things first, absolutely loving ICS on the SGS. Never looking back after spending time on this OS.
Only thing that's troubling me is the messaging app. Frequently struggling to send out and receive sms messages, as they seem to be delayed up to 5 minutes at a time. Tried flashing JVT, JVQ and now JVK, with none fixing the solution.
I'm also suffering from constant 'Unfortunately Messaging has stopped working' errors, requiring a reboot of the phone.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

am not facing any such problem..
though you can try clearing messaging data ... or ...reflashing the rom.. and if that doesn't work then some other messaging app like GO SMS or Handscent SMS..
use other massage applications

Tried to clear message data a few times, no change.
If i make a nandroid backup, then reflash the rom and restore, will everything go back exactly as it was?
Could it have anything to do with location / modems?

I don't think restoring from a nandroid backup will help as it brings back the same state as your phone is now in..
I would suggest using titanium backup pro for backing up apps and data and use 'sms backup and restore' or some other app to backup messages.. this way you'll get a clean install...
Don't forget to wipe/factory reset before flashing again..
I don't think it has to do anything with modem/ location..

Yeah i didnt think so.
Alrighty then, when i get a chance to do a clean install i'll try it out.
It's so weird, because my girlfriend has the exact same phone (sgs i9000 with onecosmis 4.0.3) on the same provider, who lives just up the road from me and is having the exact same problems!
Did this get a solution? I am having the exact same problem - "Unfortunately messaging has stopped." but I also get another kind of error - can't hear or be heard during some calls until reboot.
I'm getting this on different ICS roms too :/
Any help is greatly appreciated.
I am also getting same issue on ICS (cm9).
Other apps like Adobe Reader, Kingsoft office, file manager are not giving this error.
Camera, clock, settings are showing same error "Unfortunately <the app> has stopped"
any help?
Do I need Gapps for this rom? I have installed it correctly and everything, and I dont have any of the google apps, market place force closes, and so does camera. there is supposed to be a "spare parts" included on the ROM but there its no where to be found. someone please help me, I have to leave for school soon and I need to be able to use my phone today.
Gapps is included. Did you nand and wipe? If you did a nand backup then just wipe and restore what you had until you get home. The problem could very well be that you didnt wipe well enough (no pun intended). I would try a fresh install.
Okay thank you I will try it when I get home. Also things didn't start force closing until I restored all my apps via titanium backup.

That'll usually do it, sadly. Try not to restore any system apps or system data.
Edit: system data

So I have to sacrafice my data to use this rom? is there any way to reflash and keep data?
Just don't restore system apps+the data for them. User apps should be fine.

Hello, anyone else having the same problem as me and please help offer solutions.
My Contacts APPs keep FC most of the time when a call comes in. When this happens, usually I will not see the caller ID (only the number is displayed, not the names in my contact list). Sometimes the phone just hang and reboot and I believe the Contact is messing up the phone. Call logs will not show until the Contact apps run again after a few mins.
I saw post somewhere that this happens when contact list gets big and I follow the instruction to completely clear my contacts and restore them. But this does not help.
Phone is not having problem when I was in GB rom (2.3.5 and 2.3.6) and problem exist after upgrade to ICS. I tried 2 different ICS rom from different region (4.0.3), the same happens. Recently upgraded to 4.04. Problem remains.
I even downgrade back to GB. Clear cache, factory reset. Restore to ICS 4.0.4. I use Titanium to restore all apps and phone data. Problems still there.
I reflash the above again, this time only restore the apps and not phone data. This doesn't help.
Am at a lost what to do now? Everything runs fine except the Contact.
Download an alternative app for contacts
There are plenty of apps on google play

This is more of a workaround than a fix...
I've had this issue with contacts and then usually dialler gets problems. How are you adding your contacts, from a Google account? If so, try clearing the data and cache on both the contacts app and contacts storage app, then re sync your contacts, let me know if it helps.

Hi, Thanks for the reply. I've tried your suggestions before but problem still exist. I'm using Samsung contact to do a backup/restore. I've tried before GO's contact and Superbackup. None solve the problem.
Currently, I just tried this method below to disable the Sync contact settings. Let's see if this will work.
http://jjpda.blogspot.sg/2012/07/android-404-contacts-force-close.html
There might be some permission error. If you are rooted then try extracting the contacts.apk, contacts.odex files from Stock ROM package and push it into system app folder. it might help. for a safer side you can also copy Phone.apk files along.
