[Q] COS "bugs" - no sms and no status bar - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I find what seems bugs on the gingerbread COS rom.
on the 20/05 build I did not receive SMS at all (but I could send them and they were received) .. no notification .. nothing in Messaging and when I got back to my rom I didn't receive them (so "lost" ?)
on the 22/05 build sms work but now I don't have the "status bar" at all (and also no notification bar).
- In ADW settings even if I untick "hide status bar" .. nothing
- I tried gestures to get the status bar or notification bar to appear .. but nothing
- I tried ADW settings resets and looking at settings around .. but nothing
On this second point, has anyone got any pointers ?
Tnx
P.S. = I'm not allowed to post in the dev forum

did u wipe before flashing the rom?
I have never had any of these problems with this Rom. By the way, I'm currently using the 5/20 build.

for 20/05 did a full wipe, for 22/05 didn't
I'm reinstalling now after full wipe and let's see if it was that.
I also upgraded to latest hboot and radio.
I'm ignorant on how to restore sms and some other user data and apps when installing a new rom - so wanted to avoid the wipe.
Tnx for your help

Froyo No Phone App. Doesn't work.

My phone shortcut states: 'Application is not installed on your phone'
I reinstalled the aosp dialer but no love yet.
Same thing here... I was using CM 5.0.5.3, tried to flash Froyo (from Modaco), but there where too many FCs, so I flashed CM 5.0.6 first (everybody says you can flash Froyo on top of this without wiping; I dare not wipe), and then Froyo.
Everything seems to work fine after that, EXCEPT dialer app and contacts app...
No icons for these apps in the App menu and when tapping the new dialer icon of the launcher, I get the massage "Application not installed on your phone"...
I even tried to wipe the cache for these 2 apps with no result.
This cannot be happening to just the two of us, guys, please help!
Did you try clearing defaults? Sounds like somethings not compatible with Froyo, but it doesn't know to go back to the default dialer...
I have your same problem.
The default are clean, but no icon for contacts and dialer, and the button says application not installed....
fix?
Hey guys, I had the same problem after upgrading to MoDaCo r17 from r3.1. Full data wipe fixed this issue for me. (after nandroid backup of course) Hope this helps. Pea's

[Q] Why won't Sprint Hero won't vibrate after 6.1 flash

First of all, great work on fixing a crippled Sprint product!
I love what cm does, but 1 problem I can't seem to get around is this: Ever since I first rooted my Hero in early November with CM 6.0 and after upgrading it to 6.1 when it came out, my phone will not vibrate. It doesn't matter what settings I try, there is no vibration. I seem to remember that when I first rooted, the vibrate feature disappeared. Even trying to use the screen that allows you to pick what vibration pattern you want, doesn't work. Is there a fix for this?
Thanks again for all you do!
Mark
That's strange because vibrate works just fine on mine.
I'm sure you already tried this, but did you check under the sound settings to make sure Vibrate is enabled? How about haptic feedback under Language & Keyboard settings?
Also, when you upgraded from CM6.0, did you install with or without a complete user data/cache wipe?
My suggestion would be to backup your user data with Titanium backup if necessary, backup your current ROM with Nandroid and re-install CM6.1 from scratch, this time clearing user data/cache. Restore your user data that doesn't automatically restore from your Titanium backups.
Hope this works for you.
theres a program called sound manager in the market. i get that, enable vibrate within that app. test it, reboot, test it and the vibrate will work. then i uninstall that app and good to go.
thats how i fixed the vibrate issue
I would try downloading it again, checking the md5 and reflashing it.

[Q] [GT-i9000] - ICS - Gmail

Hello guys.
Yesterday I updated from latest stock ROM to ICS Dark Knight 5.5, then for many problems I switched to ICS 4.0.3 ICSSGS RC 4.2 Onecosmic.
Now there's only a pair of problems, but I think these could belong to the same cause:
in the notification bar, it sometimes says it's running out of storage
Gmail works really bad, it takes minutes to send or receive a mail and the refresh button doesn't work
Can anybody help me fixing this?
I was thinking how to reset Gmail: deleting application data doesn't work, is it ok if I delete any file related to Gmail in data/app?
Thanks everybody!
look for datafix script on xda. it should solve your ''low storage'' problem. and for gmail, i'd delete app's data, force close it, then wipe cache and dalvik and fix permissions in recovery. if that doesn't work, you should ask the dev of your rom for some solution.
Try this,
[Script]New "Low Storage" Notification fix
Don't be deleting gmail stuff.

Hi, try reset factory, if dont work try another rom.
Help
Hi ultradj83
Why not cut your losses and try a more up-to-date rom. ICSSGS now has a newer version but now by Team Nyx (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1677650). If you want to keep the ROM you have just open apps in settings and clear gmail data. If all else fails, try fixing permissions in recovery mode.

[Q] Apps can't update or download....

Hello all,
I'm having a bit of an issue where I can't download or update anything from play store or anywhere else really. Things start downloading and then when they near completion and get to about 98%, they get stuck there and eventually give an error that they cant download. It's only happening on my new Lollipop install. I flashed the 23.1.A.0.726 ftf file on an unlocked bootloader and i am running it on Androplus advanced stock kernel v2.
I've not has this issue on a similar version of kitkat that I currently have a back up of on the same phone. \I'm just bouncing between the two when i get some time to try and fault find the lollipop version. Obviously I want to move to the lollipop version permanently but i will only do that when I've sorted out this issue.
I cant seem to find anyone having the same issue. I've tried the following methods but they didn't work....
First.
Quick toggle pull down
Settings
Apps
Swipe left to the "all" catagory
Scroll down till you find "Google Play Store"
Force stop
Clear data
Now try the play store
If that doesn't work
Try
Quick Toggle pull down
Settings
Scroll down to accounts
Tap Google
Tap your account
Tap the settings menu (three dots in the upper right)
Remove Account
Back out to the settings screen
Add Account
Google
Sign in with your Google account
Does anyone have any other possible solutions to this or know what the hell maybe going on?
Thank you!!

Thanks for the suggestions. I had a look in system apps and both of these are there and unfrozen.
I'm actually trying to run LP 5.0.2: Massive DEBLOATING/23.1.A.0.726 custom FW for Z3C -all working (xposed etc) by moly82. I've tried a full wipe and install via recovery and still i cant get any apps to actually fully download and install. They all get to 99%and then never install for some weird reason.
did you finally solved somehow your problem?
try to flash the latest ROM from moly82 (v4): http://forum.xda-developers.com/z3-compact/general/wip-debloat-lp-690-correct-functioning-t3076161

Having some serious notification alert problems with Android 10 on sprint s10

Many of my apps have stopped generating notification alerts, including Google Voice, Ebay and Samsung's built-in Calendar app. For no rhyme or reason, I randomly get a barrage of past notification alert sounds all at once and they are all from earlier in the day. Additionally, I do not receive any notifications that Google Voice has a text message waiting for me to read until I manually open up the Google Voice app. The same goes for manually opening up any other app: notifications suddenly start appearing in my notifications bar. This never used to be a problem in Android 9 OS. It all started happening when my carrier pushed out the Android 10 update. Is there really not a solution to this problem? I asked Samsung support and they told me that all they could do was reset my phone. I believe resetting a device to complete factory should NOT be the first solution offered.
You have 3 choices:
1) clear cache in recovery - may or may not help
2) data factory reset in recovery - will more than likely fix it
3) flash the stock firmware in Odin - will definitely fix it, but will also wipe the phone

Currently testing out option 1. So far, its working correctly for a day. I hope it is the fix...
Check the battery optimization and try to lock the apps in in task manager. still not perfect but for some apps it does the trick.

After a week, the first option still wasn't working. I guess onto step 2...

Hmm. So I looked in Device Care > Memory section and there was a place where I could add apps that shouldn't be memory monitored (maybe it was closing it out being in the background too long?). I did this today so I will have to check back in a week to see if it fixes it. If not, then I really have to just do a data recovery reset
