Got a bit of an odd one for you guys. My girlfriends phone has exactly the same set up as me (phone rom kernel) but I have no issues at all. No matter what I do I cant open links from within her messages app (phone numbers / web addresses ect ) If I use a third party app like handscent it works fine but tbh I would much prefer the stock app. I have tried fresh installs, updates clearing data ect but no luck. Just about to try a completely different rom with a modded messaging app to see if it works. Any ideas?
Ended up just using a 3rd party sms application as it seems I am the only one with this issue. No issues after go sms install

I am having the same issue (Post Android 4 update). Does anyone know how to fix it?
If you look like on the xda portal... You'll find the way to take out htclinkify...
I would assume it has to do with that...

i recently noticed when i try to download any app from the android market or update an app it will act like its starting the download but then never actually start it. im running the latest cyanogen rom. i have tried wiping and reflashing the latest cyanogen rom and reflashing the google apps addon. i have tried restoring to a previous backup when the apps were working in the market. i have tried flashing a non cyanogen rom even. nothing i can think of (my thoughts are limited since im fairly new at all this) and still no success. i had the same problem on my g1 with cyanogen and i somehow managed to get that working again by trying similar things but no luck yet with my nexus one and its really upsetting me. any ideas on how i can go about fixing this? thanks for all your help

May sound stupid (and yes, it is) but try launching google talk. Often bby logging in to talk, market downnloads kick off. Seems to be google account related.

hi, am facing the same issue..... I've tried opening talk like the previous poster suggested but it doesn't work..... appreciate any help on this.... I'm running the latest cm, with grnstatus bar morph..

try going into settings, applications, market, and uninstall updates, then open the market again
Sent from my Nexus One using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
OK I tried the uninstall updates idea and no luck there. Opening Google talk also didn't solve the problem. Any other ideas guys? Thanks
I wonder if you ever found a solution to this?
Well for me, I have to open GTalk and close it and reopen and close and reopen...it eventually works when it fully loads... Oddly, it seems to only happen on wifi. I'm pretty sure it's a GTalk issue.
Hopefully the new market system will make a difference...I really hope
How's the amount of space on your phone? Do you see the little hard drive icon? I know that the Market always starts to download stuff but never actually downloads anything when my phone space its low.
Hope this helps!

To put it simply just restore factory presets and try again. Should work.
Sent from my SPH-P100 using XDA App
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've been messing with my Captivate a lot for the past few weeks, rooted and flashed once I got sick of waiting for an update. I've tried most of the major roms out there and am having a great time learning about it all.
I have a problem and would appreciate some advice on the simplest way to solve it. Whenever I try to enter the image gallery, I get a black screen for a few seconds, then it vibrates a few times and kicks back to the home screen and gives me a failure notification. It does this regardless of what rom I'm running so I'm assuming it has something to do with the file structure on the card? If I data reset, will this fix it?
I looked around but didn't see an apparent answer for this specific issue. Thanks
Try this, download sgs tools from market. Goto uodate stock apps select gallery

Hmmm, I downloaded it and it doesn't seem to do that much. I don't see any options like that for sure. What is that program supposed to do?
After I posted I realized the app I referenced is not on the market.
Have you tried deleting app data
settings, applications, manage, all, gallery, delete data

Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA App
wow, thanks! That did it. I just upgraded the stock app and it's fine now. This app looks really useful, what are some of its other uses?
Secret codes gets you into a bunch of useful things
like lbs test mode for gps
the updated gallery you installed is also supposed to help battery somehow.
I do not use it all too much though, but I keep it around

Hi,
I have searched these forums, and others, regarding this problem but it would seem none of the problems people have when sending from Gmail is what I'm experiencing.
First off I have an Incredible S running Android Revolution HD™ 1.1.7 (can't find any issues from other people using this ROM).
Ok, so in the Gmail app I go to compose email, create it etc etc, when I go to send it (either by hitting the send button on the screen, or from Menu > Send), the send button greys out but that is it. It doesn't go to the outbox, it doesn't say 'sending' in red letters, it literally does nothing.
All other problems I have seen have been the above two, but I haven't seen a problem where it literally does nothing. After selecting send, I have left it for a good 20 minutes before and it's still not sent (the email was a couple of words, no attachments etc).
Any ideas? I have tried all the recommended 'fixes' mentioned when searching for the other problems (i.e. clear cache, data, checked sync settings, etc etc).
Thanks.
Seems to be a weird issue indeed.
have you tried uninstalling and re installing the gmail app?
it is available in the market.
if that doesn't work & assuming you have correctly installed the rom, i would believe you could try wiping everything and re-installing ARHD.
Try clearing data for Gmail App @ Settings>Applications>Manage Applications
I have already cleared data and cache many times, and I don't seem to have the ability to uninstall it, I'm guessing due to the ROM?

Are you still having this issue? I have the same problem. And it's the same from CM7 to EVO Classic. Not sure what's going on with it. Did you ever find a solution?

I've had this problem for a couple years...I had it on my HTC Desire and on my HTC Sensation. On my Sony Tablet it works just fine.
Obviously I've full wiped numerous times and tried umpteen ROMs. So strange.
I've been seeing a lot of posts from people complaining about how their FB contact photos don't appear in 3rd party apps such as Messaging or Google Voice. I've attached an APK that will alleviate this issue. Root access will be required and should work in both Sense and AOSP ROMs. For more information about the APK, check out the link below.

Did you grant it root access? Try going into SuperSU and resetting the default action for the app. What ROM are you on? I'm using Badboys and it's working fine.
I got it to work, Google and Facebook were syncing my contacts like crazy. Thanks for posting this!

Try rebooting your phone (so that no other apps are accessing your contacts database) and run photo unlocker really quick.

No dice. Even tried turning off sync and rebooting. Thanks though.

I didn't even notice there was an issue with contact photos until I saw this thread.
Anyway, this didn't work for me, either. I tried the same things, multiple times. No dice.
I decided to install HaxSync instead and now everything is fine. Its a paid app, but works great. I bought it a long time ago for my Moto Photon, when it couldn't sync contact photos with Facebook on CM9.
