Try going into settings then go to applications manger and find the stock msg app and clear data then go to the msg app settings and scroll down to custom user agent and choose Nokia n95 options then reboot into recovery and wipe Dev cache reboot and it might work good luck

I ended up having to wipe everything and flash a sense rom - nothing else that I tried worked -
I had sense back on my phone for just over a day and couldnt wait to get back to a froyo rom -
i deleted all the froyo zips off my phone - then redownloaded all of them - wiped - flashed - and all good!

I've flashed my droid to a small Canadian network and have had a problem where i cannot receive texts, but the only way i found i can is if i run a sense rom, do you know what my problem could be?

[Q] Not receiving sms using CM6 and AOSP

I, for some reason, wasn't receiving any text messages. I put stock back on and about 15 or so downloaded shortly after first boot.
What may have prevented sms from being received on the custom roms?

It seems to be an issue for some people as I have experienced it as well.
Froyo Powered HTC Hero

Just wanted to chime in since I was searching google for this issue. I have an evo and I've had this issue as well for the past two days on CM6 and a sense based rom so if you have sprint this may be an issue with them rather than the rom. I have yet to find an answer myself.

I did find the issue and it is a sms/mms database issue and can be resolved by deleting a file (which is immediately recreated and fixed). I found the answer (and regrettably didn't keep the link) in the CM 6.1 discussion thread.
Thanks for the replies.

Can you point me to that thread I'm having the same problem... Not seeing it.

Make sure your prl is current.

Backup your current ROM, wipe everything, and flash a Sense ROM. Reboot and update PRL and Profile. Then wipe everything in recovery and restore your custom ROM.

What is a "prl"? Sorry I am a nuub. I have CM6 flashed to my hero and have had it for around 6 or 7 months but all of the sudden I am not receiving SMS. I had read that if you were getting the "low space" msg that could be a cause but I cleared the space and I am still not receiving them. Any help would be appreciated.

You need to flash back to a sense based rom, then go to something like
settings > about phone > software version > system update
It should be clear from where you are what you are doing at that point, update your profile and prl from there and then go back to cm6.

Where can I get a sense based rom. I don't believe that I kept a copy before.

CyanogenMod 9 ICS for Captivate Q&A(Unofficial)

This thread is for the support of CM9 ICS release by CyanogenMod
This is NOT an official CyanogenMod thread, and isn't officially supported by CyanogenMod or Teamhacksung.
This thread is designed to help keep the dev thread clean and clear for the dev's to do their magic. So please feel free to ask any questions about the ROM, but flaming will not give great results and will be reported
The main CyanogenMod CM9 ROM thread is HERE
The Nightlies can be found here
GAAPS can be found here
Look for 'gaaps-ics-********-signed.zip'
Modems for ICS:
http://soggycashew.weebly.com/cm7miui--ics-modems.html
Modem Coverage Map:
http://soggycashew.weebly.com/modem-location-map.html
ONLY USE THE MODEMS MADE FOR CM7/Miui/ICS.
Give the ROM thread and this one a good read before you post, you may find the answer is already available. Keep in mind that each device may behave slightly different, so YMMV
People have found different ways to successfully install, and it works for them, but their method may not work for everyone. So it is highly suggested to follow the method recommended by the developers.
This is copied directly from the dev OP:
"-First time flashing ICS to your Captivate (or coming from another ROM)?
1. Root your device and install ClockworkMod Recovery.
2. Reboot into Recovery using 3-button-combo
3. Do a Nandroid backup!
4. WIPE (wipe data/factory reset + wipe cache partition)
5. Install the ROM from internal sdcard using ClockworkMod Recovery
6. Optionally install the Google Addon
7. WIPE again or Calendar Sync will not work
-Upgrading from CM7?
1. Do a Nandroid Backup!
2. WIPE (wipe data/factory reset + wipe cache partition)
3. Install the ROM from internal sdcard using ClockworkMod Recovery
4. Optionally install the Google Addon
-Upgrading from another CM9 (or teamhacksung) Build?
1. Do a Nandroid Backup!
2. Install the ROM from internal sdcard using ClockworkMod Recovery
3. Optionally install the Google Addon
Note: The upgrade process from CM7 to ICS is automatic, but downgrading from ICS to CM7 (or restoring Nandroid) requires flashing twice. Once from ICS and again from CM7's recovery."

Reporting Bugs
You are allowed to report bugs ONLY in the Development thread. Before reporting a bug, please make sure you are running as stock as possible. This means no custom kernel, no custom framework modification, etc. If you are using any of the above modifications, please flash the rom again to get rid of the modifications before reporting.
Grab a logcat right after the problem has occurred.
If it is a random reboot, grab /proc/last_kmsg. (Do not bother getting a logcat unless you can get it just before the reboot. A logcat after a reboot is useless)
Remember to provide as much info as possible. The more info you provide, the more likely that the bug will be solved. The following is a useful format to follow.
Thanks to the entire CyanogenMod Team for creating their magic for our aging Captivates!

I just registered so I can't post in the development thread... I hope this is the next best place...
I flashed build 3 of the ICS ROM and the DNS, at least for wifi, seems hardcoded to 8.8.8.8. I changed it to my local DNS ('su', 'setprop net.dns1 192.168.1.1'), checked that I could ping a local name, turned wifi off and on again, and it had gone back to 8.8.8.8. I'm new to Android so I don't know whether there's a way to set it harder, but I had expected that it would get the DNS servers from DHCP... that is definitely what stock Gingerbread and CM7 both did.
Hopefully some kind person will pass this message on to the developers... I am not sure whether this is the wifi DNS update issue listed in the Known Issues on the dev thread but if so maybe that should be marked confirmed

What should i do before flashing this rom? I'm currently with gal net miui. I assume that's cm7? So should i just flash after wipe? Or go back to stock first?
Sent from my I897 using XDA App

it states to wipe data and cache, then install from miui or CM7, no need to return to stock. Some run it better than others, mines running just fine with their release 3

Glitch kernel let me OC to 1.4!

Thanks flashman that worked.

Dunno if anyone else has this issue but both mornings since flashing, I've woken up to an unresponsive touchscreen. clicking the hard button brings up the lock screen and everything looks right but it's just unresponsive to touch. I've had to fiddle with the hard buttons to be able to use the touchscreen again.

When finding things wrong with this build, you do have to realize that it's not even a beta yet, and things are gonna be slow/broken/or not integrated yet. I'm sure the devs will add all this stuff once the basic framework is solid. And like someone else stated, the best way is to go from CM7. It's very easy. I can even flash back and forth no hassle

Camera
Is there a zoom on this camera?

after updating (after clearing the phone again) to build 5, i get more errors than with build 3. Gonna go back and try it again.

Two issues in build 5, calendar issues, no sync. Tried custom apk's, no luck with that. Reflashed gappsv5 still no good. Was working on build3 with gapps v4.1. Also anyone able to get their facebook account to sync. Try adding facebook account and just nothing...

Having market download issues, even with free apps it just hangs on the downloading line. Wipe cache and reflashed GAPPS v.5 and it still is having issues. I was able to download World of Goo last night but nothing good this AM. Any other suggestions that may work?

I am also was having market issues. What helped me was making them download to phone from the market website. It helped a bit. And yes, the Facebook sync seems broken

I had the same calendar sync problem. Did a wipe, flashed build 5, immediately flashed Gapps v5.1 before rebooting, and that fixed it for me.

any specific kernel? where do I pick up just the kernal? just moved from cm7 nightly b181

FB sync doesn't work on ICS at all so I wouldn't expect a quick fix. I downloaded the friendcaster app and used that to sync with my contacts.

You don't need to flash a kernel for this. At least it's a very bad idea in this stage of development. But if you need it for some other purpose, it's in the OP of the ICS thread

Challenging problem!

Hi all, i had a problem today. will explain in detail.
Background-
2 days back i flashed elol's ice cold sandwich AOKP 8.4.
»it was a little laggy and chrome was a real pain.
» so i followed the development section and as suggested flashed to CK's kernel .4d yesterday, but before that, did a nandroid backup, fortunately.
» also in the same topic it was suggested to remove 001-zram swap, so i did it.
»at the same time i installed titanium backup and lucky patcher and extracted old SMS from the old ROM (CM7.2) and restored it in this current ROM (ICS AOKP)
The Problem
I noticed that my DATA CONNECTION was neither working nor showing in the notification. I checked it in setting it was turned on, also wifi and call were working absolutely fine. reboot was not helpful.
So i restored from yesterday's backup and reflashed .4d kernel then deleted 001-zram swap again but this time data is working fine, only once it was gone but came back after reboot.
THE QUESTION
» What was the cause of the problem?
»its there any chance of recurrence of the problem?
»any suggestions for the improvement in manipulations i have done?

Can't boot CyanogenMod 9 on Motorola Milestone!

Hey guys, I'm having a problem
Sorry if I'm posting this in a wrong area
Well, I'm using CyanogenMod 7.2.0 stable by Kabaldan for Milestone A853. Then I tried to install CyanogenMod 9 Nightly (from Skrilax build bot), the latest version. Everything was going well, then when I tried to boot, a screen about "Android is updating applications" appeared, and then after updating, the phone hard rebooted, back to the M logo. Then I left it booting again, and it rebooted again, though this time the update screen didn't appeared. Sometimes I get the first screen to appear, but I can't even touch the phone because it reboots before I try to do so. I tried installing CyanogenMod 10 (Skrilax nightly build bot again) and the same error happened! What is happening to my phone? I've never found anyone with this problem
Please help me! Thanks.

Did you perform a full wipe before applying CM9/10?

If by full wipe you mean the three wipe options in OpenRecovery (Dalvik, Data and Cache) then yes. I even deleted the /system folder and nothing!
UPDATE: I tried to install CM10, removed system, data and cache through ADB and dalvik cache, installed CM10 and gapps. When booting, the first screen asking for language rapidly appears, and reboots. I tried to boot again, then I rapidly touched the screen when the screen appeared, and it didn't reboot! Well, that's better, but CM10 is too lagged for daily use, that's why I want to install CM9!

I'm using CM10 from couple of days..
I get enough RAM to run apps that I daily use...check for unwanted apps that are not being used, disable it through hwa setting app. Just use it for a day .. IMO CM10 is better than CM9.
BTW I removed gtalk, maps, email, exchange service and other unwanted apps from OR...which I don't use at all..

If nothing solves your problem, you should reflash the SBFs and start all over again. I had to do this sometimes. Formatting the SDCard (after backing-up your personal data) also helps to prevent this from ocurring.

Well, never mind, I was robbed saturday. Thanks for the help folks

Sad! But it's a chance to get a better phone. Good luck!

and BPSW for 2.1.1 is needed? or optional?

It's optional.
You only have to wipe data,dalvik-cache and data (you will lose all your information, so backup everything) and to create an ext partition on your sdcard.

yeah I know, I read the dev thread but can't make replies there. I am now on CM10 from 09/24 (last 4.1.1) and considering about CM10 4.2 but I was little bit confused about BPSW. And will there be problem If I will uprgade from 2.2? Because I don't have nandroid backup of 2.1

(FYI, the current CM10 is based on Android 4.1.2.
4.2 will be the next version of Android and probably CM11 will be based on it.)
Anyway, i upgraded from 2.2 to 4.0.4 and then to 4.1.1 and now 4.1.2.
I believe you can upgrade from 2.2 to 4.1.2 without any problem.
(but always make a nandroid before upgrading)

Yes, it's perfectly possible upgrade from 2.2 Stock ROM, although it's more difficult to root it.
I did it without any problems.
Is there any difference between upgrading from 2.1 or from 2.2?

Yeah, sorry for that mistake, my fault. I upgraded from 2.2 to 4.0.4 and now I have 4.1.1. I tried to upgrade to 4.1.2 from 4.1.1 but it was laggy (10/16 and 10/17) so I restore it back to 4.1.1 which is pretty stable and I will wait to better time for this upgrade, because it is my main phone and my boss is upset when I am not available when he calls me

I've read somewhere, that one must upgrade to 2.2 because upgrading from 2.1 will cause problem with some hardware module.

Kabaldan is working on it. It seems, if the CPU's clockspeed is under 600MHz, then something is wrong with the GPU performance. (So you should consider using Performance CPU governor.)

I know that someone wrote it in dev thread for CM9 or CM10, but my battery is pretty weak, I am glad that with Juice defender it lasts for 12 hours and Performance governor is pretty aggressive to battery drain. Anyway thanks for answering my nooby questions
