Before I even begin, I was a nub didn't know much about rooting and did it anyways. I suppose I have learned it the hard way and now I must pay.
I rooted my phone and everything went fine.
Before knowing much about Titanium Backup Pro I instead of "freezing" application I have accidentally deleted some apps that I shouldn't have.
When I say my phone is messed up I don't mean not "operational"
I can still use it for day to day but for instant.
I deleted backup manager and now I can't even restore my backups from verizon online.
I also when I try to call somebody from my contacts list I get this error
The application Contacts Storage (process com.motorola.contacts) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.
I have random errors like that all the time.
I have unrooted and did a factory reset but to no avail.
Is there anything out there that could help get my phone back to the way it was when I received it?
I know its my fault for not learning but there must be something out there
Any help is appreciated.
When you first rooted, a backup is usually created. Go to your recovery and look for backup and restore and restore it.

Thanks for that quick response, could you be more specific about "Go to your recovery and look for backup" Where do I exactly go. Went around settings but couldn't find backup
There is no backup unless you made a backup.
And there's no recovery mode on the Droid 3 yet either.

So in other words you are saying I am screwed?
I requested before, but i think the thread got moved or removed to be redone in devl section... Can someone post a backup from Titanium BackUp of the stock apps that will be needed for those who have gone Delete-happy and removed some wrong stuff?
Just found this:

Thank you for the responses guys.
I have played with it but I can honestly say I have not been able to get it to work.
I have tried following the instructions, even bought Root Explorer but can still not figure it out.
I attached a picture of the error. I just can't seem to do anything to get it fixed. Also I was attempting to re-install backup manager without success.....
Anybody that can help out? Is there maybe an easier way to get back to defaults maybe somebody have an image or something of a stock operating system that could be copied? sorry I have no idea of this stuff yet still learning

make sure when you change owner to root you change the owner on the group as well.

Ok here is what I do. Let me know if I am doing ANYTHING wrong at all.
I load up root explorer and transfer my backupmanager.apk and .odex from ex-sdcard to /system/app
then I change the permission to r/w
press and hold the file and go to permission. There I set Owner to Read/Write and Group, Others just have read privilages.
Hold the file again. Then I scroll to the bottom to change owner and group to 0 - root...
Reboot...
The program doesn't appear in my apps? Anything I did wrong?
First off, you are doing it correctly. However, I'm not sure if backup assistant is even an app you can launch from the drawer. You have to launch the "My Accounts" app. Second, you can check if it worked by going into titanium backup, and looking for the app. If the name of the app is in red, then you did it correctly.
Hey thanks for that reply! I have looked into it and like you said, it was there in red but now I can't find the my accounts app all I can find is the my verizon wireless app and our doesn't have any backup functions from what I can tell.
Let me ask you this since you seen to be pretty knowledgeable. I have all the apps on my computer from that file above! Would I be able to just copy paste them with root explorer to /system/apps and then do a system factory restore would that work? Or do I have to manually find the apps I stupidly deleted and do it one by I've like I have been?

If you can't find the app, just go into Settings>Accounts.
As for your question: Unfortunately, it's not that easy (I would know, that's one of the first things I tried when I was fixing that contacts bug ). You would have to set the permissions and owners for every apk and odex file from the system dump. However, that contacts bug should've been fixed if you reinstalled those yahoo apps the same way you reinstalled the backup assistant.
Btw, you do know that backup assistant is pretty pointless since all of your contacts are synced with your Google account, right? People have reported no problems when removing the backup assistant app.
And thanks! I'm no android guru like many others here; just trying to help others with a similar problem that had me stumped for a good hour.
Thanks again. I've located the app but it still gives me troubles and not bein able to sync with the online server please call *811 or something like that. The only reason why I care its because I actually did backup all my contacts to the backup client but couldn't get them back on the phone now! I figured it out last night with syncing to gmail and it worked but still trying to get it back to normal. I will just have to do the rest manually haha! Appreciate it a lot!

I got that error message even without root with all of the system apps in place. Backup Assistant is just a poorly-coded app.
I'm pretty sure you didn't do much damage to your phone. I mean, as long as you didn't remove any other authenticators or other apps that blur needs in order for it to function, you should be fine just reinstalling the yahoo apps I told you about. After all, that looks like it's the only error you're getting.
And no problem.
Alright so now I need urgent help!
I went through the entire applications that I was missing and I gave them all permission etc. Rebooted my device and now I am stuck in this screen.
It's an endless loop because I get the error message and can't exit out of it.
Anything that can be done at all?
Haha, oh wow. I knew I wasn't the only one with that problem. Accounts loved to crash on me whenever I reset my phone. You can fix this one of two ways: hold the search button on your phone until it launches voice search. Say anything; as long as it launches the browser, you'll be fine. Once the search is performed, search for an apk for another home launcher. The accounts app basically hijacked your home button, so you'll need another launcher in order to get your home button back.
The second way involves using the desk dock. If you have one, then go into productivity mode. There should be an app drawer there. Open up the market, and install the launcher of your choice.
Once again, I had this problem even before root, so I'm not sure what the cause for this was.

I don't know what I would do without you lol... I was searching google like wild for droid 3 recovery but there is literally NOTHING out there.
Also let me ask you this. If I do a factory reset. Do I have to re-do the whole application proccess to give them permissions or should they be right now
Once it's a system app, it will always be a system app, even after resetting the phone. You should be fine.

So I tried doing the factory reset. Everything went smooth and I was hoping that my phone would be back to the old phone.
I am at the Welcome to DROID 3 screen. Tap on the little green guy, get to the motorola screen from before and same damn error. Except this time, I can't even try to use the voice or search buttons, none of them work.....
What now? I feel so stupid right now
I'm not sure how many people moved from the Nexus 4 to the HTC One, but if you have, I'm sure you've used Google Plus/Picasa to sync your photos on stock Google. If you're like me, you even deleted those photos off your Nexus 4, but the gallery app still gave you full access to them, as if they were on your phone (sharing, viewing, and even editing cloud [Picasa/G+] based photos).
My issue now is that I'm not able to do any of this. I'm able to access my G+ albums through the stock gallery app on the HTC One, but that's about it. I can't see my camera roll, I can't edit the photos, I can't share them, etc. There is a clear distinction between the photos that are actually on my phone vs. the ones on my G+ account. Is there a way to overcome this?
I've already looked into getting the 4.2 camera/gallery apk, but I would apparently have to root my phone, which would mean starting over and deleting all my data. Any tips?

I was considering this, but I'm waiting for stock Android to have IR support before ditching Sense. Anyways, XDA recently released the live wallpaper and camera APKs for the Google Play HTC One/S4, and I installed them. Voila! I have the stock gallery/camera apps! Problem solved
P.S. I was shocked that they worked since my phone is completely stock, not rooted or anything! I read before that the phone needed to be rooted and the camera/gallery apk must be put into the system folder, but all I did was put the APK in my dropbox, allow untrusted sources, and click it directly from my dropbox on my phone. It installed and everything is working perfectly!

I just checked. It works perfectly fine for me (stock Rogers HTC One, not rooted). I even went into the gallery, and after a second or two of "rendering...," the panorama showed up perfectly. It's probably a CM issue.
when ever I get a phone call I get a contact force close
Me too.

Same here. I even cleared the data for the contact storage and contacts thru the apps setting and it did not fix it.
Another me too. Doesn't happen every to be (I don't think...), but does happen.
Same here man! All ouuta nowhere!
I'm having the same issue. Not every time but I notice it when somebody calls me. Are any of you rooted on a debloated image? I figured that was the case for me since the one I'm using has stripped all Verizon and non essential apps out.

The force close started 2 weeks ago. I have the same apps installed no new ones. I wonder if google or Motorola updated something in the background or server side. Who knows...
Three days have past and no force close. I havent uninstalled anything or cleared contact cache. Anyone still experiencing the force close or did it go away?
Same here! Incredibly annoying.
I fixed mine by disabling Google+. Ever since I uninstalled it I haven't had any more force closes of contacts.

The problem with disabling is if you use Google Photos to backup photos, your stuck with the error because disabling Google+ removes Photos.
VZW Nexus 6, unlocked, unencrypted, stock rooted 5.1.1 with Wugfresh's NRT. Access point is LTE - Verizon Internet VZWINTERNET. I have AdAway installed, but have had it disabled in order to troubleshoot. I don't use the MOAB host but I whitelisted mms.vtext.com just to be safe. Also tried a couple of different access points to no avail.
While in Messenger if I tap the paperclip to add an attachment, all options except Google Photos work. When I try to attach a photo from Google Photos, the displayed thumbnail is blank and the spinning search indicator goes on indefinitely. If instead I open Google Photos, select a photo to share via Messenger, it works fine.
One other piece of info. After I get tired of watching Messenger endlessly search for a Google photo, I back out, clear recents and go into Google Photos to send that way, but my attempt to attach from Messenger corrupts something in Google Photos, so I have to force stop it to get it to function normally.
I've force stopped, cleared cache and data for both Messenger and Google Photos multiple times, but nothing seems to work.
The only thing that does work is reverting to the factory install of Messenger. If I do that, everything works as it should.
Anybody have this problem?
Thanks.
Try a file explorer (ES is my choice) and click the share button. There should be an option to share it via Google Messenger. That should insert it into the convo. Also make sure your SMS/MMS settings are correct along with the APN. If none of this works, try uninstalling/reinstalling Messenger, and then clearing the cache/dalvik, and try again. Hope this helps.

As stated, all of the options (to include my file explorer--root explorer), recents, dropbox, etc. do work. It's Google Photos that's not working properly. Also keep in mind, that the option to use Google Photos allows me to attach photos from the cloud, which is what I'm unable to do...so a file explorer is not optimal in this case.
SMS/MMS settings have been checked, and as I also stated, I'm using Verizon's preferred APN, but I have also tried others without success.
Although I didn't mention above, is that I have uninstalled and reinstalled both Google Photos and Messenger without success. The only thing that did work was reverting to the factory install of Messenger, but that's not optimal.
Clearing cache and Dalvik is useful so I'll give that a try, but I'm not hopeful.
Are you, or anyone else able to duplicate this problem without reverting to the factory install of Messenger? Thanks.
I had that problem. I never ran completely stock & rooted from the box. But I had similar problems with the stock sms/mms app using custom roms. I finally installed Textra on the advice of others & since then have never experienced a problem, so I never looked back. But others told me it was the stock app which is at fault. Why it works for most & not for some - I got no idea. I also consider Textra to be a step up in many areas vs stock. I use Titanium Backup & freeze the stock app also.

Anyone ever get this resolved? I'm experiencing the same. Running Nexus 5 stock, unrooted.
Still not working for me even after updating the factory image to account for Stagefright. During the update I took the opportunity while unrooted to try again (this was after a factory reset)....didn't work. Then rerooted and tried again...still a nogo. Same symptoms as my OP. Here are a couple of shots:

hi, first You have to downgrade to 131. After that You can update but .... sometimes ( once a day) You have to uninstall Google Services ( clear data ect. ) and install again, same with Google framework ( clear data, stop service, uninstall and install) sometimes You have to do it only one time, sometimes few times. However when google Play magicly discover that You have old google services Play stops working, but everything else work ( gmail, calender, youtube, android auto, ect.) And this is my question, yestarday I've discovered that when I install new google services everything is working but I get info about not certifie phone ( this device is not google certify ). Has anyone discovered method how to avoid this ?

Youtube notifications work, dunno though if there is any delay on them, I am only receiving notifications from my subscribed channels..
Gmail notifications are the only ones not working properly, meaning there is a big delay on the notification.. I would put my Gmail in the email app of the phone, or even outlook (outlook works for sure coz I am receiving maybe 1000emails per day at work hahah)
That aside, all other Google notifications work, I am being notified for weather, news, etc..
The only thing I cannot make work is the usual Google cards feed which I was used to in my previous phone (by swiping to the left home screen)

May i suggest to try out IceBox, (with shizuku to replace root) for this purpose. I don't have the phone myself, but reading this it seems perfect for exactly this.
Shizuku can allow apps like IceBox and AppOps to function without the need of root or manual adb actions, and IceBox allows you to automatically freeze apps after usage again and launch them from the homescreen icon directly, automatically unfreezing it and freezing it again after you stop using it.

Nah, IceBox just needs a method to access the secure settings. This can be done with either root, Island delegated god mode or shizuku.
Root is out of the picture for huawei, island would be relatively easy to setup since huawei does not use the multi-user interface AFAIK. Minimal chance of data loss.
Shizuku just need developer options enabled and Wireless ADB enabled if you want to use it without a pc, or alternatively just over a regular usb/ADB connection. I'm using IceBox on my stock OnePlus 8 Pro with shizuku. Never lost any data and took like 30 seconds to setup, no pc involved

I may try Shizuku to see if it works. It will just save me from the hassle to plug my phone to my work pc every week to update it.. [emoji23] I think that after every reboot you have to do the same procedure, correct?

I do not want to reset, downgrade again or to donsometging every reboot.
It would be nice for a new method.
