ok so I've been using cyanogen 6 stacker final build for a while now, and ever since I started the messaging app gives me problems.
Every time I open it up it does a force close. It used to only force close when I only tried to text one person in particular, but now its every time I try to open it.
I've moved on to handscent for all my messaging needs since as that makes it work no problem but I don't get picture messages and when I get a message, it'll still pop up with the force close message sometimes fir the stock messaging app.
I thought there was a problem with the install so today I just went and did a full data wipe and wiped all cache, then loaded a fresh copy of cm6 stable build. Got the phone back to normal with my settings and apps and the messaging app still force closes. Anyone have any ideas what is going on here. Its getting to be a huge pain and while handscent works and is better, the constant force closes is getting beyond annoying.

did you redownload the rom or use the same one as before
Since this obviously isn't a wide problem my guess would be something on your end.
Completely wipe everything and start fresh..Don't add anything once you get the ROM loaded. Start text messaging and see if it works. If it does then it has to be either a program you're adding or some data you're restoring.
Then start adding your stuff one by one and check the messaging app..Thats what I would do.
Yes I redownloaded the app and a wiped everything. Fresh install also. How do I prevent the market from redownloading all my apps once I open it for the first time?
I'll def try the adding one app at a time thing

Ok so I tried to do this and there are two options. One is backup data and that is now unchecked. The other is restore data. That one is greyed out. So if I try a new restore it just puts all the apps and settings back. How do I get it so I can unchecked restore data?
Also when I do a data wipe in among_RA how long should that take? Seems to be going very quick, like 5 seconds tops. Is this normal? For some reason I feel as if my problem is that something is not wiping when I do the wipe in recovery.
Any thoughts?

Ok go the data restore backup crap disabled. Updated to the lastest amon_RA version 1.8
Went into recovery and wiped everything and reinstalled the stable cm6 rom.
So far so good, but I go to the messaging app and same ****. I get force closes with one specific contact, once that happens it just starts its random force closes no matter what contact.
So what could this be? Is something not wiping correctly? Please anyone have any suggestions or help?

So again to note, I'm still having the force closes on a fresh install of cm6 no other apps installed from market. Nothing.

I'm the mean time, I went back to fresh rom 3.2 just to stop all the force closes in the messaging app. I really hate sense and its bloated self. There must be a solution.....
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Well I fixed it on my own. Was using fresh rom and stated to get some what similar problems with the one contact as before. So I un linked the contact from facebook, and completely deleted the contact all together. Then I made a new google contact and put in the mobile number and saved it. This time I did not link it to the facebook profile. Low and behold I have cm6 another shot this morning with a fresh wipe and install and all is well and working (so far) with no force closes.

My gallery worked fine when I had CM6 on my G2.
I have tried CM7 RC1, #7, and #32 or something like that and my gallery doesn't work for any of them.
By doesn't work I mean it fails to scan for media, and there are no photos in the gallery.
I have tried all the media scanners and rescanners on the Market, but they all stop scanning after 1 second, and does not do anything.
Also, when I browse for a picture via file manager and click on it, it takes forever to load, but when it does load, it first shows this weird wallpaper that is from the Cyanogen wallpaper pack for a brief half second then shows the picture i clicked on.
I don't know what's going on. This has been driving me INSANE. All I want to do is just to be able to set my wallpapers. I don't know how to do it without gallery.
Any help at all?
Thanks!
EDIT: "Are you certain that you don't have a file named ".nomedia" (the "." at the start makes it a HIDDEN file) in the directories with the media to scan?"
Yes I am certain I don't have that .nomedia in the directories of my photos.
EDIT EDIT: There was a .nomedia in the root directory of my sdcard so that is why it won't scan ANY folders. Thanks!

mate, I use 3D Gallery instead of the stock. not only will it scan and place in folders, it'll also pull your online Picasa pics. i used it on my stock Froyo (even though froyo uses a different version.. I found 3d gallery was actually the stock Eclair gallery) and I use it now on my CM7 Desire nightly (bravo11). works like a charm.
I use the one that came with ROM. Works great.

The one that came with the wrong doesn't work. And the 3D gallery doesn't work either. It says There are no items in your collection.
Reflash the nightly build. what build are you on?
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
I reflashed like 4 different ones. right now i'm back to RC1.
Thats weird. Perhaps something didnt wipe right?
Try QuickPic in the market. I use it alot now.
I wipe dalvic cache and perform a factory reset via CWM 3.0 each time i flash.
Quickpic says pictures not found. Is your SDcard mounted? And that made me think. Could it be something wrong with my SDcard? I mean, I can access stuff in it via Root Explorer...

When I press record my camcorder app crashes and sends me back to my home screen. This phone has never been rooted, pseudoROM'd or anything like that, and It was happening both before and after the OTA update.
Any ideas? I can take pictures fine D:
Do you have the imo.im app installed? I had that issue with my camcorder crashing (not loading) when I have imo.im running Had to uninstall it and find another messaging app *sigh*
Omg thank you! That was the problem

I'm having the same issue, but don't have IMO.IM installed. So, I started deleting (what I thought) might be related apps to no avail. So far I've deleted the following apps and rebooted:
Handcent
iMediaShare
Everything else seems to work fine. Could this be SD card related? Any other apps or ideas? THANKS to anyone who can help resolve this very annoying issue!
Have you frozen any apps in TiBu ? Happened to me once when I had frozen apps (I think mediagallery) and it would crash if I tried to view the file
Thanks for the tip but I didn't freeze any apps as far as I know. I changed camcorder settings to save internally instead of to card and it magically works -- gonna have to try exchanging my Lexmark 32 GB class 10 card.

Ok I am having a weird issue with my new Atrix.
I am having icons of stuff I downloaded and added to the home screens disappear randomly.
Everything was fine all day, then I just went into my phone and noticed 4 icons on one screen were missing. The apps are still installed, just gone off the home screen. Not all of them on that screen dissappeared, just some of them.
Has anyone else had this happen to them? If so, what did you do to fix it?
I've had my widgets disappear but not shortcuts. This usually only happens after a crash and random reboot. I flash different roms alot though so don't know if this is a stock problem.

Which launcher do you use? It used to happen to me on Go launcher. If I exited it from setting it would restart fine. Hasn't happened in a long time though.

I'm actually just running the stock launcher the Atrix comes with.
I would love to have the stock GB launcher like what comes on the Nexus S. But I don't think you can just download that from the market.
Go launcher is way better, I suggest you try it. ADW and Launcher pro also have free versions which are much better than motoblur.
Ive had this happen as well. My snes emulator was missing. My phone actually uninstalled it. Hadto reinstall through titanium backup.

This happens on my stock Atrix every now and then.
Between 1 and 4 icons disappear, always from the same screen.

Ya mine is happening on the screen one right from center. I am curious, the next time it happens I am going to move them to another screen and see if it still does it.
It doesn't happen all the time, just every once in awhile, but annoying just the same.
Just curious but are you removing your sd card or have these apps on the external sd card?

ya for me it's the same 3 icons in the same place.
Today I moved all my stuff to a different home screen to see what would happen, and it still did the same thing.
I don't know if this is a GB issue or not. My Atrix already had GB on it when I got it.
I wonder if trying a different launcher would help. I was hoping to avoid using a different run cause I am fine with the stock launcher. I am not sure what launcher to try out. I used to use LauncherPro when I still had a Captivate cause I think TouchWiz looks like it was designed by a 10 year old. But LP seems a bit dated, hasn't been updated in awhile and it just too plain.
I was looking at Go Launcher, that seems like a popular one which offers alot.
Go Launcher used to do this to me all the time. figured out it was happening when the screen was being redrawn going from landscape to portrait mode. each time I would switch modes some icons would be gone and some would come back. theyve fixed this bug finally though in the last couple of versions...
I think when you update an app there's a chance it does this. Im sure there's more to the story but I am stock and its doing as you described but on the left screen from center

I had this problem and it happened fairly often on reboots/power on. Mine wouldnt even show in the app drawer. Tracked it down to apps that were either installed in the Media Area (internal sd card) or External sd card. It usually happened if i started messing with the phone before everything fully loaded. If i waited a little they would eventually show up, sometimes.
If the problem apps are in the Media try moving them back and see if it still happens. I had a lot of apps in Media and external so I ended up doing a back up and then reformatting internal/external storage, then restoring. I haven't had the problem since, but i did move to GB and custom rom about 2 weeks afterwards, so that could have helped also.
I had a similar issue after unlocking my phone and installing a custom kernel. Revert to a lower version of pudding (unlock sbf file) and restore original kernel if u have one

I have version 2.35, and I'm having this exact problem. I checked for an update, but it's the most current version. Anyone know if a new one is on the way?
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
this has happened to me as well.
I noticed that it would happen after certain apps would automatically update.
once the apps update, they're gone from my home screens.
then it drives me crazy trying to figure out what shortcuts were where.
completely stock Atrix.

Ok some news to report.
I exchanged my Atrix for another one, and set up a new Motoblur account when I first booted the new phone.
Now for some reason my icons are not disappearing. It's been a day so far and everything is fine.
I don't now if it was the new phone or the new Motoblur account which made the difference. I am thinking it might be the new phone though.
If it starts happening again I'll post another reply.
I noticed that when I use heavy amount of apps, my browser simply wont work. I use the task manager to kill apps but no go. It just loads a white screen and must do a full restart. I like this tablet with full hdmi but might return it. Anyone else have this issue or fixes? Couldnt find it on search.

Yes, this is a common issue and it is due to incompatabilities between the apps and HC 3.2.1. The mount point was changed for the SDcard. the apps that try to cache to the SDcard are having issues. The browser is one of them. A lot of people are using Dolphin HD. They going into the settings and telling not to cache to the SDcard. It does not eliminate the problem, but seems to make it managable. It will take a change in the apps to fix the issue. Dolphin has a beta out that address this issue.
Thank you!
Sent from my MB855 using XDA App
Please note that the Dolphin beta does not address the problem. Periodic wiping of the cache is still required to prevent the browser from locking up.
According to the support email I got from Dolphin, the beta 7.2.1 has this issue corrected. And so far as I can tell, it has solved the problem.

Dolphin HD appears to have been fixed for the thrive, so far no lockups. The developers jumped on it and fixed our issue fast.
