Since I updated to KitKat I've started to use the new feature in Hangouts which let's you send GIFs. It has now happened at least twice that I have lost the actual file I have sent to someone on Hangouts without deleting it myself.
I can't say for certain that it's Hangouts that makes it disappear, but both times it has happened after I recently sent the file to someone. Also I'm using Solid Explorer and I might have sent the files using the share function of that app.
Anyone know what can cause this?
EDIT: Forgot to say that I'm using ART.
Thanks

Had this happen quite a few times.....sometimes when I click on the messaging app it opens up a random app that I have open in the background.....can't seem to fix it...occured on both launcher pro and adx or w/e the other launcher app is called....any solution?
This has been reported before. I remeber once, someone had set a swipe function accidentaly on their messaging app shortcut in the dock, and that was the culprit. I also remember this happening to people on touchwiz launcher, but it's never happened to me. If the swipe thing isnt the problem, the I would reccomend downloading an app such as Handcent sms, go sms, or chomp sms. Hope something in this post helps you.

Have you tried restarting? I know it sounds stupid but a lot of weird glitches can be solved by a simple reboot. If that doesn't help a cache/davlik wipe might.
Texted while driving
A restart does fix it....in fact an task manager end all works as well....just kinda annoying. If it happens again ill try a different SMS and see if I have better luck.
Normally this only happened on DI18, I never saw it happened after the 2.2 builds came out.

this is quite annoying, sometimes I have to hit the back hit hundreds of times, backing out of my entire history of the day at times. It happens with other apps too. But messaging is my most used one. I think it is related to holding home, and selecting the text app while in another app.
I've had this issue too... welcome to samdroid, the beautiful world where samsung has changed everything and broke it
Happens to me all the time to. Have to reboot. Only started after 2.2 never on 2.1. Wish someone could look into this as I know nothing about phone software. I did not use the ota to update I did a .exe update so it was clean.

I've experienced inside the messaging app, it'll sometimes open up somebody else's conversation. I believe it's just a glitch or my phone lagged at the time I pressed the screen. Good thing I notice it before I sent unnecessary texts. haha
Hey all, newbie to the forums and didn't see a thread anywhere so I started one.
I'm running my dx with apex 2.0 and if it makes a difference, I have the tbh tether patch flashed.
Anyway, I installed the google+ app and now my phone shows incoming calls, but it does not ring out loud. However, it does ring for sms and alarms. I've narrowed it to google + app by restoring to a clockwork backup and testing it to see if it rings, and as soon as I reinstalled g+, I was again given the silent treatment on all incoming calls.
Anyone have any ideas?

I just did a test call...and I'm not experiencing the same thing.
Recently installed G+ myself.
(I'm on CM7.)
Download an audio manager or maybe check your incoming call volume in sounds?
I've no idea bud.
Thanks for the quick reply. But that's the problem i'm having is sound settings force closes on me when I try to open it . I'll try the audio manager, any recommendations?

I'm on Apex 2 RC3, I was getting DSPManager crashes a few days ago, but that's stopped since, probably due to a reboot. I'm assuming you went directly into the sound settings to verify they're correct, or is that actually what's crashing?
I had some weird issues with apex as well, I could call people but couldn't actually talk to them, I couldn't find a fix or fix it myself, it seems alot of people have random issues with apex, I don't know if its the rom itself or whether the g apps package is the issue, I ended up moving on to a different rom after I couldn't fix the phone issues as obviously I need that, I wish you luck in finding a fix

Sorry, haven't been on for a few days. But even after not installing g+, the issue has recreated itself so it looks like a titanium backup and re flash is coming tomorrow.
But to answer your question, the sounds settings is what crashes, I can't access anything within the menu.
Thanks for the replies, I'll post again if it happens after re flashing

Update: figured it out. For some reason it changed my default ringtone and would force close when I went to sound settings, but when I selected an mp3 file and set that file as a ringtone without using sound settings to do so, it seemed to clear up all my issues. Hope this helps someone

First I hope Im posting this in the right place, second Im not a regular in this forum as I have another device, however I need some assistance. My girlfirend has the Droid 2 and yesterday stated experiencing an issue with the default messaging app. It will only allow her to type in 1 word and then stops functioning. I thought maybe pull the battery and it goes away. But shes done that and the issue is still there, so then Im thinking that maybe she somehow got a virus? I ran a virus scan with Lookout (it was already installed) and it didnt come up with anything. I cant seem to convince her to use another SMS app just to try because she refuses to download anything else, she's stubborn and just wants the default app to work. Do any of you have any ideas? Shes talking about doing a factory reset which Im not sure it will help and she isnt rooted (Yet) and does not have Titanium Backup on the device. Im open to some ideas before she does that reset and loses her apps and what not...Thanks in advance!!

Thank you!!
So I finally found the source of the issue many of us are experiencing since the beginning of the JB leaks:
ISSUE: browser resets to External memory as the default storage for Downloads every boot.
CAUSE: I found a missspelled XML reference and spent hours decompiling the apk and correcting every reference to it BUT to my bewilderment the issue persisted.
Then I realised the app I use "Directory Bind" might be the cause.... yep! It is! And the fix is infuriatingly simple:
FIX: use System Tuner app to stop tjw Browser being loaded on Startup...
THATS IT!!!!!
EDIT: Maybe something else is causing the issue other than Directory Bind app. Please if you experience this issue, even if you don't use DB please share your feedback.
*** thank me if this helps you

Well I currently do not use directory bind but have disabled the stock browser "internet" on startup and now the download location is remembered thanks!
Also what did the spelling mistakes do if not fix this?

Great glad it helped!... I have NO idea actually I guess the references with wrong spelling were self consistent... very weird that there was the typo on the EXACT issue we are having "download_default_storyage" maybe I haven't actually fixed it and it is the source of the issue. I doesn't show up anymore in in shared pref.

Wow, 18 occurrences apparently. I don't think it's a mistake to be honest... It's even in the smali files.
Mine just isn't on my phone anymore. Don't have the slightest idea where it went. If I try going to them through the phone app, it force closes since it doesn't exist. So could someone puhleaaaase copy their apk for me?
