SMS issue

Hi,
After installing a new custom ROM (I don't know the name of it, and can't seem to find the original file), when texting someone, the screen jumps to the very top of the messaging thread. Which makes it very difficult to edit or proof read what I'm typing.
I'm pretty certain the ROM matters, and I'm currently looking into it. However, it is one that strips Android down to the bare minimals removing sprint apps etc.
Does anyone know how to resolve this issue?
Thanks!

How do you flash a ROM and not which one it is?
BTW, go to phone info and you'll probably find the name of the ROM

I flashed it a while ago and don't recall the name.
Here's the software information in settings:

Any ideas? I was wondering if there are different versions of the stock messaging app?

Friend that pic is a bit small. I would do a full wipe and flash a new Rom. I use amon ra with great results.

try this...
Use root explorer, and make sure it is set to R/W mode (read/write).
Navigate to /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/telephony.db and delete that file, then restart your phone.
After the restart, you should be able to send and receive MMS messages.
Hope this helped ya, worked like a charm for me!

[Q] New And Need Help

Hey Guys What's Up !!!!!!!
I an new so try not to bash me to hard.
I am trying to flash a custom rom to my AT&T Galaxy S 4 (SGH-I337) running Android 4.3 Baseband Version MK2
without any success at all.
I have root, I used saferoot and rootchecker says I have root as well as other apps, I also have rom manager premium v5.5.3.7. And paid for the touch option And here is where everything goes south.
No matter what I do when the phone reboots into recovery mode it boots into the standard android system recovery mode.( Manual Mode)
I see no clockwork anything.
I am dead in the water. Please Help.
The only modification other than root that I have done to the phone is change the tetherprovision.apk files with one I found out here
to reenable tethering. It worked like a champ (Sweet Thanks For That).

You would have better assistance here: AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting
Anyways aside from addressing thread maintenance to staff, to my understanding you cannot flash a ROM for the AT&T S4 MK2 bootloader. The bootloader is locked and thus making it impossible to flash a ROM. There is however a Safestrap Recovery recovery for your device but no ROMs.

The only recovery available for MF3 and MK2 i337 is Safestrap here:

You can only flash 4.3 touchwiz roms. No AOSP or such. The number roms that you can install is also currently limited.

It looks like you tried to flash a phone.apk or a dialer app that isn't stock. You didn't say what phone version you have (your signature mentions GT-I9505?) This forum is for the I337 variants. My suggestion would be to try and find the same version of firmware / ROM that you are currently using and see if you can get the correct phone.apk or dialer apk out of it and try to restore that way. Depending on you phone model and firmware, you might be able to restore with a nandroid (if you have one). If your bootloader is locked you might need to restore via ODIN and the proper firmware. Most thing you do will run the risk of wiping your data and contacts so back everything up first before you try anything to be on the safe side. If you don't understand the things I mentioned or if you don't know where to find something I suggest you use the forum's search function to find the information and tools you need. Good luck.

see two symbols of battery, you were trying or tried to do for that to happen, and if you can tell the model of your phone, greetings

Soon to get S4 I9505 (Build: NC8) - Requesting Recoveries / ROM information

In a few days, I might pick up a Samsung Galaxy S4 (I9505) with build number that ends with NC8. I recently got aware of the recent samsung builds that prevents recoveries, though I am aware of the safestrap method. I've been looking and searching through a few threads (and google results) regarding with what build number I'll be getting, what I can do with it. (Normal recovery or safestrap method) but so far I only get information regarding MDL, MF3, MK2, etc.
I was wondering if someone could pin-point me to the right direction to what exactly I can and cannot do with this build. I'd appreciate it. Here's an image of the version I'll be getting.

It's a dutch version by the way.

Safestrap is not for your device. That's for the at&t version. You have the I9505 thus there is no protection what so ever (besides Knox).
The build number is not important for rooting or flashing custom recovery. Just use cf auto-root and you will be fine. Pick the recovery you want and flash away.

Awesome, thanks for the quick responds! I appreciate the information, as I'd prefer not to screw things up. Guess I didn't pay attention enough to the "AT&T" version. Though I find it a bit strange that they enforce a better security on 1 (or more) version(s) over the other, while it's the same device.
But I assume it has to do with the country / and their laws.

Touchscreen went stupid after rooting

So I rooted my Note 4(N910P) yesterday. I then flashed CWM. I get on my ROM to test root, then reboot into CWM to test and make sure it works fine. I go to click on the navigation buttons at the bottom and they do not respond. I figured "whatever, must be a bug or something" and I reboot back into the ROM. I go to use my phone and the touch is 'off'. If you look at the screenshot below, the touch test one, I marked white Xs where my finger is actually at on the screen. Look at the number for the dark grey one, it is over 1440. It seems that after rooting, my device now thinks I have a 1480x2560 screen(touch wise). I'm at a loss as to why. My S Pen works fine, though.
What I have done to try and fix this-
Tried a custom kernel as someone mention an issue with a kernel/driver that a custom kernel may fix.
Tried to go back to 'vanilla' aside from the tick on knox, of course.
Custom ROM at one point, even.
Tried removing and pulling the battery and MicroSD card.

Some links to other Note branded devices with similar issues like a Note 3, Note 10.1, and a Note Pro 12.2.

Are you sure you flashed the correct file for your device?
