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!

Fake mail app update on Market (I mean Google Play)

Today I found an update .. it's in Russian (I'm not) and it seems to be update to email app. It can be downloaded and installed, based on comments (I did not do it). Looks like malware .. any ideas how is that possible ?
It says MTC mobile mail (but in russian) by OJSC Mobile Telesystems.

Got the same thing too on my play market, I felt that there is something fishy with it, so I didn't update till I figure out what exactly it do.

Forgot to mention that I'm on stock rom, didn't root or install any custom roms, yet.
I'd advise everyone not to update and report the app to Google so they remove it from the app store.

I've seen that. I have also "testfile" app installed on my SGS2. I did not install that. Cannot uninstall, only "open" option available. Any ideas what that is?

please help me

Instead of using OTA, you can manually flash your phone to 4.4.2 using the stock Google rom.

You'll need to unlock the phone's bootloader and reboot before continuing.

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.

Phone
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

I want to solve this problem :'(

Looks like you're device is spamming "by itself". Must be some kind of malware/spyware that's causing it. A factory reset should fix it or a clean ROM install aster wiping everything. Don't forget to backup

Before you go through a full reset/clean install, you should install and run some very good add detector apps (from playstore, pick a good one focusing on adds, not a popular virus thingy crappy app).
At least you would know what the problem is so you don't repeat the same mistakes. No point doing a clean ROM install and re-installing your spam making app.
Good luck.
