my phone suddenly stuck on logo and it was STOCK...so i rooted it and flaash custom rom without wipe...now i have 0 contacts ((((( ....0 messages....i don't even remember my google password...how i can recovery all of these? PLSSS
Recover your google account password to see if you can sync them back. Otherwise, that's it, you don't have a backup, so not sure what you want to do.
I thought I can find a way to restore them because I didn't deleted anything... Just flashed another rom....

Flashing a custom rom without wipes is usually a no go. If you didn't end up with a bootloop it's most probably because the zip made the necesary wipes, or it deleted the stock messaging and contact apps before replacing them with the rom's own apps.

Perhaps it's a blessing that it wiped. Dealing with a bloop would be harder imo

Yeah lol.
I lost all contacts when I sold my old phone without backing up contacts.
But if you had the sim on non-android phone before (like me), maybe some of the contacts are still stored there?

if i uninstall the system application like facebook or twitter, etc, and one day decide to restore with factory data reset, will it come up again?

Are you on stock rom or custom ROM.
IF you are on stock rom then you cannot uninstall stock apps.
If you uninstall them somehow then also factory/data reset wont bring them back.

Download the app called 'AppSaver' from the market. It backs up the .apk files of all the apps on your phone and stores them on the SD card. So whatever you do with the phone, the .apks are always there on the SD card and you can install all the apps again, without downloading them from the market.
P.S. the app takes backup of only the .apk and not the data. Eg: If you back up Angry birds, it just backs up the .apk and the levels/scores you achieved would not be backed up.

you can be rooted and still be using the stock rom. in that case, just install titanium backup or root uninstaller, both of which give you the option to uninstall stock apps
I've just flashed SuperNexus and backed up all my apps + data for the first time, it's going through each app one by one on the installation, I assumed it would do it all in one go, is this normal? or have I done it wrong haha?
edit2: after restoring apps + data I just keep getting spammed with messages like "unfortunately, the process android.process.acore has stopped" when I try open contacts, phone etc it says the same message, halp what have I done wrong? my phone keeps crashing cause of everything not working
i cant send a text or anything! even when I receive calls it comes up, some apps work fine and the data is there but most important functions just do not work, can anybody please help me ?

You might try going in recovery and wipe cache and dalvik cache, fix permissions and reboot.
Don't restore system data, and to batch restore apps you need the pro version
I just wiped the caches and nothing changed. If I reflash and restore just apps will I lose the data for the apps? Like saves etc

No, you can restore user apps and it`s data. You will not loose anything.

Yes, but you should be okay to restore data for the apps, but don't restore system data across roms.

I just reflashed and just did missing apps + data and all works fine, my save game on final fantasy 3 is still there
Good job I saved contacts to SIM or it would of been annoying, thanks everyone!
I thought I bricked it last night too lol, I was flashing "UltimaROM" and was instructed to wipe the phone with his custom installer using Super Wipe. I did that and it just froze, was making no progress at all so I turned it off. It kept rebooting over and over and wouldn't get into recovery mode for ages but it eventually did.
Can anybody answer my kernal question? Is it safe to flash a custom kernal after ROM? I only ask because I read somewhere certain kernals/rom flashing causes a "brick bug" or something

Hi all.
I was uninstalling unnecessary applications from my phone yesterday using root file delete and it seems I deleted something wrong so now my TwLauncher keeps crashing.
I downloaded another Launcher (which is not a very nice interface) temporarly because I was told that clearing cache from TwLauncher in settings would fix the problem but it did not. TwLauncher still crashing.
I re-installed TwLauncher from a file I found in another posts again it crashed, and tried installing TwLauncher 4.5, after istallation it also keeps crashing!!!
Please help I need TwLauncher to be good again and not crash coz other Launchers suck.
Factory reset. If that doesn't work, re-flash the rom you're currently running.

Go to Settings>Applications>All>TwLauncher

You should make backup before you start deleting apps. Never would you get into this situation.

Best post I've seen here this week. Wise words indeed. These phones are essentially mini PC's nowadays, fail to backup regularly at your peril (people who don't backup regularly always seem to be the people who really need them/could have done with one).
Is there any way of doing that without installing a ROM again or doing factory reset???
Even when I install a new TwLauncher 4.5 it still crashes..
any tips?

*Sigh* I think you're missing a trick here, you may lose your files/messages but the point is, if you also make a BACKUP of those, it doesn't matter if you do or don't.

for messages u can use 'SMS backup pro' app, and for apps u can use 'Mybackup' or 'Titanium backup' apps (which require root permission though)

1. U can flash complete ROM using Odin and wipe data & dalvik from cwm. (u will loose messages & applications, but it'll work fine after that)
2. Never Uninstall/Install anything unless u are very sure about that. Uninstalling required apps can lead to this.

So, my x10 crashed 2 months ago and I'm really eager to recover the contacts from the phones memory. Have tried searching for a way to do this but so far I haven't. The phone is stuck in a reboot loop, but I hope the data is still there to be recovered somehow. The only backup I have is a 5month+ old .sbf file, and I'm having trouble restoring the contacts from that on my new phone.
I KNOW now, that I maybe should have backed up more frequently to google (last done in december 2011..) but the sbf file is what i have that is recent. Any suggestions/threads/tools for this?

If your phone is backed up with your google play account then you should just use the email in another phone and you will restore your contacts if not then not so likely

I hope You have root and USB debugging enabled.
If so, You can use my program to connect the phone in xrecovery mode and access the system files.
If You don't have root, You can try to root it, install good kernel (like doomkernel), backup Your current os, flash new ROM and restore the data.

hey guys i am having some serious issues with the phone app (core process) & contacts app crashing all the time on the new .402 firmware...
this happens irrespective of kernel
even tried wiping appslog, cache, dalvik-cache still no luck
any ideas would be greatly appreciated as i dont want to sit re-installing everything
did you update to .402 and if yes how?
could you provide details flashed, ota, data wipe blah blah etc etc
since the app is broken a way to fix (not sure if this works on an odexed rom) but obtain the apk that is misbehaving (a working one from a stock rom)
delete the apk (from system)and odex,reboot and settle for a bit make a flashable zip of the apk and flash (copying doed not work when the device is running)
misc:
you can use android tuner or apps alike to remake the odex for the app you replaced
the method above definatly works on a deodexed rom, ive probably gone through it thousands of times by this point, par due to my poor coding
the data for that individual app may be gone but i think thats due to what ever they did after 4.1 to the app data management

updated to .402 the usual way... flash everything except userdata partition in FlashTool...
i never use OTA only FTF... appslog wiped, cache wiped, dalvik-cache wiped...
i am on pure stock ROM...
any more thoughts?
Did you try to wipe data for phone, contacts... etc.?
If yes, time to wipe contacts/phone storage and resync those information using exchange etc.
Also, try to disable (uninstall) xposed. And change the DPI to stock if you're using a custom one.

Hi DooMLoRD,
Did you restore/backup your contacts/messages with titanium-backup cause the contacts seems to crash cause the sqlite-db is locked.
I would try to clear the app-data/cache from contacts-storage and try again. (settings->apps->all->clear data/cache)
Or did you use any other apps wich are using the information from the contacts app.
I hope this solves it.

I suggest backing up your data
Clear app data and if it doesnt work then flash a deodexed rom
The app should work and if it breaks again you can simply reflash the individual app after deleting from your system
If it still doesnt work then flash a FTF
And if it still doesnt work then it could be the usual app bug that causes an app to FC for no reason, in which case you will have to data wipe and a posible rom reflash
I found this was a common issue when making app mods for my self or even a varient FFL kernel or even a base rom

Phonebook crashes
Hi there,
I have a Z1C with last firmware, no root, no xposed, just the out-of-the-box phone and I have the same issue.
Phone crashes over phone and phone book apps. I also tried to re-install firmware through Sony tool (the official one in PC companion) and after a while once again.
I'm not sure but it started after I set up the custom sorting in the app drawer.
Z1c shows up crash windows with those processes:
com.android.phone
phonebook
android.process.acore
