I actually was 50% sure about that solution (as usual) and have never managed the sim as I haven't stored stuff there for long time (many phones before). Maybe the foolproof solution would be entering the sim to an ordinary phone and if they appear there also then just brutally delete them all

Good idea ill give that a go thanks!

Try sms yourself see if it comes? test it from web? You can always call your provider ask them your sms is not working, dont have to say you installed a non factory rom. Right now you just need to figure out if it is your provider or your cell. If you have a phone u can borrow test your sim will be nice. Debug the problem one step at the time, dont rush into conclusions.
I've got a similar problem. Every now end then an sms hungs my phone. No matter what room I have. It hangs, it hangs showing a mini version of sms (I can still turn of the phone by soft) or it hangs I can't see a thing but if I wait long enough (about 2-3 minutes) when I reset my prophet the message is in my inbox(if i won't wait there's nothing there. It's annoying an haven't found a way pass it

and you have solved the problem?? :s
if yes... how you do it???
or the problem is in the SIM card?
No, didn't solve anythin. Now when my PDA hangs I just wait 2-3 minutes before I reset it so I can read the sms I don't know where the problem is...
I thing that only my first rom didn't have such an issue (the oryginal one without BT support)

Hi P4k1t0,
The vcard program gives to possiblitie to send and receive vcards like nokia phones, if you search on xda you will find a lot of thead's related with vcards, in my case the problem i have with sms, was related with the two vcards software.

Seems to me he didn't install any software since he's been flashing the device a view times.
@P4k1t0
Since you've reflashed your device with a new ROM and new Radio ROM my guess would be it's either your SIM-Card or your network
Do you have a list of standard programs you install after every flash? Or did you, like I assumed, didn't install anything after the reset?

HELP!!! serious problem.... help please!!

Hello there,
I have a serious problem. A while ago i flashed the energy rom to my device and it worked great. Now i can't use my phone anymore because it was a beta version? I've searched the forum, and i saw more of you got the same problem.
And i've read that it's possible to reinstall windows on my device but..
I typed serious import texts with notefolio and windows note creator program thing, i need it for my job,, Is there any way to retrieve those text files? It's not on my SD card, so it must be in the internal memory.. ****
My laptop makes a sound when i connect the USB cable, nut i can't see my touch pro in ''my computer'', it seems it won't connect...
Please please help me i'm desperate
thanks allready
Greatings,
Bouke
Mine just did the same thing and im about to leave the country. Have any suggested new builds?
Energy Rom Craps Out
My phone has also taken the time trial sleep, any help before I reflash. XDA should make it known that acts such as this do not happen again. I have donated to the development of this site, now wondering why & if I will do it again. Please help with a fix other than reflashing.

I dont think theres any way to undo this thing. just happend to me this morning. I was able to get a start menu, but all the apps I start, start under the message.
BUT, since I got enough reminders that this version I flashed was going down, I see not more than to just accept this failure .
So I held down the vol- button en pressed the reset button with my stylus, now I its flashing a new ROM.
Good luck
yea i tried that aswell, but everyting is beneeth the message.
And indeed it's a huge FAIL from the energy rom developer
I'm still hoping for some reactions that may help recovering my valuable text files..
If i flash a new rom it will erase all the data on the phone memory including text files notefolie etc. right?
Greatings
unfortunately yes. as far as i know there is no chance of getting them out of there. but you installed a custom and private made rom - that is to some extend alsways a risk and you should back up all the things you have on your phone when you do this.
good luck
i too want to get a few things out of the phone.
the stuff that still works is htc sense, and anything started directly out of sense, but not any shortcuts to programs.
you can access it by locking the phone, then unlocking it.
it will give me access to sense ui.
so i'm now pretty much looking for anything that's left to help me start a backup program.
any ideas on how to add a program as a service?
maybe with sd autostart.
does that still work?
all we need is to get the phone to run one lousy backup app.
maybe even automated.
we need ideas! ;-)

My phone locks on long end key.
If I press that and unlock again, the expiry message disappears for a while.
Sense and some Programs started directly from within work. Not the home screen links
However, I cannot start programs from links or access the internal memory.
Is there any way to read this while in "boot screen" mode?
If you can get some things to work, then pull your sim card out, and sync to a pc. If the syncing works, set the pc's date back a few days, and see if the rom starts working normally, then back up what you need and re-flash.
If you can't sync, just try to fix the date on your phone. A soft reset may be required.
Doesn't work as Sense crashes when I try to set the date.
Maybe it works for other people.
Sync does not work as that is blocked.
I tried changing the timezone immediately after it locked but that didn't work either.
So I suspect changing the date back wouldn't do you any good.
In other words: I don't see any way to recover any data from internal memory.
I'm going to do a hard reset now as I don't have time for this.
I conclude that whoever decided or implemented this timebomb as is, is a complete asshole and I hope he gets eaten by wolves in his sleep.
Disabling a product after a beta phase and/or forcing customers to update is perfectly fine, destroying their data in the process is unacceptable.

Gee, Office 2010 is a beta release, and came with a time-bomb. Maybe you should call microsoft and tell them to suck it since your custom rom didn't live up to your expectations.

Best security application?: Locate, wipe, lock, etc...

Hey
Whats the best security application out there? So I can lock, locate, make it ring, wipe, etc...
I like seekdroid. Its $0.99. But its the only I've used...
so if a thief removed the sim do these apps still work?
AndroidLost. a new addition
P.S its FREE

i don't think that most of these apps will still work if you disable mobile data or even remove the sim. i guess most of them use the google market push option to lock/wipe/whatever and without internet access they won't ever receive the lock/wipe request.
so i think they're just useful if you lost your phone and no one has found it already...

That's the problem all of these apps suffer from. An experienced thief will pull out the SIM card as soon as he can to cut off the mobile phone network and data connection. We've had a few iPhones/Blackberrys stolen at work and they disappear from the network minutes after so they don't respond to a wipe command sent from Exchange or a SMS with a wipe command in it.
I guess the apps are useful if you have lost your phone, or if somebody isn't savvy enough to remove the SIM. I use an app like this, but back it up with another; Autowipe. This lets you wipe the phone if the person changes the SIM or puts the incorrect password/pattern/pin in a number of times. Granted, it won't get your phone back, but it should protect your data.
If you're interested; its here:

(I know it's in the Nexus One forum, but it works on an HTC Desire too).
I use prey ... it texts you the new sim card number to a nominated other number when the sim card is changed. I have not tried putting in a different sim but in theory it should lock the phone when a new sim is put in.
None of these programs work when you reflash the phone though.

That's interesting and an improvement on what I have seen before, but it still leaves your data at risk: after stealing your phone, I'll hold down the power button and put it into aircraft mode; now I can keep trying your swipe pattern until I get access.
Personally I want the data wiped off the phone immediately. I guess stuff like this should be built into Android so it can't be removed.
But thanks for the heads up re prey. I'll take a look at that.

Weird Network/Airplane Mode Issue

A couple of times now, when I'm out and about I lose my cellular data connection. It just stops working. In the past on other devices when this has happened a reboot will usually fix it. But on my Atrix 2, when I reboot the phone comes one with Airplane Mode enabled (please note that I did not turn on Airplane mode). If I try to turn Airplane Mode off, it will just sit and say "Enabling wireless connections" but never actually turn them on. I have to actually do a battery pull to fix this problem. The first time it happened I went and got a new SIM card (as mine was pretty old), and it just happened to me again this afternoon. I'm past my 30 day return policy (bought the phone at Best Buy) so I can't return it.
Has anyone else experienced this problem? Anyone have any ideas on what might be causing this?
Just to reiterate, I did not turn on Airplane Mode, the phone powers on with it enabled and then won't actually turn off Airplane Mode when I tell it to.
i have the same problem too. After it happens couple times, i find out it might be the problem from the at&t address book issue which cause the phone cant read the sim for some reason (as it result, airplane mode keep enable). I also believe it is because the phone has been unlocked so the at&t address book crash. Is your phone unlocked?
Well, i am not quite sure it work on ur phone, but here is how i do it usually.
Way 1- plugin another sim card(sometimes i dun even need to do it), load the at&t address book, it will force the phone to load sim card cause of the contact from sim (then it should work right after that or after reboot)
Way 2- pull the battery for 1 day, it will work after that(but this is kinda dumb)
Hope this can help you XD.

My phone is not unlocked. I could see the AT&T Address book thing contributing, I've NEVER had that thing work right, and thus I don't even have it set up on my phone (it's on there in my Accounts, but it's not configured that I know of because i do my contact syncing through Google).
Battery pull definitely solves the problem, at least temporarily. The only other SIM I have is the old one they took out when they replaced the SIM after this happened the first time. I also don't store any contacts on my sim (again use google for that), so I don't know if doing a SIM swap would solve the problem in a more permanent way since I've basically already done that.
I tried battery pull, but it doesn't work sometimes. The reason i run at&t address book because it would force the phone to detect the sim again(cause of the contact). Lucky it doesn't always happen. hoping Motorola can fix this issue on next update.
**I just think about it, it might be some stupid mistake from motorola that overwrite the memory about the phone status section.
have you guys tried factory resetting it?
I tried to reset but it doesn't help at all

how about freezing or removing the apps from att?

ok just inform us what happens.
I have and identical problem.
My phone would turn with the Airplane mode ON and I can't deactivate it, or even if it shows I can, it's not in the menu and I won't get any signal.
I can't recall If it happened because of a change but I doubt so.
I tried factory reset / cache / dalvik, also flashing numerous rom from neutrino to cm7 to cm9 and even MIUI (which worked the first time I flashed it for a day and then same error).
And It will also occasionnaly reboot If I try too hard checking for networks and such.
Any help ?

So phone screen cracked... anyway to backup internal SD?

My phone screen cracked a couple weeks ago, it wasn't that bad that I couldn't stand it but it was a little bothersome. Anyways I thought I would just put up with it for a while, but I ended up placing a claim for a replacement from Asurion a few days ago. Well I dropped my phone again the other day while I was walking home using the LED flash, and I thought everything was fine til I got home and I noticed the screen didn't turn on anymore. It is unresponsive as well so can't answer calls either. I tried plugging the device into my computer and it listed the device but I couldn't access the actual files. I tried opening Odin up just to see if I could even write to the phone, and ended up flashing a root66 file I had from a while back. I don't believe it wipes the the internal SD so I was wondering if it was possible to retrieve the data off the phone still? I have most of my stuff, including Titanium backups, on my external SD; but I believe I have a few important files on the internal too.
Edit: .-. Just remember I was on an AOSP rom before odin'ing.. so phone won't boot up all the way. Are there any AOSP roms I can flash in Odin? Yeah I know what I did was really stupid haha.

There's an app called airdroid that let's you control and use a lot of the phones functions on a web browser via wifi. You can browse your files, send and receive text messages among many other things. Maybe it will help you out with copying files to your computer and other problems?

Even then, the screen doesn't turn on and is unresponsive. So can't install any apps or anything.
You could try adb pull, but I don't know the exact paths you should use. Don't forget phone needs to in usb debugging before you're able to use it.

Gave up on adb a while ago. Tried so many times to figure out how to use it to no avail. Plus I might have screwed up too far at this point to adb
You could give Android Commander a try. Read about it on Addictivetips, I believe it uses adb. It's pretty much a file explorer.
