uninstalled various apps using titanium back-up and my phone account for contacts is gone. Only gmail account for contacts available now. All the stuff i deleted were ok to delete on froyo. Anyone has any idea which app causes that? Possible candidates are lg pc suite, email, richnote ,social and a few more. Since i need to reinstall the rom everytime it is a bit annoying to try and eliminate each and every one of them so i was wondering if anyone has pinpointed the problem so far. And no if i make a backup of the apps i uninstall with titanium back up and then restore it my phone account doesn't return...
I can't help with what apps may cause it but you might find it easier to go into the settings menu of your phone and go to the part of it showing your applications and look at the permissions required to see what apps need sms or contact related permissions.
I can say that you are able to back up phone contacts with Titanium Backup and restore them which should mean that even if an app uninstalls them you can simply restore the contacts from an sd card.
Haven't used Titanium for a while so had to look up how to backup contacts for you but apparently this should be all you need to do in order to backup your contacts with it (copied and pasted from another websites support pages so not my instructions)....
1 - Open Ti Backup
2 - Select the 'Backup/Restore' tab
3 - Select the 'menu' button to bring up some options in this tab
4 - Select 'Batch' (there a bunch of pre-programmed choices)
5 - Option 3 <RUN> 'Backup all user apps+system data'
6 - This will open another window where you can view all the items that are going to be backed up one of which is 'CONTACTS/CALLS' among a bunch of other items.
7 - Select 'Run Operation' at the top and the backup will start
8 - Be sure to copy the contents to your local machine HD for safe keeping
If that is done you shouldn't have a problem with contacts again, alternatively you can also sync contacts with gmail so your phone contacts can be restored that way as well.

for some strange reason lg pc sync caused it. when I uninstall it my phone contacts account is gone. Not sure if it is happening to me only though...
Hey folks,
I just finished saving my current phone contacts to Google instead of to my phone. I then deleted all the "Phone" versions of my contacts. Now all my contact icons have defaulted back to the basic picture when I open my Contacts app and begin scrolling. The only way I can see the individual icons is if I go all the way to the edit contact screen, or by logging into my Google account on a PC.
Do I need to re save all my contacts to my phone's local memory to get them to re show up again when I start scrolling? Or delete them all and restore them?
Thanks for any help.
ETA: I'm running dman's awesome streamlined Gingerbread ROM, and Entropy's lastest test kernel.
Figured I'd add this for futurer searchers...
I just had to force resync and all my contacts with pictures were restored.
running CleanROM 2.4 + Browser2RAM + stock browser. all great.
in terms of browsing, i like my devices discrete. i.e. there's stuff i only want to see on my desktop for work, and stuff i want on my tablet, phone. but now i have like 300+ bookmarks (organized into folders, thank goodness) on my tablet. thing is, i can't delete any of it!
1) at first it appears that i CAN delete bookmarks. but upon reboot, bookmarks are still there.
2) logged into Google Dashboard and deleted synced Chrome bookmarks and disabled this function. deleted some bookmarks, rebooted the tablet, bookmarks still there.
3) disabled com.android.providers.partnerbookmarks. deleted some bookmarks. rebooted. deleted bookmarks still there.
i understand that with Browser2RAM, upon reboot, everything goes back to the original state and ASUS becomes the home page. so why are my bookmarks still there? and better question: how can i delete them?
IDIOT, i am.
Clear Data on Browser
disable Google Bookmarks Sync (though i noticed this seemed to be enabled, regardless) or clear Google Chrome Sync in Dashboard.
done.

Hi guys,
I started using Chrome some years back on my desktop system. There I have all my bookmarks arranged as folders inside my bookmarks bar.
So far so good. Now on Chrome Android these bookmarks show up as desktop bookmarks in a folder "bookmarks bar".
I have two Android devices:
Nexus 6 --> Everything is fine, I use my desktop bookmark bar and when I close and reopen Chrome it opens the last bookmark page I used - fine.
Sony Z3 Tablet Compact --> I use my desktop bookmark bar and when I close and reopen it ALWAYS opens some stupid list of all bookmarks, unsorted, one huge list. I always have to navigate manually back to desktop bookmark bar bookmarks, every time I restart the browser. This is really annoying.
Uninstalled Chrome, cleared data and cache, but all to no avail.
Anybody any idea on how to fix this? Must be sth do do with Sony's ROM as all the other phones and tablets I have and had do not have that problem.
Thanks,
terry
Nobody?
Hello everyone,
I am moving from an S6 phone to S8, i used smart switch to move everything, apps, calendar , music, videos, contacts etc..
The only thing i couldn't move are the samsung internet browser bookmarks, i tried every synchronization way with google and samsung cloud but i was
able only to get my saved pages !
Is there any other way to export my bookmarks to my new phone?
Thank you for your support!
From the bookmarks page hit the menu button from the top select share and share the with a service that you already have on the s8
Thank you for your answer!
I already shared some manually ( impossible to share all at a time) to memo app, saved it and shared it to new samsung, how should i import them to samsung browser so far?
After hitting the share button just select all of them and share them with whatsapp, email or something and on the s8 just click and bookmark them manually.

That's very hard when you have over 800 bookmarks and you have to click each link manually and bookmark it again, besides you cant share more than 100 a time which you'll select them manually.
Thank you for your support anyhow!
Wow 800 ) sorry but i think there isn't any other way. Another thing i think you could try is to backup the app data ( sammy Internet) using titanium backup and then restore it on the s8 or even the whole app back it up restore it on the s8 but this might require root!? Try it out
