That was the first thing I tried and it didn't work. I ended up using the back to stock program. Now I have the agonizing pain of redoing my entire phone.

did you install a second launcher (like launcher pro) and delete tw3 before installing 4.5?
I did those to steps and I have had little issue with tw4.5.
The only issue so far was yesterday, I tried dropping some apps from the app drawer onto the home screen. Each time I did this my phone did a soft reboot, after pulling battery and rebooting several times it was still an issue. So I cleared defaults for tw and ran launcher pro and everything was fine, I switched back to tw and the issue was resolved. Not sure what caused it, but clearing data/defaults seemed to do the trick.

what rom/kernel? there seems to be an incompatibility with entropy's kernel on gb for me. if you have root explorer installed you can navigate to the /system/app directory and remove it but only if you have another launcher installed. if you cant launch apps (mine showed the app drawer as blank) you can use the search key to find apps.
What I did is flash tw4.zip through CWM. Then download TW4 manager then update the latest stable version. Everything worked after that. Widgets and all

Hi I had that same issue with one of the colored themes I think it was green could not get the phone to reboot into clockwork mod either. Solution was plugging the charger in and turning phone on after thee battery charging symbol came on and it rebooted into recovery automatically were I had to restore to a ealier image backup I had that was the only way I could get past the fc's.

Is there a permanent solution to fixing the SMS timestamp problem?
I'm currently using Firefly2.7 with Onyx2.0.2 and the SMS Time Fix app, but everytime I reboot my phone, I have to enable the timestamp fix.
flash the smstimefix from the firefly fix app on your phone.
I did, but it still resets everytime I reboot my phone.
Here you go:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/20958367/Mms_timestampfix-cwm.zip
Flash this with clockwork
That's the same one I flashed and it still doesn't work after I reboot my phone.
Are you using an app as well?
what exactly are you enabling?
When that cwm for firefly came out, I uninstalled SMS Time Fix and flashed the fix. A while later the timestamps were off again after a reboot, so I flashed it again. Then one day the timestamps messed up even without rebooting, so I installed the app again but I have to enable it every time I reboot my phone because it's always off.
Everytime you update firefly you have to reapply the CWM file.
If you have installed sms time fix from the market: You will have to uninstall it first, boot to recovery, flash the SMS timefix, then boot the phone back up.
hm, doesn't work when the app is installed just not enabled?
Nope. you have to completely uninstall it. I just tried it myself to make sure.
That could be my problem then. thanks!
So I don't think this worked, or at least something messed it up again.
I was playing with my phone last night (Switched to EXT with the Onix 2.0.2 Kernel and had to root my phone again with it, which conveniently enough can be done in recovery mode with Onix) and this morning my timestamps are messed up again..
Are you using an sms app? Other than the fixed one?
Just as a trial download Handcent and see if it works correctly
No I uninstalled it before flashing the ff fix.
Ill give handcent a shot and see if it works.

This fix ONLY works for Firefly
Need some help...
tried to integrate system updates into the rom via Ti, and now when it boots up, GoLauncher just force closes over and over and over.....
is there a way to clear the default launcher or remove go launcher via adb or something?
thanks.
I had this problem when I tried to install a new modem. I ended up having to
reflash the rom. I would restart in hopes of it fixing itself but more things just started force closing.

I've seen a few posts with this problem, but i haven't been able to keep a widget since I got the phone (before and after root) . Multiple factory resets and they still disappear after reboot and now that I put Zeus on here the list of widgets is few. Other than the stock widgets nothing new will show up for me to add. They are installed on the internal sd, and i've tried reinstalling them with no effect. Any ideas?

Problem solved, please close thread. Must have been a random bug, reflashed Zeus and now it works fine.

Installed Google Wallet with the wallet installer. I can't seem to get the app to reset as it hangs at 96% and stays there. I tried closing the app and opening it but it attempts to reset as I open it and it gets stuck at 96%. Anyway to fix this?
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
I have the same problem. However I get to 97% and it just hangs. Anyone else experience this?
I have. Usually it stops 3 under the target number. I then kill the wallet process and clear it data under applications. Never had a problem when flashing after doing those steps

I just tried this. Now Wallet can't seem to set up my device. It just force closes after trying to set up for a while.
Weird. Have you restarted since resetting it? Are you trying to re activate it on the same rom or have you flashed a new one?
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
I had same problem with it hanging at 97%. I ended up restoring my build.prop edits back to Galaxy Nexus, rebooted, and then reset google wallet. It then reset fully. See if it works for you.

Same rom. I'm trying to reset it completely without hanging. :/
You never get it to reset "completely" the progress bar will never get to 100 percent. This has been an issue since wallet was first made available to verizon through the hack. By resetting in wallet and clearing the data it actually does reset. If you want to make sure it has completed just go to the wallet website and check that your phone is no longer authorized for your cards

Yup! Running the installer works! I just have to reset my Wallet now. Hopefully it wont hang again. :/
Alright! It worked!
To anyone else that runs into this problem.
1) Close Google Wallet through the multitask window.
2) Clear data
3) Run Google Wallet installer again
4) Your device should be setup
5) Reset app!

Clarification question before I switch to try a different ROM.
Would step 6 then be restore build prop and step 7 reflash new rom? Also, do you backup wallet in Tibu and run the steps above or do you not even bother and just uninstall and rerun the wallet installer after loading a new rom?
Use the installer or the zip flashed in recovery. Never backup wallet in TB

Yes. Although I believe it's optional you can restore your build prop. Then flash your home.
