[Q] Nexus S messaging app problem - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Everytime I install a third party messaging app it says there are unread messages but I'm not able to open it. It happened after I upgraded to Stock ICS. Tried clearing cache in messaging app. Any other way I can solve this?

Did your MMS.APK ever force close before? Or did it crash?
My stock mms.apk is crashing on every ICS ROM. Maybe it's a ICS bug...
Try reinstalling your ROM. Wipe everything you can. Delete mms.apk with Advanced Tools or via Terminal
Now Go in Market and install your favorite 3rd messaging app
let me know if it forceclosed before on you and if this method works

No, I have never had a forceclose. I use a official ICS 4.0.3 which I downloaded from XDA and installed without the need for rooting or unlocking bootloader. I tried disabling the stock messaging app but I still get notifications telling I have unread messages in 3rd party apps and nothing when I open them.

i know it's kinda banal but, have you tried to go to the stock sms app, than to settings and UNcheck the "notify for a new message" ?

Its not the problem with Stock messaging. I get notifications in any third party messaging app i install. I think it might be due to the messages in my inbox when I upgraded from GB to ICS. I'm searching how to clear the messaging cache or all data accessible to the messaging app without having to root.

Force update of stock apps

I recently rooted my phone so it wiped everything and I'm back to a clean phone but I am missing updates to stock apps. I thought they would get pushed on their own but its been three days now and they haven't updated. Anyway I can force an update? I already tried clearing market cache but it didn't work.

You mean updates like maps 5.9.0 and gmail 2.3.5? Then you'll have to wait until it's your device's turn for an autoupdate again. Basically it's rolled out in badges and it's not your turn now, maybe it'll take a few days.
Haven't heared of a way to force updates. Try signing in to Google servers, *#*#checkin#*#*, but I think that's for OS OTAs only.
Or you'll have someone send you the apks. If you have cwm recovery you can use gapp.zip from CM. Another option (root req) is to get market enabler, delete teh stock app via TB and then redownload it.

Try going to Market. It might not show Gmail under Updates, but I just opened the Gmail market page and it let me manually update to the latest version 2.3.5.

Looking at his name I think he's German as well, we don't have access to GMail app via the market here, we have to wait for OTA updates (or use market enabler).
I'm from India.
I managed to force an update by changing my carrier using market enabler to Verizon in the USA. The market and music app updated within a minute.

[Q] Market wont open on ICS/CM9

Hi, I just flashed the ICS ROM for my g2x and also running CM9, everything works great but only few problems I found. My market place wont open up. I tried re-flashing the ROM but that didn't work. I also tried installing the Market APK file but that didn't work either. I cant even install apps through the browser. Any ideas as to why and how I can fix this?
Also I cant sign into any of my Google accounts and my clock app doesnt work, The alarms are still running but I cant open the app or edit the alarms. Any help would be appreciated.
maybe wrong gaaps file?

Did you flash gapps? This is needed for Google accounts and Market. Use the version dated 2/15/2012

Well when I flashed it I just restored my phone to my latest backup which had all the gapps. If I go ahead and flash the latest ones will it just replace the ones I currently have or do I have remove them first?

Please help me!
Odin flash your stock 2.3.5 and delete cache & data/ factory reset before and after the flash.
Then root.
Then restore only the apps you downloaded from app store using titanium backup. Don't restore any system apps.
Do some homework on deleting the tethering system provision app because that error means it has other dependencies most likely.

If you Odin back to stock all the system apps would be restored as if it were brand new from the manufacturer. You must be doing something wrong.

Can't install apps?

So for a while I was soft bricked waiting for the FXZ for 12.15.15, obviously it was released and my phone is up and running great but one thing I've noticed is when I try to install a 3rd party app I am not able to click install (I have unknown source's enabled duh) but it's so weird... I click the app, it opens and when I try to click install it just doesn't register period. I can click the cancel button but not install...I tried installing the latest safe strap to make a back up but am unable...I also tried installing the Google Search Launcher I extracted from a 4.4 ROM and the same issue occurs...any idea what this is? Or what I can do?...I may try restoring stock again cause this has never happened before,ever. Any insight would be great.

I've seen this before and for my device it was because I was running the app Lux, which is an autodimming screen effect. The way Lux worked was shooting a semi-transparent image over the whole screen. Android has a built-in feature that prevents apps from auto-clicking the install button by preventing apps that are "above" the install screen from disallowing them to auto-install things. Do you have any apps that are running in some sort of overlay?
Thank you Sir, I am actually running greenified which is just like this lux app your talking about, good look.... I had a feeling it was something I had installed, I'll uninstall and see if it works

Custom ROM breaks Push Notifications

I for the life of me can not figure out why my push notifications do not work when running custom roms. I have tried everything in the book. Clean installs/different kernels/different modems/different modems/new sim card/new google account. I have also tried a custom kernel on the stock rom and that didn't seem to work so I'm left to believe something with a custom kernel is breaking the notifications. Anybody have any ideas why this is happening?
