Ohh well last resort is to go back to nandroid nd use an app call super SMS background nd just do your backups nd any time you change rooms you'll have sms contacts nd something else I forgot

Are you sure the display options mark Sim card contacts to be viewed? Didn't you back them up to SD card vcf file?
Sent from my SGH-T959V using xda premium

I didn't back them up because they were on the Sim card so I assumed thru would stay there. But I'm just going to flash back to stock, and get them back

I think if you have a backup return to it nd back it up with the app nd I will save it to your SD nd anytime you change roms nd just restore it umm I could be wrong try it that's what I do

Downloading now. Can i flash from the 1.6 version or do i need to go back to stock and use the cwm3?

I'm going to just boot back into recovery from terminal and try flashing like that. I'll let you know how it goes.
I was able to flash over 1.6 with rom manager.

Something i noticed, it picks up that the phone has a flash for the camera its just the flash doesnt come on. Dont know if you knew but thought i would mention it.

Got this running, had to flash back to stock first, was running the previous release of miui.us, my phone didn't like the 3 button recovery loading and boot looped, looks like the in call audio was fixed though as I didn't have to factory reset after it installed and its working fine. Thanks for the work and for fixing the Verizon labeling, I know it was cosmetic but its nice that it says my provider.

You can try my rom.... catyrom or any of the i9000 ports...
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using xda premium
I currently have tried refuse 1.7, caty 1.0 & 1.5; currently running caty 1.5. I would recommend caty rom, the only thing I notice is the data sometimes cuts out and I have to restart my phone, also it shows the rom as "caty v2.0" in the "about" section of the phone, but the post says 1.5 so I am not sure what it is. But it's very simple to install and to run. Just make sure you follow directions to a T. When it says to let it reboot and sit for ten minutes actually do it. DONT FORGET TO HAVE A BACKUP IN CWM. Make sure it's rooted, I tried to root mine with Superoneclick and it didn't root properly, I had to use the odin with 3e recovery and root preset, then I was able to install roms. Good luck to you.
Yea...sorry...need to fix build prop...lol...keep forgetting to do that...and the service cutting out may just be the modem...

Are you using ROM Manager? if so, that is probably why you can't get it to work. just 3 button into recovery mode, go to backup and restore, and click backup. It should take a little while to work, and you can watch it go through all of the files as it backs them up.

Do not use rom manager!! When you transfer ron from computer make sure you send it to your 14 gb SD card and it will show up...do not flash anything or download any roms thru rom manager!

It is also helpful to create a folder on the SD card named "1 rom" so you can keep all your downloaded roms in one place and then you also don't have to scroll far with the volume keys since the folder will be at the top of the list all the time

Don't ever restore system data with titanium backup. It can cause issues. Only restore MISSING apps.

THANK YOU! I'll try that when he's not using it. However how would the SD card cause his problem?
Sent from my HTC Vision using XDA App
I fought with this issue for a long time, ended up using EaglesBlood's ROM and it didn't have the same issue. It's also not happening with EB's ICS ROM. Just in case the SD card isn't the problem...
The SD card could have a bad file on it or if its not a higher class it could lose some important files when transfering
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
SD was not the issue, I'll look into EaglesBlood's ROM now
The same thing started happening with my phone recently. It stays black when trying to wake the device and stays black during a phone call. It's only happening sporadically though. Kind of like a bratty child, only working when it wants to.
I've had this phone for about three months now but I rooted this device the same day it came out the box. I'm running CM7.1.01 Stable.
My SD card is a 32GB class 10, but I don't see how this could be an issue with the ROM.
When it happens and it won't respond to power button or volume key I just yank the battery and reboot..
Could it be a hardware issue?

Game Saves

How do I save game progress before I flash new rom. Is the file even accessable? Everytime I flash I lose all my hard work and don't even think about it before flashing. Also can this save be transferred between devices ie ( my save data to Girlfriends phone )

I need help please

I have a problem with my sidekick 4g when I try to go into recovery mode it freezes on the boot logo after that I tried charging it to see if nomorepowah would show up but I have to take the battery out for like an hour I've been trying to find the stock recovery and I can't find it I didn't change the recovery either all I tried doing a long time ago is install cwm but now it freezes when I try to go into recovery anybody have an answer to why its doing this?
Sent from my SGH-T839 using xda premium
Might have to odin back. I think its partially the nomoarpower's fault. Its obviously affecting how your booting, and it is a coverup for boot. Try removing it, and if it dosent work, then odin back to stock, then flash whatever you had. This might not be the solution, just trying to help

Download Titanium Backup and try to delete it.
Then install ICS messaging from the market.
I would assume this would work but I haven't tried it so back it up just in case.
