My question is. Can anyone think of why my ringer is going on mute?
And how do I fix it?
Edit! also some of my default settigs are getting erased. for example i choose messaging as my normal textin app. but after a day maybe when i try to text someone it asks me which app i want to use!

What crazy was trying to say is... Are you on stock or modified firmware? Have you tried factory reset?

Your settings don't get saved.
Happens usually when you're restoring system stuff in Titanium Backup that you shouldn't be restoring.
Wipe data / factory reset.

That's sounds pretty close to correct jack if something was backed up thru system setting restored could cause the issue if not then start from scratch bad flash

[Q] [Solved] Titanium Backup

Ok, here it goes. I have been using tbu for a few years now on various phones. I am using version 3.9.0.1. This is one of the first problems i have had with it. When I go to install or uninstall any app, I get a force close. I have tried numerous things to get it working again with no success. Anyone have any thoughts?

The only thing i can think of is, i have too many apps backed up. I have 247 user apps that equal 3gb. I don't know, I'm lost on this. I might back them all up on my computer, then start uninstalling them normally. I'll get rid of 50 or so and then use tbu and see if it acts any better.

Have you contacted the developer? Also they have a decent troubleshooting wiki over here that talks about FC's and crashing >> Titanium Backup Wiki

I haven't contacted the dev. I usually don't like to do that because i feel like any dev in general has too much going on anyway. I will check out the wiki you posted. Thanks

Found a fix. I uninstalled tbu, then cleared permissions in su, forced stopped su, rebooted phone, installed tbu again and it started working as normal. So far so good. Thanks guys for the help.

Droid Charge Stuck In Some Kind Of Test Mode

So I'm trying to fix a phone for someone but I can not find a way. Basically the phone says the IMEI is all 0's and even if you put a sim in it has a O with a line through it instead of service bars but still shows the 4G icon. Also it has all this stuff written on the screen that I've attached pictures of. Going into the settings says all 0's for the IMEI. I've tried factory resets and using ODIN to flash stock but no luck, I've thought of just restoring the IMEI but not to sure that would solve it
Yeah it looks like you need to restore the IMEI. Worth a shot
EFS is wiped and needs to be reprogrammed. Did this happen randomly? You can take it to Verizon and they can fix it as long as the device isn't blacklisted.

Doesn't Tweaked reset that? Could have swore I saw something like that when Odining Tweaked 3.
(~: Tweaked out on Peace :~)
Can you get the phone to download mode? If yes you can get the phone restored to original settings. Based on this picture your kernel might be messed up. It is just a guess.

I have no idea what happened. I think its a problem with the kernel. I was able to sometimes get it to work but now its just gone completely dead. My phone wont even vibrate as it boots up. i tried doing a full wipe, dalvik, data, and cache and nothing it working. i even installed a new version of the kernel, 10/30's version of cm10, and nothing happens..
I have no idea what to do and i need help!
You need to Odin back to stock and start clean over.

My backup pro, titanium backup etc. And you can backup your apps and data and SMS etc.
Then with you computer copy your internal card to the computer and then Odin.
Once back on a ROM you like, copy your stuff back to the internal card, restore with chosen backup program.
Won't feel any different.

since this is the i777 forum, my guess would be that your section is not here. if you don't know what section is yours, you probably shouldn't be rooting and modding your phone.
sorry to be so harsh.

Not harsh at all. Following directions properly is the main ingredient for successful flashing or using apps that require root. Since restoring with TiBu across different ROMs can definitely mess up your phone if not done correctly, one needs to know exactly what they are doing. Not being able to find the correct forum is a bad omen.
Moving to a more appropriate thread...
Guys didn't wanna start a new thread and clog it up so ill ask here. With the new update a titanium backup, isn't it supposed to I have update zips that restore with data? when I restore through recovery after complete wipes, the app's install but there is no data. I was hoping that this zip would restored exactly the same as it would in normal restore processes. Example: SwiftKey needs setup again, all accounts need to be signed back in, etc

Will installing a new ROM erase my photos, videos, and music?

Will rooting, installing CWM, or rooting mess with my photos, videos, or music? If so, what is a good, free way to back these up?

Not if you do it right.
Even installing a Custom ROM?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda app-developers app
Even that. I have flashed over 100 times on a few phones and have never lost anything. Still back it up though.
And by back it up, are you referring to Tibu? Or just back it up in general like Dropbox.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda app-developers app
I do both. TB only backs up your apps and the data associated with those apps. Anything else like photo's or music I just copy over to my computer. Dropbox is another option. Just make sure you understand what you're doing first and you'll be fine.
Ok. So in that case, what does installing a custom rom and etc erase? Because I was under the impression that a factory reset was needed in order to install a custom rom.

OK. I'll give you the quick version. You will not loose anything on your sdcard. You will loose your apps that are stored in system as well as contacts and wifi settings and such. That's why you also back up to google for contacts. Use TB or something like it to back up user apps and data. Wipe, Flash, restore. You asked if it would wipe photos, music, and videos. It will not if you do it right. Start reading. Then read some more. When that's done you'll have a better idea of how it all works. Then once you understand the process for yourself flash away.

A factory reset doesn't wipe user data such as photos, videos, music, etc.

Okay. I'm starting to get it. I do have to read more. When your in ClockWorkMod for example, and you needed to wipe to flash the rom, does it also mandate a user data reset? Also, are there stickies on all of this so I can bug you guys less? Haha.
