[Completed] No settings.db - XDA Assist

I have attempted for two days, to remove the text message limit on my phone. By that I mean the thing that pops up and says an app is trying to send multiple message (deny/allow). I have installed SQlite3 threw adb, fastboot, and terminal. None of them allow me to access the settings.db on data/data/com.android.providers.settings. in that folder I just have settings.db-backup and settings.db-journal. is it possible that my rom MIUI 7 is causing me to not have this database? Is there another way to remove the text message limit? Is it possible to just make it so that the dialog never pops up and is just auto allowed instead of me having to repeatedly press it? Thanks for any help in advance.

first of all, you're posting in the wrong section.
second of all, we need more information. ROM? what happened to make it crash? what DO you see if you can't get to windows interface?

The rom in my phone is the original rom from three(australia).
I change an ini file of my input method I installed( and set it as the default input method), and this input method has a short cut in startup file in windows. so I guess my phone crashed because it can not load that ini file.
I can see start menu and even the time is correct, but not all hard button is working and the today screen is crashed. beside I can't start any software on my phone and it can not connect to ActiveSync.
I post it here because I think it related to rom dumpping.
I am trying mtty now, but it show "command error!!!" when I try to use "rtask a", "rtask b" or "r2sd".
I think if I can get to the AT commond interface I can dump my sms out

Problems putting Zroot on phone.

This is becoming the hardest way to root apparently -_-
I`m trying to get z4root on to my Galaxy S Captivate from Rogers (SGH-I896)
I`ve downloaded the apk file and placed it on my desktop, when trying to copy the file to my phone I get this error message.
(I tried to post a picture here but apparently I need to post 8 times?*fail)
It says an unexpected error is preventing the operation.
Error 0x80070057: The parameter is incorrect.
clicking try again just prompts the message again.
Phone is connected in USB mass storage mode.
USB debugging is on.
It appears the app is no longer available in the market so is this the only way to get it on my phone?
I've literally tried downloading the apk 5 different times from different places and they all give the same message when I try to copy, also tried copying the file pretty much everywhere possible on the phone. any help would be greatly appreciated.

[Completed] Change Android Device Name?

Hello guys, how are you?
I am having a problem ... how can i change an android device name?
For comparison, when you set up a computer you need to give it a name ... i want to do the same on my android.
how can i do it?
I ask this because i am using Remote Desktop App from Microsoft, to do a Remote Desktop Connection to a Windows Server.
But, i have a program installed in that windows server that needs to pre-authorize the device-name in order to acess that program. At the moment whenever i try to open that program i get the message "unable to open because D5803-4.4.4" it's not authorized. (D5803-4.4.4 i assume it's my android device name), so i need to change that D5803... to an authorized name.
I found that if i run a terminal emulator and do:
> su
> getprop net.hostname
> setprop net.hostname <new_hostname>
this changes the hostname ... but the results are the same, my device name stays the same.
help?
thanks!
anyone?please help its urgent
Hi
Thanks for writing to us at XDA Assist. I don't think the device name is actually the root of the problem that you're experiencing, I'm pretty sure merely changing it won't fix your problem. Anyway, it's been a few days since you posted, have you fixed the issue?
PS. Please don't bump a thread any more than once in a 24 hour period, refer to the XDA Forum Rules for more information.
No response in two days, thread closed.

BL unlocking question!! Cannot push file into phone

Hey everybody,
I have a verizon pixel on 7.1 build NDE63N which I wanted to unlock with dePixel8 method. Not my first unlocking endeavor.
I have the appropriate drivers, adb/fastboot files, confirmed the appropriate device under device manager and with command (adb devices). For whatever reason, I cannot push the file into the phone. I get a blinking curser and nothing else. I tried to push other files (a text file) into the download folder (/sdcard/download) and was able to do so.
Is this a permission issue? Looked over xda and the web without a clear answer.
Thanks!!

Did you enable USB debugging under the developer settings?
I've seen some people saying older adb/fastboot binaries caused issues with their devices. Maybe re-downloading those will work.

Pay attention to step 3 at the bottom. I've seen people with this problem saying that running apps will keep it awake long enough to run the commands without timing out. Also reboot between attempts, that's really important. Keep at it, you'll get it.
Thanks everyone. It eventually was a USB port problem, not sure why, but I remembered reading about it before.
I was using the original cable with most recent ADB binaries. But now I have an unlocked pixel
