Contacts keep closing - Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers

Hi Everyone. I got a new account but I've visited this site lots of times now in about 4 years.
First of all, I would like to thank all the developers here especially to Tkkg1994 for developing the superstock rom on the galaxy s7.
I have installed it on my phone and works great! I would like to ask if anyone else is encountering this problem on this ROM? The samsung contacts app(stock) keeps crashing if I go to "settings". I wanted to export my contacts from here.
I have tried reinstalling about 8 times now with different options and settings (tried stock kernel, tried superstock kernel, tried installing all samsung and google apps, tried with/without adblocker, tried with/without busybox). Would appreciate any help or info on this. Thanks XDA!
Regards,

Looking for a fix.
I also noticed after the recent update that my contacts keep closing when trying to enter the settings. Wondering what it is and looking forward to a solution.

Did you get this fixed?
I fixed it by manually installing a newer Samsung Contacts app. Just Google "Samsung Contacts apk", download a newer version (I downloaded the latest 3.1 that was newer than what was on my phone).
Drop the apk in /system/priv-app/SamsungContacts80, set the permissions on the new file to RW-R--R--, add an underscore to the end of the old original Samsung Contacts file so that you have a backup of the original file that is not used, then reboot.
Voila! Everything is fixed.

MIUI ROM + android market

So market.android.com does not recognize my device as compatible, I switched over from CM7 which worked fine, to MIUI just for fun and i cant remote install any apps.
This may be a problem

but is there anything i can do to fix it? I run on Tmobile
Same scenario and symptoms for me - NexusOne is only partially recognized by Android market. Partially is meaning that I was able to download the applications I paid for, but all the free stuff was not suggested for downloading and in Market Web page "Last used" field is empty.
Any ideas? I'v tried to google the answer, but may be I'm asking wrong questions?
how did you install Market ? don't tell me that you just copy and paste this(es) file(s) from CM7 to MIUI
because my phone running well both MIUI and Market

I don't understand the question. There was nothing to install - Market is a part of MIUI 1.11.4. And my phone is able to run Market, download apps etc.
Now, when I'm looking at the first post - I see the difference. I can install applications Actually my problem is that Market does not recognize my Nexus1 as connected - Last Used field is empty. An, obviously, that's the reason I can't get all my previously installed apps to be re-installed automatically.
ahhh , okay , sorry that i missunderstood your question ...
I've the same issue with htc desire/miui 1.11.11
did you fix it ?

[Q] JB 4.1 / Modify MMS.APK so keyboard does not overlap latest sms?

Hey guys!
I've got a JB 4.1 ROM on my device (well, all of the devices released with it, anyways, as it's stock) which has a peculiar problem in the SMS app. Watch this:
( http://i.imgur.com/ZsCvsIL.png )
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
See? the keyboard "overlaps" the latest two SMS. Watch closely the highlighted SMS, notice it doesn't appear on the wrong behaviour comparison? I want to archieve the behaviour in the rightmost screenshot (this was photoshopped )
Now, this isn't a "normal" behaviour as I didn't see it happen on ICS (previous stock ROM, too). This behaviour also doesn't happen on other apps which use the keyboard, such as Facebook Messenger or Whatsapp. I've also tried other keyboards but the same problem appears.
I'm really tempted on editing the MMS.apk but I don't know where to start, it could be a .xml editing or it could be a .smali editing, I dunno.
I've uploaded the MMS.apk in case any of you wanna take a look at it - you don't have to, though, but at least if you can provide some guidelines or hints on how should I proceed, that'll help at least.
I've done some googling too and haven't found anything relevant, only this http://www.droidforums.net/forum/team-d1-miui/112623-keyboard-covers-latest-sms-messaging-app.html but it's for MIUI and also the file was hosted on megaupload which we all know got KIA so...
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!

Bump!... though I hate bumping, but has nobody looked into this? I've read it happens on other JB-based ROMs...
Bump bumpity bump-a-bump

Recurrent Sign-in Error

Hey,
Does anyone keep getting Google sign-in errors on their Razr HD? It started a couple of weeks back, and now a few times every day, this pops up. Mainly when using Chrome, I think.
Any ideas what the cause could be?

can't see your screenshot, so don't know what your actual error is but I have never had any issues with google services.
Are you on stock firmware or custom i.e. CM, Slim etc..?

Totally stock Fido (Canada) ROM. Problem only started a couple of weeks ago.
This might work: http://i.imgur.com/G9UxoYD.png

Hey,
I'll give it a go, but my icons aren't white as you can see in the screenshot. I am not actually losing connection to servers, just keep getting that stupid error message
Cheers,
Su
I'm getting that same exact error whenever I use Chrome. Hope someone can offer a solution to this. Not really a huge problem, but it is very annoying.
Jigz, are you on Chrome Beta by any chance? Perhaps that's the problem?
try to sign in another google account then switch back to the previous account this might help

[Q] Files not Showing Up

Hey guys, I came across this issue a few days ago. I'll try to explain this as best as I can:
After messing around with my phone, I discovered I am unable to view any of my files in the sdcard directory. When I open it up in a file manager, NOTHING shows up. In addition to this, I can't download or save pictures and files. I can't do anything with my sdcard it seems. Yet, when I go to storage in settings, it still says my files are there. PLEASE HELP!
This is what my phone's directory looks like from a computer:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
This is exactly what I did to my phone for it to stop showing my files:
- Flashed Ephoria version 1.0 with Android 5.0.2
-Flashed DSP manager over it even though the rom is CM and has AudioFX
-Fixed permissions
-Repeated process a few times after I realized files weren't showing up
(Let me know if you need me to specify anything!)
Is there a fix for this issue? Does anyone have any idea what I should do?
Along with this issue, I'm unable to download any ROMS or Kernels to fix this issue. Basically, I can't go anywhere from here and will probably have to format everything/factory reset to completely solve this issue...

Oppo A7 Keeps deleting the file automatically

My Oppo A7 has this kind of, like, phone manager or os system that keeps deleting my residual files and cache once every several days/overnight. I used system log to keep track of the processes involved. Well, I can only find the system UI in work during the same time my files were deleted. But, it was not in the process of deleting my files. But, when I was observing all the system apps i found some, like phone manager plugin that does not stop its process although i had disabled its usage access, where it keeps enabling itself back. My file always got deleted around 3 am. Disabling phone manager, having its self frequency off, or deleting related running process through developer options doesn't seem to work or just works for several days. Anyone has any idea how to stop my phone from rambling in the morning, deleting my files willy-nilly without my permission, only to wake up feeling raged? Here are the screenshots of the clean storage function on phone manager that i suspected deleting the files. I also think it has something to do with cheetah cleaning master.
