Hey All,
This will be my first post here, so I may be a little different.. anyway the purpose of this post is that I done something completely stupid by deleting the stock Phone application on my SONY XPERIA E3 D2206, I can't answer or make calls, when someone calls me I loose all service to my phone provider and it says com.android.phone or something similar to that stopped, and if I get a voicemail it just goes insane, I keep getting notifications over and over and over again, and it says the same error, I was wondering if their is any way I can gain access to the phone app now by using .apks or something like that? I don't really have a way to flash any ROMs in any way, shape or form. Any help would be appreciated ?
Does anyone have any way to fix this?

For some time now, I've been having a problem with my Touch Pro. Some time ago, (about a 2 months or so) I have been recieving harassing texts and from "Unknown Sender" or "1234". Where the texts come from isnt so much the issue, the issue is that whomever is sending the texts can see any text messages I send; my call log; my emails and any picture mail in my phone. I've also been told that voicemails have been forwarded to other people even before I hear them. Im sure its like a vendictive ex girlfriend or a friend of theres of something...but I cant figure out how to stop it.
I havent called Sprint, I have master reset my phone and restored my backed up data, and then it started up again. I havent left my phone around anyone, or taken it to a sprint store ever for repairs or anything...so...I just cant figure it out.
If anyone has any suggestions of where this might be coming from or how to stop it, I would greatly appreciate it. Im thinking of getting a new phone or switching carriers...
Thanks.
Possibly someone has cloned your SIM-card.
SIM card cloning is by the way not very easy, but still possible.
When so, the only way around it, is to have the current one blocked and buy a new one.

may be your ex or somebody installed phone creeper on your phone!
try to flash your ROM... and dont restore your data for a few days and see if the same things happen
hope this will help
Yeah, it sounds an awful lot like someone slapped you with creeper. You can hard reset, but not restore, and see if the problems go away. Or check the \windows\startup folder, and see if the creeper startup link is there (not sure what it's called-that thread is too long, lol). Or, use sk tools to see what runs at startup, and disable creeper or whatever it's called on the the device.
Of course, if you figure out that it is creeper, and you know who did it, you may want to see if you can have a little fun at their expense before disabling it. That's definitely the way that I would go.
Hey guys, I have trouble going into the message screen on my touch pro. Every other part of the phone works fine. But if I touch the screen to access the message section, it wont respond. Or if I touch the all messages area of the screen, it will light up but the screen wont switch over. pretty much every other part of the phone works except accessing the message/sms part. i still can receive incoming texts but i have no way of replying it!
I have tried soft reset and it would not help either.
This problem appeared out of nowhere.
my touch pro is unlocked, ROM version is 5.05.401.1 WWE, using windows mobile 6.1
From your report, it sounds like something in the software is crashing. I had something similar and the only way I could figure was to re-flash it (involves losing everything loaded on your phone, without a backup) with the ROM I wanted. There may be another way but for the lack of experience with a stock ROM and your specific situation, it is difficult to help you troubleshoot.
should I go for a hard reset?
or should I reinstall a new ROM? if this is the case, can you kindly tell me how to do it?
all my contacts are saved on my sim card so im not too worried about losing those infos.
I suppose it wouldn't hurt anything to try the hard reset first. Also, if there was anything added/installed and wasn't a part of the stock ROM, it is likely you will lose it such as programs, games, etc. Let me know if you'd like to try your hand at flashing a custom ROM, if the hard reset doesn't work.
If you aren't comfortable with either of these, it might help to give it a few days to see if anyone else chimes in...
Hi everyone
I've signed up to the forum as I've exhausted every option I can think of and really need to consult with someone who knows more about the android operating system then myself.
I recently bought one of the S3 Mini clones, mine didn't actually say it was an Alps, but a quick glance at the firmware indicates that is what I have. The problem I'm having is with the darn "vibrate when call answered" feature. I have followed guides i found online and concluded something must be missing from the firmware. If I bring up the phone dialer app and go in to settings, I'm missing the "Call alerts" feature. So I dont have the ability to disable to vibrate on answer function.
Does anyone have any advice on what I can do? perhaps reinstall a new phone package over the current one? According the phone it is running Android 4.1.1.
If anyone can help me on this, I'd be truly greatful
Anybody got any ideas? seems to be plenty of people viewing this thread.
Hello everyone and thanks in advance, I am not tech inclined, especially when it comes to this sort of thing. Cut to the chase. I'm going on vacation and don't want to take my main phone(NOTE 3). My idea was to get a small tablet(Galaxy TAB 3) and use that as my main communication device.
Problem: it's not unlocked so it wont read any sim card
There is no cellular phone dialer
It's a sprint tablet
Question: Does anyone know anyone or resources in NYC that is capable of fixing my problems. Any help would be greatly appreciated....
You can probably use PushBullet to forward the text messages and notificatons to your tablet from your phone.
Sadly I don't know of a way to do that with phone calls.
i want to disable the software updates on the s5 i recently purchased. although its a phone i plan on using it as a tablet/camera. i would like to disable the software updates as i really do enjoy the blue interface in the pull down menu. i went into settings and chose dont automatically update software... but it sitll tries to when it senses my wifi being connected.
other than rooting so its not able to, is there anything i can do to stop the updates?
i know to many, the blue interface probably sounds like such a dumb thing to be worried about, but i just really like the way it looks and would like to keep it.
i have no sim so theres no data connection possible, only wifi. but when i pull up wifi to play a game, it starts wanting to update.
i went in to the app settings and disabled something called software updates (that it would let me, but there are 2 identically named things in the app manager, and only one let me disable it), it didnt work though, it still wants to update. i also went into the factory recovery and wiped the cache. that didnt help either....
is there anything i can do? Also been looking to get rid of the annoying battery cover message that happens on reboot
