Re: HELP, please: N9 all messages gone. Disappeared!
I'm not sure, but this is really the only chance i see...
Other ideas are very welcome :) Edit: i also was sad, when i lost all my messages, but as i can say from my own experience... this happened so often to me on the N9, you get used to it ;) |
Re: HELP, please: N9 all messages gone. Disappeared!
So, copy "/home/user/.cache/tracker/meta.db" to external computer and have a go at it :D

Re: HELP, please: N9 all messages gone. Disappeared!
I'm interested in checking this out too. This happened to me again yesterday. I did not reset the tracker or anything. After 3 reboots the messages came back by themselves. I'd like to understand what is happening here.

I dont know what is "tracker reset"...so probably nothing has been done. I installed n9 qtweak all restored and found the 2 sms... Then since this moment my girlfriend (even with a lot of reboot) have only her new sms, the old ones all lost.... :( I should try to copy on my computer the /home/user/.cache/tracker/meta.db ? Thanks a lot for your help. In fact it would be nice to be able to have like on computers a restore tool of erased data :) |

My messages are missing as well, and new messages sent and received will not be shown.:confused: |
Re: HELP, please: N9 all messages gone. Disappeared!
OK, I found a solution. I did not regain all messages, but at least new messages are being stored.

I'm afraid that if the db file is missing then the messages are really gone unless you could have recovered it with an undelete application. (I have not ever tried that but it might be possible if the db has been erased, dont know about now when you have managed to recreate it) |

Hmm look through tracker logs to see why your messages and call logs disappear every few hours, its very strange for them to keep disappearing.
Logs located at /home/user/.local/share/tracker/ Once you have all your data its better for once you reset tracker (tracker-control -r) and let it begin again. |

tracker-miner-fs.log is 59.29kb tracker-store.log is 12.20 kb tracker-writeback.log is 0b the data folder is 4kb Does one of those have my messages which I can extract from? :confused: |
Re: HELP, please: N9 all messages gone. Disappeared!
Nope your messages are in a database located at /home/user/.cache/tracker/meta.db most probably... The logs are to see what's happening to tracker actually...

27 20:50 meta.db -rw-r--r-- 1 user metadata 10240000 Feb Does the size determine how much is stored in it? |
Re: HELP, please: N9 all messages gone. Disappeared!
Yup of course the bigger the database the more the contents :D
Have you tried using this to export your messages? |

Get your stuff out once and do a tracker reset with deleting meta.db too and then see how it goes...

Re: HELP, please: N9 all messages gone. Disappeared!
I restored my messages contacts from back up last night and now they are all deleted again. . . . . .

Re: HELP, please: N9 all messages gone. Disappeared!
What helps for me in this case is the terminal and then:
killall messaging-ui Then go into your messages, wait about 30 seconds and it reloads the messages. Its a awfull bug and i once deleted my complete phone when only this simple command got them back. I didn't know back then. |
Re: HELP, please: N9 all messages gone. Disappeared!
I can't seem to find any messages. I Nokia Suite to sync content and apparently, messages are still there, it's just that "Messages" won't display them. Every new message vanishes as well, but appears in Nokia Suite when I sync content. What do I do...?
Rebooting didn't help. |
Re: HELP, please: N9 all messages gone. Disappeared!
My whole contacts data, messages and feeds as well disappeared without a reasonable argument. I can't even distinguish which might had been the cause.
I've already QADcleaned and rebooted my PR1.3 updated 16 GB Black device. Can't figure it out for almost a week now not even begin to diagnose it, nor find a similar case for troubleshooting. Almost every homescreen feed is missing also. I can't read a *.TXT file... and I might ocassionaly find camera issues... Any help is welcome. PS: Haven't made a recent backup from Settings, neither from the Phone Company. |
Re: HELP, please: N9 all messages gone. Disappeared!
@lacro, I sent you a PM.

If Nokia Suite is able to show your messages, what you should do is back them all up via Nokia Suite then do a tracker reset and restore them to your phone.
This problem usually happens due to a corruption in the way messaging-ui reads from the tracker db and since this is closed, there is no proper fix other than the above. To reset tracker type the following in terminal: Code:
tracker-control -r |

Re: HELP, please: N9 all messages gone. Disappeared!
HI to all..
I want to share how I restored my contacts/messages/call-history, maybe it will be usefull for someone... Yesterday it was my first time, since I purchased my N9 (2 years ago), that I stuck without contacts/messages/call-history... Sometimes it happened before, but was always solved quickly.. Yesterday just nothing worked - reboot/shutdown/full-refresh/restart-some-processes/killall-apps, nothing... I had last system backup from one month ago, but it enough for me, because I didn't update contacts in this period and last messages not so important for me... The method: 1. Create new folder in /home/user/MyDocs/.backups named like system one, for example "Backup1" 2. Copy to this folder 3 files from your original backup folder: Code:
backup.metadata Code:
<backup-metadata> Code:
<backup-metadata> * line 3: Code:
<size>111882711</size> = contacts <size>108900691</size> + messaging <size>2982020</size> Code:
<number-of-files>70482</number-of-files> = contacts <number-of-files>70374</number-of-files> + messaging <number-of-files>108</number-of-files> Just change name to what you want for finding it easily... 5. Disable internet connection. I also switched off (disabled) all 4 my email accounts from the setting like suggested here by thedead1440 (thanks). 6. Open terminal and run: Code:
tracker-control -r 8. Open Gallery, Music, Video applications and leave them for a few min, when it will finish, you will see all your photos, music, video.. 9. Open system backup: Setting -> Sync & backup -> Backup -> choose your new backup -> run restore. When it will finish, phone will reboot itself and you will find your contacts, call-history and messages where they should be.. Worked for me very good, it also saved all contacts parameters (ringtone, mails, facebook...) :D |
Re: HELP, please: N9 all messages gone. Disappeared!
My messages were not showing up once, restarting didn't make a difference. Re installed messages app and it worked.
Just thought I would throw that one out there. |
Re: HELP, please: N9 all messages gone. Disappeared!
I figured I would post here instead of making an entire topic.
Sometimes while I have my N9 in my pocket dormant, I will hear the SMS tone and I will pull the phone out and see the message notification and slide to see it, but the message is not there, and all I see is the previous messages it will then take a while to update and I will hear the click or pop noise and magically the sms I got a while ago is now in the message thread this happens quite a bit and makes it frustrating while trying to have multiple conversations with different people. the only thing that seems to help is if I click the messages button in all the threads and have a single messages app open. Any thoughts on this? |
