Re: n900 conversations disappearing!!!
 
hey all,

im experiencing this problem again..

iv tried doing everything and it still keeps not working


i would send an sms, and it would show that the msg is still waiting to send... and it stays this way (but the sms actually is already sent)
and when i close conversations and reopen, everything is gone and its no longer in chronological order

last time the only way i fixed it was to restore a backup..
i dont want to do this because i will lose all my highscores!!! NOOOO!


i understand its because some corrupt data or something is going on...
but does anyone know what could be causing this? and how to prevent it?

First gain root access:
Code:
sudo gainroot
..then switch to the target directory:
Code:
cd .rtcom-eventlogger
Now dump the contents of the existing database to a raw SQL file:
Code:
sqlite3 el-v1.db .dump > el-v1.db.sql
Restore the SQL to a new database:
Code:
sqlite3 el-v1.db.new < el-v1.db.sql
You may ignore SQL errors at this stage; they occur due to corruption in the source.

Now overwrite the broken DB (you may wish to back up the original file):
Code:
cp el-v1.db.new el-v1.db
Finally, ensure that the file is owned by 'user' and is in the 'users' group so it may be read by Conversations
Code:
chown user el-v1.db
chgrp users el-v1.db
Now close and re-open your Conversations app - the changes should be immediate!

Hope this helps,

Alex
With this keep both my send and received messages. One guy said it loses the sent messages.

If the problem returns, I've created a simple "script-launcher" to do the same steps automatically in a couple of seconds ;):

Re: n900 conversations disappearing!!!
 
I have been having this issue for about a week now, and I do all the steps again and again and again. I have been having to do this everyday..... and its always because of one contacts conversation, which I txt a lot. I have even re-flashed the device including the EMMC but second day from re-flash this happened again. Is there any other solution to this? It is driving me nuts... because everytime I restart the phone I get ~30 messages and it does not include my replies, I close that and nothing is there in conversation app. I even deleted the whole database to start fresh but it is still not logging anything.
any other solution to this?

Re: n900 conversations disappearing!!!
 
I am experiencing sth that looks very much like this issue.
All conversations disappeared. everything else seems normal. Please help me investigate this.
Last I received an sms, with a preview visible in the task manager, but that may have been an sms that I already got yesterday. tapping it got me to the empty conversations home screen...
hav rebooted twice also changed the battery
nothing :-(
I'm not sure any of the solutions here, working for one or another user, still apply for the current CSSU - I'm running Testing, thumb compiled.
Will be glad for suggestions. Here's the bug that was raised, status unconfirmed:

Thanks Ben
