N9 loses my SMS (corrupted database)
Hi all, I know the N9 is old stuff by now but I still use it daily. However, I am having a huge problem with SMS and skype messages, I got 28 today (it shows the amount on the screensaver) but when I slide out to see the messages, it shows none. I have already lost lots of messages. I have tried using tracker-control --hard-reset, and it showed that:
Code:
[14:37] [367] [user@n9 user]# tracker-control --hard-reset Code:
[14:58] [369] [user@n9 developer]# smsbackuprestore export /home/user/MyDocs/mymessages.csv /var/log/syslog shows stuff like this: Code:

Re: N9 loses my SMS (corrupted database)
I was able to sort of "fix" the issue by running as user "user" and "root" then running tracker-control -r... But I've lost all my SMS. :-(

That's what "tracker-control -r" does, it wipes all databases and starts with empty storages.
It is the last resort you should ever try, after that your messages and contacys are gone forever. |
Re: N9 loses my SMS (corrupted database)
Hi guys
Im using a Nokia N9 and my messages are corrupted. when I get a message from someone I cannot see who sent the message coz the inbox just picks a different contact at random and puts as the sender, its quite confusing |
Re: N9 loses my SMS (corrupted database)
I have also lost a bunch of messages on my N9. A friend of mine lost all his contacts too

Re: N9 loses my SMS (corrupted database)

Re: N9 loses my SMS (corrupted database)
hey, i have weak evidence for a possible cause.
so this had never happened to me, until last week. i gave my old n9 to my girlfriend, and the only thing i did to it was set up facebook for her. two days later, no sms in Messages. fortunately, smsbackuprestore could read them. happened again about 4 days later. so, do you folks use facebook on your n9? for those that had your horse stolen, its time to lock the barn door. run vcardexporter and smsbackuprestore and callbackuprestore nightly. |
Re: N9 loses my SMS (corrupted database)
i don't use facebook and never had problem like that.

Re: N9 loses my SMS (corrupted database)
thanks saleki, one more piece of weak evidence for the hypothesis. bettwe would be users that actually have this problem confirming that they use facebook.
better still would be someone declaring that they HAVE the problem and have NEVER used facebook on their n9; this would be really strong evidence against. |
Re: N9 loses my SMS (corrupted database)
I have an N9 that might have has facebook one day (not sure) and i lost some messages. I checked now and found that the account is not there.
The reason which makes me think it has had fb is because I think I restored a backup which contained a facebook account on that phone. |
