Hi,

I have an unusual problem with my N900 after I rebooted 3 days back.

Now,

1) I can't open/see Contacts.
It says : Internal error. Application 'Contacts' will be closed.
2) No SMS are stored in conversation.
3) No call log is stored.
4) Yappari messages are not stored.
5) Application Manager shows 'No application stored'.

However, I am able to store files using USB and also read them via USB.

All call logs, conversations stored before rebooting are shown when opened.

Has anyone faced this before, or knows how to get rid of this.

Thanks a lot.

P.S. I have tried clearing device, flashing.

Try flashing the FIASCO image. That should solve any partition corruption.

please, give your output of "mount" command from terminal. It looks like your OptFS become read-only? But then, reflashing would fail to re-create optfs (in case of hardware malfunction, causing read-only).

You said you've tried reflashing - how come, then, that your messages from before reboot are shown? After full FIASCO reflash, they should get nuked.

@aGent47, it looks like you have a file system corruption and your optfs partition was mounted as read-only. You can save files via USB because that's on a different partition. You can try installing BackupMenu and choose 'create backup' first and then 'fsck all partitions' from the boot menu. If that doesn't work then I'm afraid flasing the MMC is your only chance. Please note that this will wipe everything; your installed applications, contacts, calendar, calls and conversation history, photo and music collection...

Edit: Estel beat me to it.
