Hey guys, strange problem with my son's Hero. Short version: Force closes on incoming calls wirh new 8GB sd card.
Although I have gotten pretty good at figuring out many things on the Hero, this one has me stumped, so I/we would appreciate some help.
Although the phone is rooted with Fresh 2.3.3, I doubt that is the cause here, as my Hero is also rooted with 2.3.3 and I am using an 8GB class 6 card in mine with no issues. But I thought it was important to mention it anyway. If need be, this post/thread can be moved to the all things root sub forum.
He bought and installed a new 8GB class 6 micro sd card. Formatted it in his phone, then, after having copied all his data from the old card to his computer, he then copied it all back onto the new card. He can view his pictures and listen to music, he can make out-bound cslls, but when he receives an incoming call, he gets a mesage something like "process android.phone has unexpectedly quit', and of course, the only option is to click Force Close. Then he has to reboot the phone to be able to use it for anything. Putting the stock 2GB card back in returns the phone to normal behavior.
This has been very hard for us to troubleshoot, as he doesn't live near me, and we each only have the Hero as our only phone. After quite some time without any positive results, we figured it was a bad sd card and returned it.
He then bought a different brand sd card, Kingston, 8gb class 4, and after the same data transfer process, he experiences the exact same behavior on incoming calls!
Any ideas or help??? I will probably be driving out to see him tomorrow (Tuesday) to try to figure this out with him.
Thanks!
