Hu guys,
i was googling for some hours but couldnt find a soltuion to this. Everytime i install ANY app on my new sgs2 and reboot I get the following error message:
The application Status Bar (process com.android.systemui) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.
I get the message twice and then the bar is gone. When i dont press force close I see the bar just working perfectly in the background.
Only solution is factory reset, but as soon i install apps (no matter which) i start getting the same problems.
Thinking of returning the phone

Can you post what's in the 'About Phone's screen, what network you're using and where you bought your phone.

Try a reflash as i only got that problem when i pushed systemui.apk and didnt reboot straight after. Sounds like a corruption somewherw

the problem was when ever i made the inital configuration i ticked the box to sync my google config. my google config was from my old sgs1 which must have corrupted my phone. i reset the phone and unticked the google config option and i dont have the problem anymore.
Ahhh!!! I got the same problem!!! Is there any way to fix this? Anyone?
marcie82, i'm having the same problem and your post was the only post I found that addresses the issue. When you wrote that you've reset your phone, did you mean you reflashed it?
I just got the same phone from amazon.. and it worked fine when i first opened it but then the task bar disappeared..
i reset it back to original factory settings.. it's downloading my old apps now.. i'll keep on debugging this thing until something comes up
A buddy of mine had a similar issue, for him it was com.android.phone that kept randomly crashing, sometimes mid-call and thereby terminating the call.
We tried factory reset and other things as well, nothing helped.
So we ended up re-flashing the FW (he was on KE2 and we flashed a stock KE7), that is now ~2 weeks ago and he never had any crashes anymore since then.
So, long story short, try reflashing (a maybe newer) FW with odin, factory once more (if the ROM doesn't do it while flashing) and see if it gets any better.
Also check the CSC setting, we set it to generic XEU after the flash - use w/e suits your region/FW.
installing applications
i noticed that as soon as i go to google market and click on the 'my apps' button.. it starts downloading all the apps i previously purchased automatically.. is there a way to prevent that from happening?
Settings -> Privacy
"Back uo my data" and "Automatic restore"
untick at least the auto-restore, or the auto-backup too, maybe that helps.
I got both disabled by default (first thing I set after a wipe) and it never tried to restore my apps by itself (yay for AppBackupAndRestore ).
could it be a specific application?
debugging progress: i noticed that it's not installing *any* app that causes this task bar thing disappearing (at least not in my case):
i restored my phone to factory default.. then i disabled my automatic restore and defaults. then i installed only one app from my very long list of apps. (for some reason i had to do it from my 3g connection and not wifi.. but that's a different problem)..
anyways i installed it and it worked just fine! i restarted my phone just to make sure and the task bar is still there!
i'm gonna go through my apps ans install them one by one.. i know it's a painstaking process but hey i gotta give back to the android community

A trick I used in a similar situation was the following :
Use Titanium Backup. U make a backup of the application that has the problem. Then u wipe the data of this application and then u restore the data.
For me that trick miraculoussly solved that problem ...

Had the same problem with not working phone/contacts, freezing like "process com.android.phone - Force Close" etc.
I realized the error happens only after upgrading for example to KG, than after a short period making a backup of the whole system, downgrading to KF, then restoring with Titanium Backup.
It restores the whole system, including settings, and accounts and so on. This might be the problem. It seems nobody realized that the MODEM and PHONE is upgraded too, so there might be some components not compatible with earlier versions.
Solution: restore only user apps & data, not the system settings. Use a separate app for SMS, call logs, contacts or calendar. Do a cache wipe and then a fact reset from MENU+UP+POWER (restore menu), then reinstall your choice of firmware, restore user apps&data with Titanium or anything preferred, then enter/restore everything else manually. No problem when upgrading.
Tested, had 3 sleepless nights, but works for me.
Noob in need of androidized kindle help!
Hey ya'll,
I just rooted and downloaded ics4 onto my kindle. It was working great all day and I used the gba emulator for android and everything.
Now, for some reason I keep getting the error "unfortunately, system UI has stopped working".The tool bar on the bottom of the screen with the home and back buttons aren't even there anymore. I have rebooted and gone into TWRP and done a system reboot and everything yet that keeps happening. Why do you think that is ?
caused by Titanium

I am sure the problem caused by restore system data by Titanium. I have tried four times today. Factory reset and flash and restore. Only when I restore system data caused this problem.
Why resurrect a two year old thread?
For information, restoring apps WILL NOT cause instability......restoring data ESPECIALLY data from system apps WILL.
RULE OF THUMB......
If you are upgrading your android OS (eg...ICS to JB).....
DO NOT restore system app data....ever
For user apps....if the app runs as soon as you open it, you *should* be ok to re-install the data.
If the app requires the downloading of 'additional files' on first run, DO NOT re-install as this data is likely to be OS version specific......
My wife says I'm a phone geek....She's probably right
Due to an update of an Xposed module, I had badly corrupted my systemui. The phone was totally unusable, and I could only press the OK button notifying the stopped event at startup.
Lucky me, I still had not updated to 4.4.3. Via Skipsoft Android Toolkit I updated to the last Android release, and my systemui got fixed. I did not choose to do a complete wipe, so I actually maintained my previous apps. In relation to root, I did not loose it, but I had to reinstall SuperSU to get the non-official apps working again.
I hope this helps somebody else in my same condition, with no need to do a system wipe!
com.android.systemui stops working when battwry gets less then 16 %
Hi guys ,
Can anyone upload the system ui file for android KitKat?
I tried all things to fix "Unfortunately com.android.system ui. Has stopped working when battery gets lower then 16% so I think I should replace the system ui file from system app folder
Hey everyone, I just had this same problem pop up onto my phone while I was checking my messages. Ive never rooted my Motorola Droid Razr HD and the power button is jammed at the moment as well. Is there a way around this problem or is this phone done for?
Maybe you should try increasing the heapsize in the build.prop file, the no. of notifications in the status bar causes this crash. if you want to know more about the heapsize etc. google for this crash in cyanogenmod fourms.
Today I tried the CM9 ICS ROM from this thread on my galaxy tab 10.1. Before installing it, I did a backup in CWM. I then tried out ICS and reverted back to my old honeycomb after a few hours (basically because of the missing camera and no youtube HD).
Problem is, now all my google apps seem to have no internet connection even though I'm connected (Browser works, Twitter aswell). I'm guessing that all the apps that were in that ICS build have no connection now that I reverted back to the old version. This makes my tablet basically useless and I haven't been able to fix this on my own.
I tried to delete /cache aswell as the dalvik cache in CWM. Deleting all user data didn't help either. Reinstalling the apps is not possible because the market can't connect either (I deleted all market updates and pulled the apk from the internets, still no connection)
I have DroidWall installed and tried to reset the settings there, no luck. Even disabling it completely didn't help.
I'd be grateful for any help concerning this.
You could try flashing a gapps package: http://goo-inside.me/gapps.
Thanks, but I just wiped the whole thing and did a factory reset. That did the trick.
Is there any way to update the galaxy tab tmobile 4G Google Apps without clock work mod?
I don't have access to a PC and I'm stuck with stock firmware...
My gmail crashes every time that I receive a email... I've already tried to restore factory settings but no luck... Really sucks having an error message on almost every email received.
Is there any gmail apk that I could install? Or for that I would need root access?
Yes you need root access, to delete---
Wait, why don't you clear cache? Settings->Applications->Gmail->Clear Cache
That should reset everything about the app.
If that fails, then you need root because there is no other way to remove a system app.
Also what caused it to suddenly have a brain fart?
Misledz, already tried that...
I even tried to factory reset... A few days later (an tons of apps reinstalled), the problem is back...
My market (now G.Play) is faulty too. Sometimes the app MyApps crashes to, usually when I launch market app.
I really want to try a diferent ROM (I use CM7 on my phone), but the lack of a PC is a major problem.
I don´t have any program directly related to GMail (no widgets related, nothing)...
You need CWM at this point, there is no other way to get it done :| As far a I know you need to install the gapps via CWM. If factory reset didnt work then you have a corrupt system that needs to be reflashed/fixed/updated.
I've just update gmail using Aptoide, só far só good...
So I just finished formatting my SD card using CWM. After that, I did a factory reset, etc, then flashed HASA MIUI. After that, I flashed INT2EXT+. And then the Dalvik Cache Wipe Tool on that thread too. After booting up the phone and installing some apps (QuickPic, MX Player, Greenify), I tried rebooting the phone. While it was booting up again, it showed me "Optimizing applications." along with the number of aplications in my phone. When I reached the home screen, none of the apps I installed are there only the system apps remain. I tried restarting again and this time, it didn't show me the "Optimizing applications.". Instead it booted right away to the home screen. Now my apps are back there.
However, whenever I install a new app and then restart my phone, it keeps doing the "Optimizing applications." once and then again all my installed apps are missing on the home screen. Restarting a second time brings them back. Is this the way the script is supposed to function?
Also, after some fiddling around, my installed apps are suddenly having problems, either force closing or not responding or simply not opening at all. Even after clearing data and cache, the problematic apps still don't get resolved. What fixes it is to uninstall it then redownload it from the Play Store again.
This is the first time I tried using scripts so I'd really appreciate if someone can tell me why these things are happening.
My phone is an Xperia ST17i (Active) with the Kappa 1.6 kernel and the recovery installed is CWM 6.0.3.1K.
Hi everyone.
Since sunday, my GS5 (SM-G900T) keeps crashing all the apps and services, like google play services, touchwiz, whatsapp (i've had to restore it inumerous times), calendar, keyboard and others.
I downgraded to 4.4 kitkat and the problem is still there. I upgraded back to lollipop 5.0, and even when i was about the begin the initial setup, appeared the message, "unfortunatelly, setup has stopped". This message appears to various apps that keep crashing.
I think it's some kind of virus, but it's not in my SD Card (i formatted), it's not in my device storage. Is there any possibility of a virus in the batterry or any other part of the GS5?
I'm kinda desperate here, does anyone know what is this and how to solve it?
Thanks.
Have you cleared your user data using stock recovery?

Do you mean the wipe/factory reset via recovery? I did that and wiped the cache partition either. Another issue i just noticed is that my device is overheating. Since I started typing this, touchwiz crashed 3x, Samsung keyboard once, and rebooted 2x.
