I've been trying to flash custom 2.2 ROMs onto a friend's X10a and have repeatedly encountered "com.android.phone" crashes. (I've previously flashed many ROMs so I've been through the usual debugs: crash system server, etc.)
The baseband flash is successful (no "unknown baseband" issues) and WiFi, GPS and Bluetooth all work.
I've tried the following combinations of Iris (Froyo) v1.7.3 on:
Firmware 504: .49, .52, .54
Firmware 435: .61, .67
All wipes (system, cache, data, Dalvik, battery) are performed before flashing the custom ZIP. System server is crashed at least 3 times on each trial to allow the ROM to settle and radio to activate but no dice. :-(
Scenarios tested:
No SIM: loads fine
- power off, insert non-data SIM, boot: repeated com.android.phone crashes, ROM unusable (crash system server, factory reset, no effect)
Non-data SIM: repeated com.android.phone crashes, ROM unusable
- connect to WiFi, restart, still com.android.phone crashes despite working browser and other Internet applications
Data SIM: loads fine
- restart with non-data SIM: com.android.phone crashes
- restart with data SIM: fully functional
- activate airplane mode, restart with non-data SIM, no crashes
- deactivate airplane mode, repeated crashes, unusable
Any help or insight is appreciated.
Repair his phone with SEUS, then try reflashing the ROM without a simcard.
Op you should know not to post question in the wrong section

First and foremost, a huge thank you to all of you who have helped to make the Atrix the phone it should be. You guys f*****g rock!
Now, as the title says the phone process stopping unexpectedly. I've tried wiping the cache, factory reset. Reinstalling the rom. I went to apps and wiped the email data. Disabled auto synchronization. Fixed permissions. Sacrificed a lamb. This only seems to happen to me when I install an AT&T GB rom (Kenneth's rom, Nav's Pie Crust, etc)
Currently I'm using Pie crust, and the issue persists.
Is there anything else I can do?
Radio is 1 77 30P
I'm running Revamped SS (1.8.19) on my vibrant and I'm having a weird force close issue. I get a com.android.phone error about every 2 or 3 seconds unless I'm in airplane mode. When I'm not in airplane mode I still can't get any cell reception. I can't even access the mobile networks option in the settings. I tried taking the SIM out and still it's the same. I've tried rebooting, clearing all caches, removing task killers, flashed a different modem, and even reflashed my entire ROM, doing a system format. I've also wiped dalvik cache and fixed permissions. Please send me any suggestions. I need my phone to be working and this is extremely frustrating..
i think you'll have to do a factory wipe/reset inside CWM. also, don't use the 2g/3g toggle widget, as the FC on android phone will happen. (known issue)
Hello
I have problem after install new official 2.3.4 rom KH3 and KH1. No 3g connection
When i try add NEW APN i have crash window SORRY: process com.android.settings force closed.
I already try trick with APN backup and restore , no changes. .
Phone now CSC XEU. before it was 2.3.3 it MOT (unlocked and rooted )and modem BUKG1
any help ,maybe root and some operations with files ?
More info
After change CSC to any other ( code 272 ) and reboot 3g started and no problem with add new APN. After next reboot error return back and no 3g
Hi Filant,
I was having same problem. Getting error on clicking on ADD apn. Would loose APN everytime I switch phone off, and be unable to add APN !! Only solution was a factory reset and not switching phone off...
Phone is galaxy s2. Problem started on updating firmware to 2.3.4.
The solution I found is to go into applications and find app simtoolkit. Force stop this and then go back into your APN settings and it should work. You may need to turn data - Use Packet Data on and off, and possibly manually select the network operator. Have lost track of exactly how these were set.
I guess my problem is that I have a very old SIM card (8yrs plus).
Hope this works for you as well - it was driving me crazy

APN error: process com.android.settings force close
Hi Tino, Hi Filant, I have started to face the same problem (APN error / completely lost 3G data) right after upgrading from 2.3.4. to firmware 2.3.5, the information mentioned on Tino's post was really very helpful, I think i'm half way there to solve the problem.
although I restored my phone to factory settings (that was before reading the post), same problem occurred after the first reboot. the question now, do i have to contact my network operator and change the SIM card as i think it is also quite old, will this help in solving the problem, i'm really bothered, i was having hell of problems with S1 and now hard times with S2, gonna lose my mind, and i would like to know what you have done both to overcome this issue
Apn error
Hi all, I've changed the old SIM card, and I'm no more facing this problem no matter if I restarted the phone or even removed the SIM and put it back. It's all OK now
I'm having this same problem. I can go to mobile networks and when i click on apn it force closes.. It opens up the apn window. (nothing is shown) and after like 3 seconds i get this message - "The application settings (process com.android.setttings) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again. I'm using the samsung rugby smart phone. Unrooted. COMPLETELY STOCK running 2.3.6.. Baseband version I847UCLA4.. Kernal version 2.6.35.7 ... Build number GINGERBREAD.UCLA4... I put it in airplane mode then turn it off. I turn data on then off. I reset phone. I've hard reset. The phone shows the mobile data connection up top (E, 4G, 3G) it shows that and the arrows light up as if its processing but I try to access the web and will not work. Even the apn apps on the play store don't even work. They force close or don't even work. Please help me!!

Edit. Sorry to bring up an old post I just noticed but I'm having this problem BTW I'm trying to run the rugby on straight talk.
Hello everybody!
I was on ultimate v8 when my phone started rebooting in recovery without any reason, and entering recovery.if i restarted the phone i didn't had signal.
the phone worked properly without the sim card (tried two cards, it had this problem with both of them)
i thought it was a rom issue, so i flashed the stock rom, relocked the bootloader and used sony update service to repair my phone.
i didn't install any applications, and for a couple of hours it worked normally. afterwards though it lost signal again and started rebooting.
did a clean install again with no results.
any ideas what how should i procceed? is there any way to fix it or shoud i visit a service point?
ps sometimes it seems that sim cards are not properly recognised. it's not that it has the sign, that shows that there is no sim card, however sometimes i restart the phone and it doesn't ask for the pin code

hmm...do a factory reset using cwm then flash stock ICS .54 rom & see it works or not.
i've wiped data, cleaned cache, dalvik cache etc many times while i was on ultimate. i've also flashed the stock and did factory reset via the menu in the phone as well via sony update service... i was thinking of flashing radio, but couldn't find the file...
I have infocus epic 1 device and its standby is terrible from the day of purchase(>2.5%/*h).It stays awake 100% of time.I rooted the phone on sole purpose of fixing it.after doing some research now i am sure it's something related to radio layer interface because when i don't install sim card mobile goes deep sleep 98% of time.better battrey stat show's kernel wakelock ttyC0 as main culprit.i think com.android.phone is the reason behind it.i have found one tedious solution to fix it.first i ve to freeze the package com.android.phone pluck the sim out restart the phone put sim back in and defreeze the package.but rebooting the phone again starts the problem.but i want to completely fix it without need to do so.also it would be hepful if i can some how block mandatory restart after inserting sim in the sim slot so i dont have to freeze and defreeze the package com.android.phone
I think you should try a (few) different SIM card(s). It may be the card itself that causes problems.
Then, I’d reboot the phone, after entering the PIN, wait a minute of so for everything to initialize, and then check dmesg (aka the kernel/driver log), or even logcat for that time period.
Also, if you can, try making a complete backup image of your system (all partitions), and
1. try a factory reset of your phone (ideally flashing the original system on there after the factory reset), or even
2. flash an older Android (6? 4.4?),
and see if the problem exists there too.
You should be able to find the newest/best case where it works, vs the oldest/worst case where it doesn't, and then look at what’s different between the two (with some graphical diff tool, using dmesg and logcat output among other things, for example) , especially with regard to your problem, to find the answer.
