[Q] Samsung galaxy continuous Force Close help - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi I have a samsung galaxy s2 and yesterday i received a message and then my phone froze and vibrated continuously so i pulled the battery out, since then when i turned my phone on i get continuous force close messages on everything especially something like "The application Logs Provider (process.com.sec.android.provider.logsprovider) has stopped unexpectedly please try again".
Phone is unrooted and no new apps were installed prior to the fault i can sometimes get in to the settings menu but cannot connect to usb as the messages keep on popping up.
Is there anyway i can recover the data on the internal memory on my phone?
Thanks.

[Q] com.android.settings not working

Hi Al,
Yesterday after update (Settings\About\Check for update) I'm not able to access settings screen, I have done factory reset twice already but it is still the same.
I'm not able to connect to the Kies, because I believe USB debugging is on, and I cannot turn it off because I can't get to settings. So my PC not recognizing phone now, so any update is impossible. Phone have never been rooted and it is Vodafone UK.
The fault: The application com.android.settings (process com.android.settings) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again
Any ideas how to resolved without sending to service?
Thanks for any help

So, you can start recovery mode, as you said that you have done factory reset twice.
I think that download mode (Volume DOWN + Home + Power, then Volume UP for proceeding) will work too.
I suggest to flash stock ROM (as you want to connect to KIES) to your phone.
If you have not done it so far, please have a look at Intratech's Official Firmware thread => http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278
In the first post, he described the procedure very detailed and understandable IMO.
You can download latest official ROM from the second post or a Frankenstein ROM (is nearly the same as the official / stock ROM, but prepared for combining with any Modem and/or CSC files) from the third post.
I prefer Frankenstein ROMs.
Nearly every ROM in Intratech's thread is non-wipe.
Download and install Odin.
Put the downloaded ROM (extract it with 7zip will result in a tar or md5 file) into PDA section of Odin connect your phone started in download mode to the PC.
Wait for all phone drivers to become active (make sure that KIES is no longer running), and a yellow box will be shown in Odin.
Then just Start flashing the new ROM to your phone.
Once you have done it this way, you won't use KIES any more.
Good luck !
I did exactly as you said and Is working perfectly. I like it some much, so I decided to rooted and flashed with CyanogenMod, also went smothly, without any problmes.
Thanks again!
settings stopped working
I also have had the same problem after the latest update. I discovered yesterday , that if I disabled the blue tooth function, the settings stated working. I have repeatedly tried this, and it so far works everytime. When I turn the bluetooth back on, I again get the error message.

[Q] Freezing Issues When WIFI Is On

Hey guys,
I have Samsung Galaxy S II I9100 with a custom LPU rom (with speedmod kernel).
My phone freezes when I update apps using google store and when I watch videos on youtube's app (both when WIFI is on).
Sometimes, it also freezes when I just turn WIFI on.
The phone freezes for about half a minute and then it goes back to home screen.
What can I do?
Do you thing it's a rom related problem?
Thanks!

Hi!
It could be a ROM related problem.. what particular custom ROM are you on? I doubt it's a Kernel related problem, there's still a possibility..
1. try wiping dalvik cache/ caches / better yet restore factory settings, if it doesn't work..
I suggest you flash back to stock firmware to get it all sorted out and from there, you can start all over..
I hope this helps, cheers
This is a translated ROM (based on this) that includes some mods
The problem has started a week after flashing this rom.
I tried wiping dalvik cache / caches, but google store still makes my phone freeze.
Can you detail more about flashing back to stock firmware?

[Q] Galaxy S3 crashing and auto restarting

Hi
I have a galaxy S3 GT-I9300 running Android 4.1.2 and for the past week or so it keeps crashing and also randomly turning itself on and off. I have removed all apps I have put on it in the last few weeks but this hasn't solved the problem. I also normally have power saving mode turned on but have turned this off as I though this might help but it didn't. I only have a fw extra apps installed and they are all popular ones so cant see that been the problem, I have a few songs on and about 3200 photos on it so was wondering if I have too many photos on it. The time at when the phone crashes or turns itself off is random n happens when im using any app and sometimes I it turning itself back on even though it hasnt even been used. This is a real annoyance for me and highly inconvenient so any help would me most appreciated. I am trying to avoid doing a hard reset as I dont want to have to set up the phone again and load on my apps n stuff. If anyone knows how to fix it or any ideas on what might work please let me know and if I havent given enough info please feel free to ask me more questions.
Thanks in Advance.

Factory reset from settings menu (backup your internal sd card to your pc first) and see if the problem still happens before you install any apps etc. You might benefit from updating to the latest stock rom via odin, read the sticky guides in general on how to do this.

[Q] S6 Edge keeps random rebooting after OTA update MM 6.0.1 update

Hey guys,
since 2-3 weeks i'm using the 6.0.1 official version which i got via OTA update (everything original on my phone, no root, no flashing any software) for my international S6 Edge.
First i noted havy battery drain and uninstalled a few apps. A weather widge forced the heacy battery drain and my phone worked fine.
Since 4 Days i have problems with random reboots. It started with some reboots a day and now it keeps rebooting after i unlocked sim card and want to use my phone. I managed to put my phone in flight mode and i were able to make a backup of my userdata via samsung smartswitch. I initialized the phone via the software and it flashed the newest version. After it finished it booted up and in the language selection screen it keeps rebooting.
I read about corrupted files due update from version 5.x to 6.0.1 and thought to wipe the phone and flash newest software via smartswitch would fix the problem but my phone is not usable anymore.
Maybe you have any advice for me?
Thanks for your further help!

Hi borth87
As it won't get worst, I suggest to flash a clean Stock version.
From SamMobile find the latest firmware for your device model.
After, for the download, I suggest you to use:
[TOOL] SamFirm - Samsung firmware downloader & checker
Just provide Model+Region and it will find you the newer firmware available. Please, before download, check the boxes: CRC32 & Decrypt
Flash the above using the lastest Odin v3.11.1
- Open Odin
- Reboot Phone in Download Mode (press and hold Home + Power + Volume Down buttons)
- Connect phone and wait until you get a blue sign in Odin
- Add the firmware file downloaed to AP / PDA
- Make sure re-partition is NOT ticked
- Click the start button, sit back and wait few minutes
Let us know your path.
Nice regards.

Will the flashing via odin touch the knox warranty?

Hi B
No. Just flashing Sammobile firmwares via ODIN will NOT trip knox.
Have fun.

Hi.
I has the same problem. I tried to flash all of firmwares (always STOCK), but it's failed with ODIN all times. Samsung Smart Switch PC software say system repair succesfull (with emergency update repair), but the problem keep joke with me.
Phone don't repond without charger. With PC connection, i don't allow to run restore mode, only ODIN mode. With Wall charger adapter, i allow to run restore mode, odin mode, safe system mode, normal system, but i wiped cache, i do factory reset, i rebooted in bootloader and rebooted system as normal. When i run system in normal mode, language selection show up, and when i press next, phone reboot. When i run system in safe mode, i can select my language, and i can connect to my WiFi, but after i press NEXT at wifi list, phone reboot.
So in safe mode i able to do more one step, but system keep rebooting. Charging screen show battery at 89-90% all times, system start updating battery status from 1% to 100% (1 percent/ 1.5 sec).
Some times red-green-blue-purple rows show at Samsung logo and i got bootloop. Like when i put off my battery from my old phone.

Samsung S7 shuts down

Hello, I have a Samsung S7. It boots up fine, you go into APP's or messages, pictures, but after 10 or 15 seconds it reboots or and or, it never operates normally. I would like to know if there is a way to fix the phone. Or if there is a way I can get all the information off the phone. Pictures and text messages.
I can't believe no one out there has had this problem. Can it be a battery problem? Can I load old firmware with ODIN? Any help would be great.

If you're unrooted , it's really strange to witness such an issue . Backup your stuff including the internal storage and then boot into recovery using the Vol UP + Home + Power button together . Scroll down to wipe data/reset . AFter it's complete .. reboot .
WARNING : This will wipe your phone completely including the internal storage . SO backup
If the above solution still doesn't work - FInd the latest firmware for your device from sammobile.com/firmware and flash it through odin
All set. Loaded the latest firmware this morning and I am all set.
