I get this message when I boot up.
I cannot access settings so I cannot perform a factory reset.
Is there any way to factory reset when you cannot access "Settings" because of constant force closes.
I am running stock but with lots of side-loaded apps.
I can access the file explorer. That is the only thing I can open that will remain open even though I get constant force close popups like "android.process.acore has stopped... android.process.media has stopped unexpectedly...
Is my gtab toast? Can it be saved or should I return it?
I get this all the time, with all the mods I do. Don't worry, your system is fixable.
For me, I use clockworkmod recovery .08. There's a "fix permissions" option and this always fixes the problem for me. It also allows a data wipe within recovery.
If you are 100% stock, you could try one of the stock ROM's here as well - that might get you working. You have a few options, here. Check out the FAQ in my signature. I'm actually posting up the new stock update that I pulled from TnT, today.
EDIT: Direct link the the stock ROM updates -- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=842000. You'd need to understand how to actually run these, which I mention in the FAQ section.
thx Roebeet, I was able to update to the new stock rom.
But I still have the same problem. Is there any other way to wipe my data. Can it be done while connected by usb or do i have to root it?
Is there any hardware button method to do a factory reset?
I still cannot open settings... it gets canceled by the force closes.
I am ready to give upon my G-Tab which I was enjoying so much.
Does anyone know how to wipe the date if you cannot open settings???
Try clockworkmod - it really is a great tool. You can find it in the Tnt Lite dev section as I have a link for .08.
For UID issues, "fix permissions" will correct it. And you can wipe data via clockworkmod as well. You can even remove it by flashing back to stock -- the latest stock firmware works as I've done it myself, the other day.
Btw, there are so many threads here that I sometimes miss replying. I dont ignore, I just might miss a post. Always feel free to PM me if you have a question.
I had a similar issue where something got corrupted in my user data and I was completely unable to start the settings or open the keyboard. I had to flash back to the full vanilla ROM because it contained clockworkmod, which was the only option available to accomplish a factory reset. That wasn't a fun day.
Think I figured out a key reason for sudden UID issues
People including me are getting UID errors even after having a stable rom and several reboots with no issues. Based on guinea piggin' my G, I can confirm the issues happen on apparently stable installs anytime you update a Google app.
Case in point, I updated Google Voice and Gmail and soon after I rebooted the G- UID city. I have started with a clean rom and installed many different apps to test. The only apps that hose the device at reboot are the GAPPS and it is not just if you update with the package. Simply updating from market will work fine, until you reboot and then it is a few minutes for trying to shut the device down and then perhaps two reboot attempts using fixed permissions.
TnT 2.20 (at least) does NOT like GAPP updates. How could VS bork this up so bad that fundamental apps for Android bork the device?
Again, the Tap UI team and who hired them and approved it on the Gtablet should be fired, rehired for a minute and then fired for good. Word.
This sounds kind of "preachy," but don't give up.
There is a learning curve to the G-Tablet, and it takes a good bit of reading on this site and assimilating the info.
I will testify that I had a hugely bad malfunction and and even worse fix on my tablet.
Using suggestions from helpful folk -- and carefully researching what I needed to do -- I was able to get my tablet back working just fine. To be sure, it's not stock any more!!! But I actually believe that with all I learned about flashing, mods, etc., I now could go back and make it stock again if I wanted to.
Don't give up. Just keep reading and researching the learning.

Not true for me, I installed the new Gmail from the Market with no problems. I am on TNTLite 2.2.1.
Google Voice has always been a hack for a tablet, since it is not actually phone. You might want to pull it out and see if your issues are solved.
I am back up and running thanks to clockwordmod. Thanks again!

Good to hear and thanks for the update!
I am currently having this problem. I am hoping to sell my 10" Android 2.2 Tablet PC on Craigslist... I need to fix this Error... I've only used it 10 times to play Angry Birds. The forum with the links I am confused as to what one to use... I am younger I must say. I am not a 21 year old "computer whiz"/.NET/OS maker... I do make websites. Besides that... I do not know how to "Wipe my system partition" as my Error message says to. Especially due to the fact I cannot open Settings. PLEASE HELP. I may have repeated things said above in his problems but I would like a "NOOB" walk through... (Because I am one). Please help. Thanks in advance. -Sophomoric
Hey, I had a same after my phone battery was empty and it turned off. I kept it off and recharged it, then I had the feeling "I'm feeling Lucky" -.-' so nice from google. xD
Had to wipe everything then full reinstall... such a pain.
Probably the cleanest solution HERE
I have no way of getting my phone to successfully download apps from the android marketplace. I went from bamf 1.6.3 to the unsigned mr1 stock rom, back to bamf and back to mr1 and nothing works for my phone.
I was thinking of reverting to stock and using my insurance to get a new thunderbolt to start new. Every time i tried to fix the problem i am having i would do a full wipe on my phone through cwr and install my rom then at startup i would link my google and or htcsense account but my phone will not allow me to download anything from the market.
Would verizon be able to tell that i rooted my phone if reverted back to stock, unrooted and claimed insurance?
Don't know if this will help, but have you gone to Applications->Manage->All and find Market & MarketUpdater, Force close them and delete data?
Did you also try using Market Doctor in Titanium Backup to see if that helps?

when you are installing your rom do you Wipe Data/ Wipe Cache/ wipe Dalvik (under advance tab)? To me it does not sound like a hardware issue. Also try airplane mode and use wifi to get to market and see if it would let you download something.

To answer this question: if you revert back to non-root, S-ON using a signed ROM and Radio, then no, they will never know.
Ok i did try the tips from nero, didn't work. Don't know what is causing this but monday i am going to stock and s-on and trade it in.
Ok to anyone that has ever had the problem where you couldn't download android market apps, i fixed my problem. I have no idea how i exactly fixed it but i will tell you everything i did before it worked right again. I formatted my sd card, system, data, cache in clockworkmod recovery. I then i installed my rom (bamf remix 1.6.3). I used titanium backups market doctor (it told me no links were found). I synced my google account, htc account and in my privacy settings i checked backup and restore. I synced my phone and let it finish before doings anything. I used my application settings to force close market app and updater then cleared data. Lastly i used super one click and re rooted my phone and then enabled non market apps.
What ever i did i fixed my problem, will link this to bamf remix thread and thank everyone that put up with and helped me
I had this same problem, and thought that I was screwed, but what solved it for me was a battery pull. I got so pissed trying everything that I could, I just pulled the battery and went to sleep.
When I got up, it was syncing just fine.
There are quite a few threads on this subject since I have lurked these forums. Wonder where the problem is.

I had a similar problem a while back and it drove me nuts and I finally figured out why. It was because I have changed some settings in my google account that required a credit card and I never supplied the info. For me it was google adsense for my blog, which I ended up getting rid of, but once I finished the setup of that section of my account I was downloading from the market again.
So, recently when I tried to upgrade to gingerbread (RevolutionRom) I followed all of the instructions to a tease. It worked, but I couldn't get phone service and the battery didn't last 5 hours.
ANYWAYS I went back to trigger and used MyBackup Root to back up all of my apps and data. When I tried to download an app from the Android Market, it would start to show it downloading in the top left corner, then it went away. Recently the new android market came out, so I installed it hoping that it would fix the problem, but it came up with an error "insufficient space on your device" I reflashed the rom, and I even flashed a different rom.
Any ideas how to fix this?
I can download apps either. Im on the new market and the old one wont even open. This one tells me an error has occurred please try again. Wtf?

Did you try wiping the data thru titanium back up? Also thru titanium try market doctor? Open the app hit menu then more and its in there.

Hey, guys. Searched around this forum for this topic but didn't see anything, apologize if it's a duplicate.
Basically my tablet has been freezing constantly since the nougat update. It wasn't happening all that often to begin with but over time it turned into something like once a day to a few times a day. It doesn't follow any usage patterns as far as I can tell (i.e. I use chrome mostly but if I'm on something like one of the regular google apps it might still happen). Once it freezes I have to force shutdown via power button. Every now and then it will freeze and restart itself without my having to force shutdown.
It's stock ROM, with virtually stock apps (dropbox is the only downloaded app). I read about some solutions which I've already tried, and so I wiped the cache, did a factory reset, have about 5gb free storage space, and the issues are still the same.
Any suggestions? Thanks

YAY!!! someone else!
Can you try something for me. Flash this kernel FIRE-ICE N K10.5.3 (K10.5.4 seems to be having problems ATM)
i think your problem will be fixed.... please let me know! :highfive:
Hi, thanks for replying. I absolutely can do that but I literally have no experience flashing kernels. I assume it's same as flashing a rom but If you could provide some instructions for me I'd appreciate that. It's been a long time since I've even done that and I'd want to make sure I don't screw anything up.

Simply... Flash TWRP
Flash kernel like any other ROM.
Reboot done!

Yes TWRP
Question did you unlock your bootloader?
honestly i don't remember. some time ago my n9 got stuck in some weird bootloop. i had to run the RUU (i think that's what it was) to restore everything back to completely normal. so if me having to do that meant i unlocked the bootloader then yes i did. if not, then i wouldn't have done it.
Any ideas? Other apps I installed to try (eg Signal) fail too. Stock ROM.
This is my fist post, have visited many times. Here we go.
As a LG V20 owner, I recommended the V30+ to two people at work. In a matter of 24 hours, both units stopped sending and receiving emails. I have taken the sims out and tested these in other phones, not a sim issue. I then moved my sim (Telstra Aus) into the V30 and only in the Messaging app, it came up with the message No SIM. This I thought might be a sim slot issue, moved it into the other slot closest to the outside. This worked for about an hour. Then the same issue occurred again. It has to be software, an update or a network change that has caused this. I did a network setting reset, have cleared cache for messaging app. SAFE MODE etc. Very strange.

Yes I used Messenger app for SMS and this failed. It sounds network setting related but still testing.
I had the same problem on my V30, suddenly SMS has stopped working. (I'm using Textra app)
I checked the sim card on the other phone and it was ok.
I found on the internet that other V30 are also affected.
The solution was to install the Message app from Google and run it.
Now SMS is working on Textra and also on the stock app.
Whoa, didn't see this before I posted in another thread. Same problem here, but I already had Messages installed! Wonder if it's just this phone for some reason?? My partner is also on VZ (S7) and can send SMS
edit: apparently it's something Google broke. Temp fix is to disable Carrier Services!
I just recently started having text messages not sending. I am on Verizon LG V30 using the vs996 30c debloated rom. Everything has worked fine until last week when I installed the latest Resurrection Remix rom. Since these roms’ tethering and WiFi do not work, I tried installing the us998 modem zip. I don’t know if that is the problem or not, but, I could not get it to work. I have since reinstalled my 99630c debloated rom and have now lost the ability to send text messages, although I can receive texts just fine. I have done clean installs and dirty installs of the rom. I, just yesterday, did a restore of a previous 99630c backup, changed messaging apps, etc. I even reinstalled Verizon’s messaging app.The messaging problem still persists.
i just got off the phone with a very nice Verizon tech, who spent about 40 minutes trying to help me. No success. She said everything appears to be working fine on their end. She ran out of things to try. She thinks my rooting the phone might possibly have something to do with it, which I agree with.
Does anyone have a working link to John Fawkes vs99630c zip? The one one his zip thread does not download for me. I thought I would try starting again with that zip. Maybe I need to try a different modem download?
Any suggestions much appreciated. Thx

See my solution directly above your question. It's not "rooting" that caused it, it's "Google" that caused it. Uninstalling or freezing Carrier Services will fix it. Did for me.
Check the litany of * reviews from today alone:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.ims&showAllReviews=true
Also, both the standard and debloat ROMs for VS99630c from their respective threads and androidilehost are downloading fine for me.
Thx, but did not work for me. I went into TiBu and found carrier services sitting in the non installed portion of the apps. So, I installed it (first with app, then with data) and tried both messaging apps with it installed. That did not work, so I went back into TiBu again and froze it. It still does not work.
I have tried downloading the standard zip from Fawkes zip thread 8 or 10 times or so. It gets to about 8 or 9% , then gives the message unsuccessful.
I will keep trying. Thx for your suggestions.
As an edit. My phone has also started giving me problems with my fingerprint recognition and my phone dialed has suddenly changed looks forcing me to constantly press and swipe an unlock button to keep the dial pad open if I hesitate too long in punching in numbers or trying to change to speakerphone from there.
I don’t know if it is something I have done/installed (wrong modem perhaps?).
And having the new XDA transition at the same time certainly didn’t help .

I don't know what to tell you about the downloads, confirmed they work.
You don't need to freeze CS, you can literally just uninstall it from the Play store. It's just an enhancement for the Google MEssages app they broke. if you don't use Messages, you surely don't need it. I don't know what you meant about CS showing up in the "non installed portion of the apps". It's either installed and frozen or thawed, or it's not. Maybe you had a backup there for reasons? Regardless, you certainly need to reboot after changing CS, not sure if you did that.
You have alot of other issues coming from RR, then flashing a modem, then trying to dirty flash VS996. Since you have TB already, you should definitely backup your apps, then Maybe clean flash VS99630c once you've followed the WTF thread. You should probably wipe your system after the other ROMs and just start over.
That certainly was a quick answer. In TiBu, under “backup/restore”, I have all the apps that are currently on my phone—a very long list. This list can be frozen, etc., and is bolded and colored fonts. Scrolling down that list, it ends and a list starts that is not bolded and has lines thru it. I guess these are apps, etc. that I have, at one time, had on the phone and can be re installed via TiBu.
I was trying to “start over” by downloading the vs99630c rom and try it. Where were you thinking I need to start over at? I wish to work only on “zips” via twrp, as I don't have much luck/knowledge with kdz and computers.
Thx, again.
Again, I'm the furthest thing from the expert here, but he's on travel! Check the WTF thread, because I'm not sure what happens when you wipe with the flashes you've made. But you'd probably start from 6.7. MORE TWRP ACTIONS here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...ar-instructions.3790500/page-10#post-76584629
I would reboot to TWRP and do a complete system backup in case this goes tits up you can restore that from TWRP. Then I would boot to OS and back up everything in TB, then delete all uninstalled backups through the batch actions. Then reboot to TWRP again, wipe, install the VS99630c ROM, install MAgisk, reboot. Make sure your install works then restore your apps through TB.
Ok, thx. I wish to install the vs99630c rom zip now (not the debloated) and am unable to download it from JohnFawkes LG V30 vs 996-30c thread from here on xda. I have tried via my phone about a dozen times now and it stops now generally after the 10 to 20% zip has downloaded. I even tried it a couple of times downloading onto a laptop. Can you possibly point me to a different link that I can try? I need to be on Verizon’s vs 996 and not on the 998 rom, I think? Sorry for the big bother.
Well, I did finally find a download mirror on here from chazzmatts thread using his mirror. It is downloaded now. I will try this installation before going thru the wtf steps you referred me to. If this doesn’t work, then i will try it.
thx, again for your help.
As an update, I did a clean wipe and installed this zip. So far, it seems to have settled things down for. I was able to text (2) and make a phone call. Both worked. I did agree to everything they asked (I normally refuse things such as location, etc.). I’m happy for now. Later, I may try to reinstall the debloated zip.
Ideveraux, thx for all your help on here. I really appreciate it.
Make sure you backup TWRP and TB. Just saying!
And to the OP, I’m sorry I hijacked your thread. I hope you got yours solved, too.
I had this problem after owning the phone for several days.
I'm not sure why, but when i installed Google's "Messages" app, the problem was fixed.
I didn't have to run the messages app, just install it. The stock app suddenly started working again.
I then uninstalled google messages (without ever running it), and the next day I had the same problem.
Once again; I installed google messages, and the problem solved itself without ever running google messages.
This time; I haven't uninstalled google messages.
I'm guessing that something about SMS settings got messed up (i checked them when the problem first happened and couldn't find a problem), and installing a new message app restored the settings to normal.
TLDR: if SMS stops working, Install Google Messages. Problem solved.

I tried that initially and that's not the accepted fix at all. Read above.
