Alright. So usually after every app I try to uninstall, it AUTOMATICALLY goes in the bootanimation and soft reboots.. And sometimes when I'm just using my phone as normal as can be, it just automatically soft reboots.. This came by itself unexpectedly. I have tried reflashing my rom, kernel, gapps. I've tried EVERY single kernel I can find for the Xperia Ray on XDA, I've cleared system, and reflashed the rom, I've cleared the cache and dalvik cache a million times.. It just won't stop soft rebooting. And I refuse to clear my data btw.. I'd rather use my phone like this rather then clear my data.. I've attached a logcat. If someone can please tell me what's up, that'd be great. You can see that I'm trying to uninstall DOSBOX at "I/PackageManager(19692): Removing non-system packagerg.hystudio.android.dosbox" in the logcat, and after that, everything goes haywire.
I'm using the FXP CM224, Kernel: Lupus 9.1, Gapps: gapps-jb-20121011
Seems to me that you have to wipe data urgently
That happened to me once when i flashed a rom over another rom and then when i tried to restore any app i got a soft reboot
This happens due to /data and /cache corruption

Have flashed my S2 a few times, and happy with XXKI4, and also rooted using the CF-Root method.
However, seem to be getting a few Force Close errors here and there.
Market sometimes force closes when im not even using it, And if i go to Settings-Location+Security-Find my mobile, both Sim change alert, and remote controls throw up a com.android.settings Force Close.
I have wiped cache, dalvik cache, and fixed permissions using CMW recovery.
Any ideas chaps?
Thanks.
Would a Hard reset maybe solve this?

Would be my first impression too.
Just do a complete system / nandroid backup in recovery mode (or by using the CWM Manager app).
Then Boot into recovery mode and do a factory reset.
Then reboot into recovery again, wipe cache partition and Dalvik cache too.
Then reboot the phone.
If that does not help, then you may have to flash the ROM (and afterwards CF-Root kernel) again.
Please remember to backup before and wiping cache(s) after flashing.
That will prevent most common FCs.
Good luck !
I had the same problem on my galaxy note, happened when i disabled the samsungservice.apk under system/app (was trying to remove Samsung bloat)
Put back the samsungservice.apk there and no more forced closes for the find my phone settings
I was flashing CM9 from CM7 on my Motorola Defy, botched it up intially due to a slip of my finger which led to me to Clear the cache first. But then I restarted the entire process by Clearing Data -> Installing -> Flashing Kernel and so on...
But when I tried to clear the Dalvik Cache, the phone didn't delete it. It didn't give me a message that it wiped the cache, but it didn't say otherwise either. This led me to believe that the cache just didn't exist anymore.
As a result, I'm unable to install apps - Says there is no memory and I need to make more. Also, everytime the phone comes on is treated as the first time. It takes me through the whole process of Setting up an account and everything. This has rendered my phone obsolete.
Please help me!
Thanks in advance.

EDIT: Solved, reflashed the stock SBF. But is this the only solution? :O
Have you tried doing a clean install?
Honestly, any time you get issues like this where the phone gets stuck (either in a boot loop or resetting your settings every boot, etc.) it's best to just wipe/factory reset and re-flash everything.
This is also why it's important to make backups so that if something does go wrong when flashing, you can just restore and be good to go.
If by a clean install you mean starting from wiping data, flashing the ROM on again and going on to clear cache and dalvik cache; Yes I did that. But I'm unable to clear the cache.
I ought to have created a backup, didn't.
So how can I go about fixing this issue?

A clean install seems like the main thing to do (again). If you want, you could try going back to stock.
Installing again didn't do the job. Still can't wipe Dalvik Cache and the Setting still reset on every boot.
The chief problem I have with this is that I'm in India whereas the stock baseband is Europe. So to change it I've to reboot and can't do that because it resets every boot. @[email protected]
Is it a problem with the Kernel?
I'll go back to stock, but it seems a bit complex and I'm afraid I'll brick my phone. :'(
EDIT: Felt it was important to mention that the boot screen still shows CM7.1 and not CM9
I have a similiar problem.
Everytime I choose clear Dalvik men, it looks like he freezes for about a second or two. Then you see the 'menu' no - no - no - no - yes, clear dalvik memory - no - no - no (or something like that) pop up for half a second, and then it is gone. Is this a problem in CWM? Or is it in my phone?
I have a similar problem too! When I hit 'clear dalvik cache', the CWM screen just flashed once and nothing happened, and nothing says 'cleared dalvik cache' or similar...
Me too , how to solve it? Can anyone help? Mine is samsung gio
I have an issue similar to yours with my tablet (samsung galaxy tab 4 10.1 or SM-T430NU) in which it doesn't mount /data and it doesn't let me wipe to factory. Still haven't found how to fix this.
Hi,
I really don't understand what just happened with my Galaxy S2. It was on and well, then crashed for no reason and displayed two error messages in a loop: "Falcon Pro has stopped unexpectedly" (that's my Twitter client) and "android.process.media has stopped unexpectedly". I had not even the time to click on "OK" before the other message appeared and so on, so I forced the reboot by pressing the power button.
Now the phone is stuck on the "S2" logo when booting.
I tried wiping the parition cache, it did nothing.
I have Android 4.0.something, Samsung/Bouygues original rom with Siyah kernel.
What can I do (without losing all my data if possible)?
Thank you...

Do you still have the original rom zip on your sd card? If you do, you could try a dirty flash of it on top of your current setup. Wipe cache/dalvik cache and then flash the rom zip. Seeing as you're having FC's, you could also fix permissions in recovery, can't hurt.
Edit: Note, that's attempting to not wipe your data. If that doesn't work you'll likely have to factory reset from recovery.

No, I didn't have any rom on my card...
I tried to wipe dalvik, fix permission, wipe cache and reboot but the problem was not fixed.
So I said goodbye to my data, did a factory reset and that worked. Phew!
Thank you
Hi!
I have a problem with my LG Optimus 3D (P920). Installed the JellycreamV3 and it went good, untill everything was complete and I restarted the phone as instructed. Now my phone stucks at startup logo. Its been like that for hours but nothing happends? I have tried to restarted it several times without any resaults. Please help me. Its my first attempt to install new android version.
Perhaps your install was bad, try reinstalling it, or maybe you didn't clear the cache, system, data?
Sent from my LG-LS980 using xda app-developers app
- Boot into Recovery again
- Wipe data/cache and go to "Advanced" and wipe Dalvik (yes, this will delete everthing, but you don't exactly have a choice)
Reboot. If it's still hanging
- Boot into Recovery again
- Re-flash ROM
And BTW, didn't you make a backup of your original ROM? If not, well.. you won't go any places fast. Another tip is to go to the thread where you downloaded the ROM and ask for help there. People there have flashed the ROM, and some may have had the same issue as you have now.
I try to go into recover-mode but it just starts up and get stuck on the logo:S I did a backup but no matter how i press the buttons to access the recover-mode the phone just starts up and the LG logo comes up. Then its stuck there
I need help, I may have messed up my device, I am from an oreo rom (RR) and I tried to flash a pie rom , tried MSM extended and AOSP Extended. They both have the same problem when my phone first boots up.
* Data transfer tool keeps closing, well i can disable the app, but when i press start/begin on the pixel setup, the one setup of google, it force closes, then it opens again, and when i press start again, same thing happens.
Also, every time after I first boot a freshly flashed pie rom, and i go to twrp to wipe clean my phone, the data partition gets a problem, it says (invalid arguments) or something like that, it cant be mounted, and it has 0 bytes everything, it can be easily fixed by doing this:
*change filesystem of data to anything besides ext4
*change fs back to ext4
I think that it may be causing the apps to force close or something? It happens on first boot of my phone, when the rom sets up the phone for use, i could reproduce the problem by booting up my phone again.
Anyone know the cause of this problem? Am i flashing wrong? I am using latest twrp.
My flashing method:
Wipe cache, dalvik, data, system.
install rom + gapps
I will try to recover using my backup on twrp, wish me luck that it will work. I only backed up system data and cache i think maybe that wont work and im doomed so please help me
Nevermind, its fixed now, just used the MICRO variant of opengapps, for some reason, flashin MINI variant breaks my phone :/
