Ever since moving up to JB 4.2.2 from ICS 4.0.3, I always get this "Android is upgrading apps" message everytime I reboot. Is this normal?
Not sure if its related but I get a lot of "corrupt messages" error in whatsapp sometimes after a reboot. This makes me lose some messages prior to the reboot as I have to restore from the backup (whatsapp only backs up messages at 4am everyday) and its getting real annoying, have gotten this error about 4-5 times in about 2 weeks so far.
I am using CarbonROM v1.7 (offical stable), and Dorimanx's kernel, from 9.14 to 9.30, 9.31, 9.32, and now 9.33 (I get the most errors in this version).
Would appreciate it if anyone could help me out! Can't find any relevant info after searching (or maybe I suck at searching).

the upgrading apps message isn't an issue, it occurs when any dalvik operations are running, or also optimisations (wheel align, zipalign, sqlite, detailing, etc.)
as to the corrupt messages error, i'm not sure at all, sounds like sd card rw errors in boot

So.. what should I do to get rid of that error? Any possible solutions you can think of?
Fully wipe and reflash Rom. That should get rid of problems. If continue to do this change Rom.

I'm trying to avoid that, haha. It was doing fine initially, then after I flashed Dori's kernel after about 1-2 weeks of use, it started popping up. I used Hawker's wipe scripts so it should be pretty clean.

For your backup issue of Whatsapp... Just click on that " backup conversations " tab. Yes its given that the backups occur at 4:00 am but that's the automatic backup. Tap that box and it backs up real time
Go Bk to stock kernel if dori is upgrading all the time. well the message. Reflash Rom no wipe will give you stock kernel Bk

Hi,
I loaded Cognition 777 rc onto SGS2 i777 from the latest Cognition X2 beta 4 and got trapped in a com.android.phone force close-relaunch-force close loop. So I went back to beta 4, and loaded just the 11132011 kernel. That worked fine, so I tried loading C777 again. Same issue.
I am back on beta 4 with the 11132011 kernel and all's well. I have seen some discussion in other forums about dealing with com.android.phone FC. But I wonder if it is a c777-specific issue because I've not had the problem with previous Cognition revs.
Thoughts? Thank you very much!
Mike
I have that problem, too. I think we had to wipe it beforehand, but yeah, not sure...
Had the same issue when I attempted to flash from Serendipity 8 just to check it out. Problem went away after wiping from CWM then flashing.

Thanks to both of you. I wiped from CWM and then flashed - and it did go away. But it came back after I restored my apps and data. Tried restoring from CWM, then wiped again and restored with Titanium. I guess this latest rev conflicts with one my apps for some reason? I don't think I've got anything terribly exotic, but who knows?
I guess my options are: 1) load apps one at a time to isolate the problem child or 2) see if it goes away with the next rev ...
Don't restore all the data. Like, don't restore stuff like the phone application or some system data stuff related the phone. Call history and stuff is alright, but yeah, just go through it rather than just restoring everything.
What are you restoring? User apps are always good. System settings will cause problems. It sounds like you're restoring the call log or phone settings, use another app to backup sms and call log.
You two were right. I'd restored all apps and all data, including system data. That was the problem. It's all good now. Thanks for setting me straight.
I've just flashed SuperNexus and backed up all my apps + data for the first time, it's going through each app one by one on the installation, I assumed it would do it all in one go, is this normal? or have I done it wrong haha?
edit2: after restoring apps + data I just keep getting spammed with messages like "unfortunately, the process android.process.acore has stopped" when I try open contacts, phone etc it says the same message, halp what have I done wrong? my phone keeps crashing cause of everything not working
i cant send a text or anything! even when I receive calls it comes up, some apps work fine and the data is there but most important functions just do not work, can anybody please help me ?

You might try going in recovery and wipe cache and dalvik cache, fix permissions and reboot.
Don't restore system data, and to batch restore apps you need the pro version
I just wiped the caches and nothing changed. If I reflash and restore just apps will I lose the data for the apps? Like saves etc

Yes, but you should be okay to restore data for the apps, but don't restore system data across roms.

Good job I saved contacts to SIM or it would of been annoying, thanks everyone!
I thought I bricked it last night too lol, I was flashing "UltimaROM" and was instructed to wipe the phone with his custom installer using Super Wipe. I did that and it just froze, was making no progress at all so I turned it off. It kept rebooting over and over and wouldn't get into recovery mode for ages but it eventually did.
Can anybody answer my kernal question? Is it safe to flash a custom kernal after ROM? I only ask because I read somewhere certain kernals/rom flashing causes a "brick bug" or something

Went through the install of Moonshine today and ViperDNA 1.3.1. Finished installing all of my programs and started tweaking settings. I'm now getting "Unfortunately, system UI has stopped" messages, and have lost the status bar. I've tried several reboots, but no luck. Is there anything else I can do to get this working again other than another full wipe and reinstall?

You can try a dirty-flash of the same ROM, maybe to reinstall the System-UI apk.. It sounds like there's an error that resulted of a tweak you changed.
Do you remember what tweaks you did?
I remember having this problem when I changed the DPI too much too.
Sent from my DNA using Tapatalk 2
I don't recall doing anything to DPI adjustments. I did add Nova Launcher, but it worked fine for at least an hour or so while I was installing apps.
Anyhow, I tried the dirty flash, but that didn't fix it. I wiped and reinstalled and everything seems to be fine now.
I just managed to crash the system UI again and can't seem to get it to work again after a reboot. I had clicked on venom tweaks, then profiles. I clicked on tweak defaults and then the status bar disappeared and the "Unfortunately, System UI has stopped" message came up. Any ideas how to fix this? If it involves a reinstall (again) of the ROM, I think it is going to be time to try something else.
Format system. When I was getting system ui FC I went into recovery and formatted system. Seemed to fix the issue. I've included that step in my flash routine when flashing a new ROM now

There has been two additional posts to the ViperDNA thread in the developer section that ran into the same problem I did by going into tweak deafults. Unfortunately, I have too few posts to be able to add a "me too" reply at this time. One person fixed by doing a TWRP restore, but the only backup I have is of the stock before I installed Viper. Still would like to find a way to fix this without formatting and reinstalling everything a third time.

Format system, wipe cache and dalvik, flash the ROM again (which will again wipe system) then see if it comes up, if not you're good and if it does then its something they set in data which means a tweak file or something is there which should be able to be deleted. If its the latter that's why a factory reset was needed. Its been forever since I run sense or viper but I think they make a directory on the sdcard, good place to look.

I'm getting the same thing only I'm on CarbonROM. I had just let the phone download all my apps from the market and then after a reboot it greets me with the "System UI has stopped". I think it may be the app settings restoring causing a problem on my end but I'm not sure.
I love what little I've seen of the ROM though lol
Like others have said, wipe everything and try the install again. I got this during my first install of the ROM even though I did a clean wipe, but the 2nd time around it's been fine for me. I've only been using it for a few days though.
Do I need to use the "format data" option in TWRP? I went into the advanced wipe section and selected all of the options in there (twice), then installed the ROM. I skipped setting up accounts and all of the typical new setup options and went straight to quick settings, venom tweaks, profiles, tweaks defaults and system UI crashed again.
From my reading, I didn't see anything to be gained by formatting data, so I've wiped and reinstalled again. Just about have everything setup, then this time I will hurry up and get a good TIbackup and nandroid made before I find a way to break it again
Alright, I hope I have this in the right place. I just recently flashed the TerraSilent Kernel for the Galaxy Player 4.0 US version. The Flash went fine, but my device was running extremely slowly. A re-flash didn't solve it either. I figured that wiping the cache partition might solve the problem - I decided to do this before running a backup, since no important data is stored in the cache (...right?), and since I was worried that backing up while I had this problem could make things worse - so I went ahead into CWM and did just that. Then, it reboots, and I nearly get a heart attack. The stock wallpaper is back, it's using the default launcher again (I had LauncherPro installed), and pretty much only system apps work, all the others have an icon with an SD card on it, and when clicked on, it says something like "application not installed". I did some searching, and it seemed like a reboot might help (although I didn't find anyone with a problem like mine anywhere). The reboot didn't do anything, so now I have it shut down, so that nothing can happen. The odd thing is, it doesn't seem to me like the system messed up and did a full wipe instead, either, because a couple of things I have are still there - for example, some of my bookmarks I made on the homescreen while still using the default launcher are still there. I'm really confused because I have wiped the cache partition before, when I was still on an unmodified stock kernel, and everything stayed the same, the way I thought it was supposed to. And now this happens. What do I do now? I exported my absolute most important data (Astrid Tasks and Calendar) before I installed TerraSilent (but I obviously wasn't able to do a full backup because I wasn't rooted, I figured installing TerraSilent would root it), so my absolute most important data is on my computer. I also did a simple file backup of the internal USB storage and external SD card to another computer before flashing TerraSilent. However, there is still a good deal of data still need, and a lot of data that would just be a pain in the rear to recreate, not to mention my (valuable to me) game data. What did I do wrong - or did something in the system mess up? And - what do I do to get back to where I was before?
It happened to me when I was on gingerbread with terrasilent. It's a known issue with this kernel. In fact, you didn't wipe the data, but the recovery contain a bug wich format the data as soon as you do an operation wich mount the data partition(I think it's this but I can't remind) but it doesn't wipe the system or anythin else, so the icon, setting and everything else stay there but without anything attach to them. I don't remind what was causing it, I only stopped using cwm with this kernel unless I wanted to flash something or to wipe everything. Sorry but I can't help you more as I don't remind everything, it's been a while since I've been on gingerbread.

Wasn't that problem solved with a later version of the kernel though?
And, assuming that's what happened (what you describe sounds pretty much like what happened to me), would that mean that the only way to try and get it back would be by trying to recover the formatted data?

It was said to be resolved, but it happened to some peoples even thought. Maybe you can recover some of your data with your computer and some tools that let you get the erased data, but I can't guarantee the integrity of your data and you would need to replace every bit of data that was there before to get it running nicely. The easiest way would be to try to recover some of your important data, put it on your computer then wipe your player and start from scratch (wipe data/factory reset) and reinstall your apps. Then put back the save, or setting or files that you got back in your apps. Hope this help, I'm not a proffessional with data recovering or where to put it back after you got it, maybe someone else could further help you with this.
And the conclusion...

OK, my reply is late, but thanks for your help. I managed to copy the partition with all the deleted contents over to the computer, and I'll have to study the contents some other time, because I've spent about 24+ hours on this problem in total, and need my device for more important purposes - those for which the data I managed to copy before the custom kernel and everything else. For those of you who have a similar issue, this is how I managed to save (or that is I am 95% sure this will have saved at least some, as I said I haven't studied it yet) what I hope is a good chunk of my data.
Have you tried flashing a different kernel? Terrasilent also gave me some weird in that after a few days my device would boot into recovery by itself then wipe all my data in that only my system apps would remain. So it's a little different than what's happened to you. I ended up using klin's R3 kernel or Steven's kernel that fixed the issue.

I've got huge issue with steve's kernel. You can get into recovery, but once you booted in it will simply bootloop. Then you have to flash back with odin. So if you go with steve's kernel, don't boot into recovery. As for klin's kernel, I've never tried it, and will probably never as we have some really nice jellybean rom that I recommend you.
I never got that issue with steve's kernel.

Actually, with my problem, my system apps did remain, so it's almost the same problem, only my device didn't boot into recovery on its own (seriously, it booted into recovery on its own and wiped the data? ). I only installed the terrasilent kernel to be able to upgrade to JB, so I'm now on JB, running into different problem (the wrong settings are being backed up from google backup, they're restoring from my galaxy mini 2), but thanks anyway. I am really not having any luck at all with this whole update . But ti-pich, I agree with you, that JB rom is awesome

Yes it did, after 1 week. I was like ???. I reflashed it again and it did the same exact thing, and it happened to me while I was at my college too.
I also had that same issue where it was restoring from the wrong device. I just had to reflash the rom, and install stuff manually because it was making my device horribly slow.

Wow that is some scary stuff, now I know why every kernel/ROM/mod has a disclaimer at the beginning ... I'm glad I'm off that now and on a stable JB build now. I found a way to have it restore at least some of the stuff from when it was on gingerbread (mostly apps and appdata, no WiFi passwords or other settings - at least I'm pretty sure, I'm still working on getting all the stuff up and running) - go into a terminal, and type
Code:
bmgr list sets
It will probably have two different sets, one for when it was on GB and one for JB - or that is, if you had the problem, there will probably be a third set for a different device (maybe more). Then, choose the one you want to restore from, and type
Code:
bmgr restore xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
and replace xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx with the apropriate ID from the command before. I'm having to type it several times in order to get it to work - I type it once, it restores some apps, then stops, I type it again, and it restores some more - but I'm hoping it gets as much possible onto the JB build. I guess this won't help you much, I've seen you saying on the ICS and JB threads that you've upgraded a while ago, but I guess if someone else comes along with the same problem, I hope it will help

hmmm. I'm about to try Terrasilent with my YP-G1 (US version) running 2.3.6. This is giving me second thoughts. Does this kernel still cause issues with SGP 4.0s running GB 2.3.6?? Maybe I should try the old Steves Kernel? I just want to use voodoo sound - thats really the only reason I want to root and get these kernels.

Be sure not to use Titanium to restore any system files, as this may cause bugs.
