SOLVED! After a very hard(and also boring) process of clicking in ok button and doing one action per time, I finally got put the original copy of my SystemUI into '/system/app' folder
I was playing of "Let's mod this SystemUI to learn about it", but then i repaired that I had no idea of how replace the original SystemUI by mine... Then I had the stupid idea of convert the original systemui into a user app using ROM Toolbox...
Results: i lost my systemUI, everything opens fine, but status bar is gone and the worst, a error screen informing the "com.android.systemui has stopped" every 5 seconds, which forces me do one action before error screen appears
My question is, there's anyway to install my SystemUI or recover the old one(i have bkp of the apk) without factory reset?

Delete old systemui apk replaced with one that works then fix permission to rw-r-r and reboot. Or dirty flash no wipes. All else fails do a full wipe and reflash.

The main problem was solved, I learned how to "install" SystemUI.apk, now I'm in trouble with my custom SystemUI.apk that crashs too. I just can't compile a single SystemUI that don't crash :/
However at least i can use my phone normally

Sounds like you broke your settings, just pull the settings apk from the original rom zip and push it to your phone then reboot.

Forgive me if I may sound a little dumb here but how do you pull it from the original rom then push to phone?......
I am sure one of the fonts did that. it has happened to me before. To pull somethiong out of rom just unzip it. Settings.apk is in system/app folder.
Awesome fonts. Thanks!!

YES PLEASE I redid everything on my phone and its great again but i would love to use a different font but i do not want to use this zip until someone can pin point the problem
the ajax font crashed my settings, i repeat do not install the ajax font, it will crash your phone and constant FC of your display settings, i extracted the original settings .apk from my rom and pushed over and rebooted, that does not work...still FC... not cool...
I pinpointed the one that's causing the force closes. can't remember the exact name because I deleted it right when I discovered which one it was. I do believe it had something like "7con in it. Or something to that extent. Hope this helps everyone that's having this issue.

Uninstall it using Titanium or super manager or whatever you use and it ll be back to normal.
I unistalled them all using Titanium and was able to open up my display settings again.
Edit: post before me beat me to it.
yeah, that doesn't work, i uninstalled all of them hours ago...tried to push the settings apk over using root explorer but root explorer wont allow me to mount the system folder to rw just stays ro, i pushed settings.apk over to the data folder where app is and that did nothing after i replaced settings.apk...should i unistall settings.apk from titanium then reinstall settings.apk from my rom zip? i try to reinstall the settings.apk and it will not allow me to do so..now my launcher is freezing up and force closing on reboots...
Woops same problem. Is it the ajax apk?

yes, the others were working fine until that point or it could be a combination of them all or just the one bad .apk...i had to reflash my rom over a font..
Hi all;
as someone already know, I made some ultra cleanings in my ROM (as in my signature). Used system try and see what happens mostly I have deleted some of apks on /system/app and rebooted if it could affect something that I need... Suceeded and my ROM got about 10MB of free RAM extra, so I was satisfied Also made a custom framework, modded the resources (not UOT etc.); just replaced some image files.
Hovewer, few days I found that my ringtone volume is too quiet. So I went into settings > volume and what? FC ! So I tried many other settings and also found that same is with brightness control.
Ï decided that I deleted something that is related with settings - looked into deleted apks in my backup and didnt found anything that yould be related with it... So finally copied back all of apks as are on default ROM from Wolfbreak and rebooted and fixed permissions. But, as I was surprised, FCs were still present ! So it was dissapointed very much and tried to reflash the whole ROM - FCs still present ! -> made Full wipe and reflashed another ROM and FCs still present althought FULL WIPE !!!
Finally, first totally dissapointed with Android behavior, restored the whole backup of ROM, which I made first. Happened two another amazing things:
- lost lockcreen (phone doesnt lock; after bootup lockcreen appears once...)
- lost items in shutdown menu - now I have only Shutdown and Reboot option...
- home button doesnt work (back and menu works), long or short click
So, I am asking for android experts What are these things related to files? I modded framework-res.apk and deleted and restored apks in /system/app. Nothing more...
So I need to point which apks or res are sources are related to this? I will check permissions or try to restore it. Or even where are stored data for responsible apks for these FCs...
Any ideas are surely welcome !!!
The lost option in the shutdown menu are frawework-res,related,and birghtness and volume are settings.apk
I suggest you to restore the framework and settings.apk,put them in your sd card,copy them to system,inside system give proper permissions,and after that mode them to its places,reboot in xrec,wipe cache,wipe dalvik cache,fix permissions,and then reboot.

Yes, know this. Tried it already, but in other order.
Now tried in this orded you suggested and after reboot I lost also PIN unlock page (so phone is out of network) and battery icon shows not empty battery (charged it few hour ago).
It seems that also another files are related to these problems, but cant imagine what else - tried almost everything.
Its weird... I am flashing again stock ftf...
Hello all
First of all sorry if this question has been asked. Usually I can find my answers myself by searching but can't this time. First of all I'm using d3rpICS_DRAMA_DM2. Last I was playing with the leedroid tweaks under the profiles settings. I switched it to sense 3.6. Now since I did that I keep getting a popup every 30 seconds or so saying system ui has stopped. I hit ok and it let's me continue what I was doing. I finally found the rom I liked and got my phone set up how I like so I'm wondering if there is a way to fix it or do I just have to flash again.
Sent from my PG86100 using xda app-developers app
My first guess would be that the SystemUI.apk has the wrong permissions.
Either use the "Fix Permissions" in LeeDroid tweaks or do it by going into recovery and use Fix Permissions from there.
Or, if you know how, you can do it manually for just the SystemUI.apk and go into the /system/apps/ folder with Root Explorer or equivalent and chance the permissions to rw-r--r--
Be sure to reboot (i personally do a cold boot each time i mess with system files, meaning i shut it off, remove battery and then put it back together and boot up) after each time you fix permissions.
If that doesn't work, try and open the ROM.zip file with WinZip or similar and manually copy the SystemUI.apk (and SystemUI.odex if the rom is odex) from the .zip to the /system/apps/ folder. This is incase the SystemUI file(s) were somehow damaged/corrupted when flashed (very very unlikely, but can happen).

I did do the reboot with the battery out. I'm gonna try that other stuff you suggested. I'll get back to ya. Thanks for the help.

just have a try replacing your SystemUI.apk from another campatible rom or you can download a systemui mod.

Copy SystemUI to the app folder, change permissions, done.
thx guys i changed the UI and the problem gone
now i try to fix another crash problems such as "unfortunately the process.android.process.acore has stopped" ,after googling i found a solution by clearing the data of "contacts" and "contacts storage" in App manager it suites alot of people but doesn't work for me
the other crash message was about google play "unfortunately the process.google.play has stopped" ,i tried clearing data uninstaal updates but nothing worked
besides these 2 messages i got crash of many applications ,most of them gone by reinstalling but the other still
advices plz
I guess something is wrong with your rom. sometimes reflashing the rom will cure this.
For the android.acore just change your phone.apk or phonebook.apk if i'm not mistaken
choose one of Systemui Mod here

follow the instruction, and you will get your statusbar back.

Wonder why u are still using that rom. Reflash only the system partition and fix permissions. If the problems remain, change your rom.
Here is the thing
i have had changed wallpaper inside Keyguard.apk
set the permission to RW-R-R
move to root/system/priv-app second time flashed thru recovery
reboot
i did wipe cache/dalvik second time not
after that there is an error and i cannot use System UI, unless flashing stock Keyguard.apk and it will go back
question is how to change wallpaper of UPSM without having an error "android.systemui has stopped"
using S5 Sensation ROM
