Hi everyone.
Since sunday, my GS5 (SM-G900T) keeps crashing all the apps and services, like google play services, touchwiz, whatsapp (i've had to restore it inumerous times), calendar, keyboard and others.
I downgraded to 4.4 kitkat and the problem is still there. I upgraded back to lollipop 5.0, and even when i was about the begin the initial setup, appeared the message, "unfortunatelly, setup has stopped". This message appears to various apps that keep crashing.
I think it's some kind of virus, but it's not in my SD Card (i formatted), it's not in my device storage. Is there any possibility of a virus in the batterry or any other part of the GS5?
I'm kinda desperate here, does anyone know what is this and how to solve it?
Thanks.
Have you cleared your user data using stock recovery?

Do you mean the wipe/factory reset via recovery? I did that and wiped the cache partition either. Another issue i just noticed is that my device is overheating. Since I started typing this, touchwiz crashed 3x, Samsung keyboard once, and rebooted 2x.

Hu guys,
i was googling for some hours but couldnt find a soltuion to this. Everytime i install ANY app on my new sgs2 and reboot I get the following error message:
The application Status Bar (process com.android.systemui) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.
I get the message twice and then the bar is gone. When i dont press force close I see the bar just working perfectly in the background.
Only solution is factory reset, but as soon i install apps (no matter which) i start getting the same problems.
Thinking of returning the phone

Can you post what's in the 'About Phone's screen, what network you're using and where you bought your phone.

Try a reflash as i only got that problem when i pushed systemui.apk and didnt reboot straight after. Sounds like a corruption somewherw

the problem was when ever i made the inital configuration i ticked the box to sync my google config. my google config was from my old sgs1 which must have corrupted my phone. i reset the phone and unticked the google config option and i dont have the problem anymore.
Ahhh!!! I got the same problem!!! Is there any way to fix this? Anyone?
marcie82, i'm having the same problem and your post was the only post I found that addresses the issue. When you wrote that you've reset your phone, did you mean you reflashed it?
I just got the same phone from amazon.. and it worked fine when i first opened it but then the task bar disappeared..
i reset it back to original factory settings.. it's downloading my old apps now.. i'll keep on debugging this thing until something comes up
A buddy of mine had a similar issue, for him it was com.android.phone that kept randomly crashing, sometimes mid-call and thereby terminating the call.
We tried factory reset and other things as well, nothing helped.
So we ended up re-flashing the FW (he was on KE2 and we flashed a stock KE7), that is now ~2 weeks ago and he never had any crashes anymore since then.
So, long story short, try reflashing (a maybe newer) FW with odin, factory once more (if the ROM doesn't do it while flashing) and see if it gets any better.
Also check the CSC setting, we set it to generic XEU after the flash - use w/e suits your region/FW.
installing applications
i noticed that as soon as i go to google market and click on the 'my apps' button.. it starts downloading all the apps i previously purchased automatically.. is there a way to prevent that from happening?
Settings -> Privacy
"Back uo my data" and "Automatic restore"
untick at least the auto-restore, or the auto-backup too, maybe that helps.
I got both disabled by default (first thing I set after a wipe) and it never tried to restore my apps by itself (yay for AppBackupAndRestore ).
could it be a specific application?
debugging progress: i noticed that it's not installing *any* app that causes this task bar thing disappearing (at least not in my case):
i restored my phone to factory default.. then i disabled my automatic restore and defaults. then i installed only one app from my very long list of apps. (for some reason i had to do it from my 3g connection and not wifi.. but that's a different problem)..
anyways i installed it and it worked just fine! i restarted my phone just to make sure and the task bar is still there!
i'm gonna go through my apps ans install them one by one.. i know it's a painstaking process but hey i gotta give back to the android community

A trick I used in a similar situation was the following :
Use Titanium Backup. U make a backup of the application that has the problem. Then u wipe the data of this application and then u restore the data.
For me that trick miraculoussly solved that problem ...

Had the same problem with not working phone/contacts, freezing like "process com.android.phone - Force Close" etc.
I realized the error happens only after upgrading for example to KG, than after a short period making a backup of the whole system, downgrading to KF, then restoring with Titanium Backup.
It restores the whole system, including settings, and accounts and so on. This might be the problem. It seems nobody realized that the MODEM and PHONE is upgraded too, so there might be some components not compatible with earlier versions.
Solution: restore only user apps & data, not the system settings. Use a separate app for SMS, call logs, contacts or calendar. Do a cache wipe and then a fact reset from MENU+UP+POWER (restore menu), then reinstall your choice of firmware, restore user apps&data with Titanium or anything preferred, then enter/restore everything else manually. No problem when upgrading.
Tested, had 3 sleepless nights, but works for me.
Noob in need of androidized kindle help!
Hey ya'll,
I just rooted and downloaded ics4 onto my kindle. It was working great all day and I used the gba emulator for android and everything.
Now, for some reason I keep getting the error "unfortunately, system UI has stopped working".The tool bar on the bottom of the screen with the home and back buttons aren't even there anymore. I have rebooted and gone into TWRP and done a system reboot and everything yet that keeps happening. Why do you think that is ?
caused by Titanium

I am sure the problem caused by restore system data by Titanium. I have tried four times today. Factory reset and flash and restore. Only when I restore system data caused this problem.
Why resurrect a two year old thread?
For information, restoring apps WILL NOT cause instability......restoring data ESPECIALLY data from system apps WILL.
RULE OF THUMB......
If you are upgrading your android OS (eg...ICS to JB).....
DO NOT restore system app data....ever
For user apps....if the app runs as soon as you open it, you *should* be ok to re-install the data.
If the app requires the downloading of 'additional files' on first run, DO NOT re-install as this data is likely to be OS version specific......
My wife says I'm a phone geek....She's probably right
Due to an update of an Xposed module, I had badly corrupted my systemui. The phone was totally unusable, and I could only press the OK button notifying the stopped event at startup.
Lucky me, I still had not updated to 4.4.3. Via Skipsoft Android Toolkit I updated to the last Android release, and my systemui got fixed. I did not choose to do a complete wipe, so I actually maintained my previous apps. In relation to root, I did not loose it, but I had to reinstall SuperSU to get the non-official apps working again.
I hope this helps somebody else in my same condition, with no need to do a system wipe!
com.android.systemui stops working when battwry gets less then 16 %
Hi guys ,
Can anyone upload the system ui file for android KitKat?
I tried all things to fix "Unfortunately com.android.system ui. Has stopped working when battery gets lower then 16% so I think I should replace the system ui file from system app folder
Hey everyone, I just had this same problem pop up onto my phone while I was checking my messages. Ive never rooted my Motorola Droid Razr HD and the power button is jammed at the moment as well. Is there a way around this problem or is this phone done for?
Maybe you should try increasing the heapsize in the build.prop file, the no. of notifications in the status bar causes this crash. if you want to know more about the heapsize etc. google for this crash in cyanogenmod fourms.
I have S2 and tried almost all Stock and Custom ROMs from scratch but getting "An error occurred while loading the page" . First time after installing the app when I login it works properly but when I close and open again 2nd time it popups application page two times then blank page and this error appears. I tried all options even different facebook accounts but same problem. Currently I am using stock 2.3.5 but still problem is there even though everything is up to date. What can be the issue? Please help.
I get the same problem. It's been a month already.
This has rendered my facebook app completely useless.
Even now wit the 1.7.2 update released today, it's still the same.
I emailed facebook support 2 weeks ago with no answer.
SGS @ 2.3.4 XXJVR rooted
Help please

Did you guys restore app+data for facebook app while switching between ROMS? This has created problem for many users.
Restore only app using titanium after flashing a new ROM.
Also, try clearing data of facebook app.
I didn't restore anything. I started from zero again after flash. I'm on a stock rom.
I did clear data and cache
Also uninstalled, restart, reinstall. Nothing helped

Same, Did all resets, fresh ROMS, fresh install of facebook etc. Nothing is helping.
when i cleared the data and it work for a while but its still the same problem
Same here with Galaxy S. For the first time in almost 15 months of use and many many stock ROMs. It was working great; next minute it wasn't. Unexplainable.
Yeah, I tried different accounts, different connections (both 3G and WiFi), reboot, clear data and cache, etc...
anybody solved this ??
I have same problem on wildfire s with different roms.. also cleared cash, all apps installed from scratch and only fb doesn't load any page from menu.. it syncs contacts and show me notifications but when i go in the app - "An error occurred while loading this page" .
I tried older version of app ( it was pre installed in EQDKP 4.6 ROM ) and updated with same results.
This version seams to work . It's crap but it works..
My LG-P690 running Android 2.3.4 thinks it's funny to mess with the contacts, resulting in a crash of android.process.acore each time I open the contacts list. The only way to fix it is by doing a factory reset + SD card erase. Apparently, clearing the cache of Contacts and Contacts Storage does not fix it like in other phones. I never installed non-market apps.
Today I downloaded an app (Touchpal Contacts) which, hopefully, won't mess up as badly. Today was the 2nd or third time my contacts messed up.
I've also got another problem. I can't install any custom ROMs (the phone is already rooted) because, from what I've seen, some LG DRM will do a factory reset each time ROM Manager by Clockwork tries to fiddle with ROM-based stuff.
Now, for the main questions: What is causing the android.process.acore crash? Is there a permanent solution to it? How do I remove the LG DRM? Is it safe to do it without bricking my device? If I do brick the device, can I install a Linux distribution on it even if the phone has only 160 MB of internal storage?
And before you ask, yes, I did Google it first.
I really didn't want to bump, but it looks like I'll have to do it..
Hi all, I have a real strange problem I cannot underststand.
Since two or three days, my S3 has been freezing every few minutes.
I restored factory settings and installed latest italian original firmware without root or anything.
I powered it up and, after having logged in to Google during the initial setup, my Phone freezes.
I thought it was a hardware problem, but, after trying and trying, I discovered that if I toggle off Syncing, everything works fine.
Any idea?
I am going to try a custom rom, because I cannot really understand the problem.
My stock is: I9300XXEMA2_I9300ITVEMA1_ITV
TIA

did you try to switch off certain parts that are synced (e.g. contacts, calendar etc.) to isolate the problem?
Yes, it could be caused by Picasa... but not sure at all

well try to deactivate only Picasa and see, maybe it tries to sync all pictures and you got too many to bear?
I tried, no success
Try clearing Google services framework data, and all Google app data, or remove Google account and wipe cache/dalvik then add account again

I've got the exact problem, but since I turned sync off (by the pulling-down menu) my SGS3 has managed to stay on for an hour without freezing. The very minute I turn sync on, it freezes again, and it does'nt matter what I'm doing at that moment, if I'm browsing the internet och just flipping around in the settings or using the Play store.
Samsung says they havn't heard of this before..
Have you tried the custom ROM?
Here is how solved.
I added the google account. I pressed "cancel" while it was syncing.
Then I deactivated Sync with Picasa and Google+ Photo.
Moreover I clicked "Settings -> Apps -> All Apps -> Gallery -> Clear Data".
In my gallery, now, I only see Camera Photos... everything is working fine.
Let me know if it works for you.
P.S. Custom ROMS I tried did not have this problem.

Hello!. im running a Samsung Infuse 4G. with the poor performance lately of the Facebook app, I used the titanium backup *root app to uninstall the preinstalled facebook app that was bundled in my droids os. Ok, since then, I flashed my phone with a new os (I997UCLB3-CWM-root-deodex-extras).. This os works great, ive used it many times before without any problems.. ok, well the problem i have is that after flashing the phone,, the facebook app will not open,, it just keeps force closing. ive tried factory resets also, still same issue. just curious if there was some way to get this app working again? the second issue,, after flashing, when you reboot the phone, a notifacation box pops up that says: SYSTEM UIDs INCONSISTANT -- UIDs on the system are inconsistant, you need to wipe your data partition or your device will be unstable. Ok, on the bottom of this message box is a small box that says "im feeling lucky". Ive tried a factory reset,, still same message... ??????????
