The problem is, its not one or specific app that crash, its almost all.. the error massage overlapping the other error massage! its almost impossible for me to navigate through my phone. Each time I click "OK", other errors pop up.. usually its not happen to the apps I install, the error happen on android service app.. like phone, contact, calendar, google service, etc.. etc.. the only solution I did is to wipe everything (since I root it). I have to wipe everything for it to work.. if I wipe internal only, and install other custom rom.. its not working.. I have to wipe everything.
my question is how to fix this "Unfortunately, (apps) has stopped..." error without wiping everything???
If you are using custom ROM then download exactly the SAME version of the ROM you currently have and reflash it without doing factory reset (make sure you wipe out dalvik and regular cache after flashing). Also this sounds like corrupt internal storage, best solution involves losing ALL of your data (yes, even ROM). I suggest you to do hard reset (completely format /system partition). After doing that be aware that no OS will be installed on your phone and you should flash one using recovery like you do with regular ROM installation (with cache cleaning and Gapps flashing). Your phone will work like charm again. Make sure your backup all your important stuff before doing it. Also if you use SD card I would recommend formatting it as well because it contains (probably) broken application data and obbs.
Or, try reinstalling the google services app.. If that fails reflash the rom twice via recovery. If that fails, as above, backup, reset to stock and start over.

By Corrupt Internal Storage I mean software way, it gets formatted to RAW instead of exFAT or NTFS or whatever format it is by default. This was happening quite a lot with my SD card, Android system was reading/writing something on it in the background, I was playing some game and suddendly phone restarted because of Low memory killer. And what happened is that SD card operation suddendly stopped which most probably made it virtually corrupt (formatted from NTFS to RAW) and made it unable to read on phone and PC. Only solution was to format is using Windows' Disk Managment tool and format it freshly. Same thing rarely happens to internal storage which means your ROM won't boot and your phone will be booted into recovery or you will get bootloop. That being said maybe some of your segments from OS are virtually damaged which prevents apps from functioning properly making them crash. Another reason could be "optimizing" apps such as Greenify, Battery Boosters etc which can crash other apps as well.

Clean Slate for those that balls up the firmware .Or need to return to service or decide if its hardware/firmware problem .
Backup data first if phone is working .
Boot CWM recovery
Mounts and Storage
Format cache data system sd card .
Remove battery
Boot to download mode
Open Odin
Install correct stock firmware .
Still problems use usb jig to set rom counter to zero .
Return to service centre .

If you really want to wipe your device, press:
*2767*3855#
WARNING, there is no confirmation, when you pres the last digit "#", everything is gone for good... Make a backup first, this code wipes your whole SD and formats it to factory defaults, i "think" only the external sd is untouched, not sure, you'd better remove it before typing the code.
Hope it helps

Is there any different between this method (*2767*3855# ) and by going in to settings ->privat --> factory reset? If so, what's the different (im not sarcastic, i really want to know)
thank you,
from memory, a factory reset via android's menu only wipes /data and /cache (plus a few other things like the android_secure, .cache and sd-ext folders) but leaves your internal and external SD intact.
the service code is the "real deal" and wipes everything that's mounted. Why don't you try it and tell us the results? I hear lots of good about it... ^^

Nah, i leave it to someone els. Do you know if this method also erase the root or not?
nope, /system partition remains as is (including all the files that were installed to it, but there aren't that many of them. Most third-party files get written to /data, which is also wiped. There might remain a few .conf files in .etc though, but it's rarely a problem -especially for rooted users, since we're used to completely wipe everything including /system when flashing a new stock ROM )
Use the service code or as JJEgan said:
Boot CWM recovery,
go to Mounts and Storage,
Format cache, data, system and sd card.
^^both of these methods do the same thing and will wipe everything that has been changed by the user.
Good Luck.

Hi how do I completly set my phone back to original unrooted status?
I have read up on so much but I seem to have made a right mess of my phone.
I can't unroot it no matter what I do, I put the original kernal back on through odin but it is still rooted but it got rid of yellow triangle.
The phone works ok and boots up but even the usb jig won't reset the counter, just boots into recovery mode.
I'm at the point as I don't know what I have done anymore.
Please help someone.

Use at your own risk, and keep a backup somewhere because it will erase everything ..
Brother,
Only stock recovery gets crazy and erase everything in your internal memory and resets the rom and wipes the app datas …
Custom recovery does't do that it protects your personal data and only wipes app data and resets the rom …
If your issues is with a buggy rom try a different one …
External sd not mounting is an rom issue not with factory reset …
If you want to go back to stock, data wipe isn't going to do it, you will have to download the stock rom from sammobile.com and flash it using Odin …
Ps: get the correct stock rom or you'll brick your phone!!
If I helped hit thanks …
i think the 4.3 stock is the problem... it prevents any cook rom to get access to sd but i'm not sure why this is possible... all i know is i use odin to install stock 4.3 and it works without problem but switching to any rom cook then the sd just simply gets lost...

I'm pretty new to flashing ROMs. My phone is rooted using all in one toolkit, s-off with sunshine. TWRP is my recovery.
I made a backup of my rooted stock ROM , then used TWRP manager to flash cm11. I checked to wipe all the data and dalvik before flashing. Cm installed with no issues.
Once I finished setting it up, I installed es file explorer again and noticed that all my files from my internal storage are still accessible. Its just listed under 0. Everything is still in tact tho.
Did I do something wrong? I don't understand why I still have all these files.

You have to have internal storage checked for it to be wiped
^^^This. The data that was wiped was system data, not your personal data.
Thanks for responding so quick,
I checked all of the options under install on twrp manager. Looking back, it says wipe data, wipe cache, wipe dalvik. There wasn't an option for wipe internal storage.
Is there anything I can do to fix this now? Or would I just have to go into twrp and reflash cm from recovery, making sure to check wipe internal storage?
Also, if I leave it as is, is it going to cause any problems?

First off, ditch TWRP Manager, its a needless middle man (you're talking about the TWRP Manager app, right?).
If you boot into TWRP and select Wipe, you will see under "Advanced Wipe" there are a slew of wipe options (but be careful what you pick, as there are options to wipe things like the removable SD).
HOWEVER, you don't need to wipe the internal storage to flash a ROM. Yes, you need to wipe user data (/data) in most cases, and also cache and Dalvik. But wiping internal storage (virtual SD, also called sdcard on ES File Explorer, or sometimes /0) is not needed. For most practical purposes this partition is treated like a removable SD card. In fact, by default, backups like your TWRP nandroid and Titanium Backups are stored here. So if you wipe, you will lose those (unless you move/copy them to the removable SD or somewhere else like your computer).
Some folks like to wipe internal storage when they flash a ROM, just for general cleanup purposes. But its a personal choice, and not really necessary IMO. And as mentioned doing so will wipe your backups unless you save them somewhere else that isn't going to be wiped.
Thank you so much for clearing that up.
Yes, I was talking about twrp manager. You're right, after I checked the options, all it did was reset and boot up twrp. Pretty useless...
So since I still have all my game data stored, can I just copy it over somewhere to retain where I was at? I'm talking about android/obb data.
How would I go about integrated all my previous data into this current software? Let me know it my question made sense or not

I think some folks like to use it to install TWRP. But installing with fastboot is easy, and also important to know how to do if you have issues someday and need to re-install TWRP from a non-booted condition.
So yeah I agree that TWRP Manager is pretty useless.

Use the app Titanium Backup to migrate app data when flashing ROMs (also handy to migrate app data to a new phone). And paying the few dollars for the Pro Key and getting the batch backup/restore functions is well worth it if you are flashing ROMs.
Do not use Titanium to migrate any system data to a new ROM, as this will likely cause problems. Just apps and app data. I've had success migrating SMS with Titanium as well. But other things like Settings and Homescreen setup, I usually just do again manually after flashing a new ROM.
As mentioned in my post above, the default save location for Titanium Backup data is the internal storage. So do not wipe internal storage when flashing a ROM, or you will lose your backup data.
Just copying the game files will most likely not work to migrate your game save data.
Thanks for all the help, I really appreciate it.
I used titanium backup and extracted my apps and data from my nandroid backup. Worked pretty well.
The only thing I'm having trouble with now is getting my info like contacts and stuff to sync. It says it's synced, but I'm not seeing it.
I wanted to install HTC backup again and try and restore that info. Would that work?

I can't say, as I don't use HTC Backup.
I prefer to just have my contacts on my Google (Gmail) account. This is the default on the phone, so unless you changed it, your contacts should all be on the cloud on Gmail (you can login to Gmail on a computer and confirm your contacts are there). Then will automatically restore to the phone when you first setup and enter your Google login and password.
If you've confirmed your contacts are on Gmail, and still not synching, go to Settings>Accounts & sync>Google, go to where Contacts is checked, uncheck it, and then check it again. Sometimes the sync will just get "stuck" and this will clear it up.
One M8 stuck on GPE 5.0.1 ROM boot animation
I foolishly reset factory data using TWRP under Wipe, and when I try to reinstall the GPE 5.0.1 ROM I couldn't find it. Then I try to restore my backed up Sense ROM and I couldn't find it under Restore. Maybe I deleted it and I forgot about it. Help me? I don't have MicroSD to store the GPE ROM which I thought would solve my problem because I thought I may have deleted the GPE ROM .zip file when I reset factory data. Now I am stuck on GPE ROM bootanimation the moving around dots. I need help please someone?

If you did the "default" TWRP factory reset (data, Dalvik, cache) this is not foolish, and is the correct wipe for moving to a new ROM.
You either bypassed the default, and went to "Advanced" and wiped the internal storage; or there is also the occasional instance where internal storage is corrupted by no fault of your own (more common with oldr TWRP versions?).
adb push a ROM to the internal storage (or adb sideload flash) while in recovery.
okay I kind of fixed my One M8. But one problem remains, I can't use my internal storage. My Camera App can't use the internal storage so does all the other apps such as Whatsapp or downloads from Chrome. It's as if my internal storage is not there or somehow malfunctioned or the ROM doesnt support the use of internal storage. But before I got into this problem (I forgot how I got it in the first place as it happened months ago only now I was able to fix my One M8), it worked perfectly fine, the Storage had no problem. But I had problems with Wifi, I thought maybe reflashing the ROM was a good idea to fix this but it didn't instead I can't access my internal storage by File Manager or by PC. If you have any solution please help me. Thanks in advanced.

Broken WiFi is usually a symptom of wrong (outdated) firmware for the current ROM.
Internal storage may be corrupted. Try to connect to a computer and format it, or you can try RUU.
Or try to re-flash custom recovery, or update or try a different one (if TWRP, try CWM/Philz or vice versa). Some folks fixed similar internal storage issues by flashing recovery.
I need help again.. I decided to format all my data but I kept my backup in the internal storage.. But after rebooting the phone it works but then I can't download apps from the play store or from chrome.. also I can't transfer files from my pc to my one m8.. But I can take photos (which I think uses internal storage).. Also my guest mode is not working.. Ithought something must be wrong with the internal storage so i wiped it out.. When i rebooted everything is black but when I long press the power button 'power off' shows up.. Something must be wrong.. Oh when connecting to my pc it shows CD Drive instead of HTC_OneM8 like it usually would.. Pls reply even when there's no hope to fix this phone at all..
I generally just wipe the data, cache and dalvik then flash the ROM. I have seen in a few threads to also wipe internal and SD. My question is what is getting wiped if I did do internal and SD. I've never done this before and wanted to ask before I did something I might regret later lol. Thanks.

Anything you keep on your internal SD card...like pictures/music/documents. I would recommend not doing this at all. If you keep a ROM or other flashable zips in these locations and wipe them before you flash them, they'll disappear. It is kind of like formatting.

wiping internal clears out everything. meaning you wont be able to reboot into the OS from recovery unless you have a rom on your external SDS to flash before rebooting. I would recommend it unless you know what you are doing and want to start fresh.

Wiping internal is wiping the internal sd card . . . so as the first person said, you'd lose all the pictures/movies/etc. one may have in their sd card...

i wipe internal storage on every clean flash. if you get in the habit of using auto backup apps like g+ for pics, and move anything useful from downloads to the sd card as you get it, its really no haste to wipe it. i also have titanium do full backups every night while im sleeping, for system and app data.
im sure some people wil say they havent wiped it in 10 years and never have an issue. i can tell you, i dont have a fraction of the random issues most people have that arent known bugs.

i have never tried it, but im pretty sure thats not accurate.
wiping internal storage should be nothing more than an advanced data wipe. instead of only deleting user data, you are deleting system data too. but you arent wiping any system files, so the system data should rebuild on boot.

you probably are correct. I only replied because I recent had an experience with it. I passed my G2 on to a friend. I offered to load up what ever ROM he wanted and he chose CM12. I got it all loaded up and working fine. Then I decided to go back into recovery to erase any data I had on the device. I selected Internal Storage in TWRP, rebooted and it wouldn't go beyond the lg screen.
If I am correct, you would never notice it since you wipe then flash.

weird, maybe you are right. ill try it next time i clean flash and see what happens.
none of the rom code should be stored there, so it should rebuild.
if you accidentally wiped system, it defiantly wouldnt boot then.
I NEVER wipe Internal or External sd. I wipe cache, data & dalvik from time to time. I'll wipe system as well if I'm flashing a new rom. I tend to keep all of my media and app backups on my External sd just in case something ever happens. For example, if you have to revert back to stock, your Internal sd is completely wiped.
Hi, I'm fairly new to XDA, flashing custom roms and rooting, but I'm really desperate right now.
I know many people probably already have had the same issue, but after searching all over the internet i didn't find my exact problem.
I used Nitrogen OS on my Pocofone F1, but after 1 Month of usage I wanted to try MIUI again, an important thing I remember is that i flashed a new kernel,
but I don't know if that makes any difference.
I made a backup of MIUI without any data on it (i made a hard reset before, so nothing would go wrong) and then installed Nitrogen OS the correct way (i wiped dalvik, data, ...) and everything, even installed the decrypter and everything worked fine.
Now I deleted dalvik, data, cache, ... and loaded the Backup of MIUI and as soon as I booted I suddenly got a bootup password, even though i should get nothing at all because it's basically a clean install.
I tried the normal password that i used all the time, but it didn't work, so i decided to get back to twrp.
Now i got a decryption password, that i don't know and the internal memory is 0 bytes large.
I loaded the nitrogen os backup that i also made, but it didn't work.
I read on other forums, that i should format my internal memory and try to flash the disable-force-encryption again, but i don't really know what to do exactly. i know how to format the memory, it's on the bottom when you want to delete data, dalvik, cache,... but still... .
Even if my phone is briked now, can anyone help me? I really don't know what to do

First of all your phone isn't bricked. It's going to be ok.
The bad thing is that you will lose your internal storage.
The procedure to format data is :
(While in twrp) "mount"-> check "data"-> "repair change file system" -> format your data partition.
After that, no password will be asked. Now wipe system davlik cache and data and reboot into recovery again.
If you have sd card installed start flashing. If you don't, you need to plug into a pc and copy what you need inside your internal storage.

Yes. That's the solution. After that your device will get encrypted again on reboot, unless you flash encryption disabler. I would suggest keeping the encryption and not flashing anything more

The error 7 occurs due to outdated vendor/firmware. Download latest firmware and flash it before the rom you want (for example if you want to clean flash a rom: wipe system, davlik, cache, data.. flash firmware.. flash rom [you won't get error 7].. flash gapps.. reboot)
