I get this message when I boot up.
I cannot access settings so I cannot perform a factory reset.
Is there any way to factory reset when you cannot access "Settings" because of constant force closes.
I am running stock but with lots of side-loaded apps.
I can access the file explorer. That is the only thing I can open that will remain open even though I get constant force close popups like "android.process.acore has stopped... android.process.media has stopped unexpectedly...
Is my gtab toast? Can it be saved or should I return it?
I get this all the time, with all the mods I do. Don't worry, your system is fixable.
For me, I use clockworkmod recovery .08. There's a "fix permissions" option and this always fixes the problem for me. It also allows a data wipe within recovery.
If you are 100% stock, you could try one of the stock ROM's here as well - that might get you working. You have a few options, here. Check out the FAQ in my signature. I'm actually posting up the new stock update that I pulled from TnT, today.
EDIT: Direct link the the stock ROM updates -- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=842000. You'd need to understand how to actually run these, which I mention in the FAQ section.
thx Roebeet, I was able to update to the new stock rom.
But I still have the same problem. Is there any other way to wipe my data. Can it be done while connected by usb or do i have to root it?
Is there any hardware button method to do a factory reset?
I still cannot open settings... it gets canceled by the force closes.
I am ready to give upon my G-Tab which I was enjoying so much.
Does anyone know how to wipe the date if you cannot open settings???
Try clockworkmod - it really is a great tool. You can find it in the Tnt Lite dev section as I have a link for .08.
For UID issues, "fix permissions" will correct it. And you can wipe data via clockworkmod as well. You can even remove it by flashing back to stock -- the latest stock firmware works as I've done it myself, the other day.
Btw, there are so many threads here that I sometimes miss replying. I dont ignore, I just might miss a post. Always feel free to PM me if you have a question.
I had a similar issue where something got corrupted in my user data and I was completely unable to start the settings or open the keyboard. I had to flash back to the full vanilla ROM because it contained clockworkmod, which was the only option available to accomplish a factory reset. That wasn't a fun day.
Think I figured out a key reason for sudden UID issues
People including me are getting UID errors even after having a stable rom and several reboots with no issues. Based on guinea piggin' my G, I can confirm the issues happen on apparently stable installs anytime you update a Google app.
Case in point, I updated Google Voice and Gmail and soon after I rebooted the G- UID city. I have started with a clean rom and installed many different apps to test. The only apps that hose the device at reboot are the GAPPS and it is not just if you update with the package. Simply updating from market will work fine, until you reboot and then it is a few minutes for trying to shut the device down and then perhaps two reboot attempts using fixed permissions.
TnT 2.20 (at least) does NOT like GAPP updates. How could VS bork this up so bad that fundamental apps for Android bork the device?
Again, the Tap UI team and who hired them and approved it on the Gtablet should be fired, rehired for a minute and then fired for good. Word.
This sounds kind of "preachy," but don't give up.
There is a learning curve to the G-Tablet, and it takes a good bit of reading on this site and assimilating the info.
I will testify that I had a hugely bad malfunction and and even worse fix on my tablet.
Using suggestions from helpful folk -- and carefully researching what I needed to do -- I was able to get my tablet back working just fine. To be sure, it's not stock any more!!! But I actually believe that with all I learned about flashing, mods, etc., I now could go back and make it stock again if I wanted to.
Don't give up. Just keep reading and researching the learning.

Not true for me, I installed the new Gmail from the Market with no problems. I am on TNTLite 2.2.1.
Google Voice has always been a hack for a tablet, since it is not actually phone. You might want to pull it out and see if your issues are solved.
I am back up and running thanks to clockwordmod. Thanks again!

Good to hear and thanks for the update!
I am currently having this problem. I am hoping to sell my 10" Android 2.2 Tablet PC on Craigslist... I need to fix this Error... I've only used it 10 times to play Angry Birds. The forum with the links I am confused as to what one to use... I am younger I must say. I am not a 21 year old "computer whiz"/.NET/OS maker... I do make websites. Besides that... I do not know how to "Wipe my system partition" as my Error message says to. Especially due to the fact I cannot open Settings. PLEASE HELP. I may have repeated things said above in his problems but I would like a "NOOB" walk through... (Because I am one). Please help. Thanks in advance. -Sophomoric
Hey, I had a same after my phone battery was empty and it turned off. I kept it off and recharged it, then I had the feeling "I'm feeling Lucky" -.-' so nice from google. xD
Had to wipe everything then full reinstall... such a pain.
Probably the cleanest solution HERE
Long time amateur rooted phone operator here – pleased to meet you! I’ve been using MeanBean (Android 4.1) for about a year now, updating a stable every couple months.
Over the past month or two, I’ve been noticing minor problems with my HTC EVO 4G LTE, which gradually have gotten worse and culminated with a major problem today. Certain apps had been force closing several times each time I opened them, and I noticed very funky battery depletion patterns as well as overheating during GPS navigation. Then, this morning I woke to find my phone repeatedly cycling the MeanBean boot gif (“splash page?”) without ever fully booting. Forcing a restart didn’t help kickstart the engine, so I resorted to flashing an old backup from January (after wiping of course).
Well, this didn’t work either, and somehow my list of backups got wiped, with no OS installed, and no flashable ROM zip on the phone. From that point I did a lot of reading and searching, both on XDA and the big G. I slightly improved my very novice understanding of the inner workings of Android and basic ADB commands, but still have yet to regain a working system. I did manage to download onto my computer the BeanStalk ROM (Android 4.3) and associated gapps, push both to my phone's /data/media/0/ folder with ADB, and even flash it…but upon reboot that just created a minute long loop between the initial HTC screen and a black screen (Is this what people are referring to as a “boot loop?”). I tried re-wiping and re-flashing to no avail. And now, interestingly enough, the two zips I pushed have disappeared, and do not reappear when I re-push them.
Relevant Stats:
S-On
HBoot 1.19
TWRP 2.3.3.0
My old Dell is running 32-bit Vista, and I have adb.exe installed and know the basics of using it, but don’t have a SDK installed.
I figured this would be a good time to stop “trying things,” and ask for help from people with a lot more experience with this than me with the hopes of increasing the chances that I improve my ROM and Kernel rather than brick my phone. :silly: Do I need S-Off to flash BeanStalk? Could my low remaining storage and lack of an SD card be playing a role? I’m noticing “unable to mount sdcard” and “unable to mount internal storage” a lot when tinkering in TWRP.
Any help is greatly appreciated! :good: Thanks for reading!
Interesting that crying "brick" is discouraged, yet all the threads that do it in the title seem to get a response, and a well-researched and well-explained statement of facts doesn't.
Anyhow, I ended up resorting to the technique in the second post here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2354029. I successfully resolved the problem and booted a brand new operating system (BeanStalk ROM, Android 4.3).
The phone has worked better than it has in months since problems with the previous ROM (MeanBean, Android 4.1) started occuring. Unfortunately, I had to sacrifice a ton of photo edits and data that weren't backed up in the cloud (only on my phone), but it was totally worth it to have a working phone and smooth operating system again.
Hi,
I'm having this issue where I get a pop-up window saying "Android is upgrading..." and "Starting applications..." every time I reboot the phone. It's not the same as when I wipe the dalvik cache where it states "Optimizing applications # through #" for about a minute or two on reboot. What I'm seeing is about 1 to 3 seconds.
I did a complete factory reset, re-flashed the ICS RUU as well as the ROM. It was fine in the beginning and for quite a while after I reinstalled my apps but it eventually came back.
I tried uninstalling apps a few at a time and it didn't change anything until I got down to the last four and then it went away. So, I then tried restoring from nandroid backup and just removing those four apps but it didn't work that time. The issue was unaffected.
I realize that the symptoms point to one or more of my apps but I was wondering if there is some kind of diagnostic logger that I can use to record whats happening during reboot that might offer some hints as to which one(s). One possible indirect culprit might be Superuser. I've had a permanent issue with updating the SU binary. When I do, I lose the ability to add new root apps. I keep root for existing root apps, but SU won't detect any requests from new apps. Therefore, I simply don't update the binary and I have no problems with new apps.
Any suggestions or recommendations would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

1.) How did you root the rez? some are very picky 2.) are you using Titanium backup to restore system apps or using an app like kernel tuner?
I used the ICS RUU installation guide on TeamBAMF which walks you through using the HTC bootloader unlocker, flashing a recovery and a custom ROM. Later on, I used the S-OFF tool from JuopunutBear and flashed RezROM Ex 3.4.
I do use TBU but not to restore system apps or any data in general. I understood a long time ago that restoring data can lead to trouble so I rarely do it. I occasionally use TBU to restore user apps (no data) but have gotten into the habit of using the market links to get the app directly from the market.

what recovery are you using? Amon ra 3.1.6 has the su and superuser installer built in and ive never had issues....id also suggest after actually running an RUU.exe and not an OTA (ph98img file) to do the amon ra method and a pure clean flash...should fix your issue
Ok. I'll try your suggestion to help solve the Superuser problem, but what do you think about getting rid of the "upgrading" messages? Is there a way to record what the system is doing during reboot?

if you are familliar with adb you can pull a logcat....to be honest though this does sound like either a bad or unclean flash of a rom or the whole rom itself

You are correct that the re-flash will solve the problem, but only temporarily. If this was a first time occurrence, I agree that a pure clean re-flash is the best approach but I've already done that numerous times, well over a dozen in the past year or so.
Only a couple weeks ago I did a complete wipe of everything (factory reset, data, cache, dalvik cache, boot, system, rotate settings AND battery stats) and then re-flashed the RUU four (4) times back-to-back. The TeamBAMF guide says to flash it twice so I doubled it to be sure. I then flashed the ROM twice. That solved the "Updating" problem as it always has. However, once I finished re-installing my most frequently used apps, the problem came back.
It hasn't been consistent. It doesn't always come back. Doing the wipe and re-flash works about 50% of the time. I'll go months without it showing up again and then all of the sudden, there it is. It doesn't seem to correlate to the installation of any one particular app. I've tried installing only a few at a time and watching it but when it does come back, it never occurs until after I've installed my most basic line-up.
If there is any one activity that it seems to follow it is after I've had another issue (usually tinkering with a root app or mod and didn't like the way it turned out) and performed a wipe and nandroid restore. It doesn't come back every time, but it's on that initial reboot when I usually first notice it. In those cases, it's always hard to say whether the root app or mod caused the problem or did the wipe and restore do it.

which leads me to believe its a rom issue for that specific rom...ive never used that one so i cant verify thats what it for sure is....but having to flash the same rom twice for it to work seems like what can cause it in the first place because it already obviously clearly has some bugs...also flashing an RUU (which is a windows .exe based program...many people confuse this with an OTA ph98img file) is actually partitioning, wiping, and re installing the pure factory OS, HBOOT, and Recovery... which no recovery can do....which shouldnt be done directly before a rom install...a full thorough wipe in a custom recovery and then the install of the actual rom you are trying to obtain is how it should be done...to be honest though with how buggy this rom sounds id just suggest going to a new rom....which i have good suggestions for sense based ones

Well, if you wouldn't mind offering some of your ROM suggestions and perhaps a sound RUU download source I'll give it a go and see what happens. I'm sure the initial results will be positive, it's the long-term that will be the real test.
One more piece of potentially useful information. I've converted one market app from user to system and froze, uninstalled or converted several user apps that were installed as system apps by the ROM. I read in one thread where someone had the same issue and a responder theorized that it could be from converting a user app to system. The responder followed saying the issue could be a symptom of the converted app not having corresponding "odex" files. I'm only a modest tinkerer and certainly not a developer so I'm not sure what that means or how important that is. However, I tried reversing the three conversions that I did and the issue persisted.

if youve already used an ruu once you dont need to do it everytime you flash a rom....and depending on the rom certain recoveries wont work for them...good example amon ra will not work for JB or higher....if staying on ICS or sense based roms stick with amon ra only....im guessing your looking for a good Sense based rom correct?.....as for converting apps...i highly suggest against it on sense rom and can cause issues with the rom...on aosp its fine but sense just doesnt like some of them

My mistake, but I should have been more specific. I've only re-flashed the RUU three... maybe four times since I've owned the phone and only as a last resort to fix a problem that a wipe and/or ROM re-flash alone wasn't correcting.
As for recovery, I've only used Amon Ra on my Rezound. It's what was recommended in the Team BAMF guide and I've stuck with it. I do prefer a sense-based ROM and ICS works fine for me right now. The HTC Incredible was my first smart phone and I rooted that within a month of getting it. I tried a few ROMs but eventually settled on Skyraider which I really liked. RezROM is the only comperable ROM that I've come accross for the Rezound, but if you have recommendations, I'll give them a try.
Here's what I've done so far. The ICS RUU linked in the Team BAMF guide was an internal flash through the bootloader. To eliminate that as a possible cause, I found a couple .exe versions to run from my PC.
On the first run, I immediately flashed RezROM and used Amon Ra to install Superuser and SU as you suggested. I updated Superuser and then installed a few basic root apps: Titanium Backup, Root Explorer, QuickBoot, Busy Box, Root Checker and Root Validator. There were no issues until I starting using those root apps. I was periodically rebooting and it wasn't until I updated Busybox and ran TBU and Root Explorer that the "Android is upgrading..." message came back. Worse than before, it was doing the "Optomizing apps # through ##" part where before it was just the "upgrading" message. I uninstalled all of them one-by-one but whatever happened was perminant because it didn't go away so I did a full wipe and used the second ICS RUU .exe. On the second run I stayed stock. Again, I used Amon Ra to install Superuser and SU. I updated Superuser and then installed those same basic root apps. So far, no issues.
With these results, it's pretty evident that the problem is ROM related, but not necessarily a bug as much as a compatibility discrepancy. This issue has never been this persistent until the last few months and within that time, there has been several updates for TBU, Root Explorer and Busybox. I agree that switching to a different ROM may be the ultimate solution, but unless there is one that is a RezROM comparable, I'm not ready to write it off just yet. If there's a way to pin point which app is the cause, I might be able to find a workaround or persuade the developer to come up with a fix, I'd much rather try that first.
But again, I'm certainly interested in trying out any ROM suggestions you might have to offer in the meantime.
In the process of trying to nail down this problem, I've discovered that it appears to have something to do with the relationship between superuser and RezROM.
Since I first flashed RezROM, I haven't been able to update superuser or the binary in any way. In addition to downloading from the market, I've tried re-installing superuser with Amon Ra, flashing it from the sdcard in recovery and from adb. No matter how I do it, I either lose root or it shuts down superuser's ability to detect requests from new root apps. I tried to find a solution but had no success so I just decided to ignore it as long as it didn't effect functionality. I've had root app issues here and there but always chalked it up to a bug with that particular app and either found a fix or ditched the app altogether.
I've been able to isolate superuser as the cause of the "upgrading" message issue with several full wipes, RezROM and RUU re-flashes. In my last three attempts to narrow it down, I did completely sterile RUU and RezROM flashes and used Root Explorer and Root Checker as test apps. In each attempt, I lost root and the "upgrading" messages returned as soon as I updated superuser or the binary. I tried doing the same with the stock ROM and with one of the BAMF ROMs and these problems don't occur with either of them.
So, with the "Android is upgrading" message popping up repeatedly, having new stability problems with previously dependable apps and increasing system bugs, it's apparent that the consequences of having such a severely outdated superuser has finally caught up with me. It definitely looks like RezROM is the problem and unless there are some options that I might try to fix it myself, it's up to the developer. I've contacted them but I'm not optimistic that they'll be willing to put any time into coming up with a fix since the Rezound is so "dated".
I had this popup on every boot on my Evo 3D with the stock ICS Sense 3.6 ROM, I still have it on my Rezound with a custom ICS Sense 4.1 ROM. I just assumed it's standard behaviour from Android, why would you think it's an issue if it doesn't cause any problems?
Hi XDA,
first, I greatly appreciate all the effort you are putting into this. You have made using my age-old i9300 a blessing multiple times. So thank you for that!
Now on to my problem. I have recently wiped&clean-installed the CM-13.0-20151222-NIGHTLY build and appear to have lost root-access. I did enable it in the developer options (I have tried both app and adp and "just" app access) but rootChecker ist still returning a negative result and any app using root doesn't function (titanium back-up for example). Primarily I want to use it to stop some apps from auto-starting that I hardly ever use.
I had read that when updating the ClockWorkRecovery (latest verison.. 6.0.4.7) prompts you if you want to re-enable root access (like it did when I first auto-updated from CM11 to CM13 (which obviously didn't work which is when I wiped everything and flashed the CM-13.0-20151222-NIGHTLY)). Today a new nightly came out and I thought I'd give it a shot but the checksum constantly fails from within the updater and it won't allow me to flash it claiming the download is bad (multiple downloads tried, always same result).
Is anyone else experiencing these issues with the checksum Fail and the lost "full" root access? Did you manage to find a solution to it?
Kind regards,
kidd
Tried two times downloading update and both times got checksum error, then downloaded manually and dirty flashed in TWRP, everything went fine.
Do an error test on your hdd and power cycle your router.
If the hdd is corrupt it will corrupt data. If the routers network address translator is borked it will corrupt data.
I wish I stole my HTC M9.
The issue has appears to have resolved itself. The Update went through fine after I had tried the next day.
Is there any fix for the converting the pseudo-root back to the full root you know of?
Best,
Kidd
I'm very new to the rooting community, and I'm well aware of all of the problems. I've messed around, and bricked my phone many times but always knew how to fix it by flashing the custom rom. I've did whole of April until I figured out the proper rooting my model's for 6.0.1 software, and the 7.1.1 software. I eventually got tired of repeating this process, so in May (after I properly rooted my device and everything worked perfectly) I backed up everything including my system in TWRP.
Now the problem is, after using the xui tuner from xposed installer a bit, my phone seemed working for a bit, and lockscreen worked, but it randomly kept restarting at the boot animation . I grew impatient and restarted my phone properly a couple times but it kept rebooting after I unlocked my phone or just waited at my lockscreen. I then started got scared that I damaged something in my system or software, so I went to use TWRP to restore my backup (which I also literally backed up on this Tuesday). It apparently was successful, until the bootlogo freezing and saying my kernal wasn't SEANDROID ENFORCING.
Then now, I kept reformatting my data and restarting but it wouldn't work, it kept failing. So I gave up, and flashed my stock rom. This worked, but I obviously lost all my data. So to possibly help someone, I want to list what I think could've been the problem. (Still new, so I may list alot of unlikely things. Also random order)
1. I didn't format my data before the first restore, thus it failing.
2. Improper backup, I either backed up unnecessary partions like radio, or TWRP just didn't backup properly.
3. My sd card, I had many problems with my sd card before doing this type of stuff, but it went away during may. During may however, I backed up my magisk modules to it too, but they didn't appear on TWRP. Meaning it may have stopped working again. It also deleted my root folder, where I held the magisk zip and uninstaller.
Now this could bring another problem, I was using Magisk and Xposed installer, while also having my stock framework, xposed framework, and sony framwork (this was to use remote play), and in result my phone couldn't handle it and the module from both Magisk and Xposed.
4. I backed up my system while using the ashyx encryption zip, meaning when TWRP restored encrypted files?
5? XUI Tuner, I modified too many things with the app and probably did something to to the root directory. (Most likely Unlikely)
6. I modified my build prop by adding more code like the android users function, and TWRP probably couldn't back that up so it restored wrong like in 2
7? I modified TWRP by using a custom theme in the recovery, making certain functions like backup and restore not work?
8. I was using an old version of TWRP, 3.0.2 instead of 3.2 because 3.2. However, this is because 3.2 didn't work with my phone, and neither did 3.1.
I now flashed the stock rom, and everything works again. I just have to re-root. I didn't lose much data really, and I backed up some stuff in samsung cloud anyway. I just wanted to make this thread so I can fix the problem properly in the future, in which someone else may need it too. This model of samsung phone really isn't popular in the community, so it really would be helpful to other people. The solution could also work for other J700 variants, especially J700T1 since it's the most similar.
P.S. This is also just a small thing to help people too. Rooting this model is actually pretty easy, there's just a catch for one version of it.
6.0.1 can easily be rooted, especially with autoroot. It's works well, and you don't have to lose anydata at ALL! However magisk is untested.
7.1.1 on the other hand does require to format it's data to work so you have to back up anything you want to keep.. Superuser for me made wifi and the flashlight inaccessible, so I had to use Magisk. Which worked fine. There are two different versions of this root though. (Tested Once) One is basically like how the stock rom and has the manual, mobile data quick setting, and battery settings. to get it, don't use ashyx encrptyion . The other is like how you got it your device and set it up normally, no manual or extra settings, and requires ashyx encryption for this. The one I used was the ashyx encrpytion, and I was fine using this method because I kinda already lost everything over and over so I didn't care (end of april).
Edit: Turns out the stock version happens when you flash the stock rom, then immediately flash a custom recovery, and formatting the data without launching the the phone. I think this happens because when you get your phone, and activate it with a carrier sim card it downloads the additional files for that carrier which allows and when you format the data it formats the carrier version instead of the default system on the phone.
I hope we can find a solution for the kernal problem, so other people can fix this properly.
I would also like to ask if someone can make a odin and TWRP flashable kernal file of both the 6.0.1 and 7.1.1 versions of the SM-J700 variants, but for now in this thread the J700T is fine, unless all variants have the same stock kernal. This could be a solution and very helpful.
