I don't want to factory reset, please help me out here.
thank you!
It worked fine just yesterday. the issue happened after the battery drained fully. I plugged it in and when i opened the phone i couldn't open the settings, also I can't access the settings like WIFI networks list from the notification shortcuts obviously.
I attached video explaining what's is happening

I have a MyAudio 708w on android 4.0.4, and i was using it when it suddenly dropped the wifi signal. When I tried to go to settings to reconnect, it froze, and i could only reboot it by long pressing the power button. After rebooting nothing changed, i can't even touch the lower right corner where the settings and notifications are because it freezes immediatelly. I also did a factory data reset from the recovery menu. After that I found a way to go to the settings (by adding a settings widget on the home screen) and the wifi line disappeared. I don't know how it is possible... the wifi radio is working by the way, i know that because i tried to add a new google account, and when i chose "existing account" it said i have to connect to the internet, and there i could activate the wifi and it also found the networks but it couldnt connect (it's stuck at obtaining ip adress).
Has anyone seen anything like this? Do you have any idea what i could do to fix it?
Thank you in advence!
So I have been using Omega v12 (23/09/2013) on my Galaxy S4 i9505 for a week or so absolutely no problems what so ever.
Then last night my phone just ran out of battery and safely shut down when I plugged it in and turned it on everything seemed fine until it got to the lock screen it was quite unresponsive and once i unlocked it the screen was black but showing the notification bar and it keeps bringing up a dialog box saying gmail has stopped working which once you press it it reboots. one time it said system UI has stopped working.
I can pull down the notification bar but i cannot do anything in there if you try to get to settings or for example turn bluetooth off it reboots. i was able to get the multitask menu up once where i could access google search and it allowed me to browse the web it even opened chrome but as soon as i closed it it rebooted again.
I really dont want to wipe data, keep that as my last option.
I have not seen anyone else with a similar problem i have seen a few people have 'system ui' crashes but they seem unrelated.
They were talking about installing something called '3Minit Framework'. I have no idea about this or what it does and i don't know how i would get it onto my phone, I have not tried to see if i can plug it into the computer and copy data i might try that when i get home from work...
On a different thread it was suggested to just reinstall from zip without wiping data. It didn't work.
I would like to maybe try flashing a different kernel but I don't know if right at this stage its safe to do so or even if it will make any difference?
If yes, what kernel would you guys suggest???
Any assistance would be much appreciated!

Hello to all,
Phone is Galaxy S3 running JB 4.3 stock. I ''played'' with options, more precisely I was clicking Developer options, until the end (7 times - activate it)... because of my stupid curiosity. Now, with developer options being enabled, I'm having problems with phone doesn't recognize USB, whether I want to connect it to PC, or charge via charger.
w.w.w.youtube.com/watch?v=-qnsU1yiH_w#t=22
On this link it's showed how to disable developer options, but you can't do it on Samsung phone (!!!). I know I have to do factory reset, but before that I want to backup everything I need. The thing is that currently I'm having 13% of a battery available, and I need to fix this USB/charger issue to be able to further work. Now it's turned off (doesn't charge in this state too), because if I run out of battery I'm scared I won't be able to start it up again.
P.S. I tried to check/uncheck USB debugging... nothing happens.
I know this is a 100% software problem, and I hope you guys know the solution. Googled it earlier, no similar topic.
Thanks in advance!
Sorted it out.
But what a crazy 1-1.5 hour is behind me. First activated ''Revoke USB debugging authorization'' at Developer options. Haven't recognise USB/charger. Then went to App manager -> All -> Settings -> Force stop. Then the party began. It randomly activated handsfree, car mode and S-voice. Then it locked itself while partying in backstage. Then it couldn't recognize my drawing pattern. Don't know my pin, can't type google account because of processes pooping from behind. Shut down, took me to ''downloading do not turn off target''. I was seconds from literally reset it through the window. Then it suddenly recognized pattern, I restarted it, and now it works like a charm. In short: never do force stop, especially on Settings.
Now I'm gonna backup all, and do the factory reset. And I'll have trauma clicking on android version for some time...
So i turned on my phone and strangely this had happened.
The buttons themselves still work as i can long-press to get the settings menu. Back still works (otherwise i wouldn't be able to do anything!)
I also noticed it had turned on bluetooth.
I don't even have the lock screen and the pull-down menu is blank. So i cannot change settings very easily now either, the only way to do it is physically going into the settings app.
Also i cannot go to the normal list of all your applications either. The only way to get to my applications is to manually add them to the home screen "launcher" thing (is this the launcher? i was never clear on terminology).
I am on SmallEUI V18 https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...eui-5-9-lemax2-aroma-installer-may-1.3524531/
I didn't realise it had been updated.
I cannot use adb, i think maybe i had disabled usb debugging because i heard leaving it on all the time was insecure. However now the developer options won't let me in too, it says "developer options are not available for this user" when i go into the menu. Tried re-enabling them but nothing.
Notifications aren't coming up so I couldn't change the USB connection setting. I was panicking thinking i would be unable to backup anything as i wouldn't be able to put the phone into MTP mode and it would be stuck in charging mode.
Thankfully i can still download and install applications. I found a program called MTP Enabler. I think it was from here but i cannot remember: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/app-root-r-3-3-marshmallow-mtp-enabler.3263467/
You need root for it but thankfully SuperSU still works.
Aurora store still works so i can get apps there too.
Backed up my applications settings manually (not sure if i did it correctly, i just took copies of the Android/data and Android/obb folders for the apps i wanted, but strangely didn't need root).
Also installed Titanium backup to back them up properly and get some of the Le Eco system apps like camera, IR remote that i might need.
SMS with SMS backup and restore.
Not sure the best way to backup whatsapp, just transferred the folder manually.
So i'm not sure the best way to fix everything.
I cannot remember how to flash roms or do anything since it has been so long since i did it. Anyway I do not even know if it is possible without ADB? Surely it must be, otherwise i might be screwed. At least i have root so i guess that gives me more hope of being able to fix things.
I was really worried at one point because i was trying to run TWRP or something to see if it would recover things but i couldn't remember how and somehow i ended up in Qualcom download mode, with no screen or anything. I had no idea what had happened. If that happens to anyone else, i think you get into it by holding down the power and volume down buttons at the same time. And to get out of it i managed to do it by holding power and volume up buttons. After that i have been too scared to turn off the phone though!
BTW in system analyse, i see something called Le Eco key although it only shows the start and end of it. Is this some kind of encryption key and what is it for? I think i remember it being important when flashing CFW for the first time but i cannot remember...?
After i've managed to sort this i definitely want to wipe my phone and start from scratch though, getting something a lot more up to date on there. At least i have the little i care about backed up now. Will have to re-learn what to do!
I found this thread:
Notification area, "home" and "recent" buttons not working
(I'm running cuoco92 stable release, so I also posted in that thread. But maybe this section here is a better place for my problem) Hi there! Right after charging, the notification area and the "Home" and "Recent" buttons stopped working...
forum.xda-developers.com
However I don't know what Users are on my device. How do i find this out? I have root amaze file manager and i can download any apps. What terminal app would you recommend?
Thanks
