[Q] "Process System is Not Responding"

I just installed the latest version of Apex, did a few customizations, then rebooted because I changed the LCD Density. Now, whenever I boot, it says "Process System is not responding". I can force close it, wait, or access the power menu. But, the screen is black, and I can't do anything. This is after a day full of reflashing and wiping because the damn device couldn't receive text messages.

If you have a backup try restoring

How? I'm trying to follow the guides, but whereever I go, the SBF zip is corrupted.

It appears to be working now. I think I'll hold off tinkering with it for a little while. I still would like to know why it did this, though. For now, I'll just restore my apps, but only the ones I use all the time,

Did you happen to delete any system apps when you were customizing? You might have deleted an app that settings was dependent on by accident, which could cause something like that.
ALWAYS do a nandroid backup before you start tinkering with the phone, it will save a lot of trouble.
Heres how to do it:
1. Boot into clockworkmod recovery using Koush's Bootstrap Recovery
2. Select Mounts and Storage, and mount /system and /data
3. Return to the main menu and select Backup and Restore
4. Select backup and let it work.
5. When its done, return to main menu, and choose to reboot.
Now you can tinker however you want. If you happen to mess something up, return to clockworkmod recovery (hint: if you can't get the phone to boot properly, boot the phone, and pull the battery when you see the M logo. Replace the battery and it should take you to clockworkmod)
1. Boot into recovery
2. Mount your /system and /data again
3. Go back and select Backup and Restore
4. Select restore, and select you restore file (should be the only one if you've only done 1 backup)
5. Let it work, then reboot the phone, and your phone will be in the exact same state as it was when you did the backup.
If you can't get into clockwork, you'll need to SBF.

Hope this helps!

Thanks, that'll really come in useful. The reason I couldn't fix it before is because Moto sucks, and encrypted the bootloader, so I was having a problem getting back into Clockwork. Did I say thanks? Oh well. Thanks.

Yeah moto does suck for that. They are giving options on future devices to lock and unlock the bootloader though (like the xoom) so at least they are making progress. Doesn't help us though...

Are you using Droid 2 Overclock? I'm asking because it allows setting screen density. I found that the new startup scripts added to Apex 1.4.1 don't play well with OC settings that were fine on Apex 1.3. The scripts add sysctl and CPU tweaks.
I set my OC settings to more conservative settings, and it has been far more stable. This isn't a knock against either product. Both work fine together with a bit of work.
Fab did release a test release (1.4.2 seems to be the informal name) that doesn't launch his new startup scripts automatically, and that's what I'm currently running.

Aye, I am. It seems fine most of the time for me. However, I've only been running for a few days, and have barely rebooted.
Sent from my DROID2 using XDA Premium App

I am had luck with 1.4.2 by setting my OC values to defaults before doing my pre-flash backup with Titanium Backup. After flashing, I was able to restore everything, including OC (default) values.
I also disabled the CPU tweaks Apex puts in /etc/init.d scripts, and and re-run QuickClock Advanced to recalculate my clock and voltage settings and imported those into Droid 2 Overclock.
So far (5 hours), it's been solid. If you don't want these issues, stick to Apex 1.4.0 for now. It was very stable.

[Q] !!Urgent!!Need Help.launcherpro crashing on start..ned to go to seeting to reset

hello ,
can somebody please help ..I am using CM7 AmeriCanAndroid 051211 build and it happened may be due to my fault that i used the old data.img from the previous version. i set my launcher pro as default and it started crashing . I need to set it back to AWD Laucher so that i can atleast get the options to work on the problem.
The launcher pro is crashing but I am sure AWD launcher will work fine .. Please let me know a way to either go the the settings menu or any way where i can atleast start my phone.

download this
install it with droid exploer
press your home buttom
select awd
update it.
done.

thank-you much...

for future reference when something like this happens, you go into settings/applications/manage applications and search for the app you set to default, or the launcher app, open it and clear defaults, then in your case you press the home button and it will ask you again which launcher you want to use, and you could've selected AWD launcher.

so what if you can't access the phon's settings sincs everything just keeps crashing?

as a last ditch, you can boot to recovery and format the data partition. that has all of your settings so, you will have to go through the first run setup, but that should fix your problem if it's just a setting issue.
good luck.

Force close problems with American Android off SD card

I am booting off American Android from my SD card, and I am getting force close errors for the following applications:
com.koushidutta.rommanager (when I boot up)
com.google.android.apps.maps
something about theme manager
at.mysandbox.android.wifi.tether (when I enable wifi)
com.google.android.apps.genie.geniewidget (when I go to clock)
When I turn on wifi, it doesn't do anything.
Also, when I restart, nothing saves. All of my changes(deleting widgets, changing wallpaper) do not persist between restarts.
I tried to do the fix permissions from ROM manager, but that does not help at all.

Always make few reboots before installing any apps or start to tweak system parameters.
I would start now from the scratch and format first the sdcard using SDFormatter, as I understood you didn't put too much effort's till now into that build.

The major difference is that you have the ROM in zip file and the ROM is deodexed, zipaligned and the /system/app folder has been moved to /data/app and it supports init.d script support.
Majority of the difference is behind the User Interface. In terms of user interface they both look alike.
Have you restored your phone to Factory settings considering your problem?

Flashed your ROM, everything working fine with great speed and also the battery life got improved dramatically. Very nice work.
Yes, I restored to the factory settings but no success, looks like hardware fault. Tried wifix manager app from play store but still the wifi and mobile data disconnect while screen turns off.

Thanks for your positive feedback
Have you tried this?
Goto System Settings > Under Wireless and Networks Tap WLAN > press menu key and tap advanced > Tap Keep WLAN on during sleep and select always.
Now your phone won't disconnect, if this is the case.

Thank you for your suggestion. This is the first thing I have done, but wifi and mobile data sleeps automatically. I have tried stock roms from different devices like saadusmani's ROM and your ROM but nothing improved in wifi and mobile data connection. I should claim warranty.
But before that I need to unroot the phone and change the stock splash screen (screen before boot animation). Do you know how to change the splash screen to stock Qmobile screen?

Restore to stock firmware by downloading it from www.ehtisham.com or www.labandroid.com

lgsetupwizardglitch and tibackup glitch

soooo I used titaniumbackup to freeze and delete some apps after I had backed em up
now I wanted to perform a factory reset on the phone so I started restoring/unfreezing all the apps I had deleted/frozen
problem 1:
now I had deleted an app called lgsetupwizard which is apparantly the setup you go trough first time you turn on your device,
now it started replacing my launcher with this, and I couldn't change it to anything else...
problem 2: for one app I accedentaly clicked the delete backup instead of restore which was an app called lgslideaside I don't know what it does
and if it's important for the system to still work after a reset..
and if I can reset the device with the setupwizard still frozen? :s
thanks in advance

At this point you're probably better off restoring the phone using either the *.tot or *.kdz method.

Problem1: Can you drag down the notification bar and click the settings icon right above? If so then you could probably set from there the home app.
Problem2: I don't think its really important for the system to operate since lgslideaside is like an gesture app switching with 3 fingers you can switch apps if you slide your fingers to the other side so slideaside ;p
I don't know or you can reset the device with the setupwizard frozen I think you can but did you tryed to enable it from the Apps tab in the settings?
Else if setupwizard is really screwed and if its important then you could maybe push the setupwizard and the lgslideaside to your phone but you have to take it from the same rom you have but if you have stock then try to find a stock rom from the same android version and the the apk/odex. If everything doesn't work then you maybe need to flash the Stock android 4.4.2 kdz or jellybean in normal mode but This would be the last thing i would recommend to you since your phone is still booting ;p
Try my things and i hope your problem couldbe solved:good:
