[Q] (Q) Strange Force Close Syndrome - Acer Iconia A500

Checked around but no details for my prob...
Suddenly getting many FCs for software that was previously working... Namely HD games that others state work fine on Iconia. Software that was working fine 2 days ago, suddenly FC immediately after startup.
I'm running Stock 3.1 rom rooted, with a tweaked kernel (thor latest).
Anyone else getting similar issues lately? Bit of a noob but would love to avoid a wipe or flashing a new rom...
Greatful for any advice from you experts... Do lead thru in baby steps... Ta!!

what about a wipe of just the data for one of the offending apps?

Some are newly downloaded from market e.g. "Diversion". Odd, as it was working along with others perfectly fine a day or 2 ago. Now it's like a plague of software immediately FCing...
Possibly need to do a CWM wipe of data or a factory reset (makes me nervous) or bite the bullet and try a clean 3.2 rom with root...
Any further advice?

I got something similar with stock 3.1, no hd or tegara apps working all FC. happened after a live wall got distorted or corrupted, the same way like video corruption on PC, before this i had installed sprinkle game. Fixed it with full format, and never installed sprinkle or that live wall again.

Phew... was feeling like I was the only one! Thanks... So what way should I run a full format? How much will I lose (I do have Titanium backup throughout)? Should I even restore the Iconia Phone status via the market program BEFORE I wipe?
Sorry for panic... just want to be SAFE!

i just ran format from the settings menu, i don't know about backup

Thanks... I'll try later as a last resort. Fingers into cross-mode!
EDIT - Bit the bullet and tried a 3.2 rom... my virgin turn but seems to have worked now! Possibly a CWM use of wipe data / cache may have worked, but why not jump in the thrilling fire of flashing roms!

Did I kill my Hero? FC's and other weird problems.

So for the last 5 days I had some very weird problems with my phone. About 2 weeks ago I started with my first Cronos Rom and it worked great. I flashed 1.5 and 1.5.1 without problems and I used it without an ext partition all the time. But then the problems started. When I wiped my whole phone and tried to reinstall 1.5.1 JIT, the phone didnt boot anymore (stuck on the "Android" bootscreen). I wiped again and again, tried 1.5.1 without JIT, 1.5 etc, but I couldt get the phone to work. Nothing worked, so I created an ext partition and tried again. It worked. My phone started and I was able to use it for about a day without problems though I didnt want apps2sd. But then some other weird things happened. 3 Days ago I bought a bigger SD Card, partitioned it, wiped the whole phone and flashed 1.5.1 JIT. The phone started, but after I installed a few apps, I got an error message (installing xxx failed). I found out that theres an "repair ext" function, and it worked, but after I installed some more apps, the problem was back. The second problem was, that after rebooting the phone, more and more apps wouldnt start anymore (FC). The last problem that occured was an FC of the market app. After that, I wiped everything again, tried to flash 1.5.1 JIT, but it happened exactly the same like on the first time. Problems installing apps, FCs, stuck on boot etc.
I am totally down at the moment because I killed my whole weekend trying to get my phone working again. Could anyone please help my with this? I just dont understand what I did wrong. Shouldnt a complete wipe fix almost every problem? And I dont understand why I suddenly cant use my phone without an ext partition. Any Cronos version I try freezes on bootscreen without an ext patition. Is there any way to get my hero working again? Please please help me.
(PS: I also posted this on the Cronos Board.)
I would take out the sd card, wipe system and dalvik cache, and install some custom rom.
well, to make sure it is NOT your phone, did you try another ROM? Eliminate possible problems?
At least try something that is known and stable, like a stock rom, the Taiwain-rooted-repacks (not a rom based on it, but just the taiwan rom rooted) or good ol' MoDaCo 3.2 (based on 1.5 stock).
Til now I just tried the last 2 or 3 Cronos Roms, and as I said, they didnt work, but when I get home from work I'll try the Modaco Rom I used before.
I dont understand what this has to do with the Rom I use. I always wiped the whole phone, dalvik, etc. so shouldnt it just work like the first time I flashed it? No matter what Rom I use?
Another weird thing (could have something to do with this): After I wiped everything and flashed Cronos 1.5.1 JIT, the market still knew what apps I had installed last time. It showed my bought apps AND the apps I was able to install before the latest crash. So does this mean the phone wasnt wiped completely?
The market tracks your purchases and (free) downloads through your google account. So that's normal that the download-list is full.
But it might very well be that you didn't wipe correctly, although I'm curious how you manage to accomplish that. What is your current recovery?
The whole point about trying another ROM is elimination. It doesn't need to make sense, but you need to check things of the list.
There is something weird going on, so trying to solve it logically will only get you so far . Keep trying to narrow down the list of causes. Might well be a bug with Cronos 1.5, or the overclock not working these days because your phone is just a bit hotter than before, who knows.. Like I said: eliminate causes!
I'm using the newest AmonRa recovery to wipe the phone.
Theres one thing I forgot: Yesterday I flashed 1.5.1 without JIT, and then 1.5.1 JIT right after it (just rebooted a few times between). The phone worked great until my SD card crashed. In the taskbar it always showed me "checking for errors"(something like that, my phone's in german ), but in my PC and in the recovery the card worked like always, so I had to wipe the card and start again from the beginning.
Try another ROM , and if that doesn't work, try without SD card.

Maybe sdcard faulty? What are the logs you get when booting up the phone?
Soooo, I wiped everything again and flashed Modaco 2.8 without an ext partition. It booted correctly, so I wiped the dalvik cache and flashed Cronos 1.5.1 JIT. It also booted (wow, first time it booted without ext since all the problems started to occur) but I instantly got FC's (phone app for example). Now I wiped completely again and flashed 1.5.1 JIT. I hope it boots, as I still dont have an ext partition. As soon as I know something new, I'm gonna tell you.
So now it seems like its working again. I was able to install all the apps I need without a single error and now I'm restoring my settings and contacts. Suddenly it even works without ext again.
I guess there was something very big f*ked up that I couldnt repair by simple wiping the phone. Very weird that just flashing Modaco got it running again. Now I have back my working phone with ultrafast Cronos Rom and without App2SD, perfect. At least till now I hope it keeps working.
Thanks for your help guys, I think I would have smashed the phone to the wall sooner or later. I never thought about flashing Modaco so I'm happy there are people like you.
Thanks again, and thanks to Feeyo for his unbelievable Rom.
PS: Can I uninstall, Facebook and Footprints without destroying everything again?
Yes, just delete both apps using ADB or use a root explorer, search both apps in System/app and delete them.
Or you could use the MoDaCo online kitchen for removing those apps.

Nothing works as it should...

I can't begin to describe how frustrated this phone has made me. I am not an Android "n00b" by any stretch. I have had 4 different Android phones, have flashed at LEAST 100 different roms, made complete rom themes, and even glued together one of the first complete Gingerbread roms to flash from recovery for the Motorola Droid (not from source, but first posted rom with working camera, Gapps, and all from standard recovery - not nandroid). With that being said, this phone is next to impossible for me to use. I've lost track of all of the problems I have had with this thing. Everything from CWM not being able to restore any backups, horrible battery life, boot loops galore, the phone freezing anytime it is plugged into the computer or wall (not the car charger, oddly enough), boot loops, tried the Yellow Clockwork (and everything failed that could on that), flashing roms that would work great until you reboot the first time, and so on and so forth. WHEN the phone works, it's great. However, that is starting to become quite rare. Most recently I have been stuck on trying to get either Evil Fascinate to work or MIUIWiz with no luck for either. EF works great...until I restore my apps. Once I reboot, it's all over. EVERYTHING force closes and it becomes completely unusable. Doesn't matter what kernel I use, it always happens. And this is now happening with both 3.5.1 and 3.6.0. Plus I could just watch the battery life plummet as I was using it. I even tried the EC01 radio with it, as it was suggested that might be better. So, I decided to try MIUIWiz. Followed the directions perfectly. Wiped everything, flashed a JT Kernel from 4/15, flashed rom, and...guess what? Boot loops. I am on ClockworkMod 3.0.2.7. I am familiar with how to wipe data/cache/dalvik. There were no voltage settings to wipe. I did check to see if Voodoo was enabled before booting. I just don't know what else to do. This isn't exactly rocket science and I really feel it can't just be user error at this stage with all of the different issues I have ran across. I'm pretty much at the stage that I am gonna return it to stock and sell it, but would really like to enjoy it for a little while longer... Thoughts?
Just for laughs, I downloaded Community Rom 1.3. Was on EF 3.6 (with nothing restored, just signed into Google). Rebooted to Recovery, wiped everything, installed Comm Rom and never got past the Samsung screen. *sigh* Seems odds since they are based on the same base, but yea, that's how it's been going for me.
I think since you are so god awfully experienced that you are looking over something that probably seems useless to you, ive NEVER experienced any of your problems and I can tell you its not the phone.. I would read up about your specific problems or ask a specific question and you might get the help you need.
Edit:Bootloops are user error nearly every time. Unless you have a corrupt download or something.

As much as your sarcasm warrants a rude response, I'll choose not to stoop to that level. The point of the post was that there is not a "specific" problem. Hence the title, "Nothing works as it should..." Not every phone is the same, and just because you have experienced any of these problems does not determine whether my issues are phone related or not. Battery life issues are very common place, which is evident in many threads. The phone lagging when plugged in is most CERTAINLY a phone issue and has nothing to do with rom flashing. It appears this is a firmware issue and is not likely to be fixed at all. Also, I pointed out the steps used to flash the rom, which are posted in the thread, and still have problems with boot loops. So, I guess every rom I download is corrupted? Even though on different networks and computers? That's some luck I have...
Are you referring to "download" mode when you said yellow cwm? If so then maybe reinstall the samsung drivers and give it a clean flash including the pit with voodoo disabled. If you have bad problems like you are having that fixes anything I encounter.
Edit: if you use odin, try heimdall

The newest imnuts kernel installs a yellow CWM, and nothing worked right at all on that. Every verification failed. SO I ODINed back to stock and retried everything anew. Anytime I restore my apps with Titanium, the next reboot fails. I even just went back to stock again, flashed CWM Red 3.0.2.8ti and the stock kernel with recovery fix, restored apps again and rebooted and it did the same thing. I didn't have any issues with Titanium restoring stuff before, having successfully used it on EF 3.5.1 and ComRom 1.3 but not those don't work for me either anymore. I've tried restoring just the apps with no data and that doesn't seem to make a difference either.
EDIT - It must have something to do with Titanium. Gonna try an older version and see if that works. It looks like they updated it recently and maybe it is just not playing nice with anything for my phone.
When you restore try not restoring system data, that is check the box for user applications only. That might be the issue.
yea, I'm going to say Ti backup is the problem because you mention ti every time you have a problem. personally I don't use ti cause its never played nice for me, but did you try manually reinstalling a couple of apps reboot and see if the same problem happened? that would really narrow it down almost completely to ti.
Fascinate 2.2 1.2GHz(uv)
download the imnuts peanut butta jellytime kernel of choice and put it on your sdcard. Odin back to the stock rom of your choice (i recommended eb01 as other odin packages cause bad music quality.), and let the phone boot up.
Next, pull the battery and go back into download mode. Odin one of times_infinity's cwm packages. Then replace the battery and boot straight into CWM. Wipe data, cache, and dalbik and then flash community rom 1.3. IMMEDIATELY AFTER (meaning in the same cwm as when you flashed comm rom 1.3) flash the imnuts kernel that you put on your sdcard. Phone should boot up fine and be fully functional. As mentioned earlier by someone, dont restore system data with titanium backup.
It's not just the system data that is causing issues, as I have tried it both ways, and of course, only restoring system data that is labeled green when attempting to do so. And, it did work previously on EF 3.5.1 but no longer does. I'll give it another shot using thefunkbot's directions. Still confused as to why EF is the only rom that boots normally.
Alright, so that did get Com Rom running. I had actually tried that method before, but it took so long on the Samsung screen that I was sure that it was froze. I just let it go this time, and after about 5 minutes it finally started. None on the other roms I tried took that long, but whatever works...
that's probably due to voodoo, which takes about that time to install/initiate.
Yea, you can hear the creepy robot lady telling you what's going on, but it took a couple of minutes after that even. Also, I skipped Titanium and restored the apps manually. Some were from my SD card and some from the Market, and only about half of them worked after rebooting. Meh
Flash com rom, then flash the otb kernel. Comrom will boot and you will enjoy your phone.
I got Com Rom to boot, but alot of the apps won't reinstall without force closing after rebooting. Not being able to use Titanium is a major PITA to me. But it's not just Com Rom, it's EF, and even the stock rom. Just never had an issue with it before now. But even installing apps through the Market or from the SD card also created issues, so I dunno what is going on.
If you're getting a **** ton of FCs, try fixing permissions via Terminal Emulator. Run 'fxpms' and it *should* solve some FC issues. Also, the phone generally takes much longer than a couple minutes to boot up after doing a full wipe, because the dalvik cache has to be rebuilt. Guarantee that if you had just left the phone alone the first time it was stuck on the Samsung screen, it would've booted just fine.
There are many guides that should help if you run into problems. First odin back to stock update to get new modem (doesn't have to be the newest but might a well), use the pit as well. Second odin cwm. Then flash kern and rom with a voodoo conversion if desired.
At first don't restore any backups. Don't use any themes. Or make any other changes until you see how out runs. Also don't play with the under volting until you've used it a while.
After running it awhile "stock" a it were then start making your changes one by one. This way at least you will know what its causing the trouble.
That happened to me as well when flashed com rom. I took 3 batt pulls before I just let it go to find it was working all along just took its sweet time on first boot. Was not voodoo here. I also agree with your charger problem, but for me its reversed, only happens on the car charger. And I hate to say it but no froyo rom, stock or otherwise, plays nice with my fascinate. I get all kinds of weird bugs. And battery life got worse. Since I have come to the realization that no fascinate aosp or cm rom will ever have bluetooth headset support, I finally threw in the towel and spent an hour on the phone with verizon to get an upgrade. Sad but after all this time it was time to give up.

Wiping Davlik causes unusually long boot times on Froyo ROMs on the Fascinate. If you just wait it out (if it's more than 15 minutes, though, something's wrong) you should be golden. By the way, PBJ 5/23 is literally a non-starter, so I would suggest nemesis2all's OTB kernel until imnuts updates.
Another Fascinating post by my XDA app...
Thanks for all the help and advice everyone. After trying five different roms, I finally found one that works for me. Blackhole. I set it up just like the others, the difference being that Titanium and everything else works. Still have to test battery life, but just having all my apps and no force closes or boot loops is enough for now...

Blackhole 4.4? Or an earlier version? I miss SonOfSkywalker's work since he added the Thunderbolt to his arsenal (he also devs for the Vibrant)
Another Fascinating post by my XDA app...
4.4. Haven't had any issues with it so far. Battery life is probably not the best so far it seems, however I don't even care at this stage as long as everything works. I also have not run it down and reset the battery or played with many settings yet so not ready to say it is the rom or anything of the sort. Everyone has their deal breakers with their phone, and not having Titanium work is one of my biggest things. I love that app. I didn't donate for it to not use it, you know? I'm a themer, and I have a lot of themed apps saved with it that makes the Market pretty much useless to reinstall stuff for me. Plus it is an easy way to uninstall system apps without screwing anything else up.

[Q] Nook acting funny

My nook has been giving me some problems lately. The Market refuses to recognize my user name and password. And this week it has started to lock up and crash a lot.
I'm thinking I just want to reinstall CM7 (or is there something better now?)
My question is do I need to wipe the nook first and then re-root it? If I do wipe it do I need to install the stock nook OS before re-rooting or can I just install CM7 overtop of everything and do it that way? I've done that in the past and that may be part of my problem. I'm not concerned with backing up my data or apps. I can just reinstall them. I don't have a lot on it other than comics.
Thank you.
Boot into recovery, mounts and storage, format cache, format data, format system, then flash your CM7 package, gapps, and whatever else you want as you normally would. I wouldn't think going back to the stock ROM, then back to CM7 would accomplish anything more than just re-installing CM7 would. Also, if you were doing any kind of overclocking don't do it after the clean install until you are satisfied that the performance has stabilized. If do a clean install of CM7 with no overclocking and you continue experience lock ups, you may be looking at a hardware problem.
Awesome. Thank you.
I have been having issues with some apps freezing up or acting on their own. Sometimes shutting screen off then turning back on works, other times cleaning screen works, but doesn't seem to cure the issues. Anyone experience this? Some games include cordy and puffle launch.

[Q] Team EOS Help needed with latest nightlies

Hi Guys,
I am not sure if I am posting in the right place, but I could use some assistance on the Team EOS nightlies. They won't let me post in the DEV section yet, becuase I am mostly reader, not a poster. Anyway....
I've been running the EOS roms for a while, but I can't seem to run any nightly past 74. 74 runs great, when I tried to update to 75 (rom/gapps/wipe cache) it won't get past the "DUAL CORE" logo. I thought I bricked my xoom, but I am able to boot to recovery, reflash 74 (gapps/wipe) and it boot with no issue. I did a full wipe, and tried again with 76 but no joy (77 wasn't out at the time). I thought it was a problem with n75 and n76. I flashed back to n14 and it works fine, and I can upgrade back to n74. Tonight I tried to update again to n77, but still no dice. I let it sit for 15 minutes at the "Dual Core" logo, and all I noticed is that is got warm, but still no boot.
Any thoughts? All advise is welcome!
BTW, this is for a Stingray 4g xoom
And while I have your attention, I love the work you guys do, and this community, it really makes Android something special!
Weird. Try going into fastboot and do a full wipe of userdata, cache, and system. Then install. If need be, do a backup. This will totally wipe your device.
Wipe cache, wipe dalvik, flash ROM, flash GAPPS, fix permissions. Do it in that order and you should be fine.
Also make sure your using the latest GAPPS. It should be dated 2012-03-17.
Good Luck.
Still not working right, very frustrated, but I have new information

Thanks to both of you. I did try this. What I have discovered so far is that some of the flashing fun I have been doing with my may have caused so minor issues with my external SD Card. I backed up the internal to it, and pulled it. I went through the process of nuking the xoom entirely. I.E. Wiped Cache, dalvik, full wipe, factory reset, reset permission, and deleted everything off the internal SD (wasn't in this order, but it all got done) I was able to flash N77, without GAPPS fine. It seemed to run faster with nothing else installed. Rebooted a few times, no problem. I was stoked. I flashed gapps, 03-17 version (the latest). factory reset again so that it was fresh and wiped the cache (just in case). It booted again no problems, ran me through initial config, and then began downloading my apps back. It seemed to run much faster than it ever did before.
Then I rebooted it, without doing any titanium backup restores, just fresh tablet, N77 with my 90 or so apps freshly installed from the market, and it froze again at the "Dual Core" boot screen. I waited hoping for some delayed joy, but none came.
So I went back through the process once again, factory reset, N77 install, wipe cache, install GAPPs. Booted.....initial config, auto downloaded 90 apps from market, reboot......dead.
So then I just flashed N74 again, wiped cache, install GAPPS, initial config, app download.....reboot.......works fine.
<general frustration directed at tablet, not anyone here/>
What gives???? I can't tell what the difference in internal apps in the ROM are that could be conflicting with the ones installed from the market.
Why the hell is N74 working and N77 not, when the apps in both ROMs look the same?
Why does N77 work great when the apps aren't restored?????
Why don't I make a million dollars?????
Why aren't I emperor of the universe???????????????
</general frustration directed at tablet, not anyone here>
Thanks much for all your help!
alright.... i have 2 suggestions these may not work and the second one is a pain in the butt to do but it got me out of a jam way back when i lost my softkeys no matter what i flashed
firstly.. in the sequence of your flashing throw in the 'format /system' see if that has any effect it is 'possible' the system is not being flashed correctly or it could be possible that it is getting corrupted and causing the bootloops (i always format system when full wiping)
second... and this is a pain.. but you can always try flashing back to STOCK... there could be other factors that aren't being flashed or fixed correctly causing ya problems... you can then go through the process and flash directly to the latest build... as i noted earlier this fixed a problem that nothing else could for me and has helped others but really this is a last last resort as it takes alot of time and screwing around
lastly... i have no idea sorry these are all i can input.. if possible can always try and use logcat while booting to see what is causing the crash if im not mistaken and upload a log and one of the devs may be able to have a look at it...
I Would stop dinking around with n77 and go to n90 I had the same issues around those nightly numbers, so I went all the way back to stock... (honeycomb) didn't fix it but I redid the whole install on a higher number and it seems to work itself out..... long story short try another maybe the 1.0 stable by them.

Thanks much for this. I had already attempted the formatting of everything except the SD card before.....but for sh*ts and giggles I tried it one more time. unfortunately that didn't work.
Using the second option, of reverting stock, I went through sleeplessnija's tutorial on reverting. It really didn't seem that bad, taking me longer to setup my work machine than it did to send the fastboot commands. I was able to get it to boot stock (of course I didn't re-lock it) just fine, and it was quick....so it seems like my hardware is fine.
I used fastboot to put the replacement tiamat recovery, and formatted everything in the mounts menu again. I also mounted my SD card as USB storage and used the full format for it under windows. Then i copied N77 and GAPPS back to it, and re-installed them. It got to the second boot logo (first was the shaking team eos, the second is the square thing with rounded corners that moves). It hung for about 10 minutes, and I shut it off. annoyed.
So I went back into recovery, mounted my SD for USB access from my desktop, and copied the unofficial (which I think is now official) CM9 distro from Team Rogue (Steady's Rom I believe?). I formatted everything, and wiped everything (except the SD) again, and installed CM9 and gapps. Booted fine. Configured account, downloaded 90 apps, rebooted, no problems. Played with it for a while, rebooted....no problems.
I like that my xoom is back up and running......however it seemed that Steadies rom is just a little less fully featured than Team EOS. THAT IS NOT A KNOCK AGAINST TEAM ROGUE OR CM9.....my Xoom is working again (so far) thanks to him (them), and I run CM9 on my AT&T GSII. I just really like Team EOS on my Xoom, and have been with them since the beginning. I would love to know why my xoom suddenly hates the latest nightlies (everything since 74).
Edit: I forgot to ask, Joshndroid.....you mentioned running logcat to see what going on. If it can't boot past the dual core logo or the second boot logo from Team EOS....how do I get the logs? I am not familiar with android's logging.....even though I am a flash-a-holic. I am just thinking that if this is happening to me, maybe I can help out the devs (and myself, and maybe someone else) with the log output.
Edit 2: And Josh.....I forgot to tell you .....good call on the revert to stock answer. I didn't think about that before and thought I was screwed!
Thanks!!

Need help with CWM boot issue

Hey guys. I'm trying to figure out what's going wrong with my Transformer. I'm not experienced with Android development/ROM's so please bare with me.
Rooted my first Android device about a month ago. Made a stupid mistake placing the ROM I was planning to use on the external SD card & didn't backup the install I wiped. Recovered with an official Asus ROM & after about two hours fiddling around I managed to root & load my first ROM (Revolver, whoot!). Very pleased with myself!
Have been using the Revolver ROM for a month without any problems. No deep sleep etc, everything worked perfectly. Using the latest version of Clockworkmod, also no issues so far. Strange thing is that since last monday everytime I (re)boot the device it loads CWM instead of the Android OS. I can get back into Android bij holding volume down during boot & choose to cold boot. Not a big issue but very annoying & can't seem to find the fix.
Searched Google & XDA for a solution. Updated Revolver to 1.3.1 beta, also found the repack by Koush for CWM. Tried fixing permissions, clearing cache, clearing dalvik, wiping & starting over, etc. Everything I tried so far does not fix the CWM-loop I seem to be stuck in.
Would really appreciate some help, I'm probably looking in the wrong direction here. Thanks in advance.
Found something
Finally got out of the CWM loop, found a solution here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1622814&page=2
Strange thing is that after I flashed it with the fix CWM changed to the touch mod I recently installed but never seemed to work. If I understand correctly the fix only deleted the first few lines in the config where the boot in recovery flag should be.
Afterwards I factory wiped the unit & flashed it with a clean ROM. Currently re-installing my apps. I do not have a good feeling on this, tablet seems sluggish last couple of days & I can hear a soft click when the unit reboots. Same sort of click a laptop hdd would make.
Think it's dying on me...
