[Q] Sudden reboot and lost app data?

I was running cm-10.1-20130222-NIGHTLY and Faux's new 7b6 beta kernel. I had just overclocked to 1.8ghz and had run some benchmarks when I decided to get Geekbench and try that too. It installed fine and I clicked to open the app when the entire system froze and it rebooted. I then got stuck on the boot screen so I though i must have over clocked it to hard so I wiped cache, reflashed cm-10.1-20130222-NIGHTLY and the stable faux v6 kernel.
Once I got in, the wallpaper had reset, when I tried to open any paid app it insisted that "App not installed"( when I could see the package in the /apps-asec folder), i couldn't re install the missing paid apps (error -24) and some free apps had its data wiped. I though it might be permissions so I rebooted to recovery(which was unusually laggy) and fixed permissions, which didn't help.
This is the strangest occurrence I have ever had on my Nexus 4. The system seems to work fine, besides the above problems and a simple wipe and flash should fix those problem. I understand the freeze was probably caused an unstable overclock but why did I loose my data and Android cant find my paid apps? I just fear i might have damaged the flash storage somehow and am mad I lost some semi-important data. Does anyone else know what just happened?

AW: [Q] Sudden reboot and lost app data?
This has also happened to me a minute ago. Using Rootbox 3.7.1 as ROM and Fauxkernel 7b6. A lot of data is suddenly gone, when flashing gapps I can't use my phone at all anymore because the setup keeps crashing and yeah. I tried wiping cache etc but without success. Gonna do a factory reset now..

[Q] Configurator stopped

The Message "Config stopped" keeps appearing on my Nexus 7 screen and it jumps into repeated rebooting.
Why is this so? can anyone out there help me? I'm new to this portal and a complete novice on the ins and outs of the nexus 7.

Are you using a custom ROM? If so, do a full factory reset and wipe the caches. Then install the latest version of the ROM (make sure it is not a known bug of the ROM too). Don't restore your apps via an app backup thing. If you must, do them one at a time so you can identify if one of the apps is causing the problem.
If you arent on a custom ROM, consider uninstalling all apps that are risky, then reinstall one at a time.
Next wipe the data of any system apps that could cause this problem.
If this doesn't work, do a factory reset. You may need to return to stock using adb to wipe the dalvik and cache (I don't know if factory reset doesn't this anyway).
I hope this helps

Thanks, I will try the latter, as I'm not rooted. Will keep you posted.

[Q] App downloads from Google Play Store freeze/don't start downloading

Hi there!
I'm having big issus the last three days with downloads from the Google Play Store on my i9505.
I was using Jamals Google Edition ROM v3, everything was fine. Then, just like before I did a wipe data/factory reset using PhilZ advanced CWM and installed v5. This was the first time I faced problems in the Google Play Store.
Apps just downloaded some kilobytes and then froze but some apps downloaded properly. Some other downloaded, froze, downloaded again and showed an error message when finished.
With a little bit of patience and some tries I could download all the apps that I needed (cancel and start the download again).
Today I updated to v6 of Jamals Google Edition ROM and the problems were still the same. I tried to clear the data and cache from Google Play Store app and restart the device but nothing fixed the problem.
So I thought maybe a complete reset the Samsungs original software could do the job. So I flashed through Odin an original ROM I have on my computer (I9505XXUBMF8_I9505OXABMF8_I9505XXUBMF8_HOME.tar).
Now problems got even bigger... I'm not able to download ANY update/app from the store. It always sais "Starting download..." and nothing happens. I also tried to clear the data/cache from Play Store app, too. Now I have no idea how to go on with this problem because I couldn't find this case on the web/other possibilities to fix the problem.
Any idea?

This happens on my I9500 also, which solved it by wiping the whole thing and started over..

Thanks for your quick respond. But what do you concretely understand by wiping "the whole thing"? I thought reinstalling a stock ROM from Samsung is most you can do to come as close as possible to a delivery status.
*edit: Now after the fresh installation of the latest stock ROM from Samsung I also did a hard reset. Downloads do start again but none of them is getting finished. Mostly they freeze at 80% progress or so.

I usually get this problem when I have too many apps in queue for download. I usually cancel most of them and let it update 2-3 at a time and eventually end up getting all of them installed. This message as the only way I could get them all done.

Jeah I thought about this as well but I can't even download one single application.

Dalvik Cache Wipe triggers Starting apps dialog box every boot

I have got this issue since I wiped the dalvik cache on Android 4.2.2 to fix a Play Store issue which I should of deleted that dalvik cache file with Titanium Backup or use Lucky Patcher to remove that left over file in /data/app/ but also wiping the cache somehow broke the APN API not allowing me to add the wiped APNs and such.
Since then I had to reflash EVERYTHING using the Nexus Stock Image flasher from Google Developers, since then I had no issues until a recent Android 4.3 update which caused the dalvik cache issue to arise since it wiped the dalvik cache.
I also do not have root because of the update but the su binary and SuperSU is still there so I cannot fix the issues manually.
When I come back on holiday I will root the device to see if I can fix the issue
but if that does not help then I can use the root to backup ALL the user apps, backup ALL the internal SD contents and reflash also rooting it.
Because I paid for the TB licence I can just restore my stuff in a touch of a "button".
I have removed apps which I don't use and the ones which I suspect is causing the issue but that does not help.
It seems that wiping the cache partition now does not break anything.
The dialog box says in the title "Android is upgrading..." and it says below "Starting apps..." and then gets off in a second.
I have seen forums of people having this strange issue but there are no replies.
I am getting back from holiday on the 31/8/13.
I really want this haunting issue to stop so please help so others can fix this issue without going though annoyance caused by this issue.

that android is upgrading dialog box is the dalvik getting rebuilt, it get rebuilt after you wipe it, it is SUPPOSED to happen when you wipe your dalvik. it isnt an issue. if not, you wouldnt have a bootable or usable phone. the real issue here is you using lucky patcher. we all know what it is used for, and is disrespectable to the developers that hang out on xda.

I only use Lucky Patcher for important stuff and not really for what you think so that is NOT the issue what so ever and misleading to this thread and plus, other people use it.
I mean that in EVERY boot it says that it is starting apps, nothing to do with building at all.

Late reply, but Lucky Patcher did this to my phone just now and I don't know what to do, other than reflash. Which sucks because I spent all night modding out my phone and was stupid enough to not to a nandoid backup.
Edit: The first boot it upgraded everything then everything force closed, 2nd boot everything upgraded, but seems to be working fine. Woo. Was scared for a moment.

Well you was LUCKY (pun alert!).
Anyway it seems that the stock rom was always the issue, even reflashing does not fix this issue when you wipe the dalvik cache.
I am on ParanoidAndroid 3.98 at the moment and I am not getting any issues just by wiping the dalvik cache and/or the cache partition.

I have found fix for this error, it is mainly due to odex files which are created by lucky patcher so deleting these files using lucky patcher itself will surely remove this error with 50 percent success rate. Here's the fix; open lucky patcher, there in lower left section you can see Toolbox, click that Toolbox then select 4th last option i.e Remove all odex files.Thats it android will reboot on itself and vola no android is upgrading. .
Check out attached image for help.

[Q] Please Help: System UIDs Inconsistent + Error code "-24" - nothing works..

[Q] Please Help: System UIDs Inconsistent + Error code "-24" - nothing works..
Hallo all! I really HOPE someone might help me with two really annoying issues:
I recently bought a Samsung Galaxy S4 Black-Edition (Modelnumber: GT-I9505). From day one I rooted the phone
(CF-Auto-Root-jflte-jfltexx-gti9505.tar.md5)
but still use the samsung stock Rom. My Android version is 4.4.2 and I had the genuine firmware-version I9505XXUGNG8 from the Samsung homepage (sammobile).
.. Since the update from the firmware-version I9505XXUGNF1 everything has been working perfectly for three weeks, but yesterday when I restarted my phone suddendly the error massage "System UIDs Inconsistent... [...] need to wipe [...]" appeared before I was asked to type in my PIN. I Ignored the message and started my phone as usual, but suddenly my nova prime launcher lost some of its homescreen shortcuts and all of the widgets. Note that this "System UIDs Inconsistent"-Message appears each time I restart the device.
.. After manually restoring the shortcuts and widgets on my homescreens I noticed that power amp was missing. Ever since I was trying to reinstall it from the google Playstore I get the error message "Unknown Error code during application install: "-24" ", so I'm not able to get that app again (I got the premium version - can't download/install the unlocking-key file either).
I got the premium version of titanium Backup installed and did a complete backup of all user and systemapps (app + data) a month ago , but I simply can not find the power-amp entry in my backup!! Does anyone know what filename to look for in the titanium backup-file in order to restore the poweramp app??
Those two error messages ("System UIDs Inconsistent" - "Unknown Error code during application install: "-24"") are really driving me crazy, so does anyone have an idea what could be the cause for those issues and how to fix them? Is there anyone sharing the same problem? What could I try to solve that problem?
I'm VERY thankful for any sort of help!

No one sharing the same propblem??
A small update:
I deleted the Cache and all Data from the Google-Playstore App and I deactivated it.. After I reactivated the Playstore app the error-message after rebooting dissappeared ( "System UIDs Inconsistent... [...] need to wipe [...]" )! .. So one problem is remaining!
Still cannot install the poweramp app! Still get the error-message "Unknown Error code during application install: "-24" ", although the app is NOT installed on my device. I removed every 'com.maxmpz'-entries.. Note that I did a Titanium-Backup BEFORE the problem occured for the first time, but I am not able to restore the app using Titanium.. Titanium-Backup starts to restore poweramp bu nothing happenes (Process-Bar always stays on 0%).
.. So PLEASE, can anyone help me?? I want my poweramp back!

Since you've rooted your phone im guessing you have also installed twrp or cwm. Your best bet would be to make a backup of your rom, apps, texts etc, wipe your cache and dalvic cache then reboot to see if this solves your issue. Otherwise preform a factory reset and reboot to see if the problem persists.

Probably the cleanest solution HERE
