So when I launch the Facebook app, it opens up, tries to update content, then closes. I looked and cant find any solutions so far.
Currently I am on 4.3 rooted.
Same problem was occurring when i was SmoothRom 5.2. I figured reverting the image to stock would fix it, but that has not been the case.
I've uninstalled and re-installed several times. I went to recovery and ran Fix Permissions. Problem still persist.
Does anybody have any ideas on what I can do to fix it? Thanks in advance.
I was able to get the app working again. I ended up flashing 4.3 a few times, but it finally working.
Hi all,
I'm new to this forum and tried to find the answer before posting this but couldn't find the answer.
The problem is that my phone keeps restarting on custom roms.
It happens on various custom roms i tried cm12.1 and a couple of others. When i first install the custom rom it all seems fine. Even after a couple of restarts it all works okay untill the moment that i install all my apps that i use.
After a number of installed apps the launcher app trebuchet keeps crashing and after that my phone is in an endless boot loop.
Does anyone else know of this problem or have a solution to this weird problem?
Ps. When i revert back to an twrp backup of my old 4.4.2 system all is fine and no bootloops anymore.
I also tried installing nova launcher instead of trebuchet because i tought it was trebuchet related but that didn't work. (I uninstalled trebuchet completely).
Please let me know if you need more info from the phone.
Thanks
Dennis

Did you consider that one of the apps you install is causing the problem?
Try installing apps one by one, and be aware that some apps designed to work in Android KitKat or less may not work on Android 5 or higher.
And some apps have multiple versions for each android version, so it's better to install your apps by downloading them from the play store.
Hi,
A few days ago I experienced a boot loop on my Nexus 10 with Lineage OS 13, build 20170909.
I broke it down to a recent update of Nova Launcher - going back to an older version and preventing Google Play automatic updates fixed it for me.
There are a number of reports of the same symptom pointing to Nova Google Companion, TeslaUnread, IFTTT, and Action Launcher.
I don't think this is an issue in those apps, but rather caused in the OS - an App should not be able to bring down the OS to a reboot (and even worse, due to the automatic restart of the launcher, causing a reboot loop).
any ideas of a fix in the OS? something else to prevent this from happening again?
Regards

I confirm the same. Constant bootloop with Nova Launcher
I am also experiencing this on an older version of CM13. Clearing cache does not work. Any quick fix possible via recovery?

I had the same problem with a Galaxy S3 running OctOS (CM13 based Android 6.0.1). The Nova Launcher update caused my phone to crash and reboot as soon as it was unlocked.
I was able to disable Nova in recovery (TWRP) using the built-in TWRP file manager. navigate to /data/app/com.teslacoilsw.launcher/ and delete base.apk. This will keep Nova from loading on startup but will not delete your data. My phone worked fine after that, albeit without Nova.
Thanks a lot, removing base.apk stopped the reboot loop.
My device has just started a bootloop too, but I don't even have Nova installed on it (though I do on my phone), just the stock launcher in CM / LineageOS.
I reset it to factory defaults and then it boots, but when it restores my old apps it starts looping again, so one of them is the cause. I didn't learn anything from the log via adb.
Any ideas?
I discovered it was one of my apps causing this. I removed it and it boots ok. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=au.com.realestate.app&hl=en

Thanks for the hint, it was a real estate app from germany (immoscout24) which caused the problem at my device. Deleted the base.apk and everything works fine again.
Happening to me now, ffs im on the latest nightly and thats not fixed it.

Mine just started boot looping yesterday, but I hadn't installed any new apps in a while, and I have automatic app updating turned off (I also don't have any real estate apps installed, German or otherwise). Any hints on how to track down the culprit? Is there a boot log to look at?
Thanks!
Folks, there is a defect open in the official lineage bug tracking system. please add your comments there - maybe this needs some more support to get looked at:
https://jira.lineageos.org/browse/BUGBASH-1075
Same here. Started happening after it updated my apps yesterday. Removed nova launcher and all other Teslacoil software, problem remains. Can only start the tablet in Safe mode.
Seeing this on my device as well, except I am not able to remove the base.apk file because the app I installed somehow corrupted my bootloader such that I cannot get into recovery mode.
The culprit app? LinkedIn. Automatic app updates were turned off, and just before the bootloop started, the last thing I did was install that app. It finished, it rebooted, and hasn't stopped rebooting since.
When I put it into bootloader mode, it stops the continual rebooting and displays the "open panel" robot and "Downloading... do not turn off target". From there, all I can do is press power to start, then it goes back into rebooting. There is no way to get into recovery mode from there.
Also, attempting to keystroke into recovery mode just restarted the lineos infinite reboot.
Can't get into recovery, can't get the bootloader out of "Downloading" mode, and lineos continually reboots... Any wise sage souls have any ideas on this one? It looks like my device is bricked
It got me too - I don't have Nova Launcher installed. A few weeks ago the device started bootlooping with a build I had installed since september. I updated to one of the latest builds and had the same issue again. At the moment i got it working most of the time, but when i start certain apps it just reboots.
Seems to be independent to build version and can occur with different apps (at least thats what I've read here...).
Is this a Lineage Os 13 only thing or can I throw the device away now?
Greetings
I started having this issue this week as well. Oddly enough, I was still on CM12.1. In the middle of watching Plex and it rebooted, and has been boot-looping since. I did a factory wipe and while installing apps, it started looping again. I then installed the latest nightly of LOS13.1 and again, once it got part-way installing apps, it started boot-looping again. So this is not just a LineageOS thing, it seems to be an app update (I do have auto-update turned on).
I´m having the same problem without ever have the Nove Launcher installed. The bootloop started on my device several weeks ago. I tried to fix it by wipe partly or total and reinstall the latest nightly of los13 (20171126) and opengapps micro 27.11.2017 (and everything else).
As soon as I reinstall my apps, los goes back to bootloop. Sometimes, when I manually install only few apps, the system seems stable, until die next updates come by the play store.
So now I went back to stock rom until I´m getting aware of the problem beeing solved.
workaround, maybe
I wouldn'n call it a bootloop but rather a startloop
Anyhow, in my case I was able to break the loop by entering android's safe mode by simultaneously pressing vol up and down keys during startup. In safe mode, I was able to delete offending apps. After reboot, system is running again. Apps identified so far to make lineageos unhappy: open camera, yalp store, YouTube(!).., oruxmaps.
Removing offending apps works
Thank you!
I did the same with your advice... removed some apps and it works. I went back to September ROM, then update to Nov ASB ROM and it works fine.
ShevT is on it, here https://jira.lineageos.org/browse/BUGBASH-1052
and here: https://review.lineageos.org/#/c/197386/
Hope it gets fixed and merged soon... as this has been a pain the neck for a while, possibly related to a similar problem earlier this year.

I'm running CM13 and I have the same problem. I am not tech savvy with installing ROMs but managed to get to TWRP and did a reset to factory. Got part way thru optimising apps and the problem came back. I could only turn the tablet off via TWRP!
I don't mind going back to stock rom but not sure how to do it..best I look on here and start to educate myself..I'm 73yo so might not get finished before my time is up
Hey guys, so my phone has since day one run into an issue where whenever I go to update certain apps, my phone instantly reboots after downloading but before installing. Im on Nougat with Batstock V1.2.0 kernal and I am using Magisk v14.0. I have been googling around and all I have found is reference to booting into safe mode and uninstalling. One of the most prominent apps to give me trouble updating is chrome and I can only roll back the updates with that app. Even still the problem continues. I have factory reset a handful of times but whatever is causing the issue seems to persist from reset to reset.
As always I really appreciate the help!
Hello!
I tried to update my phone (SM-G975U) via Odin from Android 9 to Android 12, got the firmware from SamFw.com. Everything went fine until the phone rebooted, after unlocking the phone gets stuck on 'phone is starting'. I CAN access the Set Up Menu, Uninstall apps, move some settings here and there, connect to Wifi/Bluetooth, receive calls, install apps using ADB. Also, theres a notification all the time that reads 'Phone restarted Unlock your phone to get app notifications', I'm assuming that the phone thinks it is not unlocked and that's why it doesn't fully boot up.
Some things that I've already tried:
Intalling another Launcher (Pixel Launcher)
Reinstalling the firmware (ver G975USQU6IVC7) / Trying with different CSC with no results
Wiping Cache in Recovery Mode
Deleting/Adding Fingerprints
Changing from Lock Pattern to NIP to Password
I don't really want to do the full wipe, I would like to keep my data or be able to export the photos (Device not Recognized by Smart Switch also)
Is there anything else I can do?, has anyone been through the same issue?
Is your phone rooted?

No, it's not rooted
Hi !
@DannOsnaya have you found a solution to the phone problem other than restoring to factory settings?
I have the same problem at the moment, almost identical to what you experienced.
If anyone has some advice on how to fix this problem, please share your advice.
My phone is not rooted.

My phone is still like that, I tried updating to the newest security patch but didn't work either, haven't lost hope in avoiding factory reset tho
Hi. Did u find any solution to it. Am facing the same issue. Although I tried to factory reset but doesn't work.

Any way to factory reset. I tried every possible way following YouTube but nothing works. It's just stuck. I've a backup of my data so not worried.
No, I still have the same issue.
Have you tried to install a launcher?

Nothing works. Now decided to show it to anyone. I guess the mobile shops have an option to erase everything. I don't understand how did it happen because it's usually with my toddler, he might have done something.

I followed a video and wiped out. Finally successful. I wasn't worried about data as Google has a backup.
I followed this method and finally it's factory reset.
