Hi guys goodnight,
I need some help on this, I did a nandroid image backup using CWM recovery and I backed it up on my external card before I flashed a rom. I flash cm11 rom on my s4 and now want to go back to stock, so I reboot into Cwm recovery and went to restore backup. After the restore had finish I reboot the phone and it came on without no problems but when I unlock the phone a pop-up keep coming up every 5 seconds saying ........ "unfortunately.the.com.google.process.gapps.has stop working". Please I need some help I can't do nothing on my phone because of these popups
Do I need to wipe anything first before I restore?

First just flash newer gapps (search on google to get a download link)
If that doesn't work then wipe and restore

Gapps are google applications. So flashing the latest version of gapps will make sure that all the google applications are fine.
I consider data precious so wipe and reset is the last option I prefer as making and restoring backup takes hell lot of time

If you're switching from something other than Omni - you need to factory reset.
If you're updating from an older Omni build with gapps installed - flash Omni and you don't need to do anything else. gapps will automatically be backed up
i updated it n everything's fine... but one problem, the playstore app is missing so I downloaded it n installed but it KEOS force closing n says google services has stopped

I9100 has a small system partition so you need to use "mini" gapps

Some apps break, and because some things break with ART, any bug reports you file in Omni's bugtracker (JIRA) will be closed as invalid. (well, currently closed as RTFM, we need to add an "invalid" category.)

If it doesn't work, then it probably is a hardware problem and you will need to go to a service center in that case.
Flash the package from recovery.
Make a backup first.

It is easy to tear down the galaxy s4 camera. So you can try to use a new camera or a camera from others' S4 to test whether the hardware has problem or not.

He is not even rooting his phone and you expect him to tear open up his phone? -_-
Frankly speaking, I will NOT recommended him to do it himself as he has no experience of it and will most definitely destroy his phone in the process.

So it may be a hardware problem.
I did a nandroid backup after I just rooted my phone. So now I am running a custom rom and I decided to go back to stock android. So I flash the nandriod backup and it rebooted with no problems. But when I unlock the fone it said unfortunately Gapps have stop working and these pop-ups are coming up like every 2 seconds. So I just decided to wipe and factory reset my phone. So I did when it was finish I went through the process of setting up my phone and when I download Instagram the app keep crashing like I would be on it for like 2 mins and a pop-up would come up saying unfortunately Instagram has stop working. It even says it when I tried to post a picture. And when I download whatsapp also and i try to change my profile picture it keeps crashing.
I think it's something with the play store or something. Please help

What version of TWRP do you use? It sounds like your EFS could potentially be FUBAR'd........TWRP has the option to back up the EFS and if you have a TWRP backup it should have the EFS backup in it...check your backups to see if you have this. Give this a shot, it should fix the issue!!
If not, as he's recommending for the 'hard reset' it's under wipe and then advanced........just make sure that you have EVERYTHING backed up on a computer as this will erase all the data on your phone.
Try this:
Go to /efs/FactoryApp/
Open a file called factory mode.
It will probably say OFF. Edit to ON, save and reboot.
None of my back ups have EFS I forgot to click box it.

You don't have any efs folder in your phone now?
Go back to recovery and mount efs, then use twrp's built in file manager and browse to efs and see if it's empty. I don't think it is.
