Seems without adding anything to my A7, in the past day it is literally non stop FC'ing on the above process. I hit Force Close and it keeps coming back (not immediately, more like randomly without 10-25 seconds). Only thing I've did extra n the tablet lately is play Angry Birds. Should I try to clear it's DB even though I haven't loaded it today? Also would like to state that I have rebooted and even shut down the tablet, and it still does it.
what have you done to it? stock firmware update? DexterMod? Stock fresh out of the box?

Guess in my first version of this thread, before I edited it, I had that information (morning brain fart).
DexterMod v1.3 + BT Fix
Worked fine yesterday morning then it started FCing out of the blue. I've begun (even though none of the apps were installed immediately prior to the FCs) uninstalling widgets that I installed. Next is to start on programs (I did however uninstall Button Savior as I know it loads on startup so I was thinking that was causing it even though it had been on the device for a couple days running flawlessly).
Got tired of messing with it. Did a Cache Partition Wipe and Device Wipe and it's back to normal DexterMod v1.3. This seems to have resolved the issue so it must have been something with one of the databases on the applications that I had installed. Will see once I reload all my apps.
Hello,
This is driving me kind of nuts at the moment. My phone freezes a lot when I connect data or WiFi. If I turn these off, it rarely freezes.
OK, first things first.
I own a Galaxy Note 2 international SIM-free (N7100) with the latest version of CWM recovery. I'm running the 11/28 nightly, coming from CM.
Before installing, I did the usual procedure (wipe cache/data, etc) through CWM. Then I rooted with SuperSU. Then PA Gapps, since it's compatible with 4.4.
I tweaked every imaginable setting I could find in Settings, Dev Options, Android Tuner app, still no go.
Since I mostly use Gapps, Facebook and WhatsApp while I'm online, I'm starting to think one of these apps is causing the freeze.
This morning I just re-flashed 1128 nightly and I'll play around in stock browser to see if it freezes.
Has anyone experienced anything similar? Can you guys suggest other tweaks I could try?
I'm using stock x play (5.1.1) not rooted!
I have this problem on my old phone as well.
When I install app updates from play store they revert back to previous versions when I restart my phone ! Even updates that are installed a week ago, I'm sure I using the new version for a week, and then I power donw the phone from the menu and power back on - I receive notification that there are updates for some apps (lots of them) and I need to reinstall them. This does not happen every time I restart the phone, just some times.
How can I sort this out. I dont want to update several times same app with same update !
First of all, I know you just can't update modified stock ROMs with OTA updates, it's just that Huawei Updater keeps downloading the OTA Update and prompts me to install it every other time I awake my phone. Just wanted to know if there's any way to stop it from trying to update the phone, maybe killing a service or something. Also, I believe this constant waking is swallowing my battery, since Android OS is on top.
Potentially dangerous but you can Find the app and freeze it with titanium, or even uninstall it

Go to settings,updates, in options there you have two things to slide them off. Do it. Then close that notification. Thats all
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
