[Q] Issue with com.android.phone on CM11.

Hello there, I am looking for help solving an issue on CyanogenMod 11. My original goal was to install Kali Linux on my Galaxy S4 using Linux Deploy. I tried many different methods to root, but the one that ended up working was using Odin3 to flash a kernel, then using towelroot to root the device. After I had rooted, I tried to install Kali, but I found that SELinux was enforced, so I couldn't install it. I found out that CyanogenMod had it set to permissive, so I used Safestrap 3.73 to wipe the phone and install.
Every single time CM opens, I only get "Unfortunately, The process com.android.phone has stopped". I am able to select thing on CM in the brief time span before another error pops up. I have tried using the latest jflte nightly and snapshot, jflteatt nightly and snapshot, and gapps for 4.4.3, 4.4.4, and 5.0. The only ones that show Cyanogen are the jflte.
I am willing to do anything that will allow the phone to work again, preferably with CyanogenMod. All of my data is backed up, so anything will work. Thank you for any help!

Galaxy S4 i9505- Not Rooting Through Any Apps

S4 i9505 not rooting through any apps
Hi, I recently flashed cm12.1 on my S4 i9505 and its working fine.
I need a working GApps package, I tried flashing 2 PA GApps(mini and micro), updated version which is TK GApps(mini), and also cleared calvik cache before and after flashing them as some forums suggested, but none of them worked and all Google apps keep crashing as soon as I boot in CM even the keyboard.
The 2nd issue: My phone is not rooted anymore and I tried a couple of rooting android and windows apps but none seem to root my phone, fails everytime. The errors which I faced are below.
Framaroot: "Your device seems not vulnerable to exploit included in Framaroot"
iRoot (android): "GT- i9505 No Root Permission"
iRoot (windows): "Device is connecting
eRoot (windows): Stuff written in chinese and no root button available as mentioned in different forums"
KingoRoot: "Root Strategy unavailable, just try it"
TowelRoot: Stuck on make it ra1n and after a while "towelroot stopped responding"
Root Checker: "Root checker has stopped working"
3rd Issue: I tried installing playstore apk till I get my GApps working, but it crashes everytime I open it, any solutions?
Thanks

1. Gapps: http://opengapps.org/
2. You cannot loose root acces on CM. It's impossible. You just need to activate it in developer settings and after that flash Supersu (optional). All the apps etc you tried is completely obsolete.
3. See post number 1.

Yes.
I would suggest performing a full wipe then flash CM and then the Gapps.
or you can try to just flash Supersu and your root will probably be back.

I tried your suggestion, did a full wipe and flashed CM successfully through TWRP, the flashed GApps successfully, and SuperSU also, but just before rebbot, TWRP asked for "fix root" and when i swiped for yes, the reboot brought me back to Samsung logo and never rebooted CM... waited for about 15 mins before pulling the battery out...
I tried to flash CM and a stock firmware through odin then and now it says "Firmware upgrade failed, try KIES...... " odin fails to flash anything and gives error "No PIT Partition", even if I try to flash PIT files (tries 4 different files for i9505), all failed....
now I can only access download mode and lost TWRP too...
help please!

Install a stock ROM through Download Mode. This will get you back to a working state. From there get TWRP and then install CM12.1. And this time around, follow instructions! At no point were you EVER told you had to fix root, and as you found out, fixing root removes root access.

Honestly mate I was on CM for a while with my i9505 intl before deciding to try something else. I recommend this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2557353 . either the latest 5.1 or previous 5.0.1 release, they are both rock solid and there's great support for it too. They've even packaged cm addons as optional flash files.

Sorry forgot to mention it's a Google play edition so rest assured your gapps come included.

Problem with Samsung Tab 4 10.1 on Bliss Pop 5.1.1 after flashing Xposed 5.1.1

I have been using Bliss Pop 5.1.1 om my Tab 4 now for a while and it has been running great! last night I decided to install Xposed on it since it was on all my other tablets. The Tab 4 uses an Arm7 processor, so I installed/flashed Xposed 5.1.1 for the 32 bit processor. After I flashed it, the tablet restarted, but all that comes up is the BlissPop splash screen and a spinning circle with the leaf logo in the center. I do have a backup, but was wondering if there was any other way to get this to boot properly. I have already tried reflashing Xposed, but got the same result. Thanks in advance for any help anybody can provide!

How install Xpsed .
1. Install Xposed installer 3.0 alpha 4 .apk
2. Go to recovery and install xposed-v78-sdk22-arm.zip
3. Reboot and wait .

Crap! I did not install the Xposed installer before I flashed the zip file. :cyclops: Will try again later this eve. I was able to get the tablet to boot again by reflashing Blisspop and GAPPS. Thanks!

Did you try to update from 12 to 13 too?

Are you using the latest TWRP for the gt-i9500?

Hi @nono1992,
Please use GearCM Recovery (based on TWRP 3.0.0-0) from this thread.
And @Eddy2909,
Please use this Unofficial TWRP.
Open GApps couldn't be installed via CWM/PhilZ.

Tab 4 LTE SM-T535 recognized as matissewifi

SOLVED: TWRP 3.0.3 uploaded by sub77 on androidfilehost doesn't properly recognize devices. I flashed the older 3.0.2-8 and it works fine and let me able to flash matisselte rom. Anyway, I flashed crdroid but It's stuck on boot animation.
Hello everybody,
I recently bought a secondhand Galaxy Tab 4 SM-T535. It has the android stock rom 5.2 and I wanted to flash a CM or any custom rom to speed it up a bit and remove all pre-installed apps. I did flash TWRP through Odin and it works fine, then I copied Gapps for 7.1 pico versión and crDroid custom rom based on LineageOS 14.1 and nougat 7.1 for matisselte aka Tab 4 SM-T535. I followed instructions (that are pretty the same for every custom rom) so I wiped dalvik, cache, system and data, then I flashed (tried to) crDroid 14.1 zip and... TWRP says something like: unable to flash zip, it is for device matisselte but this is matissewifi. Wtf?! So, ok. I thought I'm blind and I got the wrong version, I downloaded the matissewifi version, tried to flash again and it did flash. Then I flashed Gapps and rebooted, now it goes directly in download mode and says Could not boot normally... What is happening? I also tried CM 14.1 for matissewifi, it flashes but can't boot and I'm unable to flash the matisselte version. Why?
it is for sure the LTE tablet, I read it in settings and info in the android stock rom and it has a sim slot, so it can't be the wifi one.
Thank you in advance for any reply. Let me know if you need more informations. Thanks.
P. S. I already searched in the forum and didn't find any similar case.

Hi,
has anybody found a solution...?
seen too late.....
"SOLVED: TWRP 3.0.3 uploaded by sub77 on androidfilehost doesn't properly recognize devices. I flashed the older 3.0.2-8 and it works fine and let me able to flash matisselte rom. Anyway, I flashed crdroid but It's stuck on boot animation. "

So glad you posted this because I had failed in all my attempts and had tried a few TWRP versions but not that one, which worked perfectly with Lineage 14.1.
