[Help] Restoring to Stock Setting from WANAM Exposed - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Folks,
I have used wanam exposed and changed few of my settings in my camera, dialer, browser, message and gallery. However, over constant apply of many settings, these apps become so buggy.
I have searched all over xda for restoring to stock from wanam exposed but all suggested to flash a stock rom. However, i flash the stock rom as my first option and would like to replace those apps with stock one to back to normal.
i am using SAMSUNG stock rom 4.4.2 and rooted with chainfire method. Completely stock without any changes.
Attaching the browser where the icon and layout are disordered and camera app - where the settings options are not available.
can you please share me the TouchWiz Camera/Dialer/Message/Browser/Gallery apks for me to restore to guys? Kindly share me please.

Did you uninstall Xposed and all the mods you used? If not, do so and reboot. The last time I used Xposed, after uninstalling it and rebooting the S4 returned to normal. However, if there is no change, you'll most likely have to do a factory reset in recovery. You'll lose all data, but you should have a clean slate afterward.

Yes.. Uninstalled and rebooted. Changes are not reverted to stock. Yes, factory reset is last option. Can you share me the apks if you are using kitkat rom?

I'm on Android 5.x but the 4.4.2 apps won't help you here. Xposed by design is, if I recall correctly, not supposed to touch the app files when making changes, so something else is causing this. Flashing your stock ROM via Odin should resolve this.

Can anybody share me the stock touchwiz 4.4.2 stock browser, dialer, sms, gallery. Apks please..

[SOLVED] Google Voice force closing

Hello guys, I use google Voice for my Voicemails. Ever since I got my Nexus 4 back in early December I couldn't get it to work. Even on stock without rooting.
I have tried many roms, and factory resets and as soon as I open the app it force closes.
Currently on Xylon ROM 16 and Franco Kernel 33
Gapps 20121212
Any help would be appreciated.
You've tried all the usual fixes right? Wipe app data, fix permissions, uninstall/reinstall the app? Also are you restoring the app & data with Titanium Backup (or something similar)? If you are, uninstall the app and go to the play store and install it from there. Are you restoring any system data with Titanium Backup (or something similar)? Not a good idea to restore system data especially if your changing roms.
In the same boat as OP. Haven't tried any custom ROMs yet. That was gonna be my next move, but it appears to be futile.
I've tried everything. Un install, install... Wiping data and such. And no I am not using Titanium Backup to restore.

Okay so, I hope this is temporary but I installed the apk with the version 0.4.2.54 and it's working with this one. I tried updating it via the play store and encountered the problem again.
I hope the next update will fix it.

[Q] G2 video problem, HELP!

Hi team,
I am having a problem with video recording. Camera works perfectly, but when I try to record video the camera stays on for a split second then turns off and generates a "video" that won't play b/c it says its not a recognized file format. I rebooted and it worked for a minute then stopped again.
I'm running Nova Launcher prime alternating with GEL sometimes. Have Xposed framework and G2 xposed and GravityBox but haven't made any camera mods with those.
Any advice??
What ROM are you on? It may be a bug or fault due to mods or a custom ROM. I know it's not normal stock ROM behaviour. Try clearing the camera cache and data, else, I'd suggest a back-up and wipe all apps/mods to go back to your ROM's defaults.

Running a stock rom. I reverted back to 4.2.2 rooted then upgraded to stock 4.4.2 so I can't flash roms but still rooted.
It seems to have been isolated only to Nova. When i uninstalled all launchers, cleared data, and went back to GEL (my preferred launcher, I know its weird!!) it seems to work fine now.
I like GEL now that there is an Xposed module and I can customize it how I want and decrease the icon size!!
Sorry for the dumb question, hopefully will keep working. I'm still kind-of a noob!

Not at all, it's weird how that was what it affected. Glad it's resolved!

lost multi-window and spen pen window functionally

I have note 3 rooted stock 4.4.2 touchwiz rom and I lost multi-window and spen pen window functionally. I was adding other apps to multi-window just chrome and email thought everything was saving and working fine turns out after restarting I am getting "com.sec.android.app.FlashBarService has stopped." I can trigger this every time I green tab multiwindow tab or go to use spen pen window.
What I tried so far
I looked at system/csc/feature.xml and others.xml. I saw feature had the 2 apps I tried to add in xml format so I took them out and saved.
I looked in system/app and saw FlashBarService.apk and FlashBarService.odex were missing so I downloaded them online off forum and put them in system/app with permissions -rw-r--r-. I can't install flashbarservice says needs no update and I can't clear its data. I can clear cache.
can I just flash stock 4.4.2 rom with odin without losing data or anything?
What else can I try to fix this?

I reflashed my stock rom but it didn't fix the problem? 2gb stock 4.4.2 touchwiz rom. Then I had to re-root also. but I checked mulitwindow and same message com.android.flashbar stopped working. I lost no data either did I do something wrong.
so you need to flash it but with factory reset (not the data) and reinstall all settings+apps

The problem is not Root. It works fine with root.
When you go to log into Snapchat, it checks to see if xposed is installed. If it is, it will say there is a problem and will not log you in. You should check your rom to see if it is installed (the files may be there but the app may not).
If i was you, i would clear the snapchat data and then uninstall it. Then, download the "uninstall zip" for xposed. You may say it is not installed, however, elements may still be there. running this in recovery will remove all files. When that has been flashed, you can then install snapchat. Once logged into snapchat, you can then return to recovery and install xposed if you want.
I am currently running snapchat with root and exposed. It will work.

Okay. But snapchat does not have issues with root. What custom Rom are you running if any? Just asking as stopping root will disable xposed, therefore allow the use of snapchat.

Hi guys I am having the very same issue. I initially rooted my s7 edge and snapchat was working until recently after accidentally logging out. I now can't login to snapchat!
I do not have xposed installed on my phone so it can't be completely because of root.
How do I unroot my phone? and will this mean I need to create a backup of my phone?
Thanks!
***** app
I just installed Renovate Edge 3.3 and snapchat doesn't work. Any solutions?
I don't have xposed, and I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling.

I'm the one who asked the question 2 posts below yours. I have managed to install Snapchat finally after a whole day or searching.
So... yes you have to unroot and reinstall the stock firmware. This will wipe everything off your phone, so yes you have to back your phone up.
After you unroot, you have to log into Snapchat, backup Snapchat up with Titanium, root and install your custom rom and then restore Snapchat with Titanium.
It worked for me. Now I have Renovate Edge 3.3 ROM and the latest update of Snapchat.
As for unrooting, see this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=69426561&postcount=5
Note: Unrooting doesn't fix Knox trip (warranty stays void)
How do you backup using titanium when you have no root

Thanks for that. I never installed a custom rom although i really would like to. I'm new to the roit world and customisation rom wise so need to do some research on it. At the moment I'm using my s5 as a play toy for customisation.
Regarding the SC i just fully unrooted my s5 then logged in to SC. After doing so i created a back up using Titanium back up. Then transfered data across to my s7 edge and restored data which allowed me to log in. I could have just unrooted my s7 edge, then logged in and then re-root but as a noob didn't want to risk any data loss from s7 edge.
What would you suggest as a good custom rom for the s7 edge? I'm using stock rom and don't currently have twrp installed (I'm still new on twrp front and benefits of it too).
Thanks!
Ignore the instructions about unrooting and reflashing stock firmware..
All you have to do is uninstall Snapchat, uninstall Xposed. Reboot phone. Install snapchat and login, go into Titanium Backup and backup the "app data."
Then install Xposed, reboot, restore the data of Snapchat via Titanium Backup and your set. I used to run into this issue all the time when rooted and using Xposed
I have unrooted my s7 edge and flashed stock rom and the problem is solved in my device.

No problem. I thought you had installed a custom rom. Since you hadn't, unrooting would do the trick. In my case, it didn't work. I had to go back to stock firmware and then use Titanium.
As for a good custom rom, I've only tried Renovate Edge. It's pretty awesome. I did some research and compared popular roms and found out it's one of the 1st built roms for S7 edge and is still considered one of the best.

Settings App Manager Crashing Regardless of Root?

TLDR: App Manager crashes Settings on selection in all scenarios tried, both rooted and unrooted. Solutions or explanations?
So it's basically as described there. App Manager is crashing on a new Moto G4 XT1625 no matter what I do. I am at a loss. It crashes while rooted with Magisk, crashes when Magisk is uninstalled, crashes when I do a fresh flash of the Motorola stock ROM. I've even rooted and gone into Titanium Backup and ensured nothing is frozen, and it crashes.
I can long press apps on the drawer to reach individual app settings, but I cannot get into the App Manager itself. I've tried clearing the cache via this entry into the settings app info, and I've cleared the cache via TWRP. Neither has seemed to affect the crash either.
The only common denominator I can think of between all attempts is that the bootloader is obviously unlocked, but I can't connect that to the crash in my head.
At a loss here - any ideas? What am I missing, or what else might I try? Thanks for any education.
got this crash as well on my xt1622, TWRP, marshmallow, rooted
BUT THE MOST IMPORTANT REASON that cause this is because I deleted some unused (india) apps after rooting. Then the app manager messed up.
I just flashed the stock Nougat yesterday (https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4/help/xt1622-nougat-root-questions-t3701145) - clean, no root, no TWRP, no modifications. Then, the app manager worked as expected. I doubt this will help as you stated that you already tried to flash the stock rom. You might have some other problem there.

Indeed I have, which makes it all the more confusing as to what could remain unchanged and still affect it. Although, it is something that you encountered it under the same general environment (twrp, marshmellow, rooted). I disabled a few apps when I first rooted, and assumed that was the cause as you saw, but no idea why the flashing did not fix it...
