KitKat Launcher after factory data reset on 5.1.1 - Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

This seems really odd to me. I did a Factory data reset under Settings > Backup & reset to wipe all my info from my N10 before giving it to someone else. Once it completed and the other person signed in with their Google account, the main launcher screens are the KitKat version rather than Lollipop even though it is on 5.1.1. Everything else looks like Lollipop - the Settings screen and options within, the stock apps like the calc are the Lollipop version. Not sure why the home screen and app drawer aren't updated. Do I need to just install the Google Now Launcher from the Play Store and set that as the default or is there something else I should try first? Why wouldn't the stock Lollipop launcher have stuck after the data wipe?

[Q] Settings app crashing???

So tonight I tried the new Cm13 that got updated, doing a full wipe. All went good after a bit of testing, finding that the camera bug I already knew about was there, but after installing a few of my apps that I had before at the same time I tried installing some unofficial ones from .apks, Google Services Framework started crashing and my launcher, Trebuchet also did, so as the settings when I tried getting into the apps screen to try wiping data and cache for the settings app. So I got stuck there. Luckily I had a backup and succesfully restored to my last ROM with most of my data back. I did try anything I could think of to stop the crashing, except flashing another Gapps package. I did try reflashing the same with no success to fix the crashes. On the thread it recommended the Nano package because that provided you with the option to hold home button to Screen Search...
Thank you for any answers. BTW I also tried wiping those apps data trough Titanium Backup with no succes, again. :crying:

Reset phone and Google Play wont download apps

Hi all,
I have a G900I running Nougat. Recently My phone started getting slow, so I reset the phone. Here is where the issues occur, I had restored some apps and it worked for sometime but took a very long time to restore my existing apps that were installed, so I figured lets reset again and start without restoring at all.
Now the biggest issue is to get apps download at all. I can only update the existing apps that were installed. I have tried many solutions from google but no go from disabling the google play store app, clearing cache and for Google Play Services. as well. I keep on getting the Google play error of 905 and 495. I am quite stumped on how to fixed this issue.
Is there any method to fix this issue? I hope I am not resorted to root and install a custom rom to fix this issue. I have attached a screenshot of the stock rom I am running.

Big Problems after Android 10 update.

Hi guys i just updated my s10+ exynos to Android 10. After the update, alot of my apps are crashing, e.g. stock email app, gmail, google search, ebay and even the galaxy store itself.
I have cleared data and cache on one of the galaxy store app and re-launched it but im still getting same problem. I have also booted into recovery and did a wipe cache partition but still the apps are crashing. I use nova launcher prime, but i even used stock launcher and im still getting app crashes. I dont want to do a factory reset ideally.
Can anyone suggest anything or shed some light on this problem please?
I think that the only proper fix for this would be to do a factory reset. Samsung is known for buggy major updates.
Back up nova configuration uninstall then reinstall each app. See if it fixes the issues.
I had the same problem. A factory reset fixed it for me.

Google Photos - stuck backup

Hello people, I am new to this device and forum. I would appreciate any help you can give. I love the device, but I am struggling with something concerning Google Photos. It keeps getting stuck at various points in the backup process. I have searched several ways and have tried the suggestions about uninstalling updates, clearing the data cache, even purchased a new SD card... but still it is stuck. On previous phones, I have had NO problems with this at all on my previous phones. I have updated to MIUI 11 and I am using Nova Pro as my launcher. I have also tried using the Gcam mod on the phone and somehow I wonder if this is part of the issue?
Feedback please.
Solved with MIUI 11. Update and make full reset AFTER update (Settings --> About Phone --> Backup and reset --> Clean all data --> All).
Worked for me. If not, i dont know (try with another account?).

Thanks for the info! So, were you having similar issues before you did the reset? I have already updated to MIUI Global 11.0.4 but I have not tried the reset yet.
To help with this conversation... it seems that if I remove all the Google Photo updates, it behaves correctly, BUT when I allow the app updates to go through, the backup issue returns.
I will try the reset suggestion soon and report back.
To keep this discussion moving along, here is an update... I did the full reset after I had already upgraded to MIUI 11, however, the same issue persists for me. If I allow Google Photos to update past what was originally installed, the app gets stuck again. I can uninstall all updates and clear the caches and it will start working OK again. This is a pain and the issue should not exist. Let me emphasize that the devise is NOT rooted and is all original. I have installed Nova Prime launcher from the Play Store and my usual apps.
Anyone else have ideas - outside rooting and using a custom ROM?
Ok, to add a little more... I removed Nova as I wonder if there is some incompatibility with how it works with MIUI. It was acting a bit odd at times and "often" it would loose its ability to display notification badges. It would say that I needed to enable notification access, but I am 100% sure that it was already allowed. I would then turn that permission off and back on and it would start working again. So, I have gone to the less custome "Poco" launcher which is sup[posed to be a more official Xaiomi product.
