Everytime I turned on my phone or if it rebooted, I always get:
Android is upgrading
-----------------------------
Starting Apps.
I am on stock ROM, TWRP recovery, Faux kernel. I think this happens after I wiped dalvik/cache in the recovery. Any idea how to stop it? It's nothing very major though as it only takes a few seconds.
are you using any sound/volume mods? or any other flashable mods? i think awesomebeats dies this, at least others have complained about it wiping the dalvik after every reboot.

That's normal if you've wiped the Dalvik cache, and no you can't stop it.
Edit: so wait, this is happening even when you reboot normally after not wiping any caches or flashing a kernel?

yes.. and it updates apps after delvic wipe.. but in my case whenever i restart I see the "Android is upgrading" box for about 3-5 sec.. no update app progress bar.. and when I wipe delvic this upgrading apps takes like a min or so with my 150+ apps.. but this "Android is upgrading" dialogue box appears only for 3-5 sec..
I am using PA 3.99 with franco kernel.. once booted every thing inside is running smoothly and no fc's...
Same here. No odex files in app folder. No wipe, no cache clearing. Plain reboot. And Android is upgrading message on every boot. (Starting apps)
No optimizing apps message though.

Wouldn't it be related to "zipalign apk on each boot" parameter ? or an other init script put in place by a dirty flash (no /system or /data format) or a kernel... ?
Seems likely. Could you explain in detail kindly?

Have a look in the files located in this folder for example (maybe there's another location for init scripts) :
- /system/etc/init.d/
- /system/addon.d/
and open each one, to see what are the tasks contained

Removed the scripts present in init.d folder and then booted with empty folder, but message still present.
Checked the addon.d folder, but those scripts are only for backing up gapps etc.
Not sure where else to try. Please advise.
Thanks.

Did you try to re-flash your (stock) ROM (and the kernel after 2 reboots) with wiping only /cache and dalvik-cache ? with latest 2.6.2.0 TWRP ?

A pity that so much details are missing : what did you do before it happened ?
What's your set up ? rom, kernel ? after having update your rom ? kernel ? apps ? which versions ?
Did you try to revert to a clean install after having backup up your apps+datas ?

im sorry, just wanted the OP to know that he is not the only one with this "problem" by the way im rooted stock rom and kernel, some apps start up when i boot like nova launcher, lucky patcher sidebar and udn. But i am not looking for a fix for this as this does not take that long and i just said that to let the OP know that he is not alone with this "problem"
Sent from my Nexus 4
Ok guys,
Here's the solution. Don't flame me for talking about unholy stuffs. I'm posting this only because it is the cause of the problem.
If you are using LP or such tools to create .odex files of some app in /app folder. It won't cause any boot msg.
But after you dirty flash a ROM, that .odex files somehow gets backdated and causes the UPGRADING msg.
Fix is, delete the odex files, and re create them if needed. Once after every dirty flash.
Sent from my Nexus 4
I have found fix for this error, it is mainly due to odex files which are created by lucky patcher so deleting these files using lucky patcher itself will surely remove this error with 50 percent success rate. Here's the fix; open lucky patcher, there in lower left section you can see Toolbox, click that Toolbox then select 4th last option i.e Remove all odex files.Thats it android will reboot on itself and vola no android is upgrading. .
Check out attachment for help.

Xposed for Samsung Lollipop is out. But I am having trouble installing apps since I installed xposed so I decided to remove it. I restored the system partitioned with a backup I've made before the installation but looks like xposed isn't removed. I still getting "Optimising app" at every start up and I cannot install apps from Play Store. Many of users that installed xposed reported these.
I even tried to wipe system (not data) and flashing the rom I'm using on it again but xposed is still there. (Stil getting "optimising apps" and error "-504" from play store. ) What can I do to totally remove xposed without wiping data or restoring data partition?

How about this?? thanks to @craigcrawford1988
Did you try this ?Simply boot into TWRP, and mount system, then Advanced -> File Manager then do the following:1.Go into /system/bin/ and delete app_process32 and app_process32_xposed
2.Rename app_process32_original to app_process32
3.Delete dex2oat and rename dex2oat.orig to dex2oat
4.Repeat the above step for oatdump and patchoat
5.Go up a directory and then into the lib directory
6.Delete libart.so and rename libart.so.orig to libart.so
7.Repeat the above step for libart-compiler.so, libart-disassembler.so and libsigchain.so
8.Delete libxposed_art.so
9.Go up a directory and delete xposed.prop
10.Go into framework directory and delete XposedBridge.jar
11.Reboot your device.

Tried that too but that was for the "normal" official xposed alpha. The way the devs set xposed on samsung touchwiz is different. We flash a different version of xposed framework.
Many of the original files you listed I don't find it (almost all). I think the only way to totally remove it is a full wipe
well good luck with your problem bud , i tried Sorry we could not determine the issue.... Long weekend !

I tried this but I still can't install apps larger than 1mb. Apps that are smaller than 1mb installed perfectly. I don't get fc BTW. I got error -504 from play store. I Googled about it and the error is due to lack of space in /cache partition. I checked the partitions and proved it. Only 800kb free in cache partition but play store needs to download apks to cache before installing. Even restoring titanium backups made during xposed is installed to a clean installed rom can cause that. So I did a clean install without any backups restored.
I tried clearing cache before, it's emptied when I cleared it, but it fills up when optimising app and I don't think I can skip optimising app after clearing cache.
Try formatting system, data, cache then restore system and after first boot, restore data
If didnt work (this is impossible) that means you did the backup after installing xposed
Goodluck

Yes I was lazy I backed up after installing the apk before flashing the zip. So that backup is somehow unusable. I already did a fresh install .
I'm wanting to change the boot animation on my OnePlus 6T but when I go to move a new bootanimation.zip to
/system/media it say task failed and the .zip file that's there has 0 bytes.
Anyone got any idea why it's not working? Didn't have this issue with any other phone.

A couple of reasons.
OnePlus left zero room on system partition. You'd need to remove something beforehand.
Many file explorers, titanium backup, etc are having issues modifying the system partition. Best luck I've had is using the built in file explorer in TWRP.
I literally replaced my bootanimation yesterday. I used a Magisk module for a bootanimation and repalced the bootanimation in the module install location which is on your data partition. This way, you can remove the module and still keep your original bootanimation should you wish to revert back. The bootanimation I used was originally for a 720p screen so I had to modify it for the dimensions of the OP6T (1080 x 2340). I am still trying to work on modifying the Magisk module so it has my bootanimation instead. It didn't work when I tried it yesterday and had to replace the file manually after, which then worked.

You can increase the size of the system partition with this tool: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/how-to/tool-epr-enchilada-partition-resizer-t3963587
I would avoid trying to resize the partitions as suggested above unless you fully understand what it is doing and what issues may arise from messing with the partition tables.
I just put my bootanimation.zip into the system-less hosts Magisk module. I have been using that module for any system files I need to replace. It's nice and simple plus you can revert the changes by just disabling the module.

It's built into Magisk. In the settings...
Edit:
Also if you understand what I am doing then you will see that you can basically use any Magisk module to accomplish this. It just has to be mounting files against the /system partition. I used the system-less hosts since it literally is only replacing one file on the /system partition so nothing complex was going on with this module.
Hi, a few days ago I manually updated my OP6T to the latest version manually (I can't do it normally because I'm rooted and the system shows me an error)
I use the Cerbeus anti-theft application, I like to turn it into a system application to have full control of my phone in cases of emergency (theft, for example).
The point is that I can install magisk 20v and root perfectly, but when I try to make cerberus or any application as a system application, it shows me the error 'system' not in / proc / mounts, I use link2sd, titanium back up, root explorer all the options does not work, i cant mount rewrite to erase system apps but i can't make normal apps to system app, I tried to update the ROM stock directly from the official website, but at the end, always shows me that error, can anyone help me with this problem?
Thank you! if you need more information tell me
I'm so sorry if my English is not too good, I'm still learning

AFAIK Systemize Is the easiest and recommend way. About the things being removed after factory reset, that's normal as Systemize is System-Less. All changes it makes will be reverted after a Factory Reset.

Hi again guys, now im trying again to make Cerberus as system app I was able to solve the problem about mounting system, through ADB I placed the APK manually in the system / priv-app folder, I gave it permissions with CHMOD 644 i restarted and effectively became system application Up to this point everything was in order, until I did a factory reset, I got stuck in the boot animation, To solve it I had to boot TWRP and manually remove the apk from the priv-app folder, with this the system boot normally (curious because the root permission was there Despite having restarted the System)
Someone have any ideas to solve it? I don't care about magisk and if the safety net are in red
Thanks!

Hi , so apperntly the only way currently to modify system files of OnePlus 8 Pro is through flashing magisk modules , Tried using several file explorers but couldn't change permissions , tried via twrp but system won't be mounted , so my question is if there is a magisk module that someone made to mount r/w , if there is , I would like to get it , if there isn't , I would appreciate if anyone can create that for me , and please don't tell me to go to terminal and type commands because IT DOESN'T WORK, I don't know exactly what flashing magisk modules do but I figured out that it's the only way I can change system files , please help
Mounting system as R/W is impossible on stock software (OOS, OneUI etc).
This applies to all devices launched with Android 10, so, 7T/Pro and up.
https://source.android.com/devices/tech/ota/dynamic_partitions/implement
Your best shot is to create a module that 'modifies' the system systemless-ly.

Anyway such a module won't do any good IMHO. System/product/vendor partitions are combined into a single "super" partition.
The individual parts for /system, /vendor, /product are then mounted from there.
You will never be able to physically write on files in those partitions (if that is/was your intention).
However, you can write a Magisk module (easily) which replaces files with others (e.g. I replaced my /system/etc/hosts files with a version that has ad-blocked IP addresses). You can "delete" files by making them "empty" with a Magisk module (e.g. I have hidden the OnePlus phone/dialer/calculator/messages/notes apps in this way as I prefer the Google variants).
It's not that hard ... assuming you have a bit of Linux dev skills.
Can you be more specific about what exactly you want to do? Edit some file?

Enable systemless hosts in magisk manager and adaway will work. And for editing build prop, look up "resetprop", it's a magisk tool to modify build prop systemlessly.
Thank you so much! Adaway is up and running! I just got a new phone, and got so worried when it dawned on me that the System folder was locked down!
And I found "MagiskHide Props Config". Is it better or worse than Resetprop, or the same? "Props Config" has already flaked on me in the half hour I've been using it, but since a reinstall, it's working again.
I'm hoping it's just getting comfortable, but if you think Resetprop is more stable, please tell me.
And thanks again! Feeling good about technology.
I have ROOTED, rooted mean now you are Administrator of all in your phone. But live is not like a dream, I can't delete or modify anything in system folder on my rooted samsung phone, when using Z Archiver to delete empty and junk folder it says failed even sometimes it says Access Denied ( maybe the problem is here) converted RO->RW, tried through ES File it says in use or busy, Root Explorer is useless even if I adds write permission, but when using lucky patcher to uninstall & install and apps as system then it can creates or delete in systm app, which means there may be a way for me to modify it, if the trash can't be deleted then the system partition will be filled with garbage forever and can only get fatter. Who know how to solve it?

1) open platform tools after enabling usb debugging and do "adb push /sdcard/yourfile /system/etc/security/cancerts
that will copy the file from sdcard to system/etc/security/cancerts
