I would try that, yes. If that doesn't do it only thing I can think of is maybe a short or something to do with hardware?

"Unfortunately, System UI has stopped" won't stop popping up. So frustrating.

"Unfortunately, System UI has stopped" won't stop popping up. So frustrating.
The phone is brand new, I just got it in yesterday and had it only for a day.
I was using swype, and just uninstalled it, and when I rebooted the phone, that error keeps popping up and won't go away, making it unable for me to use the phone.
Here's a video of what i'm talking about
How do I fix this? God the phone is brand new
Factory reset?

I guess that's my last resort. Damn
Edit: How would I even factory reset it? I literally can't use the phone. It's bricked. And in the recovery mode menu there is no option to factory reset. (tried pressing power and volume up)
If your phone is still locked, save the data (if needed) via adb and unlock it. But there could be easier way.

go to gmail account settings and sync everything. Google play will have your apps backup but not app data. Save all music, pics and files that you dont want to lose to your computer. Then just go to backup and reset in your settings menu and select Factory Data reset.
if that doesnt solve your problem you might have to use fastboot to reinstall the Jellybean.

I've had something similar to this on my G2x at one point; Android keeps popping up with errors and you can't do a single thing but reboot...which ends up erroring the same way when you're back in in an endless loop.
OP, you'll have to wipe and reinstall. If you've rooted it and enabled USB debugging then you're golden. If not, you'll have to go through several hoops to flash a factory image.

I have go launcher. After changing a wallpaper it starts the system ui loop pop up.
So after the restart I went to settings to come back to default launcher.
No more pop up
Tell me if it works with you...

Sorry.. Googled topic, brought me here, did not realize... And i did fastboot the firmware, still systemUI issue but only with PAC-man... Handful of others I tested no issues.. I read on github (after i posted here) is a Know issue for PAC and why!!! Just strange, V05 was released weeks ago, why sooo long for issue to submerge... And no issues with V01-V04

I am having this situation right now for my Nexus 4 (running stock 4.2.2 and installed Quick Settings mod from kevdliu, use the ROM for a long time and one day want to wipe all, after wiping, and reboot system I got this) and I think I figured out the solution: Wait until the battery is exhausted and automatically turned off, then put it into the charger for some time. Then pull it out of the charger, press volume up + down + power to get into fastboot. From here, we can wipe all and flash a new rom, or restore to stock rom, or do anything fastboot can do.

why install quick settings when stock 4.2.2 comes with its own form of quick settings? I'm willing to bet that's your problem!

you haven't used stock 4.2.2 have you? Its quick settings is so frustrating, it always takes me to Settings to turn on or off Wifi. I want a quick Settings that takes only one click to turn on or off Wifi, so I have to install that mod. Btw, I'm still waiting for the battery to die

hey i know this thread was already answered but i found that this messaged popped up after changing some settings for the navigation bar at the bottom of the screen. i didnt want it on my screen because i kept clicking either the back button or the home button which was very frustrating. so i tried to turn it off..that didnt work so instead i set all of the buttons to empty and the visibility to 0% and only after tracing back the steps i took (having to click the ok button for the stupid message about 80 times) i finally managed to find out that the navigation bar was the problem. hope you guys are able to fix your problem as simply as i did without doing anything drastic.

I recently had this issue and determined also that it must be something with my status/notification bar as it seemed to resize the screen to show the bar and then immediately resized it again as it displayed the System UI message. I use both Wanam and XBlast and disabled those as well as all Xposed modules. I also disabled Nova Launcher as default and rebooted. Re-enabled all and rebooted again and problem was resolved. Hopefully this will help others as well.

Unfortunately the process com.android.phone has stopped

After flashing the 4.4.2 firmware to my Note 3, I get the following error message once the device turns on: "Unfortunately the process com.android.phone has stopped". I can just click ok and the message goes away but it shouldn't be appearing in the first place so does anyone know how to make it go away? An the phone works fine.
Yes I did a clean install, tried clearing the data and cache from app manager and any of the obvious ideas.
Anybody else having this issue? Any help is greatly appreciated!

try doing a factory reset, if this does not work then try flashing a different 4.4.2 or re-downloading the one you flashed and trying again.

you have already downloaded and installed a different version of 4.4.2????
if you are getting the problem on multiple roms then you must be doing something wrong during the flashing process.

Hmm, Tried a reflash? -- if no good, reflash with a full wipe that usually solves 99% of issues. Only thing I can think of
I had that problem too and it almost made me to hit my note 3 into the wall. From the first day I turned him...
My fix solution was Settings>Application Manager> Menu > Reset app preference>Reboot. Do it again if its going to be the sam outcome. I found tjat when you are force stopping aps, or closing you are going to end with those messages....

my friend
don't try to reset , wipe any thing .
i have same problem and posted before : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2620340
i asked from all kings of developing , but no one could help me .
i searched on google and found out that problem maybe cause of our sim-card . maybe changing sim card your problem will be solved.
i'm almost confident that is cause of baseband " NA6" and we should wait for 4.4.2 for our region with different baseband .
be aware , this problem is with u even when try any custom rom , cause all af the are using NA5 and NA6 .
just crossing your finger and wait for new and diffrent baseban version my friend .

Are you rooted with any changes?
Sent from my Note 3...making all others drool!
I had the same type of problem myself,
But on my HTC one. I was close to start the painful process of unrooting my device and go back to stock.
My problem was not having ANY network & using the phone or sms didn't work at all. I read many "solutions" on the internet but none helped.
I experimented myself and found a solution to my problem. If it can help others as well I am glad.
First go into settings, then apps.
Scroll to all applications, search for phone.apk - if you have an option to uninstall phone.apk to previous version/state do this. Reboot the phone. In my case this did the trick and everything is working properly. Hope it helps others as well.
Please respond if you tried and it worked. It may be helpful for others too.

I have a LG L70 that I rooted. I didn't install any ROM's on it. But what I did do was change the run time from Davik to ART. When the phone turned back on I received the warning Unfortunately the phone stopped working. And when I tried to factory reset the LG L70, that's when I get the error message Unfortunately com.android.phone has stopped working. Then I reset the phone back to Davik with no success. Is there a solution to fix this problem without using a PC? I can't even download anything because I can't sign in to my Google account. And trying to download direct the phone will not open any files, even the files I've saved on my SD Card. Please help. I'm going crazy trying to figure this out. Going to settings>apps>all apps etc. doesn't work.

Try wiping cache, dalvik cache, system data and then factory reset (all this from recovery). I don't own a LG phone but this process is the same for almost all phones I think.

How did you wipe the cache/dalvik in this situation. I can't even reinstall anything to re-root the phone. And there is no keyboard that I can type on. The only way that I can communicate with the phone is to speak through voice mode. And that isn't always a good experience.

Display Problem

Hey guys
I have installed "Blue Screen Filter" . But it doesn't work fine. Whether enable or disable, The app filters the screen all the time (even in other apps) and it seems a yellow filter applied on my screen except in device settings that the display is normal. So I uninstalled the app but the yellow filter still exists. I also checked the device settings and checked the screen mode for "Adaptive" or "Standard" and so on, but still the damn yellow color exists. The "Reading Mode" is also turned off. So anyone had an idea about this problem?

Yes but still all of my data will delete. Would be nice if there was a way to skip factory reset too :silly:
Suggest install the app again .
If it has settings go to them and remove defaults .
Also settings application manager the app clear defaults clear cache clear data .Then uninstall .
Fails as said flash stock rom or factory reset .
Simplest would be to restore your Nandroid Backup .

Hey fellas!
I accidentally find the solution! The "CM Locker" was cause of this problem
An update came on play store for this app and when installing update the screen became normal! And after a few second it became yellow again. So I Freezed CM Locker and everything goes fine!

Can't share photos from gallery

After rooting my phone the share button in gallery is not working anymore and after pressing it nothing happens. when I reflash stock rom it's working fine but somehow after rooting it's not working
share button in Google photos and file manager and everything else is working just Huawei stock gallery
Anybody knows how to fix it?

Hi Ahmedoov
Try installing TWRP recovery (guides are here on the P8-Lite forum) then clear your data/cache partitions, ( Make a backup of everything first , I recommend Titanium Backup)

Stock camera freezes

My stock camera freezes whenever i open it for the first time,i have to switch modes to get it working.
as long as the camera is in memory it works fine but the moment you clear it and open the app it happens again.
I am gcam installed and is having no such issue but i prefer the stock camera.
did factory reset issue persists.
I have unlocked bootloader so i was thinking of uninstalling the camera app from adbfast tool.
should i do that?
can i install the stock camera app using the apk?
and can anyone provide the stock camera apk to try the same.
will unistalling the camera cause any issue?
any help will be appreciated
i am having the indian k20 running miui global 10.3.6
