[Q] Kies 4.3 update crashing phone

Hey so I finally decided to update my phone to 4.3, I hooked it up with my computer and updated it through the Samsung Kies wizard. The phone was rooted. For some reason the update completely messed up my phone.
-- Samsung Galaxy S4 I9505--
I am constantly getting a:
The process com.google.process.gapps is no responding.
As a push notification I am getting (coming from Samsung Knox):
An application tried to run system on your device without authorisation. The attempt has been blocked.
(I literally translated this from my local language to English so it might be different)
I have tried disabling and re-enabling downloadmanager, removed cache from google calendar, google chrome, good play, google play services, gmail aswell as disabling all those notifications.
I am also geting a system is not responding error message now and then, same thing for 'picasa uploader" and some other system apps.
I have also removed triangle away and some other apps that were getting the crash report.
Has anyone ever faced this issue?
I really don't want to have to reset my phone, I can't believe an official update through Kies can bring so much trouble...
I can't even back any of my apps up since the phone is constantly crashing...
Thank you in advance!
This is on Samsung Galaxy S4 I9505

Root and Lucky Patcher Problems

Hello, I have a Note 3 SM-N9005 LTE Hong Kong rooted via Kingoroot application for PC. Now the problem that I am facing is regarding Lucky Patcher application, don't know the problem is due to root done by Kingoroot or it is something else, thats why I need help, and yes informing this before hand that I have latest busybox installed and yes tried the new and the old versions of Lucky Patcher too and the root is working perfectly for other applications, problem remains as it is. When I open Lucky Patcher and click on any application and then on available patches a loading circle comes up and then it gets stuck, I then have to press the back key and the circle gets disappeared and then the options come up (don't know how), then when I apply the updates (after selecting relevant updates for the application) it then gets stuck on this "get data from root", and finally I have to close the application, I tried searching on google and some others also have the same problem but no solution for it, if you check the Update Log of Lucky Patcher in their 4.8.8 version they FIXED this problem indicating that "Try fix freeze get data from root for some devices with proxy enabled". Still the fix does not work for me, now I don't know what is the problem as I have tried the latest and also the old version of the application. I think it has some relation to root done by Kingoroot, because I previously rooted Note 2 and it was working perfectly with Lucky Patcher but I rooted Note 3 with Kingoroot so I think maybe this is the problem, I would really appreciate some good possible solutions if someone has to offer.
Thanks.

If you want to use a app, pay for it instead of stealing from developers using Lucky Patcher.

Software has been modified in an unauthorized way?

I HAVE NEVER rooted my S7 E and when I tried to check for updates today I got the message you see below. I am running package disabler, I enabled all packages and tried again-same result. Wtf

Factory reset your phone, if your not rooted ever and running stock only..Many users complaining about this after updating latest 7.0 firmware..It might be bug in update..By the way factory reset your phone and report here if it helps or not

I would also add that I bought the phone new not used. It took me hours to setup my phone the way I like not wanting to lose everything...I have smartswitch on my Macbook pro will SS restore it after I back it up? Does SS back it up to cloud or local? Not interested in cloud backups.
After a restart I am getting "this device is up to date" from the update app.
Curiously my device status has changes feom CUSTOM to OFFICIAL. It was custom when the update app wasn't working. Also now my package disabler ia giving me an error "unable to disable package deactivate administrator". Now I cant disable anything in PD.

See below

Hi, it happened to my s7 phone,one weekbefore i checked for update, it showed update available. I just waited for weekend to update but it showed same messages in above blog, i checked about device-status it showed customized , i wondered how it happend, i didn't do any change to phone, and i start to uninstall the app and apk which down loaded from web (not from playstore) , and few downloaded files also i deleted from my files-download- from internal storage. Again i checked softerupdate, yes it worked, status also shows official. I hope this information may help someone.

Unfortunately phone stopped

Hi,
I have a Note 3 with Lollipop 5.0.
A couple of weeks ago I started to get this annoying message when there's a call coming in. It forces me to reboot, (the popup doesn't go away but I use the split second after clicking ok to restart ...). Calling out is fine.
I've googled this error and the typical solution of clearing cache and data in the phone and SIM apps is not working.
The error doesn't happen in Safe mode so it suggests that is caused by an installed app. I did a backup and removed all apps and sure enough, the error didn't appear.
After many combinations and trial-error days of work I seem to have pinpointed the culprit.
I use Atom launcher and if I remove it and go back to the default 'TouchWiz' the error doesn't happen so it's definitely the custom launcher.
However, this started to happen recently despite having used Atom launcher for months with no issues. I've tried a previous version with the same problem.
Also, I've tried different launchers (nova, CM ...) and they all cause the error so, somehow the system won't accept ANY custom launcher and it causes the phone error .
I'm at a total loss .... any ideas ?
Thanks

Google Apps Cant be disabled

Hello..
I have a One Plus 6T since 1 year and this is the first problem that I have..
I updated the phone a few weeks ago with the last update 9.0.17
Yesterday I did a Wipe data+cache to restore the phone like new..
But I have one problem.. I always disable the apps of google like Duo, Chrome, Youtube and Photos.. But once they are disabled in a few hours automatically they came enabled again.. Why!!???
I know that using adb I can delete those apps but I prefer to use the disable option of the system.. In the last versions of the OxygenOs this was working fine but not now and I know that there is more people with that problem. Anybody knows why,??
Many thanks for the help

I freeze some apps with sd maid as I noticed the same or similar issue

I believe is has to do with the OOS update. I had that problem as well before. I am rooted so I used Titanium to freeze the apps. When things update it appears the app is functional and does not reinstall it.
If you are rooted, I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend the xXxNoLimits Magisk module. It allows you to debloat both Google and Oneplus apps.

Many thanks for the answers.. I just want to use the tools that offer the system.. I think that is the last update because in the old ones this works like a charm.
I have not rooted yet the phone because I think that OxygenOS works fine without root maybe in the future I will start with magisk modules and custom roms but for now I'm going to wait.
I'll keep waiting for new OS Updates and maybe is solved. Many thanks for the help.
