I recently did not install or update applications. A few hours ago, i opened phone and when i clicked an app, it gave error "the xx applciaton has stopped". For example twitter whatsapp but not camera but in camera there was no gallery.
I restarted a few times and now i can not beopened, keeps restarting after loading os and when it says "preparinbg sd card" , it restarts.
I can not remember but my rom is aurorasp 4.0.4

Is not there a way not to lose data and to reset, maybe updating instead of flashing?

I am waiting help.

But i cant go into desktop mode to use applications, can i use from adb?

Waiting help.

Hi!
Yes, you can save your phone's data using adb:
Code:
adb pull /data /path/to/save/data
For example, if I want to save my data in a folder called 'data' on the desktop of my computer, I would use this:
Code:
adb pull /data /home/username/Desktop/data
Good Luck

in that matter whenever i see that kind of error like not responing"""""""""""""""
just go to application manager and touch left touch panel (depends on phone) reset app preferances
may it give you out of it. if no than wipe data from recovery or reload os
thnx
regards.
skhan

I cant click anything, it restarts as soon as being opened.
Is there any way different from adb, for example again updating ?

Hey. I would really like to help.
Which phone model are you using? (u8800-51?)
Which ROM are you running?

Andit keeps restarting, how can i use adb?

Can you go into recovery? If you can then go into recovery and backup your ROM. After that, get a CyanogenMod JB ROM in you phone from recovery, and install that CyanogenMod on top of aurora. You can wipe cache and dalvik cache. That will not delete your data.

Need help with Lollipop bugs

I have updated my phone to latest official 5.0.1 and have also installed the 355 mb update that came after the main lollipop update Have wiped cached and data and done a clean install yet i still have some of the lolipop bugs..They are as follows:
1. homescreen Wallpaper gets set to default wallpaper randomly.
2. Keyboard crashes few times in a day.
3. Using snapchat and other apps continuously causes the phone to reboot
4. Overheating...phone gets heated like mad.
I noticed most of this happens when I am on 3g and on wifi everything works smooth.
my phone is rooted. Please let me know if there are tweaks or apps that i can install to fix these bugs. Thanks so much!

I think you should try some custom roms which base on android 5.0.1 for S4, suggest Omega Rom v28 .
This will fix those bugs easily

Start with a clean device. Thus wipe your data.
It's not needed to wipe your internal storage. But make sure to wipe /system, /cache en /data (without internal storage).

Hey thanks for your reply. Can you tell me how to wipe data without wiping internal storage ?? Generally when i wipe data or do a factory reset it wipes everything.

In TWRP go to advanced wipe option and select dalvik, system, cache, then swipe to wipe. Now flash the ROM again and it should work fine.

I tried but in vain

It's very unlikely that it didn't fix the issue, the first boot always takes a considerable amount of time so try waiting for a few minutes, if that doesn't work it might be because your data partition was encrypted, if you don't mind loosing the data wipe and format it and try the same steps as before again, if not just flash the January build.

There is no need to wipe the data partition, if the data partition corrupts it would corrupt everything all together.
Anyways can you tell me everything you've flashed in the progress?
With PE you only need to flash the rom itself. (Gapps are already included) and try to shut down the phone after flash (Using shut down option in twrp) and power on with power button
Try to flash PE again but before you do, wipe Data, Dalvik, Cache, and System
Dont worry about losing important data on the /Data/ partition. That is the partition where your.. well, app data is held. (Internal storage is the place of where all your personal data lies such as pictures and videos)

From AOSP to miui

Hi,
Running latest evolution x rom and want to go back to miui. Simply wiped everything in twrp and installed xiaomi.eu rom - installation was successfully but when It's finish booting and the set-up screen should be there my screen just goes black and set-up screen is coming again and again and again and again. Even tried different miui ROMs. Was running completely fine a week before.
Any suggestions?

Did you leave your password/pin before you changed rom? Try deleting in TWRP and see if it helps.

Sorry but I'm out of ideas then. I usually go back and forth xiaomi.eu and aosp but I haven't encountered this. I usually wipe cache, dalvik, data, and system. I also have to reboot to recovery after wipe before flashing xiaomi.eu to be able to mount the system partition.

Mhm. I will try again this evening. Let's see.

I'm facing the same issue...
Coming from LOS, I flashed latest EU rom, wiped data and internal storage.
Now I'm looping at the setup screen "Just a sec..."
I removed the pin/pwd in TWRP but it didn't help

Oh sorry I misunderstood, no I just wiped /data.
As soon as I copied the rom on my phone again I'll try that if I'm facing the same issue :good:

I followed this steps to come back to MIUI from LOS:
1. Wiped everything (cache, internal, vendor, system, data)
2.After wiping I did "format data" and said "Yes"
3.Rebooted to recovery TWRP again
4.Mounted my phone on PC and copied rom.zip
5.Flashed the zip and reboot to system
Try this and it should work, for me did! Good luck!

Oh boi. So when I wipe my internal storage it's not the same like formating data ? This was my mistake

I don't know precisely why, but yeah, it's not the same thing. In fact, I had problems too, but formatting data after total wipe resolved them

formatting data "Yes" is another thing that is important when you flash custom ROM or go back to stock ROM.

After flash the miui, go back wipe -> Factory Data -> Type (yes) -> restart
it will be works

Same here
I flashed fastboot rom to get device work again

Stuck on logo screen when installing any Lineage based rom

So yesterday I'm trying to flash Pixel Experience custom rom on my Galaxy S7 Edge Exynos and I'm using floyd rom v4, so i flashed it and it's successful but i can't get passed google logo screen and it stuck for way too long. Then i tried to flash lineage os 17.1 and this time it got to Lineage logo but then it boot back to recovery. I tried adb sideload to install it that also didn't work, in the end i tried flashing floyd rom v5 and that worked beautifully. Can anyone help me as i really want to experience the Pixel experience. Oh and I'm using TWRP 3.4.0.

Yep, you format both, especially going from one ROM to another.
Data is your personal settings, app stuff etc,
System is the operating system (To put it simply).
If you have old ROM files leftover in the system folder, when you flash a new one they will conflict with each other.
It needs to be a clean install

folders to format when swapping from one rom to another (oneui samsung rom to aosp, or different aosp to aosp):
dalvik
cache
data
system
when you are on an aosp rom, and are updating the same rom to a newer version, you can normally get away without wiping data
