I have also wiped davlik\art and cache from twrp. Also deleted and re added my google account. Playstore is up to date. Any other ideas. I have a twrp backup but i want to backup a few apps but cannot. Any ideas?

I could do that. My twrp backup is recent. I wouldnt lose much. I guess i more want to know why this happened, did i do something, and if a fix is possible? Does twrp still need to be booted from abd? I have been away from the technical threads for a little bit.
I restored and all is ok. If i figure out the cause ill mention it here.
Google photos is known to destroy your storage. I recently found (I really had to dig) that Google photos was the culprit on my friends S7 edge almost ten gigs of data.

Could also be the TWRP feature where this sometimes happens. On Nexus the fix was wipe and restore to full stock.

Hello guys, I use google Voice for my Voicemails. Ever since I got my Nexus 4 back in early December I couldn't get it to work. Even on stock without rooting.
I have tried many roms, and factory resets and as soon as I open the app it force closes.
Currently on Xylon ROM 16 and Franco Kernel 33
Gapps 20121212
Any help would be appreciated.
You've tried all the usual fixes right? Wipe app data, fix permissions, uninstall/reinstall the app? Also are you restoring the app & data with Titanium Backup (or something similar)? If you are, uninstall the app and go to the play store and install it from there. Are you restoring any system data with Titanium Backup (or something similar)? Not a good idea to restore system data especially if your changing roms.
In the same boat as OP. Haven't tried any custom ROMs yet. That was gonna be my next move, but it appears to be futile.
I've tried everything. Un install, install... Wiping data and such. And no I am not using Titanium Backup to restore.

Okay so, I hope this is temporary but I installed the apk with the version 0.4.2.54 and it's working with this one. I tried updating it via the play store and encountered the problem again.
I hope the next update will fix it.

Hi all, I changed the levels automatic brightness adjustments, then a call occurred and I aswered. When I closed the call, my defy+ rebooted immediately (no messages appeared) and then went in a bootloop: cyano glowing logo, then a single red LED flash, then it repeats.
Tried to clear dalvik cache, with no luck.
Is there a way to recover easily? Unfortunately I have no backups but want to keep contacts and application data. Not interested in keeping SMS's or photos.
Thank you
Contacts are usually stored with gmail account. I don't know about the app data though.

tried to wipe cache, dalvik cache, then install latest CM10 but ended up with the very same problem.
Should I only go RSD?

Make a backup of your /data in custom recovery, then wipe your /data partition (and cache/dalvik if you want), then reboot.
This will most likely get it to boot up again, then you can use Titanium Backup to restore your apps and app data. Do not restore your complete backup, because it most likely got corrupted, and do not restore System apps either.
You can restore SMS, by restoring Phone/Messaging Storage, and to restore Call Logs/Contacts, restore Contacts Storage. You might want to check the "Migrate System Data" checkbox in Preferences if it doesn't work at first.
Thank you, but I've already gone RSD. Good to know anyway. tnx

Sorry we couldn't find a solution in time.
For me, it's not that important; I full wipe at every sign of a bootloop. With the Desire I used to wipe all, including /system!
As long as you have a google account, you can reinstall the ROM and add your Google account at the beginning. That restores your previous setup of applications and appdata. Contacts are automatically synced and added to People.

Hello XDA Team,
I'm facing a problem right now and needs your help,
I rooted my Galaxy S4 with Kingo Android ROOT, after rooting I installed titanium backup and then I removed built-in appz mean gmail, earth, sbrower, which are installed in phone from the samsung. Samsung's official appz. So, I removed them via titanium backup, but while removing I suddenly removed play store app and I had not any backup of it. After then I regret over it. As a matter of fact, I wanted to remove blotware from my S4 but instead of removing them, I removed appz using titanium backup without taking any backup. But then I installed play store again, and when I opened it, it opens for a little while and then hangs and suddenly shows an error, "Unfortunately, Google play service has stopped".
Since then, Its been showing this error. I've installed many other version of play store but problem never solved. I un-root my phone as well and then checked but problem was same. I clear the cache, reset the preferences but nothing solve my problem. Everything else going fine and ok but whenever I opened play store it shows the error and return back to home screen. It was mine obsession that in this way I could remove blotwares but I didn't succeed. I hope XDA team can help me to retrieve my play store back as before.
I'm sure they'd help me.
Hey, I have the same problem with Nexus 5, any ideas?

If you haven't already got a recent backup, take one now.
Then you can reinstall firmware which will bring back the Play Store and everything else. Use Mobile Odin to retain root, or use desktop Odin and root once firmware is installed.
Give it time to catch up (it will probably need to download latest versions of the system apps) then, once it is all settled, you can restore your missing data from the backup.
If that doesn't work, repeat but do a factory reset too. You'll lose all your data stored on your internal memory so take copies if it is important.
**Try clearing the temporary of Play Store and Play Services.. ** Sorry didn't read all the way

Hello,
I just flashed the factory image of KitKat for my N4. Normally when I flash any kind of rom, once installed the phone kicks in and my apps begin to download thanks to google sync.
Unfortunately this time around it did not happen. Nothing downloaded apart from the pre-installed apps updated that come with the factory image.
Not sure why the apps never restored, does anyone know a way of forcing KitKat to download these apps?
I know I would be better off using Titanium Backup or something but I have always found the google sync method pretty reliable.

I'm assuming you turned on restore backups in settings?
Sent from my Nexus 7 (2013)
Hey,
In the settings, backup and reset, suddenly the feature to automatically backup is greyed out. I encountered this after I factory resetted and came back to an 11 day old backup. Logged in with Google account, check boxes are ticked, the feature to choose an account to backup though, is greyed out?
Factory reset didn't help, everything sync wise is on.
I'm on stock OOS 4.5.5, elementalX 1.04, Magisk root.
Should I flash something like Gapps file? I used this on a Galaxy S3 with AOSP ages ago.. But idk if it's safe to do in this situation.. Because factory reset isn't working the bug is within the stock Gapps I think.
Thanks!

Had the same issue, strange to say but after installed Google drive on the pc, connected the op5 and choose to backup it as suggest from Google drive on pc made the trick. Now I can see my phone backup and the phone update it regularly. Hope this could help. In any case weird, I never had this issue with any of my previous android phones.
