I've been trying to apply substratum themes but when it restarts and it gets to the encrypted password screen, it says settings has stopped working. Does anyone know how to fix it?

I'm trying to set my lock screen to use a pin and out of the blue now, whenever I press to change the security method... it crashes telling me Settings has stopped working. Any way to fix this? Restarting didn't help and really hate to think of trying a Factory reset after just installing all my apps. Was hoping someone might have another idea before resorting to that.
Try to restore previous data partition.
Just restore data from nandroid backup then the lock screen issues may solved.
Requesting urgent help here.
After updating to the AT&T nav bar update, my phone seems to be stuck on a black screen with constant "System UI has stopped" popup dialogs.
I have tried running adb commands to uninstall Substratum which I feel is the culprit, but I recently reset my computer so my phone doesn't recognize it as a trusted device so I can't run any commands. I've also tried putting the phone into safe mode but the same black screen and "system ui has stopped" errors continue to show up.
Is there anything else I can do or will I have to factory reset?

I had the same happen after flashing to u1 and rooting but I was chalking it up to ****ing it up.
Can you take a logcat of your phone booting up and share it or at least the systemui exception you are getting? I want to see if it matches mine.

Dang sorry! I already did a factory reset.
Edit: It seems to have definitely been from a navbar mod. I installed the same mod I used to make my navbar smaller before I updated my phone and upon restarting the phone, I got the same black screen with the "SystemUI has stopped" message.
Somewhat relevant if someone checks on this thread for system UI issue and have Xposed installed.
Safe mode for xposed allowed me to peek at my device for a moment

Same issue! Applied update today and now can't even use the phone! System UI has stopped errors! Safe mode won't allow for the removal of overlays. Damn. I don't want to reset the entire phone! Any solutions!
Do you use systemui tuner?
Today, I noticed that I had once a pattern lock and the phone just opened on swipe.
So, I went to settings and the security was set to swipe (I didn't change it). I clicked on it and the settings app crashed. Everything else in settings is working fine. Its just this thing causing trouble.
So the phone is crashing when trying to change screen lock
Some things you should know
1. I had rooted my phone with magisk manager about two weeks ago
2. I had substratum theme installed and overlayed on almost all apps including settings
3. After the settings crashing problem, I uninstalled magisk and had a full unroot and updated the security patch with a stock boot image
4. Everything else is still fine, but the settings crashing problem persists
I uninstalled all the apps that required root access before unrooting
Now the phone is unrooted back to normal no theme overlays, but the settings is still crashing when attempting to change screen lock and the fact being that it automatically changed to swipe
Any help would be appreciated

Only tested in MIUI 9 oreo could work with nougat too
If your phone stopped working after applying a theme making your system ui stop and a black lockscreen you can easily fix it by doing what i found out as i didn't see anything on it anywhere else
Requirements
-unlocked bootloader
-TWRP recovery installed
Reboot to recovery then open file manager in advanced window
Go to /data/system/theme
Then delete the files with app names that stops
Like
com.android.systemui
Then just reboot and you're done ?
Nice
thanks, i wish i read this befoe reformatting my phone because of a theme i applied that made EVERYTHING dark and unusable. Xiaomi does fantastic hardware but the software side is pure ass.
Also forcing you to use their app to change themes is so greedy, at least make it work.
Same Problem with Miui 8
Hello i got this problem when installing third party theme on my redmi 3s with miui 8. But i dont have twrp installed and dont have unlocked bootloader. Can you help me?
I have clean flashed resurrection remix 6.0 (8.1.0) with stock Gapps on my OnePlus 2
Everytime i go to the apps menu in settings and the app permission menu it says package installer has stopped
I have tried wiping cache/dalvik
I have tried clean flashing with pico Gapps still it didnt work so back with stock
P.s. i have no problem in installing from play or from an unknown source and have no problem in providing new permission to the apps but i cant change them once selected
Unable to attach images using apps and cant post link before 10 posts
I have exactly the same problem.
Nexus 6p on RR6.0 (Oreo 8.1).
Can install apps. But cannot access permissions.
Getting this error message "package installer keeps stopping".
I have tried to clear package installer cache, even clear its data. But the same problem keeps cropping up.
This post has no solution to it. Just an affirmative to whatever you are facing. I wish somebody could help.
Experts, please tell us what information you need. and how to get it for you. I would be very pleased if I could get to the bottom of this frustrating problem. Thank you!
I just had same issue with my Mi Max running RR 6.0.
It started after changing the theme to dark in settings-display option.
I reflashed and things were ok.
As soon as I change theme to dark it started again.
I reverted back to automatic theme then everything is alright.
So i guess issue is with RR source.
My wife's Pixel with RR 6 just had the same issue. Setting the theme to automatic fixed the issue. Makes me wonder if the dark theme setting during night hours would make the issue appear only at night...
Edit: Posted a bit too soon. Set her clock to 10pm, watched the theme change, attempted to edit permissions... Package Installer stopped.
