[Q] Aaaggghhhhhh!!!! androidprocess.acore stopped unexpectedly

Ok, this is beginning to drive me crazy. Yes, I have searched the forum but have found very little in the way of answers. The only time I get this error is when trying to add a contact. What bothers me most is that adding a contact will work fine for a few days after clearing and flashing and then out of nowhere I get the failure again. I've tried every solution out there to repair the issue but it always comes back. Is anyone else experiencing this on the continuum? If you have but have gotten it correct could you please share your solution? I'm running adrenalyn's EC07 clean ROM after an Odin install of the SCH-I400-EC07-FROYO-REL-PRODUCTION ROM. I'm using Touchpal dialer but it doesn't matter if I use touchpal or the stock Touchwiz dialer & contact manager to add contacts. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Ray

i havent had any add concact troubles but i would try this:
uninstall touchpal
reboot into cwm
clear cache and dalvik
reboot.
see if twcontacts works again... just gotta trouble shoot from there.
i had a similar episode with go sms, it was texting peole that i never texted before.
also, when u flashed ec07clean over stock did u wipe cache and dalvik?
if you want to start by reflashing, i would back up, flash ec07.tar in odin. enter stock recovery, clear cache, apply update to enter cwm, clear cache there as well as dalvik, instal ec07clean.zip, wipe cache and dalvik again (i know lol) boot, reboot, reboot into cwm, advanced restore data only. reboot
that will give you a very clean reinstall of rom, plus keep your data upto date with when you did your new backup
now like i said, this is what I would do, not making you. and if you dont think its possible for you. please dont

Thanks for the reply. I'm clearing the caches again after removing Touchpal. I suppose that can't hurt. I did do a full clear before and after both the stock ROM and the clean ROM. We'll see what happens. This is super frustrating. I don't add contacts that often but it really stinks when you can't. Thanks for the suggestion. I'll keep you posted.
Ray

Still failed after clearing caches. I really don't want to re-flash AGAIN. It's almost as if there are updates to something that occur a few days after re-flash and re-install of my apps. For now I guess I just have to log into my google contacts and add them that way. I had mentioned an issue with my bluetooth last week. I thought I had cleared up the issue but it seems to be creeping back. Quirky phones these are!

A logcat of the error would help give a idea of what's going on

Well, here ya go. This is the error log. Hopefully we can figure out what the "add contact" issue is. There are 2 failures in this log. Thanks for having a look.

i've had this issue on other android devices during frequent flashing.... usually corrupt data... wipe data and rebuild will fix it.

You're right, wiping all the data and re-flashing does work...and then it happens again. The questions are, what causes the corrupt data? can it be fixed? and what can be done so that it does not get corrupted again? Without these questions answered we just run around the same circle. I've wiped and re-flashed six times now and each time it reverts to the process stop and now way to add new contacts. Editing contacts does work however.
Peace,
Ray

Hey Josh, thanks for the suggestion. That is the process that I've used the last 2 times I started from scratch. I'll try it again this weekend. I could understand this happening if I was restoring backups but I've not restored in a couple of months.
Thanks again,
Ray

Hey, just poking my nose in the Continuum section as my wife still has hers.
With the data corruption issue (on your contacts), are you restoring them from either Verizon, or a backup? If so, more than likely there is a corrupt contact in the backup and that is probably what is hosing your contacts. Or, at least hosing the ADDING part of the contacts list.

Settings has stopped...

I'm unable to access my 'settings' menu. - Settings has stopped...
Many posts say a factory reset will not fix the issue so can someone point me in the direction on how to re-flash this phone before it gets given away or thrown in the trash...
Rooted, no new apps etc so not sure what broke it.

Pretty sure they only have images for the dev edition

There is an o2 image here
and some random one here which I can't ID.
At this point I don't really care what happens to this device now so if you can point me in a direction to a good guide I'll give one of those a go

Where did you find this image?

Alright this let's try flashing the the first image you linked, do you have TWRP?

Yep that's all installed & working - I was actually going to try the newer image as the o2 one appears to be older than the image I have on the phone now... But I'm open to your wisdom.
As an aside - If I can get another identical phone could I pull the image out of that for re-installing on mine at a later date ? (I may be able to borrow a device next week for a few days) Otherwise I'm up for trying this today.
I was going to follow these instructions but only doing the;
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.3
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.4
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.5
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.6
mfastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.7
part as it looks like it the OS thats broken rather than anything else. It would be nice If I didn't have to kill all my user data but I'm not that worried if I have no choice.
The phone works in fastboot and I have ADB working on my PC - I also now have mfastboot as I'd seen people hinting that Moto users should use that rather than just fastboot.

You found a newer one? I would flash the newer image as it maybe fixed the issue, not sure what you meant about the indentical phone part, if your asking if you can flash the Moto G4 play image on another device that's not a Moto G4 play the answer is no, and for the instructions you found, I have never seen it

So the 2nd image link I posted here is slightly newer than the current phone version - I was going to try that as it appears to match in so fas as its a retail version rather than a carrier specific version (my devide was retail)
What I meant by extracting an image from another phone - I can get access to an identical non rooted stock retail image moto g4 play next week - so figured there must be a way to extract the system image then load it back onto this broken phone.
Re logcat - standby I'll edit this post in a few min once it's booted up & I've tested it. I was looking for logs but I'm even newer to this Android stuff than you are!

Wait a minute, you got a Verizon version and rooted it? Werid, we yeah I would use the 2nd image if it was newer, and do you mean to get a whole other Moto G4 play just to get the image? I wouldn't really do that

I would suggest the app called logcat reader, it's a simple app hold down to access a menu

I know your settings is broken but please make a backup before you start flashing anything!

No, no - this is a UK Retail version XT1604. I have nothing to backup to be honest - and even if I end up on an old software/radio etc (o2 build) then fine - If you want me to backup from inside TWRP then I can, but I don't see much point backing up a recovery image I have, a system image which is clearly broken, cache which is empty anyway and a few user settings. I can decide that later.
Based on what you see do I just need to flash the system.image files in turn ? or do I need to flash all the other bits as well (Everything else on the phone works I should point out besides being able to access settings)

Alright, I understand it's your choice but there's a chance the situation might get even worse, luckily you have TWRP though, anyways i would think that flashing the second image you posted would already have everything, but before you do that checkout this video
It seems like he does a lot stuff not needed. But it's not going to hurt right?

Only just sitting down to watch the vid - standby. It's also dinner-time

Yum! ?

Ok, so the video is the same instructions as here but rather than using mfastboot just regular fastboot.exe
I'm in the process of taking a full backup via TWRP right now.
I'll update this post shortly.
**1**
That's why I was planning on not touching the radio side of things... I'll consider a rom if none of this works - at the end of the day long as I can get into boot loader its fine.
My plan is to flash everything except the radio stuff, and the recovery image

Gotcha! Perhaps follow the article, people do say that some things like there data or wifi signal doesn't work while other people say it works perfectly, I wish the best of luck, also if this does fail, maybe consider a rom?

Before I commit to this; does anyone know the difference between the MIP and the MIPS firmwares ? Is 1 for the dual SIM version? If so which one as this is only a single SIM

Er, not sure, sorry I didn't respond, xda labs didn't send me a notification

Any news?

Yes! - Sorry was out. We are back in business.
I ended up doing a full re-flash using this image and these instructions as a guide. But rather than mfastboot - use just fastboot and inside the .zip you will find a file called flashfile.xml - open that file in a browser and it will show you all the steps that firmware requires and bits to do. Use the website as a guide only.
The software installed;

Managed to re-encrypt then root the device, I'll sort out basic apps & bits later so I can build a base config to backup through TWRP. Once I've done that I'll start stripping out some of the junk (knowing I have a working backup)
It would appear for the time being the device is safe from any nasty incidents or the bin... I'm also a bit more happy about flashing the device now as well.

(TB-8504x) Lenovo tab 4 8: Fix facelock ("Face Unlock") crash

Lenovo Tab 4 8 - Fix facelock crash (Related gist: https://gist.github.com/KreAch3R/734b1086c928ab8ceeafaf3e4dbd8c33)
I noticed that a Lenovo tab 4 8 (tb-8504x) on the latest stock image as of today didn't have a working face unlock ("facelock"). When it was time to add a new face, it crashed with the following log:
Code:

The FIX
1. Download libfacenet.so from Open-GApps [Direct link to the binary I used].
2. Follow the instructions from here and download @dywersant 's magisk-remount.zip module from here.
3. Boot into Android with a RW /system using the module. You can confirm with:
Code:
su
cd /system
touch testfile.txt
If the command succeeds, you have a writable /system.
4. Go into the lib64 folder (/system/lib64)
5. Make a backup of the original libfacenet.so file:
Code:
cp /system/lib64/libfacenet.so /sdcard/libfacenet.so.orig
BE CAREFUL: Don't make the backup inside the /system partition, as it can be lost after reboot!
6. Mount the specific file as RW
I don't know how or why, but Lenovo seems to have made every lib file a different ro mount point/partition. So:
Code:
mount -o rw,remount /system/lib64/libfacenet.so
is needed, otherwise you end up with "read only file system" error (even when the whole /system is RW!)
7. Push to /sdcard and replace the file
Code:
cp /sdcard/libfacenet.so /system/lib64/libfacenet.so
Now, try to add a new face again. It should work!
--------------------------------------------------------------
Debugging
If anyone is interested to know how. You always start from the log. Let's disect this line:
Code:
java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: dlopen failed: cannot locate symbol "_ZN6google8protobuf5Arena15AllocateAlignedEPKSt9type_infom" referenced by "/system/lib64/libfacenet.so"
This tells us that the app com.android.facelock launched and called the library libfacenet.so which referenced a method/symbol/whatever named _ZN6google8protobuf5Arena15AllocateAlignedEPKSt9type_infom but that method doesn't exist inside whatever should include it, so "dlopen" failed and we got ourselves the "java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError" error. Let's sum up:
1. The app that crashes is com.android.facelock
2. One related .so lib is libfacenet.so
3. There is another one, unnamed, that should contain _ZN6google8protobuf5Arena15AllocateAlignedEPKSt9type_infom but it doesn't.
Googling about "_ZN6google8protobuf5Arena15AllocateAlignedEPKSt9type_infom" brings up some libprotobuf related results. This is good enough. Grepping through /system/lib64 shows up that there are two .so there:
Code:
libprotobuf-cpp-full.so
libprotobuf-cpp-lite.so
Doing the same in a working pixel image produces the same files. But obviously Facelock works on the Pixel but not on this tablet. We need a way to differentiate them (remember, pixel is on a Oreo base while this is Nougat).
Reading this StackExchange post, we find out about the "readelf -a -W elffile" command. Give this a try and you should see that a lot comes up. Next step, grepping through this file dump.
Lenovo libprotobuf-cpp-lite.so:
Code:
$ readelf -a -W libprotobuf-cpp-lite.so | grep _ZN6google8protobuf5Arena15AllocateAlignedEPKSt9type_infom
$
Pixel libprotobuf-cpp-lite.so:
Code:
$ readelf -a -W libprotobuf-cpp-lite.so | grep _ZN6google8protobuf5Arena15AllocateAlignedEPKSt9type_infom
000000000004fb10 0000005700000402 R_AARCH64_JUMP_SLOT 0000000000022254 _ZN6google8protobuf5Arena15AllocateAlignedEPKSt9type_infom + 0
87: 0000000000022254 216 FUNC GLOBAL DEFAULT 12 _ZN6google8protobuf5Arena15AllocateAlignedEPKSt9type_infom
Bingo! So we confirm that the libfacenet.so is trying to call an upstream method (probably), one that isn't bundled inside the libprotobuf-cpp-lite.so of the Lenovo stock image.
So now we know, it's a problem of version incompatibility. There are two things to try:
1. Replace libprotobuf-cpp-lite.so with a version that contains _ZN6google8protobuf5Arena15AllocateAlignedEPKSt9type_infom
2. Replaced libfacenet.so with a version that doesn't contain _ZN6google8protobuf5Arena15AllocateAlignedEPKSt9type_infom
Method No. 1 didn't work, while it got rid of the "java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError" error (confirming the diagnosis), it produced more .so related crashes, so I assume there were a lot more code that was incompatible. But Method No.2 worked as a charm!

Camera FC in Android 9 PIE Roms
