7t Pro McLaren here (tmo). Phone updated while I was asleep last night and today I cannot pull down the notification drawer in any Google app (weirdly specific). And play store won't open. How can I revert back to the last OS version?

Try a cache wipe and see if that helps. I was having some choppy performance issues after the update so I wiped cache and all issues are gone now. And I must mention after the update and cache wipe battery life seems to be incredible.
Can you remind me how to do that on this device? I booted into recovery but the only option I saw was "wipe data and catch" and I was scared to choose that option.
Nevermind I got it, all good. Cheers mate

I have 2 Incredibles, mine, and my daughter's. I had hers initially, then gave her that one when mine showed up. On mine, I immediately flashed it to the first leak and 2.05 Radio OTA per instructions here, and it worked great.
On hers, I forgot to do a erase all before flashing it, so it still had all of my old data and apps on it. After flashing, I expected to see the screens revert back to their default state, but they didn't. My custom icon placements were still in place on the home screens. The icons for 3rd party downloaded apps were generic android icons. Opening any 3rd party app would cause a force quit. I did an erase everything, didn't fix it. If I went to the market, apps would show as not being loaded, so I loaded them, same results. I then uninstalled and reinstalled, and the apps all worked again.
So, last night, I reverted both phones. Mine went smooth as butter. Hers did the exact same thing as before. So, I went through all the actions, and got it all working again, no problem. Lastly, she went to change the desktop pattern to a picture, and rebooted the phone (not sure why), but it hung on the first "HTC Incredible" boot screen. Pulled the battery and put it back in, no change. Pulled it, let it sit for about a minute, put it on A/C and put the battery back in, and it came back up as expected. When it booted though, it has gone nuts again. All changes since the flashback were lost, icons were generic, I had to uninstall and reinstall everything.
The thing to note here is that once I get it all set up, it works fine, no problems. All I can figure is the fact that I didn't clear everything before the first flash has caused something in memory to become corrupt, and and isn't getting purged when I do an erase all.
So, does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks,
Doc
did you do a hard reset?

sounds like you need to clear the davlick cache too. just selecting full wipe isn't always enough.

Ok, what's a "hard reset" as opposed to clearing everything via the Settings -> Privacy -> factory data reset?

And how does one go about clearing the davlick cache?
Thanks!

I did the same thing when I flashed mine. I just went back into clockwork and did a format on every choice including the cache and did a reinstall and everything was stock.
Thanks, I'll give it a try!
I'd still like to hear from seanhassars and jdkoreclipse on how to perform the options they suggested.
Thanks,
Doc
Hard reset is the clear storage option in the bootloader.
And you clear dalvik cache in the advanced menu in recovery.

I'll be redoing the phone tonight so will take all of this into account.
Thanks a lot to all!

A bit of a weird one.
Updated to CM12.1 Atares ROM :good: I have been running CM12 ROMS for ages and updated to the 12.1 via the OTG in settings and using Nightlies.
I have only noticed problem yesterday and going back to CM12 just causes more problems, also going back to the previous Nightly doesn't help
I cannot access Google Play Store. 'Check your connection and try again' All WiFi settings are correct etc... even when using mobile data, I still cannot get access.
My GT1905 has disappeared off my devices list on the play store too! I've also noticed that Google+ has disappeared off my phone too, but more interestingly my SUBCARD app has gone too! (not sure if others have gone but I noticed this as I like a subway :yum: ) But... if I go to the playstore on my phone (or PC/tablet etc...) via chrome it says it's installed! I cannot access it via my apps list.
So other than doing a wipe of my phone if there any other suggestions?
Did you perform a full wipe before updating?
You cannot just flash it over an old CM 12 you need a fresh install.

Well I would of done if it hadn't come via the OTA updates, never noticed it went from CM12 to CM12.1 until Monday/Tuesday last week.
Will do a full wipe later on today and see what happens.

Custom rom OTA's are not like official rom OTA's. Doing a wipe is still recommended. Anyway, force stopping google play and clearing app cache and data might help you in this case.
Had similar issues on other roms, even though I wiped before flashing.

I tried clearing all data and cache and also force stopping. WhisperPush kept crashing too.
Wiped the phone and started again, all sorted now with CM12.1 latest nightly build
Cheers for the advice guys.
I bought my Galaxy S7 Edge about a month ago and I've been loving it, however today I went to use a camera app from the play store (that I've been using fine for almost as long as I've had the phone) and it failed to open.
No error message.
I thought that was weird so I opened Snapchat.
Camera wouldn't load.
I then opened the default camera app and I got a simple "Camera failed" error.
I did some reading and couldn't find much, but read some suggestions to clear system settings or remove the SD card and reboot. Another suggestion was to wipe the system and dalvik caches from recovery. I would do this if I were capable, but I currently have TWRP recovery, which normally wouldn't be a problem, but TWRP currently can't get permission to write anything unless I wipe my phone, which I'm far from ready to do.
I've deleted the camera app from the play store. No dice.
I've cleared all system settings. No dice.
I've removed my SD card and rebooted. No dice.
So I essentially have two questions here:
Most pressing, how could I go about getting my camera to work?
If only through recovery, how do I return to stock recovery so that I'm actually capable of doing anything in it?
EDIT- I just discovered that I'm unable to turn on the flash, as it's being "used by Camera". I feel like that could be important.
Not saying your problem is the same as mine, but My camera just quit working, hardware issue but my selfi cam worked.... I tried all the online tutorials even went as far as restoring to stock, nothing brought it back.
Anyways it happened about three weeks after I purchased it . I bought it from Costco so it was able to exchange it

I have no way to know if it's back cam only, as the camera app is nonfunctional (cant switch cameras) despite being able to open (Can't switch in Snapchat either). I have yet to try flashing to 100% stock or factory resetting, and am hesitant because I have a lot of data on the phone to backup. I also got it from a Canadian carrier and considering the custom recovery currently on, I'm also hesitant to send it in right away.
Exact same problem here about to backup and reset will reply with results. Have you tried running the camera app from safe-mode?

It did not work... I did a backup, wiped cache, and wiped data/factory reset the device. I am thinking it maybe time to call in an RMA.

In a couple hours I'll back up my data and do the same. Will let you know if it resolves my issue or not.

Update here. The factory reset didn't fix mine either at least I got TWRP working now. Not that that matters if I end up having to send it in.
Hi I have a question so the b20 update has my Facebook gallery and kik and Instagram forceclosing when when I open galleryin apps.. I updated the phone Wednesday,everything was working fine until Friday my phone died so I put it on the charger and I turned it on and I came back to it and it said "your phone is successfully updated"! I was like hmmmm then I realize I try to comment a pic in a comment but the facebook gallery said no video or photo in gallery ,same with Instagram and kik etc.. I was curious if it had a update but got interrupted when it died and I did not realize it had a update... What can I do to fix this? I went to apps in settings and force stop and clear cache and reboot. Then I went into recovery and wipe cache and still nothing.. My phone isnt rooted, it is bone stock. I was on 20A in September now Oct I'm on 20B that's been causing problems. My last opt options is to back up everything and factory restore it but yet still not sure if it will fix my problem.

Oh, you've downgraded 9.0.0 to 5.1.7 and then updated to 9.0.2
That isn't a good idea... Anyways, let's see how we can help you.
Is your wife's phone rooted and has unlocked bootloader and TWRP? Anything?

Nope its not rotted
And if there is a way to avoid rooting would be better

So it also means the bootloader is NOT unlocked and you don't have a twrp recovery installed?

I'm sure the issue is cause of down and updating in a dirty way. You can maybe try again install 9.0.0 then 9.0.2
Otherwise a factory reset is the next option you should consider cause there's no way to wipe separate partitions or backup anything with stock recovery and without root or external help.
