alright so i installed ryanza OCLF from the market. and had no problems with it. today i decided to factory reset my phone, just because i felt like my phone was getting cluttered. and i wanted to start anew anyway. so i factory reset the phone from the settings. and after the phone was done rebooting, i went to install the lag fix again. i rooted the phone and reboot. then i went to install the actual lag fix v1. it was marked in red and would not let me install it. it said u need to install the ext2 files blah blah. so i did that. and when the option to install the lag fix was still in red, i clicked on it and it said. there was already a lag fix installed. somewhere in the playlogos1 file. so what do i do now, can i delete the playlogos1 file? and take in mind that i rooted and installed the ext2 thing all from the OCLF app in the market. please help. thanks guys
I have the exact same problem.Did you solve it?
Same here.
Same here.
Ended up restoring from a nandroid backup I made immediately after I had installed the OCLF. Removed the lag fix. Now, OCLF allows me to remove the fix and the EXT2 tools.
I ended up clicking the restore animation and voila! The similar problem I experienced was solved.

What did this fix for you specifically? I tried this, and it still told me I had a lagfix installed, when I really didn't.
Has anyone else been able to rectify this without restoring?
Same her. Had to flash with odin
Is it just me? The OCLF has disappeared from the market.
I have to thank RyanZA here for providing that app. It make rooting my Captivate so easy.

Well again.... Im about to lose my minda because of this damn thing! Now I'm getting a fc every 5 sec... Process acore? My tab is essentially dead? Can't do anything author a fc, can't go into settings our anything... I want to smash this thing! I just got it working well and now this? Anyone know what that process is? I cam do anything with it now, cant load a new rom because I can't get into settings. Its just in an intimate loop of fc. The real disaster is im in idaho, where I got it as a gift, and I'm flying back to nc in the morning.. Can't take out back before I leave..
Anyone know anything about the fc?

If you can get ClockWork to run on boot .You might need to wipe data and reinstall the rom..Not much you can do when it is constantly Fc'ing
Well I don't have cw on the tab, its still stock.. I'm hoping I can plug into a pc, download it and get root that way? Then possibly load a new rom... Otherwise I'm screwed.
Think that will work?

Maybe you should restore it back to factory settings...

That will bring it back to how it was out of the box, then start over.
If there are still issues then possible hardware problems?
Had this issue, even after NV flash. I was able to get CW (even with the fc) on and wipe, and partition the sd to 2gb. That seems to have cleaned it up.
This forum is the greatest on the entire internet!
Glad to hear you got it working. Imo, your issue is probably the worst thing about running stock - if you get these FC's, there's really no fix unless you take the risk of using a mod.
I believe it's the same reason why Staples pulled the devices - too many returns due to FC's OOTB.
Yes, it's too bad they did not include the "easy" button to reset to stock. Even with the upgrade, it may be enough to ultimately kill off the device. With all of the recovery images on my laptop now, I can put humpty dumpty back with ease. It's good for me, I plan to watch for returns. I could use a couple more of these.
I got cw installed and vegan, the table works like I'd expect now! This thing is awesome! Thanks for the help.
A resolution
I had this same issue happen to me on a new ROM not factory. I couldn't get into settings either to do the contact wipe. But Titanium was installed on it and I was able to wipe the contact data through there. Just an FYI if anyone else runs across the same problem.
Thanks to you Snyper....I just picked up my tab after placing it down for 10 mins and saw this error. Just a quick search in the thread and there is the answer. Man this forum rocks!!!
Just happened to me running vegan 3
clearing contact info worked like a champ!
thanks guys
I have the same issue. But, I don't have CW installed, Titanium won't load up. How can I manually get the clockword APK file on there to attempt to install it?
Any other ideas?

Hi,
Having had this acore FC problem last night, I have a couple of questions:
1) In your post above, you seem to have thought that this only happens with stock TNT. But, in this thread, it seems like others that are not running stock TNT also encounter this problem. So, it this a potential problem with all ROMs, or just with stock TNT?
2) From reading through and other threads, one fix when it happens is to clear the Contacts and ContactsProvider data, either using Settings, if you can get to it, or using Titanium, if you have it. I'm assuming that what both of those steps do is to clear out the tables in SQLlite for the Contacts and ContactsProvider apps. Is that right? If it is, do you, or does anyone know the command lines that would do the same thing?
The reason for the latter question is that when I had the problem, I could still do adb shell. If there was an sqllite command I could have used to clear the problem, I definitely would have done that, instead of having to install CWM, re-partition, and re-flash stock 3452!
Thanks,
Jim
Hey guys!
Yesterday I rooted my Charge Using this method:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1122657
Used the CWR and Peanut Butter Jelly Time Kernal (non over clocking one)
I then used Titanium Back Up Pro to freeze the following apps:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1082588 - First Post
I also have setcpu installed, root explore, battery calibration and system monitor.
Today ... the phone restarted out of no where and now the messaging app wont launch. It just gives me the following error:
"process com.android.mms has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again"
Anyone have any thoughts or ideas of what I should do?
Cheers!
Ok now Gmail stopped as well
Ok guys ...
Tried some stuff...
Removed all programs I installed, also un froze all the bloatware. Restarted and still no luck.
I then re flashed the kernal and no luck and then flashed the over clock one and still no luck. At this point Im ready to do a full restore back to non-rooted
Anyone have any input before I do this?
USING Whatever rom you used to ROOT.
Reboot into recovery after unfreezing all apps. There's a batch for that.
Fix Permissions.
Clear Cache.
Reflash the rom you used to ROOT with.
Will replace the corrupted file assuming there is one since you did not say specifically what you froze.
Just a note: Most of that stuff that you guys are freezing, you don't have to. It does not run unless you call on it to run. Some of the stuff (I.E. My Files which is your file explorer) you don't want to freeze.
Thanks for the reply.
I pretty much did that last night but when I tried to do the Fix Permissions it asked me what size .... it was really weird.
I ended up doing a factory reset / data wipe as well as the rest and its working great now, only dumb thing on my part was I forgot to do a back up with Ti-Pro first so I had to reinstall everything (app wise).
Hi. This is a minor issue that may or may not warrant a new thread, but I wasn't able to find a similar post anywhere.
I'm rooted and S-off'ed with Revolutionary method. I am in the process of cleaning up all the bloatware on my phone. I am using TiBu, backing up every app before uninstalling, then performing NAND backup after verifying stability. At first after uninstalling several apps deemed 'safe', I encountered a problem where my phone would show two mt4gs splash screens then boot into clockworkmod recovery. I since narrowed it down to the Qik video chat app.
Has anyone else had a problem with uninstalling this specific app? Is it tied into the ROM that much where removing it would prevent me from booting up normally?
I don't recall removing qik ever cause any issue for me. If you are worried that removing certain apps might cause trouble, you can first try freeze them using apps like AntTek app manager before you remove them completely.
Or you can try the custom MT4GS ROMs on the developer forum. Those ROMs already removed most of the bloatware.
Would the fact that I reinstalled the stock rom from the repack on this forum?
*Would that cause a problem in booting?
Removing qik would not cause that issue. Lmfao.

Good method on the backups after each change, you now have an interactive log of your progress ~ everyone should experiment so carefully.
qik has never given me an issue that I can recall. I usually remove it with the other T-Mobile apps I don't want, like ecid.apk ( name ID ) for instance.
I freshly reboot the phone, uninstall all the T-Mo apps and all known supporting files/directories, reboot to recovery and clear dalvik cache and phone cache, then reboot the phone and let it rebuild cache.
After it boots and runs for about 5 mins, I reboot it again and let it run for about 2 minutes before doing anything else with it.
I don't think qik itself has anything to do with your issue at hand, it sounds more like it could be a bad install - maybe a corrupt download of the ROM. I don't think anyone else has reported this specific problem with the stock ROM for download here, but have you read through the threads for it?
I haven't used that ROM yet, so I can't speak for it from personal experience.
It could also be a bad Clockworkmod install. Again, maybe a corrupted download or...?
What version of CWM are you using? If you aren't using CWM 4.0.0.9, then i'd recommend upgrading to that and seeing if it solves your issue.
If you're up to it, though, re-download the ROM your using and install it fresh, before you upgrade CWM. If it was a bad download or install the first time, then that will fix your issue.
I still recommend upgrading to CWM 4.0.0.9 anyway if you haven't, even if a fresh ROM install solves your problem.
Thanks for the advice, Blue. I since then have just frozen the app and finished de-bloating the device. Right now I'm trying Undead's Senseless Rom, but if I go back to stock, I'll keep this in mind.
I recently was playing with one of those bloatware freezing apps. I froze only the obvious ones like buddies now etc. Something happened though. After I was done the icon tray was gone, and the home buton did'nt work at all. The phone was basically a brick because I couldn't get to any apps. So I did a factory restore. It did it and some of the apps were still there but crashed. So I uninstalled everything and reinstalled it back through market.
Now things kind of work but everytime I load some apps I get messages like it was installed for the first time even if I ran them before. None of the preferences are saved. If I leave them in RAM they remember but if I go to the task manager and flush RAM when I restart all preferences are gone again. Nothing is being written or saved to the system like it should be. The theme chooser in Astro file manager doesn't work at all.
What the hell is going on and how can I fix it? I am using the stock ROM and rooted.

dave,
if a factory reset didn't fix your problem,
you will have to flash your phone back to stock.
you can use gtg's ultimate unbrick - stock froyo
h8rift root and 3e recovery - stock froyo, rooted with 3e recovery or
adam outler's heimdall one click to gb leak, uckj4 stock.
you can find these in the dev superthread or some of my quick links

Hi,
Sorry I screwed that up. I couldn't get into the interface to do a factory reset. So what i did was flash back to stock with odin. After I did that the apps were still there but many didn't work. I uninstalled them and re-installed and they worked as stated with glitches.
Maybe I needed to flash to stock then do a factory reset to clean things up?

yeah, if you wanted to clean up everything, do a factory reset. Take off all the files and pictures you want from the phone including your micro sd card if you gave one.
Go to settings. Privacy. Factory reset.
Put phone into download mode.
Use gtg's ultimate unbrick if you want to go back to stock froyo. Then do the ota update.
I rooted my Samsung Galaxy Tab Plus 7.0 tablet with the tutorial from this site:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=24736900
It worked just fine for a couple days, then today I powered up the tablet and when I unlock it, it shows a problem loading all widgets, and within a few seconds the screen goes black, then proceeds back to the unlock screen. I unlock it again and this keeps repeating.
I didn't hack anything else, just installed superuser and a couple of other root apps. Really I haven't done anything else to cause this.
I don't even have enough time to go into settings and do a factory reset.
Any ideas? Perhaps in recovery?
EDIT - I did a factory reset in recovery. Is this going to fix it back to normal? I probably won't root ever again.
It probably has no affect, but what root apps did you install?
superuser, busybox, adfree, rom toolbox (which couldnt even detect my root but I never tried anything else)... those I can remember...
Did you install CWM and do a backup?
Im not sure what that acronym is for. I am new to all this. I followed the simple instructions in that tutorial and that was it.
It seems the issue is gone since my factory reset.
I am not sure if the root is still there however.
If there are extra steps to be done after a root it would help to have them with the tutorial....
A factory reset will remove root from your phone. Rooting it in and of itself should cause no issues like you are having it has to be something you installed and I would suspect ROM Toolbox. I'm not sure this app supports teh GTab+ or even has any useful purpose for us as we have no real ROMs to flash. It also contains a ROM Manager and if its the same one by Koush then it will defintely screw up our tablets.

I have done this ROOT like a million times (i'm a flash junkie)... testing the CM9 roms and back to stock again.. never had an issue with ROOTing the stock ROMs..
Suggest you download the latest firmware for your device and flash using ODIN and factory reset. Repeat the flash & factory reset a few times
Maybe you have the wrong clue of what your problem is. To root your tab is just a matter of put a binary called "su" on a directory on your PATH, usually /usr/bin and set it with proper permissions. This binary gives you superuser powers, but there's nothing on it or at least in the process that installs it that makes it interfere in anything without being called.
So accidentally you did anything that went wrong or any of programs that requires root did.

Sorry for taking a bit to reply, havent had the chance to get much PC stuff done lately.
Aaah so you think it was the culprit.... its wierd because when I tried to run the rom toolbox it shown that my tab was not rooted.
Then the problems started... as in my tab was rebooting itself and was stuck in a loop.
I did do the factory reset and then used a root checker and noticed it shown as no root access.
I have read that a factory reset does not remove root... are you sure it does completely?
I'd hate to go through another reset as I have set everything up again.
The only bug I have noticed so far with my tab is that the odd app (so far market and dolphin browser) at times I am unable to go back a page... the page just kind of flashes and stays on that page but does not go back. I end up having to restart the app.
Should I reflash with latest firmware and do a factory reset?
If so... I found this site, shall I use these instructions and firmware?
