I have got a pop up message "Sorry -The process com.android phone has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again." This pop up will not go away at all it appears straight after I press force close. This means I can not access any of the setting on the phone. I believe my SD may be corrupt, as when I try to system restore it just goes to reboot.
I have tried several things like trying to reinstall clockworkmod so I can get to the system restore but the phone just keeps jumping to the boot screen.
I have read in other threads about similar problems and use md5sum to check if I have the correct versions to install. I believe that many if not all data on SD is missing or corrupt. My phone is a brick and I dont have a clue where to start.
I have a orange San Francisco which was running japanese jellyfish 2.2.
All help gratefully welcome
Basically is there any way to wipe my SD card then install what I need onto it, then place into the phone to access the phones system restore to then reinstall every thing or at least access the phone to reset it.

ok I installed froyo 2.2 on my vibrant about 1 hour ago. I rooted it, I then deleted some bloat ware off the phone. I get an error message now, my phone vibrates all the time and then a message comes up saying "The application Dialer (process com.android.phone) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.
IT WON'T STOP DOING THIS. So if someone can tell me how to either restore the files that cause this error or restore the whole phone that would be great
I used to have this when i flashed my cappy with Odin. try flashing without your external sd, and sim card. Then if you use titanium backup do not restore system apps or data. After i did that my phone has been working fine. Hope it helped.
I get that message when I go into Settings>Application Manager and tap on the All tab. If I try this several times, the phone starts rebooting when I just try to go into Settings. I tried wiping cache in the stock recovery, but that didn't help? Any ideas?

Thanks. Wiping data is the same as a factory reset in that it will revert phone to original state when purchased, correct?

yes and it will reformat your internal sd, so back it up first.
OK, thanks for you help.
I've backed up my IMEI with adb nvbackup and QPST. The Synergy backup .zip doesn't work unless I'm rooted and unlocked, correct? Should I root / unlock and flash the Synergy zip before wiping data? Any chance rooting and unlocking will fix the 'settings has stopped' issue? I assume wiping data will cause me to lose root and unlocked state. Thanks for your help.

Same thing with me on Samsung GT-I9300 with Android 4.1.1
I came across this problem 2 times.
The first time it happened when I installed a game "Waking Mars". The game was working fine, I played for around 20 minutes and then wanted to check free storage left after installing. But when I opened Application manager swiping was very laggy and after a few (5-10) secs it crashed with "Unfortunately, Settings has stopped" error or just closed. At that time I didn't know that it was because of "Waking Mars" and started to delete unnecessery applications I installed that day and yesterday, but problem vanished only after uninstalling "Waking Mars". Also, while this app was installed, phone's screen was glitchy and became bleached (the glitch disappeared after rebooting), like when "Natural" screen mode is activated, but it wasn't. When I had tried to install the game again, the problem came back.
The second time it was because of "Galaxy On Fire 2" installed. Same problems appeared: crashing Application manager and glitchy screen.
Both games contained their data in ".apk" file, but another Waking Mars version with separate data (cache) caused the same problem too.
By the way, funny thing is that both games are about space
P.S.: Sorry for my English, it isn't my native language.
So I'm here at work.. working with my phone plugged in, charging, doing it's thing which shouldn't be much when I look over at it there's a bunch of "application x has crashed" and then reboots. Except it only sort of reboots. It sometimes hangs on the reboot, and if I reboot it 3-4 times it might come up into the OS but then all those messages appear again and it'll reboot itself.
I don't think I've installed anything crazy recently and blocked updates a long time ago when I got it, and am rooted with TeamWin recovery on it. I go into recovery and do a fix permissions and permissions and I get a bunch of errors to the effect of "e: xml error parsing file"
I do see that I have a nandroid backup from about 3 months ago that I might just have to try restore, but it's just weird that it seems like the phone just crashed itself. Can anyone think of any options I can try before I do that?
Also I don't think the phone has ever been updated since I got it as I froze/killed that process. Should I try upgrading to the latest? Are there big fixes/security issues that I should be concerned with that would make me want to upgrade?
Thanks for the help.

1. What did you do to that x applications? Did you just disable like location in the privacy guard?
2. Well, try to wipe the x application's data in settings -> app menu. If you can't navigate to there, try wipe all your data via recovery
3. Try to dirty flash your rom
4. Change into another rom
After a bunch of reboots, I was able to get the phone up but half my applications were deleted including Google Play store and most other Google apps including Inbox, Gmail, Hangouts. I might be paranoid, but maybe it was a Stagefright virus, but I have no proof that was it.
In the end I restored my nandroid from 4 months ago and it's now stable. But seriously I wasn't touching it when it started and then proceeded to destroy itself. Very strange behavior.
It appears my device (zte N9810) is not very popular as it didn't show up on any forums. I'm at my wits end with this phone. It started when I tried to switch internal to external SD. Something happened that went horribly wrong. I can't even reset my phone as I get error messages "Unfortunately, the process android.process.media has stopped, then I get a message that the process Gapps has stopped, I also can't access my folder files as it states Unfortunately, file manager has stopped. Every time I try to access something that might help me, I get some stupid as error message. I tried every thing I know of, is my phone junk now? Please if you can help me I would certainly appreciate it. Thanks Randy
Hello all, posted this question in a Facebook group and was recommended to bring it here.
I've got a Samsung Galaxy A42 that recently ran a software update and wouldn't properly restart afterwards. It would load up with the normal "Welcome" screen from Verizon, but would freeze during this part of the loading, shut off, then try to restart itself again, and would continue this endlessly until it ran out of battery. The only thing I was able to do was access the safety mode menu, but I've tried everything save for factory resetting to no avail. I attempted downloading a SM-A426U_CCT_A426USQU4DVL2_fac.zip file and installing it from an SD card, but I receive an installation failed message from the safety menu when I do, stating "E: Failed to read 6 bytes of data at offset," "E: Failed to read footer," "E: Signature verification failed," and "E" error: 21." I've also tried recovery software, but none of them recognize my phone being plugged into the USB socket on my computer, nor does my computer recognize it in this state.
I've since gotten a new phone, but I've got some pictures, documents, videos, and other things on this phone that I'd like to get off the A42 if possible before turning it in to my Verizon store, so any suggestions or advice would be very much appreciated. Thanks for reading!
Clear system cache.
Try to boot into safe mode.
If that fails you're probably boned... a data recovery service may be able to help.
Always redundantly backup critical data especially before playing with the firmware. If you fail to backup critical data redundantly it's only a matter of time before you lose it.
