I have an HTC Sensation running stock ROM (Android 4.0.3 + Sense 3.6)
I can turn the phone on but the screen appears black only with the notification panel working fine.
The lock-screen doesn't appear, nor does the home screen, nor does the settings open up when clicked from the notification panel.
I had recently disabled unused factory applications which might be the cause. (Not sure)
I tried many links from xda as well as random YouTubers, and they said to first unlock the boot-loader, root the device, install clockworkmod and get a nandroid backup.
Is there anyway any way i can turn USB Debugging ON from recovery mode?
Or any other way I could fix my phone?
Or anyway i could extract all the internal data?
I need the data as its very important to me.
Please help.
Thanks.

I was given an Insight that was pre-rooted with Coredroid on it. The wifi worked then, but after I turned it off and tried turning it back on it says "error". I tried switching it to a different rom (gtg465x's Inspired Ace), and at first the wifi worked. After I tried turning it off and back on again, it didn't. Then I flashed it back to stock and did a factory reset and the same thing happened with the wifi again.
Is it possible that a file was modified and didn't go back to its original state?
Sounds like you might have a file or data corruption with your wifi drivers or files. Make sure you perform a full wipe, then reflash rom. There are zip files that you can run through clockwork mod recovery that will perform the wipe for you.

Also, if you are backing anything up using Titanium backup or any other backup software, never back up and restore system settings, as this tends to cause problems.
If after a full wipe and reflash of rom, and you are still having problems, you might have a hardware issue.
Do I have to re-root it it get clockwork to work?
I read somewhere that a reset through the menu isn't the same as hard reset through the boot menu. I've tried a few different combinations of powering the phone while holding the volume button down. But I can't seem to get the boot menu to come up.
The phone has to be rooted/S-off in order for you to install clockwork mod recovery. There are two methods of rooting. You can try either

or HTC Inspire/DHD Hack Kit V11 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=952352
In order for you to boot into the bootloader, you must disable fast boot. Go to either Settings > Applications or Settings > Power to disable fast boot. Once disabled, shut down your phone completely. Once off, hold down the volume down button and then press and hold the power button until it loads the boot loader. NOTE: Be very careful with what you do you in bootloader.
If I am unable to enable USB debugging, am I pretty well S-O-L? I can get my phone to boot to android recovery utility, but because I did a factory reset, usb debugging is disabled. I cannot seem to get a custom recovery installed. My friend said that I should be able to download a custom recovery and install it from a zip from the recovery menu; is this possible? I am getting really frustrated because I cannot get my phone up and running again, any help would be greatly appreciated.
Backstory:
I rooted my phone with no problems, started messing around with my build.prop to try to run a gameloft game. I made a back up of my original build.prop and stored it on my sd card. I replaced my entire build.prop with one from another phone and rebooted but my phone shows lg logo(at the suggestion of the same friend who has been trying to help), I hear the tracfone sound as if it is booting up, but my screen just remains backlit with no images. I am able to get into android recovery utility as well as the so-called emergency mode. However I cannot get the phone up and running again.
Hi,
I'm using an unlocked Nexus 5, and flashed as soon as the factory image was released. I used CF-Autoroot to gain root access.
The problem that I'm having is that the lock screen does not work. This means that when I lock the phone (power button), it just fades to black, but when I hit the button again (either immediately, or after a wait), I go straight to where I was, the lock screen does not activate no matter what I do. I've tried letting it time out, still no luck.
When I restart the phone, it shows the lock screen, but sounds like something is trying to unlock the phone, and the phone then unlocks and doesn't lock again. I've tried disabling all Device Administrators, with no luck. I tried a factory reset and then a re-flash followed by another factory reset, and the problem still persists. I've also tried toggling Smart Lock on and off, still no change.
If I go to the security settings and re-select a Screen Lock mode, then the lock screen shows up again, but after I unlock, it goes away never to return.
This has been extremely frustrating, since Smart Lock was one of the features I was most looking forward to. Does anyone know what could be causing this?
The current Root apps that I use are:
1. SuperSU (obviously) 2.23 BETA
2. BusyBox Free
3. AutomateIt Pro
4. Greenify
5. Power Toggles
6. AdAway
7. Titanium Backup
Another note: After the factory-reset, wipe, flash, factory-reset that I did, I restored all non-system Apps and data with Titanium Backup. Just putting this here in case you guys know of any app that causes this problem.

Mine fixed itself after I manually installed the latest Google Play Services apk. Maybe try that and see if it works for you...
Im on TWRP recovery, and in the recovery menu i accidentally wiped internal sd, and now when i flash a new Rom, after it installs an i get through the typical new phone start up process, i get a message that says, Unfortunatley system ui has stopped, and another one that says htc dot view has stopped. And then when i get to my home screen i have no Status bar or navigation bar (soft keys) and my homescreen is just a black background. I can still access my apps but cant go back because there is no soft keys. I went into my settings, to my apps, and when i went to system ui to try clearing the cache its greyed out and saying "computting" forever. What do i do?

I got the same problem too on my lenovo A316i :crying: pls. help!!
I had the same issue when using TWRP; took all of the steps mentioned below without success. I then flashed stock recovery and wiped - this fixed it
If system ui stoped and your phone running just copy the apk of system ui and replaced it system ui apk use a root explorer or every thing go to device/system/app then find the system ui apk then replaced it or device/data/app lib/and find again the apk and then replace it .......... If your system ui stopped and u cannot used your phone follow this steps go into 'stock' recovery mode and choose wipe data/factory reset that's it
My HTC one M8 sprint all of a sudden, after installing xposed came with this error: "Unfortunately, System UI has stopped. I cannot shut it down and my battery is inbuilt. I cannot even reboot. in fact, i cannot do anything. please help, what is or are the options I have. I am desperately in need of help. Thanks to any God sent in advance.
So I had previously disabled the stock launcher and then last night tried using the ultra power saving mode, forgetting that it requires the touchwiz launcher. My phone is unrooted FYI. It's currently stuck on the Verizon splash screen. I tried safe mode, clearing cache, rebooting from recovery, etc.
Is there anyway to... 1). Recover data before factory resetting? 2). Push the launcher.apk via ADB or something to stop the boot loop? 3). Restore system data without overwriting user data? 4). Root (while preserving knox) from my mac while the phone is off/recovery/bootlooping 5).Get it to boot normally, not in UPSM?
Generally my phones are always rooted, so I forget what options there really are on un-rooted phones.
Thanks

i have the same problem on my ecoo e04, i 've frozen "Catapult Launcher" and it crashed and reboot.
Now it doesnt boot. It arrives to the point of the end of the boot animation and then it stops (screen freezes).
Is there a way to install a launcher, maybe via sdcard (i mean, "autoinstallation" ).. or enable usb debugging .. or access the userdata to backup it .. or access the internal disk to manually de-froze Catapult ?
recovery menu is in chinese lang, it only allows a total wipe of emmc. ..
