Hello!
Two days ago I rooted my phone thanks to this forum. Everything was alright at first, but then I deleted some applications and I think one of them is causing the issue - probably Google Quick Search Box, or some other Google application (deleted a few that seemed innocent enough). I deleted also Facebook, Youtube and Twitter application (all of these were using the internet when the Internet is on and I didn't like it because it is spending me money - that's the reason I ended up rooting my phone).
The problem is when I try to add a new contact or access a new one, I see the android.process.acore ended unexpectedly error. I can see this error also when I do some other applications (Talk for example - not that I need it, just for information). Also, I cannot access the Market application - shows white screen for a second or two and then hides away.
I tried unrooting my phone, removing the battery and sd card out and then putting them in again, doing a hard reset through the buttons (I can't access the Privacy menu on settings also - same error).
I tried updating the software through LG PC Suite, but of course, I got: You have the newest version, update is not required. And of course there is no repair option, which is dumb, but who asks me.
Anyway, if I add some apk files to my sd card through the PC is there any way I could instal them on the LG Optimus Me phone? Since I wiped out my phone and have no access to Market (tried openning it through Browser and then logging in, selecting an application and click on Instal button - nothing happens), I don't have for example a Root explorer or some other type of exploring application on my phone, nor I have a Barcode scanner application.
Any ideas??
Some new info, thanks to my husband's Samsung Galaxy Gio, through bluetooth succeded to install Astro File Manager. Now I have access to the sd card. Now I am going to try to find what should be on the android 2.2.2 by default and install it. Hope this would work.
Just to say - still haven't solved the issue with the phone, but I tend to go around it. Hope I will find a solution one day, though.
Maybe you could try downgrading it or do a factory reset via recovery mode
Guys I am really struggling with this phone. I have wasted 2 entire workdays now trying to get it how I like it. Yesterday I rooted with motofail2go and ran into an issue with usb only recognizing as charge only. Turns out I had to enable debug mode, turn off the phone, turn it back on, and then disable debug mode. Fixed the problem at 130 PM today.
At 145 PM today after doing this fix and running an ap called reverse tether my mobile data has disabled itself and I cannot get it to turn back on. Wifi is fine. Like I said I ran into some problems with debug mode switching settings around even when outside of debug mode and I cant for the life of me figure out how to reset my data connection.
Key fact: Even though the phone shows no data, when it boots up gmail always pops up with hundreds of new messages that I havent had the time to check nor did I choose to open the gmail ap. Its like gmail can still access the internet but it is disabled for me or any other function. For all I know it could simply be chached messages showing up automatically without checking for or recieving new messages.
I have done a soft reset and cycled airplane mode a few times. I have cycled thru the available network options and still nothing.
I am really having a hard time enjoying this phone as much as I would like to becaue of these weird issues. This is my first Motorola and I must say I am not impressed. And then it is sad coming to the XDA photon Q forum and there is no organization, no stickys, no useful threads hilighted, its like no one even cares about this phone. I have no clue what I am even doing when rooting, unlocking, bla bla whatever but at least the other forums are well organized and thoughtfully moderated. I dont even t think the mods here have the Photon...
Rant off... TIA
I seemed to have all kinds of random issues and problems when I first got this phone rooting and applying the first few mods, but...knock on wood they all worked themselves out and it's been solid.
A few weeks ago during that time I too experienced the loss of data issue. I was on wifi all day while at work tweaking & playing with the phone, then when I left work,...bam,..no wifi. Reboot, nothing. Airplane on/off, nothing. Tried updating the PRL, weird thing is I could watch it turn the 3G on to "phone home" to Sprint, then it would say the PRL was current and the data would be back off. WTF? Haha..
Surprisingly, what ended up working for me was the SprintZone app.
I opened the Sprint Zone app.
Scoll to the bottom and in the lower right there's a "Help" tile.
Scroll to the bottom of that next page and at the very bottom it says Update Profile.
After hitting that, I had my data back and haven't had the problem since that one time.
I wanted, so badly, for this to fix the issue. I just knew it would... but it didnt. I updated my PRL and Profile by wifi along with the Sprint Zone update you mentioned but still nothing, only wifi.
Can Sprint do any sort of reset?
Is there any way that Moto or Sprint have an auto off switch installed in the phone or the programming that is triggered by something like tethering without a tethering plan? Or rooting without using the Moto unlock key via motofail2go?
On a more general note can someone please tell me how to transfer files from my internal storage to the SD card? My internal memory is literally all used up by 2 games and my usual apps... i keep getting the low volume space warning popping up. Pretty ridiculous for a brand new top shelf phone.
I don't think it will make a difference, but make sure you are NOT on wifi when you try the SprintZone update.
I wasn't connected to wifi when it worked for me. Probably separate causes behind our similar issue, so what worked for me may not for you, but worth a shot.
I found out what it is:
Why did my mobile internet stop after using this app?
It has been reported very rarely that mobile internet stops working after using the app. This is due to the Appear as 3G feature.
If the 3G option is causing you problems, you can turn it off in the settings menu.
If this rare problem happens, to restore your device's internet, go to Mobile Network settings > Acess Point Names (APN) and choose Reset To Default from menu, or manually add your carriers APN.

Can anyone tell me how to reset my APN on the photon Q?
To transfer files from your internal sd card to the external sd card you can use a file manager like Astro or es file manager. I use es file manager personally, it has all the features of root explorer in a free app with easy to use interface. The internal storage is marked as the /sdcard directory and the external sd card is marked as /mnt/external1
In es file manager just enable the root options in settings and navigate up one level from the /sdcard directory to find the /mnt directory.
The built in file manager will do it too, but the options are limited and interface is clumsy.

I have a sprint samsung galaxy note 2 that is rooted running macksrom 5.0 and i started having this problem. the problem is i can call from my phone when it is not on wifi but the 3g/4g isnt showing up top in the status bar i cant access the internet unless im on wifi. when i go into settings and click on mobile networks it acts like it is going to do it then it hangs at a black screen and a box pops up and says unfortunately, the process com.android.phone has stopped ive tried cleaning caches and fixing permissions, nothing helps, there is also another thing that pops up and says error #89 unknown error. it also says when i click on stuff, use touchwiz or xperia to perform this action. Always or just once.) I bought this samsung gn 2 online everything was already done to it. I think whoever installed the macks rom must have left the the touchwiz on it. Because it keeps asking me when i do things, perform action using touchwiz or xperia I also noticed that i have goomanager on it. Can i use the goomanager to reflash this phone? If so can someone give me information on how to properly do it. i also read something about mobile odin. Which one would be the easiest to use?
I received an OTA Update in early to mid May. I am now forgetting which version I received at that time. ( I forget as I have done so many downgrades/upgrades/factory resets in my troubleshooting the last month!) Up until these issues, I've never rooted or flashed a ROM, or unlocked boot loader or anything. My N5 had always been completely stock.
First Issue
It all started with just the sim card. I get "no sim card" message, even though it was in there. This was my original SIM card and I had never ejected it since I bought it new. I found I could turn it off, pop it out and back in, and boot it again. Sometimes it will see the sim card again. It may take 20 times, but finally work.
I naturally got a new sim card, as well as confirmed said sim cards worked in other phones. My wifi and bluetooth were working fine at first. Working with google support, they recommended a factory reset to fix the sim card issue. Immediately after the factory reset, my bluetooth would no longer turn on nor show a MAC address. At this point, my wifi was fine.
Second Issue
In addition to the sim card slot issue, now my Bluetooth no longer works! Around this time, I received another OTA update, this time it was 5.1.1 LMY48B. I had hoped it would fix the issues, but no dice! I start reading up on the XDA forums as I am determined to start rolling back to see if this will fix anything. I unlocked the boot loaded, rooted, etc following the threads on XDA
Third Issue
I do all sorts of flashing to hammerhead-krt16m_4.4 to hammerhead-ktu84p_4.4.4 to hammerhead-lrx21o_5.0 to hammerhead-lmy48b_5.1.1 . On the final flash back to 5.1.1 my wifi now no longer works!!!!!!!!!!! It is stuck at wifi turning on and no MAC address shows. It also seems my cell data is very very slow now!
After many calls to google, I think I finally succeeded in getting a “ticket routed up”. My phone is from the play store around 10/31/2013. They keep pushing I am out of warranty. I attempt to ask for a refurb N5 without luck so far. I am not very confident anything will come from google. This being my only handset now, it is just not an option to send this to LG. My current state is my voice/txt and cell data are working. Data seems a little slow but usable. Wifi and bluetooth won't turn on. I also still have the sim car slot issue upon rebooting. After a bunch of reboots it will eventually see sim card.
What else can I try? Is there a better way to attempt to repair/reload my radio drivers? Perhaps there is corruption of sorts? I have not tried a custom ROM or radio or kernel…… I did take to a local tech. They looked at everything literally under a microscope and did not see any issues that way. I am in the USA and have a lgd820. Although we are quick to assume a hardware issue, I am wondering if there is some sort of incompatibility with the first run of N5 and lollipop….. who knows!
I’ve read all sorts of threads on the internet. It seems I am not the only one. We are very quick to assume it must be a bad motherboard, it just seems too coincidental to me!

Hi,
This link was actually what i was going to suggest. It seems you've tried pretty much everything in the book except that.
I think its worth a try. Same as any other learning process, take your time and read the whole thing once or twice until you feel comfortable with the process. Then go for it.
Darn it, I should have downloaded those programs BEFORE rooting my phone again. Now I a struggloing to get my SIM card detected again to get data to DL them! whooops!
How would I go about attempting to read my files first to see if they are accessible and potentially write down my old MACs first?
EDIT: I found this but not sure how to get that working? I have Windows 7 and CMD prompt at this point. what program is that using?

OK, I went through those steps. everything appeared to go through correctly. Still no wifi nor bluetooth
EDIT: I rebooted a second time. WHen it first boot up, wifi was on and connected to my works AP. I quickly went in and snagged a screen shot of MAC address. Oddly enough, it did not match what I had input via hex editor. Within a few moments the wifi stopped working. It is back to the turning wifi on issue..... bluetooth still not working as well.
Very interesting.....
EDIT2: I get access denied when attempting to read either files within their corresponding folders under persist.
I was able to copy my stock files into my sdcard download folder and read them there without issue. Thus seeing my default addresses for both!
Perhaps it is normal, but I am never able to edit the old or new files under persist. I basically renamed original folders to bluetoothold and wifiold. I could delete them perhaps.
Note that I put my phone into airplane mode before doing anything noted in the steps.
Any other ideas? Given that it is showing my original MAC address the one time it worked, this makes me think that it is not reading the files .macaddr at all
I have the same problem. Funny thing is, the phone is just over 2 years old and the motherboard was replaced just 9 months ago (so, brand new one).
In my case, I received and Android update 2 days before I found the phone burning hot and restarting on it's own. Then the same chain of events you describe started to unleash. Now I can't be sure if this is software related, hardware related or both.
Can't seem to find a solution to the issue either.

I'm facing the same issues and I tried all the possible steps I could find on internet trying to repair the problem.
Actually, since the latest updates I was encountering some issues with the WiFi only: not turning on either off and not showing properly the MAC addres. So I decided to factory reset, even SDcard and since yesterday I have tried all the possibile guide I found to internet to fix the MAC address not showing and the WiFi not turning on/off but nothing worked. I tried even to flash again the old factory images, such as KitKat, Lollipop, etc., to lock the bootloader again and to dismantle the phone in order to clean the motherboard, but nothing worked. Phone still gives me MAC address 02:00:00:00:00:00 alternatively with the correct one, I can't figure out on what it depends because sometime it seems to work: it shows the correct MAC, it connects to wifi network; suddenly it doesn't!
I'm really going crazy to understand what's wrong.
You'll have to dig up my final posts on this , but in a nutshell, send into LG for repair, select cheapest option they offer. Receive mint phone. My cost was $45 and about one month... I picked up a cheap $20 phone to get me by.
In other news.... I now have a 6p!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Device is locked and never been rooted. Took the 5.1.1 update and apps like Netflix and HBO GO fail unerringly after 1-5 minutes of streaming.
Somethings...
-Neither app actually crashes to the desktop. It crashes to the apps main menu.
-Both apps attempt to "redraw" (3-4 times in quick succession) after the player fails, then I can usually reload the video.
I have...
-Cleared data/cache
-uninstall/reinstall the apps
-did a full factory reset
ANY thoughts would be really appreciated. Not having much like finding any resolution here. Thx in advance
I have the same problem. I have flashed the latest firmware with Kies and Odin to make sure there were not issues and still Netflix stops playing as does Youtube, Plex etc...
I have spent around 8 hours trying to find a fix to no avail. I made sure that Display > Smart screen options were disabled. In developer options I checked Force GPU rendering and Turn off hardware overlays. I also tried and unending list of other settings to no avail. Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks Chris

Go in to About Device in Settings. Does your status show "custom?" If it does, remove your SD card and transfer the files on it to your PC. Reformat the card on your Note and afterwards put the files back on it. There's a strange SD card glitch that occasionally causes the system status to show custom when it's not.

No my Device Status is Official. I tried using a different launcher "Google Now" hoping that a more simple launcher might clear things up but no luck. Netflix stops playing after a couple of minutes and youtube pauses. I want to be clear Netflix does not crash it just goes back to the menu where I can hit play again.
This fixed my tablet!
I may have found a fix. At least this fixed the issue for me.
The Back Story: (for you to compare similarities in device errors)
I have been having the same which started after the update. and my tablet has never been rooted either. I chatted with Samsung several times. They acted like this has never happened before and they kept saying it might be a bad wifi antenna. Which sounded like BS since I was able to surf the web and even watch youtube through chrome no problem. If I tried to watch videos on youtube, netflix, vudu it would reset as you mentioned. I even noticed that when I was using Polaris word it would erase everthying I had written randonmly. Samsung also tried to say it could be the app itself. Which I instantly doubted since the apps are made by different companies. I did the factory reset. I even took the tablet to Best Buy to have them do a system re-flash with no luck. I almost sent the tablet to samsung to have them try to fix it, but I had a feeling it was something easy to fix and I could save myself money.
THE FIX:........ I have no clue why this worked. If anyone knows why it worked I sure wouldn't mind hearing your thought!
1. Pop the sim card out.
2. Try playing videos on your apps. (Be sure to check a couple apps) It worked like a charm for me. I dont think I had to reboot to get it to work, but the fix stays after a reboot.
3. What you do not want to do is put the sim card back in because you will have the issue again.
- If you do put the card back in dont worry. You can simply remove it again and it will work again.
One thing to keep in mind.....I stopped my subscription on my verizon data plan. So it doesn't matter to me if the sim card is in. So If you still use Verizon Data plan and this fix worked then you should contact Verizon and let them know whats going on. Maybe you just need a new Sim Card. Like I said I don't know why it worked, but it did. I had data turned off completely so my device shouldn't have been trying to use anything other than wifi.
Please let me know if this works for you as well!
Thanks are always welcome!

It Worked!!!
Thanks very much for the suggestion. As it turns out the tablet came to me with a sim card in it. I never intended on using it with Verizon so I did not look. Once I removed the inactive sim card everything worked great.
Thanks again I really appreciate the help.
