[Q] Please help! "unfortunately the process com.android.systemui has stopped"
I have a rooted nexus 5 running CM11. I kept getting this message before and I didn't know why so I posted here and someone told me to wipe my data so I did. That fixed the problem for about 2 weeks but it's back again. It happens so frequently now its very frustrating. It happens when I open an app, update an app or uninstall an app. Not every time but most frequently when updating. Why is this happening?! Please help and thanks in advance!

Just reflash your ROM or flash a different ROM and your problem should be fixed

Do you use Xposed or any theme mods? Probably something like that causing it.
As spinninbsod said, just dirty flash your ROM again or clean flash a new one.

Ok I'll try reflashing. And yes I have xposed and around 10 mods.

Cool, just make sure none of the mods are trying to do the same thing, like change battery icon etc.
If you're reflashing ROM it also might be worth taking a fresh back up before reactivating Xposed, just to save reflashing if something ***** up again

I think its XBLAST TOOLS that's giving me the problems. I don't get that error until I open the app.

Ok that's a good start. Can you remember what you were using it to do? There's probably a similar settings in XGEL or Gravity Box.

As soon as I open xblast I get the error. I just uninstalled it and I'm trying gravity box now to see if it was just xblast. And what do you mean what I was using?

Yes. I had like everything enabled. I changed things in the status and notification bar and I also did stuff to my lock screen and a few other tweaks.

You can change all that stuff in GravityBox and XGEL so might be best to just use those instead

Due to an update of an Xposed module, I had badly corrupted my systemui. The phone was totally unusable, and I could only press the OK button notifying the stopped event at startup.
Lucky me, I still had not updated to 4.4.3. Via Skipsoft Android Toolkit I updated to the last Android release, and my systemui got fixed. I did not choose to perform a complete wipe, so I actually maintained my previous apps. In relation to root, I did not loose it, but I had to reinstall SuperSU to get the non-official apps working again.
I hope this helps somebody else in my same condition, with no need to do a system wipe!

thank you. this helped me today.
woke up with the error. assuming its gravitybox and xblast causing an issue. will remove xblast.

Xposed does not actually "touch" or change SystemUI in any way. Xposed puts a couple of "files" in system which allows intercepted commands to be changed, without changing the actual code.
When you updated the ROM via a toolkit (PLEASE don't use toolkits by the way) you would have overwritten these Xposed files.
The simplest fix is to just remove the Xposed files

Xsposed warning

I thought I'd just stick this up here as a little warning to others. I have a N9005, stock rom but rooted with cf autoroot. Had phone a month with no issues what so ever, 3 days ago I decided to put xsposed on there and find some some modules. Before I found any I got a warning saying sd card umounted so decided to try sort that out. I then quickly found out the power button had gained a 5 second delay from press to any responses. Next the dialer keeps freezing and when I'm on a call the proximity sensor won't turn the screen back on for 10 seconds after I move phone away from my head. Most annoying of all is the clock app has just totally derpt. Got no alarm clock at all and clock widget keeps saying I'm in Israel!! The sd card seams to be totally dead as neither my sensation, G nexus or pc will read it now and my backups are on it so I guess today's job is finding stock rom and starting from scratch again.
All this may just only happen to me but I thought I'd put it out there as a little warning

I have been using xposed for about a month since i got my Note 3. Never had any issues. So this happened even before you installed any modules?
Well xposed had been known to be tricky. Most times it works, sometimes it messes up and sometimes it gets you into a boot loop.
Yeah, was scrolling through the modules to download when the sd warning came on and all the other problems have since followed. Just want to note that I haven't installed anything else since Xposed and had no issues before installing
You installed the latest xposed version right? The previous ones are not compatible with 4.3. I've been using it with no problems.
Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk
Yeah, the latest version. What is really confusing me is why it's getting my location as Israel constantly. Doesn't matter if I'm on wifi or 4G

The next logical question would be - Have you tried uninstalling it to see if the issues go away? If they do go away, try reinstalling it and see if you experience the same thing.
I've been using Xposed with the Wanam module and don't have any issues.
Have uninsulated. Made no difference. Factory reset made no difference either. Just had a full wipe and flashed clean stock rom. Will see how that does then will know if all is fixed
Ive had similar issues with xposed myself
~hy from germany~
Not all Xposed module is working in every phone.
You should name which Xposed framework module give you problem.
So far I using Xposed framework till now fine and not much issue.
I only use few module:
App Settings - 100% working.
Wanam Xposed - theming is working, hide smart stay, blocking mode and etc is working but not all example center clock not working since MJ6 firmware as it will give you FC after end call.
Instagram Downloader - 100% working.

It's simple. Your device is hacked by mossad.
Just to say, after a full wipe and clean flash back to stock rom all is normal again. I'm guessing just got unlucky with xposed this time. Not sure if I'll be in any rush to try again for a little while
I have xposed with a lot of modules, but xblast and 3 dot menu modules cause troubles, screen freezes and ui stops working
Mine, if this helps anyone (I've never had any problems):
App Settings
Boot Manager (Amazing)
Disable Clear Defaults Dialog
GravityBox (I disabled for messing something up - tread carefully)

"com.android.systemui has stopped"

Yesterday I rooted my phone and put on Xposed and gravity box. Since then I've been downloading various things and trying out different customisation options. The last thing I download was MotoXposed and I made my navigation bar completely transparent, when I tried to disable the effect my phone just came up with the message 'unfortunately the process com.android.systemui has stopped'. Now I can't use my phone and the message keeps coming up everytime I turn it on. How can I fix this? or get my phone working again?
Don't worry I've fixed my phone completely now.

Boot into recovery and flash Xposed-Recovery-Framework located at /sdcard . This is assuming the problem was caused by an Xposed module in the first place. Not sure whether OP uses this

All I had to do was reboot my phone and luckily (even though the message was still coming up) I could still use the touchscreen. This allowed me to go to the motoXposed module that caused the problems and undo the options I changed.
Unfortunately the process com android.systemui has stopped. Xposed Installer
Does anyone has any clue about this:
I have been having the same issue with my Galaxy S5.
I am using the rooted stock ROm with touchwhiz.
The issue started after I installed Xposed Installer with Wanam Xposed.
The "unfortunately the process com android.systemui has stopped" message does not come on until I received phone call while the phone is active. If I receive a call when the screen lock is on, the phone behaves normally.
The other issue I'm having with Xposed Installer are
1) a noticeable increase in lagging
2) apps takes close to 10 minutes to install
3) It takes a long time for the computer to see the phone after connecting them with USB....sometimes up to 15 minutes. thereafter it was not taking as long, but it was still being delayed.
I have flashed the phone three times with roughly the same observation after each flashing (i.e. issues cropping up only after installing Xposed Installer and some modules)
I'm going to try system tuner now...
Did you managed to fixed it? I have the same problem as well!

No I did not. I factory-reset the phone. Did not install xposed installer again and It's been working well since then. However, I'm still going to try it one last time...I'll keep you posted
I resolved this by booting into recovery (TWM in my case) and then manually deleting the offending .apk file from /data/app.

Help
I recently rooted my phone with TWRP using Odin. I did a few small things in customizing (ie: font, rotate screen) and now I get this error message.I've tried to boot in recovery and it just constantly flashes the Teamwin logo screen and i get no where. Could really use some help here, cannot use my phone at the moment
i have this issue too
I have this with Orbot. Simply restarted the phone and made a speed-run to uninstall it. Works to me.
So, the main question is: why this happen?

[Q] Screen is not showing up in battery history

Hello guys,
I've got a problem with my 'screen'. If i go to Settings > Battery there is no 'screen' so I cant see for how long my screen has been on. I couldnt find a good answer with google. On XDA there is also only one thread about this problem with no answer. I'm running a Nexus 5 stock 4.4.4 with Root & Xposed.
Things I've done trying to fix it:
* Wiped Cache and Dalvik Cache
* Wiped batterystats
* Plug in and out charger
Is there any option I have forgotten? I dont want to do a full factory reset. Don't blame me for my English please, it's not my nativ language.
Edit:
Did a full recharge and suddenly 'Screen' appeared. Anyone knows why?
Are you using any theme? Or are you using any xposed modules which might affect it? Install gsam monitor and see whether the screen time is recorded over there or not.

Very difficult to judge the culprit over here. Uninstall all modules, reboot and see if the screen shows up? If it still doesn't install Gsam battery monitor to see the screen on time if you don't want to reset.
If you're just worried about your /sdcard data then flashing a stock rooted 4.4.4 rom won't wipe it at all. Give it a try.

[Q] Nexus 5 SystemUI Crash. Need Help!

Hi Guys! Really hope you can help.
My Nexus 5 when I turned it on this morning booted up into 4.4.4 and suddenly showed that the process "com.android.systemui" has stopped. I rebooted several times and even cleared the cache through stock recovery and I still get the message. I have no idea what caused it. It was fine last night when I turned it off.
My phone is rooted and I do have a nandroid that is about two months old and I could boot TWRP using the Nexus Root Toolkit, but I was wondering if there is any other options? I would prefer not to lose anything up to this point.
I could kick myself for not making a more current nandroid. I've just been busy.
If the nandroid restore is the best approach could you refresh me on the exact options needed for both a clean restore with a nandroid and a dirty flash? I would probably dirty flash it first.
Hope you can help! Thanks so much!

First of all, stop using the stock recovery.
Since you had root access, were you using any modifications such as Xposed?
You can pull your internal storage with adb pull /sdcard/, and your app data with adb pull /data/data/ while in custom recovery.
You can also try pushing a stock ROM .zip downloaded from here to your device with ADB push, then dirty flashing it in recovery (obviously after flashing a custom recovery, also assuming you're on stock ROM).
Also, don't use toolkits. Click the first link of my signature and read some threads if you don't know how to use ADB/fastboot.
On a sidenote I do have xposed framework installed. However, I've never had any problems out of it and I have not modified anything in months.

Read my previous post, and since you're running Xposed try using it's safemode disable feature, explanation on how that works here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=51306764&postcount=9879

It's entirely possible that a module/Xposed itself is causing a SystemUI crash, it's happened to me before. I'd do it just to be sure, then proceed to what I said in my previous post if it still happens.
Ok its been awhile since I dirty flashed. If I have to do that, what are the exact things that need to be cleared to maintain data after recovery?

What do you mean? No data is lost if you dirty flash a ROM, it only reformats /system.
Custom recovery, download stock ROM flashable zip, ADB push zip to your device while it's in recovery, then flash it.
It looks like I may not have to flash anything. The Xposed Disable worked. But how do I proceed if I want to use Xposed still?

First of all we have to see if it's an individual module or Xposed itself causing the issue. List your modules?
Disable all your modules, and delete /data/data/de.robv.android.xposed.installer/conf/disabled using a file explorer (to re-enable Xposed like the post says).
Reboot with no modules active, and see if it happens again.
If it doesn't, enable one module, reboot.
If it still doesn't happen, disable the module and enable a different one, reboot again. Keep doing it until you find the culprit.
OK.
My modules are AC Display, Bootmanager, DS Battery Saver, Google Search API, Gravity Box (KK), Greenify, Immerse Me, Notify Clean, Swype Tweaks, Xblast Tools, and Youtube Adaway.

Continue with what I've said to try, a few of your modules modify the system and could be causing it.
Go to the xposed module repository and find which of those modules updated recently. I'd bet that's the culprit. Or at least it's a good place to start looking.
Ok before I proceed. I have went into Xposed and disabled all modules. I am now in Root Explorer and have dug down to the "disabled" file following the path indicated. Do I just delete "disabled" and then reboot?

Yep, delete the folder named "disabled"
It may be faster to see which module updated recently and see if that fixes the problem first before going one by one. What do you think?

Worth a shot. In the end it's probably a single module, or a combination of conflicting modules, that's causing the issue.
Looks like the latest updated was Bootmanager on July 26.

Try enabling them one by one by update date.
I'll reboot with all modules off first. Ok, I no longer am getting the error message. At least it's not Xposed itself!

Rooted Nexus not starting

Hey,
I've got a rooted Nexus which won't start anymore. It has been rooted for months and everything worked fine so far. I've installed a lot of root apps like the Xposed Framework, Titanium Backup and App Ops. The last Rom I had on it was the Stock Android 4.4.3. After running without any problems and me making no modifications, suddenly it stopped working. First, the System UI kept crashing after max. 1 second of running. Now, it won't even get past the boot screen. I think, it is a problem with a Xposed Framework module of which I have a lot installed (I remember XBlast, GravityBox and Wanam but there were more (propably around 10). Is there a way to disable the Xposed modules? Another problem is, that I don't know, if I accidently updated to KitKat 4.4.4 what could've caused those problems.
I hope, you can help me.

You can repetitively press the volume keys during boot and eventually it'll vibrate every time you do. What it does is add a folder "disabled" in Xposed's data and disables it. No need to push and flash lol. Was implemented a while ago as an easier alternative

I think it was in the Q&A thread for Xposed lol
Since nobody knows how to use adb to push

I tried that several times now and it doesn't seem to work. During boot, i repetitively pressed the volume keys as you told me until it vibrated a bit. Then, the boot took a lot longer than usual but it didn't change anything - the com.android.systemui process is still crashing.

Try what @rootSU said then. If that doesn't work either then its not because of Xposed.

Ok, it seems I did the button pressing the wrong way. After looking at the thread posted by rootSU and especially at this post I was able to do it (I pressed both volume buttons repetitively instead of just one). So, now I was able to boot the Nexus - what next?
Disable all your modules and re-enable Xposed with the instructions of that post. Reboot to see if its Xposed itself causing the issue. If it boots up then enable them one by one and reboot each time. One will be the culprit.

Ok, I disabled all of them and it booted now . I saw, that there are a lot of updates for my available (xposed installer, app settings, burnt toast, customshare, gravitybox, holo themer, wanam, xblast, xposed additions and youtube adaway). Should I install those before reactivating the modules?
Up to you

Ok, I updated all the modules, enabled them one by one (with a restart after every one) and now, everything is working again. Thank you very much for your help :good:.
