Nexus 5 freezing - com.android.systemui has stopped - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey all,
This started a couple of weeks ago and has gotten worse. I'll be using my phone normally and it will just freeze. No warnings, no messages, nothing. If I wait around 5 minutes I'll be booted back to the lock screen and the message "Unfortunately the process com.android.systemui has stopped." The phone will then function normally. Now when it freezes I just hold down the power button until the phone restarts since it's quicker.
I haven't installed any new apps recently so I don't think it's down to that. Sometimes before the phone freezes it will stutter badly for about 20 seconds. Would appreciate any help. Running stock 4.4.4.

Would be helpful if you could post your logcat/dmesg. That way we can have a look and narrow down the problem

Make sure you enable USB debugging. I believe in this case logcat is more important than dmesg.

I tried using SysLog but I don't have root access so I cannot export any logs. Also, I do not have access to a computer. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Are you using CM or some other type of themes? I used to see that often. So I stopped using them.

Unfortunately afaik as of JB you either need root for logcat or access to a computer.
I'm just taking a shot in the dark here but perhaps try wiping the cache partition from recovery? You don't need a custom recovery to wipe cache.

try dirty flash stock rom. but check if it is deodexed or odexed.
edit: you mean its rooted but stock rom or is it just non-rooted?

Just in case you are messing around and you mess something up!
The mirror seems to be kind of slow after I download it I will re-up it to a few other places.

I apologize for my stupidness but as I've never owned an HTC device I'm not 100% sure I understand how this file works. So, do you need to put it into download mode and then run the exe or just enable debugging and then run it?
Definitely thanks. This would presumably break root if we had it.

You'll need to use HTC sync to RUU the phone, sort of like ODIN, except with HTC's software

Its basically your phones stock factory reset if you mess anything up being adventurous and trying to find a perm root. You plug your phone into your computer and run it from your desktop

I assume you mean restoring factory defaults which will wipe user data but it will not restore OS and kernel data whereas this will.

yeah, I think so. You can do a reset through the phone menus or through bootloader. That was the only 2 ways I knew. Will try this as my phone is a little sluggish after I did Zroot and deleted it and did a factory reset.

The only reason to restore stock RUU would be if you borked your phone or were perm rooted and wanted to return the phone to the store.
Got it. Thanks

I received this error with my Heroc.
The way I fixed it was to have the phone at the bootloader when running the RUU. Not sure if that will work with this phone or not but worth a shot..
Restart the phone into bootloader - Power off and Power on while holding vol. down, or type adb reboot bootloader in your CMD prompt.
Once there make sure your phone is plugged in and says Fastboot USB at the top then try running the RUU again.
Let us know if it works.

on a scale of 1-10 how F**Ked is my phone?

I have no idea whats going on with my phone, I cannot seem to use the "master reset" feature of my phone I start it up and This (see attached image) comes up.
in addition: I find that for some reason when I do normally start it up it gets stuck at the "touch the android to begin" to I touch it, and I get "Sorry The process process .com.android.providers.calendar has stopped, unexpectedly, please try again. I force close and another message pops up android.process.acore has stopped please try again" I close that, and I get the application google services framework (process.com.google.process.gapps) has stopped please try again. I close that.and I get "the process com.google.process.gapps has stopped unexpecedtly, please try again" I try bypassing that screen entirely by using the 4 corners trick. (top left, top right, bottom right bottom left) and I get to the wizard screen only there is only the banner that says wizard screen and nothing else. (and then I get those same errors)

So first off, what did you do to make this happen? Try rooting? Rooted and tried to flash a ROM? Something different? Did it just start out of the blue? Give some info on how you came to this situation...
Yes I tried rooting, followed the instructions to the letter, and at first the phone would not go past the "Blaze 4G" logo, (I let it sit there for upwards of 20 minutes with no change, taking out and putting the battery back in) so I decided to flash it back to factory settings using the factory default package provided on this forum. ..and thats how this whole thing started.

If you still have a custom recovery you can install Gapps through it. You will have to do some research, though, and figure out which version Gapps you should use. Version of Gapps must correspond with version of Android .
Good luck, my friend

Glad I could help. Enjoy your stay.
Edit: Problem solved. After just using stock Blaze 4G I found elsewhere rather than the file listed on the tutorials here for the PDA section, I was able to boot in recovery mode again and was able to do a stock reset from there. Everything looks a little different, but at least it actually runs again.

[Q] Help Please!

So I have a VZW S3 on NE1 rooted and running xposed. I am not sure what module it was that I installed but my phone is now stuck with the SystemUI constantly crashing to the point of me being unable to use the phone. Then I, like a moron, Unrooted my phone thinking that would stop the issue. It didn't. I do have usb debugging enabled and my phone connects to the computer. Can I just boot into recovery and use the Xposed-disabler-recovery zip to fix this? will that wreck my phone since VZW is so annoying? Would that wipe my memory? And if that doesn't work what else could I do except pull everything I can off my phone and and reflash the entire thing using Odin?
Thanks a million!

[q] samsung galaxy s4 stuttering.

Hi there.
I have recently purchased a Samsung Galaxy S4 smartphone, and i am having some problems with it.
While watching youtube videos, and also while doing anything else on the phone, the screen will freeze for around 2-3 seconds, then unfreeze again.
This happens roughly every 3 minutes roughly.
I have tried clearing the youtube cache
I have tried enabling developer mode and turning on 'Force GPU rendering'.
I have tried rooting my phone, and downloading an app called project butter, which you may have heard of.
None of these actions have fixed the stuttering, so i really need help to find a permanent fix, or at the least, a temporary fix.
If someone could please help me out with this, i'd greatly appreciate it.
Thank you
