[Q] "com.sec.android.sviewcover has stopped" - graviton rom - General Questions and Answers

Hello my apologies if this has been asked,
I have an AT&T Samsung Galaxy S4 4.4.4 with NJ4 firmware.
To root I flashed the I337_NC1_Stock_Kernel using Odin's PDA slot, rooted using Towelroot, then flashed back to I337_NJ4_Stock_Kernel using Odin's PDA slot.
I downloaded Graviton rom, GalaxyS4/SGH-i337/roms/Graviton/Graviton_S4_v3.0_20140502_SafeStrap.zip
I used Safestrap to boot into recovery mode and made a back up of the stock rom on my ext_sd.
I did a wipe and then flashed Graviton and now when I boot up it appears that rom loads but I get this message stuck on the screen:
"Unfortunately, com.sec.android.sviewcover has stopped."
I tried rewiping and reloading the rom and still get the same problem. I tried restoring using my backup however, when I go to restore I can't see my back up on my sd. However, I checked with my computer and it is there.
What is my best course of action?

Try wiping the data and cache of the mentioned process in the settings. If this doesn't solve then it could be a rom bug

thanks, it still did not work . I will assume it is a rom bug. I did manage to get my restore to work.
I noticed that my stock was 4.4.4 and graviton is based on 4.4.2. Does this matter?

Just to update. My apologies I don't know how I missed this but I needed to install the nj4 module as well as supersu.zip from safestrap right after installing the rom.
To any other newbies having same problem read this entire thread carefully.

[HELP] bugs found on ViperOneS v2.0

I've just flashed the ViperOneS v2.0 from v1.2.1 yesterday, I've followed all the instruction from the thread. After flashing the Rom, it keeps showing "Unfortunately, the process android.process.acore has stopped." I tried to send a bug report through the Venom Hub app, but it keeps telling the there is a error and it is unable to send the report. Can anyone tell me how to fix it?

re-download rom and check md5
did you flash boot image per instructions, if under .13 hboot you may be able to flash just the rom and no need to fastboot boot image
but, you need to wipe all including system in recovery 2X and not in aroma. i have my best luck that way
also try a full rom install as opposed to custom, if you did a custom

my hboot is 1.13 and I did factory twice before flashing the rom, I'll try it again anyway. thanks for your help
I also experienced force close on certain app, is there any solution for it?
I've tried to wipe all the stuff and reinstall the rom, but the problem still exists. Is there any other solution for it? I can't even manage my contacts , whenever I want to link ny contacts, it force closes by itself.

also on fc's clear apps data for tweaks and hub
redo it all again, but this time wipe sdcard first. of course back card up before wiping, just don't restore. i think new rom flash will repopulate what must be there like android secure and a couple others. someone can confirm that.
if it don't work you may want to go back to stock and start over
Is it necessary to wipe the sd card also? btw, I've lost the 3G connection after flashing the rom, I can only connect to the GSM network and when I switch to WCDMA only in my network setting, my phone shows no service is available. Is it the problem of the radio?
Sent from my HTC One S using xda premium
i can use any radio and have no issues
start over with a fresh flash of 2.1 the upgarde manually
don't have to wipe sdcard
but if you start over with full wipe 3x including system. and reformat your sdcard before doing all that. it only leaves your phone. not all phones work well on all roms.
best to fastboot boot image
don't wipe in recovery and aroma, just aroma
don't use twrp 2.4.3.0, or what ever number is for latest--leaving work so kinda in hurry
after you boot first time, reboot and clear caches and boot back into os
claer data on tweaks and hub apk's
not saying you need to do all this, it just eliminates everything but your phone
anyway--good luck
I got the same problem and just reflashed everything and it worked.

[Q] In the middle of the root/unlock process... Need some help

Hi everyone. After 5 months, I decided to come back and try to root my phone again.
First, I'm on JB 4.1.2 with my VZW GS3.
I get to this step in the process.... Step 4 - Rooting Your Device and Unlocking Your Bootloader and every option I choose, tells me that the signature failed and the installation is aborted. Can someone tell me what I did wrong, if it can be fixed, and how?
I was once rooted before, and went back to stock using ODIN in the past. Will that have an effect on it?
When I got to Step 3, I used these instructions: •Flash the VRALEC Bootchain using ODIN v3.07 - My phone shows VRBMB1 - should I have used that boot chain instead? Can I still flash it using ODIN, over what is already there?
I can get my phone to boot normally, but when it boots it just shows custom at the bottom. I haven't bricked it or anything, I'm just concerned I haven't messed up the root process all together.
Thanks for the help...
Did you choose to install the zip in recovery or did you pick a different option? First make sure your zip is good and you didn't get a bad download. You can flash the VRALEC Bootchain whenever, and you must do it before flashing your recovery. If installing your zip isn't working in CWM try installing TWRP and flash the zip on that recovery instead. And no restoring back to stock with Odin won't affect anything.

I chose to install the zip in recovery, and I did it after flashing my recovery.
Can I install TWRP using ODIN, right over the CWM installation? Will it hurt anything?
Thanks for your help!!

Here's what I did:
1. Booted into ODIN, Flashed VARELC
2. Booted into ODIN again, Flashed Recovery (following ALL directions exactly) Pulled battery, put back in, went back into ODIN
3. Attempted to install the Update -> Download SuperSU + Unlocked Bootloader (showed FIXED in the file name)
4. Got this process: finding update package, opening update package, verifying package, signature verification failed, Installation Aborted.

Yeah you're doing everything right I don't know why it's saying that. Try installing with TWRP - you can flash it at anytime and overwrite the old recovery.

Your second and third step are wrong. You need to flash SuperSU in recovery NOT download mode. Download mode handles "tar" files, recovery handles "zips."
Edit: well, the latter half of your second step is wrong, pull battery then boot into recovery mode...home, volume UP, and power

I'm sorry, I am doing the supers in recovery, not ODIN. I tried both CWM now and TWRP and still have the same exact error messages. Not sure what to do to fix this, but I'm almost ready to try to reverse what I did. I have been wanting to remove the bloatware and now I saw the Carbon ROM that looks pretty cool. If you can get me past this issue, it would be great.
Oh I just noticed you chose update. You have to choose to install in CWM not update. But if it didn't work in TWRP either it sounds like there is something wrong with the zip file. Have you tried redownloading the zip file?

Here is another interesting thing....
Should I have an install or is Apply Update the same thing. When I boot into recovery, here are my choices:
reboot
apply update from adb
apply update from external storage
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache
apply update from cache
Do I have the right version of recovery? Does this help any?
Ok. So I decided to download a new recovery file for CWM and this time it worked.
I'm not sure what told me to do it, but I decided to give it a go.
Next question, I remember the root processing being very involved with clearing cache, clearing dalvik cache, etc.
Is there a link to the newest process on how to root exactly and apply new ROMs? I of course will be backing up my existing ROM first.

That's odd someone else had that issue where install wasn't an option. He ended up using TWRP. That clearing thing is for flashing roms. The way you flash every rom is wipe data/factory reset, clear cache, clear dalvik cache, and wipe /system. Make a backup before. I recommend using TWRP cause there have been times in CWM where I would try to restore and I would get an MD5 mismatch error, which I've never gotten on TWRP

I was thinking of using the carbon ROM. I realized that I didn't install the md5 file extension for cwm using ODIN so I went back and flashed it with one i was able to find, and it worked. I'm ok with using twrp but I haven't been able to find an md5 file for ODIN. Can you give me a link to one? I've only found .tar files and that seems to have been my problem. I might still try to use cwm now that I have my existing stock ROM backed up. Still debating.
On a side note, if I decide to unroot again, since I have not flashed, is there a method for that so I don't lose what I've got?

What do you mean you can't find the md5? You can flash the .tar twrp recovery in Odin the same way you flash md5s. And no sorry I don't know of any way to unroot without flashing a factory image. But to get your apps back you can use App Backup and Restore. It won't recover the app data obviously cause you need root for that but it's faster for restoring your apps so you don't have to make a list and download each one off the Play Store.
The file I had used didn't have an md5 filename and I think that's why it failed. I found one and downloaded it so it worked for me after that. Thank you for the unroot info too.

[Q] Flashing Question

I succesfully added clockwork recovery, and installed the cyanogen mod 10.1 (4.2.2) to my phone, however when I click reboot, it gets stuck on the Samsung Logo
I then took the battery out and did a dalvic cache clear but the same issue occured... My install was succesfull, its just that it gets stuck on the Samsung Logo...
what have I done wrong?? Should I try install a different mod?? Or have I bricked my phone?? Or is there a foolproof way of installing a mod using Odin??
PS: (additional info)
I renamed the mod file before installing if that helps
I have no backup files
the only thing I can access on the phone atm is the Recovery Mode and Download Mode...
You would have backed up your previous rom..try fixing permissions....if not check cynogenmod is for your device or not.... If not download your device os reflash it by installing stock recovery.

I dont want to hijack this thread, but I have basically the same problem. I rooted my GT-I9300 phone and all was well, until I ran "NoBloat" to remove unwanted apps. Thereafter it runs up to the Samsung logo, then I get the following messages in succession: "Unfortunately messaging has stopped", "Unfortunately the process com.android has stopped", "smartcard service has failed" and "unfortunately the phone has stopped". I removed the battery, tried to flash the ROM again using the standard Samsung.tar file to restore to factory settings, but it made no difference. I am able to read the S3 files when linked to my Desktop and I can get it into download mode. I have run out of ideas and need help from the clever members.
If you get force closes fix permissions

Firstly, cwm doesn't work. Its garbage. I've semi bricked my phone well over 10 times trying to flash cm on it with cwm. Install goomanager and install TWRP to flash.
Secondly, once into TWRP recovery. Go to wipe>advance wipe> and select delvik cache, data, cahce, storage. Then go back to TWRP home and install the cm 10.1 and also the gapps package.

If you're using the stock kernel and haven't changed anything at all in /system, you can just flash the update in recovery. I'm stock rooted with TWRP, and it flashed just fine for me.

Just flashed the official 4.4.1 zip file using TWRP onto my phone and rebooted...
Now i'm getting constant errors with every google application.
non-stop popups saying "unfortunately google play store has stopped"
My APN's all deleted themselves as well and now I can't even add any back in, I fill all the information in and I hit save and it doesn't save anything. No service now..
couldn't do a factory reset, button wouldn't respond
anyone else have any problems like this. I've tried wiping my dalvik and cache but that failed. had to wipe data first, then cache worked, then dalvik finally wiped...
I'll set my phone back up and see if it works now, just going through first boot procedures

Did you maybe delete data for Google Framework in order to get the OTA quicker?
Dan Morrill (an Android engineer) said that that is REALLY not recommended because it can have all sorts of problems with all google apps. Doing that erases your device fingerprint used for push notifications, device identification etc. The playstore was definitely affected by this as well.

You need to wipe data cache and dalvik before you flash.
I couldn't cause I used Odin to return to stock
Sent from my SM-G920T using XDA Free mobile app
Flash TWRP recovery from Odin and wipe from there.
that didnt work either
I had this issue back when I still had my old S3. It is usually solved by reflashing again the stock ROM via Odin.
