Unfortunately, Android keyboard has stopped

I installed CM10 on my AT&T HTC One X and can't type anything as the keyboard keeps crashing. I've searched all over the net for a keyboard to install but everything like Swype requires you install it from the phone directly which I can't type on. Does anyone know of a solution to this crashing issue or somewhere that I can get an alternate KB?
Here's the issue, the keyboard keeps crashing and the home button doesn't work either.. the phone just vibrates when I press it. I installed the CM10 nightly build plus the gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip GAPPS. I've been searching all over and search keeps breaking on xda so I can't find much on here right now.

Try rolling back to the most recent stable version.
The new JB keyboard crashes on me whenever I try to save anything, but I'm running it on a Sense rom.

So you can't even interact with the "Select input method" dialogue in the notification pane? Because you should be able to remotely install a new keyboard through Play. Then once it's there, you can switch in the notification pane.

I'm having the same issue. Tried installing CM10 coming from CleanRom. Did a wipe before install.
Not only keyboard for me, home button doesn't work correctly and I cannot launch the browser.
Went back into recovery, flashed CM10 again, preformed not only a factory reset but also did a "system" wipe.
rebooted and things were fine.
rebooted back into recover and installed gapps, things are hosed again.
reproduced on gapps 4.2 and gapps-jb-20121130-signed.zip

I can't even log into my google account, I can't get a keyboard to appear to type with.

OK,
Factory Reset and wipe "System"
Install CM10
Use gapps from 1011 - gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip
Things are working.

I can't seem to find Wipe "System" in the Factory Reset. The only options I am given to wipe are the data and cache which I have tried doing and afterwards reinstalling CM10 and GAPPS-jb-20121011-signed.zip yet the "Unfortunately Android's Keyboard (ASOP) has stopped working" still pops up

I know you have tried one of these but ill quote what Inflatedtitan gave to me when i had the same problem.
"Sounds like there could be a few problems so were gonna go with the most popular ones lol..
1. Sounds like you didn't wipe everything in twrp before you flashed. Make your you always wipe cache, dalvick, factory reset, and system. Then flash Rom followed by gapps.. then reboot
2. Have you restored from a titanium backup? If so, make sure next time its ONLY user apps.. if you restore system apps and data, think of your system settings from one Rom clashing with the system files from your new Rom. They won't play nice together. Only backup and restore user apps+data
3. If the above steps were taken correctly, I would delete the Rom.zip from phone. Maybe download using a different browser. Chrome browser is notorious for corrupting roms.. you could have had a bad download

With these steps I got my ROM working so maybe it could help you.

The issue y'all are having is coming from the newest gapps. Install a older gapps and you will be up and running. I had the same issue on my tab 7.0 and hox and reinstalling new gapps worked

I had the same problem as others here, keyboard would stop working as soon as my One X started. The above fixed it. I only wiped System, did not Factory Reset. Make sure you're using the above version JB Gapps.

I've seen this issue when I accidentally forget to wipe something. I've found I have to wipe, flash previously working Rom, THEN go back, wipe and install new rom.

[Q] BBC iPlayer crashes

I've been using CM11 for months (Kitkat 4.4.4) and recently switched to Paranoid Android 4.5+ and neither work with the iPlayer app. If I switch back to a 4.4.2 based build of either then it works fine.
PA 4.6 was a clean install but the problem remains. When I try to watch a video it attempts to start but the screen goes green and it hard resets.
Anyone else getting this?

try clearing cache, if it doesn't help try uninstalling and reinstalling it again..

I've completely wiped the phone several times, cache/dalvik cache/system/user data, everything. It only happens if I use a ROM from about July onwards. I've tried about 15 different ROMs and they all follow the same pattern. I'm guessing it's because a lot of them use CM sources and they're all inheriting the same codebase. The most recent custom ROM I can use that still allows iPlayer to function is Slimkat 4.4.4 build 6 (5266) which is from 30th June.

it works on 4.4.4.but not on 4.5 so maybe the application doesn't support your current rom?

[Q] [AOSP ROMs] KitKat camera crashing on startup

I had been running CM 10.2 for a while. Last night did a factory reset/wipe cache/dalvik and installed latest CM11 snapshot (M12). Stock camera app was crashing upon startup ("Unfortunately, camera has stopped."). Tried using 2 other camera apps (Google camera and open camera) and neither worked as well. Then tried flashing SlimKat and had the same problem. Already tried reflashing, rebooting, etc. multiple times. Anyone know why this is happening or have a fix?
I am using ClockworkMod Recovery 6.0.5.1, if that matters.
Also, already tried the CMFix thing from the play store, if anyone is planning on suggesting that, and it didn't work.
Also, I had unsuccesfully tried using the fix posted here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/themes-apps/17-fixed-camera-app-lib-cm-aosp-roms-t2505973 not realizing it was meant for the international version. Has that ****ed me over? I have since done a clean reflash of CM11
Update: Downgraded to CM 10.2. Camera does not even work here now! Gives the error, "Unfortunately, Gallery has stopped working". Please help

[Q] Apps Stuck "Downloading"

Two days ago I decided to switch from cm12 nightlies to cm12s.
After performing a clean flash I was very pleased to see that I even had the option to restore the apps I had installed before. However, when trying to install those apps I encountered a problem. Because the apps would not download. They would say "Downloading"but it woult get stuck forever.
I had never experienced such problem before but so I thought it was the cm12s flash. So, I flashed back to the latest cm12 nightly I still had on my OPO with the hope that the problem would have vanished. Unfortunately it didn't.
MY PROBLEM:
When I try to install apps from the play store they get stuck in an endless loop of "downloading".
What I tried so far:
flashing back to a normal cm12 nightly
flashing cm11s and after that upgrading to cm12s (in cm11s the problem also persists, same for SOKP-rom to see if it would also persist in a different rom)
rebooting with and without superSU after flashing OS.
entirely wiping my phone (cache, dalvik cache, system, data) and flashing cm12/s
after the step above^, deleting the data and/or cache from "Google Play Services", "Google play Store", "Google Play Framework" (and if possible deleting updates so it goes back to factory app)
changing location settings
deleting google account and re adding it.
clearing Cache and Dalvik Cache multiple times
using the 1-Click installer from their forum
Tried to find the android_secure folder but could not find it. (even with hidden files disabled in windows)
Perhaps even more but I can't quite remember much more...
I experienced after flashing a new os multiple times that the problem is not really the play store and/or the apps in it. But I believe the problem is more with the "Google Play Services" because most of the apps I can update perfectly fine but the "Google Play Services" continuously refuse to update and get stuck at "downloading". Unfortunately that app is needed to be able to use e.g "Gmail".
Hopefully there are more people on this forum who have experienced this problem before and know how to fix it.

Got the same crap... It's been 2 days now with the Store stuck on downloading.
I have all the latest updates, Store, Services etc.
Also tried to disable the security section like Enterprise.
Nothing works.... This is driving me mad!!!
Anyone got a fix?

Somehow it fixed itself......
What cought my eye was that if it is not working, try downloading the app via 3g or at your friends house... For some reason it would sometimes not download via wifi but it would via 3g.
I hope this works for you aswel

I didn't get it working again, so I removed all data and reinstalled the rooted firmware for my device and just did a backup with the mybackup pro.
Somehow there was something with the system or the data, but it works now.

Glad to see you're working on the ovation version as well. I've upgraded from your 14.1 version to this one but I've been getting an error on the slimkat boot. I've used the twrp 3.1.1, factory reset, fresh install. The error was about data mounting. In the 14.1 I had both data and cache under the f2f system. When I installed back your 14.1 version, everything was back to normal, no errors. Do I need to format data and cache to ext4 for this slimkat version to work?

What build are you using?

I used this one Slim-ovation-4.4.4.build.9.14-UNOFFICIAL-20180108-1016.zip and this one lineage-14.1-20171216-UNOFFICIAL-ovation.zip as well as open_gapps-arm-4.4-pico-20180110.zip.
I saw you've put a 01-10 build today, I will try it and report back.

I tried the 01-10 build and it didn't work for me either. But this time I took a photo of the error. Hopefully this will help.
update:
went straight back to twrp and format data and cache to ext4 and it worked. I didn't do a factory reset or reinstall, just changed the formats and reboot.
Looks good so far, thank you for all the hard work #secretwolf98

Your welcome.

Google play seem to gives me problems, either crushes, or exists often. Also the nook button doesn't seem to work. Otherwise this new interface is beautiful and this rom looks very promising.

Testing Slim-ovation-4.4.4.build.9.14-UNOFFICIAL-20180123-1611.zip, this is a logcat with amaces TWRP, all partitions wiped, and only the rom installed:

This is the same as above, but with with verygreen cwm and I opened more apps:

This is the same as above after switching to art:

The biggest issue is with Chromium, it crashes with this strange error:
java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: Couldn't load chromium_android_linker from loader dalvik.system.PathClassLoader[DexPathList[[zip file "/system/app/Chromium.apk"],nativeLibraryDirectories=[/vendor/lib, /system/lib]]]: findLibrary returned null
The graphics seem unstable with hardware overlays, you can really see it when opening/closing Downloads and DSP Manager.

A new build is currently being tested. And released soon.

Anyone using this as their daily? Currently on 7.1.2 and wondering if anyone has an opinion on performance as I probably need another rom as alot of background apps are slow like hangouts/voice.

Recovery Version
I haven't done much with my HD+ since loading up CM a while back (I'm on 4.4.4 I think). Wanted to give this ROM a try since the CM one likes to reboot every day or two when it get's thinking too hard.
Question is, can I flash this with my current recovery? I'm using CWM 6.0.4.6 right now. Not sure if I needed to switch to TWRP and if so what version?
Other then wiping Data / Cache and installing the zip, anything else off hand I need to know?
Thanks all!

Yup got brave and gave it a try once I got a backup done. Installed just fine but didn't seem to like the gapps package I installed too much. Going to play around with it a bit now that I feel slightly more confident I won't brick the thing. Thanks!

Gapps
Which gapps do I use with this ROM? All that I've tried crash. I've used Open gapps and I dug up a zip from Slimroms.
Aside from the inability to use google play services, this rom is looking great.

I'm having the same problem.
open GAPPS - play store partially loads then FCs
PA - fails to install "incompatible gapps already installed" even though there isn't any.
slim gapps from the old site - can't sign in, play services FCs
Also, why isn't there a browser built in?
EDIT: It seems CWM doesn't completely clear my previous attempts when wiping. Is there a recovery that'll do an actual full wipe? Latest TWRP is broken for older android versions.
