Hey guys, this is my first thread on XDA so first of all hello
I have a problem with cyanogen mod, i partitioned my card to enable apps2sd and it was fine, then i installed a theme mod of cyanogen and didnt like it so i reflashed the original mod. It has a few problems so i then done a "Wipe settings" from the recovery mode and it had odd icons on my launcher after where it was trying to load apps from the memstick that were not installed ( at least thats my guess) as they always forced close, so i then formatted the EXT3 partition to remove all apps and wiped again to make sure it was all clean. Since then i have reinstalled all my apps but some of them... thinking about it most of my "Paid" apps dont have their icons in the launcher. And they are called the same as their package name for example nesoid is called com.android. I will try attach a screenshot to this post.
I tried to search for this but couldnt find anything, anyone know a workaround for this?
Have you tried using the fix_permissions script, in recovery? Try that if you haven't yet. If that doesn't work, just reinstall your apps that do not have icons. They'll work fine after that.
Sorry for double post but i have apparantly fixed it by either updating to 4.1.4 or before i rebooted to the new update i pressed repair ext filesystem.
Either way its working now
I keep getting:
The application ADW.Launcher (process android.process.acore) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.
It keeps looping this over and over when I force close.... please help
First go to settings, then applications then manage applications find adw clear cache or data, then if that doesn't work uninstall then reinstall, and if that doesn't work I'd say do a clean install of rom, by the way which rom are u running?

I can't even get into settings at all....this happens when it unlocks and keeps looping so I can't even get to my homepage.
I tried to get into the market via voice search for android market, but when I try and launch the market, the market app crashes too!.
The phone is currently stock 100%, just carrier code unlocked..
Yup, mine started doing this when I change themes. How does one get in touch with developers?

You could have deleted adw via adb while in cwm or even while booted into the os.

If you were 100% stock then that means you had installed adw launcher from the market. Correct? If that's the case then you could also have just done a factory reset from within cwm and it should've cleared up any issues as it would've deleted any user-installed apps, including adw launcher.
Either way glad you found a solution.

Problem already solved but just for others visiting this thread, there is a way to get rid of the issue (which worked for me). when there was crash in ADW Launcher, statusbar still works. This is to key to get back to original theme (as you can't access settings directly to set default theme)
Opened status bar, start internet.
From another device (or desktop machine), send a mail to yourself with google play link for the new theme you just installed
Your status bar will now have new mail notification (assume its activated)
Now access your mail app and open the link from the mail
Now you have browser app opened with google play page
You will have uninsatll option for that theme. Just do it.
Now as new theme is uninstalled, your default theme will come in picture and everything will be normal.
I hope this will help others fall in similar situation after installing new theme.
After OTA update from LRX22C to LRY47I, device reboots with:
"Android is starting... Optimizing app xx of xx." (few minutes)
"Starting apps." (few seconds) "Unfortunately, System UI has stopped. Report/OK"
Whatever is pressed, pop-up just reappears.
Clearing cache from recovery restarts app optimization, but error persists.
Basically it's unusable but everything works in the background.
If e-mail arrives, notification sound is heard. Already set alarms work. Notification LED works.
Device is without any modifications, bootloader is locked and usb debugging isn't enabled.
Is there any way to access data?
Is sideloading customized kernel with usb debugging possible with locked bootloader?
Can application for wi-fi access be pushed via google play with preconfigured options and started automagically?
Anyone tried to rescue data after factory reset with dumping disk image and doing forensics?
Any other ideas are welcome.
Btw, there is a thread on Google's Nexus support group were users reported same issue:
(as a new user I can't post direct link here so search for "Android 5.1 is Here!" on google)
From one message it looks as if they are working on this but there was no official answer yet.
Have you pressed playstore? Id a similar problem and it was a playstore system app needed to be updated. Got a message when pressed playstore

I wish it would be that simple. There isn't anything on the screen except pop-up.
Hi,
I've just updated from 5.0.1 to 5.1 (Nexus 5) and I'm having the same problem. The device won't go past a black screen with the error popping up every time.
I have tried wiping the cache twice but the problem persists. I don't want to factory reset because I haven't backed up my data in ages and I'm unable to retrieve that data via USB or whatever.
I believe the problem is caused by the launcher (stock in my case), when attempting to draw the wallpaper based on the info posted in Google's productforums by another user who had the same problem (xda won't let me post the URL since my account has too few posts).
I thought of sideloading a launcher from the recovery menu, considering that maybe it will be able to draw the wallpaper and the other stuff, but I don't know if that will work as I think.
Any ideas, please? Right now my Nexus is software bricked.

But what did you do? I can't do anything, it won't show the app drawer, it won't even let me enter the PIN for the sim card. Either I do stuff from recovery or nothing, and wiping the cache didn't solve it.

i was getting the same error loop and i was trapped in the loop with no way out.
here's what i did -
1. wiped cache partition, NO factory wipe - did this 2X - problem persisted.
2. hard reset device wipe back to factory state, then synced Google data, and reinstalled all apps and load all app settings backup files - problem persisted.
3. hard reset device wipe back to factory state, then synced Google data, and reinstalled all apps. this time i did not load my app settings backup files (Nova Launcher Prime, Fancy Widgets Unlocker, Calendar Status Pro, eWeather HD, Deliveries Package Tracker) on the hunch that perhaps there was an incompatible conflicting setting with 5.1 UI and one of the old app settings backups. AND i seemed to remember that the problem started as soon as i loaded the Calendar Status Pro backup settings file. i loaded all of the backup app settings files except for that one and had no problems. then i deleted that old backup file and started fresh with Calendar Status Pro and i've had no problems since.
so my guess is that you need to do a factory wipe and then reinstall all apps fresh. there may be an old setting from an old app that's conflicting with 5.1.
this is probably not what you wanted to hear but my fix required a hard reset and then starting fresh with the culprit app. yes it's a PIA and i spent most of the afternoon and my battery life fixing this problem.
let us know what you discover.
good luck!
I had the same problem: Seems that Calendar Status Pro is causing these issues.
This seems to be a huge problem with Nexus 5 and Nexus 6 users. You can see the complaints in Google's product forum.
Google Product Forums regarding the random reboots
On Android 5.1 I have been getting random reboots. There is no way to predict when it will happen. First time I was sending a message through line and phone went to a boot loop. I thought the power button was broken/stuck. Eventually it stopped boot looping and went through optimizing apps (I think i was holding down the power button). I thought I had a bad flash so i flashed the stock android 5.1 LRY47I through fastboot using the most recent usb drivers. Also wiped the device/set to default. Worked for a while and got Google Play and Gapps errors. Again I flashed the image through fastboot, reformatted/set to default settings in recovery. The third time I was getting gapps errors again so I reflashed/reformatted image through fastboot manually and not using the flash-all.bat. It seemed to work and put in all my settings again. Again I was looking at my phone, put it down, the screen was fading for sleep mode and then it boot looped and got it working and again went to optimizing apps. It booted then 2 minutes later it happened again when swiping apps away. Then a 3rd time. Clearing the Ui seemed to temporarily stop the boot loops. I am using a N5 unlocked, stock android. I thought it was a hardware problem until I saw a large number of users having the same issue on two different devices. Is there any way to create a system log to track down this problem? Thank you for suggesting the UI cache thing, but I am assuming it will boot loop/optimize apps again soon. This seems to be a huge problem for users. I hope this will be fixed soon.

i bet many problems are the result of incompatible apps/settings. mine was. try a fresh device with no apps installed and see if you get the same errors. it's easy to blame Google/Android/Lollipop but i don't think you can blame them if you install a rogue/incompatible/conflicting app or setting. Developers are not perfect and they often do not update their apps. the OS is only as stable as what you load onto it.

I did, fresh install with wipe/default and when I typed in my email address and not restoring from saved profile got a Google Play Services and Gapps error before anything was installed. The flash was through fastboot. Plus the HUGE number of users getting the reboot/optimization problem in the Google forums affecting the Nexus 5 & Nexus 6, it's definitely the software.

Thanks for the post. I thought the same, that some app must be causing trouble due to some misconfiguration. I've tried booting in safe mode and the problem persists. I'll try a couple things via ADB and if not I'll give up, lose all my data and wipe to factory state.
Hi All,
I'm the developer of Calendar Status
I'm not sure yet if my app is the cause for the issue but Ill happy to assist with whatever I can.
I tried to look for LRY47I but couldn't find anything .. (I did find LMY471 but not LRY471, is it typo?)
Did anyone install fresh copy (Downloaded from Play Store) and get systemui crash ?
Does anyone who restored a backup file and got this crash still have the backup file ? (can be found under sd-card/calendarstatus/preferencesBackup.xml the other files aren't relevant)
In case it's relevant, I didn't/don't have Calendar Status installed in my device yet I suffer from the System UI error.

Well
I know it isn't "Calendar Status bug", it is definitely an Android bug which is triggered by one of the configurations in Calendar Status (and in some other apps too)
---------- Post added at 06:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:22 PM ----------
I suspect this to be due to 'transparent icon'.
Is anyone who experienced the crash can confirm he had an application (any application) with transparent icon ? (transparent isn't like 'no icon', it looks like an empty spot on the status bar)
I know from one of the backup files which were sent to me it is the case, and might be why the app crashed after restore (the default is white icon while the backup file has transparent icon selected)

i'm currently using transparent icon with no problems. my guess is problem is a specific font/size/number of events configuration is the culprit.

It was a long shot...
The log doesn't say much (thank you Google).
Ill try keep looking for the issue, if anyone have more info ill be happy to get it. (backup files / scenarios to reproduce / any thoughts..)
Bug was found (and submitted to Android issues)
https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=163385&thanks=163385&ts=1428445417
What happened was a different notification (the one shown when no events available, like when setting the events interval to small value) was built in a specific way (as described in the bug).
The restore actually restored the interval value and this is why this bug happened after restore.
I believe there are more apps doing the same as I did (it should be fine), I hope the bug will help them to fix the issue (it is an easy workaround).
Thanks for the assistance guys.

Hello guys,
I've got a problem and after searching Google, XDA and the OnePlus forums, I decided to ask for help. Please help!
I reverted my OPO back to stock COS 13.1 from SultanXDA's build, last night (and lost my whole internal storage in the process - apparently the COS recovery Factory Reset is a FULL wipe, internal storage included, not just a data wipe. Thank you Cyanogen *presents middle finger* ) and everything works alright except for one thing: the theme manager.
I am on the latest COS update (screenshot attached) and the problem with the Theme manager is that, no matter what theme I have installed, it still shows up like the second screenshot attached.
When I try to apply it, it applies well, but it has no wallpaper. So, applying themes works fine, except for the wallpaper.
I already tried to clear cache, app data, restart, set storage permissions to allow for the app, even tried a factory reset, nothing helped. Did anyone else encounter this? If so, how did you fix it? If not, do you guys have any idea what to do? Please help, I'm already pissed off that I lost everything on internal storage and didn't make a backup because nothing should touch storage unless specifically requested and except for a bootloader lock/unlock, so I'm a few inches away from throwing this phone out the window, literally!
Help!
You talking about how it doesn't show the status bar correctly? I have this going on also...
As for the wallpaper, notice how it says customized, tap on your theme again and then tap reset.

It doesn't show the status bar, icons, wallpaper, anything.
I tried resetting it too and it shows up with no wallpaper, same icons as system etc.
A no go...
Any suggestions?
OK, so after searching franticly for the past few hours, I've found out what to do to fix this:
1. Go to Settings > Apps
2. Click on the menu dots in the right hand upper corner > Show System
3. Find Themes Provider > Clear App Data and Cache
4. Force close, along with Theme Manager and Chooser
5. Restart.
Hope this helps everyone else who might be having trouble with this

Hey guys,
I would like to know if anyone here has experience such an issue before. Recently updated my ROM from KangVIP Slim B357 to Nougat B575 Stock. Bootloader is unlocked, Root Access is given and everything seems to be working smoothly.
BUT
Whatsapp keeps disappearing on me! Ive tried installing it from the Play Store and manually via ApkMirror, but no dice. Once I reboot my phone, the icon is gone, both in the app drawer and the home screen.
The issue keeps happening, no matter how many times I keep reinstalling it. Whats interesting though: When I check /Data/App, there is a separate Whatsapp folder being generated with each new install. I have already deleted all folder after manually uninstalling Whatsapp, but a fresh install after reboot still doesnt stick after the following reboot....
So, anyone seen this before? Tried googling, but no luck there either.
Thanks in advance!

Notifications Issues on Nougat Android 7.0
WhatsApp Users
For all of you who have been lamenting the poor notification situation on Nougat, cried over the fact that you only see the most recent message making the whole "notification" thing completely useless, things are looking out.
In version 2.17.24 (grab it from http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/whatsapp-inc/whatsapp/whatsapp-2-17-24-release/ ), WhatsApp has properly implemented notifications on Android 7.0 and 7.1 Nougat devices.
Did I help you? A ''thanks :good:'' would be highly appreciated
thx for the reply, but Im afraid you misunderstood ^^ im not having problems with notifications of whatsapp but the app itself. it completely disappears without a trace whenever i reboot / switch off my phone! and i have already tried the latest 2.17.24 version of the apk, still the same....

trying move whatsapp to system > app or priv-app maybe fixing this problem,,,, but really this is strange issue.
i debrand my L29 to AL10 and to DL00 many times and don't have this problem it's normal if whatsapp not working ! but disappearing really wired
edit
maybe it's hidden are you using any other launcher?
im using nova launcher. ill check again if there are any hidden app options, but i doubt it. better to be safe than sorry though...
on my previous install (kangvip b357, al10, nova launcher) i had whatsapp installed as a system app for notifications to come through. did a backup with titanium backup, but it wouldnt restore system apps on nougat. so i just installed from the play store and then restored the data & settings through TiBu.
unfortunately, that didnt work for whatsapp, so i installed it from playstore and just copied the whatsapp folder from my previous install to restore messages and still have the media.
i have also tried converting it to a system app, both through TiBu and manually, but ive only tried system/app, not priv-app. on the previous install it was in system/app though and worked like a charm.
luckily, i only reboot my phone like once a week, so for the time being, whatsapp works as intended. just that i have to backup, reinstall and restore after every reboot...annoying!
