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.
how?

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?

I'm facing the same problem i'm unable to use my phone, kindly explain in details how to flash xposed recovery.
the problem appeared after installing an xposed mod.
I've just received an OTA for my P900 (bought in UK, completely stock, not rooted, P900.XXUANI1). Since then the tablet has been rebooting randomly several times a day. It's a funny sort of reboot where the tablet is back up and running almost instantly, not like on a usual startup. The screen goest black, the "Samsung" logo flashes for a half a second and it's back at the lockscreen. No blue-lines-logo animation that goes with a usual startup, but all the apps I was using are closed and the recent apps list is empty.
Is anyone having the same problems? Any ideas on how to fix this?
You can try a factory reset.

I know I probably should after an update anyway, but I'd hate to have to set up the tablet all over again, so I'll give it a few more days. I was wondering if anyone came accross this problem and found a different solution. Some people mentioned their ATT version crashing and how un-disabling an app has fixed it. I don't have an app called My Magazines though, so that's no good. I have a bunch of apps disabled though. Could any of them cause such funny behaviour?
I think it is a problem on several firmwares, and the devices are rooted.
I fixed it using the Xposed Framework and the Wanam addon.
Or you can try the http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/samsung-kitkat-systemserver-crash-fix-t2806046 add-on.
Thanks, this seems to be it. It looks like I'll be rooting my tablet when I get home today I should have done it ages ago anyway, if only to set the desktop user agent in the browser and get rid of adds.
Well, CF Autoroot didn't work for some reason. Now the system won't load at all (I can still get into download mode). Anyway, I described the problem here, if you can help, please let me know!

Thank you so much, you just saved me a trip to the service centre. I've followed through with the first three steps and it booted back into the system I wish I could give you more than one "Thanks".
I don't have time to go through the rest of the steps today since I still have some stuff to do for work, but if the tablet keeps "rebooting" I'll be back in a few days to root and report how it went with the Xposed module.
BTW, I haven't been able to find the file "openrecovery-twrp-2.7.1.0-v1awifi.img.tar" the guide mentions as no. 4, and no other twrp version for P900 (only P905) on their site. Do you maybe have a link for that?
And big thanks again!

I'm also at work so I'm not at my computer. I think I found that file by doing a Google search for it. Yes, let me know if it keeps rebooting. I have my own tablet rebooting issues (as you can see in one of the other threads, heh). I lost my root by reinstalling SuperSU one too many times... I blame it on trying to change settings before reinstalling because I was trying to achieve something.

I tried googling, but like I said, the official TWRP site did not have a file for p900, only p905. Here's the list of all the supported devices on their site, I only see p905 and 3g variants.
Then there's this site. I didn't realize that "v1awifi" is the part that refers to p900. I'm going to use the latest version from here today and try to get root again. If I succeed, I'll then try the Xposed package. I only had three reboots in the last 24 hours though (which is much less than before my first root attempt), so it might be a while before I can be certain the reboots are gone.
EDIT: I rooted in a few minutes without a single problem. Xposed and module installed, starting the clock for reboot-watch now I'll report back immediately if I get a reboot, or in 24h if I don't.
EDIT2: It looks like Xposed with the Samsung SystemServer Crash Fix works. The app posts notifications when a crash is prevented, and I've just had three in the last hour, with no crashes.
Best of luck. I tried that Xposed and Wanam module combo and it seemed to work for most crashes. However, I still get reboots when I wake it up from sleep after a full charge (from my experience).

Try the other app, the SystemServer Crash Fix. I've just charged up my tablet for the day, and when I woke it up while still plugged in, I got a crash notification. I've also had a few more yesterday. So far, not a single crash, it worked every time.

I purchased Titanium Backup and froze all the Knox related processes and apps, but I still got a reboot. So, I just did a factory wipe on the tablet and rerooted. This time it prompted me and asked about disabling Knox. This time I chose cancel instead of disable. Crossing my fingers now. If I still see a reboot tomorrow morning I will probably forget about rooting my tablet.

Just adding in. The SystemServer Crash Fix is an Xposed module why you also need to install the Xposed Installer. First validate Xposed, then the crash fix app, finally reboot and you're done. Finally, just pray that your issues are gone...

I went halfway between your approaches. I chose to disable Knox when asked, but I did not freeze any of the apps with Knox in the name in TB. First, I reset the default apps settings and then used TB to freeze a bunch of bloatware, but nothing with Knox in the name. The only such app currently frozen is Knox Notification Manager 1.0. Also, I never installed Wanam module, just SSCF.

I have the same problem, since I upgrade my T900, I have the same behavior you described.
Read a lot and tried everything, even Xposed Installer. Nothing corrected it.
I didn't test this firmware version it without root (can't live without it!).
If what you said that you have the random reboot without root, I really think that this firmware release is buggy.
I will now return to the previous firmware.

There's no doubt that Samsung is at fault. My tablet was stock, unrooted, in no way modified, and it still crashed several times every hour, usually when screen timed off and was turned on again, but also on other occasions. I would flash an older version too, but then I might have to do a clean install and set it up again, so I tried root + Xposed + SSCF first, and fortunately it worked. With the added benefit of Desktop User Agent in Chrome, no ads and a much snappier tablet. I should have rooted months ago

Adblock Plus version 1.2.1.325 works fine for me. It allows some unobtrusive ads through by default. If you want to block all you can, but you have to manually enable it in app settings.
If a particular app is still showing ads it sometimes helps to clear the cache.

You could always try installing them the right way round to see if it will make a difference. I think I installed both apps at the same time, but then I opened Xposed, activated it, rebooted the tablet, then activated the module (which showed up in Xposed automatically, IIRC).
First, you should double-check that the SSCF is activated in Xposed, if it is not, it won't stop the crashes.
I am unable to turn on WiFi on my moto g 1st generation US retail global GSM. I press the WiFi toggle button and it never goes to on - just switches back to off. In the WiFi settings screen, there is no information and again I am unable to switch the toggle button to on.
The phone has been unlocked, rooted and TWRP recovery installed. I am using stock android Kitkat 4.4.4. with the xposed framework and the gravity box module. I have reset to factory and re-installed some back-ups which were created before this problem started, but still I cannot turn the WiFi on even with the factory reset or with the backups installed. I have also tried a couple of those WiFi fixer apps.
My router has been tested with other devices and is working properly.
The phone is under warranty, but I live outside the US in Japan and presume it would be a hassle to return it for a replacement, so any help would be most appreciated.
Thank you.

Hey man, since you unlocked your boot loader, your warranty is already voided :/
Try flashing the stock recovery along with a stock zip for your model...maybe this is a kernel issue...

Thanks. Will give it a go. I have a feeling it's a hardware issue though.
I too have ran into this issue, and for me it was having mismatched libraries for WiFi in /system/lib for the kernel version I was running. I would try reflashing the kernel that came with the ROM you are running.

Thank you for the reply. I have install 3CToolbox and gone to the logs. It looks as if the error I'm getting is "Wifi Service (1076) Invoking mwifistatemachine,setwifienabled" followed by "Wifi statemachine (1076) Failed to load driver". Is there anything else I should look at?
I would say that points to the issue being with the firmware or kernel module involved. I would suggest downloading the entire stock firmware & ROM and flashing each partition in fastboot. The ROM generally only carriers the /system partition. If that still doesn't work, it's probably hardware unfortunately.

You should have no problem returning your phone for warranty if it does turn out to be a hardware issue (unlocked bootloader or not) if you follow this guide and re-locking your bootloader. If it's not a hardware problem then just that guide should set it straight.

Thanks. I restored to stock and the problem persists. One error during restore was that mfastboot would not erase user data.
Now the wifi will do one of these things: Will not turn at all (as before). Connect occasionally, then stop. Turn on, freeze and refuse to connect. I guess it must be a hardware problem, unless anyone has any other ideas. Thanks for all your help.
Forgot to add that you may have to flash the default bootloader animation to get rid of the warranty voided page on boot. Can't remember if that guide resets it or not

I got this update a few days ago on my rooted Tmobile G2. Applying the update bricked my phone, as it was stuck in a recovery boot loop. Had to use this:

to get it unstuck. Also, I tried the LG Support Tool to pull the update, but it was trying to download a 1.7gig update. I cancelled it before the install process in the fear that it would bork my phone.
Has anyone gotten the update to install successfully on their phone? (rooted)

OK found how to turn it off. Long press the update, App Info pops up, uncheck show notifications. Clear cashe and then reboot.
You can use stomproot (brute force method) to root this OTA. towelroot won't work. Before applying OTA, make sure custom recovery is replaced with stock recovery. Otherwise you will end up in boot loop.

Can confirm this works...thanks...autorec still works as well
If I have not installed a custom recovery, but just rooted the phone with AutoRec, will it soft brick my phone? Since I don't have TWRP or CWM, I would have no way to enter adb shell. So, it sounds like if I soft brick it, I'd have to restore factory settings to get it to boot, right? Are there any significant improvements to the 20g versus the 20e? Thanks.
I got this this morning and installed it...no issues whatsoever. Not sure what its for, but I got it.
Im stock unrooted.
I ended up going with the LG support tool method and installed the update (1.7gigs)...not really sure what the changed though. Root was lost, but I used Stump Root to get it back and everything is normal again. If anyone has the list of changes, plz post

As long as you deleted the update you can safely press the install button...it may or may not actually power off...but if it doesn't just reboot after pressing and the notification will be gone...also to prevent it from downloading in the future you can dial 3845#*80X# and click wlan test then ota setting and click disable...you can re-enable by going through the same process and pressing enable...works for most variants
Mine tried to update: it rebooted, said it was installing while showing a progress bar and then it stopped and restarted. Nothing changed.
Does anyone know what this update is? Preliminary to the lollipop update?
Any idea why my nearly stock system didn't take the update. I am rooted with towel root and several apps disabled and frozen with Titanium.

you press and hold on the update in the notification bar and app info will popup.

Same here, just rooted, no custom recovery and went through the update process. Completed update, still on e not upgraded to g
Plugged into LG Mobile Support Tool and updated that way, ran STUMPROOT and bruteforced. Rebooted and had root ^_^ Updated SuperSU binaries and rebooted once more and ran AutoRec. Now time to update everything again and remove the bloat they put back on.
Also to find the dialer code to update touch software, knock on isn't working. :silly:

From what I saw on androidpolice it includes in-flight wifi stuff and some patches. Probably blocking some of the older rooting methods
Took the update last night, i was rooted with stock recovery but it went through just fine. Now when i try to root via StumpRoot it says my device is rooted before i even do anything. I don't have root access though.
Anyone else experience this problem? I've already tried a factory reset but still no-go.
this "update" seems absolutely useless. however, it could be nice to get a flashable radio from it.

Well i managed to root it today with a certain methid...will post up a guide later after ive written it out...may see if i can further the progress now that ive rooted it.

I have the newer Model LGL16C/4.4.2/Baseband version M8610B-AAAANAZM-1.0.6060/Kernel version 3.4.0+/Build KOT49I.L16CV11a/Software version L16CV11a/"Lucky". Service provider is Tracfone, aka Crapfone. Attempts to root with Kingroot as well as Kingoroot failed, including several apps which claim to root your phone. I paid less than $10 US dollars for this phone and rooting it isn't high on my priority list, however rooting the damn thing has presented a bit of a challenge.
A working guide to rooting this phone would be great.

Hey mate,
I hate to be like a noodge, but would you be able to explain how you rooted? Would be so much appreciated.

Hey so i spent forever trying ro find a root that would work on this. Or a custom ROM anything really. Try going into McAfee Security, setting up an account, go to settings and disable the lock down device option. That was the problem for me at least McAfee was blocking any root from installing. From there i rooted my lucky with kingroot one click root. Hope this helps!
The Easiest Way To Root Your LG Lucky Without a PC
Easy way to install SuperSU on your LG Lucky
Just follow directions
Use KingRoot 4.5.0 app - google KingRoot apk all versions. Download and install apk.
Google replace kingroot with supersu. There will be a few sites popup, Mediafire is where the original .zip file is hosted. You can even search "how to replace/remove kingroot with supersu" here on XDA for more info.
Once you have downloaded the .zip file be sure to extract it to your INTERNAL sd, the script in the zip will not work from your external sd.
Open the extracted file and copy the mrw file to the internal storage, the path should look like /storage/emulated/0/mrw.
Now go to the play store, download and install Terminal Emulator. I use the one by Jack Palevich as it is only 551kb and easy to use.
Open the terminal emulator and type "su" in order to grant super user permission to the emulator,
On the next line type "/system/bin/sh - /storage/emulated/0/mrw/root.sh" and press enter.
Now the script will run and open up SuperSU automatically. Install binary when prompted with the "normal" option. Choose yes when it asks if you want to delete other superuser apps. (this removes kingroot).
Before rebooting phone, go into the settings of SuperSU and enable pro mode, change icon if you wish, enable survival mode, enable su during boot. I think you have to restart app at this point, can't remember as I did this months ago. Then restart the SuperSU app, go back into settings to Install SuperSU into system. Reboot phone,
When phone reboots, this is when Kingroot is finally uninstalled. Your phone will still be rooted with SuperSU. At this point you may wish to update SuperSU as this is version 2.46 and the newest version is 2.71 Beta. You can get the newest version of SuperSU from the thread here on XDA.
(thanks MrWolf for the script to make the change and thank you Chainfire for SuperSU, FlashFire, CF.lumen, etc...)
LGL-16C successfully (so far) rooted using Kingoroot.exe (latest version). Had to change from mtp to camera on USB then was recognized. Have SuperSU 2.72, SuperSU Pro, BusyBox Pro, and Xposed installed with Xblast and Lucky Patcher running. No custom recovery or roms available and I have searched hi and lo. Was a Net10 $15 phone with nothing to lose, so...will try more stuff out another day and post again.

Until any source is made there will be no recovery or ROM and tbh I don't have the time to dig into it currently.. The positive with rooting though is removing the bloat

Hi. Could you tell me how you installed supersu after rooting with kingroot? Thanks
Well I have root and supersu installed but it won't update binary. Any help out there? Thanks
Hey everybody. I did it!! Just root with kingroot 4.5 and replace kinguser with super sume. Worked great. All kingroot stuff is gone!! Ive rebooted 3 times to make sure and all is good.
Well if anyone is interested in looking at the source code, lg support has downloads available for nearly every phone they've ever made.
http://opensource.lge.com/osList/list?m=Mc001&s=Sc002
The file for the LGL16C is on page 2. Every thing seems to be listed alphabetically so it's easy to locate.
I still have my lucky and actually use it often although I no longer have it activated.
@ cecnwv,
Thanks for the link. Using Ares 11 and got "IP banned for 6 hours,try again later" after dbl tppng yellow icon. I did something wrong. Not at my PC. (unfortunately)
Thanks for any enlightenment,
michaeltheclyde
Two 10a LGL16C Tracfones, one free (recon from Tf) and one new $14.95 @ eBay from Best Buy, rooted with everything that has Google in the name frozen (TB) but no image to restore. (twrp)
Has anyone made a complete backup of their system apps using Titanium Backup? Being that one can't use fastboot/download mode (this phone has it locked out and a special USB cable is required) so my backup options were limited. I thought I did a full backup with Titanium Backup, but apparently lost it as I only found a small partial one on my PC.
Issue is I had uninstalled some bloatware and integrated updates for a few apps. But after factory resetting the phone it is behaving a bit odd. The notification bar doesn't really work anymore (apps still able to use sound/vibration to make a notification, but nothing appears in the notification bar) and I am unable to call the phone because it never rings and it immediately goes to voice mail. So the phone app is borked too.
Plus soft button to the right of the home button (I forget what it's called) doesn't bring up the app history anymore so I can't close background apps. (the volume buttons also don't really do anything anymore. Normally using them causes the volume bar for ringtone to appear and if using a media app, the volume bar for media audio comes up instead. But now nothing happens).
The phone is in a pretty broken state and even doing app updates from Play Store doesn't work anymore. Was gonna try and look around if someone has some app/data backup of the system apps installed. This is a TracFone branded phone and is currently running Android 4.4.2 (Kernel version 3.4.0+). Which is the last Android update they made for this phone.
Perhaps there's a single service/app that is responsible for notifications/volume bar that is borked. But I have no idea which system app is broken so a full app restore is my next best option.
The first thing wrong I noticed after resetting it was that the intial setup screen would return everytime I rebooted the phone. (only way i could get that to stop was freezing it in Titanium Backup). So maybe related to that app somehow. I don't recall ever uninstalling/merging update data for that perticular app though so it's probably a side effect of a different app going haywire.
EDIT:
Ok looks like I resolved the issue. I just removed the LGStartupWizard.apk then did a factory reset via Volume Down+Power button combo. It boots straight to home menu now and everything works. I guess the LG setup wizard thing got borked somehow. No more setup wizard but verious things like google account and whatnot can be configured manually via settings so no real loss.
All the missing things like the app history button, lock screen, notification bar, etc are now working as a result of resetting after removing LGSetupWizard.apk.

Awesome, this worked for me too, though the issue wasn't exactly the same. When I got the phone it had already been rooted with Kingo at some point and I noticed after resetting it that I had similar problems (it may have had the issues before the factory reset too, I just didn't notice one way or the other). Anyway, I was getting slightly different misbehavior. No recents key, yes, but also no response from the Home key. Pull-down notifications bar was mostly working, but with no visible notifications and I couldn't press the Setup "gear" in top right. My volume buttons and Play Store were fine, though, but I'd noticed that when I tried further factory resets (from the menu, not via hard reset) that it wasn't "really" resetting, as any downloaded files/etc. remained on the phone. I'd tried freezing LGSetupWizard already, but as you noted, that doesn't fix it for whatever reason. Deleting altogether does. Yay. I do wonder what the hell is happening during the root or reset that triggers this problem, though. It behaves as if Setup Wizard was just never completed, so you remain "locked out" of most of the same functions that are unavailable during setup normally. Oh well.
Anyway, as old ten-dollars-or-less type phones go, this isn't the worst I've ever used by a long shot. Heck, it's arguably better than a few other slightly bigger/newer/pricier crap-phones out there! (Looking at you, ZTE Legacy/Quest...) FWIW, I had "ripped" all of the APKs from /system/app and /priv-app for some reason back when I first got this thing, so if they'd be of use to anyone I'll be happy to upload all or individual files. Hell, if anyone can tell me how to do a full ROM dump I'd be happy to do that too, because there's definitely still no official stock image available online that I could find a trace of. (Granted, I don't know if there'd be any way to utilize a non-official backup image anyway or turn it into a flashable KDZ, but that's not my point...)
Thank you, I got my lucky rooted! I'm wondering if anyone ever found any custom ROMs or recoveries for this device. It seems like this was never popular for any of that, but thought I'd ask. Thanks.
