Snapchat doesnt work on my N5 running Pure Nexus all of a sudden - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Title. Any ideas what might be the problem and solutions?

Are you running exposed framework or are you rooted? If so, wipe and re-install your ROM. Make sure not to root or install exposed until after you've installed Snapchat and logged in. That's how I fixed the issue.

If you are running xposed framework.. just flash the xposed uninstaller zip, reboot your device and log in your Snapchat account. And then you can just reflash xposed framework if you want to. Snapchat doesn't get blocked due root access, it just tries to prevent you to run any modules if you have xposed installed.

Can't switch to ART

For some reason I can't switch to ART. When I select that in developers options, it prompts to reboot but afterwards when I check it is still on dalivk. Any idea? Running purity rom with Franco kernel.
Check the purity rom and franko kernel to see if it supports art
Do you haze xposed installed

Franco works fine. You'll have xposed installed so it'll just reboot back to Dvalik

Oh so do I have to uninstall xposed to switch to ART?

Yes.
I had this issue this afternoon. Couldn't figure out why ART wouldn't activate until I searched.
Uninstall xposed, select ART, then reboot, and then when all of the apps have been refreshed upon boot up, reinstall Xposed.

I just checked again. Didn't notice that it switched back to Dalvik.
Xposed will probably never work with ART

A handy hint I have just discovered... Uninstall Xposed from within the framework first, THEN remove it from your phone... Apparently Xposed leaves "things" behind :/

Hi,
Yes you need to uninstall from Xposed framework to restore the original "app_process" file and reboot..., then nothing is left on your phone.

I have a rooted nexus 5 running CM11. I kept getting this message before and I didn't know why so I posted here and someone told me to wipe my data so I did. That fixed the problem for about 2 weeks but it's back again. It happens so frequently now its very frustrating. It happens when I open an app, update an app or uninstall an app. Not every time but most frequently when updating. Why is this happening?! Please help and thanks in advance!
Just reflash your ROM or flash a different ROM and your problem should be fixed
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
Do you use Xposed or any theme mods? Probably something like that causing it.
As spinninbsod said, just dirty flash your ROM again or clean flash a new one.

Ok I'll try reflashing. And yes I have xposed and around 10 mods.

Cool, just make sure none of the mods are trying to do the same thing, like change battery icon etc.
If you're reflashing ROM it also might be worth taking a fresh back up before reactivating Xposed, just to save reflashing if something ***** up again

As soon as I open xblast I get the error. I just uninstalled it and I'm trying gravity box now to see if it was just xblast. And what do you mean what I was using?

You can change all that stuff in GravityBox and XGEL so might be best to just use those instead
Due to an update of an Xposed module, I had badly corrupted my systemui. The phone was totally unusable, and I could only press the OK button notifying the stopped event at startup.
Lucky me, I still had not updated to 4.4.3. Via Skipsoft Android Toolkit I updated to the last Android release, and my systemui got fixed. I did not choose to perform a complete wipe, so I actually maintained my previous apps. In relation to root, I did not loose it, but I had to reinstall SuperSU to get the non-official apps working again.
I hope this helps somebody else in my same condition, with no need to do a system wipe!
thank you. this helped me today.
woke up with the error. assuming its gravitybox and xblast causing an issue. will remove xblast.

Xposed does not actually "touch" or change SystemUI in any way. Xposed puts a couple of "files" in system which allows intercepted commands to be changed, without changing the actual code.
When you updated the ROM via a toolkit (PLEASE don't use toolkits by the way) you would have overwritten these Xposed files.
The simplest fix is to just remove the Xposed files

[Q] System.UI chrashes

I just rooted my phone through WeakSauce, turned s-off, installed SuperSU and installed TWRP. Now I installed Xposed Framework and GravityBox and occasionally my system.ui crashes. What can I do to stop these crashes?
Assuming you haven't modified much else, start by turning off some of the Gravity Box tweaks you've used. Or, turn them all off. Might be something in there causing it. If the problem goes away, start enabling one or two at a time until you find the one causing the problem.

You shouldn't use gravity box on a stock ROM. Use sense 6 toolbox. That could be causing your issue.

[Q] Nexus 5 SystemUI Crash. Need Help!

Hi Guys! Really hope you can help.
My Nexus 5 when I turned it on this morning booted up into 4.4.4 and suddenly showed that the process "com.android.systemui" has stopped. I rebooted several times and even cleared the cache through stock recovery and I still get the message. I have no idea what caused it. It was fine last night when I turned it off.
My phone is rooted and I do have a nandroid that is about two months old and I could boot TWRP using the Nexus Root Toolkit, but I was wondering if there is any other options? I would prefer not to lose anything up to this point.
I could kick myself for not making a more current nandroid. I've just been busy.
If the nandroid restore is the best approach could you refresh me on the exact options needed for both a clean restore with a nandroid and a dirty flash? I would probably dirty flash it first.
Hope you can help! Thanks so much!

First of all, stop using the stock recovery.
Since you had root access, were you using any modifications such as Xposed?
You can pull your internal storage with adb pull /sdcard/, and your app data with adb pull /data/data/ while in custom recovery.
You can also try pushing a stock ROM .zip downloaded from here to your device with ADB push, then dirty flashing it in recovery (obviously after flashing a custom recovery, also assuming you're on stock ROM).
Also, don't use toolkits. Click the first link of my signature and read some threads if you don't know how to use ADB/fastboot.
On a sidenote I do have xposed framework installed. However, I've never had any problems out of it and I have not modified anything in months.

Read my previous post, and since you're running Xposed try using it's safemode disable feature, explanation on how that works here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=51306764&postcount=9879
Do you think this is caused by Xposed? You want me to disable it to see I assume?

It's entirely possible that a module/Xposed itself is causing a SystemUI crash, it's happened to me before. I'd do it just to be sure, then proceed to what I said in my previous post if it still happens.
Ok its been awhile since I dirty flashed. If I have to do that, what are the exact things that need to be cleared to maintain data after recovery?

What do you mean? No data is lost if you dirty flash a ROM, it only reformats /system.
Custom recovery, download stock ROM flashable zip, ADB push zip to your device while it's in recovery, then flash it.
It looks like I may not have to flash anything. The Xposed Disable worked. But how do I proceed if I want to use Xposed still?

First of all we have to see if it's an individual module or Xposed itself causing the issue. List your modules?
Disable all your modules, and delete /data/data/de.robv.android.xposed.installer/conf/disabled using a file explorer (to re-enable Xposed like the post says).
Reboot with no modules active, and see if it happens again.
If it doesn't, enable one module, reboot.
If it still doesn't happen, disable the module and enable a different one, reboot again. Keep doing it until you find the culprit.
OK.
My modules are AC Display, Bootmanager, DS Battery Saver, Google Search API, Gravity Box (KK), Greenify, Immerse Me, Notify Clean, Swype Tweaks, Xblast Tools, and Youtube Adaway.

Continue with what I've said to try, a few of your modules modify the system and could be causing it.
Go to the xposed module repository and find which of those modules updated recently. I'd bet that's the culprit. Or at least it's a good place to start looking.
Ok before I proceed. I have went into Xposed and disabled all modules. I am now in Root Explorer and have dug down to the "disabled" file following the path indicated. Do I just delete "disabled" and then reboot?

Yep, delete the folder named "disabled"
It may be faster to see which module updated recently and see if that fixes the problem first before going one by one. What do you think?

Worth a shot. In the end it's probably a single module, or a combination of conflicting modules, that's causing the issue.
Looks like the latest updated was Bootmanager on July 26.

Try enabling them one by one by update date.
I'll reboot with all modules off first. Ok, I no longer am getting the error message. At least it's not Xposed itself!

IIRC, When you have a rooted device, Snapchat refuses to work? Has that been rectified?

Snapchat only refuses to work when you have Xposed installed. At least that's my experience. So Everytime I flash a ROM I make sure to log into Snapchat BEFORE I reboot for the first time after restoring Xposed and it's modules through TiBu.

It also blocks root users from logging in now. Install snapchat and log in before rooting.
I use a Titanium Backup of the app in its logged in state and restore that to any phone with root/Xposed.
