Can't copy/paste?

I've tried to clear the cache, do a battery pull, restart my phone and nothing seems to work. Trying to copy anything from any app will make it not respond and yields in a force close. Anyone know what I should do?

You have to tell us, what rom you are using? rooted? Did you freeze any system apps?

I have the same problem. My phone is not rooted
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda premium

Stock, not rooted (no ROMs are stable enough for me yet..mainly CM and AOKP) and I updated to the new ota

I forget exactly what causes it, but a factory reset is one of the only ways to fix it.

With all the work that goes into installing all the apps and stuff, Id rather root my phone xP

Here's a post that describes one method of fixing the issue, if you are rooted, by deleting all of the files in "/data/clipboard/". It also mentions clearing the data in the "TestService" app, but not everyone seems to have to do that step to fix it.

"com.android.systemui has stopped"

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.

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?

[Q] Apps Crashing Randomly After Xposed but that's just the beginning....

Hello there! i'm making my forum debut while extremely confused as to how to proceed with fixing my Verizon Galaxy S3, running the stock android JB 4.3. So there is no custom ROM.
I realize that this may or may not be similar to a plethora of posts about apps crashing around the time android 4.3 was released but i've upgraded to 4.3 less than a month ago. After diving through countless forums, i couldn't find one that addressed the same problems that my device had. They were all similar, but the solutions posed in those threads did not work with my device. Plus the problems i have are not isolated to one app.
I had just recently upgraded to android 4.3 which had unrooted my previously rooted device. After using Chainfire's method of rooting the SCH-I535, utilizing saferoot, i then installed the Xsposed Framework and that was really where my troubles began. A few days had passed while i was tinkering with a few modules like XBlast tools, XHaloFloatingWindow, Xposed Torch, and Wanam Xposed, and i had a good sense of what mods interfered with other mods and it was only last night when the problem first arose.
Without warning, a game that i play all the time stopped working. Literally in the time span of 6 hours (i was sleeping) something happened and the beginning of my problems started. Every time i would open the app, the app itself would close and i would get a message saying, "Unfortunately, Valkyrie Crusade has stopped." It was only a few hours later did i realize that Pandora, an app i use every day, suddenly stopped working and provided me with the same message. There was no error ID, and clearing the cache/data, reinstalling the apps, did not work. Once it became 4-5 apps that i normally use to get the message, i tried uninstalling the mods as well as the xposed framework but that also did not work. I also tried restoring the game as well as the other apps to a backup i'd made just the week prior with Titanium Backup but i still had the message coming up and the apps still did not work.
As a last resort i did a factory wipe/reset. During the initial set up, i opted to allow google to restore my apps (which i'm not sure i should have done) and after everything was restored, i tried using the apps, and i was met with the familiar message "Unfortunately, (app) has stopped.". I have run out of ideas. While i'm more tech savvy than most, i'm really just a novice when it comes to Android. How should i approach my next step? If anyone needs logs or anything like that, if you would be so kind as to walk me through the steps to get them.
Thank you, thank you, thank you in advance.
EDIT - 2/10/14
I have successfully resolved the issue (or at least, removed it) from happening. I bricked my phone but thankfully i was able to get into download mode.
Follow this guide! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2586319 - just be aware, this will delete all of your apps. backup all your propers and jump in.
This is the only method that i had success with. Other methods i tried are explained above and in the comments. Good luck and i hope everything works out!
If you had the Xposed frameware installed and you also installed Wanam xposed, this will help if you are experiencing apps crashing. I'm no expert, but i'm really glad to have resolved this as quickly as possible. I couldn't have done it without everyone! You guys literally kept my sanity healthy during this whole ordeal.
*NOTE* - The link to the guide above will lead you to a stock rom of android 4.3 for the SCH-I535. I'm not sure about other samsung devices but one user had success with a SCH-I605 (galaxy note 2) in the comments.
*ANOTHER NOTE*- i'm not in any way explicitly saying that the xposed framework and wanam xposed module are the cause of this glitch. Frankly i have no idea. But they seem to have been problems for a few people, myself included. If you want to explore this further, i'd suggest going to each of the respective forums. For me, i'm going to make sure i have a proper Nandroid before i do anything crazy. Lesson learned.
Again, Thank you!
PS- since i'm newer to this forum, i have no idea how to edit the title of this Q....haha if someone could let me know....that would be great.

I am having a similar issue.
Can you check your logcat to see what's going on?
I'm getting a segfault in webview code. I believe my issue is only in apps which provide a webview (e.g. mostly apps which display ads).
There were a flurry of updates to the google stuff (google search, google play services) as well as to a bunch of xposed modules over the past couple days. Sometime after this I noticed my problems starting.

This is actually my first time checking a logcat. What should i be looking for? I'm a little overwhelmed with all the colors and all the text in the one log that i made trying to open the app.
I filtered the log with the name of the app and also "seg" to see what i would get. CrashAnrDetector w/ the letter D inside a blue square that has (SEGV_ACCERR), fault addr #######.
was that what you were talking about? From what i could see there were crash reports with webview code when the app was opening up a website.

Sometimes xposed breaks apps or system ui. Disable it, reboot, and see if your problems persist, it's hard to read a logcat.

I think i'll try that next. I used to have TWRP but had to flash the stock recovery just to upgrade to 4.3. I'll try to get a clean copy of stock OS, flash and just start over from scratch. I'll be sure to let you guys know if i got it to work.

ran into a bump in the road. flashing a stock copy of android 4.0.4 did not work. Browsing through a few forums informed me that i'm unable to downgrade after i've taken the 4.3 upgrade. so next i tried to flash TWRP to boot into recovery mode and flash a rom from there. That didn't work either. I kept getting an authentification error.
As of now i can't get into download mode anymore. I get the yellow triangle saying Verizon detects unauthorized software. I'm able to get into recovery mode but i'm not sure what i can do with stock android recovery....
what can i do from here?
EDIT: I am able to get into download mode. I'm not sure why i wasn't before and now i am...
EDIT2: I have tried flashing the "official" stock android 4.3 but it fails everytime. I have also tried flashing twrp and cwm but i get a red Secure Check Fail: recovery. I suspect the bootloader has been locked. I'll look into ways of getting it unlocked again...

Same here. Disabling all xposed modules didn't work. Disabling xposed entirely didn't work. Doing both and then uninstalling didn't work. My guess is that along the way either xposed or wanam xposed made some sort of change that it can't roll-back when it's disabled/uninstalled.
I resorted to taking a TiBu update of everything and reflashing.
Once I get my battlestation fully armed and operational I plan on taking frequent nandroids and seeing if I can replicate the issue. Once I do that, (if I do) I can compare the last known good nandroid to see what messed up.

It's completely fixed! No apps (so far :fingers-crossed have crashed and i'm able to happily play my games again! sigh. that was refreshing.
Thank you to everyone! i will edit my first post to outline what i did and how i fixed it, finally....

during saferoot process your suppose to update SU then continue with finishing up the root process..took me several hours to figure this out..no errors now since I figured this out
Sent from my SCH-I535 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

That... Actually makes sense. When I used safe root I didn't check for any other updates because I assumed the program took care of that for me. That and because when I opened su there were no notifications to update. So maybe that could be a solution as well.

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.

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

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

Caution, Nov update causes SystemUI FC if you use Substratum.

So after that latest update, I kept getting systemui force closes's and I couldn't figure out why.. Well I narrowed it down to the Substratum themes I was using to modify the systemui.. I was only using the standard Samsung ones that we get to center the clock and change the icons to AOSP, but those were apparently enough to make it do that.. I tried multiple times to fix it but each time resulted in a hard reset and had to start from scratch..
Hopefully this saves some who haven't done the update yet..
Side note: I think it has something to do with Samsung Backup literally saving every little detail and modification we do within certain app's, and the security update didn't like something about that perhaps..

Same thing happened to me. Even after I uninstalled all the themes and substratum I still got the FC.

You have to uninstall all of the Substratum theme stuff before you do the OTA. Says so in the thread and in the play store description. Just an FYI.

I never used the system UI technically that is not supported on any Samsung devices with out root. It worked before, but was never officially support.

Use adb to uninstall the Substratum overlay apks. I think the system ui overlay apk is the most important one to uninstall.
Then it should reboot fine

I dont have adb

You can set it up on a PC really easily.
You could try booting into "safe mode" and uninstall ingredients the overlay apks that way.

I meant on the phone, activated. I do have adb on my phone and my computer.
Safe mode didn't work eigther.
I ended up performing a factory reset.
Thanks anyway to all

This happened to me last week. I called AT&T and they ran through all their BS, they didn't have a clue what was causing it so they had me take my phone to a Samsung Experience Store AKA Best Buy. The tech there was useless I knew more about Samsung phones than he did so I ended up doing a factory reset. After getting my phone all set up and my apps downloaded I rebooted my phone and the same, thing so I called AT&T and they sent me a new phone priority which took 7 days ?. I got my new phone set it up download my apps did the update yesterday and boom same thing. My first mistake was not coming to this forum and not doing a search.

(This 'Should' be common knowledge when using substratum or any third party overlay that interacts with system files.)
But you should always uninstall any system overlay before performing a software update.
Otherwise you risk facing the SystemUI Force close issue.
If you are rooted you can recover via recovery (TWRP)
if you are not rooted the only way to recover without loosing your data is to try this:
How to recover?
You will have to boot up in Safe Mode (comes default on every device)
Reboot your device
Hold down the Volume Down key while booting up
You are now in Safe Mode
Go into Settings -> Apps, then find the overlay you think is messing up and uninstall!
How to recover if the above doesn't work? (Credits to Evozi)
You will have to boot up in Safe Mode (comes default on every device)
Turn on screen and press power button. It will show "Shutdown", "Restart", "Emergency Mode"
Turn on "Emergency Mode", keep spam the checkbox so you can tick the checkbox to proceed the agreement. (phone is super lagging)
While you are in emergency mode, you have very limited access. Open any system app and go to recent task list.
Long press the app task, press the info icon and app detail page will appear.
Hit the back button and it will show your whole app list.
Find your overlay and remove all its storage and phone permissions.
Deactivate Emergency Mode and now you are back to TouchWiz.
Uninstall the overlay app.

I was testing new and old system overlays when the Note 8 first came out to see what worked and what didn't, the ones that didnt gave me this problem.
You will most probably find the first one does not work and the second is a pain to get working, but personally i have had the Emergency mode method work for me after a few trys. I gave up at one point and started downloading firmware files to be honest but i gave it another shot while waiting and it worked.
Hope this helps - Hit thanks so this post gets shown to other users coming here looking for help
