[Q] Everything force closes, files got deleted. - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Ok, somehow some files got deleted (i have no idea which ones) and now lots of things force close on me such as messaging, cannot download apps, phone calls force close after i hang up, car home starts when i turn on my phone, phone calls automatically start in speaker. It is pretty much just all bad right now. I was hoping somebody could tell me what to do. How to just reload all the stock stuff or something and just start all over. Any help would be appreciated. Also, I would say I am a noob at this kind of stuff.

You need to provide more information. What ROM are you using, what were you trying to do when you messed up the phone, ect.

MMS crashes or gets stuck ALL the time

Hey guys, my txt and mms stuff constantly freezes and gets stuck, I already applied the patch from HTC that was supposed to fix it and it made it worse it seems like, does anyone else have this issue? It doesn't seem to matter if I have alot of conversations saved or if Ive deleted them all, it still randomly crashes and gets stuck and it eventually clears but its getting to the point where I really hate this phone. When I first got it it was great this never happened, and I haven installed any apps or anything and its getting progressively worse, not sure what the issue is but I almost cant even txt anymore without a 50/50 chance of it crashing and stalling.
seriously no one else has this problem? I look at task manager and: Messaging (TXT & MMS) is always stuck.
I think all of us have that problem. I am being serious. The reason why I say that is because no matter the ROM (stock, custom, my own) I still have wonky issues with MMS, SMS and freezing, or Blank Screen of Death.
Sorry to not have a solution for you...
ah, I thought maybe I was the only one or something, hmm, that sucks, almost makes me want to just run android all the time, it just seems to suck the battery away and some stuff doesnt work great, unless Im not using the best android setup.
I wonder if its part of TouchFlo3D, Im gonna turn on windows default stuff and see what happens that way, Ill try that for a day and see if I Constantly crash/get stuck and have ot wait for minutes randomly on every sms
Ive had the same problem! Ive resorted to Valkryie's ROMs, they have lots of features and are REALLY fast! I love energy ROMs,and i use them like 60% of the time, but when Im going out for a while or like when im going on Vacation, im gonna use Valkryie, but anyway, havent had a problem yet with the sms freezing.

[Q] "Sorry! System process is not responding" error?!

hey guys.
i just got a strange problem pop up on my phone. i uninstalled some htc stuff that i never used. also uninstalled some programs i had that wasnt really using. restarted the phone and everything was working well.
i started trying all the apps i have shortcuts for (in LPP) just to make sure everything still works.
the phone rebooted in the middle of all that...and when it was done with the bootanimation rather than a lockscreen i got
"Sorry!
System process is not responding
Force close Wait"
i force closed it and it's been on a black screen until now. i can press the screen off button and the backlight turns off. i press it again, backlight comes on. same for the capacitative buttons. but no other response from the phone?!?!
what the heck can cause this?
last things i did was dial my wife to make sure the dialer was working. hung up as soon as her phone started ringing. then opened volume button controller, and finally setcpu. went back to homescreen and before i could open another app the phone restarted. and this happened.
could this be from opening setcpu?! but why? i've had it for months and never had a problem with it before? i have a nandroid from about a week ago but i've so many improvements since that i'd rather try to fix this first before restoring nandroid.
any idea what happened?!
for now i'm going to try to uninstall setcpu and reflash the kernel through adb in case it's that...
please give me ideas!!!
EDIT: adb sees the phone and i can see the phone's files without going into recovery...in that black screen/not working mode that it's on right now?!
What stuff exactly (and I mean exactly) did you delete? You will be surprised at what is important.

nothing that i didnt know what it was. only apps and widgets like calculator, browser, friendstream etc.
i rebooted the phone through adb shell and it loaded fine this time. i'm reading on some posts elsewhere as to what can cause this. i dont want this happening while i'm not home and i dont have adb shell to reboot the phone!
EDIT: i also deleted some of the sense stuff, like the sense launcher. i have LPP set to default.
also a couple of minutes before this happened i lost signal for a while and opera would refuse to see a connection even though i was connected to my wifi? dont know if this is related as it felt like a bunch of weird things happening at once when then phone is typically very well behaved...

I read in one thread that FriendStream is needed to handle a lot of the background synching. I would try reinstalling that and see if things clear up.
Granted, I could be completely off, so...

[Q] Crashes when playing music?

Hi there,
I'm posting this on behalf of my friend. He has an unrooted, stock Desire HD. Software number: 1.32.405.6.
Whenever using the music app, the phone will regularly crash whenever he changes the song, or plays/pauses it. The screen will turn off, like the phone is powered down, and will refuse to turn back on. No buttons do anything and the phone is unresponsive.
The only solution is to remove the battery cover, and then start the phone up again.
I've had a quick search but couldn't find anything! Any ideas how to solve this?
Thanks,
Alex
Sorry, I know this sounds like a cop-out answer but it often works:
Hard Reset. Not sure if it's the same on a stock DHD but should be under Settings -> Privacy -> Factory data reset.
Need to back up anything they want to keep (SD Card will be safe). SMS, MMS, Contacts if not sync'd with Google etc. will be lost. As will application settings and all downloaded apps.
After that, root it for them and install a custom ROM. Will be easy as they on an early ROM version.
I've already said the same things to him, haha ! But he would rather not reset it or anything.
He said he may consider rooting and putting on custom ROM's at some point.
Hmmm....
Other than (soft) rebooting the phone, trying a different SD card and 3rd party music app I don't know what else to suggest. I suspect it will require a hard reset though. That software version is old and buggy (but has one use as I mentioned).

EVERY app, stock or not, continiously resets(closes and reopens).

Ive sort of tried to search this one (How do I search JUST the Epic 4g section of XDA??) and found no one describing this problem the way I do...
This is my second time having this issue, and the fix for it last time was a pain in the ass, so id like a new fix-
Every app, every aspect of my phone, continuously resets/reloads. This is most noticeable with Hancent SMS, as it saves a message as a draft when you close out of the app... Well, right now, ill be typing and "message saved as draft" will constantly pop up at the bottom of the screen (about once every 2 seconds), and the phone will lag and it will erase 1 or two characters(making me look like I cant type :silly: ).
If this was the only problem, maybe I could live with it, but it affects everything. Launcher Pro randomly/continuously resets. The notification bar often resets while trying to pull it down. The phone app will close or freeze as soon as I start receiving a call. Sometimes it'll play my ringtone without a way for me to answer, other times I never knew I missed a call unless they leave a voice mail... And sometimes its worse than others, sometimes its fine for an hour, then something goes stupid and even a reboot doesn't help. For instance, right now, it was happy. I launched aLogcat to check it out and now the screen orientation REFUSES to stay one way. Even setting the phone down, it switches directions every few seconds, which makes aLogcat reload and therefor its unusable.
I haven't mentioned what im running because Ive had this exact same issue on a totally different rom, almost a year ago, but im running-
build - SleeperROM_3.0.0_FC09
kernal - 2.6.35.7-Shadow-FC09_v1.0
baseband - S700.0.5s.FC09
firmware - 2.3.6
Ive had this happen on EB13 on the EpicExperience ROM too.
SOO, if anyone has advice on how to fix this, id be extremely interested.
On the other hand, last time I had this issue I was convinced it was a corrupt piece of memory somewhere early in the OS, something I corrupt during install, and I went ahead and reflashed and wiped and reflashed and wiped and returned to stock and etc. etc. etc... and that seemed to work... actually, I dont know exactly what part of the process fixed it, thats why I do not want to repeat it unless I have to... BUT, if someone would like to explain/point me in the right direction. I'd like to know how to DELETE AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE and FLASH as CLEAN as possible. (that is, if no one else knows of a fix for my problem)
thanks all!
Err, well only thing I can think of is a truly clean install using Odin. This means do not restore any data from backups. Then slowly begin installing applications 1-by-1 through the play store website (for speed sake) to see if your issue creeps up again.
It also couldn't hurt to format your SD card too. Corrupt data on the SD card can cause some wonky things at times.
get another device...i hope u have the equipment protection plan
Thanks for the advice guys OFF TO THE ODIN MACHINE! haha.

Weird stuff happening on phone

Hi all, my mom has an LG G3 phone. Have noticed many weird things happening on the phone since today.
The notification panel won't slide down. Also, no notifications are displayed in the notification bar, even when there are notifications, like receiving sms or messages on Whatsapp.
The phone has a swipe lock screen. But, the lock screen won't work, even though it shows in Security settings, that there is one.
Calls are being made from the phone, but no calls are being received. For example, if I call the phone, it says that the person is busy and the connection ends. My brother had also tried calling... same thing.
No apps can be downloaded or updated from the Play Store.
I tried to connect the phone to the PC, but, since I cannot slide down the notification panel, there is no way to change the connection mode to transfer data.
I should mention that the storage on the phone was getting close to being filled, and the phone was showing the warning that storage was less and that some of the functions might stop working. So, are these things because of that?
But, I did delete a lot of photos and videos and uninstalled apps, and now there is sufficient storage for the phone to run properly, but it still doesnt work, and these weird stuff are happening.
I suspect from the weird behavior that there might be a virus. Is that so?
What do I do? How will the phone return to sanity? How do I backup the data... if the solution is to factory reset the phone. There are important photos and videos and whatsapp data which I would like to save before performing a reset.
Any help will be appreciated.
Any help please?
I am really sorry. The phone my mom has is Motorola Moto G3 and not LG G3. I got confused.
I request the admins to please delete this thread, and I am again really sorry.
