Ive had this problem with multiple ROMs after a week or two using a ROM when the phone boots up everything starts to force close. Including google frameworks. does anyone know what might be causing this? Its happened with Simply AOSP V3.1.1 and syndicate 1.1.0 fully loaded. My phone is currently rooted on EC05 the only ROM that it hasnt started happening on is BlazeROM V2. I always flash back to that and have no problems.

Are you pulling the battery without waiting for full shutdown after vibe? This will cause fcs on ROMs that have journaling off. Check your ROM for how to turn journaling on because it is different for some ROMs and try it. To be safe clear all your data and Dalvik cache. You can go. Into manage applications and clear data for apps that are still fc'ing.
Do you BONSAI?
Thats definitely it, I have a second battery and I dont always wait for it to vibrate after shutting it down to change it. So is that something that I HAVE to do? or can I do something with the journaling you were talking about? what is journaling?
Use my zip in the dev section, it will turn journaling on for any ext4 rom...

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Journaling_file_system
what I gather from journaling is that it makes sure that if files are modified (a setting is changed, etc.), if it gets interrupted while the file is being modified (like if you pull your battery it gets a hard reboot), the file won't get corrupted. keeps the file in like a cache until the change is finalized. Having journaling enabled makes the device a bit less responsive (because it is managing this cache) but protects against corruption in case your phone reboots unexpectedly.
good example would be video games: how it tells you if you see this symbol, don't power off your system until it is gone or your save file could become corrupted.
There are 3 types of journaling in ext file systems, journal, writeback and ordered. Basically all write entries are written to the journal first in journal mode then to the disk and the journal is replay in the case of a crash making data and metadata current. In writeback mode only metadata is stored in the journal then data to the disk, and can result in old data in case of a crash but no corruption, in ordered mode it writes the data to the disk first, then journals metadata but keeps track of the grouping in "transactions". This is the default mode, and the most efficient and safest. Slightly slower than writeback, much faster than journal. Will result in current data and no corruption on a journal replay.

So will enabling the journaling from your link put the phone in journal mode or ordered mode?
and would I just save the zip to my SD and run it from recovery mode?

Do what the man says. Since I turned journaling on I never get FCs. Still good practice to wait for the vibe to change batteries.
i had this problem with a battery i bought online not providing stable enogh power to the device, do you have a non official battery?
Same Here...
I have had similar issues but it is a bit different on AOSP than Syndicate. After a few weeks or when the phone gets too hot, I will get the continous Force Close messages on Syndicate. I have not yet seen that on AOSP, but do get the Force Close errors when an app needs to scan the SD card. After using these two ROMS I really dont want to go back to stock but am considering doing so...

This could be one of those "all of our Epics are different" things. If I run a ROM with no journaling, even if I add nothing or change nothing, I start getting force closes after day 4 or 5 every time. I can't figure out why and I prefer not to have Titanium make a nightly backup so I run journal on and don't get force closes anymore at all. Maybe if you wipe re-flash and enable journal you won't have the issues anymore

What ROM(s) are you using? From the Terminal Emulator, have you tried running fix_permissions? I run Redemption, and when I install a new version of it that's the first thing I do, then reboot.

I'm running redemptive 1.9 and I've tried multiple other roms and still have the same problem. Fix permissions didn't work either. I get an error with the packages.XML file. This problem happens no matter what rom I try.
Hey guys. I had the same $#it happen to me last week! I was sitting on the couch and cleaning my rooted Droid with stock Rom... and when I held the power button to shutdown phone I got a long vibrate instead of the usual short one! This got my attention, and sure enough, when I finally took out the battery and reported, I got the UIDs are inconsistent.... error along with the I'm feeling lucky button. Force Closes, galore! I fixed it by doing a hard reset and basically returning my phone to factory setting. Still rooted, but lost all my contacts,favorites, texts, apps... basically everything that wasn't on the SD card...:-/ still trying to restore all my settings... it was perfectly set to how I wanted it.

Posting here since I cannot yet post to the actual ROM forum.
I'm running the Synergy ROM, RC1 and have a couple of issues. First though, thanks to the DEVs for all of their time and efforts, this looks to be a very good ROM!
I've been through most of the 200+ pages on the ROM's thread and did not see any information that may help (except turning off auto rotate of the home screen), but it's possible I missed.
The main issues I have are slow response issues. They are:
Slow response when I pull down the navigation bar.
Slow response when hitting one of the soft buttons (i.e., the + button to launch the app specified by the settings in Rosie).
Very slow response when I come out of a game that was in landscape mode. It takes a couple of seconds for the screen to switch from landscape back to portrait (after flipping the phone to portrait) and then another few seconds for it to put all the icons back on the home screen (home screen is blank when I come out of the game). I did turn auto rotate off and that has helped, but was wondering why there was such slow response without it.
Google apps such as Maps and Calendar that are started by another application, but do not shut down the starting app exists. This, of course, drains the battery and was not an issue on the stock rom.
When I flashed the rom, I did do a factory reset and erased all other caches. My apps and app data (not system data) were restored via TB.
I have also frozen the following apps via TB:
Flash
All live wall paper apps
Stocks
Flickr
FM Radio
News
Stocks
Smoke & Visualization Wallpapers
Voice Dialer
Voice Search
Thanks!

When you flash a new rom, only restore Apps using titanium backup, restoring data too will cause problems.

Absolutely correct. On top of this, the other reason you may be seeing slow response would be the fact that this is a very large rom, and takes up more space in your usable memory than most roms. What I have done to *somewhat* alleviate this issue when I'm running the synergy rom is to move all of the apps that I can (except for those that I use widgets from) to the SD card.
Just my recommendation

My thought was that when restoring an app, such as WSOP Texas Hold'em, I also wanted to restore the data so it restored games won, amount of money, etc.
Is that data what you are saying I should lose when flashing new roms?

Quite a few of my apps are on the SD card. I have 313MB free on the internal storage. Should that be enough to reduce some of the lag.

HELP!!! I flashed synergy rom last night and today, it goes to the boot animation screen and freezes. It just shows the synergy rom bouncing around and wont go anywhere from there. I tried doing a recovery through bootloader, but it wont let me move down from fastboot. Did I just brick my phone or is there any other way to get past this screen? can i plug my sdcard into the computer and delete this boot animation and if so, where would I find it? Please help, it would be GREATLY appreciated!!!

If you can boot into recovery, you did not brick your phone.

Does anyone else have issues with anything that requires data syncing (Facebook, Twitter, SMS, etc) stopping unexpectedly? It seems to happen at around 30% battery and the only way I've consistantly stopped the problem is to wipe and reflash Synergy Rom.
Any ideas?
Yea Idk what's going on with it after about an hour I would get android.process has stopped and needs to force close. I can't even use any app as that constantly pops up. Great ROM but unusable at this point.
Did you do a complete wipe before you installed it. Most of the issues I have seen arise because a complete wipe has not been performed. If you like the rom, do a complete wipe (factory, partition and dalvik) and reflash it.

This is after a full wipe, twice. Once the battery gets to a certain point, everything starts crashing and never recovers no matter what I do. Battery pull, full charge, cold restart. Nothing works.
Edit: I've also noticed that the GPS is locked on and I cannot shut it off.

Yea I also did a full wipe two different times. I didn't notice it happening once the battery gets to a point I just know that after an hour or so of use it was unusable.
1. If you use DualRomX2 would that possibly speed it up? Because doesnt it install Roms on EMMC?
2. Im also really frustrated by the slow response on alot of things like right rosie button and notification pulldown.
3. Video recording for me is just awful. Im not sure about actual quality but the framerate for sure is horrible. I compared a video i shot on stock and with Synergy and there is a HUGE difference. Synergy video being much worse.
Great Rom just plenty of little annoyances.
Synergy ROM loading issue
Flashed Synergy ROM last week and was very impressed. However, saw where 3.0 Sense items were missing and realized after reading several other posts that the carousel +widgets.zip should have been loaded with the ROM. So I reloaded the ROM and widgets through AMON-RA Recovery (Followed all of the original instructions I had followed the first time I loaded the ROM). Everything looked fine until I rebooted the system. Now Synergy ROM start-up screen loops over and over. At this rate the fill battery I started with will run out, and I'm not sure what will happen at that point.
Anyone have any suggestions for this issue? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
Options:
a) Pull your battery, boot into recovery, format data/wipe cache/dalvik cache/format boot/format system, & flash a different rom.
b) Pull your battery, boot into recovery, format data/wipe cache/dalvik cache/format boot/format system, flash Synergy again, reboot.
c) Pull your battery then turn on your phone like normal.
d) Pull your battery then boot into recovery, wipe cache/wipe dalvik cache, then boot into rom.
Edit: I don't use Amon_Ra, when I refer to "recovery" I was referring to CWM. Hopefully someone with experience comments in regards to Amon_Ra recovery.
Yeah I don't have too many issues with it... last night it got kinda squirrely so I fixed permissions in recovery and re-flashed the Warm Theme without wiping any data, it's been all good ever since.
The ROM is my daily driver... I really do think that these issues are app-related. There is something that certain apps do that this ROM is not built for, I'm just not sure what it is. It's been real good to me overall though, battery life and all.

SlimSnoopOS, as it turned out I pulled the battery and rebooted into Recovery after a few hours, but thanks for the direction. These were the exact things I did. The reason I used AMON-RA instead of CWM is that Synergy says in a number of places that it only loads with AMON-Ra (and I'm a coward!),
Awesome, glad everything is functional again!

First off are you undervolting? Secondly if you have an issue like this it can be the cause of a few things. Did you restore data with Titanium Backup?
Also, even though it may not be specific to this rom if you do a search on here or google for random reboots you may find solutions that others have had. I understand the rom may not be the same but quite honestly this is a semi-common issue with custom roms and this question has been asked quite often.
Good luck and when in doubt wipe/format all and just load the rom and run it for a few hours without any apps
Did you put that theme over a stock rom?
odexed?
I put it over the blazer rom which it was made for. I cleared delvic cache and cache partition and it hasnt rebooted since and that was hours ago. Is that something you should do every once in a while to keep it running good?

Also no I am not undervolting or overclocking or anything like that. All system settings are default.
Well I thought everything was ok with the phone but it is restarting again! I am getting really frustrated I love this phone but I dont know how much more of its bull**** I can take! I am getting ready to throw the ****ing thing out the window! How would I know if I am undervoltin or anything like that? I did not mess with any system settings when I installed the rom.

I did not do a full factory wipe because in the directions he said to just flash the blazer rom 2.0 then a modified calkulins wipe then flash the 3.2 He said no data wipe was required.

If you really want to fix your issue you have to troubleshoot to death. Do it all, format sdcard, do a clean install and anything else you can think of. Thats the best way to troubleshoot. Just nandroid your setup now and use TB to save data and go for it....
Don't worry bout asking us since a response may not come fast enough so just jump right in and get your phone up to speed. Or your can odin a stock EL26/13/30 rom..
Hey guys, I have been having a ton of issues with my phone lately and I am at a loss on what to do from here... I am always having lag, random reboots, and on occasion complete data loss and nothing but force closings on every single app.
I have tried numerous roms both AOSP and Sense and several different kernel combos all with the same problems. My ROM install process is as follows...

2) Transfer files needed for flashing to SD
3) Run VR_SUPERWIPE.zip 3x
4) Flash ROM
5) Flash Kernel
6) Flash GAPPS (if AOSP)
7) Flash dta2sd
8) Reboot

I usually get to the setup screen and I am able to get everything setup such as wifi and such. I let the phone sit for about 5 minutes then I reboot and procede with the rest of my setup process such as app installs, themeing, etc. On my initial reboot I go into recovery and fix permissions. 7 out of 10 times my phone will get borked right here and I can never get back to the system and I just get stuck at the white evo screen... I have tried cache and dalvik-cache wipes with no luck.
I have even unrooted my phone and tried to run everything as stock with the same results. I am pissed and frustrated and I do not know what to do anymore short of taking the phone and smashing it in to the ground and running it over with a truck
I hope someone has some idea of what is going on and I can get my issue resolved and if not tell me how to get a new phone out of Sprint
Thanks in advance!

I have tried a different method of flashing by rebooting after flashing one item at a time and it seems to have worked for the most part... My issues all started back when I tried pb15 of Deck's ICS build and all hell broke loose from there.
I really hope my method has resolved it self but if not I am not sure what to do with Sprint about getting a new phone. I have TEP but I don't have $100 due to a work injury and I don't have any income at the moment.

Try the same setup with out dta2sd.
Had the same issue a while back and it was a2sd, everything would be fine until a reboot. Not sure what it is but the a2sd was the culprit...
Also, what ext are you using? ext 4 will bork in the same manner, make sure you are on ext 3.

I did try ext4 but like you did figure that was part of the problem so I hooked up my card to my pc and did a full format and repartitioned my card to ext3 with no swap. I did try not going with a2sd but it seems that if I flash that at the very end it seems to work. I never had a problem flashing everything at once but I guess my phone is just being a ass now
If you wipe 3x and superwipe 3x that is over kill one wipe each is safe and fine..
Do you have that issue on all roms? Sounds like something isn't playing well on your phone.

If someone can solve my app issue there will be a reward in the form of a donation! How's that for an incentive?
I understand I posted a similar thread before to this but I wasn't resolved and I am completely out of ideas.
Which ever rom I'm on, which ever kernel, after a random amount of time using my phone an app with crash,
which seems to set off a chain reaction and then all my apps begin crashing.
It's usually google apps that start it, such as messaging, play store or contacts. Apex launcher also often gets affected.
Killing all apps and restarting the phone occasionaly fixes the problem for a little while.
I have used different kernels, used different android builds, factory reset the phone, wiped the sd card, cleared cache etc etc. Is this a hardware issue?

Code:
unmount /cache
mount /data
mount /sdcard
mount /system
format /cache
format /data
format /sdcard
format /system
format /system
mount USB storage
Which implies that everything is unmounted? Surely this can't be right and this is why I cant write to SD? Mounting them fixes the writing to SD problem temporarily.
When I get problems occuring next time I'll try to capture screenshots. I really hope someone has an idea what's going on here, if it's hardware I guess I'm screwed as the phone is out of warranty? :S
I have attached logcat's from around when the crashing happened last time, maybe someone can skim through them and identify the issue? Thanks
did you try different gapps???
I've tried lots of different gapps, the miui Rom im using now came with gapps as well
Both of your observations are normal, no problem there.
App force closing does not relate to kernel.
You should make a logcat when the apps start crashing so someone can assist you in diagnosing the issue. (Google it if you don't know how)
Also try re-download the ROM, possibly could be corrupted ROMs that you flashed.

Ok I'll make a logcat now, cheers bud. And I have tried with multiple different roms so it seems unlikely its a download issue
Heres the files. It took me ages to get any results, its typical when you want it to crash, it doesn't! Can someone more tech savvy then me have a thumb through them and try to identify the issue? Thank you very much
I think there is errors in both the logs but more in the second!
Now offering a reward for some help leading me to resolving this issue
bump
Taking a look, check back tomorrow.

Cheers man, really appreciate it!
If it helps, my hunch (baring in mind I'm not that savvy with this) is something to do with partitions unmounting themselves? when looking in CWM
sometimes they are mounted sometimes they aren't
That error in the bootloader is common for all phones, simply unplug the USB and replug it in.
The USB not mounting is caused by old CWM versions, here is the latest.
About the second problem, it seems you are using custom ROMS and the problem started by the SQL management (i would eliminate hardware as a cause)
But please inform me which Rom you are intending to use so I can confirm the procedure, and whether its Sense/Sense+/AOSP.
For now, try the following:
- Re-Install the Rom with SQL tweaks ON,EXT4 tweak, and FORCED GPU rendering OFF.(if options available)
- DON'T restore anything from the system partition
Are you using the latest CWM recovery v5.8.4.0?
The error you get in bootloader has nothing to do with apps crashing and is totally normal. Even I get the same error.
And like the guy above me told, the FC's are caused by SQlite trying to write to readonly databases.
Similar problems to this have been fixed by wiping phone. Have you restored app using e.g. titanium backup?
And also, try formatting sd-card using pc, not recovery.

I am using the most up to date version of CWM 5.8.4.0
What exactly is SQLite anyway?
Currently I'm using ADRH The ICS version, in the instilation I checked all the tweaks so I expect the EXT 4 tweak was on.
What do you mean about restoring from the system partition? I don't restore anything and still get the problems.

I have wiped using - Factory reset (bootloader), factory reset (CWM and factory reset in the phone (running sense)
And nope I left titanium backup alone. Do you mean as in mount storage and format in windows, FAT32?

Don't ever wipe from the bootloader if on custom roms/recovery.
Don't check all the tweaks, especially the force gpu rendering, this one is known well for causing FCs.

Unfortunately, i am still having the same problems that you are, and still cant seem to get my phone to boot, but i am on the latest Hboot 1.31 but still getting all the same apps crashing as you are
I am hoping for a potential Jelly bean RUU to released maybe?
try running in safe mode and see if a 3rd party app is causing this. Hold the turn off option in the power menu.

Alright I'll remember that next time haha! How come anyway?
Installed again, no tweaks, stripped it down with rom cleaner, disabled gps services and haven't (yet) synced my google account just to be safe, we will see what happens

It's a real pain isn't it! Yeah man the sooner the new RUU (1.28 first please!) come out the better.

I get this error before installing any apps usually so I dont think 3rd party apps have the chance to cause trouble
First problem which I have had before on a sense rom, Pressing the send button on a message does nothing. This usually leads to apps beginning to crash
Followed by a random screen 'turn off' and phone reboot followed by being stuck in splash screen
..Yep, still getting crashed. Can I reformat the whole memory? What would be the best way to go about this?

You could reflash the RUU file to get your phone back to stock and work from there. --this rewrites all partitions
You need to downloading it (there's a thread in android development listing them all), relock your bootloader, and run it as administrator from windows.

would this work for someone on jelly bean?
