Hi, I received a Samsung I9000. Would not go past "s".
Used odin to flash to Gingerbread- still would not boot. Flashed to stock 2.2.1.
Takes long to boot, then force close keeps on popping up for all applications installed. After startup, I noticed the same user data and applications on phone. I tried *2767*3855#. No luck. Booted into recovery and wiped cache and formatted, no luck. What else can I do?

AFAIK as long as you still notice same user data on phone, you won't get any luck repairing force closes.
Try to wipe data/factory reset first, then do flash any stock Gingerbread with repartition checked using Odin.
After that, you should have a clean ROM without FC.
Then it is best to redownload your installed apps from market.
If you would like to restore your apps using Titanium Backup try just to restore app only (without data).
Good luck and cheers...

i find that the nightly build is cool and is awesome. the problem is when i use system panel task manager, the phone reboots. i dont know why and its more laggy than the cm7 mod please tell me its me doing something wrong not my phone's or the mod's fault.
and it svery irritating that it keeps hanging. please someone help me with the nightly mod thing i want to use.
Go for nightly#205. And do a full wipe including data,cache,dalvic cache, and perform a factory resetting from cwm before you flash the nightly. Also use latest buzz kernal so that you can overclock your phone.

Lol you may have used beta 4 script, try beta 3, need to use atleast ext3 as your secondary partition. Try it with latest original cwm recovery. 5.xxx to partition. Do a clean install after partition.
And a personal suggestion. S2e app in market is good than dta2sd, though it have not much functions, but what it have, it does its best. I use it.

Dude, explore options in cwm, don't do formatting boot, system, data, unless you learn what it does.
Options may vary from version to versions of cwm. So you have to say which cwm version you have. Mine is latest 5.xxx.
In it, data- factory format( user data or wipe user data, which ever it is called) is in main menu. And dalvic cache wipe is in advanced menu.
Lol you must carefully read topic named" complete wildfire index, then ask doubts, after all you can learn new things from every topic.
Your kernal will be in that topic. Check it out.

now i got another problem. my wildfire will hang every now and then and i have to pluck out the battery and switch it back on. its very irritating and having to keep doing that will kill my bat very quickly so could anyone tell me any solutions?
To solve your problem, you must say. Your current configuration, rom, kernal, radio, tweeks, and what have you done just before you got the error

well i am using the cm7 nightly build #205. kernel is buzz-kernel-2.6.35. i just downloaded some apps that were in my phone when i was using cm7 stable. and there wasnt a problem. do i have to upgrade to latest build and kernel? oh and just a question. if i want to upgrade from #205 to #208, do i have have to like wipe my data and cache and dalvik cache? i wouldnt wanna redownload and change everythin again
You can install the nightlies on top of one another without wiping anything, sometimes it seems better to wipe the cache to me but not always necessary, leave data alone.
Word of warning though, always make a nandroid backup before installing a new rom, although they're stable they are still called experimental for a reason, and sometimes (not very often) things can still go wrong.
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using xda premium
i wiped both the dalvik and partition cache and installed the #208 nightly build and the latest kernel but then the phone would just restart automatically. do i have to wipe data as well?
Yes do a "Wipe Data / Factory Reset" in Clockworkmod if it is giving you issues. Then try a fresh install and check again for instability.
Note - Performing a Wipe Data / Factory Reset will erase all data (Except SD Card)
well i not sure but i think the problem still occurs.. yes it does. i wiped data, cache and dalvik cache, did a install using cwm and it still reboots WHAT TO DO NOW

Well, I tried to install an apk (Asphalt 7: Heat) in my GN but when I'm about to install, the phone gives me an error "Não foi possivel instalar Asphalt 7. Liberte algum espaço e tente novamente" (Im portuguese, so the message is in PT) translating this it says: Couldn't install Asphalt 7, Free some memory and try again.
The problem is, I have more than 8GB free space, I tried to install other apps and no problem at all, the error is only for asphalt 7...
How can I solve the problem?
EDIT: the same happened when I unistalled Poweramp Trial, I Tried to buy the app and I noticed that I needed to reinstall the trial app before buying the full version, well, the same full memory erros shows up and doesn't let me install
anyone?
Are you sure you don't have any clockworkmod backups or something else which doesn't show up as used space?
Try doing a full factory reset than reinstalling every app.

If you can install ES file explorer you can do a SD card analysis to show how much free memory you really have.

This happened to me before when I had plenty of space, I think a simple reboot fixed the problem.

Boot into recovery mode. Wipe cache and dalvik cache, boot into android. Then restart your phone again.

hi! I used the root explorer app and deleted the dalvik cache and all the contents in the cache folder, after rebooting, my phone started to scan all my apps... I tried to reinstall poweramp trial from the market and nothing... full memory error again.
any other sugestions? (i dont know how to delete cache and dalvik cache in the recovery mode)
go into either the /system/app/ or /data/app/ directory and delete the odex file that has the same name
i didnt find any odex named app.odex
could you specify the name?
This is something that's bothered me since upgrading to 4.1.1. Doing just what the title says. So far, I've tried clearing the dalvik cache, wiping the cache partition, uninstalling titanium backup and restarting, as well as uninstalling ROM toolbox and lucky patcher. I'm rooted with chainfire's "quick" method but I also had root before upgrading from ICS. I also tried bin4ry's universal ICS/Jellybean method after upgrading before finding chainfire's, witch, I am suspicious of bin4ry's causing the bug in the first place. The message shows briefly after the glowing "Samsung" boot animation. I have scoured to the bottom of the internet looking for an answer, but I really, really do not want to re-flash the stock rom again. Any reason why this happens? Any way to fix it without wiping my phone; if that works?

Sounds like it's wiping dalvik on each reboot. Wipe and re flash.

It's not wiping the dalvik cache. The system displays the message briefly with no application count. I just assumed it was normal on 4.1.1

Several people seem to claim otherwise, Google shows. My tenant's and several of my friend's phones don't do it. I'll try reverting to factory and upgrading again in a few days if there are no other solutions.

I've removed a lot of at&t's bloatware, along with S-Suggest, "help" and ypmobile. I've also frozen s-voice and the samsung keyboard in favor of SwiftKey. I've removed bloatware in both so far. Maybe once I revert, I'll try to find out more about the problem. Until my phone is sick of the cache partition wipes and ruthless dalvik cache destruction, I will continue to try in vain. For the good of my OCD.

Many ROMs and Kernels are set to ziplalign apps on boot to improve performance.
I want to say this was also implemented in stock JB, or its set in CWM's init.d script for the newer versions.
This also happens each time you wipe dalvik and/or if you have Titanium Backup set to intergrate sys dalvik into ROM
I just did the HOWTO root after upgrading to stock JB, and after reading this post I did a quick reboot and yeh, the message appears for me as well.
Never integrated sysdalvik w/ titanium backup. I've also rebooted the phone without clearing dalvik, and never had cwm. Probably a few things I should have mentioned earlier, but they never crossed my mind.

Fixed the problem. Turns out you do need to re flash the whole phone. Reset to factory in recovery, then wipe the cache AND the dalvik, then reset to stock using ODIN. IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT YOU RESET TO FACTORY. The phone will remain soft bricked otherwise. A tutorial can be found here: http://galaxys3root.com/galaxy-s3-unroot/how-to-unroot-att-galaxy-s3-sgh-i747/. The only tried and true way to get the bug out. As far as I know. If anyone has any more ideas as to how this problem occurs, I'd still like to hear them.

I rarely reboot these days. I do my CWM backups online.
But when I do reboot, I do get that updating message and have been seening that from as far back as I can remember. It bugged me at first but not now. For me, it only does it for about 2-4secs so I don't bother trying to fix it.
I have the cause in my case but I don't have the solution. I flashed a mod I found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2044449, apn_editor_1.1.zip. Now every reboot I get Android Is Upgrading.... Starting apps.
How do I stop the phone from trying to add this mod?
Just got the same problem. Had super SU on the phone (soft root), so i tried to fully root (i installed xblasttools, and had to flash pa-icons, so i could change the color of the battery, but i couldn't because it said signature failed). Downloaded philz kernel/root, flashed with recovery. Then i uninstalled the Super su rebooted and there it was; Andriod is upgrading ...
I'm on 4.1.2, Samsung GT-i9100. Help !
P.S Uninstalled the superuser that i got with the phil kernel and installed Super SU. Also i did wipe the davlik and cache. Same stuff.
I got the Android is upgrading message before. It was because I tried to convert a user app to a system app. Converted it back to a user app and it went away. I think it had something to do with having an apk file but no corresponding odex file for that app in /system/app
Sent from my SGH-I747M using xda app-developers app
I have found why this happens, issue is with lucky patcher, when you patch application it creates <appname.odex> this odex file is somehow diffrent than real odex, so when you wipe dalvik cache it caches all your apps and then you have Android is starting apps on each boot. The solution is to delete all apps odexes wich you patched, reboot phone, this time it will not display "android is starting apps" and will work until you delete dalvik again. It is possible to apply patch with Lucky Patcher to dalvih cache instead of creating odex, but you loose your crack when you wipe dalvik again.
This is the solution, if someone have better way of doing it post here, also sorry if thread is old.

Thank you for pointing out Lucky Patcher. The "android is starting apps" notification started when I deodexed my rom. I uninstalled those patched apps, reinstalled and re-patched normally with Lucky Patcher 3.9.9.1 and that notification is gone.

Not sure if you are doing the install correctly
Lets review...
You run a Titanium Backup backup [or other app based backup not talking nadroid here].
You restart to recovery
Wipe cache
Wipe Dalvick Cache
Go to Mounts and storage [CWM] and format /System AND /Data
You go back to main menu
You Flash the ROM
You Flash GApps Pack [there is a 2013.01.08 I have seen that is specifically for 4.2 and not 4.1 BTW]
You restart and let it boot and wait at least 5 min before touching the phone
You then download and install Titanium Backup Open it, grant root
Then you Restored ONLY User apps and data [be sure to NOT RESTORE ANY SYSTEM APPS OR DATA]
This should have you running fine if this is your process.
If you are using TWRP and used the advanced backup/Restore to restore only /data by unchecking the other stuff this WILL NOT WORK it will restore the original /data and anything new your new install placed in /data will be removed and prolly why there is a problem.
If this is the only type of backup you now hoave if you download titanium backup pro [like $6 USD] then it as an advanced option can read out things from a nandroid backup done by either TWRP or CWM and restore apps based on the data there and the only way you should restore from that back DO NOT use TWRP to restore /data.
Basically TWRP images the entire partition and just puts that back exactly as it found it before whereas runnin titanium installs the apps back WITHOUT affecting anything that is new and already present [unless its a user app that exists in the backup and was installed by the ROM then you may end up with an older version, but then if that does happen don't panic open market and go to my apps [open market hit menu key tap my apps] and it should list any and all updates based on what is currently installed and can then update the affected app maintaing your user data that was restored by the titanium restore process., but it should warn about newer and older apps I believe.
TWRP method is good, but only if using same exact ROM and you had an issue [you deleted something wrong and caused a problem or otherwise need the data back EXACTLY as it was before, and disregarding any changes since].
Ok I did all that besides the go to mount part in recovery an when I reinstalled my user apps an data I rebooted back into recovery after it sat for an 5-10 min

Do the mount part and format both /system and /data. After restore to be absolutely thorough if you restart to recovery then have it wipe cache and dalvick cache one more time [should not be needed but may help].
You should ALWAYS format /system [and cache and dalvick cache] when flashing ANY ROM [ be it a different one or an updated version] and you really should do /data as well; though as long as it is a compatible ROM [JB to a different JB for instance] you may not need to wipe /data, but if you notice odd issues not helped by usual fixes [like my Swype stopped using the user dictionary and re-installing the app completely did not help only re-flashing my ROM and being sure to wipe both /system and /data and re-building from ground up [re-downloading my apps via market>My Apps [swipe My Apps screen to the left and there is a list with EVERY app you ever downloaded in the order it was downloaded which can help] fixed it [usually happens about once every month-ish little issues build until I can't stand one and format /data on an install]. Kinda personal pref on that, but if moving to a New ROM you really should try to do a Titanium backup and still wipe /data as ROMs do install some things there.
Ok I'll do that an thanks
