"com.android.providers.downloads.ui" causing performance issues - Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe

Hi
Recently I bought an A5 (2017) cell phone, but I'm facing terrible performance issues (lagging, delays, crashes and noise during sound playback).
Additionally I get the message that com.android.providers.downloads.ui is causing performance issues. (unfortunately I'm not allowed to post screenshots.)
Interestingly when I use the "Device Maintenance" in Setting and clean the RAM, the problem is gone. I tried to close the apps one by one to find out the one that is causing the problem, but I wasn't able to do so.
I tried freezing com.android.providers.downloads.ui by cmd appops set <package_name> RUN_IN_BACKGROUND ignore and the problem was solved, but when I wanted to use Play Store, it said that I had to enable Downloads app.
Any help would be appreciated.

As I said, I can freeze the package, but when I open Play Store it says that it needs Downloads app to be enabled.

Try wiping data,cache and dalvic from recovery.Otherwise flash the stock ROM.

Thanks for reply.
I did wipe cache and it seemed to fix the problem but after a while the problem was back. I can't root my phone and there is no option for wiping dalvik in recovery mode.
About last option, does flashing stock ROM delete my apps and data? And where can I download stock ROM?

Flashing the ROM won't delete anything on your phone.Visit SamMobile and look for your model to get the correct ROM(Instructions can be found on the site)Also click thanks!?

You have been deleting things. This has caused the "com.android.providers.downloads.ui" error. Use Odin to flash your firmware to restore everything to normal. When you flash the firmware, choose home_csc to avoid deleting your data. Otherwise you will lose everything

I don't know how you got that I've been deleting things, maybe because of my bad English, but I haven't.
Actually, I started to disable (or freeze) the Download Manager after I received the "com.android.providers.downloads.ui" error many times.
I really prefer not to flash my phone, because it's really hard for me to install the apps again.
It will be great if you could suggest a way to overcome the problem without losing my apps or data.

Sorry....I see you are not rooted. That's fine.
Option 1....downgrade Google Play Services - locate in apps and uninstall updates. This will revert to an earlier or factory setting.
Test it and let me know

That's wrong actually you just flash the ROM,I did it multiple times and no he can't delete system stuff in order to cause those errors otherwise phones would have been complete trash.I really don't know why it's trash since it's brand new though?

I mispunctuated my reply earlier. No big deal.
I was on the understanding that if the CSC is flashed as part of the main firmware installation everything goes however, if HOME_CSC is flashed, data remains.

There is no such option as "uninstall updates" in Google Place Services in app section. And the disable button is grayed out. I googled, and it seems I need to root my phone to be able to downgrade Google Play Services.

Hi. Sorry - just seen this.
Okay. In Apps section, tap the 3dots at the top right of the screen and select "Show system apps".
When loaded, scroll down to "Google Services Framework". Tap it. Tap Disable.
Reboot. Repeat process to then enable. Reboot. See what we have.
It's just a case of diagnostics now, if you want to avoid the flash route (we'll try and keep that as last resort - but you will not lose data using my method above)

I downgraded the Google Play Services, but unfortunately it didn't work. The problem is same and additionally Media app (containing Downloads and Download Manager) is draining my battery too.

When I disable MTP Host the battery draining and performance issues are gone, but of course some the other necessary features would be out of access too.
I was wondering if there is any way to update or replace MTP Host!?

Unable to install or update apps via market

As of today i have not been able to download any apps from the market.
when i click on the "accept and download" button an error message pops up saying, "******" could not be downloaded due to an error. (-101).
I noticed that the apps look as though they are downloading but with a blue bar continuosly scrolling on the My apps screen.
I have tried clearing cache and data from "Download manager" but this has not helped.
Any advice please?

i guess you are rooted and running AOSP ROM
try clear the cache from CWM and fix permissions through ROM manager. if it wont work reflash the GAPS mate.

Interesting... I'm stock on 4.0.2 and just started receiving this about 48 hours ago too, I'm not rooted either.
Exact message: "Application Name" could not be downloaded due to an error [-101]
I did a bunch of searches and haven't found many solid responses or anything that's helped, some people said "it's a quota error" but that doesn't make sense since I haven't downloaded many apps in the last few days, others said to clear data/cache and that hasn't helped either. Also tried on both 4G and WiFi and that doesn't matter.
I've done reboots, etc. as well and nothing - even swapped batteries so "batter pull" will not be helpful either.
FYI - This is my 4th Android device and I've never seen this before.
Thanks for anyone that has any input!

Fixed it!!!
Here is what I did:
1. Settings
2. Personal: Accounts and Sync
3. Selected my Google account
4. Once within my Google account, clicking on the context menu/settings menu I selected "Remove Account"
5. Once the account was removed it prompted and asked for a new account, I entered the credentials for the same account and then rebooted
6. Once it rebooted I went to the Market, accepted the EULA and downloaded Google Gesture (I wanted to try a free app first) without any issues!
FYI - the account I deleted was fine, there were no issues in how it showed up but deleted it anyway.
I hope this helps people out! Good luck!

Yea man I noticed it ony force closes if your in a conversation or message thread and you hit the home button instead of backing out to the message list then pressing home. It's annoying but it can be worked around. Hoping for a fix
Using Gear S Smartwatch
I have also noticed that the necessary files and plugins to connect the phone to the gear s smartwatch are missing from the 5.1.1 update. I found them on a different XDA thread and installed them manually and now everything works as it should with using the smartwatch for those of you who have one. However, I also noticed with messages app I tried a different approach by dirty flashing 5.1.1 over 5.02 stock and messaging was working fine without ANY force closes. Then I installed everything for my Gear S smartwatch and rebooted. Once I rebooted the messages app began to force close again. I dont know if it is due to reboot like capacitive buttons with haptic feedback, or if it was due to one of the plugins for my smartwatch. If anybody can test it out by dirty flashing then rebooting let me know. Sorry for long post, just trying to help.
Is it normal for me to loose root access after installing this rom ? Is there a way I can get it back without being stuck in a bootloop ?

You should probably read up on the ROM a bit before flashing, it's clearly stated (and much discussed) in the thread that root is not available.

How to turn haptic feedback back on for capacitive
For those of you who installed the 5.1.1 rom and lost capacitive feedback after reboot like I did. I found something strange which turned the feature back on. Here's a step by step.
Go into play store and install the app called DU BATTERY SAVER
Once installed, open the app and click on the SAVER TAB at the bottom
In the SAVER TAB click on MY MODE and enable it
Then click on the PENCIL next to MY MODE to Edit it
In there you'll find HAPTIC FEEDBACK IS DISABLED. ENABLE IT.
Voila!! your welcome!!

Lol by accident actually! I downloaded this app cuz it was recommended by Samsung apps and then browsed around in settings. Lol. When u reboot tho you will have to go back in that app and uncheck the setting. Save. Then recheck and save again. Annoying but a workaround for now.

Problems after Marshmallow update, apps have internet but cannot load web pages

Ever since i flashed the Marshmallow update i have trouble loading webpages in all browsers.
This happens in Wi-fi as well as on mobile data, but it only concerns the browsers. All the apps requiring internet work just fine, which is why i suspected a DNS problem, but the "Set DNS" apps don't work and i don't know what to do.

No idea what that means. OTA? RUU? Flashed a ROM (if so, which one?)?
If the latter, did you do a factory reset before flashing?
Same problem

I've noticed this too when converting back and forth between GPE.. doesn't matter if I RUU to a current Sense build or take and OTA from 5.0.. I've even had it happen after formatting data and side loading a zip (lost my memory card for a few days lol).. it's weird, only happens every now and then after fresh installs but Chrome acts funny. Pages won't load due to loop, redirects, security flags, etc.. If I backup, I don't even have to wipe or restore that backup, it seems to fix the issue after reboot.. I can't explain why. You guys using Comcast or Xfinity by any chance?

[compatibility patch 20160722] [lg g3 d855] [6.0 stock mm]

Yesterday a new update appears in LG G3's Update Center. It has the name Compatibility Patch (20160722). It says that is a patch that it is important for apps compatibility or something like that. I downloaded the update and then I had to restart the device in order to install the update. Do you know anything about this update?
I have to reboot after patch installation over and over again
I use fulmics 5.3 and this patch came out. I installed it, no issue.

Same here. Shows up after every reboot.
I found a solution myself.
My device was encrypted. So I removed the encryption, rebooted the device started new and Taaa-Daaa!
Patch notification has gone.
Mine's encrypted, too. Sad, this seems to be the solution.

But I turned on the encrytion again after I have rebooted once after encryption has been turned off at the beginning of the "process".
What is encryption? How do u turn it on n off ?

if you have Titanium Bkup installed then patch should have been auto freezed by TB. You can have look into it. Another thing go to app Updates see under IDLE APPS your Compatibility patch should show button "Enable", don't enable this button. This is for information to all.

In this case u had to freeze the comp patch app in titanium bk. no issues. See above my post.
not sure if that's related
how would Titanium bkup help against a bug in the UI system?
other user may want to disable any administrative access software (like Mcafee or AVG anti virus) they have installed before enabling this patch.

Installed onto D850/852. Now unable to sign onto home wi-fi. Rebooting server does not fix it. Would like to remove this p.os. compatibility patch. Ideas?
You can try my above post and for Comp patch notification you can disable by going into settings ... app... notification Tab ... disable all notification for this Comp patch, you won't get notification any more for this, that is what I did.
First freeze this patch in Titanium BkUp.

Thanks to JIT1108 and others for suggestions. Will root phone soon and try the Titanium backup. Looks useful for purging carrier bloatware too, which I didn't know about.
Yesterday I have installed those Compatibility patch on my D855 (fulmics 5.3).. And this was a mistake.
Yes, I can confirm that the phone charges much more faster with the patch installed..
But the battery is discharging also very fast now! Faster than before.
Anyone have an idea how to uninstall this thing, or bring back the previous version of the apk file
which was in the system before this upgrade, without hard reseting or reflashing entire phone again?
Thnx in advance.
BTW.. TitaniumBackup can not uninstall this, shows only info: "the app can't be uninstalled, because there is no apk file".
And the second question..
Can this apk file be safely deleted manual from the system?
Or anyone can upload from own phone the original app: com.lge.systemupdater from the fulmics 5.3?

which was in the system before this upgrade, without hard reseting or reflashing entire phone again?
Thnx in advance.
BTW.. TitaniumBackup can not uninstall this, shows only info: "the app can't be uninstalled, because there is no apk file".
And the second question..
Can this apk file be safely deleted manual from the system?
Or anyone can upload from own phone the original app: com.lge.systemupdater from the fulmics 5.3?

First of all you know that this is an official patch from LG so no harm to instal. But if any one have issues after installing it like you said battery discharging faster and so I really have no idea about it is really happening due to patch or so. If you want to remove this patch there is no way unless you do something and screwing up your phone. The most simple way what i did was freeze the application from T.B. and turn off the application's notification by going to the settings...apk..comppatch..notification...disable all notification and you are done. And ha don't do any stupid thing by touching anything to system files you will end up in boot loop so careful. My above method is simple and only way to come out. Those who want to keep the patch there is no harm they can keep as it is the patch.

Honestly?
This is no answer to my questions.
- Yes.. I know that is from LG.
- Yes it is a way to remove (always is a way)
- Freezing does NOTHING in my case - the patch was already installed, the app was autofreezed in the TB, there was no any nags, notificacions etc.
- Why should I not touch anything? heh.. mega-lol
- Your method does nothing but freezing the already installed app. Means: the patch is applied already - so.. a bit to late for freezing.
- "..there is no harm.." - heee?! What?! No harm? Then how to describe so fast battery discharging? Feature? Bonus? eeeeeeehhh.. Maaaannn..
Ok.. back to the clue..
Freezing is not a fix.. in my case. Is jus a workaround and not so very functional.
Update:
Problem solved - I do a dirty reflash of Fulmics 5.3 and this crappy patch is gone.
My phone (battery) works now ok.
BTW..
LG should inform the people what exactly this "compatibility update" do in the phone(s)!
They should give us an option to uninstall/remove them.
But.. they do an piece of crap.. as usual.

Latest HTC lockscreen update essentially soft bricked my phone.

Hi all,
The latest update has some issues- the OS boots and I am immediately presented with a system.ui has been stopped dialogue. I'm unable to open the app drawer, open an app, open the notification drop-down. The popup appears almost immediately after dismissing. I think the Testers really missed something here.......
I'm going to have to try and locate the previous version and hope I can install it through twrp.
Has anyone else seen this happen?

Haven't had this happen to me
if you check on apkmirror you'll find the previous versions there =)
This just happened to me.... It's just flashing the HTC 10 stock background over and over and over and phone is heating up very fast. Have tried starting in safe mode, rebooted several times, no joy..... Anyone have any ideas?

Do you encrypt your phone? I feel like the update didnt transfer encryption presets and new app is trying to unlock without decryption codes or something.

I do mate, it's stock still. I didn't have to change anything regarding that, fired up as normal and asked for my PIN to decrypt device.
Just thinking, if you can battle it go and uninstall the update via settings and apps

I'm not running stock. Other people seem to be having similar issues in the Viper Rom discussion.

A logcat will be really helpful.

I was unable to install the apks located there in the traditional way. I tried to install them through TWRP via adb push file.apk /system/app but it didn't work. I'm unaware of how to install APKs outside of the system otherwise? Regardless, downgrading, if this method is viable, didn't work. I had to completely wipe clean and start fresh.

Wipe and start over. I had to. I have work calls that I can't be absent for. Thanks HTC. My phone was out of service for ~3 hours while I figures this out and the phone got completely usable again after flash+settling.

The bug doesn't allow the user to enter any screen. So doing this is not an option

Viper 3.5.0. I haven't upgraded to ANdroid 7.0 for reasons.

Not sure if HTC is to blame, or we...or you being still on marshmallow.
Next time please post in the viper thread, then I would have seen your post much earlier to debug your issue.
we found the issue.
run:
adb shell settings put system tweaks_hquicksettings Tweaks
..and it will be fixed. when you resetup your toggles, don't pick any of the two sync toggles.
I'll create a flashable zip to remove those soon.

You should have been able to fix it without wiping by booting to recovery and dirty flashing the ROM.
EDIT: No, this actually won't work. Sorry

Have this issue on an M8...
Will your fix work on my device too?
Found your solution in the m8 thread...
Thank you sir

Thank You! Flashing this file fixed the issue and saved me a huge headache. Now to take away the HTC Lockscreen app's
"auto update" rights since it clearly can't be trusted.

read the info on our homepage.
Not sure who is to blame, htc or we.
You can install the update, with either the fix installed or the sync toggles removed.
or you dirty flash the fullrom on top, that way the sync toggles stay working.
..what I'm wondering, why so many people are still on marshmallow...

There's a few xposed modules I like.
Is nougat really that big a difference? I have it on my tablet and it's very similar to marshmallow.

guiness is also just a usual beer.
Well I like Marshmallow and Nougat. But I don't like Guinness!
If Guinness had Xposed modules then I'd drink it!
I have this problem on my m8 as well. Unfortunately I was not able to solve this problem with your post. I cannot execute the adb command since adb is telling me that my device is offline (I booted into the OS with the screen going on and off).
I also flashed the zip file, but it didn't work out either. I am not sure which version of viper I have (I assume it's the 6.0.1), so I tried different zips but no success...
Could anyone tell me what I did wrong? I really don't want to do a full reset.

another way would be to go to twrp->advanced->file manager
navigate to /data/app/ and delete the com.htc.lockscreen folder do the same in /data/data
boot up, then go back to recovery and flash the fullrom on top.
if nothing helps, you can do a twrp backup, then clean flash. Now you can restore your apps and data with titanium backup.
Been looking for a solution to this ! My gf phone had the exact same issue, dirty flashed and still no good etc.
I shall try the packages J posted. Thanks so much!
