[Q] Stuck in Launcher Force Close Loop - 1st Gen Kindle Fire NON Rooted

I have a first generation kindle fire that I have not ever rooted. I side-loaded a bunch of launchers onto it in order to see what would work. I accidentally set the Xperia Home launcher as default before confirming that it worked and now I'm stuck in a permanent loop with an error message that says:
"The application Xperia Home (process com.sonyericsson.home) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again." When I tap Force Close, it continues to come back up.
I saw a similar thread where someone ran into this problem, but on a rooted device. My device is basically stock. Is there anyone that can help me? Thanks in advance.

Race it to factory reset and reset it. I know it seems like you can`t do it but many succeed.

Thank you for the suggestion. Not to sound dumb, but how would I go about doing that? (Sorry, I'm kind of a noob)

Nevermind, I'm dumb - you just mean tap it real fast and try and get stuff to come up. May be worth a shot. thanks!!

It worked, and I didn't have to factory reset. I got lucky. I quick tapped the notification bar and because Android App Manager was running, I was able to keep at it and open it to uninstall the Launcher which resolved the issue.

Scrapbook force closing

Anyone had this issue before?
I think the only way is to reset the phone, but that's a hassle.
Any help would be appreciated.

Have you tried wiping the cache from Application menu from Settings? Hopefully wiping the cache will take care of it.

hey there, I just saw this.
It's exactly what I did. I also synced with Samsung. Once I opened Scrapbook, everything was in there again.
Thanks!

"Unfortunately, Camera has stopped." message, please help!

Hi,
On my LG G3, camera displays the unfortunately camera has stopped message. I cannot access the camera using this application nor through any 3rd party applications. I can however access the front facing camera using snapchat but not the rear. I have tried the method of clearing cached, data then force stop it and reboot. This does not solve the problem. I have also rebooted the phone in safe mode to determine if it was interference from any 3rd party applications however even in safe mode I got the message, which leads me to think maybe a hardware problem. Can anyone offer some advice?? The device is not rooted. I go on holiday next week and was looking forward to taking some good pictures with it too!
Regards
Ajay

did you make any mod for the camera ? like video quality or bitrate ?
if you did your problem is with the permission of the files you changed. it happended to me too.
i decided to reinstall everything since a wipe didn't solve the problem. later i discovered that i forgot to chance the permissions. so the reinstall was unecessary...all i had to do was give the right permission as was stated in the post about the camera mod.

Do you have a 3rd party flashlight app installed? I had a similar issue and backtracked my installed apps a bit. I removed apps that I knew had access to hardware (removing each one at a time and rebooting my phone after each) The 3rd try was my flashlight app. After rebooting, the camera was back to normal. Also... the front camera likely worked because it doesn't access your camera's flash. Just a guess on that last part mind you. Hope this helps.

but a cse flash deletes all apps which he had done and still no luck, seems like a hardware issue to me

I agree. A hardware issue possibly caused by an app that isn't talking the camera flash's language. Just saying... I had the exact same issue less than 12 hrs ago. I see your point though.

Bug Report: [ROM][WIP][PORT] CyanogenMod 11 M8 4.4.4 [BETA]

Hi there,
First off I would like to thank AngSanley for his work on the 4.4.4 CM 11 ROM, absolutely excellent development and keep up the good work. Hopefully I thought I would make a bug report here since i still can't post in the X development section:
1. Phone.apk problems:
a. Operator and Caller names coincide with each other (Issue was mentioned before in the thread however still looking forward to hearing from @AngSanley for a reply)
b. Repeated Missing Calls crash the com.android.phone process and the only solution is to call the missing call to get the phone app running again. To emulate that leave the call until it ends twice and see what happens
2. System Processes
In Jelly Bean and Ice Cream Sandwich you were able to disable system stock apps such as Browser, email, messages and it was possible to install the playstore apps as a replacement. I was wondering if it's still possible to enable that in the current ROM or it's not a bug as of the new releases.
Note: This also includes Trebuchet since I'm not currently using it.
3. Reboots in some cases disables the home button action in UDNB and prevents the lockscreen process from running properly which requires me to reinstall the ROM and Gapps while clearing cache and Delvik or by force stop and enabling lockscreen (which gets me to problem 2 sometimes).
Thank you again for the ROM and looking forward to hearing about upcoming updates with the ROM.

For the first issue, the problem is known. I mentioned it but it's difficult to fix.
For the third issue though, I found a solution. I disabled UDNB and installed Soft Buttons app. If the buttons crash, I disable them from the app and immediately enable them again. I reboot and... that's all!
(as for the second, I use some stock apps, so I can't tell you for sure)

Hopefully it gets addressed because it makes the phone literally unusable. The current list by AngSanley doesn't show it so I hope it's addressed to him.

Any specific app on the playstore because there are many apps for it

No problem it's fine. The imitation of it can be made if you even disable messages for example. It shows immediately that the phone loses functionality especially in the lockscreen process.
I'm really looking forward to hearing from @AngSanley on these. Especially on the phone process issue .

Couldn't attach it from Tapatalk. Here you are!
(Note that you MUST disable UDNB from Settings > Apps first, because the phone will show you 2 navbars!)

Unfortunately I won't be able to do that since I just bricked my phone while formatting to the original stock version lol. I'm currently stuck on Nokia Emergency Connectivity and will be sending it to the Nokia care center next month haha. I'll be doing a fresh install when I get it back.
PS: I'm guessing no solutions for this problem outside the warranty am I right?

Fingerprint sensor delay

This issue started just out of the blue. The fingerprint scanner is no longer quick to respond to touch if the phone has been idle for anything over 2-3 minutes. What could be the issue? I am on OOS 3.2.2, rooted.

Next time try avoid using xposed. Also backup your apps before factory reset.

Does Xposed break things like this? ? Anyway I only use Xposed to greenify, and manage boot. Will do a factory reset and let you know. Thanks a bunch for your time ?

I'm not sure but i have noticed that xposed cause lag in long run.
That's why recently I flashed RR ROM without xposed. It's working great no lag at all.
