Like the title says, friends. I, for the first time since I got my tn7,tried to uninstall an app. Specifically giant boulder of death. As soon as I confirmed I wanted to uninstall, the device crashes! About half a second after the crash, I'm greeted by the evga/tegra boot animation, and 5 seconds after that, I'm back on. Tried 20 other apps, all of them cause this, every single time. Has this happened to anyone else? Can I fix without rooting?

1) Try uninstalling by using some "Install/Uninstall app" from play store.
2) If you know to use "adb shell pm" command, then install adb usb drivers, and try the command.
3) Factory reset the device from settings.
4) Try to "clear the data and cache" of play store and download manager apps from "Settings-> Apps -> [Play Store/Download Manager]"
I've only ever tried fastboot. Do I need to root?

I had this problem, tried numerous things. You are in luck though solved it. Download ROM tools or boot animations and force it to remove boot animation. Should work fine now, it might work still if you swap the boot animation for another, odd bug.

Your post breaks my heart. I have 1yr warranty, and since there's no magic "100% return to factory" app I can't break that warranty with rooting

To everyone having this problem, I solved it. Switch to ART and uninstall an app, then reboot, then switch back to dalvik. It seems to reset a script somewhere.

my market keeps fc! The lady just had her baby and i won't be near a computer for a while to re flash. Any ideas? It force closes every time i open market. Just started today. Even uninstalled updates
Sent from my MB520 using xda premium
congrats on the baby!
hm, try uninstalling market, and reinstalling 3.4.4 apk. also, check if you have vending in /system. What rom are you on? wipe cache/dalvik?
Thank you! I actually tried to get into clockwork to try fix permissions and hit reboot recovery and it bricked! straight to boot loader every time with tons of errors. It sucked because i had no phone to send baby pictures with . Re flashed cm7 and issue seems gone now. Thanks for the suggestion!

I apologize if this circumvents any rule and/or policy on this forum.
I just want to give people a heads up regarding Chainfire 3D Pro 3.3.
If you have JB, don't install it, I made the mistake of doing so and my P5100 ended up stuck on the boot screen.
Solution: Re-flashing.
Well the author does say " Now available for Honeycomb- but still a big risk there!!" So if you're running Honeycomb, that was a possibility.
Another solution, which I just did to my SGS2 with the new JB (and already had the CF-3D pro app installed so didn't see the market warnings) was to boot to (stock!) recovery, (home+volup+press power till get logo while still holding other keys for a bit longer) plug in USB to PC, run adb shell, then su, then
cd /system/lib
./cf3d_uninstall.sh
throws some errors but phone reboots and bingo.
You might try clearing cache and dalvik in recovery too. Its no guarantee, but it can help with boot loop issues depending on the cause.

For normal non root apps, yes, but won't help in this case, since Chainfire 3D isn't putting anything much in data or cache, all the main modifications are /system/lib which clearing cache won't help at all...

Unless its conflicting with something else. Then it could help. Still less likely, but its free, easy, and won't hurt so its worth trying. Something could have gotten botched on the install too. It could be a Google play cache issue. (Its probably not)
I've fixed plenty of stuff in my life by doing things that shouldn't work.
Sent from my GT-P5110 using xda app-developers app
Installing the app isn't causing the non boot, it is going into the app and pressing the option to get it to, via root, modify the system to put new surface flinger drivers in. It is these drivers, which are in system, which causes the non (full) boot on JB. No amount of any cache or even factory reset will fix up /system modifications. Just good thing it has a driver uninstaller which can be run from adb shell.

Ooooohhh!! Yeah thats different. I read the op as if he just installed it and got bootloops. I didnt realize it wasnt until after he used it.
My bad!
In that case this is a lesson in why you should always make a nandroid before messing with system files.

Flash a new rom. And why you have used ist? I mean chainfire wright it in the description that only gingerbread should install this.
There is a driver uninstaller you can run from adb shell from recovery, if you don't want to flash a new system partition or full rom again.

it is such a pitty that CF 3D doesnt work on any 4.1+ rom :/
I was using it on my phone on ICS,but its devs are obviously not making it compatible with 4.1 and 4.2
Can some make Chainfire change the thing in the play store so it appears as "imcompatable"?

I have a problem with my nexus 4. I noticed that my phone sometimes is getting slow and then I can't do anything, and after a few seconds there is a System FC window. Only reboot helps me.
I use official 4.3, no root, even bootloader is locked.
Any ideas what can I do?

Try a factory reset after backing up everything, that usually solves the problem. You should try it in recovery first, wipe everything. After that do a factory reset in Android. Should work like new. I had problems after installing 4.3 (FC, lags and playstore not working) the factory reset solved it.
Oh, I hope it'll help me.

Ok so I don't know about anyone else but it seems I lost the incoming text messages pop up window that use to appear right below notification bar on left side. It used show up whenever I received a text message and the phone was on and in another app or another message thread I believe. Now I haven't seen it at all and can't get it to show up. I noticed this today and I wonder of it has anything to do with rooting the phone and using the gmd auto nav bar app but that's all I have changed. Has anyone else noticed this?

I still get it after root. It would make sense to me that if you modified the bar it would cause this to not work.

boot into recovery, wipe cache and D-cache and fix permissions in advanced
EDIT if that fails disable the modded on screen keys and see if it returns and/or start disabling all mods until you find the culprit
Haven't flashed custom recovery yet. I tried removing gmd app but still doesn't show up.

if you dont have custom recovery but have root use flash gordon to wipe both cache
I'm having the same issue, all the sttings are in place to see the pop up but no dice. I've only flashed the camera mod but i flashed back to stock thinking that's what may have caused it. Still dies not work, i tried fixing permissions wiping both cache and still nothing.contemplating doing a factory reset but I'm hoping i won't have to.
im having the same issue here too. i havent flashed and mods. it was working this morning, then all of a sudden it stop. ive gone thru all the settings, rebooted and cleared dalvik/cache and still nothing :/ i might try a factory reset to see what happens, although id prefer not to....
Happened to me too, not sure what to do. I was thinking about reinstalling the factory apk since I have root but been too lazy to get it from someone.
Sent from my VS980 4G using xda app-developers app
I haven't even realized this. Thinking it happened here as well. Phone one still works. GF textud me during gaming and I didn't see it pop. Nav and status bar mod here. Not sure if it happened after root or what. VS980.
just an update to my post:
i did a factory reset and that brought it back. pop-up text messages is working
If a factory reset did it, I shoukd reinstall the factory apk and I bet it will work.

I made a back up right after i rooted also at the time i know for a fact that pop up sms worked so im flashing that then restoring my data through titanium. That should do the trick.
Update: worked. Maybe it's one of the mods that's causing this.
Mine started doing this. I have GMD installed. I'm on Sprint. I freezer lots of apps and just started using greenify to hibernate some apps.
I really don't want to factory restore. Ugh I liked that feature.

If anyone has fixed this without a factory reset.. Let me know please.
Sent from my LG-LS980 using xda app-developers app
the common theme in the posts that say their text msg pop up is not working is GMD.
After updating my tablet is useless. YouTube app keeps giving me the same message "An error occurred" and I can't watch anything. Google Now keeps saying I have no internet connection. Google Play Store won't load screenshots. I can browse the internet just fine but none of my google apps work, WHAT A MESS!!!
If you guys have any solutions for this please help me out.
Thanks.
Did you start with a clean install, or update and keep all your data? If it's the latter, you might consider a factory reset.

Started out with an update, saw the mess then did a factory reset from the device itself. That didn't help at all so i did
fastboot -w update *image name here*.zip. Still no success.
In a fit of desperation I actually flashed everything manually
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
etc...
NOTHING WORKED!!

Back to 4.3?
Sent from my SGH-I747M using xda app-developers app
If nothing works you can make a clean 4.4. install. With the google images. Or you make a clean 4.3 install.
If you have changed someting, like xposed framework or root or wrong recovery... that this could be the problem.
Already made 2 4.4 clean installs. I think I've traced down the problem though.
It'a DNS problem as the ads on webpages have an "error resolving dns" error on them.
I've tried changing my DNS to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 but to no avail. None of the Google apps work.
