Wiped cache partion All services stopped - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot

Hello
It was suggested on another forum to alleviate audio video sync issues across multiple apps you should wipe your system cache. I am running lollipop 5.0.2 rooted.
Anyways I did the system cache clear through recovery and when I rebooted my phone the sprint screen hung for a minute then a black screen appeared followed by numerous prompts stating that various services were stopped.
I keep pressing okay to each prompt and another one follows. It seems like the service / app is trying to start but cannot. I am left with a black screen that continues to pop up these dead services.
Has anyone experienced this? I thought a system cache clear was harmless. What can I do so I do not lose my data.
Please help I need this stupid thing for work.
Thank you

Have you tried doing it again? Was it in stock recovery? What option did you press? Video lag fix is in my OD2 mods thread in Themes & Apps.

[Q] Camcorder not working on Epsy CM9

This is from one of my posts on the CM9 thread here.
I'm still having problems with video recording.
I tried making a 2:10 video just now, after a full phone wipe (factory reset) then installing this.
The camera FCd and in the gallery it says - "This Video cannot be played"
It's really annoying because I actually use my video camera, when I can..
It's not the camera app because I've used different applications and they say "Cannot access camera" after around 40s.
Defy Red Lens running latest build.
--------
Does anyone know why this happens? Or have any solution to it.
I have enabled full HWA (in the most recent update).
Process when installing the ROM:
Wipe data/factory reset
Wipe cache/dalvik
Install the rom (5 july from here)
Install Proximity Sensor Disable (this disables screen turning off when a call is made, for one thing).
Install Pottkopp's AIO Aroma installer for CM9 (Apex + rest don't change)
Wipe cache/dalvik
Reboot
Just incase I'm doing anything I shouldn't
Anyone know anything?
Try going to Apps and find Camera app.
Select Clear data from there.
Has helped me sometimes.
AROMA-Installer could also be the problem.
When installing new rom just:
Wipe cache partition or when big changes or everything goes wrong Wipe data/factory reset
Wipe Davik Cache
Install Rom
Reboot
There are just some options in Settings to disable screen rotating.

Edit: Sober now.. fixing this up lol.
OK, I'll try skipping the AROMA installer next time I install.
Thank you! It must have been the Aroma.. I just tried a minute video and it worked!
I'll try a 5 minute one just in case, and see if that saves
Diamonds for you *minecraft forum reference

[Q] Samsung Keyboard disappeared (GT-S7710): SIGSEGV

My Samsung Keyboard has disappeared. Whatever application I'm in I cannot type any word. Not with letters and not with handwriting. There is an empty rectangle at the bottom where the keyboard should be (see picture). It does not show keys and also it does nothing when I tap onto the empty space. Google voice typing does work.

More information about my phone and what I have done, trying to be complete:
Device type: Samsung Galaxy Xcover 2 (GT-S7710) (no separate subforum for this one yet). I had been flashing a custom system.img to it using linux heimdall. After flashing the system.img it did not boot, so I re-flashed images from the stock rom (GT-S7710/PHN/S7710XXAMB5.html). That made the device boot again. But as said: it did not have the samsung keyboard or it crashes every time. Not sure.
This is what I already tried to get it back, but to no avail:
clear cache and force stop for Samsung Keyboard, Google Services and Media Storage
restore to factory default from system menu
wipe cache and wipe data/restore to factory from recovery
reflash with S7710XXAMB6_OXEAMB3.zip (a full service ROM with images for more partitions)
see if samsung would update the system (samsung wouldn't: it was up-to-date)
download languages for input methods and selected English(UK) for all
disable bloatware
rebooted after all things I tried
Hoping for advise or pointers into a direction to search further. Anyway thanks for reading.
The keyboard re-appeared and I would like to understand why. This is what I had done in the meantime:
installed Swiftkey Trial
had an update for Samsung Push Service
did a restore in Helium backup app
rooted by flashing system image with su binary
Thanks for any thoughts about the crashing Samsung Keyboard (and the mysterious revival )

My opinion is that you shouldn't be wondering why is it working. I mean I always question everything but it is mostly pointless. Like why did the chicken cross the screen. It just did. Also, why are you even using Android keyboard? There are much better ones.

Messing keyboard
hi there.
I'm completely missing my keyboard. I'm rooted and I may have uninstalled samsung keyboard to free some space. I made a factory reset and now everything is gone including swiftkey which Was my prefered keyboard.
What to do?

Broken camera or... else?

Interesting behavior lately, on my sg5. There are times (more and more often, recently) when neither Google's camera app, nor camera zoom fx show anything on the screen, as if there was no visibility through the actual camera hardware. Rebooting the phone brings back functionality, but only for a while (a few hours), after which the strange no image comes back.
I have also experienced strange "disappearances" of pictures I just took, which show up in a gallery app (the default, or quick pick), but which are nowhere to be found after closing the camera app.
Has anybody seen anything similar? I would really hate to go back to resetting to defaults - had rooted and xposed customized this phone to my liking. And - no - this behavior is not associated with any recent xposed activity / configs...

Try booting to recovery and clearing the caches

Did that two ways: like you suggested, and - prior to that - via titanium...

I have similar on stock, without root.
When I open up default camera application, there is no picture, just blank screen and phone becomes very laggy. Screen looks like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
But it happens just sometimes.
E.g. once per 3 days and soft reboot is the solution.
Don't know the root cause Mine is SM-G900FD with BOC1 firmware.
Tried a factory reset already, but didn't help. Didn't try safe mode yet, as it might be related to some application e.g. facebook, viber, etc. which has access to camera.
Happens to my also since Lollipop on SM-G900F, tried the new stock BOC7 and now is better but it still there, the error and the blank screen. I noticed it happens more often in the evening/night. I've tried everything, wipe cache, reset camera. Hope Samsung will release a fix, no problems whatsoever on KitKat,

I see, so that will be probably different issue. Mine started also with lollipop, there were no problems on kitkat.

Samsung Note 3 Stucked at Boot Samsung Word Screen.

Hi Experts,
I use Samsung Galaxy Note 3 SM-N900 bought in December, 2013 - India.
Recently, for no reason or fault of mine, my cellphone has stucked at the start screen where the word SAMSUNG is displayed with colorful dots flowing around (Screenshot:

What can be the issue and how to fix this? I've checked with the Samsung Service Centre and they recommend Hard Factory Reset but that will result into losing of important data. I've tried Wipe Partition Cache option but didn't fix the issue. So my questions are:
Q1. How to get the data extracted from this cellphone before going ahead with Factory Reset?
Q2. Is Factory Reset the only solution to fix the issue. Isn't there any alternative means by which I can reach the home screen without losing the data present in the internal storage?
Q3. I am unable to reach the Safe Mode with the combination of keys pressed as guided on Google Search.
Q4. If Factory Reset is the only solution than is there any Free Software which is strong enough to get all the data back? More importantly, I want my WhatsApp folder back which has important information and post Factory Rest, I will stand a chance to re-obtain it.
Q5. Is any one aware of Mobile Data Recovery experts in India so who can be approached for the recovery of data post Hard Factory rest is done.
A quick reply to this query will be much appreciated!
Regards,
Apoorva.

Question asked multiple times Use Search.
Suggest ADB .

Highly unlikely

if youre not rooted, youre unlikely hacked. If you have the fear that you have been, factory reset from within the OS, remove any FRP lock, boot to recovery, factory reset in there literally 3 times. The 3 times part isnt because of your situation, its a constant across all galaxy devices to wipe more than once because phone weirdness does occur, reflash tour firmware from sammobile.com/firmwares with the regular CSC, not the HOME_CSC, reboot, set your phone up and any chance of it being hacked are gone.
Thank You
Thanks a lot for taking the time to answer, i cannot get into recovery mode either, since the Oreo 8.0.0 update my phone screen flashs when i get a call and going into recovery mode i release power when samsung shows then the android man comes for a split second then the flashing screen starts and the screen is totally covered with small vertical coloured lines, i found out when i went to wipe the cache partition but couldn't cos of the flashing and coloured screen, this all happened after the ota Oreo update, the flashing was constant at first i couldn't use the phone but now it's just with calls out or in and when the call ends it stops after about 10 seconds, that's why i haven't rooted which i would like to do as the Google and Samsung bloat is ridiculous, we shiuld be given the option, if we want them we can download them but not be forced to have them, but i'm afraid to root to remove them due to the flashing screen,but i think there are internal settings to reset it Thank you for your help
