[Q] Random reboots after application re/install - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys, :highfive:
I am having this problem since months and I found
no solution by myself so you are the only ones how could help
me out!
As the title says, my sgs2 randomly reboots, not always but
very often, after I installed a new app or deinstalled one.
Via Titanium Backup, Play Store or directly in the AppDrawer
...it makes no difference!
After rebooting, the application is (de)installed (-depending what
I did) but this is very annoying and couldn't be normal right! ;P
What could that be!? Please help me! :cyclops:
peace

Yeah I checked this because I cleared cache and system with SD Maid.
I CAN install or deinstall them, as mentioned above! But I don't understand
why it reboots after the process...
\\Edit:
I am running on siyah kernel and paranoid android 2.54

Backup Everything ( internal SD , External SD , songs , pics , contacts , apps and their data and every damn thing on the device currently . Head to recovery , WIPE EVERYTHING ! ( AND I MEAN IT ) wipe data,wipe cache,wipe dalvik cache,go to mounts and storage,format system,format data,format cache,format internal sd,format ext sd . Flash The ROM and the compatible Gapps and leave your phone as such ( in recovery itself ) for 10-15 minutes ( some say it is helpful for the rom and it also needs time to set itself up ) after 15 minutes , reboot system and it will then boot up . After it boots Up , AGAIN , leave the rom ( say overnight ) do not install any of your apps in that period , start customizing or even flash a custom kernel . Search For the ROM's thread( the rom which you are using and experiencing problems ) if it has any of the problems you mentioned or any user has reported it or not . and try not using a custom recovery for a few days( might be a problem due to the kernel as well ) . These are steps i frequently follow and i get great results from any ROM i have been using . Hope It helps you too and all the best !

[Q] remove stock auto installing apps

Hi guys, I tried the stock leaked ICS XXLPH but since then everytime I flash a rom it goes through "installing applications" which installs the photo editing, Polaris, Swype and IM apps as well as some others that I can't remember.
Is there any way of removing this? a way of wiping everything for a clean install. I searched the internal memory as well as the external SD card and could not find anything.
Any ideas?
thanks in advance
You want a custom rom with those features removed Or
Remove Samsung Apps script .

If the apps are on the SD card wipe the card .
jje
Why don't you try a custom ROM like resurrection? Most stock apps have been removed and only the useful ones left
Hi guys, that's the problem. I am trying ROMs that don't have these apps but for some reason they keep auto installing after the first boot of every rom I flash. I looked on the internal memory as well as my SD card and couldn't find anything that wasn't there before. I made sure that I wiped the data, cache and dalvik cace before and after flashing the rom but as soon as Android boots it goes through that process before presenting the set up wizard.

Yeah same as me, it happens here as well.
Anyone got any other ideas, its annoying.
I experienced this kind of trouble while using GB based ROMs.
After moving to the ICSs it never happened again.
Duh, ever heard of Google backup and restore......
Next time you wipe or flash new ROM, start reading what's on screen instead of clicking next next.....

Any way to permanently delete auto-install on first-boot, only takes a few mins to uninstall them all but its still annoying, Or would i have to check each rom i downloaded for the CSC.apk each time and remove it?
i never get those installation lol yesterday flashd lp9 ics an flashd back to gb my stock...
Those files are located on /preload folder on the root directory, you can delete those apps from that location.
Those files come along with stock Samsung roms, custom Roma and cm9 don't use the /preload block.

[Q] Apps Remained after a full wipe

Something strange happened to my S3 after a simple reboot I noticed that some app have been removed so I decided to clean my phone on the way.
I made a full wipe + everything you can think of to clean, delete, format the phone but after I install the rom I can still see my apps in the application manager and I can't get rid of them even if I uninstall them through the application manager the come back after a restart.
I tried 2 different roms but it happens on both of them, both are xxDLIB .
How to fix that?
pls help me

Try the SuperWipe from "Android Revolution HD" here --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1797334
Be careful, this will erase everything that is not on your external SD-card. Read the instruction first.

Are the apps system apps perchance? A wipe of data WILL wipe all user installed apps, the full wipe script alluded to doesn't do anything that you can't do manually from recovery.

So you did a full whipe but did you do also a factory reset?

Sure the apps aren't part of the ROM. Depends on what the dev has cooked into it.
Sure you're doing a full wipe vs wiping caches only.
Could also be syncing to your Google account meaning when you launch play store it automatically detects your market links and reinstalls previously installed apps
Sent from my SG3
CWM Recovery mounts and storage FORMAT system cache data and preload .
That fails wipe internal sd card .
jje
explanation
I think I didn't explained my self right, these apps are "user" apps downloaded from Play store.
things I did before installing the rom:
1. factory reset from setting.
from cwm:
2. wipe data/factory reset
3. wipe cache partition
4. wipe dalvik-cache
5. wipe battery stats
5. format /cache
/system
/data
/preload
/sdcard
* also I removed the external sd.
but still I have these app "ghosts"
Then i suggest as per previous replies to the same question you are auto downloading from Google play after installing a rom .

I disabled wifi/data and sync when it ask for a wifi connection (at the openning screen of the new rom) so there is no way it somehow sync with play store.
you can see below what I mean by saying "ghosts"

Clean Rom Install
Many people don't exactly know what a Data Wipe / Factory reset is. NO it does not delete "all" your data on Internal SD-Card. It Deletes all you user data and settings and stuff, like it says it formats "system". For Example if you Full wipe you loose Whatsapp, but the Whatsapp folder on your internal SD-Card remains untouched, that means you can restore your Conversations with ease. This means you can cause a huge mess on your internal SD-Card over time. This is my way how to do a CLEAN install. Doing this prevents many unwanted issues like Bootloops, FC's and all those other nasty laggy ****.
1. Put new rom on EXTERNAL SD Card (if slot available)
2. Data Wipe / Factory Reset
3. Wipe Cache
4. Wipe Dalvik Cache
5. Format Internal SD card
6. Install Rom and enjoy
Keeping your personal Data on your external SD-Card is a good idea (pics, music, vids , docs ...)
[You can do this even if you don't have an ext. SD-Slot. After "cleaning" your device mount USB-Storage in CWM Recoery and you can connect to pc and pull over your rom. ]
And this is probably one of the best ways to do a clean install without aditional Scripts like superwipe or other "flashy" stuff. (DO NOT USE THOSE SCRIPTS UNLESS THEY ARE IN AN INSTALLATION GUIDE)
One addition to above format/preload as well .

[Q] how to get out of bootloop on s 2

first time i install cm10.1 nightly on s2 i9100, there was no prob...then flashed pacman rom ..was a little glitchy and slow.
So moved on to paranoid android..this is where the prob started... it keeps on bootlooping :?
Right now flashed stock 4.1.2 via odin and rooted with siyah kernel s2 v6 0.5b ..works fine
but if i flash any custom ROM it bootloops ,even with the prior cm10.1 that i had..
checked xda , did a lot of work but still stuck at square one..{wiping this , wiping that}
only thing i can find fault with is in recovery when wiping data says
Format/sdcard/.android_secure ..fail
skip Format
Format completed
when trying to intsall from sdcard it says
E:/ cannot mount..
tried different cwm recovery .. all with the same findings..
so please help me.. its boring to be stuck with stock ROM..
i am a doctor ..i tried but couldnt follow running SDK and commands ..so please keep it simple
or if possible publish a video.. bcause iam not the only one with this predicament...during my research i found a lot android users with the same problems..
Thanks

Thank you..ammar but as i have already said my phone works but with the stock rom...i end up bootlooping only when iinstall custom ROM
n the solution given in that thread 1. is to flash a stock rom.. 2. flashing villain rom but the download links are not working..
i think it has do with fail to format .androidsecure thing but what do i know?
again thanx..
check this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1906362
also backup all ur internal memory data to a pc and then format your Internal memory from within the rom
You could try using a couple of wipe scripts by a guy called hawkerpaul....I think they're called 'romwipe' and 'kernelwipe'.......
Use the XDA search function....should be easy enough to find.
It may be that there are some 'leftovers' following the usual wipes (cache, dalvik and data) that are causing conflicts with your fresh installs.....
The above mentioned scripts perform a more in depth wipe....might help.....

i have tried that GS2ROM wipe and nuke scripts already, with no luck ... yes that runs bigger wipe but it still fail to format sdcard .andoidsecure
i think it has do with renaming of the sdcard{silly doubt when recovery states sdcard , it doesnt refer to extsd right?} from sdcard to sdcard0 while installing CM10.1,,
if i could safely erase that {.andoidsecure}, probably things will back to normal .. anyone know how to
oh iam not able to use install from sdcard option in recovery(formerly before flashing any ROM i was able to..i hav to install from "internal memory"
Again iam grabbin at random bcause i want to go bac to custom ROMs. .if any of sounds untechi ..let me remind u i am just , what do they call it.. a noob and i do apologise...

[Q] ThL W200 stucking in Bootscreen -Help!

Hey Guys,
Im a Noob in Android, but i wanted to root my ThL W200 ( i think im not alowed ot post links so look amazon)
That was no Problem i installed some root-apps and i wanted to delete for me useless application from the system ( like calendar)
Dont ask me why, but accidently i delted the SystemUI.apk and so my task bar at the top wasnt there.
I dowloaded another SystemUI.apk and placed it in 2 directories, cause i wasnt sure which was the right one.
After that i wanted to reboot my phone, but it stucks in boot-screen ( i let it there until the battery got empty - nothing happened)
I now think iIl have to install a custom ROM, or what does the expertsin this forum think ?
I tried to connect my device with pc, but i see it for a short period and than its gone.
i know that i have to install the correct USB drivers for that and i died, but somethink goes wrong every time and i dont understand it.
Sorry for my bad English, im not native speaker.
I really hope somebody here will help me, after asking so many people and trieing it many times.
Would be great if a god comes now and heals my wounds
Have a nice day

Hi!
The reason why you got no replies was because you didn't post in the Topic for Thl W200, we spend most of our time there.
Anyway from the looks of it you're gonna need to flash a new Rom. So the easiest thing to do would be to use CWM recovery( in case you flashed it after you rooted your phone). If so, take out your sd card ( or any other way you can) and place this on it : https://disk.yandex.com/public/?hash=WmVa6RHtoBgXgJFZmW/ZMszyAXXmnhGY2rnyD8e6nE0= ( this is the latest stock Rom). The way you enter in recovery mode is to hold the power button and volume up ( or down, I can't remember lol). These are the full steps
"Put the firmware archive to SD-card
Turn off your phone
Hold the volume up key + power to fall into recovery (of course, you need CWM)
We perform:
- Wipe Data / Factory Reset -> delete All User Data
- Wipe Cache Partition -> Wipe cache
- Advanced -> Wipe Dalvik Cache -> Wipe Dalvik Cache
Next Install zip from sdcard -> choose zip from sdcard -> choose the firmware and install it "
If you don't have CWM recovery installed, which is what I think, you're gonna need Sp Flashtools. You can find it and other usable zips which include drivers and extra in this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=47481266&postcount=1191
If you don't know how to use SpFlashtools I recommend doing a search in this Topic( all of the xda members who have the Thl W200 hang out here, you can also ask any question if you've got further problems) : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2348110.
Good Luck!

Did you factory reset and wipe cache partition first before flashing any new rom? You may have to format /system partition as there may be apps still left over from previous installations. Please respect other XDA members as we are always here to help people. If that doesn't work, use the rom nuke script. (Beware: Rom nuke script will delete everything on your phone's storage, make sure to make backups of your data onto your PC first before using the script).
