[Q] problems with process com.android.phone! - Motorola Droid Bionic

problems with process com.android.phone!.
it is the only problem apart from dropping DATA on ICS bionic.
I am running LiquidSmoothBLUR and for some reason it seems to just constantly end this process.
It is stuck in a loop and my phone is unusable.
This happens after my second reboot after a new flash, every time. It works fine for a few reboots and then it just constantly crashes.
I don't know what to do.
Stock ICS OTA 2233 works fine, apart from the data problems -- I'm on ATT US.
anyone offer any help? i'm baffled. I've tried repairing permissions but it still doesn't work!

Well if the ICS leak 2233 worked fine and the problem only happens when you apply the LiquidSmoothBLUR rom then I would point at the rom you are trying to install. Something's borked in your installation or perhaps you're trying to load a program that isn't compatible with LiquidSmoothBLUR. Did you make sure to follow the instructions on installing the rom to the dot? Most roms require you to wipe your cache but if you're installing the rom directly on top of the leak without wiping cache you could run into issues. Or perhaps you're one of the few phones that isn't compatible with the new rom. Try downloading a the rom from a different source and reinstalling it.

it's weird. it happens on nearly EVERY single custom ICS rom, has happened on a leak. and yes I am flashing properly, definitely not missing any steps! wipe dalvik and cache, data, format system, then install the rom, and it is from a good source, checked the MD5 checksums, everything ads up!
another question : installing a custom ICS based on a leak ON TOP of 905 would stop me from downgrading, correct? say if i install project rectacle v2 -- a 232 based motoblur rom -- would it stop me from downgrading?
also -- safestrap is only for the leaks, correct?

I don't think that installing Reticle on top of .905 would even boot up. If it's based on a leak, such as .232, it requires a kernel from one of the leaks to run. If you want to install an ICS ROM on top of .905, you can't use one which was based on a leak. Most of the compatible ones are CM9 based and are either fairly old builds, or specifically say that they can be flashed on the non-leak versions. As for safestrap, there are versions that work with the .905 base, I'm not sure, but I think you need something lower than a 2.x build for that.

[Q] "Android is Upgrading" on every boot

I was running RumRaider until recently I relocked and used the RUU to revert to stock and then upgraded to ICS with the OTA update, which is what I'm currently using. For some reason though, every time I reboot the phone, it does the application optimization thing where it says "Android is Upgrading..." and goes through all of my apps. Any ideas why it is doing this? I have never used ICS before personally but it seems like it shouldn't have to optimize all of my applications on every boot (it takes a long time). Thanks.

i recently got my vivid, and it came with ICS and does the exact same thing. it's my first android, so i was wondering what was going on. after researching various forums, it seems like everyone gets the same "upgrading" thing too.
It's normal on stock roms

It does it on my Rum_Float ROM too. 131 to 98 apps updating every reboot.
Try to wipe your cache and Dalvik cache through recovery.
If that doesn't work, try reflashing your kernel.
Those worked for me
As far as I can tell, this is a "feature" in ICS associated with Odexed ROMs. Once a ROM has been deodexed, or you flash a doedexed ROM, you won't get the message. You will also get this message anytime dalvik cache has been cleared. So if you don't want to see this, you'll need to flash a custom, deodexed ROM.
A question I have is whether the total boot time is much different now with ICS than it was under Android 2.3.4. I seem to recall that my Vivid still took a long time to start up. It just didn't show anything other than the AT&T screen.

[Q] CWM Restores a perfect restore?

I was wondering how perfect of a restore a CWM restore is.
I was running a custom GB ROM (rocket rom to be exact) and it was running flawlessly. I then decided I might try this new CM9 ICS ROM.
So to be sure about the CM9 install, I figure I'd install from a stock GB Rom. So I first did a CWM backup of my current rocket rom and then I restored an older stock (rooted) ROM. It seemed to work fine. Then.... after reading about the (few) issues wit this new CM9 rom I decided I'd wait a bit longer until a few more of the quirks are worked out.
So I then restored back my Rocket rom backup and even doing the flash cache and davik cache also. But now I notice my once working Rocket ROM is experiencing a lot of SODs.
So now I'm wondering how perfect my restore was. I really don't have a lot of apps or wireless networks and can easily restore my contact list. For that reason, do you think it'll help if I do a factory reset wipe and then reinstall everytyhing....or even go so far as reinstall rocket rom and then reinstall everything else manually without any restores...would that be really the best clean install....or would any of this not make a difference at all and wiping/reinstall a toatl waste of time and my prob is actuaully something else....
Thanks
I could do with knowing the answer to these questions too.
It would be good to get a detailed idiots guide to CWM, do's and don't's etc.
Well a clean install will surely get you rid of the SODs. There is some app and its data that is conflicting with the system and crashes the whole phone. So if you are ready to clean install everything that will fix everything

sleep of death, its the device not waking up properly from sleep
Pus it doesnt include efs, so its not complete backup. Handy if yu stay n same rom version, but thats likely not.
Squicky clean install is always best. Even only app and data recovering thought titanium can mess things up. Make it laggy and nonfunctional etc, Blegh

1. Install abyssnote42
2. Factory wipe, cache, dalvik
3. Restore your rocketrom backup
That's what i do with my rocketrom v23 backup
Zapped through server hops to XDA forums
its not perfect but its the best so far
all i can say is that cwm is the best and simple thing for me so far and if u get trouble some times while trying to shift from CM9 to normal ics or from gb to ics all I suggest is use redpill recovery from abbysnote

Yeah, mine does that from the clock on Dragon ICS 2.4 when charging it didn't use to, started since I started Dual Booting. 2.5 is out in the next hour or so according to the Dev page. Hope it fixes an otherwise awesome ROM.. Otherwise it's back to single booting and possibly on to Omega 12 until CheckROM is released..

ICS and GB Roms don't work for me for some reason =/

I've flashed and flashed and flashed both ICS and GB roms on my bionic and I've yet to find one that works. I've had more luck with ICS roms than GB, but still I get roms that the dialer is bugged and you can't hear anyone or anything when using it. My data drops every 2 seconds on both ICS and GB roms.
I've tried Eclipse roms, everything worked fine, but I couldn't hear no one on the phone unless they called me first. So I had to get rid of that one for that reason.
I've tried every ICS rom out there, gummy works the best for me, but I get data drops every 2 seconds, bluetooth (which I use all the time) works, but if you forget to leave it on you can't hear nothing on calls. And for some reason it's started doing the same as Eclipse rom is doing, I can't hear no one on the phone not even if they call me and bluetooth is not on.
I've then tried Liberty rom, and I couldn't get data working period, the phone wouldn't work either.
Did I just get a crappy phone that just doesn't like to be flashed so many times or what?
Are you wiping data, cache & dalvik when you switch ROMs? Not doing wipes is the biggest cause of ROM malfunctions. Some ROMs just don't like it when you don't wipe. ROMs are built under the impression that they're starting out with a blank /data partition.
I ran Eclipse 2.2 for a while and everything on it worked without issue. However, Ice Cream Sandwich ROMs are a problem and will continue to be a problem for everyone. To me, it's a miracle that ICS ROMs even boot up on the Bionic. The locked bootloader means that the kernel cannot be modified except by official Motorola updates. This means that all these ICS builds are running on a Gingerbread kernel.
Yea, I'm wiping everything on each flash.
When I flashed the Eclipse rom, I wiped data, cache, dalvik and everything was fine except the call issue where I couldn't hear anything but people could call me and it'd be fine.
I've had better luck with the ICS roms than the GB roms though for some reason, minus the bluetooth/data issues.
What are you using to Flash, Bootstrap or SafeStrap? I know Eclipse has been giving me minor issues, but all and all it still works. Forget about trying Liberty or even anything else unless the Dev. modifies them to work with the 902 radios. There have been some people trying out the new radio leaks such as 904 and 905, but if they ever issue a true OTA you have to FXZ back to the 902 in order to apply the update. To touch up on some other stuff you can do also is format the internal storage. There could be something in there causing those issues to happen. Before I flash a new 902 compatible rom I go and backup everything important onto my external storage using ES file explore and then format the internal using the storage settings in the system settings.
I do the wipe data/factory reset, not sure if that gets the internal storage or not. Followed by the wipe cache, wipe dalvik.
I was using Safestrap, but FXZ'd back to stock and started using Bootstrap. Right now I'm sitting on the stock rom with bloatware frozen.

Correct, i think. It is probably safest to wipe everything, but might be able to be flashed over wildstangs rom.
cool
I'm gonna wipe everything. I've experienced 1 too many bootloops and hicupps specially with cyanogenmod. My Dinc just never seems to like those Roms
Thank you for this. Been thinking of going to a more stockish rom. The latest roms just have too many bugs and quirks for me.

I literally flashed over wildstang83 Rom . I'm gonna attempt another try but wipe the cache and delvik 1st. Wiping everything didn't do anything. I'll report back soon
Not booting..
Not getting to boot animation... I have tried 3 times now.. Wiped everything..Format boot/storage etc... Anyone get it to work?
I was actually surprised and excited to see this update this morning but thought it would be ICS.
Long ago I rooted my phone just for gaining control and removing bloatware but ended up flashing my first rom with WildStang's Gingerbread OTA. After that I applied the "Warm" theme and been happy with that thinking there would be no more updates to this phone.
To the point - my question for you all is what do you mean by flash over? When the OTA is pushed is it just a patch or do they somehow send and entire install which removes the previous version, saves your data, installs the new version, and puts back your data? I don't have a problem with wiping and starting fresh, and it sounds like that is what everyone is recommending, I'm just trying to understand how it would even work flashing "over" my current version.
Nobody has replied to my post and I have not seen anyone report a trouble free install here so I'm gonna sit on the fence for a while
Did a full wipe and all seems to be working well
?
Just downloaded VR superwipe. I'm gonna redownload this Rom and give it another shot.

Flash over is just how it sounds. Literally flash on top of your current rom without wiping your data out.

I have a question.
I am running an ICS ROM how does this affect me....
Well my QUESTION is this:
What are the procedures to installing this and can I just reflash the ICS ROM I was on before.
The only updates with this push seem to be SMS and Bluetooth, is it even worth it?
Thanks for your time guys....
I performed a data/factory reset, cleared the cache partition as well as did a dalvik wipe but after installing it gets stuck on the white Incredible screen. Any ideas? Perhaps my kernal/radio? I honestly lost track of what kernal and radio I have so I am not sure.
So what's up with this ROM, I flashed like 3 times And it boots up.....then it starts a random reboot and just bootloops continuously. Is there any fix?
EDIT: seems the OTA update was a bust check this out........

So guy - you put this out here and it seems like everyone is having problems. How about some feedback. I'm getting ready to sell this phone in two weeks and want it to be on the current version but I'm not touching this ROM until I hear it freakin works. There are always a few people with issues but I'm not hearing anyone saying "flashed it and running with no problems". Appreciate the effort to get this out there but if your gonna take the time follow through on your commitment.

Droid bionic flashing issues

I am running the most current version of Liquid ICS on my Droid Bionic and it is rooted and I use safestrap. However recently in the past couple of days when I have tried to flash it to a different ROM (i.e. AOKP, CM9, MIUI, etc) I get the motorola screen on reboot and then my screen goes and stays blank and does not load. I then have to pop my battery out and wipe wipe wipe and then restore.......Any advice??? (yes I also installed my gapps)

Hey man I have been having the same issue(s) as well. I have tried both CWM, and Safestrap following the typical clear cache/factory reset/wip dalvik etc(currently I am on .233). I suspect these roms (AOKP, and CM9, MIUI, etc) simply do not work on any of the other leaked based ROMS. From testing(I have tried everyone lol), they install fine on .902 based firmware some even work on .905, but installing over any of the ICS leaks seems to create boot loops(test in CWM, and Safestrap the results are the same). I would recommend flashing back to .902/905 and trying again. I am smelling a lot of bullshting come from people who say they are able to flash over any of the ICS Leaks. btw are you using CWM(4.x.x.x/5.x.x.x) or Safestrap?

Yes, I would flash back the dev's are not putting correct information out most of these ROM'S (AOKP/CM9Gummy, etc) are not designed to be installed over any of the OTA Leaks(people keep insisting on it), and will cause boot loops like crazy. I have tested on two bionic's and the results where the same flashing over any ICS Leak to AOKP/CM9 etc will cause issues regardless of what 2nd stage boot loader you are using(Safestrap, or CWM via bootstrap). I would recommend flashing back to 902, or 905 using the SBF/FXZ method and installing eclipse 3.0(for .905 baseband), or sticking with the OTA Leaks untill the issues with flashing ROMS in both Safestrap, and CWM have been resolved or the dev's actually give solid advice(i.e. what firmware is actually needed, or what flashing requirements should be meet. Thanks again!!!
