Unfortunately settings have stopped - Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just flashed a theme zip file from themes and apps section . The phone boots but when I enter into settings I get the error unfortunately settings have stopped.
Not sure if I should maybe wipe cache or something?
I'm running Monxdified rom and don't fancy doing a fresh install. Any help with this error is appreciated :thumbup:

Which theme zip did you flash?

The flashable zip from here >>> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2370849&page=3
I had instaled some of his themes manualy which worked great. But the flashable zip has caused the settings error.

Try deleting the theme apks that you flashed from /system/app then reboot.

Now why didnt i think of that....lol
Worked straight away after removing all apk's

[Q] Cooking Theme Into ROM Help!

Hi,
The issue I am having is as follows;
- I have a theme that Is working fine on my rom, if installed after the rom has booted once.
- If I add the framework-res, framework.jar and android.policy.jar into the update.zip then I get bootloops.
- If I install the rom first, then let it boot, go back to recovery and flash the same files via a seperate update.zip with just them in, It all works FINE.
- If I install the rom and immediately install the theme then I get bootloops.
It is clearly an issue with installing the theme before letting it boot, But why? And how can I fix this??
Any Ideas?
Install Rom, make a wipe dalvik cache & a wipe cache partition, and install your theme.
But the best way is to paste the framework files of your theme in your Rom.

I have added all the files into the rom and get bootloops, the rom auto-wipes data,system,db data, and cache so already done

Notification Bar Gone...Other FC's for Apps

I rooted to CM7 and everything was fine. I should have left well enough alone. I tried to do the fix for HBOGo (the framework.jar replacement) and the fix for Netflix (the build.prop thing) but apparently, I did something wrong. I don't know how to fix this now and am really freaking out.
Build.prop is now back to where it was but the original framework.jar file that I cut and pasted in my root folder to hold in case I made a mistake is gone! So now I'm stuck with this "new" file that is screwing everything up. It has to be...it worked fine until I did this.
Any help here? Is there somewhere I can download the original framework.jar file??? Or do I have to re-install CM7?
Just flash the latest nightly or reflash your current build, you don't have to wipe anything and you'll be back up and running in no time.
Ok, so to do that I go to ROM Manager. And Flash CWM Recovery? Then what?
I am new at this and obviously not the most educated when it comes to all this fancy stuff.
BTW you don't need to edit your build.prop for netflix anymore.

Found the builds...how do I install?
I flashed cwm recovery and fixed permissions but it's still fc'ing the notification bar and also settings. This sucks.
This is what I get:
"The application Status Bar (process.com.android.systemui) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."
Same message as before the flash.

Open the ROM manager in the app drawer go to "download rom" and flash the latest nightly and make sure to wipe cache.

Install CWM without market/recovery mode/file explorer?

So I installed AOKP today coming from darkys ROM 10.2. First of all I wiped/factory reset, wiped cache/dav cache then installed from recovery with the .zip.
Installed ROM all works fine but now I don't have a recovery console. This is a PITA as I can't flash Gapps, I was originally going to get the CWM app APK and install it but I have no file explorer to install the app off my SD card. Without recovery I can't backup stuff, install Gapps or put another ROM on there.
As you can see I'm a little stuck. Help?
EDIT: Nevermind, fixed. I had to get around the android.process.media FCs and then I just downloaded and installed the APK using the browser.

[Q] Can't install secure settings helper

I'm trying to install helper (busy box already installed) however, every time I try to install it, it reboots my phone. Pushing the apk into system\app also reboots the phone. I can push other apk's and remove apk's from system\app just not the helper apk. When I try to flash the securesettingshelper.zip in CWM it says "installation aborted"
I've tried a number of things to get this working including flashing the bulletproof-1.8 kernel. I've also tried doing the fix here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2230341
Does anyone have the helper installed on their device? If so, could you link or guide me through the process?
Thanks
EDIT: solved! not sure what the issue was still, but I just did a full wipe and reinstalled Android Revolution HD 8.0. Perhaps it's because I tried using Rom Cleaner 3.5 for the HTC One X

I got it to work. I just used the normal install from the app itself. nothing special, no apk or cwm zip file. Make sure your root is ok?

yea installing from the app is the first thing I tried. I know my root is good since su is installed and all other apps work fine.
i got the same "installation aborted" when flashing via cmw, but did manual copy paste and change name
(Manually copy to /system/app/SecureSettingsHelper.apk ) and then restart my n7105. now helper is working. will try if pattern unlock is working.
what other people do after installing helper?

Maybe install as user? Though System install should work the way you describe.

Maybe if you put in system/app/ and system/priv-app/, set correct permission for apk and for folder, reboot, and don't wipe dalvik cache as dalvik is not used in lollipop. In fact, wiping cache wouldn't even be necessary for the apps to install correctly.

Hi i Check permissions its correct
You can't. You need to re-sign it with the platform certificate for target firmware. Contact your custom ROM developer for platform key, but they're reserve the right to keep it private for security reasons.
Edit: Nevermind, I see you're using stock firmware still. Make a.request for flushable Zip from them, maybe they broke it with some hack.
