I rooted my phone (Samsung Galaxy Note GT-N7000) using CyanogenMod software about a year back. Right now I'm using Paranoid Android on my phone from last 3 Months. Recently, i tried changing my theme by downloading a application from Google Play Store. While applying the theme, i selected all the option (Boot Animation, Wallpaper, Icons etc). I liked the theme but not the icons, so i again went to settings and tried removing the icons. Ones the setting was applied, system.ui stopped functioning properly. Every time, i unlocked the phone it used to say system.ui not responding - force close. So i thought of re-installing Paranoid Android. I switched my phone off and used Volume Down+Menu+Power Key for the root menu to open. Since then, the phone is not switching on nor the root menu is opening. What should I do? Please help!! :crying:

Hi Guys,
Every couple of days I notice that my icons on the app menu have been re-arranged, I'm not sure if it's after sim changes and controlled restarts, or after a shut dow due to drained battery.
This is incredibly irritating, as it sometimes places just two apps per page on my grid view, resulting in 13 partially pages of apps on grid view! I've tried grouping my apps into folders, but on my last restrt it emptied them back onto the screen.
My phone is stock, non rooted, any ideas? I've done a quick search of this forum and google but to no avail.
Thanks for all the help in advance!

I have the same problem, my phone is rooted, and running CheckROM v4, with DarkKnight v2.3
My go lockers themes aren't working. The only one that works are the two optional themes that come with Go Locker. I've tried downloading new ones from the market but when I click the powers button twice, it just resets itself to a default one(that boring one wig the field). I also turned off the nook and rebooted it and still nothing. Any ideas?
I just got this phone a couple of days ago. So far, I've got TWRP, Chroma (12 Apr version since any of the later updates don't work for me), and SuperSU up and running. I've also got Nova Launcher and Greenify as well. Once in a while, I'll get a pop up that says "[APP NAME] has been granted superuser permissions for an interactive shell". It's usually Nova Launcher or Greenify that does this, and right after that, I'll notice that my notification drawer won't come down anymore. Technically, I can force the drawer to come down by changing the gesture in Nova Launcher (both this and Greenify still work fine), but it's basically the entire top part of the screen that becomes nonfunctional. I can't click anything that happens to be there, be it the Google search bar or the menu buttons within any given app. When I turn it horizontal, the nonfunctional part of the screen turns with it as well.
I'm not sure what the problem is, but it does go away after I reboot my phone. Half the times it will work, half the times it won't.

I would venture a guess and say this could be an issue with Nova. I don't recall Nova needing superuser privileges though from when I used it on my rooted G3, but that, perhaps, has changed. I would restore a backup, if you have one, or try a different launcher and see if the problem persists before going further. Start with the simple fixes first. :good:
So today, after loading an app, my Nokia 8 decided to reboot itself. After rebooting, a few things ceased to function.
The Home button no longer worked. The recent apps button stopped working, I can pull down the notification bar however, the settings button and extending the notification bar to show notifications no longer functioned.
On top of this, Google Play stopped functioning with regards to installing software and you will notice that you cannot access the developer options anymore (as well as all your personal settings being reset!)
Was at a complete loss at what to do... I managed to install the Nova Launcher from an apk file from there accessed the short cuts to the Setting Wizard and re-ran it.
You can re-run the setting with the same email address and as soon as it's finished, everything should be working back to normal. You may need to reset a few preferences (such as keyboards etc / glance screen etc) but at least all the buttons work again.
Step instructions:
- Download Nova Launcher. If you cannot from the google play store, search for it on Chrome and download an apk version
- Install it (you may get a pop up advising you need to let apps installed from chrome, go to settings and allow it)
- Once installed, click on Open. This should launch the Nova Launcher
- Long press anywhere on the screen
- Choose Widgets.
- Look for the Activities widget and hold and place it anywhere on the screen.
- Scroll down to Setup Wizard. There's two, one that's "Setup Wizard" and the other "SetupWizard" without a space. Choose the first. There should be an option under it called ".SetupWizardUpgradeActivity". It might be slightly different for you pending the version OS you have but that's what came up for me.
- Select that to create the widget shortcut then click to open.
- This will bring you to the setup wizard and then just click Next all the way through (turn off any preferences you may have in the past)
And voila. Back to normal afterwards!
Note: You don't need to use Nova Launcher as your default launcher. You can even uninstall it if you want.
Works!
Thank you, this totally worked!
I think Skype crashing and crashing the phone caused this for me. It's getting an uninstall as a special thank you.
Cheers,

Please help! I don't see any option for setup wizard!
i upgraded to Pie 9 (One UI) official update. But after restarting the home screen won't come. It continuosly says "Samsung Experience Home keeps stopping" and gives option ..App Info ...Close App and Send Feedback.
I basically can;t use my phone. I can't get into Phone or any App. Phone bricked!
Do you get a chance to go to settings and maybe uninstall updates for SEH app or swap to Easy mode. Does it work if you boot in Safemode? As last restort, you might have to factory reset (make a backup using smartswitch if pos.)
No even settings malfunctions. I cannot go to the app screen, where i see the apps. How to boot in safemode?
Safe mode doesnt allow me to uninstall anything under Samsung Experience Home
Can you change to Easy mode so that it circumvents SEH ? Then once out of safe mode try to uninstall updates for SEH or download another launcher and set it as default. You are not using any themes by any chance?
Luckily i had Nova Launcher. When i exited Safe MOde and rebooted it asked me whether it should use Nova or SEH. I chose Nova "Always" and phone is back on
Here's the solution according to Samsung. See screenshot.
Also if you use one hand operations+ , disabling its animations FC the launcher for me.
