[Q] Phone unusable - Launcher Pro (android.process.acore)

Hi everyone,
I was using my nexus one with low battery, and then it shut down.
I went back to car, attached it to the recharger, and pushed power button.
At this point it turned on and a setup similar to first boot appeared (selection of language, date & time, google account)..
Once the setup was completed, I pressed the home button and associated it with Launcher Pro.
At this point a popup message appeared, saying (translated from italian):
"Sorry! Sudden interruption of the application Launcher Pro (process Android.process.acore). Retry.", with a button named "Retry".
- If I press the "Retry" button, the same popup message appears on and on again.
- If I shut the phone down and restart it, it asks for the SIM pin, the unlock pattern, and then the popup message appears again and again..
- I can't access the menu through the button, and I am stuck in this situation!..
- I tried to uninstall Launcher Pro via appbrain about two hours ago, but with no luck..
Any help would be much appreciated..
Thanks!

Assuming you aren't rooted, I just want to let you know you always have the last resort of resetting the phone back to default, so the phone itself is still fine.
With root, you can ADB and remove LauncherPro.

Hi cigar3tte,
I'm not rooted, so I could "reset the phone back to default".
Do you mean reset it to factory default (aka hard reset)?
Note: If I press the menu button at the bottom of the device, nothing happens and the popup keeps showing up
However, the procedure I found for the hard reset is this:
"With the phone shut off, while holding down the volume button on the side of the N1, press the power button briefly while maintaining the volume button pressed in for around 5-10 seconds.
You should be presented with a menu that allows for: Fastbook, Recovery, Clear Storage, and Simlock. You can release the volume button at this time.
Select Clear storage with the volume button up and down, then press and release the power button to make the selection.
It will ask you to confirm this decision. Press the yes button using the volume up."
Should i proceed so?
Thanks!

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Yes, I meant a factory reset. Before doing so, check for any data you might want to save.
As for the method, what you found should work fine. I've never done a hard reset from the default recovery. I've only done it from the phone itself (which you can't access) and custome recovery.

Hi cigar3tte,
I followed your suggestion and did the shut-off-and-on procedure.
After that, I was asked to complete the initial configuration (time, google account, etc). and I am now on the home screeen!
Thank you so much for your help!

For future reference, you would probably have been able to fix this without wiping... turn the phone on, then when the X appears hold the trackball, it should boot in safe mode and you can remove/clear data as needs be.

AuraxTSense ROM - I know someone having this issue, anything they can try short of full wipe?

[Q] Can't Get Past "LogicPD Zoom2" setup

I rooted my color nook and it just didn't seem to be working correctly so I did extensive reading here on how to unroot it. I did a hard reset and all seems well through the B&N registration process but then the Android character comes on the screen with "Welcome to logicPD Zoom2" at the bottom of the screen and it makes me go through a google registration process BUT the software thinks the Nook is a phone and so of course can't connect to complete the registration.
I can cancel out of that but the "extras" screen still shows the "Market" App, Superuser app, etc. whih o course means that it is still rooted.
I have tried cancelling out of the google registration process and activiating a wireless connection (which works fine) and then signing in through gmail and I get a screen that says "Your phone needs to communicate with Google servers to set up your account. This may take up to five minutes." This is then followed by a screen that says "Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server. This could be a temporay problem or your phne may not be provisioned for datat services. If it continues, call Customer Care."
So it is not unrooting and it still thinks it is a phone. I have ttried the "8 times" powering up and can't get past the fifth time without it just continuing through the boot process.
Thanks for reading this far. I would appreciate any guidance.

I would keep trying the 8 times reboot process, then after that has completed you have to erase it and de-register it.
You can also try the 2nd method of 8 times reboot through adb,
Set the Boot counter to 8 by typing
If you have installed adb to your desktop, and if your computer is in a state where adb is working, you can go to the directory where you have adb.exe installed and type the following three commands:
adb shell
echo -n -e "\x08\x00\x00\x00" > /rom/devconf/BootCnt
reboot
Part two: ReImage the /data part. This is called Factory Reset
After re-imaging /system in step one, you need to perform a SECOND process to clear /data.
Method 1: Hardware Key Combination
With the NOOKcolor powered off hold down the n button (home) and Power Button until the NOOKcolor powers on.
You will be prompted with a Factory Reset dialog.
Press POWER key to Exit
Press HOME key to continue
Press n button (home).
You will be prompted to confirm.
Press POWER key to Exit
Press HOME key to continue
Press n button (home).
A Clearing Data dialog will show. NOOKcolor will reboot automatically once complete.
Method 2: "Erase & Deregister Device"
Go to Settings
Select "Device Info" under the top "Device Settings" section
Select "Erase & Deregister Device"
Select the "Erase & Deregister Device" button
You will be prompted with the following confirmation dialog
Are you sure you want to reset your Nook?
Doing so will return your Nook to factory settings, erase local content and deregister this device.
Cancel Reset Nook
Select the "Reset Nook" button
A Deregistration message will appear and NOOKcolor will reboot.
Upon reset a Clearing data message will appear
Clearing data...
A reset is being performed.
This may take a few minutes.
NOOKcolor will reboot again once complete.

As stated above, you can't just do one or the other, you have to do both the 8 resets and then the factory reset.

This worked!!!
I was able to get through the "eight times" method using the power button (which is a good thing and the adb option is likely beyond my abilities). It seems that the power button needs to be held down for at least ten seconds after the scrren goes dark each time.
I then used "Method 2" of data clearing and I am back to out of the box condition.
You guys are rock stars. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

i have this same error and am not near my PC, bummer .

Variation of this problem - troubleshooting suggestions?
Can someone suggest a way out of THIS problem?
NC will not boot if SD card is inserted. (Tried 2 different cards with clockwork).
NC boots to LogicPd Zoom2 welcome screen if started without SD card - but icons are unresponsive.
Tried 3 button reset and then restarting 8 times from LogicPd Zoom 2 screen - no luck.
Tried the same from the ANDROID welcome screen just before Logic PD Zoom screen - no luck.
Loaded SDB on my computer but can't get it to recognize the NC; no device is detected. (Tried changing up drivers with no effect).
Tried letting the NC power run down to zero. Won't start in this state and when I recharge, it puts me back into Logic PD screen.
The only progress I've made is that if I let the NC run down to 15% battery power, I get a low battery icon. Clicking that icon will take me to the android settings menu.
Any ideas on what's wrong and how to correct given the limited control I have?

LogicPD Zoom loop - one solution
I finally was able to get out of the loop AND install CM7 by following directions found here -

For whatever reason, this clockwork image DOES boot from SD card. Previous images I had tried, including a recovery image, did not work...

[Q] G1 Broken - No Menu - Sorry! Process.com.android.phone is not responding.

Hi,
I searched for threads on this problem and found similar ones but not exactly as my problem.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=871124
I tried getting the Angry Birds app and my phone had a message saying I didn't have enough space. I then started getting the message "Sorry! Process.com.android.phone is not responding. Force Close." I uninstalled some apps, including the app I just downloaded. Rebooted the phone and now I cannot see a menu.
I see a black screen with that message popping up constantly. I can connect my SD card to the computer. I can go into the debug mode. My WiFi is still on with my simcard still working. Still no menu, just a black screen.
I know my phone is rooted. Forgot which firmware. I found a file with update-cm-5.0.8-DS.
I don't want to lose any contacts on this phone. Is there a way I can get them before doing a hard or factory reset? Also, how do I do these resets?
Thanks in advance.

Try booting up in safe mode by holding the menu button while powering up.
If your phone is registered with your google account, your contacts should automatically get saved on that.

[Q] MEMO PAD 7 ME170C Demo App Offline issue

uPlease help,
I just tried to root my Asus memo pad 7 (Not HD) but it installed or activated a Demo Mode so a pop up message appears every time I block the tablet, and unistalls everything, everytime I reboot the tablet. I tried to wipe data but unsuccessful.
I got frustrated trying to find a solution.

Hey there. This is a common issue and it was already addressed, but I will try to answer anyway:
Once you activated the Demo mode, you'll have to get out of it by pressing the back button for more than 10 seconds. It will ask a password and you should enter 741603. After this, the device will reset itself to factory settings and you will loose everything. You cannot avoid this factory reset once you've activated the Demo mode.
To root the device, get the RootZenFone v1.4.6.4r from here. Install the app and follow the instructions exactly like they are written:
1. Forget the WiFi network you're connected on and shut down WiFi.
2. Open the app.
3. Read all the stuff. Twice.
4. Press the Root me (or whatever) button. The Demo mode will activate, but don't panic, it is normal. If you proceed with caution and don't do any stupid thing, it will work.
5. Wait 10 seconds (count to 10 using "one thousand" or "mississippi").
6. Reboot the device (long press the power button and select reboot).
Good luck!

I have same problem but i don't know when I must press back button. I try it on home screen but nothing happened

I has it it on my memo 8 gnu I don't know how to remove it

[Q] error updating to lollipop (solved)

Details:
moto x purchased from web site, for use on Tmobile
i'm currently deployed. Lucky enough to have WiFi on base and T-mobile so communication home this deployment has been amazing. Saw lollipop came out today. downloaded it. installed it. phone boots up with the regular "TOMMYBOT Mobile" and then the spinning M worlds. then it gives me the password (for the decryption). it took a min and then said some error about corrupt files and that i needed to factory reset my phone. so i pressed the button and nothing happened... so i powered down the phone. and then everything started up the same. but when i put in my password to decrypt it takes a minute and then says starting android.... and then the screen goes black. tried 5 times. longest i waited was 30min. (left it over night now, so 6 ish hours)
i can start my phone pressing the power and volum down and it brings up a fastboot menu? but even from there the factory reset option just boots my phone back up as if i pressed the power button.
any help is appriciated.
thank you,
tom
Edit: followed these instructions (cant link, motorola global portal)
and a matching youtube video and i get stuck at the dead android with the triangle "!" sign mine says "No command." under him and i cant get the next menu to open
asked for help here (link motorola forums help) they suggested verizon assistant app. the program
i've treid 3 times now. each time the start repair makes a command "getvar all" come up on the bottom half of my fast boot screen. and then thats where it stays. the "Repair" button on the right does not become clickable.
Solution:
once on the dead android screen to open the next menu it was press and hold volume up AND power for 3-5 seconds together .
from there i did the data wipe/factory reset and booting up i'm already on lollipop. of course all un clouded data lost but i'm just glad to have a phone again.
