Galaxy Note 10.1: Unfortunately, System UI has stopped

[Shannon Carnevale]

A few days ago it started. Whenever I push the home button or anything on that panel I get the message "Unfortunately, System UI has stopped". Then I have to press ok. It even does that sometimes when I'm in the middle of a game (bingo or something like that) or yesterday it happened when I was using Polaris Office to fill out my paperwork for work. Is anyone else having this problem and does anyone know what I could do to fix it? My Note 10.1 is not even 2 months old and was running perfectly until I would say 4-5 days ago.

Re: Unfortunately, System UI has stopped

Any changes you did to the device leading up to this event?

Is the device stock? Using anything like a 3rd party launcher, etc?

Re: Unfortunately, System UI has stopped

Device is stock... no altering it of any sort. The only thing it may have done was an update to 4.1.2 but I can't remember when exactly it did that update. No other changes at all... I haven't even installed any apps in the past 2 weeks or so.

My s3 did this

You have to do a factory restore through your computer.
It sucks and samsung onky says sorry.

Re: Unfortunately, System UI has stopped

Yeah the system UI, apk is what runs your status bar. If you can work your way through the phone while closing the annoying error messages, go into your settings, then applications, and view all applications. Scroll down to System UI, click it and hit clear cache then clear data and reboot.

if that doesn't work the only thing you can do without being rooted is to do a factory reset.

Clearing cache didn't work for me in that the message kept popping up so I did a force stop. Then the error message goes away. If the message is still popping up, even after rebooting it will just return. Only thing is, the "show all running apps" button doesn't work. I also can't change my wallpaper without it coming back so I'm stuck with the default live wallpaper. I was having system memory issues leading up to this so I switched from Apex Launcher to the CyanogenMod launcher and boom - Error message when I tried changing the wallpaper.

You said that factory reset was the only option if you aren't rooted. What's the option if you are?

Re: Unfortunately, System UI has stopped

My new IRULU 10.1 tablet started that same nonsense after only having it for 4 days. I did factory reset but it still will not boot. I do not even have an SD card in it. Would it help to factory reset again or should I return it to the seller?

Re: Unfortunately, System UI has stopped

I am new to this, so excuse me if I am doing something wrong. A couple of days ago I was using my tablet at work. When I got home,noticed it was off and battery dead. Charged and turned on then found unfortunately, system UI has stopped. Also have unfortunately, settings has stopped any time I click on storage. I tried resetting with no change. Please help, very frustrating.

Re: Unfortunately, System UI has stopped

I had this same issue while using Jellykang, But i fixed it instantly by doing the following:

Error: Unfortunately, System UI has stopped

1: Go to settings
2: Click Navigation
3: Click Halo
4: Un-check "Enable HALO"

The messages should stop at last!
I remembered poking it to see what it was but then left it on. I found this solution by retracing my steps.

Re: Unfortunately, System UI has stopped

Yes, I have been getting the same error message for the last four or five days. I'm also getting "Unfortunately, Default lock screen has stopped" as well. I took it to Verizon and did a factory reset, but the messages are back.

Re: Unfortunately, System UI has stopped

Two weeks ago, I upgraded, my tablet Samsung Galaxy 2 10.1, to 4.2.2, after that moment I am getting the same problem "Unfortunately, System UI has stopped". The tablet is not rooted. I did a soft-reset through the 'setting' and I have done several hard-reset, but still the same problem. I even connect it to the PC anf run Kies and It said that the tablet SO is updated. Still the same problem, I appreciated any help.
