Hello all,

I have updated yesterday to 4.1.2 (using the nakasi JRO03D file flashed via CWM)

Initially all went well (although I get consistently a weird message when booting up: something about office suite stopping unexpectedly), but when I tried to use moonreader this morning my unit crashed. Then I experimented a bit more - as a result the unit froze completely and did not come back to life until I plugged the USB cable in (battery level is 40%)

Various apps are also crashing (office suite for example does not work any more).

Anyone else having problems after 4.1.2. install? Is there a fix?

Please advise...

How do I do a complete wipe? In CWM? Then reinstall?

I am rooted and unlocked

(Sorry I know this is a stupid question - please be patient)
Just boot into CWM
Wipe data/factory reset
Fix permissions
Reboot

You will lose all of your apps and data, so I recommend using something like ROM toolbox to backup your apps.

I havent seen any issues with this.
Did you use the normal release from Google?
Or a 4.1.2 from a User compiled update?

I also have Officesuite and it didn't come up with any errors, although I didn't open any of my apps as I have to rush the install then run to college :D
I only tested the homescreen rotate HAHA !

I think it was the normal release - it looks like everybody else was using the same file. I have removed officesuite and I still have random complete freezes. So maybe it was not office suite...

After playing a bit more (trying to do backup of the installed apps etc.) - now the unit prompts me for a password to decrypt my storage (during boot). I have not seen that before (and I do not have installed a password.). So I think all I can do is a complete wipe and start from scratch...

Not sure what went wrong...

Will do factory wipe tonite to see what happens.
