Root com.android.keyguard has stopped...

I can't do ANYTHING here, this thing keeps popping up... I haven't done anything else to my phone other than install the new ROM we got, not that I'm blaming that, but still... it's pretty annoying when this happens.. :(

You can push a keyboard app by using your computer.Go to play store with your pc browser,Log in to your Google account,Click apps.
Then click on a keyboard app you want to install and click install.
Or you could go into your keyboard app and clear cache and data.
Or you could even try a factory reset.
 
No luck with that, or any of those D: I need someone's backup from their phone T.T I'm not sure why this had to happen to meee...

EDIT: Fixed fastboot access and added download mode, I'm reflashing my firmware :3 Yaaay!
 
I'm sorry to be a gravedigger here but I am utterly dumbfounded and exhausted from trying to figure the same thing out as OP. I have run so many different utilities to attempt to reflash this thing and it all boils down to Windows not recognizing the device even exists when plugged in. I installed drivers every way that has been suggested, from generic ones to, of course, Google's usb drivers. It showed once in Device manager and immediately disappeared once I noticed it. Now it doesn't show any devices even being plugged in to any port on the computer. Mainly, I have used WUG's. Now, after trying the simplest thing I didn't even think of, (factory wipe from Clockworkmod recovery menu) it is bricked and is just sitting at the "Google" splash screen with a lock image at the bottom. I attempted similar processes from my Ubuntu machine as well, thinking that Windows was the hinderance. No dice!

I am BEYOND frustrated and wondering if I have ANY options other than trashing it because my warranty is out...

EDIT: oops! I also forgot to mention I am on a Nexus 7, 2013 wifi. I believe I was on Kit Kat at the time.
 
I forgot to mention that all my usb ports work properly with anything else plugged in to them! I have also tried multiple chords. I have tried the keyboard push--logging into my account(which Google device manager finds and shows me where I am on the map, mind you). I have downloaded the sdk packages, etc. adb and fastboot both return no devices found.
 
Okay, so.. Keyguard is your lock screen. Its forceclosing for some unknown reason. I've had this happen to me for several different reasons, anytime I factory reset in cwm for example. Are you folks telling me you never made a nandroid backup?

Then you'll have to push the stock lgkeyguard.apk(/system/priv-app) and lock screen settings.apk(/system/app) via adb.

I cannot provide you with mine as I have heavily modified it and it only supports insecure lockscreens.

Your solution? Get into fastboot and flash recovery for your device and find a compatible ROM to flash.You can't get it to recognize because when you factory reset it, it turned USB debugging off.
Literally, your only hope is reaching fastboot.

What do I do to access these? I cannot get it to recognize that it is being plugged in via usb to be able to access it with fastboot, etc.

Yeah I figured it was going to be my only option now and I guess I am completely screwed because it won't recognize it...I don't quite understand. I just tried to make sure that the usb was working and apparently it is. I got into bootloader mode and powered it off completely, plugged in the usb and it cuts it on and charges. It still doesn't show in device manager. Bootloader shows in red text "fastboot mode" and at the bottom says "unlocked". Also, when looking through drivers with USBdeview from WUG's tools, I see NOTHING regarding Google, Android, etc, etc, even though they've been installed multiple times with different methods to be sure.....Any clues?

BTW, thank you guys so much for helping thus far. :D

Disregard that first post of mine, you do not own the L70 so it does not apply to you.

If you have fastboot, can you boot into recovery from the bootloader screen? Maybe a simple nandroid can fix your problem, I'm surprised you don't have one since the very first step to HAVING a custom recovery is to make a backup.
 
SOLVED!

I know this is an old thread but i hope someone will find this helpful.
This error showed up on my device after reboot. I had changed this: "SETTINGS->DATA USAGE-> (select your carrier)->SET MOBILE DATA LIMIT" to on. This was causing trouble on my phone.
After reboot the "keyguard" error showed up all the time without possibly doing anything.

I managed to solve it by scrolling the lock screen (until it shows another lockscreen widget). Then i could scroll down my android menu bar, and go to "SETTINGS->DATA USAGE-> (select your carrier)->SET MOBILE DATA LIMIT" and turned it to "off".

Hope this helps. Keep in mind i had to do lots of trial and error to make this work. Good luck from me!
