Force Close on editing contacts - myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey all,
Every time I try to edit contacts on my phone today, all of a sudden, I get a Force Close. It had been working perfectly fine but it's crashing on me on aany contact today that has a lot of info in it. One number and nothing more doesn't seem to crash.
Any ideas? And thoughts on how I can remedy this? Will exporting to the SD and then back again do anything?

Are you using a custom rom or stock? It could also be an app that's causing it or something as simple as rebooting the phone.

No, this is totally on stock everything. I've tried rebooting. Didn't help.

I would say pull out the battery and see what happens. If not then restart the device.

What do you mean pull it and see what happens? Pulling out the battery would mean putting it back in and restarting right? So do you mean a hard reset?

I believe others have fixed this by wiping and re-flashing.

I haven't heard of/experienced this at all myself. But I bet if you try Juice Defender from the market, it'll be able to keep your wifi off. No idea why it's happening though.
I had the same problem. It was cause by my battery meter app. Try uninstalling and using a different one.

Soft Keys

I turned on my inc2 this morning, and I noticed my soft keys were gone. On this phone, there is no outline of them, so I'm just having to guess where they are. Does anyone know how I can solve this problem?

Try restarting the phone. Or do a soft reset

sounds like it's a hardware issue, I would send for a replacement, or bring it to Verizon.
I mean besides flashing a known ROM with working lights I don't know what you mean by "fix" you can do.. and If you aren't rooted.. def bring it to Verizon..
Yeah just take it to Verizon. It's your best bet

[Q] Screen turns on randomly

Hello everyone... I come to you with a rather annoying problem. I am running Calkulin's latest GB rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1332837 and it happens at the lock screen. My phone's screen will be off and then every so often it'll randomly turn on. It doesn't do it constantly, but enough to be obnoxious. Does anyone else have this issue? I use WidgetLocker Lockscreen (paid for), but it does it with the standard lockscreen as well.
Thanks in advance!
Try uninstalling widget locker and see if the problem is still present? It could also be a setting in widget locker!

I uninstalled WidgetLocker and rebooted my phone and it hasn't done it just yet, so we'll see how it goes. Thanks. Too bad though, I like that program D:
Edit: It's doing it again without WidgetLocker :\
Try wiping cache & davlik. If that doesn't work, then try fix permissions in recovery too.
Edit: Could be an app waking the phone too. Have you tried turning off sync or freezing apps yet?

Not yet, I'll give that a shot if the wiping cache, davlik, and fixing permissions doesn't work. Here's hoping! I have titanium backup pro so I can freeze apps... I know a few things sync like google calendar.
EDIT: Still does it ;-;
Which apps should I freeze?
It might be overkill, but you could just back up texts, calls, and apps, then reflash your rom or try another. Just do a fresh install, don't restore data with your apps. It might be the quickest means to an end. Also, if it does it on multiple roms, it's possibly an issue with the power button. Give her a squirt of canned air before you go running off to the sprint store. Good luck!

Going to give this a shot, I don't have anything to lose. :x I don't have the zip file at work, but I'll download it and see how it goes. :3 Thanks. I'm trying my restore point from before I ever installed a custom ROM to see how that works first, though.
Go SMS had this under settings if you use that app

I had to reflash and reinstall without data restoring on all my apps. I restored a few key apps data and now it's not doing it again. Too bad I had to go to such extreme measures thoguh.

My wifes phone started doing that after I installed ad away... My guess is every time it blocked an air push ad it momentarily woke up. We also thought it might be a locker app or a recent update but removing ad away did the trick. Shame cause it works at killing ads.

I believe there is a wake on notifications option too. See if you can find that and make sure it is turned off

Most of the rom developers will implement ad blocking in their rom build. I know for a fact that Calkulins' use it. So you don't need to install anything else.
Sometimes they list that info on their OP.

Right right, I haven't had any issues since reflashing and everything... I had everything important backed up and I restored bit by bit and it's still doing well. I like the nice, clean feeling now Thanks for all of the help everyone.
And I read his OP but I guess I forgot ;-;

It has a setting where it will turn the screen on everytime you get a text like the iphone does. It doesnt sound like that is your issue though considering the way you say it happens randomly and you didnt mention anything about it happening when you get texts.

Someone please help me. I have had two lg optimus g by aT&t . It randomly pauses when I wake it and sometimes doesn't turn on the screen out of sleep. Then something it reboots while in my pocket. I have got rid of all apps I can possible get rid of that I downloaded and rest catch memory and it still comes back.

Is your phone rooted or stock
Sent from my LG-E973 using xda app-developers app
I had a weird issue similar to this over the weekend. One minute my phone was fine then the next minute I tried to wake it and the screen wouldnt come on. I even held the power button down (to turn on or off) and nothign was happening. I was like "W....T....F......?!?!" I was pretty nervous as I LOVE this phone. I couldnt think of anything to do and I couldnt plug it into a PC or charger since I was at a bar with some mates. Long story short...after a few attemps to just keep pressing the power button down lol it finally started up from a reboot.
Very weird indeed....everything has been fine since and I am running stock.
