I've been getting intermittent force closes with my Gallery app after I've been browsing through photos for 5-10 minutes. Has anyone experienced this and if so, any solutions?

On what rom? I would pull the gallery from a previous version and push it to the app dir, and try again.

I'm getting poor battery life with Syndicate Frozen because of the Gallery battery bug. I did a lot of searching and read a lot about it, but I can't seem to find any fixes. Is there any way to work around this except rebooting every time you use the gallery? If I forget to do it my battery gets drained super fast.
Why not just delete the gallery app and use quickpic or another one from the android market. That's what I do. I love quickpic.

I do the same and agree. Haven't looked back since.

So to delete the stock gallery, I can just go into Titanium Backup, select gallery and delete?
If I ever have to flash back to stock, will the gallery still be deleted?

If you flash with Odin, it will be there. Either use Titanium or Root Explorer to delete it. I use Gallery++.
What gallery battery bug? I even googled to no avail.

There was a bug in DK28 and EB13 (or could have been the Gallery app itself) that caused the G-sensors to go runaway even after closing the gallery process. This would drain the battery. I have not experienced this bug in EC05, but it might have to do with the fact that Mammon uses a modified Gallery App in Bonsai.
The Gallery uses the G-sensors for the tilt effect, but should not continue to do so after the app is closed. You can use Spare Parts to test for it's presence.
1.- Hook your phone up to the charger briefly to clear the battery stats/history.
2.- After you unplug your phone, open the Gallery briefly then close it.
3.- Plug your charger into your phone again to clear the battery history, then unplug it.
4.- Open Spare Parts and click on "Battery history". Then click on the tab at the top that says "Other usage", then select "Sensor usage".
If you see the Gallery listed as one of the processes, then you have the bug.
As I stated earlier, I have not seen it in EC05 (at least not in Bonsai), but it can't hurt to check.
Edit: I just checked my Stock Epic and it does have this bug. My other Epic running Bonsai 4.0.1 does not.
Confirmed, the version of the Gallery used in Bonsai 4.0.0 and greater has been fixed.
So far, all other Gallery apk's I've tested have replicated this issue. Be careful installing themes that include the Gallery, as they probably have not been fixed yet.
That must be the explanation for my battery drain as well. I've uninstalled it and switched to quickpic. No regrets so far.

I prefer Quickpic myself, but if anyone not running Bonsai wanted to use the 3dGallery, they could just install Mammons version.
I like the 2d gallery better. 3d is just nonsense, IMHO.
This just started yesterday. Everytime I launch the People app, it immediately Foce Closes. The only reference to this I was able to find were some old references to FB causing this. I tried their fixes but id did not work. Any suggestions?
Are you using the Google+ leak from ICS? It causes People to FC.

That's what it was. thank you soooooooo much!
Just wanting to start a list as to which apps/files have been been checked to see if after removing won't mess up the phone. I want to debloat this as much as possible
I've removed all at&t apps except smart wifi
removed Polaris office, live wallpapers, Facebook, city ID
want to remove YP but it says LG YP and looks like there is some link to it from the contact book that may break, if someone has already done that please post.
Not going to touch any Google apps yet since looks like some are getting security errors on reboot
what else have you guys deleted and haven't had any issues
has anyone deleted that other setting app for tabbed view... May just disable it since I don't really need two next to each other

You have to root it and then use titanium backup to remove or freeze apps.
Better to freeze them first to make sure you don't delete something that will cause issues later.
Hope this helps.

....Or just install root explorer and delete them through that. Freezing apps does nothing.

Installed the update from AT&T, then applied this root. Works great, no problems.
Going to go start freezing some of the bloat...

Not a good idea at all until we have usable recovery. As linked above, some of the apps are intertwined tightly within the lg security and you will lock down your phone if you remove the wrong app. The linked poster removed Google Movies and that borked his phone.
Freezing is fine for me for now. It is not as if the bloat is causing lag, this phone is fast.
The security issue seems to be happening if Google apps were tampered. I've removed every AT&T app except myAT&T along with the Browser and Email app and even the EasySettings, and haven't gotten the security screen.
I removed most of the ATT Apps. Also got rid of LG YP. All it did was make it so the yp link in contacts doesn't work. Just an error message, no force closing.
Also added 4.2 keyboard and camera as well as SVoice. Replaced LGs weird browser with stock ICS. Loving this thing so far.
I've frozen everything with AT&T and YP in it, so far no problems. I'm also using everything I restored from my SGSIII. Apex, SwiftKey X, Handcent, etc...

How'd you get the stock browser to work? This is the only piece I can't get to work. It always force closes when trying to open it.

I got an AOSP 4.0.4 browser apk, moved it to system/apps via root browser. Renamed the lg browser to browser.bup (just to keep a stock backup copy) wiped dalvik and rebooted. Permissions need to be set to rw-r-r.
Hope that helps ya.

No go, moved it to /system/app, chmod 644, deleted /data/dalvik-cache and rebooted. Still Force closes. Any chance you can share your APK? Mine is supposed to be from the GSM Galaxy Nexus but you never know...
EDIT: Nevermind, just grabbed a Browser.apk off some random CyanogenMod 9 ROM. Didn't like it moved to /system/app, but took it fine when sideloaded as a regular APK. Go figure.
Wow, Google should've kept this browser. It blows Chrome out of the water in terms of smoothness and functionality.

Did it the same way as mentioned for the browser. Could never get photo sphere working, but i like the interface of the 4.2 camera so much more.
I once had a lg nitro hd and after removing all the bloat i safely could i found that my battery life was amazing. Has anyone experienced that on this phone too?
We should make a list of what we are freezing/removing.
Also, I've been trying to get the browser trick to work all morning... no dice. I can't even get it to show up. Had my friend send me browser.apk from his AOKP rom, and just realized its Jelly Bean.... might be the problem. Haven't tried the camera trick yet..
EDIT:
Ok I got the browser working. Used CM9 rom. Its sooooo fast. I've uninstalled Firefox, and Chrome... Now on to find the camera from 4.2
Ok, I can't get the 4.2 camera working to save my life. It FCes everytime I try it. The gallery is working fine. Used the files from here:

thanks for the suggestion, i will try this and report back
If you have a framework mod (forgot it's name)than that's what's causing instantaneous to force close

it's weird, the app wants to sometimes work...it seems that when it begins to load it freezes up and fc's
sometimes when its loading up my instagram "wall" and other times when it's loading the effects for a picture. If i got to search for tags it sometimes freezes up and then sometimes it doesnt.

i do have xposed installed...didint realize that was a framework mod, but ive had that for weeks too.
try disabling it but not rebooting your phone, that way you keep your mods and instagram works
There's a zip fix for that. I have XposedMultiDPI running with no problems now. The filename is XposedBridge2.0rc2.zip somewhere in original thread and I just flashed that in Recovery. I also installed the newer XposedAppSetting. Good luck.

I did some searching with no return on results for my particular issue. I am currenty running Optimus v4.4 Deodexed and previously ran Lifeless for a long time. The issue I am experience is that the stock gallery app opens then disappears. It doesn't force close but I am unable to keep it "maximized" for a lack of better term.
Anyone experience this also? Any help would be appreciated!
I rather not install alternative gallery apps (actually using one currently and I'm not a fan).
