Hmm how long has it been since setting it all up. It might just be all of the google stuff syncing... I had the same thing happen to me! Leave it for 20 minutes or something and see if it works any better
same issue here.. I HATE IT
I doubt it is because of root or rom. I had this issue as wel up until yesterday. It was suddenly fixed. I think because I usually install apps using Astro (or any file explorer), because of hard resetting etc. I thought maybe if i install an app directly from the market, it would fix it. I installed 'msn talk', did a reboot and it's fast now.. I don't know if this was what made it work, but it's working great now.
edit: before that I tried to uninstall a market update and reinstall again. But it was still slow after uninstall, reinstall and cleared caches.
I am on a non rooted device btw.
I`ve rooted 4 devices today and all same to have this issue .. ?
Just out of interest were any of you also missing the "top paid" tab as well. It was missing from my market after rooting as well as the slowdown, then it just appeared about a half hour in. Also did any of you have a similarly slow market when you first got the device. I am on T-mobile and for the first couple of days it was lagging in much the same way as it is now. Maybe it is to do with something new devices do, like the Google sync suggested.
I found that it is best to install all apps manually. Backup programs somehow slow everything down for me! Plus I dont know if the updates are pushed to you because the g market doesnt think you have installed them
My market is so slow but I didnt rooted my device
same issue here...

is that new issue or something to do with android market??? recent update or something? or it is just the desire? Sent from my HTC Desire using the XDA mobile application powered by Tapatalk
It's the same with mine (not rooted) since about 4 days. Have to keep rebooting even to try and install/uninstall anything.

Hmm..
No problems here at all.
Fast market, top paid apps showing.
Rooted with r3 linux cd method.
did not install a2sd.
so far no hiccups at all.
I'm getting this. Rooted, Apps2SD.
Been on a few different ROM's, now back to the original rooted one.
Not all of my restored apps (using Titanium Backup) were showing when I went to Downloads. What I have just done is got Settings - Applications - Manager Apps and cleared the market cache and all the apps seems to have returned. Still very slow though... but maybe getting quicker. Is it a syncing thing?
Anyone that did have the slow down, is it getting quicker now?
I can confirm, clearing the market cache seems to fix this.

Hello,
Yes before i rooted the Market was a dogs arse, Very slow, then after a day or to, it was as fast as i would expect it to be, then i rooted my device, again it was slow for a few days, but is now back to normal.
I think it just needs time to sort its self out, like a alcholic the morning after!!.
The only thing i have used diffrently since i rooted was the cache cleaner app in the market.
I can confirm, clearing the market cache seems to fix this.

how?*

It's not instant, but I had to do it again yesterday. I cleared cache and installed about 30 apps. By that time the market was back up to speed.
what if you have no cache to clear and the problem still persists
try logging into google talk, that works for me
just looking for some options or suggestions
yesterday i've used the netflix app without any problems but after i got out of it and tried to get back into it few hours later it would not "start up" it gets stuck on a white screen for few minutes then after that it'll give me the force close message (ok/wait/report). went into the apps and did clear data/clear cache but that didn't help at all. after that i uninstalled it rebooted then re-installed it but still the same problem. went into recovery wiped dalvic/cache and did zip align but once again no change. i've never had issue w/ netflix up until yesterday
i'm running JBSourcery V2.2 w/ franco's #243 (it was a clean install)
Perhaps the service is down and its crashing because it cannot connect.
Just a thought.

This is happening to me too on a stock galaxy nexus. Reinstalling the app does nothing and it works fine on my iPad
I was having the same issue.
After reinstalling the ROM, checking after reinstalling every app I reinstalled with titanium backup, I found that the actual problem for me was having tasker set to be a device administrator.
Once I turned that off, Netflix fired up as expected.
I can break and fix it at will just toggling that.

as i replied on the other side i'm not using any task killers or a tasker, also under deviced admin only two things that are enabled are seekdroid and email (exchange)
I was wrong, it isn't device administrator, it's access in accessibility.
Maybe it isn't exclusive to tasker, but any app given that access.
EDIT:
It is NOT exclusive to tasker. I just gave widget solid the same access and Netflix stayed on the white screen. Once I disabled it, Netflix worked fine.

can't see nothing wrong in the accessibility, i think i might upgrade from JBSourcery V2.2 to JBSourcery V2.3 with a clean install and see what happens. all i can say it sucks because i don't feel like upgrading/setting up everything again

Light Flow Lite was the only thing that was enabled and when i disabled it netflix started to work. when i toggled it back on netflix quit working. it makes no sense that it's causing problems now and it worked in the past (untill yesterday). either way thanks for your help netflix it's back up and running.
hopefully this helps other people that are having problems with the netflix
I have no idea how you put 2 and 2 together to figure that out but you fixed mine! I'm on a Galaxy Nexus using LightFlow myself. I LOVE that app so I don't want to give it up. I called Netflix support and had my issue "escalated to a floor supervisor". Factory reset your phone, that's the only way to fix it. Nice...
You, on the other hand, are a genuis! Thanks for posting the fix!
Wow I really can't believe how this got solved but the accessibility issue was it exactly. Thank you
So I've been fighting with Touchwiz force closing quite often since the JB update. I flashed the full official ROM from Telus, as well as 2 other Telus based ROMS, all suffered from the same problem. The only thread I found pertaining to a similar issue is HERE.
Issue:
Touchwiz force-closing (stopping), when creating folders, or moving icons on the homescreen (like to delete them or move them to another homescreen).
In a nutshell, myself and 2 friends all have GS3s. 2 of us were having the issue, myself (rooted) and my friend (unrooted, completely stock), where as another friend (rooted) was not having the issue.
After much hair pulling and testing (3 different ROMS, using different computers and cables to flash, having my device flashed by my friend who was not having the issue), I came to the conclusion that Touchwiz was force closing ONLY when the App Drawer was in "Alpahbetical List" view type. When it was in a "grid" view type, there were no issues.
I was wondering if anyone else could do some testing and let me know if I'm on the right track with this.
I ask that you change your App menu to "Alphabetical List", and use it normally for a few hours or days, and let me know if you see any instances of Touchwiz force closing. If I see enough response, I'll start looking into how to place a bug report on this.
Thanks.
Did you wipe/factory reset? You should not be having issues like that if you did.I don't see any of that.

I wiped, factory reset, cleared caches, etc several times, as well as trying 3 different ROMS like I said.
The only way I could fix it was to clear data from Touchwiz Home. But the issue would still come back after a few hours.
So you are on JB, and are using "Alphabetical list" without issues??
Did you back up system and maybe restored the data wipe titanium by accident? If you have a clean install with nothing restored yet does it do this? If not install back all your apps one by one widget by widget to see what is causing this. Could be an app compatible issue. I tried to replicate your issue and could not at all.

Essentially a clean install, nothing installed or restored with titanium, and the issue was there. I think the only apps I had installed were Chrome browser, Go SMS (or Handcent, I tried them both because I thought maybe one of them was causing the issue), and Facebook. Other than that, I was on a stock rom (rooted).
I was just able to re-create the issue by doing the following:
1) Switch app list view type to "Alphabetical list".
2) Go to task manager, do a "Clear memory"
3) Go to homescreen, grab an icon, as if to remove it from home screen, and let it go.
Touchwiz force closes (Unfortunately, TouchWiz Home has stopped). As soon as I set it back to "Alpahbetical grid", everything works as it should.
Note: I do have a folder in the shortcut area on the homescreen (bottom, next to the Apps button), not sure if this makes a difference, but it usually starts when a folder is created...
I was able to recreate this problem on 2 Telus devices, and 1 stock Rogers device, all running JB.
Followed that and I still unable to recreate this. I also have a folder on mine in dock for email with Gmail and email in it. I am at&t though. Even though I am not sure if it matters.

Hmmmm, interesting. I was thinking of perhaps trying an AT&T based ROM (all I've tried were Telus based, and was able to recreate the bug on a friends Rogers device as well...). Maybe it's Canadian devices only? I did notice that it doesn't seem to be a very widespread issue. Although there was a thread about it, there were very few responses...
I'll see about flashing an AT&T ROM, but for the moment, its working properly in grid view, so I'm good with that.
Thanks for the input though!
I'm not able to reproduce this issue on my SGH-I747M (Rogers) running stock (not rooted) Android 4.1.1.
If you factory reset/wipe data on the stock ROM, configure the phone without installing any third-party apps from the Play Store (heck, don't even bother signing in with a Google account initially for this one), then set the app drawer to alphabetical list and attempt to reproduce the issue as per your earlier steps does it still occur? Just curious.

Thanks for trying it out.
I was actually able to reproduce it on my friends stock Rogers 4.1.1 OS.
I was able to reproduce it with a minimal install of third-party apps (mentioned in another post, I think I had Chrome, Go SMS and Facebook installed...).
Perhaps I'll give it a try if I flash a new ROM anytime soon. Right now, my device is working well, and I only figured out it was the List option causing me the problem after installing a bunch of apps and customizing. Don't feel like resetting right now just to try to reproduce it, lol.
Tested on Rogers Stock 4.1.1 root injected, no issues at all here.

For the third time yesterday since getting my phone (D855 32GB, from Amazon.de and on Three in the UK), I went to use Dual Window and instead of it opening got a toast message saying "number of apps is not enough to start dual window". My /system/etc/com.lge.spltwindow.xml file is modified to add Tomtom Europe and Music (Tomtom wont work on QHD and can't see to get it working by adjusting res/DPI settings for the app), though that has been working fine.
Restart fails to fix it. Clearing cache or data for "Dual Window" app fails to fix it.
Restoring the original XML file and reboot does not fix it; still get the error message.
First two times I did a factory data reset, which although it did restore the app to a working state, is not ideal as I needed to go through restoring my apps/data/config.
Happened again last night. This time I tried a restore of "Dual Window" data using Titanium Backup then rebooted and that did not fix it.
I then did an app+data restore with Titanium Backup and that did fix it... which is strange as I would not expect the app to be corrupt!
Has anyone else come across this problem?
I have the same problem. Seems to stop working a lot. I am running CloudyG3 1.2 on LG G2 (802). Did you manage to solve or fix this problem? as I have had no luck.
just happened again.
this time went into /system/private-app and ran SplitWindowService.apk
seemed to work OK straight after that went through installing.
not sure what it is updating when running the apk to identify what file/setting is broken.
me too...

Had the same issue, but a restart seems to fix it.. any one figured why this even occurs / permanent fix?
a restart does not fix it for me. next time I notice it's in a broken state I will make a Tibu and compare to a working backup.

So I found the splitwindowservice.apk copied it to internal storage. Deleted the apk from priv-apps. Reboot, move the apk back to priv-app, fix permissions and restart.
Still not working :/

Toggle Dual Window of/on quickly fixed the issue (till next time)
Still getting this issue periodically with 10n. Found a quicker way of fixing the issue than reinstalling the splitwindow APK.
Go in to settings > General > Dual Window, and toggle off/on.
Worked for me just now, when I have been getting the issue since rebooting my phone yesterday (to swap a nearly flat battery for a spare).
Till next time...
I had the same problem with my Lg g3 D855b 16GB
But leaving the phone for a while and try to open the dual window again did fix it
working for me
I had the same error after installing Flex MultiWindows Mod on original 4.4.2 firmware on D855
and after toggling with the Dual Windows, all my newer appz are there too now

Weather app on watch no longer working. I have tried everything to get it working but to no avail. Can anyone help?
Factory reset made the trick for me. I was lazy to do it after the upgrade but it is a must to avoid errors.
A huge must. I even reset my phone because i was havung some trouble like google play app didnt show up on watch along with other apps. Also i will call and it wouldn't be on the watch
