problems with force closing apps

i started getting this message 3 weeks ago. it just started out of nowhere. whenever i started my phone i got all my apps force closing. now it seems to be happening to me every time i restart or turn off my phone. i did have a nandroid backup from 1 month ago but it also gets the force closing error after it restarts.
i have tried fixing permissions from CMW but this dows nothing. i tried a few other apps to try fix them (appextract, rom manager) but non of these helped.
i have a samsung galaxy ace 2 (XXLD8) on three IE network. its running android 2.3.6. rooted with CMW.
the only other option i have left would be to flash the firmware back onto the device but would anyone have an option that i could try before i do that?
thanks

Could you explain briefly by mentioning the processes which force close and also did you flash and custom rom??

when istart up the phone it loads fine just until the samsung screen which hangs for about 1 min. when it does come on i put in my sim password. then after that i get messages from pretty much every app telling me it has crashed and i have to force close it or report it. no i have the stock rom i got with my phon (three ireland, unlocked) it has been rooted and has cmw 5 on it.

Did this all happen after flashing root access?? Maybe you used bad root file??
Did you flash stock rom through odin
If you flash stock rom(odin) without wipe data, cahe and dalvik, force closes will occur.

no this was the stock rom i got with the phone ie. lik ive never flashed a new rom to it. i used a root method on this to flash it: this one. but i rooted it about 7 months ago its just randomly happening :L. but one of the last apps i installed onto it i remember was this sd booster. i remember it seemed a bit strange and dodgy but i still used it. that wouldnt have anyting got to do with it by any chance?

SD booster app is the culprit behind this. This app have caused may devices to malfunction and sd cards to burn.

Setting -->manage app-->choose the app & clear data
This is my method

[Q] [CM10.1] Device freezes and restarts

Hey everyone!
I installed CM 10.1 and so far I am really happy with it. My devide runs finally smooth again and the overall experience feels great.
BUT sometimes when I open a new app the device freezes.
After a few seconds (around 20-40seconds) the device does a soft reboot (cyanogen circle appears again until the lock screen is visible again).
This "reboot" doesn't fix the problem.
Once it freezed once, it freezes all the time afterwards.
The only fix I have so far is to do a complete reboot of the device or sometimes even wiping the cache.
Then the phone works again until it freezes (which can take sometimes quite long til the first freeze).
After installing CM10.1 over CWM, I installed the gApps and then did a full wipe (Cache + The other thing).
Anyone knows how to get rid of the freezes?
Thanks for your help in advance!

Sometimes I have the same, it is no signal, must reboot to take the signal again. BTW, its the best Rom now!

[Q] Phone freezes right after booting. How to get out of it?

My galaxy grand duos is freezing right after it boots, that is, it boots normally, I can see the lockscreen, but regardless of whether I do anything to the phone or not, it freezes in 5-6 seconds or less. I can manage to enter the password in that time, but it'll still freeze, I think it has something to do with Riptide GP 2, it was the last app installed, and after exiting the app, the phone froze, and when I tried to force reboot using the power button 5 second technique, it froze every time it rebooted in the same way, I was able to access the recovery a few times, but can't get there now. Odin also doesn't recognize the phone. It's like an absolute messed up situation. How to get out of it?
Also, i'm on Paranoid Android 4.1 Beta 2.

Update:
I removed the SD Card, the phone still freezes, but I get about 30 seconds now, idk if it's because of removing it. Uninstalled Riptide GP2 in the mean time. Still dunno what's causing the crash.
Update:
I wiped Dalvik, no use.
Had already wiped cache. Not planning to wipe data. :/
Update:
Wiped data.
Not crashing now.
What the hell just happened?
To prevent this from happening to myself or anyone else in the future, can someone still provide possible solutions?

Just don't use paranoid android.... As it is still in beta so go to sgg android development and you will find many better Rom than PA.

[Q] Strange problem with ROM, CWM not working

Some time ago, I've tried to download some game from android market, but shortly after it finished, "process.google.acore has stopped" appeared. After showing up rapidly a few times, the error forced my phone to shut down.
After rebooting (CM 11 installed with 6.0.4.8 CWM) and unlocking the screen lock, the error showed up again. After dismissing it, I got another "google.process.gapps has stopped" and then "google Keep has stopped". Some seconds later, there was an error notification in the status bar (backup account needed) and another bunch of errors. I was unable to even get to the drawer, because the erorrs were showing one after another instantly. Finally, the phone crashed (I think...) by suddenly displaying cyanogenmod boot screen (it was stuck this way for 3 hours before the battery ran out). I tried rebooting it again a few times, but with the same outcome every time.
My first guess was to re-flash CM11. After full wipe and install from zip (no errors) the phone booted up... right into the system I was using minutes before, with the same wallpaper, pattern lock, theme and problem described above. Then, I tried some solutions found online such as:
1. flashing CWM (no effect; even worse, when I tried flashing older version to see if anything changed, it was still the newest one!)
2. flashing diffrent ROM (liquid-smooth, no effect, still CM11)
3. flashing stock kernel
4. flashing stock ROM
I gave up for two weeks, but today I tried again flashing CM11, but I received status 7 error (liquid-smooth got "some syslinks are missing")
I'm slowly running out of ideas, now I just want my phone to run ANYTHING. Please help me, because I think I tried every solution from XDA and nothing worked.

what happen when you flash stock rom via flashtool?

No effect, CM11 still shows up after boot

Isn't the syslinks problem due to a broken NAND memory? That's what I've gathered from the problems cropping up recently.
The best thing to do is contact the ROM developer.

No call connection until restart and no rom change

I have 2 problems.
First since a month mine and my wife's phone started to have no connection after dialing some number. We both have the same issue. Let's say I hit to call my friend Tony. SO after pressing name I see connection sceen, I see time of conversation, I see bars but no voice. The person I call to hears me. I tried with different people. Same issue on both phones.
After restart calling is normal. Airplane mode off/on doesn't help.
On June 2014 we finally decided to switch roms. So since then we have Cyanogenmod 10.2.0-hercules (4.3.1). It was alright, beside problems with camera, 30% of photos and videos have defects /artefacts.
SO I thought maybe changing rom will help.
I spent whole day on searching stock roms but all files are deleted and i can't find neither one of last 4 versions.
So I thought I will change rom to earlier version of Cyanogemod. It didn't help.
Today I spent few hours too and finally decided to change rom to 4.4.2 | HellKat (first that succesfully wanted to download).
Something went wrong.
I thought I was doing everything right and there are no tricky parts but I guess I forgot to do something or... maybe something is wrong with my phone.
So I'm using TWRP. First I hit "factory reset", then "advanced wipe" and and wiped everything beside sdcard.
Then I installed my new rom, after few seconds, it shows "failed"
So I wiped everything again and tried to restore my backed up rom.
It showed "failed"
SO I wiped everything again and installed my current rom.
It shows "failed".
I started to worry and to think that I just want my old phone back, at least it works... sometimes.
I hit reboot, wipe, and install again my current rom.
Success. (Maybe reboot after wipe is needed? or maybe it's coincidense)
Finally.
I hit reboot and installed gapps.
So I was almost happy that i could go back to where I was.
Not quite...
I started to download my apps.
On second one screen went black.
Actually it powered off.
I tried to turn it on but it was only showing Samsung logo and black screen after that.
I went to TWRP, wipe, install current rom 3 times.
It seems that restart after installing makes phone bad and I can only see black screen without even booting. Ewentually I found out that now I have 60% chance that if I hit reboot I won't be able to come back to my system.
I will have just black screen and the only way to have working phone is install new rom again and not restarting.
Or maybe it's just coincidence but I don't have time to play and spend another hour on wiping, installing rom and the gapps and apps.
I hope you guys see some stupidity or some detail in what i did wrong.
I hope that maybe one of you will actually will be able toi help me with chagning rom the right way or to fix that connection issue.

same, sort of.
I have similar issue. I cant make calls unless i reboot. And it seems when i open an amount of apps, the calls just dont work. I dont know what to do.

Make sure you're on the latest TWRP, earlier versions will not successfully flash newer roms.
As for the voice thing, did you have snapchat installed? It's been reported to occur when you have snapchat installed.

Funny fact, before you wrote we have been testing our phones and found out that it is actually snapchat who makes a problem wih calling. We uninstalled it from botrh phones and 3 days it is ok
I will install new TWRP , hopefully there is newer version.

Just a heads up, Google Hangouts Dialer has the same effect as Snapchat as well.

Is there any way to avoid this? i use snapchat often, and removing it would be a loss :/

There's an older version of Snapchat that works without booking your audio. Search the threads for it. If I come across it anytime soon, I'll return with the link.
