problems with 2.22.531.6 - T-Mobile HTC One (M8)

So, I just got the latest software update from TMobile, and it looks like it broke a few things.
-several of my apps show as "not installed"
-having problems re-installing them from the Play Store
I am gonna clear all cache/data from google stuff and see if that helps, plus I am gonna roll back to dalvik from ART and see if that helps
Complete stock, not rooted, nothing modified
Anyone else having problems since the so called "software improvement" update came out?
thanks
EDIT: Well, rolling it back to Dalvik seems to have fixed those issues, but now the phone is running super hot, 109F, when normally around 85f..
getting ready to call tmobile
2nd EDIT: rolling back to dalvik cooled the phone to normal. Once its settled, I'll try moving back to ART..

Imo art causes lots of unnecessary issues

up to this point, its been perfect for me, but who knows..
After a few reboots, and going back to dalvik, and then back to ART. it seems to be ok for now..

[Q] G2 Apps Start Force Closing

On my G2, I've noticed that previously perfectly working apps will suddenly stop working, giving me a force close error whenever I try to launch them after being installed for a period of time. The only way I've been able to fix it is by uninstalling and then reinstalling the application.
Has this occurred to anyone else? And what should I do to fix this problem?
yes, i had this problem a few days ago...i did a factory reset and everything works fine as of now.
are there any solutions that don't require a wipe?
i had to wipe, and i lost all my mileage records i had entered into the mileage app, and my text messages before i backed them up...
its not too bad when its 2 weeks worth of information... but if this is going to occur often, its not going to be pretty
The two times that happened to me a simple power off/power on worked and they stopped Force Closing. I'm taking it that it didn't work in your situation and the uninstall/reinstall was the only fix?
yea i tried rebooting it several times, but after my latest wipe, nothing bad has happened...
still an issue that should be raised if its been replicated more than once
Ive had this problem with the stock browser and twitter, rebooting seemed to fix it.
Ah, one of those times where fix_permissions would be nice.
I've had to uninstall and re-install several of my apps because they've been force closing.

I've had this happen and it was acting really weird before it did it. It did like a vicious reboot and just about any app other than stock got a force close upon opening. It's gotta be software issues, god I hate stock roms. Damn TMobile and trying to restricting our joy of root.

This is starting to happen to me on my G2 as well now. I have uninstalled the Apps I could (except the preinstalled ones) and still they are force closing on me. I also have Factory Reset the phone several times and it still is happening. I have already exchanged my G2 once at Walmart for a flickering screen but im pretty sure the 14 days are up now with them. At this point I'm sure I have to call Tmobile.
Anyone have any ideas before I call T-Mobile?
I'm not rooted at all just plain stock.
Thanks

[Q] incredibly re-engineered 2.4 keeps crashing

so i've had this for a few weeks now, it was working great up until last week, when random apps just started shutting down...today has been the far worst, i can't do anything on it right now except make calls,txting is down and all apps are randomly shutting down..."sorry application.... has stopped unexpectedly" has popped up for just about everything from internet to good framework to other things i didn't get to jot down in time. this is my first flash, and as i stated went initially well but i would like to get my phone up and running normal again, please help, thanks
You could try "Fixing Permissions" from ROM Manager.. however, if that doesn't work.. I'd consider reflashing the ROM. Are you on the stock kernel as well?
I've had problems like these with 2.4 but mine actually just started boot looping after all the fcs I got... I would just fresh install 2.4
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
so phone was pretty much a paper weight on sunday...decided to reflash ROM, working great now....but i do have to ask
-is there a way to prevent this from happening again
-still need to figure out how to update google maps and facebook, will not install from market...thanks.
I don't know of a way to prevent it from happening but, to update those apps just remove and then re-install from the market
worked thanks a lot....have u ever encountered service issues when going thru these rom changes...like txts not coming thru?
well spoke to soon....phone crashed out on me again...really no idea what's goin on..HELP!!! please thanks
edit: reflashing phone...tried fixing permissions to stop force closings..didn't work
throwing in the towel...have followed all steps to a T and still phone continues to crash and force close EVERYTHING and at this point have lost all my data in the process...giving CM7 a shot, hopefully that goes better
cm7 is practically flawless. no sense you have more space for apps

Nexus 7 freezes

I've had my nexus 7 2013 since they came out got it at best buy, its been preforming flawlessly. Had it rooted and unlocked before kit kat update, the update knocked out root so didnt bother again. This week it started crashing like crazy everything crashes with in a min or two of use, google keyboard, google play services, and then tons of apps, then it either freezes and have to do a hard reboot or reboots itself. And does the same thing over.
I've done a factory reset 3 times. Do you think its toast or is there somethin else I can try? If its toast do I have to ship it off to asus? Or will best buy exchange it?
I hope there's a fix I'm missing :/

If a factory reset can't fix it you probably need to flash the factory images to see if that resolves it.

just did a factory image flash a couple of times and everything is still crashing >:\ anything else I should try?

Nexus 7 2013 Becoming Slow.

Hey,
I got my N7, 16GB WiFi, 1½ month(s) ago, and it was amazing. I was playing games, like Modern Combat 4, at a super smooth frame rate, I was browsing the web at amazings FPS's, just the general UI was so fluid.
The day I got it, I unlocked, flashed a recovery and rooted. I play the game I mentioned above, MC4, a lot and am quite good at it. I though that it would be a good idea to record what I was doing and show the world! (www.youtube.com/user/StealthGamingAndroid if you want to see)
The game was smooth before, just playing, and was still smooth after. What impressed me was that even while recording, it felt like I still had amazing frames.
About a week or so ago, that stopped. I was getting lag, the game was jittery and making the whole thing unplayable, even when not recording. But it wasn't just the game. The whole UI felt, even though it wasn't terrible, sluggish.
I didn't/haven't changed my setup, regarding ROM, Kernel or Processor Speeds since the day I got it. It is running the version of 4.3 it came with out of the box. (My choosing to keep it on that and not update)
The only things I have done regarding root have been using SCR Pro, the recording software, and using Xposed and Gravitybox.
I do not know what is causing this sudden lag, and how I can fix it. A brief search on Google didn't turn up anything that I could relate to. So I present to you my question.
How do I fix this lag?
I do not mind if it means using root, flashing a new ROM or even a new kernel. (Never flashed a different kernel on all 4 of my devices) Over clocking I also haven't done, but if it means removing the lag, I will consider it.
I am extremely grateful for what ever solutions or suggestions you give me, and will happily look into them.
Thank you for your time reading this, and for helping a confused user out.
Faithfully,
-R
Boot into recovery, clear you caches, boot normally, see if that fixed it, if not...boot into safe mode and see if the problem persists, if that fixed it, it's one or more of your apps, you'll have to either flash to stock and reinstall one at a time, when it starts lagging again you've found the app, or remove one at a time and see when it stops, if the problem still occurs in safe mode, backup and flash back to stock and see if it persist, if it does, maybe it's hardware.

That has fixed some of it, but it still feels choppy. (The wiping of the caches, I mean)

I use an app called Clean Maste. You can get it in the Play Store. It's basically like CC Cleaner on the computer (if you don't have it, get it!). Just clear all the stuff in the junk option EXCEPT obsolete APKs. If you know what you're doing, cleaning in Junk Advanced can help too.
Also, be sure to delete all the apps you don't need, and clear your multitasking often.
For a big performance boost. you can overclock your tablet. First, tell us if the other things work above. If not, PM me and I'll be glad to teach you to overclock

Did you try uninstalling Xposed?
When my tablet lags a little, I usually turn it completely off for a couple minutes. This helps me quite a bit.
This may sound dumb or crazy but you got to remember that it's a computer and turning it off once or twice a week will clear the cobwebs.

Totally agree.

One ui 2.5 update is garbage

Just got the new update today morning, it's been a lag fest since then, one to two second pauses when opening apps, pauses when pressing any of the nav buttons, horrible battery drain. It's 2pm now and Im down to 15% already.
First screen shot is from today, second is from yesterday's usage.
Already cleared cache, made no difference.
Which app it is? Your screenshot?
Exactly what I wanted to know as well.

Regarding the topic, for me, personally, this update has been quite good. Everything runs well and I like the small visual clues and changes.

Lucky you, this is the first time an update screwed up my phone. I'll probably have to wipe the phone.
Hey , my phone has been the same, lag and stutters while scrolling and opening apps and stuff. I've cleared cache multiple times , didn't worked. You need to factory reset, it works so smooth now.
Update running great for me, I did optimize apps right after via galaxy labs however.
No lag, battery the same as it was before.
Same here....I will pass update.
My S20+ after update: battery drain, laggy scroll, laggy opening apps....
I tried all day trying to fix it but nothing....I booted in safe mode and not lucky so it is not and installed app.
I tried wipe cache...I tried disable multiple services, wipe cache and data from touch wiz, etc....nothing works.
Phone is totally useless after updated with lag and battery drain...and runs very hot
That updated is a Russian Roulette....beware!!
I will try to flash a clean rom using odin and restore apps.

my opinion , after every big update , device need factory reset and install everything from 0.
that what i did with my s20 ultra after one ui 2.5 update

S20 SD. No problem with the update.
Had the same issue as you. If you're using package disabler, enable all pkgs, clear the cache, restart, and then redisable. Worked for me
I had the same problem but in my case I got it fixed after enabling IMS with Package Disabler because I had these disabled without issues before the update.
After enabling this my S20 Ultra runs good again, so if you have package disabler installed start looking into that.
So definitely no need to reset like others say lol, it is no new Android so why would you just a conflicting going on
Btw I install updates always with first enabling everything and update all disabled ans then installing updates.
After update, running galaxy labs, cache cleaning and then disabling my list with Package Disabler again.
So don't no why IMS packages gave me issues this time....

Hmm interesting, which package disabler are you using btw? The ccswe one stopped working a few months ago.
I was just about to wipe the phone, i restored all the packages and wiped cache and so far so good :good::good::good::good:

!!!EXACTLY!!! The same thing is happening to me. Slow fingerprint unlock (its getting stuck sometimes), Slow in opening the apps, navigating back. I clreared the cache but no use. Its dam frustrating, I feel like Im using heavy software on Galaxy S5 phone
The update has been fine for me, T-mobile s20+ SC. Only thing annoying me is that they took away wallpaper scrolling from 3rd party launchers.
Has anyone had issues with automatic wallpaper apps? I use resplash to auto set a wallpaper every 3 hours. It seems everytime overnight it will switch itself to a default Sam wallpaper for no reason.
I received this update few days ago. but I have no issues, I thing even the time of battery is definitely better. software is responding good and fast.
Just two old bugs are still chasing myphone. The edge lightning ( does not work. ex: Messenger APP) and delay on gMails notifications.
My wireless charger stopped working after the update, no other issues.
Everytime my screen turns off my WiFi gets disconnected and then I turn it on and it connects again. Any ideas?
S20+ on VZW. No issues.
Only thing not working is I can no longer expand notifications from Nest, though not sure if that's a Nest problem or on the phone's end.
I feel it's noticely faster on my S20 Ultra (G988B) and battery may be the same or slightly better. Ovrerall, great update especially the DeX and Pro Video recording update.
