So when I go to set a wallpaper from the gallery or google photos it just shows a loading screen forever. Ocassionally it'll crash when I choose to set homescreen wallpaper. I cleared the home and lockscreen cache and data but still no luck except for the crashing and totally resetting my home screen icons and widgets back to stock.
Also in google photos I was getting greyed out thumbnails and a loading screen forever but I think I fixed that by clearing cache and data but why did it happen in the first place? So annoying. Still love the phone though.
I don't know if trying to flash a rom had anything to do with it even though doing so did nothing. Still on stock rom for some reason. So many questions but i'll stop there.
It all seems to be working ok now. wierd. clearing all the data seemed to work just had to wait I guess.

I rooted my r800x almost 2 months ago. Used Doomlords one-click zerg rush. Still have locked bootloader. Anyways, things were just fine for awhile. Even used rom toolbox to change the theme and some notification icons. Other than that my rom is stock. Well randomly whenever I go to the market if would say "device not compatible with this app." Only thing that seemed to fix it was restoring a nandroid backup. That was 2 weeks ago. Now it's doing it again and I haven't made any changes to my system since. Not sure why its doing it again. Even says it on apps that I already had and have been using for ages so i know they are compatible.
Any ideas what's going on or how to fix it?
No one has any ideas? Has this happened before? I can't figure out how to fix it now, shy of factory resetting and re-rooting.
Did you change your screen's density?
I changed it to 230 from 240. So i just tried changing it back to 240 and rebooting upon prompt, still issues. Did another reboot just to see, still issues. Could it be something else I changed? Did a theme change so lockscreen, notifications, volume, etc are blue. Also changed system font and boot animation. I think that's it. Oh wifi scan interval.
When you change screen density, a reboot won't be enough. You need to go into settings, specifically the manage applications section. Select Market, force stop it, then clear data. Load up your market again, and you should be fine.
I tried the force closing and data clearing twice and no luck. Made sure the density is at 240 which is what it normally was. Even changed the system font back to stock. I wish I knew why it's doing this and not resolving itself. Frustrating.
Have you cleared the dalvik cache as well?

Ok well I did the market force close again and wiped data, turned off device for a half hour, turned it on and left it in standby with screen off for a half hour, then opened market and now its fine. Very weird. Should I wipe the dalvik cache anyways?

Nope, (when I change the screen density, I have to force stop market/clear market data, reboot into recovery/clear dalvik cache/reboot before market works again (it's a pain in the butt, so I normally don't do it))
If it works, it's good.

Xperia play rooted
Stock Rom
Only rooted to remove stock games.
Hi, thanks for trying to help, please, anything would make me happy. I'm really desperate for a response.
I'm at the end of my rope. I don't know what else to do, I kind of really need the back camera on my phone and I can't afford to buy a new one.
I'm running an ATT GS3 with Liquid Smooth 4.2.2, correct GAPPS and everything. This incident happened under another ROM, Illusion.
My camera started to slow down and my viewfinder would drop to ~10 FPS when taking a picture. Thought it was weird, didn't think much of it. Couple days later, I can't access it at all. I'll try accessing it through different ways like different camera apps and Snapchat, but it either closes or shows a black screen. My front camera still works, however.
I cleared dalvik, wiped everything down, and rebooted. Nothing. When I open the camera, the functions boot up and I can swipe to show options for a split second, then it's black and I get the message "Unfortunatly, Gallery has stopped.". Then I flashed back to my first Stock Touchwiz backup. Same thing. I tried a different ROM, Liquid Smooth. Same deal.
Otherwise, I've tried clearing the cache, data, force closing, disabling of the gallery app. I've removed the SD card and tried deleting everything displayed in Gallery. Nada. Still get this error.
I've tried researching this and I haven't had any sucess. Please, PLEASE help me. I'm pulling my hair out at this, I don't know how else to beg over the internet. ANYTHING

flash a new completely different stock rom not your back-up, wipe everything again before flashing, after you are done reboot and see if that helps
if it does not go back to samsung stock firmware (use odin) and remember to factory reset the phone before you do it
and am 99% sure that everything is fixed and everything goes back in-order when you go back to stock firmware.........hope that helps
Yellow,
I have a bit of a weird problem. Tried a lot of Google but didn't even really find the same problem..
What happens effects various apps differently, most notably (and annoyin) when browsing.
Uc browser crashes to homescreen, but all tabs are still there when I open it (although entered data is lost because the tabs are loaded from scratch. Total pain, saved this text 10 times so far and it crashed twice already.)
Dolphin closes all tabs but stays open, basically as if it was reopened except with no time delay, all tabs just vanish and thats it. chrome refreshes all tabs but they stay open.
Whatsapp stays open but the keyboard goes away mid writing. Tatanium backup reloads the apps and brings me back to the top. Sygic navigation crashes. All with no error messages. Just to give a few examples.
While not tested I'm sure calling crashes too, so this phone is almost unusable.
I already did a factory reset with twrp and restored a backup from a few month ago that worked perfectly fine, but the issue came back before installing any apps (!).
Rooted 4.1.1 with "blade elite v.1.1".
To me it feels like its just too much happening for the phone so it does weird app refreshes or whatever.
Any help greatly appreciated.... I'm in Malaysia right now with very limited access to computers, so if there's anything I could try on the phone itself...
Thanks a lot in advance!
Hi guys, I never posted here but am trying to find some help. I've had my S4 for quite a while now, and I just factory reset everything because I kept getting a "Unfortunately, the process android.process.acore has stopped." message that wouldn't go away or let me use my phone without an interruption literally every 2 seconds. But before I even had that problem, there were worse problems as well. There are two things that occur frequently:
1. Sometimes, when I tap on an icon, the indicator light shows up (a glow around the icon), but the app itself does not open. Then, if i tap on it repeatedly, nothing happens. I can temporarily fix this problem by opening up the recent/opened apps list (holding home button) and clearing everything (or clicking on that app if it had been opened). Once cleared, I can tap it again and it would open. As you might see, this can get very annoying and troublesome after doing it so many times. Is there anyway I can permanently fix this so that I don't need to keep clearing the open apps list?
2. Sometimes, when I unlock my screen, exit an app, press the home button, or clear the opened app list (as mentioned above), my wallpaper changes to an app. The app is usually random and sometimes is not one that I had opened. For example, the background of my messaging app or Astro File Manager would show up even if I had not recently opened it at all. I can also temporarily fix this by clearing the recent/opened apps list (as mentioned in #1). After clearing this, the wallpaper resets. Is there any way I can fix this permanently as well?
3. Snapchat and VSCO Cam constantly "stop unexpectedly". I don't know if this is a firmware or incompatibility issue, but it usually works fine. This message pops up once in a while and isn't too burdensome, but is still quite annoying.
Thank you for all the help in advance. I am trying to get the most out of my phone and appreciate any help.
Are you running stock or custom and has anything changed since you factory reset?

It's stock right now. Not rooted or anything at all. I didn't really change much of the device internally, only downloaded a couple of apps, but those have been working fine since the beginning. It is running Kit Kat, 4.4.2. I am currently using Nova Launcher as my home screen replacement.
Ever since upgrading to lineage the Facebook app has nothing but problems. It works for a little bit then after a day or so, loads only to a blank screen with the Facebook nav bar. The app doesn't respond and eventually crashes. Haven't found a fix at all and it's not letting me use it. Any idea why?
I've have the same problem, I at this time there isn't a solution
For me is working. Also i get blank screen with white background in other apps. Try to delete data and cache and reboot
