[Q] Phone Keeps Crashing

My xperia play keeps crashing unexpectedly. It locks ups showing what I was looking at for about five seconds then reboots itself. It usually happens when I'm touching the screen whether its typing or scrolling the screen it does seem to matter. I've tried using factory restore but with no other apps than the stock ones it still will crash. The phone crashes about six times a day average. What could be causing this?

Are you overclocking?

No, my bootloader is locked and I am also not rooted.

We're currently rolling out a new software 4.0.2.A.0.62 which will improve the memory management to avoid reboots. Check with PC Companion if you can get it. It not, wait for it. I believe this is what you need. A lot of users have already got it and we're rolling it out for more kits every day. I'm however not able to tell when certain markets or kits will get it.

Camera problem

Hello,
I've bought a note 2 several months ago, that one got broke. So I've bought a new one. After opening booting it up installing some apps setting the phone up. I started the camera app. I instantly get a message Camera error and then the app FC. So I did a hard reset and that also din't fix the problem. Also tried flashing different stock firmware. Anything that I could try to see if it works? Would hate to see that I can send this phone back cause the camera fails to work :S

[Q] Apps Crashing

Hi all. I just got my S6 Edge on the release date and updated it to 5.0.2 via OTA right away. I noticed that a lot of my apps keep crashing and the phone will reset on its on sometimes. Is this a symptom of the memory leak issue? Has anyone else experience this and found a solution? Please chime in, thank you.
*edit*
I have already performed a factory reset and it didn't help.
Also the message is "Unfortunately, (insert app name) has stopped working."

Yep its definately the memory leak problem when pushed hard. Try using smart manager to clean stuff up or all in one toolbox from the playstore. A restart might help, mine has stopped crashing apps now, when setting up and syncing it seems to be worse.
My nexus 9 is the worst thing i ever bought hoping 5.1 will sort things out. As much as i Like lollipop, my 2 plus year old note 8 is smooth as butter on KitKat. That said new Samsung phones always have early software glitches that get sorted in a couple of months

I did all this and it doesn't seem to be working. What is the next step?

I downloaded AAStocks and it keeps crashing on my Galaxy S6 Edge as well. Works great with no crashes though on my older HTC ONE M7
Note: Crashing started after I added stock portfolio to application

UPDATE
I took screenshots of how frequently the apps crashed. I had 5 apps crash back to back within a minute of opening each. I went to a T-Mobile store and showed them the screen shots. They were busy so they didn't bother to ask me to duplicate the problem in front of them. The phone was still within the 14 day warranty period so they replaced it for me. As of now, I am no longer experiencing the issue. Maybe you guys can try making the same claim. Best of luck!

Happy you got a new phone. The problem though was the Google Play Service that for some reason had a hard time auto updating and a lot of apps depends on that.. So in the future try to disable it, uninstall and install it again. That will fix it.
Even when it's not a Google app it will do that. Had the same problem

First time setup - Crash.

Hi, I just received my brand new SW3 and I'm having trouble setting it up.
I link it to my phone (Galaxy S6) and then it brings up the "Downloading" screen on the watch. About 1/10th of the way through it comes up on the screen that "Android Wear has stopped", followed by "Google Play services has stopped".
I've tried resetting the process many times and it happens over and over.
Any advice?
Edit: Downgraded to an earlier version of the Android Wear app, apparently the latest ones don't keep in constant contact with the watch, hence the crash. Went to the version from the 25th February and so far so good, it's got to 50%.

Have you got the latest firmware on the watch? I have a sw3 and s6 combination - it has been difficult with the latest updates, but a new version of play services a few days ago seems to have helped

For anyone interested, the exact wear companion version that can get you past this error is 1.0.5.1724356. It will update device from 4.4.* to 5.0.2. You may get a warning that "something went wrong" while downloading which can be ignored.

I'm having this exact problem. After using the earlier Wear app, should I update it after?

My wife had this same issue with her watch when she was trying to set it up. She has a S5. It kept getting stuck at the same point when downloading. I thought the watch was defective but it was an issue with the phone. I used my phone to setup the watch instead and had no problem. After it finished I connected it back to her phone and she hasn't had any problems since.

android wear has stopped.

hello guys, since some days i am getting this "unfortunately , android wear has stopped working" notification again n gain on my watch i also formatted the watch but it dint help, and solution please???

Aghh. I get this almost every time my watch disconnects from phone when it's too far. The whole watch starts acting weird, notifications popping out of nowhere, everything vibrating and then it all stops. Doesn't happen if I disable bluetooth on my phone manually tho.

Don't know if this is relevant, but on my S7e running the Nougat Beta, I was getting the same constant Android Wear message. Turns out that with my phone resolution set highest was causing it. Went back to FHD and it fixed it.
