Google Maps FC-ing lately?

Anyone else seeing Google Maps FC a lot lately? It seems to be related to finding my location (either in Latitude or Maps itself). Sometimes the map tiles won't get drawn, other times it just force closes.
Seeing this on mine (GSM) and my GF's VZW version.

Nop but have you tried clearing the app cache?
Galaxy Nexus Stock + Franco m3

YES! this happens with me too lately! dunno why!

SOLVED for me!
Had the same issue, and this worked for me:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1467313

I was experiencing the same thing and chalked it up to a bug so I uninstalled Maps updates and have been refusing to update until a new version comes out.
The fix permissions thing, I feel like that could be risky... I guess I could take a nandroid backup first and then try it.

I am having this problem and I just bought my GSM Nexus from Play Store... Whats wrong with Maps app? Keeps force closing...
STOCK. Not rooted.
Cleared cache and settings in Settings > Apps > Clear.
Still force closing.. What the ??

And the problem continues to this day. I almost wanted to start a new thread, until I stumbled upon this one.
Stock Jellybean JRO03C, rooted, slightly themed (to get rid of gradient background). Maps is at 6.9.2 as shipped with the image, and have not had an update since.
Maps keeps force closing every few hours even when I'm in other apps and have not started Maps myself. FC reports says it's an out of memory exception. This only started after I upgraded to JB; it was fine on all versions of ICS, even when rooted.

I had this issue upgrading from 4.2 to .4 uninstalling the map updates did the trick

Unfortunately I don't have an update I can uninstall.
I have for now restricted it from doing background data and see what happens. Next - block it off using Droidwall; still next - disable it outright...

No one?
DIsabling Maps still doesn't stop it from crashing behind the scenes. :crying:

Sorry this problem is months old. Haven't had it since the update that fixed it.

I have been getting it the past couple days. I cleared my cache and 8 hrs no message. I am on the latest update from the play store. Stock firmware

Scratch that just started happening again

Happening to me since the update during last week. This morning (about 10am GMT 16th nov) another update was available. Installed it with faith, but to no avail sadly. Still happening, with almost every app. Shockingly this shows how far it roots itself into the system doesn't it?

What update are you getting? As far as I know the SM-900T has not received an OTA yet.

Just started happening to me just now, and Google+ won't open at all anymore. Weird. I've been having trouble with Google Play Services acting funny lately, so I assume it's related to the latest update of that (4.0.33). Only other issue I am having, and it isn't really an issue, is that Google Settings app icon keeps turning grey instead of green. Seems to work fine though.

I just updated to a newer version of Google + via the play store. I am no longer having this issue now.

The version I have currently is 4.2.3.56698342, released on play store this saturday just gone (16th), and this is the latest version on there. It's still giving major grief. I can't so much as delete a gallery photo, open a map, anything, without a ten second hang, followed by the unfortunately stopped message.

Did you try clearing the cache. I was having this a lot too. Since clearing cache and updating I have not had this issue happen at all for the last few days

Yes tried that a few times. I notice on the play store several of the comments are from s3 users as well as s4, yet a friend of mine with an s3 has had no issues at all.
Very odd.

Note II lags while updating apps from Play Store

Hello Guys,
I have been having this problem from quite some time now (And frankly I don't remember since when).. Whenever my apps are getting updates from the Google Play Store, my mobile becomes painfully slow and lags majorly. It like as if you are using Jellybean on a device meant for Android Eclairs! My system is neither rooted not modified. I had the same problem even on 4.1.2 so it is not the firmware issue. My Note II has Kaspersky antivirus installed which checks every new and updated app. I thought it may be because of this so I uninstalled the app but still no effect Toggling Power Saving Mode On/Off does not make any difference either
I have no idea what is causing it and it is really troublesome.. I have A LOTT of apps and sometimes it updates almost 10 12 apps in a go which is really irritating with the lag!!
Have have chosen any option that is causing this?? Or any app??
Please help me with this
Cheers!

I have the same issue and I thought it started with update to Android 4.3, but it is probably due to update of Play Store application, now that you say you also had this problem on 4.1.2... Everything is smooth (ROM) except when I'm updating apps, it freezes so much I'm unable to do anything and I remember I used to run "update all" and then go back to Launcher and did other things while update run in the back... now it is slowing down the system... I wondered if it is a problem with XPrivacy module, but probably not...

Has anybody got any help on this?

Google has stopped

"Google has stopped" messages are driving me mad, had it for quite a while and assumed a fix would roll out as I report it every time.
Have tried Force Stop and clear cache and data on every Google app I can find, including Chrome.
One of the solutions I saw online was a factory reset, but rather try everything else first.
Anyone had the same and resolved it without a factory reset?
Redmi Note 5 Pro, not rooted, running Android 8.1 and Miui 9.6
Tia.

Same phone same issue, just drive 200 miles with the pop up coming up every 15 minutes on sat Nov, very annoying!
Also noticed "ok Google" isn't working via voice command anymore

Yep, can overlook pop-ups while it's in my hands, but car cradle and Waze is a real ball ache.
I don't use Ok Google.
What have you tried to fix it?

Only reboot and quick Google search so far, kids are keeping me busy atm. If you find fix please let me know though!
Fwiw was working fine the other day and nothing major had been updated, infact the only updates were Google drive and calender two days ago so not sure what's caused it.

Same issue here after updating to MIUI 9.6

I've been having the exact same error ever since I updated to Android Oreo a few days ago but on a Redmi 5 Plus device :/

same issue
only i haven't done any update as I was running on mobile data only. reported to miui but they want additional information because they cannot reproduce the issue

Excluding Google app from battery saving should solve this issue, at least for me it worked!

Hi, which Google app exactly, half my problem is I don't know which "Google app has stopped", what needs to be changed?

Google voice assistant, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox&hl=en
Just exclude from battery saving.

I don't use that app and my Battery Saving mode is off above 60%.
Just got another Google has stopped as I type and charge on 96%, so I don't know whats causing this.

Uninstall the updates to Google app. Something is causing this, I was getting this on Pixel Experience 8.1 as well, until I rolled back to prior version. Same for Android Messages, screen would just flicker black and would not open app properly until i rolled back to previous app version.

Thanks. Bro It works for me a simple updale

Apps Crashing and Unusable

Ok so over the past 2 days I've started having problems with app closing as soon as they're opened. The first app was the play store, anytime I tried to update my apps or tap on an app in the app store to look at the app it would close. Then it just stopped opening altogether. The second app was Instagram yesterday, it would crash as soon as I tried to open it. Now this morning Photos is doing the same thing. All three app started working after either uninstalling and reinstalling in the case of Instagram or returning to the original version shipped with the phone in the case of the play store and photos. I was able to do that by going to each app in the settings, disabling then so they downgraded and them enabling them again. I've have updated the photos app to the newest version and it's working again. My phone is stock rooted with the stock kernel. I don't have TWRP installed either. I do have the Swift black substatum them installed and am wondering if that could be causing the issue, however it's not applied to Instagram so I'm not sure that's the problem. Has anyone else had this issue and do you know what's causing it? I have not been connected to WiFi at all when this has happened and my cellular connection is good.

When using Substratum if you update an app it will usually cause issues since the theme is not for the newer version of the app. You need to disable the theme for those apps to get them working again or update the theme and apply it to the apps that aren't working properly. You may find that the theme isn't updated yet for some apps so you'll have to leave those stock after disabling the theme for them.

That makes since for the play store and photos. Would that also cause Instagram to crash even though the theme isn't applied to it?
