Don't know if anyone else is having this problem but it seems like my apps are constantly refreshing. While I'm in them. It's becoming a real annoyance and I can't figure out why. I'm unrooter, ATT and running TWRP. I've tried restarting and clearing the cache. I don't know how to really explain what's happening but a couple of examples are:
I was in kik. Typing a message, keyboard closes and app goes back to conversations page. Kept doing it, same in snapchat or in chrome page keeps refreshing. Same thing as when i was using the android central app. It just kept refreshing. I know android system webview or whatever it's called was causing some issues so I uninstalled updates on that but it didn't help.
Anyone have any suggestions.
It seems to be slightly worse on wifi. Don't know if that helps at all
Disregard, troubleshot it to ****ty internet connection.

My Nexus 7 2013 or FHD or whatever has been working great since day one. I was just now listing to some music, and put it on pause to speak with a co-worker. I just came back to my desk with the Nexus boot up logo showing. It took a very long time (3-5 minutes) for it to finish booting up.
After unlocking the tablet I'm greeted with "Google Play Services stopped working." Instead of loading NovaLauncher right away it it asks me if I want to launch the default launcher or NovaLauncher. Selecting Nova greets me with the default NovaLauncher layout--all of my icons and folders have been lost to the default. And I no longer have a PIN set or anything.
Poking around further it seems several other things have lost data. Swiftkey wants me to re-download the English layout and complete setup. All of the stock system apps want updates. And I keep getting pop ups saying Google Play Services has crashed.
What's really odd is when I want to bring this up on another forum someone else posted a very similar experience:
The Nexus 7 is great but my experience was short lived.
I don't know if it was a bad tablet or bad encryption but something seriously broke. I wanted to add my company email to my tablet and part of that process involves enabling encryption on my device. Everything was fine and running well, until I plugged it in for the night. At some point my Nexus rebooted and it was at the pre OS screen asking for encryption credentials. I thought that was weird but entered my info. It chugs along fine until it loads my lock screen where I immediately notice it no longer was asking for a PIN and my background changed back to the default. I go to my home screen and noticed my widgets weren't loading and I started getting error messages saying Currents and Play Store stopped responding. I try and access those apps but they go straight to a crash message.
I go ahead and factory reset it and when I tried to reapply the encryption it would go through the motions but it would never encrypt. I thought it was a bad reset and reset it again. Now it just hangs where it says Google and never boots up.
I ended up calling Google Support and I'm getting my Nexus replaced. Has anyone else experienced anything like this before?

I don't have encryption but I do have an exchange account added. There wasn't any remote wipe or anything. I haven't tried a factory reset yet but we'll see if I have the same issues the other person was having.
It's a little concerning to see someone else have almost the exact same thing happen. Makes me worried there's some defective memory out there. Has anyone else heard of this happening?
I've had some really strange experiences the last couple of days with my N7 as well. Bear with me as i try to explain.
I picked up my N7 after work yesterday and noticed the Fandango app had an update waiting. I tapped 'Update', and then went to check something in the Play app settings, and noticed the version was 4.2.9. When the Fandango app finished updating, i opened it up to check out some showtimes. After that i went back to the Play app, into the settings again, and noticed that the app version had been bumped up to 4.3.1. When i tapped the home button, the N7 locked up, and i couldn't do anything at all. I powered it down and attempted to reboot, but no luck. I could get as far as the boot animation, but no further, no matter how long i let it run, or how many times i attempted to reboot. The only thing that worked was to completely wipe everything via fastboot, reinstall 4.3, and start from scratch. I thought my problems were solved, as everything seemed to work fine once i got everything re-installed and configured again.
Until i came home from work today, that is.
Upon arriving home, i unlocked my N7 and was greeted by several dialog boxes indicating that both the stock calendar app and Currents had crashed. Neither app could be opened, as they'd immediately crash, and the stock launcher would also crash, even though i use Nova Launcher. I thought maybe uninstalling/reinstalling updates for Calendar, would help, but the Play Store would crash immediately and could not be launched. I went into settings>apps and tried uninstalling updates and clearing data for all three apps, but only the Play Store app seemed to benefit from this. Nothing seems to help Calendar or Currents. They won't sync or open, and i've also just noticed that the Gallery immediately force closes when i try to launch that, too. My Google Voice app, which i used last night with no problems whatsoever, had lost all its data and had to be reconfigured from scratch. I'm still going through the rest of my apps one at a time to see if there are problems with any of them, but so far all other Google apps are working properly.
I'm perplexed as to what the problem is. Software issue? Hardware issue? In any case, i'm calling Google Support to ask for a replacement, just to be safe. I'm hoping that the N7 i have now is just a lemon, and not indicative of more widespread problems.
I bought two, one works flawlessly (knock on wood) and the other one **** the bed after three days of use. I am returning it for a new one.

I'm all setup to return this one, and not a moment too soon as it's acting even wonkier now. DashClock force closes, and i'm finding some apps have had their data erased, while others are working normally. Hopefully the replacement works as it's supposed to, because i'll be really annoyed if i have to go through three or four tablets before i get one that works.
I just had almost the exact same issue, opened SoundHound premium and the nexus 7(2103) crashed.
After like 5mins it boots up, with my google account deleted (with it all my paid apps), all the google apps updates and google services crashing.
and above all extremely slow.
I'm now re-registering my account, to see if ir returns to normal.

Did you have an exchange account set up on the Nexus?
After this happened to me I wiped everything (I wanted to unlock the bootloader anyways) and things are going fine. If it happens again I'm going to exchange it.
Heya all,
I have this issue with the stock samsung browser and email apps on my ace 2, running jelly bean, where it sometimes completely freezes up and then closes itself without giving any message about it (as in no message saying "com.android.secbrowser has stopped working" or anything like that.)
This happens incidentally only, but when it does happen for a webpage or e-mail, it will happen for that page or e-mail every time i retry.
I have tried many things and found that in both the email and browser apps this has to do with the downloading of images. Since turning that off in their settings removes the problem for both apps and then manually downloading images will cause the crash again.
Has anyone else got this problem? or does anyone have an idea on how to resolve it?
Perhas any apps/permissions/libs needed to make it work?
Need help on this one, as it's annoying, and I like both apps too much to give up on em and switch to market variants over it.
Suddenly today my facebook camera icon to attachnimages to comments is missing when viewing via Chrome browser, but it's still there in Firefox and request for desktop version.
Anyone got any ideas what's up? They trying to force us to use Thier apps or something screwy?
Do you realize that you speak gibberish in your post? I'd love to help you, but your language is not comprehensible!
I'm also having trouble figuring out what has happened. It seems the camera icon for comments is missing from Facebook when I'm using chrome. Unless I switch to desktop. I've tried reinstalling chrome, clearing data and resetting settings.
Seems it just took a few days not exactly sure I did anything but the icon has reappeared.
Howdy!
I have been generally happy with S22; however, there is one small persistent problem I am facing every day. I use the Gmail app a lot, and every day I write emails and keep them in my draft folder to continue writing/modifying at a later time.
When I access draft versions of my email in my draft folder, my Gmail keeps making my screen freeze or crash. I used to use a Galaxy Note 20 Ultra, and I never had this issue. And to my best, I kept the setup identical between the two phones.
While troubleshooting, I went in the safe mode, and there is no lagging, screen freezing, or crashing occurring with the Gmail app. This probably tells me it's the system components Samsung or I added that is causing this issue.
I'd appreciate it if anyone has an idea as to resolve this issue.
Thanks!

If the issue is not happening in safe mode then that indicates it's likely caused by 3rd party apps or a setting that was set by either you or an app (very likely 3rd party app).
Reproduce the issue or when it happens again, submit error report to samsung members app > get help > error report.
Samsung engineers will be able to look into and help with figuring out what is causing this issue.
My guess is that it's Google's issue.
I had problemas with Deezer, whatsapp and photo editor. All of them freeze and then crash when accessing the same functionality. Reinstalling apps solved the problem. Very strange.

Try to clear Gmail data and cache, uninstall update and then update Gmail again. It works for me with Samsung photo editor
Gmail is among the most popular email services, and people have come to expect a certain level of stability from it. Unfortunately, some bugs have emerged in the Android app that are keeping it from running smoothly for some users. Learn about these problems, and how you can get your Gmail app working again!

I have this persistent problem of apps (mainly browsers) shutting down suddenly without apparent reason. There is no force close dialogue, just the app closes and I find myself on the home screen. Mainly affects browsers like Chrome, Brave, Vivaldi and a couple other apps.
Happening since Autumn last year when I got the device. Did factory reset. Now running Beta 12L, same story. Can't find the culprit. Happened again when I was typing this message in Vivaldi browser. Very frustrating...

I suggest you do use the Flash Tool, enable the wipe and force flash options. During setup (just to test), uncheck "Device Settings" and "Apps". If the crashing was consistent, this should resolve it.
Or you could go to settings, system, users, and create another profile with your google account, don't restore any apps or settings and test it there...
Thank you for your input! I am trying less invasive option first. I have created another user and now testing it. Will update later with the outcome.
