For several days my phone app just stops working. I open it and it immediately says "Phone has stopped". I can't answer calls or anything until I "fix" it. I have been uninstalling the update, clearing cache and data and installing the phone .apk. Some times I get "Application not installed" and I have to reboot. After a few tries, it installs and the phone app works again.
Just today, my Google messages app is doing it. I have not tried anything yet to solve it. I don't know what could be causing this. The phone is two weeks old. Only thing I have done to it is install the substratum black theme.
Hmmmm......I just looked in the Playstore and saw that both apps just updated about 30 mins ago. I have a feeling the theme is the problem.

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
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.

Hi. I got CM 11 from TeamCanjica. Ive got some serious issue, because since last week this error started to show at abnormal rate. For example, when I finish my 5 minutes call, I need to close literally 10 "Google Services stopped working" errors. I didnt install anything nor update. It just started to show by itself. I tried googling the solution, but nothing works. I tried to remove Google Services updates, but for some reason it refuses to remove the update. Cleaning Cache also didnt help. Also, this Google Services started to drain my battery faster than anything else. I once even caught it draining battery more than screen. Anyone can help me?

But note this is only an temporary Fix. ROM update is needed or google has to change play services again.

My wife and I both have OP3 and this morning we are seeing the same issue of apps installing but unable to open. Just get the app splash screen and then it closes again. Tried on a number of apps and even using data or WiFi. Still does the same.
We both updated to 3.2.2 the other day and that is the only thing I can think that has changed.
Any ideas?
Android 9. Last night several apps stopped working. So I started deleting recent apps, rebooted, still same problem. Then I started deleting unnecessary apps, rebooted, still same problem. Any known issue that may cause this?
Some apps I try to open, and just get a plain white screen. Others, start to open, then just go back to previous screen. Sometimes, it gives me the error (App name) keeps stopping. App info, Close app, Send feedback.
Well, a coworker came in and told me Android is having a big problem (since last night) with something Google Chrome related. I disabled Chrome (for now), and all seems to be working again.
