Hey everyone. Whatsapp keeps force closing on me when I try to share an image from the gallery application. From within whatsapp it's fine. But only while sharing from the gallery application.
I wrote Whatsapp over a week ago and as usual they don't answer. So I'm not sure. I doubt it's the phone because I've tried 3 different ROMs and I've had the same issue with all of the roms. So I don't know what to do. It's not that big of a deal, but it is kind of a bother. Sometimes I just get a black screen and I have to back out completely and just go into whatsapp itself to do it.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Solved: Whatsapp wrote me back today and the woman pointed me to the updated version they had on their website which totally fixed my issues! Thanks whatsapp hehe.
It works for me just fine...dont know why you have the issue..
infact i never had this issue in the various stock ROM's i have used in the past
I am on whatsapp version 2.7.431
If you are rooted try fix permissions , ROM manager has it... CWM recovery has it..might be few other ways too...
also check the settings in whatsapp, if the system status is showing working OK...
check if it works when you are on wifi...

I'm not rooted, that's the thing. All the roms have been stock (either an updated or not updated OS). Everything else on my phone works except this! It's strange. If I am not rooted can I still check permissions or anything else that you said? I'm also not interested in rooting. Thanks for the help
SOLVED! See first post

Yes that is how they are set, as they were pre 1.8.2,and they used to work flawlessly. I also tried rebooting, and logging off and back on in both Facebook and Facebook messenger, still nothing
Got the same problem.I stopped getting notifications after the update.Only get them via google mail but super late.Reading the comments on the market it seems that its happening to many people.Guess its a hit and miss thing weather the update works or not.Some people are also uninstalling the update and going back to the previos version untill its fixed.

I went to http://www.apktops.com/ and downloaded v1.8.1, then I placed the apk into my phone via kies air, doesn't really matter in which folder. I went into application management, cleared data and cache (just to be safe), uninstalled facebook. Then I went to the folder where I placed the v1.8.1 apk, clicked on it, and installed it. I haven't received a pm yet, so I can't say yet if it did fix push notifications.
Still not working anymore.... I'm so mad at this....
I went back to 1.7.1...current versions are too buggy.
I tried everything, I
Cleared cache and data for Facebook, Facebook Messenger and Go Facebook Widget
Uninstalled those 3
Reinstalled Facebook only, different versions, v1.8.2, v1.8.1, v1.7.2. Tested with FB only, nothing
Reinstalled the latest Facebook Messenger, still nothing
Reinstalled the latest Go Facebook Widget, still nothing.
I'm out of ideas really...
PS: my mate with GS2 with official XILA2 (android 2.3.6) says that his galaxy's notifications are also dead, but he has them just fine on his Transformer tablet with honeycomb
Facebook app is pretty bad period tbh comparing it to the iphones . Sometimes randomly it would give me nasty wakelocks.
i heard ads are coming to it soon :-/ lol
looks like an iphone but powered by android!!!
Noone else has any idea about how to fix these?....

Have you tried this?
http://www.androidnz.net/2011/11/how-to-enable-push-notifications-in.html
I just uninstalled it all together. will try an older apk.
I must say I got push notifications to work by logging into my facebook on my mums blackberry then logging off. Maybe thats whay I still get the notifications? Wish I could help mate but if you know someone with a blackberry then try the idea posted above
Yes I did that trick with the blackberry emulator like 4 months, ago, and it worked just fine till the last update. I've since tried to revert to an older facebook apk, and redo the blackberry simulator trick, but they still won't get back on
So...refresh interval slould be "never" and notifications "on", ok?
That's my options in facebook aplication. I deleted app data in setting, but still no push working.
If anybody have a solution, please help.
Thank you...
About 2 days ago my galaxy S3 started crashing the app when i would i would copy something to clipboard in that particular app. Happened in messages, contacts, and I'm testing what other apps.
but no1 has figured out a fix yet. I am running go launcher and have a feeling that, that might be the issue. I really don't want to factory reset -_- but if I have to i will. anybody?
if you think that Go luancher maybe the issue, why not just download another launcher from the market and see if it goes away while your running that launcher ---- i would do this first instead of a factory reset.

just tried apex launcher, and even went back into touchwiz and the same problem occurs. ill hold down a message or a contact. press copy message text or whatever else, and the black screens and a FC. Stock browser and stock contacts. I tried copying text from an email, but the interesting thing now is if i go to long press in any composition field i don't get a past option. Just a "clipboard" option and pressing that doesn't do anything
Have you tried Wiping Delvik Cache and fixing permissions in CWM??
I had the same problem and a factory reset sorted it out....try doing it

Hi everyone,
I also had this problem, I found a solution without do a factory reset.
The app in question is TestService.
First you have to clean the directory /data/clipboard, delete everything in it with root explorer. After that, go to manage applications and find the app TestService, uninstall the updates.
After a reboot, copy/paste should work again.

Try this before you do your factory reset, seems to have helped others with the same problem.

What did you do? Having the same problem since last week. I hope you can help.
It will crash whatever you try to copy from. The factory reset was the only thing that fixed mine seeing as I didn't want to root my S III immediately.

read the link, there's a fix in that forum for rooted users
same problem on tab

Same thing happening to me on my samsung galaxy tab. Started two days ago, as well. Samsung tech support told me to reset to factory. I don't want to, I have too many apps, picture, videos etc on my tab. BUMMED I read about stopping testservice. Did that, still no joy. Said to clear data/clipboard folder. I checked, and NO clipboard folder can be found in my data folder.
Hi im using the xtrsense 5.0 ROM, i'm not able to get on my fb app (version 1.9.6), it cuts off and shows me:
-------------------------------------------
Connection lost: tap to retry
-------------------------------------------
when i log into facebook from the phones browser it shows a security warning that says:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There are problems with the security certificate for this site.
The name of the site does not match the name on the certificate.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How can i fix this problem ? I tried a GB Rom and it doesn't give me this issue, i don't want to use the GB rom either cos its not as smooth running as the sense rom and also i like my trackball notifications.
Any ideas guys? I tried uninstalling and re installing, no luck. Any help is appreciated. Thank you.
I just tried on xtrSENSE; it took a while to refresh, and I did get one "tap to retry" message, but it did finally load.
You can try uninstalling and reinstalling the app, or try the app Friendcaster and see if that works (though it does have ads...)

Thanks for the reply Doogald, Its just weird, i tried uninstalling and reinstalling, even tried clearing the dalvik, and wiping the data and reinstalling the xtrSENSE zip but i still have the same issue. Not sure whats going on. I'm not a fan of the friendcaster app, so i ended up installing Nonsensikal_v161_vanilla Froyo. Its working now, but i miss the whole Sense look. Also how can i get the trackball LED notifications to work?

My dusty recollection is that there is a way. I'm traveling at the moment but will be back home this weekend. If I can dig out the method I'll pass it along.
Thanks for your help, if you can pass that info along that would be great. Happy thanks giving!

First - it's been well over 18 months since I tried Nonsensikal - but what happens when you go to settings/cyanogen settings/user interface/led notifications. Is that one of the settings? Can you change some of them to color white to see if that activates trackball notifications?

Thanks that worked, i ended up flashing a gingerbread ROM onto it, and went into the user interface settings for LED notifications, changing it to white did activate the trackball Thanks again!

Awesome. Well, if that didn't work I was going to suggest a Gingerbread ROM next.
I have looked at all the other threads and they didn't help me, my problem is that the stock messaging app crashes every time i start it, meaning, i cant do anything with messages. It started today when last night it was working. Im running stock rom, kernel, everything is unchanged, unrooted and using Nova launcher. The only thing i did today was Install BBS and disabled some useless Samsung apps like Joyn and such, but nothing mayor.
i tried clearing the data and force closing it, restarting, taking battery out, when i place the widget for messaging the app itself crashes, the widget stays and i see my threads, but when i open them, it crashes again...so honestly, i have no idea whats going on.
Thank you!!
!!EDIT: The messaging app doesnt crash anymore (no idea why it stopped crashing) but! I cannot send messages, it tells me always "message failed" also with other apps like GoSMS and HandSent, I cannot send messages. I tried going to /system/app and trying to install again the stock apks, but nothing, It tells me that Application Installation failed Rooted my phone just now, and still doesnt help.

what version of android are you using ? if it is based on samsung 4.2.1 leaked rom, you need to wipe data from CWM to use messaging app :good:
What happens if you go to call logs and swipe from right to left to send a message and then press the back button (should take you to the messages window)?

Im running 4.1.2. Aparently the messaging app works again now, I installed GoSMS and made it default. then i went back to the messaging app and it opens, but if i send a message it says "message failed" i retry, and then it crashes. However, with GoSMS, i sent an SMS to myself, and it seems to work.

I tried to doing that, I get to the message screen, but when replying it doesnt send the message, and crashes when I press "retry" however, with GoSMS it seems to work. Will ask other people today to send me an SMS and see, but an SMS to myself works with GoSMS but not with stock messaging

believe it or not, somehow it works again...just on its own. I found on another forum and doing a Delvick cache clean up with Titanium backup would work! if anyone has a problem like this, that can be suggested. Other than that..I honestly dont know what just happened.
Thank you all for the help! I hope it doesnt come back again
