Howdy! I'm using mdeejay's 23oct 1.9 froyo 2.2 build at this moment.
Whenever I try to do anything related to calls, people, mail or whatever, I always get the same error:
"Sorry!
The application Mail (processcom.htc.android.mail) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."
I've tried several android builds and always get this same problem. Does anyone know how to get rid of it? A sidenote is that I tried to use HTC Sync to import my data, which it did just fine. For example, when I press "people", I do get to see all my contacts, but then the error pops up and it closes again.
Thanks in advance!
Have tried doing a fresh install?
Meaning, deleting your data.img and letting it create a new one on boot.
Use Titanium backup so you won't have to reinstall your apps one by one (well the paid version is much faster, but the free one is pretty good too).
Thanks, I'll give that a try.
Look to see how to fix this. Very new to this forum, and would love to learn more about this device...I can't open a lot of different apps because of this too. Keyboard function won't work....
I would like to add, that I can not access the settings apk now either. So I can't toggle bluetooth, unload, reload apk.....
Please help, I am now limited what I can do with this....
i saw this related post yesterday ...

Thanks so much, I figured out if you have Titanium Back up(I do.) you can wipe data from the Contacts 2.2.1 and wala....Back to running smooth. I am back to being happy. You were very helpful....Thanks!
I am having the same issue!
I have put TNT lite on about 6 different g tablets now (I am a retail store manager), and yesterday when i got a new one opened for a customer I noticed the error on the original TNT build. I figured it was another beautifully glitchy software piece form Viewsonic, but after installing CWM and TNT lite i am still getting the same problem.

did you follow the link jhalsey gave? that worked for me, i haven't had a fc in since (a couple/few days)
I had this problem a LONG time ago when I went from TnT lite 2.0.2 to 2.2.1, but didn't know about this fix at the time and so just re-flashed and wiped everything, essentially starting afresh...
~mine solved~
my issue wasn't in contacts, but rather it was a issue with my calendar. I cleared it through Titanium Backup and it worked. I just played a guessing game of processes and finally tada! it worked!.
Fantastic assistance and direction as always. Much appreciated!
Cleared by te delete but now won't sync
I cleared by rooting and deleting the contacts DB directory, but now I can't get Exchange contacts to sync at all. Ideas?
FIX : android.process.acore STUCK IN FAIL LOOP
Found on Woot; it worked for me....
Everything was running great for about 24 hours. Now i keep getting "The process android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again." Please help!
OK for those of you that have this problem, I was able to fix it by going to settings > applications > manage applications > all > contacts storage > clear data. Now no more annoying popups. I hope this doesn't become a reoccuring issue.

Just had this problem come up for me today, and it was friggin' annoying!! That easy little "clear data" fixed it. Go figure! haha
In contacts you will sometimes get blank contact information. The contact will say unknown and contain no data. If you delete those you are good. It has become a regular check with every new sync I do on gtab, either after a flash or updating contacts from my phone. If you catch it right away you wont have to wipe all your contacts or get the error message again.
/data/data/com.android.providers.contacts/databases/
I used titanium backup and wiped the three contacts files, then presto back to normal
I have Tmobile and it worked perfect before this. usually had full bars, etc.
after this i dont have anything.. just shows a x(0 bars.). went to apn and tried to fix it and nothing. reinstalled greyblur and nothing. did full wipe and nothing..
about 10 minutes later i got a couple facebook notifications. and saw i had 1 bar! i got excited and then it went back down to x... WTF. went to apn settings and such and it doesnt even show Tmobile network. only i can pick between 2 ATT networks. under signal settings or whatever it says im connected to ATT. I have noo clue what is going on.
Can someone help me please?? Would flashing the stock 1.83 help?? Thanks.
Did you do a backup of /DATA?

no, i did not. if you mean titanium back up then yes. i followed the instructions on briefmobile..
edit: how would that effect networks or whatever it did..?
wooooow.. xD i just pluged my phone into my computer while having motorola software update started and i have full bars now.. this is very weird.
I dont know if i should be happy or worried LOL
I think I'm having a similar issue. The network is working after unlocking but I can't add my Google account, so I'm locked out of the Android Market and Gmail etc..
I am getting the message "Can't establish reliable connection" when I try to add my Google account to the phone.
I have read that the only solution to this is to do a hard reset. If I have unlocked am I safe to do a hard reset?
My other thought was to re-root and restore the Titanium Backup I took before unlocking. Maybe the system settings I saved would fix it? However when I go reboot to Fastboot and try ADB shell it no longer finds my device (USB debugging is enabled and my drivers must be up to date if I rooted three days ago).
If the easiest thing to do is just hard reset I will do that I just need to know whether it is safe after unlocking. I feel like unlocking may have interfered with whatever the phone uses to communicate with servers but I have no clue if that is possible.
Edit: I was able to root again, had not realized ADB will not work from the fastboot screen. fastboot devices showed my phone. I got rooted, side loaded Titanium Backup and BusyBox. Now I am restoring my apps and settings, I will report back if the problem with signing into Google is resolved.

Titanium Backup Restore is done now but I am not out of the water yet. I have all of my applications back and in settings under Accounts I have all of my accounts listed now, but when I launch Android Market or Gmail both applications crash. I tried to add another Gmail account to the phone and when I click Next to begin logging in, I immediately get the "Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server" screen, along with an error dialog saying Gmail has stopped unexpectedly.
I can't tell if this means I got further or am really in the same spot as before
So... can anyone answer the question of whether I am safe to do a hard reset after unlocking and rooting?

The problem I run into when using Titanium Backup, is that it restores the app and the data associated with the app, and the data caused force closes for the market (Play in my case) and other apps. Try clearing the cache for them. (From the home screen > Menu > Manage Applications > "App" > Clear Data)

I've honestly never tried it, but hard-reset appears to be the equivalent to wiping cache (and dalvik) and re-flashing. You might try wiping your cache and dalvik cache and flashing the ROM again. Trying a "factory" restore after modifying the factory data on your phone doesn't seem like it would work.

I did "Clear Data" for Gmail and Market (that is what it is called in my applications list, but the icon says Play).
Gmail is working again! The Market/Play app still gets to a white screen and says "Loading" with the whirly icon then goes away without any information. I see another item in the application list called Google Play Services, should I clear that data as well?

You shouldn't have to. If you're seeing a long loading screen, be patient. If it shows market in one spot and Google Play in another, it's probably trying to update.

I decided to try side-loading the Google Play Store since the market is no longer used. I got the apk from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1836057.
Now it loads but tells me Authentication is Required. Please sign in. I checked the accounts in the menu and my google account is selected, so I'm not sure what the problem is since Gmail is fine with the account now.

Where did you start in all this? Were you on a custom ROM and are now trying to get back to stock? Are you on stock and trying to unlock the bootloader or root? The direction you're going will help determine what you may or may not want to try next.

I am getting help from you in two separate posts it looks like so I will just consolidate to this thread, I apologize for posting all over the place just hoping to knock this out before the weekend is over.
I started with the official Gingerbread ROM from Motorola. I rooted, then unlocked, then rooted again.
My goal is to end up on an ICS ROM but I would like to get a good back up of the stock ROM first, so I want to knock this problem out, back it up, then flash to a custom ROM. You suggested going ahead and flashing the custom rom, I am just worried about making the problem worse by doing that.
The only problem I am noticing is that I cannot get into the Play Store, and I still get the Can't Establish Reliable connection message when trying to add a Google account. However, Gmail is working now but I can't add another account. I have connected to Wifi and I am still having the problem while connected.

If you side-loaded Google Play, try clearing any cache (App Data) for it as well. I don't know why your market/play is acting up if all you did was root > unlock > root. Assuming you have flashed CWM Recovery, you may end up having to get Google Apps (usually called gapps) and installing them as a zip to correct this. If so, here are the steps:
Get them from here or browse them all http://goo-inside.me/gapps/ and get the ones you want.
Load them onto the root directory of the phone's SD Card (not the internal memory).
Reboot into Recovery
Choose the option "Install Zip from SD Card" using the volume keys and the lock button
Scroll down to gapps-gb-tegra-20110118-signed.zip (or whichever one you got if you browsed them) and hit the lock button
Scroll down to whichever one says "Yes" in the midst of all the "No"s (I think that's how they're listed)
Reboot when the install is finished. It shouldn't take more than a minute or two.

I'm going to try the Gapps install, but I am having an issue flashing CWM apparently. I follow the instructions here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1204500 but I am still not seeing Clockwork Mod Recovery. When I reboot, hold volume down, go to Android Recovery and press up, I still see the Android/Triangle/Exclamation point icon. Press volume down and up and see a blue menu with three or 4 options but none are Install from SD, so I am guessing I'm not successfully flashing CWM.
Edit: I did not delete the system/etc/install-recovery.sh file before flashing CWM. I am trying to do that then flash again, but ES File Explorer will not let me delete the file. My super user may need to be updated, but since I can't connect to the store it won't do it on its own.
I resolved the the issue with CWM thanks to Zestar in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1302423&page=16
I just have to reflash every time until I decide to go for the custom rom. I installed GAPPS from CWM Recovery but I am still having the same issue with being told i need to authenticate my account.
I got a ROM backup while in CWM as well so I think at this point I will just flash a custom rom and see where that gets me. Since I got a copy of the rom I should be able to return to this point in time anyways (could be wrong though )
Thanks for your help, I will report back once I have flashed to a new ROM and see what happens.
I didn't get this done before the weekend was up but got time tonight and flashed to the TopSmarts GingerBread ROM (it is really cool to me, a first time custom rom-er). I was able to get set up on e-mail (don't have a Gmail app loaded yet) but Play Store - which I had to side load - is crashing when I try to add an account still.
I flashed the Gapps from above after flashing the new ROM but none of them showed up when the phone booted into the rom for the first time. Do I need to do something other than install from CWM?
Edit: I flashed the Gapps from TopSmarts and rebooted and was able to get Play Store running. It had a minor hiccup and repeated the sign in process a few times but now it is updating my apps. I am happy with the world again, thank you for your help.

Glad you got it working. I've never seen the TopSmarts ROM as I am also very new to the custom ROM world. I flashed CyanogenMod 7 Nightly (I didn't know Nightly versions were beta until after I flashed it), and I love it! It took me a couple of tries to get the gapps working too, but once they worked, I haven't really had a problem since.
guys..need help. am on rooted, darkside rom 2.5. my contacts app craches/ force closes (process com.motorola.contacts has stopped unexpectedly). this occur when i open my facebook contacts. and now cant even open the contacts display settings. tried suggestions like rsd flashing, cleared google plus data ( cant remove gplus, since it comes with rom). i dont know what to do. sorry for posting this. searched similar threads. but i couldnt find a relevant cure. thanks in advance.
