[Q] Entire device force closes - G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm Sorry if this doesn't warrant a new thread but I honestly have no idea what to do.
I am running the latest stock program, and have rooted with z4root because I wanted to try a few of the nifty little tricks on this website.
all was running smoothly until one time, I turned the device on and needed to put it into airplane mode asap (because obviously I was on an airplane and apparently they frown on that sort of thing) so I held the power button to try and access the menu with the airplane/sleep/turn off buttons (sorry about the lack of technical vocabulary, I'm fairly new to this whole side of computers) and the device just switched off again. Perhaps I was a wee bit too liberal with the power button, I dont know. Anyway, when I tried to turn the device back on, an error message appears claiming (with some variation) "the application K9 (process com.google.process.gapps) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again." after I select force close on the first of these notifications, a notification for every app i have downloaded (all from handango or whatever the g tablet market is) comes up. I force close them all and then another comes up saying "the application google services framework )process com.google.process.gapps) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again." I try force close and it comes up again and again and again.
I have attempted to clear the cache etc. as suggested in various fixes on the forums, but as it doesnt actually turn on (the error messages and force close loop happens just after the TnT loading) I cant access the g tab in anyway via another computer as it doesnt even recognise that there is something plugged in to it.
Any help would be more than appreciated.

anyone seen this FC before?

the process android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly
it keeps FCing and restarting on its own, make the phone un-usable because everytime i try to press a button, it will freeze, put up this FC, and when i click "force close" it will close what i was trying to open, and the cycle starts over again
i'm stock with the new JI6 update via KIES mini, had no problems for 3 days, and last night the phone ran out of batteries while i was out of the house and when i got back, i plugged it in, turned it on and i got this FC as the phone was doing the start-up media scan thing.
it will show this FC everytime i reboot as well
under settings -> manage applications -> running services there is a service called 'contacts storage' which is governed by android.process.acore
that's the only other clue i could dig out
*edit* mine doesn't seem to have anything to do with facebook, however, i can't access my contacts as everytime i try, this FC will force me out of the contacts screen
I've seen them a lot of times. When I get them, I just re-flash a new ROM onto my phone. It usually happens when I do something stupid to my phone.
i didnt do anything to it! everything was working, even after i updated to JI6 ... nothing was broken till it ran out juice yesturday.
I'll get this when I do a Titanium restore and restore the system data by mistake.
This should be in Q&A not development.
Also, try clearing your caches in Clockwork Recovery

[Q] Cannot Even Get past The Setup Screen!

So turned on my new Gtablet this morning, after leaving to charge overnight. Booted up - with no welcome setup screen - set up wifi OK and got the message to update to 3558.
Started that off, it seemed to run OK; after about 5 minutes I briefly tapped the power on button, as the screen had gone dark, and got the message that read something like, application android media.com has stopped unexpectedly (sorry I didn't write it down) and forced closed. The download didn't proceed any further so after another 10 minutes so I cancelled it.
Powered down and rebooted. The welcome/setup screen now appeared. I accept the licence agreement set the date/time and press next.
Get message: "The application Tablet setup (process com.tapntap.welcome) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.
I have now repeated this about five times with exactly the same results.
I am really at a loss what to do next. NVFlash restore? Format SD card?
EDIT: Fixed by running recovery with the stock 3558 ROM and instructions from here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=842000
Thanks for the post. I was mighty PO'd when my new toy crapped out on the first use.

[Q] Help : process com.android.settings stopped unexpectedly

Hello,
This is really annoying. It is the 5th time it happened to me since i bought my Dell Streak. Using the Power Control widget, i choose the bluetooth, and it shows an error message saying : "Sorry ! The application Settings (process com.android.settings) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again." . The last time i had this, i had to do a factory reset. Somebody on internet had indicated to install the bluetooth widget. Yes, with it i can stop the bluetooth. But as soon as i start it again, the same message will be shown. I tried to reboot, remove the battery, etc... but nothing, still the same problem. Is there any solution for this? I hate to do another factory reset.
I am on 2.2.2, build 15609, rooted, that's it. Help is really appreciated. Thanks in advance

I am having the same issue Even though I did a factory reset. The problem persists!
So please help me ...
some great people out there
Just wanted to respond to this thread and express thanks that there are some great altruistic people out there. My Dell Streak had the same problem of being unable to access settings/wireless. Googling and distilling advice, the way that avoided a nightmare factory reset for me was a combination of Free Power Widget by BK Mobility and APN Backup and Restore by Ritesh Sahu, both free from Android Market. I backed up the APNs then deleted them. I put the Free Power widget on my desktop and was able to deactivate and activate my wifi. I was able to then access settings/wireless again but (obviously no APN settings) so exit and restore the APN settings fron Ritesh' app. And all is right with my mobile world again and a big thank you to the developers of these 2 apps. Now off to Android Market to give them top ratings.
Permission repair often helps with these kinds of issues.
I am using dell streak 2.2.2 with streakdroid 1.9.1
After using it for 3-4 days everything started force closing.
For eg.-
process com.google.process.gapps
process com.android.mms
process com.google.android.gm
process com.cooliris.media
etc etc....
I factory reset my phone nd den tried it again but again the same problem after 2 days..And a lot of other downloaded apps also start force closing. I am fed up of factory resetting my phone again and again.
Thnx..

[Q] Cyanogen mod not connecting to tmobile phone and data networks

Hey forum,
1st question:
I flashed cm7 a few days ago. Just an hour ago, I haven't been able to connect to any phone or data networks. I restarted my phone and now I get a force close message, "the process com.android.phone has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.". When I hit force close, the message comes back 3 seconds later. If tried the press the power button and turn the phone on and off a few times but that hasn't worked so far.
2nd question
I went into cyanogenmod settings>interface>notification power widget>widget buttons, and checked the "toggle2G/3G" option. I checked it out and decided I didn't want it anymore and went to turn it off but it grayed out, making it impossible to uncheck it. Any ideas on how I can make this go away? I have restarted my phone with no luck.
any insight on these questions are greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Phone has suddnely become very unresponsive

I understand if this is too broad a question, but on the off-chance there is at least a broad category of problems anyone could point me to...
I've had a problem with the phone after asking a third party file managing app to look for duplicate files (usually quite a long operation). It failed to complete, and since then nothing has been working on the phone and it keeps restarting. The weird thing is (or at least weird in my experience). It hasn't frozen or crashed. It's just that everything seems to be finding it hard to do anything. It's exactly the same in safe mode.
I turned on some developer tools (CPU indicator and notification for unresponsive apps). I don't really know what the CPU indicator is showing me (having no point of reference), but it spiked very quickly one time to cover almost the whole screen then calmed down to sit about a quarter along, so I'm presuming CPU usage is far from full. The unresponsive app notification is more telling as every minute or so a new app comes up with "... is not responding. Would you like to close it?". Basically everything is not responding.
I also tried checking running apps and cached processes, the third party app is not still running, just the usual set of background Google apps.
I can't do any USB debugging or software repair because "USB connectivity is not responding". I can't uninstall or re-install anything because "Settings is not responding" and "Google Play is not responding". I can't even use certain developer tools because many of those are "...not responding"
I realise this means I'm probably out of options, but before a factory reset (or the bin!) I'd just like to try and understand what could have happened. At least I could possibly avoid it next time.
Just to add - I've just done a Factory Reset. The problem is still there, apps don't respond, I can't uninstall anything, USB connection doesn't respond (or does respond but keeps dropping out) and after a while it will spontaneously restart. How on earth can one operation do this to a phone?
malware?

Start by mentioning your device.

Try to install some app which keep notifying you whenever you get such virus in your handset.

If you have a custom recovery I would suggest you to wipe the system os and install firmware again
You can google search it like
How to install stock firmware on 'your device'
But instead of just solving the problem, I am much more curious in knowing how the problem occurred
Could you please tell me
What was the app's name?
From where did you download the app?
And did you granted root permission to the app?
Hope my post was helpful
