Yes, I saw this on my phone after flashing other ROMs, too.
I think, in my cases, it was caused by changes in the system (apps), which concerned/influenced these apps.
So, I un-installed the "corrupted" apps and re-installed them from the Market.
That was the easiest and fastest way for me.
Maybe there is another way to "repair" those apps by deleting their data and/or wiping their cache. But I have not tried it yet.

The application has stopped unexpectedly please try again!

I`m getting this message with every app i have installed when my phone starts up. The only thing i have done is remove the memory card and this has happened since.
It started last week and i had to wipe my sd card and reinstall everything.
I dont want to have to do this again.
I have a rooted hero with MCR 2.9 with apps2sd.
mind telling us which application? tried to reinstall it?
Just been looking into it a bit more.
The errors i get are with apps that start when the phone boots up.
If i open ANY apps up once the phone has booted up it will give the same error for those too.
Power manager, astro, afirewall, google maps, y5 battery saver, phone tools.
All come up with the errors when it starts.

Yes it works if i reinstall them like i said i had to do last time it did this.
But reinstalling 30+ apps is a pain.
I just really wanted to know why its done this.
i wouldn't know of any other way. this prohably happened because you removed your sdcard while using apps2sd. don't remove it. you can use the usb-cable to copy stuff from/to your sdcard at any time, works fine.
yeah its a good idea to not remove your sdcard when apps2sd is being used.
I am getting this problem with quick office. How can i reinstall this?

[Q] App stuck 'installing' in Market

Hello,
Got the 'apps stuck on installing' problem with the Market on new 2.1 firmware. I've read in other posts that it's possible to fix this by clearing the Market cache and data. However, on the X10 it's only possible to clear the Market cache and this doesn't seem to fix it.
Anyone found another way to fix (because I stupidly uninstalled the 'stuck' apps from the Apps Management settings menu and now I can't reinstall them )?
Generally enjoying 2.1, though (Angry Birds! )
Thanks!
I had this happen last week with a number of apps (all stuck at "Installing") at once. There was no option to cancel, and rebooting didn't help. Eventually, I just re-flashed my firmware (and added JIT to boot).
Knock on wood... so far so good.
errase all data of google, restart. click on market put ur data , must be fix it. thats wut i did
.Sent from my X10a using XDA App

I tried deleting the Google account from within 'Settings->Accounts & Sync' but the X10 told me that other apps were using this account and the only way to remove it was to factory reset the phone. How did you erase all your Google data?

I was really hoping not to have to do that - it's taken a while to get the X10 running something like I want it after the 2.1 update
Download the apk from somewhere else of the thing you installed thats stuck and install it. That restarted the one I accidentally uninstalled while updating it
In my case fixed with reflashing, nothing else was helpful

Have you rooted your X10? If so, make sure ou install and use Titanium Backup. If you keep your backups up-to-date, re-flashing is a minor inconvenience as you can restore (almost) everything to the way it was.
No, I've not rooted it. Generally I just use the phone and apps and don't try to do anything too techy with it. Is it still worth rooting (apart from to use Titanium Backup?)

[Q] Help with Market/Contacts(BAMF 1.7)

Hey guys,
Starting today I have been having a problem with the Market and it saying it doesn't have enough memory to install something. For example the Flash update released today. I try to update and it fails saying it doesn't have enough memory. If I look at free space I have like 2gb free on the phone. I can still download other applications bigger than the update, but it isn't letting me update. I have tried clearing market cache etc. I had the same problem when Fring released an update the day before yesterday. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling and still couldn't/cant get it to even reinstall. Is their anything you guys might recommend?
Also I have been having a problem with the contacts application. I click on a contact and it says contact not found, or something to that effect. It is like it looses all my contacts and a little bit later they work fine(usually after a restart).
Just seems like I am having lots of problems at the moment. Is their any suggestions for an easy fix? Can I just reflash rom only, and if I were to do that would I loose all my applications etc?
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!
Thanks,
Blaine

1. MARKET.....try clearing data/cache in menu/settings/apps/manage apps/all/market then reboot and open Market.....should help
2. The contacts issue is pretty strange...do you sync using Google or a Backup Assistant?
Yes you can reboot recovery, wipe cache and in advanced wipe dalvik cache and reflash the ROM your on...it will rewrite system/ and your apps/data will be left as is
ALSO, try a different ROM....I have personally run all teh Froyo ROMs and currently run BAMF Stripped v1.7 with no issues at all.....

Need help - Insufficient storage available - whatsapp + CyanogenMod

Hi there,
I'm running cyanogenmod 11 on my s3 and I'm having difficulty updating/installing whatsapp. I had whatsapp installed and was told I needed to update the app otherwise it'd stop working. I didn't update in time and sure enough it stopped working. I tried to update the app to continue using it but it said I had insufficient storage available. I've got plenty of storage space on both my SD (internal) and external cards and I've checked every partition and there's lots of space. The issue does not seem to relate to lack of space.
Since then I've tried everything to get it working, first uninstalling the app and reinstalling, deleting everything manually through root explorer, then wiping the cache and davik cache, odexing all my apps and then removing all the odex files through lucky patcher. Nothings worked. Unfortunately it doesn't let me use lucky patcher troubleshoot which I've heard works. Everytime I press on troubleshoot in lucky patcher it says I need to update busybox and install supersu, which I've done plenty of times to no avail.
Please can anyone help out. I'm fearing that I'm going to have to restore everything. If anyone knows how to get the troubleshoot in lucky patcher working or just fix my whatsapp issue all together that'd be great. Thanks!
Can anyone help with this?
Thanks.

Did you do a hard reset?

Not yet. I'm trying to avoid that if possible because I'm currently abroad and away from my computer. A hard reset would put me back onto stock wouldn't it? Is there any other solution out there?

Lenovo S650 updating, questions and issues

So I have quite an amount of questions for my own phone. No one here seems to know how to solve my problems, not even the community in another forum I'm part of.
First of all, I'm using Lenovo S650, Android 4.2.2, with firmware S650_ROW_S305_140820, rooted and removed some system apps.
1. What does S650_ROW_S308_150121 contain? Does it fix graphic issues? I have some apps that show black on parts that shouldn't have. The worst part is everything looks fine at the time of display rotation, pressing Home Button or even a Screenshot. But only for that second. I believe that this update might fix these apps' issues.
Some of the apps that have graphic issues/ won't successfully start: Thomas Was Alone, Mystery Room Layton Brothers, The Sandbox, Monument Valley.
2. I've read that removing System Apps might be the issue. But how do I recover them? Factory Reset? If so, where is this option located?
3. I already tried updating several times but update keeps failing and I already have a backup of the .zip file. But in addition to above, What can Titanium Backup do backup of? Installed apps and saves? Or is there another way to update my firmware without the use of Factory Reset? A Custom Rom?
I hope that someone could help me and fix everything.
