I am getting this error on my two week old prime 64. I have a 32GB micro SD card, but I get this message irregardless of whether it is installed or not. I have done a hard reset with and without the Micro SD and still get this message.
Any suggestions short of a factory reset and reload everything?
Thanks in advance!

when do you get the error? what are you doing when it happens?
It use to be shortly after start-up. Tonight I am getting it more often. It might be because I am running a rescan media app that never completes. It doesn't make a difference if I pull out my microSD card either.
It is probably related to the fact that neither Music or Winamp will see any new songs that I've transferred to the tablet. I've copied these tunes to both internal and external memory.

You probably need to disable sync of some google service until you find which one does it, then clear that appsdata. I've only had it with bookmark sync in the stock browser on the OG Transformer but that has a different service name then what you have.

I think I fixed it last night ...
I uninstalled 6 applications, and, after a couple of days will add them back one by one, until it fails again.
The apps were as follows:
Denso
Dolphin Browser HD
SyncLite ML
Veetle
i.TV, and
Google Currents
I will try to remember to post if this fails again....
You might nit have a problem on reinstall if it was, unless you restore data from backup or sth instead of a fresh setup.

SAME here..usually right after a fresh reboot. Seemed to start after last update or ICS update.

I only have 2 you have Google currents and dolphin HD. I been got rid of Google currents because it runs in background too much and is one of biggest battery drainers according to my better battery stats log.
I still have the error message after ggogle currents uninstalled. Now if you say you got it to go away, then that leaves only dolphin HD left for me to get rid of. Since these the only 2 apps you listed as similar and has seemed to get rid of problem after you ubinstalled them.
Ill get rid of dolphin and report back here if it fixes the issue or not. I doubt it would be the browser as its never running in the background. Can't hurt to try though. I have too many browsers anyways..lol
It didn't work. I deleted both dolphin and Google currents n it still occurs. Seems to occur more if you go to gallery or watching a video or stream. I think it's just another bug in ICS like the failed to download album list one. Doesn't seem to effect anything or make anything crash.
i got the same problem. even after today's recent firmware update (02/08): 9.4.2.13
I'm starting to have this problem come up as well.... Unsure if it's affecting anything noticeable or if it's more of an annoyance. I also have google currents installed but it happens sporadically. I noticed this happened shortly after bootup just now.

been happening since the upgrade
This has been happening way before upgrade, as its documented here already. This seems to occur alot if you doing something with gallery or any media players. But sometimes just comes out the blue. It is very annoying. I think its just some sort of background app or process crashing and therefore throws up the error. I wonder if this is linked in anyways to Asus task manager. That widget likes to crash at times or stop working. The error came when ICS was first introduced or the update right before that one.
I fixed this problem by doing this:
Settings -> Apps -> All -> Media Storage
Force stop and clear data.
I get this error constantly
I will try your suggestion when I get home.
I am pretty sure the culprit is Google Currents. Try removing this.

Possible Culprit: Titanium Backup

I noticed this almost immediately after flashing a rom and subsiquently restoring Titanium Backup.zip via CWM. Before I ran TB, i had downloaded some apps from Google Play, which means i had to manually log into google first. This must have caused the "Andriod ID" to be set with Google Play, because after downloading apps, I opened TB and the popup message to restore my previous "Android ID" came up, and I clicked to revert to my previous "Android ID". This rebooted my phone and immediatly after booting up, i got this message. I also got the "google play error 921" that prevented me from downloading or updating any apps from Google Play.
To fix this, i just did a factory reset, wiped cache partition and dalvik, then rebooted and started fresh. I logged into Google manully, and downloaded a fresh copy of TB from Google Play. This time when TB asked me if I wanted to revert to the previous "Android ID", I clicked on keep existing. Both issues are gone now, and I am able to download and update all of my apps.
Hopefully this helps some of you. If so, click the "Thanks".

It seems that many, if not all, of the apps I try to 'update' in the Android market generates an error on the Prime that says 'Application already exists' in the menu bar with an ! icon. This is annoying... I can uninstall / reinstall the app to get an update, but whenever I just click update in the Market, I get this error a lot.
Of course the application already exists! I'm updating it. Stupid Prime.
Does anyone have a fix for this? I searched the forum and didn't see anyone mention this annoying problem.
Are you getting system reboots?
Rumour has it the system reboots are a result of a failure while optimizing apps for ICS during the upgrade process.
Sounds like perhaps your OSs view of your apps is a little messed up...

No. Actually, I seem to have the least amount of problems with the Prime compared to most on the forum. Really, this issue and the weak GPS signal are the only ones I've had. Well, and the decreased wifi bandwidth when streaming bluetooth. But everything else generally runs smooth.
Two apps for example that I had this issue with... updating Google Voice and eTrade. Both of those for sure gave me the error that the app already existed. Uninstalling and reinstalling worked fine to grab the latest version.
Actually, I take that back. Sometimes when I do an uninstall / reinstall, it still says there is an update available.

Unfortunately I have the same issue. I haven't found a good way to work around it yet. As you have found sometimes uninstalling works and sometimes not.
Sometimes uninstalling it, rebooting the Prime, then reinstalling it works. Although, that's still sometimes as far as I can tell.
I've just started getting this issue when trying to update Officesuite Pro, first time it's happened.
Oddly enough when first typing this reply my Prime locked up and rebooted itself, which it's not done before.
Never had a reboot under ICS, at least not yet. But quite frequently have this problem. So I guess there is no correlation between the two.
The only anomalies that I experience are Skype or Talk video calls that suddenly die. No FC or any other message, Skype or Talk just exit.
I bet these types of problems will go away with a root and a custom rom in the future. Wish Asus would release the bootloader unlocking tool already!

Yeah... right now for me, it's Google Voice. And the worst part is, you can't get it to stop saying it's updating the market app even though it stops almost immediately. Annoying.
I get this sometimes, but I press update again and it updates fine

Random reboot is a normal way of life with android. A reboot here or there is nothing to worry about. Most of the time its from a bad app you installed. Now if you rebooting several times a day, then that's a problem. Its actually good to reboot or at least power down n then back on device every once in a while. It'll give device a fresh start on RAM and clear any mishaps that may have or could occur. Same deal with Ipad. They recommend rebooting every now n then for a fresh start and to have more ram available for use.
I haven't had this happen on my Prime, but I was having this same issue today on my Sprint GSII.
Not sure if this is a work around, but it just worked for me. Instead of updating the app from the 'my apps' section of the market, I went to the page in the market with the full app description. I clicked the update link there and it installed fine. I'll have to test this theory out more.
i too am facing similar probs. while updating WhatsApp and Skype too it shows that the application is already existing.
pls. note. both WhatsApp and Skype are under different Accounts
can this cause a prob that previously i would have installed it by 1 account and later on by another account when i changed the phone ?
pls. guide.
Gmail has been freezing and forceclosing on me near constantly for the last week or so. Has anyone else had this issue?
Sent from my Transformer Prime TF201 using Tapatalk
Was having the same issue after OTA.14 . I think it's its caused by a memory problem as it happens either when it was used a long time or had a lot of programs open. Restart seemed to fix it temporally. Maybe the new OTA .15 will fix it.

I have the same problem.
Have you tried clearing the app cache then rebooting? Always the first step when troubleshooting an app.
Same problem here in ATP WW C1 with OTA .15 before OTA .14 this doesn't happen.
Clearing cache and app data doens't help.
A reboot solves the problem temporaly but if I play a game that need lots of resources like gameloft's games, shadowgun, etc. the gmail app has again this problem.
I also have the same problem with google maps: freezing and closing with or without FC.
Gmail force closes
I can confirm this issue with Gmail. I never had any problems with gmail before the update, now it forcecloses and sometimes I receive a blank white screen for about 15 seconds when first opening.
I was having an issue with gmail freezing and closing. I cleared cache, and app data then did a cold boot. Haven't had a problem with is since.
I have also experienced gmail freezing since ota .15. Restarting the prime helps.

Useful information. That's a good idea; I'll check out my catlog too -- my gmail has been unsuable for quite some time now, and I definitely suspect is a disk I/O or memory issue.
I can't get into my Gmail app any more. It just closes as soon as I click on anything. Really annoying, been this way for months
A temporary workaround is to use Gmail as an exchange mail server, use server name m.google.com and it will do push email.

Glad I'm not the only one. I just found this same error after gmail closes. Strange since I appear to have a ton of memory available. Almost seems like the ATP won't use all available resources. I have a lot of stuff running and seem lately to have been getting system reboots from it even.
UPDATE:
Just found this tidbit:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9412662/how-can-fonts-cause-opengl-out-of-memory-error
This might explain some of my behavior at least, as I'm using a bunch of Simple Text Widgets on my home screens (17 currently across 4 screens). Not word on a fix though. I really like the look so I'm quite bummed.
Also this one:
http://forums.developer.nvidia.com/devforum/discussion/6631/tegra-2-3-ics-driver-memory-leak/p1
I have the exact same issue. This pisses me off big time because it means I need to complete reboot the tablet to solve this. I am running the latest ASUS update as of this date (ICS 4.0.3) for the Transformer Prime.
The following error gets repeated over and over:
[ 06-15 14:56:33.460 563:0x233 D/OpenGLRenderer ]
GL error from OpenGLRenderer: 0x505
[ 06-15 14:56:33.460 563:0x233 E/OpenGLRenderer ]
OpenGLRenderer is out of memory!

Now, from what the previous poster shared, it seems we need to reduce the font size on widgets on the home screen. The question remains, how small do they need to be, when I look at my widgets, I don't even see any font I consider "large".
Did anyone solve this issue at all?
My Gmail was fine pretty. 28 update, but after the update it constantly freezes just after opening it. It's actually quite unusable as it is right now.
Three days ago I started getting a popup error message that states, "Unfortunately, the process android.process.media has stopped working"
I'm not sure what has caused this to start happening and I'm not really sure what it is affecting. I have already been experiencing random reboots, and the videos in YouTube and on websites have always been laggy and experienced forced closes and freezing. So I'm not sure what new thing has happened to make this error message appear.
It has appeared while watching videos, while browsing the net, and while in games and other applications. It has popped up around 5 times a day for the past three days.
Just interested to see if anyone else has had this issue with this error or possibly might know what may be causing this. I have rebooted and done a hard reset but nothing has changed. I guess the last action to do would be a factory reset.
this is common since several updates back. some kind of bug. hasn't seem tl be affecting anything really. just a background app crashing. its been reported n documented.

only with sd card
Hi,
For what its worth I only get this error when I have an SD card plugged in either in the miscro sd slot or the full size sd slot.
When I plug in a micro sd card with assorted media types: films, music, pictures etc. It would regularly give me two of those errors after reboot and then not at all until next reboot.
Thread started to hopefully draw Asus' attention to one of the most annoying issues on the Prime, the "Browser not responding" error that seems to occur on almost any browser. I have turned flash to "on demand" which has helped a bit, but honestly, getting this message every 5-10 minutes is really annoying.
Sign on if you have this issue on your $500 Asus transformer prime too.
OMG this issue is sooo ANNOYING. I love my prime, but the constant pauses make me embarrased to show it to anyone. It looks a lot like hardware fault though, my galaxy s had the same issue and it was due to very slow flash writes(internal hardware, not adobe flash). It had an sd card soldered to the board for its internal memory and bascially any write would block the whole system for a second or two. It was fixed by some internal kernel changes and moving to ext4.
As noted in several other threads...there is a workaround.
In the browser, from the menu -> Settings -> Advanced -> Enable Plug-ins
Make sure it's set to "On demand"
Since changing this setting things for me have been pretty smooth.
I didn't have to do the On demand for the Galaxy S2 as it was perfectly find with it plugs ins on all the time.

I have tried the 'workaround' and can confirm that is not a true workaround. While it does seem to slightly reduce the number of occurrences it does not eliminate the annoying popup altogether. The OP also stated that he has tried this. Who knows, maybe this is something that varies from one device to the next.
Sometimes I wonder if its the bad i/o in combination with the Plus-1 of Nvidia's 4-Plus-1 that makes the browser tank. The slow i/o causes the Plus-1 to come into effect and the transfers slow even more due to reduce cpu speeds.
Factory reset solved this issue for me....Browser would hang and get popup...after reset stock browser loads pages with no hangs. Use Titanium Backup data only!
This happens in a couple applications for me. The browser (doesn't matter which one I use) and Pulse both have this problem. Both constantly give me the "not responding - wait or close" message. This is either a wifi related issue or an overworked ninja core, I don't know which.
I have faith that Asus will fix this with software eventually - along with the "process.android.media has stopped." I just wish they'd get to it a bit faster.

A lot of the evidence shows that it's not a wifi or processor issue -- more likely a memory I/O issue with the writes/reads to memory.
It can happen on my apps without any internet use or wifi and it happens even when I overclock the CPU.

It means when restoring stuff after a hard reset, don't restore the entire app... reinstall the app as normal and then only restore data... the thinking is that a unclean install will reintroduce problems into the OS.
Chiming in just to say
1. I get this error message, often
2. it has gotten worse with the last update
3. there is also a lot of lag in typing as well. Sometimes I can type a word before it shows up and then all of the sudden the browser catches up
I always did a factory reset after a firmware upgrade and manually redownloaded my apps from the play store. The unit was set not to restore any settings stored on google's servers.
Its as clean as it could be but the browser is what it is.
I am thinking of taking a big loss on the unit and switching to the Galaxy note 10.1 if those Exynos 4412 rumors come true.
hmmm, this must be device specific, after resetting mine, wiping, and installing
I very rarely get browser lag with a good wifi connection
"Browser not responding" is not my only issue with the browser. It's laggy when scrolling, and it also use very long time to load websites. Anyone else who has the same issues?

Factory reset cut it down for me but only after i changed plug in to "on demand" that it got rid of it. Maybe the combination of both did the trick.
Edit: placebo. Just happened again. Replicated by going to www.engadget.com full site and as its loading i tried scrolling a few times and the browser locked up. Got the wait pop up afterwards. This is plugin set to on demand.

I install an app or game. Play or use it. Go do something else for 20 minutes to an hour come back expecting to use said app, and its gone. Its not in the launcher or manage apps, and play store acts as if it wasn't yet installed. I can go to market again to install it but that's just bothersome. I'm on an 8gb nook tab running an emmc install of cm10, looks like its the 2012-9-3 acclaim build according to about tab. Other than that I'm not sure which ROM exactly.
Any thoughts would be awesome.

Any thoughts would be awesome.

Is there a "place holder" icon in place of the disappeared app? (home screen and app drawer, either or both) Would appear as a generic android icon.
Also, what apps are disappearing specifically?

When Ext-Sd card auto unmounts (known bug) everything installed on it (because ext-sdcard are default one /sdcard1) is then shown as a green android without their normal icon.
I've been having this issue as well with Business Calendar Pro. It isn't installed to the SDCARD. I haven't had the problem with the latest version of the ROM though.

How's your battery life? Can you compare it to CM7 or stock? Mine was so pathetic I'm back on CM7.

I can't compare it to stock or CM7, though -- I haven't run either stock or CM7 since April or so. It does seem to suck the battery down much faster than Chris' CM10, though. To deal with that, I've been doing a full power-off (long press and select "Power Off") instead of a soft power-off when I know I won't be using the tablet for a while.
Saludos,
Steve

Almost any app. Here's an updated play by play.
Install app. App can be used.
After a while it disappears.
Can reinstall and use again.
Usually disappears again.
If tab is rebooted apps reappear. Icon and all.
If you attempt to open they force close. I don't remember the error message.
This mostly happens on large apps or games.
I'm gonna attempt to update my ROM and see if it still has the same problems.
Updated to the latest cherry picks ROM. I wiped and cleared everything. Same problem. Same symptoms. Any thoughts on causes and possible solutions? Or is this just a bug with the ROM?

I've experienced a similar issue, and it appears to be the result of the SD card getting (forcibly?) unmounted while sleeping. I have no idea how to prevent it other than moving all apps to internal storage if possible. Maybe ensuring that any apps the rely on storing data on the SD card are terminated before sleeping?
FWIW, I've had the same thing happen in the past with the stock BN ROM so it wasn't a huge surprise to me when it happened running CM10.

Okay, so the exact same thing happened that the OP described to me this morning on 27/09. I had moved several apps to the SD card and then when I came back to my Nook about a half-hour later, all those apps showed as Android icons and could not be launched. Rebooting made it possible to launch the apps again and brought back the normal icons.
Update: Perhaps it's coincidence but it seems that whenever I manually disable WiFi before sleeping my Nook (running 27/09 here), then everything is fine. However, if I forget to disable WiFi, then for some reason the SD has a chance to be unmounted while sleeping which requires me to re-install any apps that are installed on the SD card or that depend on the SD card for normal use.
I'm also thinking that maybe it doesn't have anything at all to do with WiFi being enabled, but instead perhaps it's just having apps running that depend on the SD when the unit sleeps (such as XDA premium which I've had to re-install several times over the last couple of days ) .
In all, it seems like a really vague and random issue that occurs and reiterating my previous posts, I've seen the SD card get unmounted using the original ROM so I'm just not sure what the deal is here.
I have a problem,with my tablet. I found that 3 of my favour apps has disappeared from my apps list and tablet . I don,'t uninstalled it. What can I do to recover an install it again.
