so far my experience with this phone is,
it never hangs. Hang as in it totally freeze, not responding to every thing,
and have to remove battery, or long press power button.
but apps force close happen every now and then.
in gingerbread, if app force close, a pop up appear and i can choose to report or close it. anyway, the point is, i can dismiss it instantly.
after upgrade to ICS, if an app force close,
the phone totally freeze and stop responding for about 10-15 seconds,
i have to wait and stare in despair as my phone stop responding during this duration. finally a pop up appear saying that app has stop responding,
then only i can dismiss that pop up.
this 10-15 seconds freeze happens every single time apps FC.
within 2 days, happens 5 times. once is brower, 3 times is hancent sms, one more time is apex launcher.
generally things are snappier and animations are smoother in ics,
but all these longs temporary freezes during force close are annoying.
i'm using XWLPF firmware download from intratech thread.
is this a common issue in ICS that i have to live with?
or there is a fix for this?

Not a general issue on ICS as far as I know.
Have you already wiped cache partition (and Dalvik cache) in recovery mode?
Maybe you have to do factory reset.

I did wipe dalvic cache.
Oh well, I just wipe cache and dalvic again. Let see how it goes.
You mean I'm the only one facing this?
Have you encounter any force close in ics?
It instantly pops up a force close notification?
Mine freezes awhile only got pop up appear,
That's an ICS feature I assume. Because the other day I saw this video of SGS2 GB vs ICS and this issue appeared there. Although GB starightaway asked, either to close or report.
Did you wipe when you flashed ics. And wipe means wipe code using dialer.
Cache wipe is not a wipe.
ICS freeze when apps FC

Ray,
You are definitely not the only one facing this issue.
Ever since I upgraded my Galaxy Note to stock ICS 4.0.3 I had the exact same issue.
Have you had any luck with a factory wipe.
I was about to do the same, but was wondering whether it made any sense.
Thanks

pretty much every samsung based rom have this issue.
litening, neat, wanam, stock.
i got so frustrated with them.
now i'm using aokp rom. resurrection remix rom.

Hi Ray,
Thanks for the feedback.
I did a full reset some time ago (I mean wiping all internal memory and interal SDcard through use of dialer code).
No help there.
Unfortunately, I am stuck on stock ICS ROM because of stupid Good Entrerprises app I need to have on my phone because of work. This app does not play nice with rooted devices.
May decide to root my note anyway. Flash a custom ROM and then permanently unroot it.... Not looking forward to the hassle though.

This is probably a bug, but it's a really annoying bug and I'm curious if anyone is experiencing the same issue. Periodically if I'm in an app for an extended period of time (surfing Twitter, chatting on Facebook, etc), my phone will vibrate a few time (a short haptic-feedback-like vibration, but 5 or 6 of them in quick succession). Then the app will close and display the dark little "App Successfully Closed" box.
Anyone else having this problem? My guess is that the garbage collector is freeing up memory, but it's freeing up memory that I'm currently using. Super annoying...
That's not a force close, that's just your phone experiencing the "phantom button press." I've never been sure if that was rom related or phone related, considering I've experienced it on a number of different roms. Anyway, try a battery pull, that might work.
On CM7...under settings/applications/developement...there is an option...stop app via long-press...uncheck that...now holding back (or phantom press) wont close anything. Hope this helps.
Just remembered that I made this thread, because my phone was freaking out again today and closing apps. Oh how I need to sleep more...
I unchecked the "force close on back button" long-press option. I'm curious what would be causing this, either the kernel or ROM. My gut tells me kernel, but I have no idea. I'm not technically skilled enough (yet) to pour through kernel code to fix it.

reboot recovery and wipe cache and reboot, then run fix permission in term emu or boot back into recovery and run fix permission....I've never run miui but if you phone goes buzz........ Buzz..buzz..buzz that is a force close of something whether a message box pops up or not. it could be from a kernel issue...although I would think its something else like forgetting to wipe something in the initial flash or restoring Data or incompatible apps in titanium backup...did you restore via Ti-Bu?

I was experiencing that before this last time, after a cache/dalvik wipe, reinstall I haven't had it happen since. It was so aggravating too, as it was like MIUI was bragging about closing something I was using...
Hello all. I'm starting this thread to find out what made the phone process constantly FC in cyanogenmod7. Hope other users can contribute to this testing.
For me I suspect it's probably related to app data. Installing too many apps and moving it to sd may have led to the FC.
The second time I tried, moving dalvik to sd caused it.
Third flash, everything was stable until recent lags in browsers. It can be so laggy it affects locking screen. Feedback comes 10 seconds late. Held power button to force reboot, poof! Another phone process force close.
What led to that in cyanogenmod for you guys?

I used the a2sd script to process 170 apps , but I don't see any errors with phone.apk .

Weird. Do you think it's the swap partition?
you know what i did? i wiped the battery stats in CWM then when i turned the Ace on, phone app goes FC! good thing Lovetz provided that fix though; haven't encountered that since FC then.

That guy saved my ass as well, installed the middleclock mod which brought the FC error.
But I have experienced FCs from time to time, even after using that fix.

I don't experience any problem with the centre clock mod .
Forever living in my Galaxy Ace using XDA App
Happened to me after rebooting after I restored some apps from titanium backup(did not occur immediately after restoring...occurred after rebooting).That was before Lovetz's fix. So I had to factory reset. But that did not occur after that ever again(after restoring over 100 apps including those apps).
Seems like a random bug that pops out when it wants to.
I dont use apps to sd and dont keep alot of apps on the phone. I do use center clock mod and a theme. I've only had it once. I think its related to the kernel, it far from complete but im confident that given time the guys will fix it. Also i heard coolya is back on the project, if thats true its based in his work so he will probably find a fix. I think patents is the key here. There is a fix for now, its something we must live with for an otherwise incredible rom.

Yeah it's incredible except for some stability problems that makes it not so trustworthy. Just to substantiate, I notice extreme lags right before the next boot which will have the fc of the phone process.
After awhile....for no particular reason phone gets slower and slower. Until it lags... I get force closes and i have to wipe and re flash! Why?
Side note: how do you restore contacts? I've tried in tibu...but nothing

Every couple weeks I always wipe cache and dalvik, seems to help on mtd. I only use google to sync contacts and tibu for apps.
So I haven't found anyone with the same issues I'm having. My text messaging randomly freezes then force closes, and so does the Facebook app. I haven't noticed a trend in when it actually happens, just seems to be random. I originally thought it might have been a ROM issue, I was running SuperNexus, but I flashed to Ktoonsez AOKP and there was no change. I've wiped the dalvik three times, and still nothing and I really don't want to wipe my phone or get a new one. Any solutions?

LOL Oops, forgot to mention that. I did wipe it then, didn't fix anything. I'm starting to think there might be something wrong with the hardware, and I'm really hoping it's not it. I haven't done anything to hurt it.

Trying clearning data for those two apps.
A full wipe consists of the system, data, cache, dalvik cache, and running the kernel cleaning script ( optional but useful in my opinion) did u do all those things before installing this new ROM? If not try it and reflash the ROM.

MIUI 2.4.20

for a day or two, my streak can run even with some FC's
and now, stuck after logo (stuck on inverse dell logo before MIUI screen)
any body have any solution ?
Can't help with the random force closes, but the can't load error resolves itself when the Streak is shut off.
One thing that will help is to not have a lot of widgets running, as they suck up RAM, and lack of RAM could be the source of the random force closes.

Every time it force close, the only thing I did is shut down. but it still FC after running normal about for an hour.
and force close came after my streak idle for a while.
as far as I know I only used 3 widgets. Google Search, Clock and Battery monitor
Then, I uninstalled battery widget. It still happen.
try another rom
that might solve the problem
i personally prefer traveller dsc :thumbup:

I've never tried MIUI, mostly because the screen is locked in portrait. But, if all else fails, go to a different ROM. But also keep in mind that in going from one ROM to another you often have to do both the Dell factory reset and the Streakmod factory reset before the device will function properly. When you installed MIUI, did you do this?

As I recall I only did Dell factory reset, may be that the problem, but somehow it run fine for 3 or 4 months
If you only did one and not the other, that is likely the source of your problems. Even though it appeared to work fine, in time something will mess up and you'll be where you currently are: having to do both factory resets and restoring everything.
