Jelly Bean Qu's (possible issues) - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi All,
My S3 updated to JB last night, I have a couple questions..
1. When I restart my phone a message saying android is upgrading apps always appears (Does anyone else keep getting that?/ Is it normal?)
2. Is there any way to change the vibrate/ringtone notifications, where the default I chose applies to all apps, rather than having to individually change settings in each app.
I am rooted, I have removed all the bloatware, but the rom and kernel are stock.
Thanks in advance

Thanks for the reply,
everytime I restart my phone I get that message. Maybe something went wrong? but I did use kies to do the update.
Is there a cache I can clear, maybe it would stop it??
Update: Tried clearing Dalvik cache, didnt do anything.
When the phone started back up, it said upgrading 96 apps.
When it was done, I restarted and it still has a similar message :/
Im stumped.
Thanks in advance

Backup and try factory reset.

But it looks like its the only option.

The process android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again

I have just now installed the XXKI3 Non Wipe Frankenstien version of Intratech. Also rooted it with CF root. But the error which I was getting with KF3, I am still getting it with KI3. This error comes when I tap on "Create Contact" button or "Add Contact" Button:
The process android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.
How to solve this problem?
I used to get this message after flashing a new rom when I forgot to wipe my data and dalvik cache. Do a factory reset and the problem should go away.

Is there no other way? I don't want to lose my data, saved SMS msgs etc. Anyone knows what exactly is the problem?
I started getting this error only recently when I was on CF rooted Stock KF3. I thought flashing a new ROM might solve this problem so I flashed Intratech's Frankenstein non wipe XXKI3 today and rooted it. But the problem is still persisting!

any idea why G+ 2.0 cause the problem?
started to get this now everytime i install something from the market. Says launcher pro (android.process.acore) is force closing. Ive tried clearing the data from launcher pro and even tried uninstalling and reinstalling but still happens. I dont have G+ installed either
Thankfully it only needs me to click ok and its all ok but just trying to figure out why its happening to begin with

I had this just now - killing contacts cache and storage did nothing, removing G+ 2.0 fixed instantly...thanks guys
+1
uninstalling Google+ 2.0 solved that issue for me too.
Thanks.
Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!
G+ 2.0 was the culprit, and I'd been pulling my hair out in frustration.
For process.acore freezing, often the culprit is some apps like calendar which is trying to sync events like birthdays from contacts and is not able to.
I had this problem on GingerMod rom. Flashing touch wiz calendar solved it. Because aosp calendar was the culprit.

"Process android.process.media has stopped" after JB update

Hey guys, I can't even use my phone after the official update of the Jelly Bean (via Kies). After booting, the phone freeze almost completely and pop-up this message. Any fix without reseting ? I tried cleaning the cache but the problem isn't fixed
If anybody had this issue, can give me an idea about how to fix it ? Thanks
Try clearing its data in app manager
Nop, can't find it. I tried cleaning most of data but nothing works :/ Damn...is Samsung able to do something without bugs ?
that's why no one uses kies
Factory reset or download an Odin version and flash with Odin

Yeah, I like to root, but not to change the rom Now I need to root again. At least the issues has been solved.
Fixing permissions usually solves that problem barring that a full wipe and start again.

As I got the official update, I lost the root, I tried to clear the cache and as I've seen that is not working and the phone was freezing each 5 seconds I got a bit scared to start rooting it. I wiped it, installed my apps and now everything is ok. However, it's weird that I didn't got the apps automatically installed like it's happened last time when Amazon replaced my S3 for some screen issues (some scratches inside the screen). I just added my google account and everything started installing automatically. Not this time...
just downloaded jelly bean tonight and having this issue. has anyone come up with a solution that does not involve a full hardware restart???
Had same problem after I updated 3 months ago. I think was an incompatibility with an app or something has not updated completely. Fixed it with factory reset.
You can backup apps with Samsung Kies I think if you don't want to lose progress in games, the other stuff is automatically synced

I'm afraid it'll probably have to be a full reset just make sure you've backed up.

wiping data will mean you have to reinstall your rom
I've wiped cache/dalvik numerous times, and it still happens
and, when I flash new rom, i factory reset, wipe data/cache/dalvik, and run darkstar system wipe, and it still happens
First try fixing permissions from within your recovery.

Hello,
this problem happens to me too for a few day now.
System not responding at every boot, but everything seems normal.
when i flash a new nightlie and it reboots, i do not get this message. But after i reboot again it reapears.
after a search i found this, there: http://www.modaco.com/topic/359832-devrom152-cyanogenmod-101-android-422/
its for zte blade

"11​.2.2013 changelog:
reverted commits (1,2) that caused 'Process system isn't responding' issue on every reboot"
(the comits have something to do with the new FM stuff in the rom)
Maybe someone want to have a look at it?
I can not post in the official CM10.1-galaxysmtd thread yet.

Hello Again,
The problem is gone for me i found out that it has something to do either with the Theme i was using, or/and the Launcher. Because i first switched my Launcher (Nova Launcher) to the Stock one (Trebuchet) (merely just because i did not know how i should fix that problem) then at the after the first reboot with stock launcher the problem was gone, but came back after i rebooted again. So i changed my Theme (JellyBeanExtreme) and the problem did not appear again "knockin´3x on wood^^"
Maybe this can help someone who had or will have this problem.
Greetings,
Strainhunter

Eh, nope. That would be if you wiped your system. Wiping data will take away all your apps and customizations, but will leave the ROM intact (remember: "ROM" = "Read-Only Memory").
IMO if you want to start anew as a first level troubleshoot, it's much easier to wipe cache/dalvik/SYSTEM, then reflash your ROM and GAPPS. This has solved my problems about 90% of the time, especially when I've installed a mod my phone doesn't like, or done something stupid while messing around in /system/.

I had the same problem. I uninstalled Nova launcher but it was still giving me the same error.
I uninstalled Cobalt theme for CM 10 and that fixed it. Hopefully it gets updated to 10.1, I like the theme.

It is absolutely the themes that do this. However, from what I read up on it there is literally nothing actually going wrong with the device except for a teeny couple of extra seconds on boot up (which can supposedly be rectified by hitting "Wait" instead of "Stop" or whatever it says.
Actually, I even remember them saying that the mere fact that you're getting the error message means that it's installed correctly.. Something about the stock framework not liking being modified.

ya...i noticed nothing was really wrong while getting the error, it just bug me that i was getting that little pop up window. i would hit "wait" or "cancel" and it didnt seem to make a difference, it would go away and that was it. once in a while it would pop back up when getting a text or call, before i could answer the call i had to click it to make it go away to be able to answer. so i decided not to use the theme and not worry about that error.....so would it be any theme or just some themes? maybe ill try other themes and see what happens.....

[HELP] "the process com.android-phone has stopped"

Hey Guys,
It may be a long story but anyways: Suddenly, I got yesterday the message "Unfortunately the process com.android-phone has stopped" on my Xperia Sola (JB Experiencev2 , not unlocked), whenever i got in the Settings Menu. So I thougt maybe it will disappear when I'm restarting the phone. Unfortunately, my sola was stock in a bootloop. Through Recovery Menu I tried everything, but it still got the bootloop. People said I had to flash the stock rom, I did it and now it could boot and everything, but I got the message back at the first guide when you start your phone the first time And it won'T go away
How can I solve this ((
I think when I'm trying to rebbot the phone again, there will be a bootloop again
Go to settings/apps and clear contact storage i believe it is.

Did you restore a backup after flashing? This happened to me once when I was using muiu and then flashed JB, and restored using Titanium Backup. I think it restored some files from MIUI which were causing this :S I had to wipe again and flashed JB, and then I didn't restore but had to reinstall all my apps from scratch

Okay, now here is what happened. I flashed the .54 kernel and the firmware and everything seemed to work again. I loaded most of my apps again but then this happened: If I open apps like Facebook, twitter chrome, walkman or the browser they immediately close with the message that the app stopped or some com...phone stopped!? Now can you tell me how I just flash everything to bring it normal. I Just want to use my phone, I don'T care if I have to flash everything, I just want to use it normally again :crying:
Please help me!!!
EDIT: I pressed in the settings back to factory settings and rebootet it and now the messaging starts again:
"Unfortunately the process com.android.phone stopped" !? And I can't close it ! Please help me
When you re flashed did you wipe data?

what about installing the rom again? backup first, then u can restore importand data with titanium
Okay, I flashed just the stock rom again and then everything seemed to work again... I could play all apps and facebook and twitteetc., but then I wanted to change something in the settings on language & input and then it came: "the process com.android-phone has stopped". And most of my apps didn't work anymore like Play store etc. So what do I have to do??? Why is the Rom or something so fu*ked up, please tell me what to do step by step.
And yes i wiped data, i think.
Have you managed to get to contacts/contact storage to clear it yet?

[SOLVED] Phone wakes up immediately after being locked

Hey there!
I'm on NeatRom 5.2 (4.1.2) with Apolo 4.12, but I've got a problem. Sometimes, immediately after my phone has been locked it wakes up, and I have to unlock and lock it again, because trying to lock it without unlocking won't work (I've tried for smth like 6 times in a row too )
Anybody help please? Thank you so much!
EDIT: I've sorted it out with changing my rom (Neat-->HCT)
EDIT 2: IUpdating NatRom to latest version sorted it out too :good:

You may have another app that is doing something to wake your phone just after it locks - have you installed anything recently?
EDIT: It may be worth going back to cwm and cleaning cache/dalvik - just to make sre your apps are optimised.
Thanks for your reply. I've checked with Wakelock detector if there's something that keeps my phone awake, but I found nothing, and I didn't install something new.
I've tried wiping cache and dalvik too, but it didn't work :banghead:

OK - next step then run GS2RomNuke @hawkerpaul in cwm then reflash your rom and see if the problem persists.

Its either that or uninstall all of your apps and reinstall one by one I think
So..I've tried uninstalling everything after a clean install and restore of some apps, but the problem remained, do I changed the rom. I'm using HCT rom now, and I've got no problems at all!
