I have a samsung galaxy s3 purchased just over 2 months ago. and just yesterday googleplay started crashing. once I open it, it shows a black screen and then goes back to homescreen. sometimes it crashes when I press "install". at the same time, this message shows each time it crashes or when I restart the phone: "operation process.google.com.gapps has stopped" or something like that. I searched the internet for solutions and here's what I tried so far:
-restarted phone.
-deleted caches and history from googleplay.
-then i deleted them from all google apps i have.
-uninstalled updates from googleplay. now I only have the options "force close" and "disable" instead.
-changed date and time "though they were correct". then changed them back.
-tried rebooting "and by that i mean pressing the close button for like 12 sec and the phone was restarted". because i don't know what rebooting is.
got any solutions? or maybe even guide me through the previous steps correctly?

Hopefully someone can help me out.
The problem I'm having is that every time I go into to the app drawer to add an app to any of the home screen, the app doesn't transfer over.
However, if I'm on a home screen and I long press on it and choose shortcuts>applications> I can pick the desired application then it'll transfer over to my home screen. It wasn't like this earlier today.
I rooted my phone using the one-click method so I'm wondering if that had something to do with it.It seems that this issue just started after I rooted, but I can't confirm this.
Also ,I don't have another home replacement/launcher installed on the phone.
So if anyone know of a fix, it'll be much appreciated.
Thanks
It does not have anything to do with root. Did you remove an files using root explorer? If not I would try a battery pull first. If it were me I would try power and vol button and do the wipe. HOWEVER I am not sure if root will stay with this device or not it did on my previous phones.
Very odd issue, is there any "lock desktop" settings on the phone?
Thats weird...try wipe cache and wipe dalvic cache in recovery and reboot? Do u use titanium backup? If so did u freeze any programs or delete any?

Whenever a new notification appears in my notification bar on stock gb rom its always accompanied by the same four browser notifications from months back saying download completed.
I downloaded some images off net for my blog using browser and even when I click clear to clear the notifications its only the same four download completed ones reappear.
Is there some way to manually remove them permanently assuming they are stored on device and for some reason not getting deleted properly?

Guess its a silly thing but I tried opening the Download history in the Browser and .......behold!!! This app was actually downloaded from the browser and now that I have cleared it from the browser, it is no longer showing up. Common sense...but well, I really didn't remember I downloaded this one on my browser and not the app market
I have a button which says "Clear" on the right side of the screen, but I have Samsung.
Go into the "Downloads" app or the download history in the browser and clear the files from there. That should stop the notifications.
Try whether this works?
Senior,
How about you give this a try?
1. Move the files which ur screen notifications refer to, into ur PC folder temporarily
2. Delete your download history in your phone
3. Reboot your phone and browse internet again
Check whether the same problem happens? If it's not, then you move your files back into your phone
Sincerely,

Hi all, I have searched about this issue and it seems like there isn't a workaround for it. I recently acquired SGS3, and found this Email issue very annoying (specifically Hotmail). I tried K9 and MailDroid, and found that they didn't have as good as a Push feature as the stock SGS3 email app. (I was an avid Blackberry user)
Anyway, I just want to bring this to the attention of other more knowledgeable users on xda. Are there any methods to make Hotmail Email sent from SGS3 (using stock email app) show the Full sender name instead of the Hotmail login name?
Others with the same issues:
fingery said:
Is it possible to set the from name when sending an email using the default email app?
I'm sending via hotmail configured as exchange in the app but the from name always shows as the full name associated with my live login. On all my other ICS devices, in the standard email app its possible to configure what you want to show as your name in the from field.
Is this no longer possible as it looks like they've removed the option from the configuration screen. Any hack to do it?

I've used hotmail as my email for years and on many mobile phones
including iPhone 3G, 4, 4s, HTC One X and the Galaxy Nexus.
It seems as if the phone is supposed to pick up the display name from
the hotmail server but it does NOT. Anyone run into this issue and
know how to correct it?
Thanks!

Has anyone found an answer to this?
It was an issue with SGS2 and SGS1 before it. It's a Samsung stock email issue. Surely there are loads of people out there with Samsung phones and Hotmail accounts?

bump again, any news about that?

ok i finally managed to fix it in a very primative way, when you are going to your account settings you can see the "your name" option n it disappears right away, what you need to do is to change any option in the menu n exit, then get in the settings again n this time the "your name" option will last a second or two, enough time to hit it to be able to change it

This worked perfectly. I've had my Galaxy Note for just under a year and have had to resort to the official Hotmail app on the market which is very buggy. I was seriously annoyed when my name wouldn't appear from the stock email app, it otherwise worked very well.
As you said, when you enter the settings menu the Your name option appears for a second before disappearing. The only way to get it to return is to change any menu option, close the menu and then return to the menu. You have to be quick but you can select the option before it disappears and edit your name in the dialogue box that appears.
Good find!
It took a few attempts but here's a screenshot taken during that tiny one second window.
Isn't there another way to get the Your Name option updated? Unfortunately I must be really to slow as I'm never able catch that option for the fraction of second I see it...

thanks profahmad...but for some mysterious reason, the "Your name" field never appeared on the i9300.
Don't understand how this issue is still unresolved.. Extremely annoying!
Hi all,
I can't seem to click it, I do notice soemthing changes in the menu structure but there is no way that I can click on it...
Is there any other way of getting to this setting?
It is really annoying that it can't be changed!
There is a solution to this here.

I have just resolved this issue.
If you have installed recently an app, it might be that same app causing the bug.
What you should do is simply uninstall it.
In my case it is "Light Manager : Led Settings".
Smart Manager is working fine now.
Let me know if this worked for you too.

In my case i didn't remember the last app i installed. What worked for me was to place the Smart Manager widget to my home screen and press clean all. Hope this helps other people

For the past week or two, I've been having an issue with the menu/back button on the top left portion of my screen. The problem is that when I press the button on the screen, it does absolutely nothing. It happens with several different apps such as email, Facebook, chrome, gallery, etc. No matter how hard I push on the screen, the button does absolutely nothing and it is driving me crazy. Has anyone else experienced this issue? I should also add that this happens both in portrait mode and landscape.

There have been lots of posts/threads on this! Seems to be Facebook Messenger causing the issue..
+1 on seeing that it has been reported to be caused by the Facebook messenger app. Mine doesn't have a problem so it's apparently an issue with one version.
People have been successful fixing it by uninstalling updates to the app or uninstalling the app all together.
Hoping for a fix from Facebook. I'm glad mine doesn't have this problem!

Thank you guys for your input. I will try to uninstall Facebook Messenger to an older version and see what happens.

YUP! I have the same issues. Just went to tmobile and because I am past the 14 days I was told to contact LG and see about a fix. The only temporary fix is to shut off the phone take out the battery for 30 seconds and then restart the phone. It fixes the menu/back button briefly. I end up doing this 3 -4 times a day.

My LG V10 shows that I can't uninstall because it is a built-in app. I did clear cache and the menu/back button is now working. Let's see if that is a permanent fix for me.

And if you need to use FB Messenger, you may try uninstalling updates to the app and turning off automatic updates to the app in the Play Store.... maybe the version that shipped with the phone doesn't have the bug. Also, others have mentioned alternative messengers apps for messaging thru FB.
