hi all.. i have been getting the process.acore crashes all the time. I have cleared the contact storage etc i have tried everything.. from a flashing different roms and doing a complete clean install (formatting the sdcard)... but it always appears back pretty soon.. I want to troubleshoot it but i have no clue where to start.. i installed alogcat but it shows nothing... i want to know whats causing these crashes so any help would be appreciated. I have a feeling that some contact is causing this but need to be sure..
I use haxsync but it also crashes with the same error...
formatting the sd card is not a clean install. you have to format system and data

yes i know. i wipe the system completely while installing the rom, forgot to mention that. I cleaned the sdcard too just incase.. but still the problem is there. I would like to know how to troubleshoot it to see what the problem is. mainly it is about how to get the logs in this system. I have tried a lot but it seems there is something missing all the time..
Try uninstalling Facebook if that is installed. If this does not fix your problem then try the following.Settings>Applications>System Applications>Contacts Sync Adapter and press Clear Data, this error usually goes away. If this doesn't work, try clearing the data on Settings>Applications>System Applications>Contacts or Settings>Applications>System Applications>Contacts Storage.If problem is fixed, then restore contacts and reinstall Facebook and make sure you don't sync contacts with it.

I tried this too but still the same error, thats why i want to see the logs, but the problem is that i couldnt see it. I installed alogcat and a couple of more logcat viewers, but they show nothing and its blank. I went through many tutorials, made alogcat a system application but its still the same.
I tried it on a fresh system without installing facebook or anything, still crashed with the same error so i am thinking maybe some thing from the contact is not right...
Any help on logcat troubleshoot is appreciated ...

Here's a new one. Searched and couldn't find.
I was on ICZen 1.3, and ran a batch backup on all user apps on Titanium Backup.
I should point out that some time ago on this ROM, I did flash the datafix_11032012.zip file. I felt this could be important information in the discussion.
I then reset/wiped/formatted and flashed ICZen 1.4 goodness. Waited, rebooted. Fixed Permissions, rebooted. I'm good to go to restore my apps+data.
But on the first couple that I restored (Angry Birds Space, among them), I tried to launch and immediately got a Force Close message "Unfortunately, Angry Birds Space has stopped"
This only happens when I try to restore with data. If I restore "app only", the app launches. But if I try to restore with data (even if "data only"), the app FC.
It's not a bad ROM download or flash. I've checked the md5 and even reflashed. Even went back to ICZ 1.3. Same result.
Being this is a data issue, I think the datafix file may have something to do with it. Who knows?
Any ideas here?
Two things. Did you do the data fix on RC1.4 (was it a clean install)? and I always suggest NOT doing batch backups with TB. Sure it saves time but in my past experiences, it cause more problems than it solves.
Try this. Go into TB and hit Preferences, then scroll all the way to the bottom and hit Troubleshooting. Once that opens, tick the Follow All Symbolic Links and see if that work.
Might have to wipe data and caches since you already tried to restore. Maybe not though. See if you can uninstall some app (I do not suggest useing AGB Space as a tester, it is a little wonky) and then reinstall it with the tweak above.

I've uninstalled/restored and even redownloaded from the play store/market. The app launches with no data, but whenever I try to restore the data (via TBu) that's when it FC. I have just tried this on another app (Pandora). Same result.
I think what Woodrube was trying to say after you restore the apps with data,
did you try to reboot to recovery, wipe both cache and dilvik.
when the phone starts up again you should see a msg say "optimizing apps 1 of 123" or something like, cant really remember what it said.
i'm using iczen 1.4 too , came from 1.3 but didnt do a full wipe. so far no issues, if you have a nandroid, you may just want to recovery and flash over.
I have the same problem... Without solution? =/
Same problem. Cannot find solution anywhere
would also like to see an answer. I have the same issue on my captivate

I am experiencing the same issues. I assume you have this problem with ICS roms, because that's where I get those problems. I am currently running WEUI and half my apps are not at all working. I have also flashed back to stock, tried ICS Slim and MIUI v4, but no luck. I am also getting issues, while listening to music, where the song will keep on playing, but the app will ask me if I want to FC or wait. This has only happened recently. I really do not feel like going back to 2.2 or 2.3. Any help is greatly appreciated
Have you guys tried fixing the permissions?
That usually fixes most force close problems.

Tried it, but no luck. Only option now is to flash a different ics rom, and see if that works. If all else fails I can always go back to bionix.
2 questions:
1 Can you see your internalSD with a file explorer?
2 Did you try wiping /cache and /dalvik-cache and rebooting?
I find a good wipe cure many things wrong (with my phone too )

1. Yes
2. Yes, usually before I flash a different rom/reflash rom to try and fix this I wipe data and wipe cache patition and dalvik cache.
OK. The first question was to make sure you still had access to your internal and not sole sort of veiled encryption error.
Let me think about somethings and ill get back to you. I am wondering if it wouldn't be a bad idea to format /data and /system to make sure that you don't have any ghosts lurking. If you do, make sure you back up SDs contents to PC just in case.

All those apps are still force closing on 2.2. Could it be, because I'm restoring them from titanium backup?
I'll try to backup SD onto my Computer and then format sd. It's probably some ghost file that is causing my phone to have errors. It probably is a file that has to do with MIUI since I flashed that as it happened.
Btw thanks for trying to help
Edit: I formatted sd card, put all the files back onto sd card, restored apps with tiatnium backup, but still no luck. I even factory reset,wiped cache and dalvik cache after formatting sd, but still no luck.
Thanks everyone for trying to help. I figued out the problem. Titanium backup was causing all those apps to have issues. I uninstalled all user apps via tb and download them from the market. I am getting no force close what so ever, with dl apps from market.
Usually when that happens from TB, it is from restoring system files (they show in red in the TB list of apps).
I use it to restore user apps + data every time I flash a new ROM, but I never use it to restore system apps, and I don't have any problems with it.
Since you've already restored from the market, you could try running TB and deleting it's backup data and then running a new batch backup of user apps (and no system apps) to have the freshest copy of your apps from a working system. That should allow you to restore in the future, hopefully without issue.

This could be a problem with using TB. TB gives you the option of restoring apps+data. If you're coming from a 2.2 rom to 4.0, you don't want to keep the data from a 2.2 rom. What you can do is restore apps without the data. That should solve your problem.
So I had a bizarre crash and now continuous rebooting. Let me explain what happened:
A friend messages me on Facebook to tell me his new number. It is highlighted so I click it and the dialer promptly opens and shows the number, and I highlight his number so I can paste it into his contact. When I click the copy button, the phone hangs, and shortly reboots.
I don't worry, these occasional crashes aren't unheard of. But when the phone reboots, it loads up a few widgets and my background before rebooting again. And you can see where this is going.
I figure I glitches some cache so I use vol up, power and home and wipe the cache. I think that fixed it, as I get about a minute then it goes again, and back we go to shorter times.
I'm at a loss to how this has happened. Any quick ideas? I'd like to avoid a factory wipe if I can avoid it.
Update and bump
So, it only occurs when I have my SD card installed???
Anybody know anything about this?
formatting sd card and factory reset helps ...
Trying to avoid factory reset - already used odin to reflash and it did nothing besides ruin my carefully preserved root which I have now restored.
Now I'm exploring whether some weird app has installed to SD card and is playing weird, whilst I scan the SD card for problems.
I did find other threads talking about this issue in ICS:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1446961&page=9
but we shall see...
At this point, I'm sure that Factory and SD wipe would probably work, but I'm now as curious WHY it's happening, perhaps to help others later.
actually its happening with more posts tht i seen ,is wiv ppl using app2sd an movd all apps to sd...the prblm dosnt come if the apps r left were it is instead of moving...
I had the same problem after installing the insecure kernel.my cell started restarting.
Than I flashed a different kernel provided by chainfire. Bingo issue resolved ;-)

Why not use TB to backup all your apps & data then do a factory wipe/reset. Copy your SD card to your PC then format it. Reinstall TB then all your apps & data.

I've just flashed SuperNexus and backed up all my apps + data for the first time, it's going through each app one by one on the installation, I assumed it would do it all in one go, is this normal? or have I done it wrong haha?
edit2: after restoring apps + data I just keep getting spammed with messages like "unfortunately, the process android.process.acore has stopped" when I try open contacts, phone etc it says the same message, halp what have I done wrong? my phone keeps crashing cause of everything not working
i cant send a text or anything! even when I receive calls it comes up, some apps work fine and the data is there but most important functions just do not work, can anybody please help me ?

You might try going in recovery and wipe cache and dalvik cache, fix permissions and reboot.
Don't restore system data, and to batch restore apps you need the pro version
I just wiped the caches and nothing changed. If I reflash and restore just apps will I lose the data for the apps? Like saves etc

No, you can restore user apps and it`s data. You will not loose anything.

Yes, but you should be okay to restore data for the apps, but don't restore system data across roms.

Great!
I just reflashed and just did missing apps + data and all works fine, my save game on final fantasy 3 is still there
Good job I saved contacts to SIM or it would of been annoying, thanks everyone!
I thought I bricked it last night too lol, I was flashing "UltimaROM" and was instructed to wipe the phone with his custom installer using Super Wipe. I did that and it just froze, was making no progress at all so I turned it off. It kept rebooting over and over and wouldn't get into recovery mode for ages but it eventually did.
Can anybody answer my kernal question? Is it safe to flash a custom kernal after ROM? I only ask because I read somewhere certain kernals/rom flashing causes a "brick bug" or something

U don't it just doesn't use hypershell so you have to confirm each separate installation.

Hello, Im new to all this Rooting and Flashing roms stuff. I flashed Jellybeer to my G Note i717 AT&T and was restoring system stuff like messages from Titanium Backup and I get a message from Pic #1 after i rebooted and this is what i was restoring and what i think i did wrong (but I dont know what i did wrong if that makes sense) on pic #2. How do i fix this without having to wipe everything again and re flashing the rom? do i just wipe system data from TWRP ?

i think i read this somewhere before that the error has something to do with the contacts sync. you can try going into settings>apps>all>google contacts sync>clear data. if that doesnt work you can also try clearing the contacts storage data as well. and then just sync your contacts again.
i also saw this online......if your using facebook: Settings>Accounts and Sync>Facebook>uncheck Contacts
hope this helps...
Backing up and restoring apps, sms, etc.. is the best way to quickly start using your newly flashed ROM, unfortunately, most devs on here DO NOT recommend that for the simple fact that it causes many issues such as the one you are experiencing now.
However, I've found what seems to be a fix: {Good Luck}
Do you have your contacts backed up?
Try uninstalling Facebook if that is installed. If this does not fix your problem then try the following.
Settings>Applications>System Applications>Contacts Sync Adapter and press Clear Data, this error usually goes away. If this doesn't work, try clearing the data on Settings>Applications>System Applications>Contacts or Settings>Applications>System Applications>Contacts Storage.
If problem is fixed, then restore contacts and reinstall Facebook and make sure you don't sync contacts with it.
