Does anybody notice the same issue?
My phone is not rooted. After the official update to 2.2 (ED01) I found this problem with all apps on my Fascinate that have the scan function: google goggle, shopsavvy, amazon, etc. Sometimes they crash at starting (goggle will force the phone to reboot), but most of the time you can open the app and scan properly once or twice, then the scanner fails to auto-focus or adjust brightness or white balance, getting no response. Hitting any keys on screen or the back key will only end up with vibrating and screen-blackout. I can only exit the situation by hit home and kill the app in task manager.
I found a similar post around xda:

The problem is said to be associated with the stock Email.apk and will be gone once you run the email app. But this solution doesn't work for me.
Anyone has more idea?
I just tested out Google Shopper and Barcode Scanner with two barcodes each, and neither had any issue. Have you opened up the camera app since updating? Froyo brought about new camera firmware, so if you haven't opened Camera since updating, that could be what's causing the FCs.
The stock camera app and third-party apps like retro camera both have no issue. The picture-taking function goes well, problems only come when the app need to scan back and forth and auto adjust.

Thank you for testing that for me. Can more people try out? Am I the only one that have this issue?
If so I assume this is an individual problem that can be fixed by factory reset, although I am reeeeaaaally unwilling to do that.
My phone is all tricked out and everything works great.
I tried on my wife's phone which is stock and it has numerous issues with camera, google goggles, market, barcode scanner, etc... surprised she's not noticed. :/
Rebooted and everything worked.
Google Goggle's might have crashed and caused the initial issue.
So, maybe just a reboot will help you?
Thanks, but I have no luck with that. Roboot doesn't help at all in my case. I even uninstalled the Goggles and the other scanner apps still suffered the same issue.
Google goggles works for me

Hi guys, does anyone know a good force close app. I'm using ATK but it only seems to close the applicantions and they restart (I'm not talking about the basic applications like phone...etc. but applications like market, gmail stuff like that).
I have to go to the app. manager to force close them and that's just annyoing
Thanks.
Bump
Anybody?

First off - I'm totally lost with Tasker. I understand it's potential, but I just can't make heads or tails of it. I'm the dumbest geek on XDA ;-D
So, a little help please: I run Visidon AppLock - but find that it stops running every once in a while. It doesn't appear to force close -- just stops or exits for some reason. I never get a FC notification, I just notice that the icon isn't there, and the service has stopped running.
Tasker SHOULD be able to relaunch an app whenever that same app closes, right? So how do I do that? Simple step-by-step for the idiot poster would be appreciated.
Is anyone having the issue of youtube and maps force closing, they mostly force close during I'm updating an app. Some times it happens randomly as well.. Just wondering why
Is there a way to keep an app always loaded into memory ready to be recalled by opening it's app shortcut? The reason I ask is I have an app that when it closes I lose my place and data but I still need to continue multitasking in other apps. I would appreciate the help
