Strange App crashes - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I have some really strange App crashes since a few weeks: Google Photos won't run, an app from my carrier (MeinVodafone) and Google Search. The strangest thing is that Google Search is working...partially. I can not open the app directly, but I can open it via voice (timer etc is working and search also has no problems) and I can open the settings in Google Settings (Play Services). Attached are some catlog logs.
I'm running ParanoidAndroid 5.1 (5.1.1) on an d802. Build is from 1st june.
I'm also running XPosed Framework. I already thougt that WebViewGoogle could be the cause for that, but that would affect more apps and I haven't found any hint on that in the logs.
Any tips what could cause these strange crashes?

UPDATE: I just changed my system language to english (from German) and at least Photos is running without problems...

I have 3 possible solutions..
1. Reinstall apps
2. Wipe /data, /cache from recovery
3. Reinstall the rom or choose another rom.
Third should work but idk if you want that.

I already reinstalled them and I'm already running the second or third update. I'll try it with wiping /cache and /dalvik-cache, /data would delete all apps

Ok please update the thread with news

It looks like I cannot wipe /cache, it says done but shows the old "E: cannot mount storage" and then I stuck on boot animation for over 15 minutes, way longer than normal. Repair it also doesn't help that.
I know I can delete dalvik-cache by deleting the files in /data/dalvik-cache/arm. Is there a way for cache too? That would be the only way to do that

@Artim_96 yes there is a way but I think its pointless. Try flashing stock rom or any other non-lollipop rom and then return to lollipop.

I don't think that's the only possible solution. I'm on PA since January, the bug with Google Search and MeinVodafone is only since a few weeks.

It surely isn't only possible solution but it is recommended.

it is pointless to flash a KK ROM, restore the apps, install an LP ROM and restore the apps again. It just makes no sense to do so.

I never said to restore apps, wipe everything (system,data,cache) and flash rom and gapps.

So you want me to reinstall everything, right? Are you kidding me? And what should I use? A blank system just with Google Apps?

I now got search to work again, the problem was the XPosed Module "Force Immersive mode", the other app is still not working, so I made another log with all modules disabled.
But I found another bug: the location service seems to be not working properly: no app that should be shown is there and Google Fit was not working today. (I never really use it, so I just saw that and because Fit was draining the battery to much I just reinstalled it to test it)

[Q] Gapps missing from drawer in CM 7.2.0 FXP50. Any idea how to fix it?

I'm posting this here because i don't have posting rights in the dev section yet. I installed FXP50 yesterday on my NEO then installed the gapps package. Yet even though the apps appear in Settings-> Application they don't appear on my drawer and so i can't use them. I tried reinstalling the package, wiping data/cache and wiping market data but nothing worked. When i installed CM i was on CM7Xperia edition and not stock though i don't really think this has anything to do with that. Anything else i could try?
I got it fixed. Well i reinstalled the mod twice and the second time i tried setting up a Google account(which failed because of locked Wifi) and then skipping the step. I guess if you skip the step without trying to set up an account it's missing from the app drawer although i didn't try to replicate it.

[Q] GApps Force Closing on MIUI

Alright guys, I'm in need of some help.
I've been flashing MIUI on my Fascinate for months now and recently I've run into a problem. On RickS' 1.12.9 I'm getting a lot of FCs. About 24-48 hours after flashing and setting up my phone I get a notification at boot that every GApp along with TB, Facebook, Script Manager have "stopped unexpectedly" and need to be force closed. My flash process is as follows:
1) ODIN either DL09 or EH03
2) ODIN CWM4
3) 3 finger boot to CWM and flash RickS 1.12.9
4) Everything is fine up to here
5) TB - Restore missing user apps (just apps, not data)
6) Set up Supercharger script (update9 RC5 test 2), Voltage Control OC/UV, Glitch kernel leakage/screen state
7) Reboot
8) Wait about a day and a couple of reboots later for the force close party to start.
Has anyone run into a similar problem? I've tried a few solutions (i.e. mixing up my flash routine, fix permissions...)
Thanks,
EJ
EDIT: Also, whenever I flash weblexa's builds after step 7 I get stuck in a bootloop. I'm going to try to just flash it and reboot to see if I don't get stuck (which, if I don't probably means that something I'm doing while setting up my apps and such is the cause of the problems).

I have had this same issue, and for months it drove me nuts cause I couldn't figure out the problem.
It didn't happen so much with all google apps, mainly the market, but I did get it on others.
What used to work for the market, set your language in the phone settings. Not market settings, the phone. I set mine to English (United States) and I didn't get a FC on market since.
With other google apps, or other apps in general there are a couple a things you can try.
1. If you changed any permissions, i.e. disabled apps from loading on boot, turn them back on 1 at a time. When I disable Google Talk from loading.. I get FC's.
2. Try a clearing data/cache for the app and re-installing over the app... or clearing data/cache and uninstall... and re-install.
3. Have you changed your screen DPI? Below 190ish causes problems for me, like if I dial a number it FC's.
There is a couple more, I just got out of class and can't think of em for the life of me. I will post when it comes to me.
Hope this helps!

Thanks for the quick reply!
1) No permissions were changed.
2) I tried wiping davik/cache. As for the individual apps, the vast majority of the ones that are FCing are system apps; uninstalling isn't exactly an option unless I just remove them from the rom.
3) DPI hasn't been touched.

I would be willing to bet you have alot of apps installed and your datadata folder is full. There is a thread on rootzwiki on how to fix this if uninstalling or moving apps to sd is not an option for you.

[Q] HELP! GAPPS (market) not working after flash

Hi,
I am new to the forum and new to rooting/flashing mods as well. I have the AT&T version of the Galaxy S2. I just recently rooted and flashed the most recent CM9 nightly on my phone and everything worked great except a, what i hope to be, minor issue. When I first rebooted my phone after the flash, everything looked great but It was apparent my GAPPS zip had not installed correctly as I couldn't see my e-mail or the Play Store (obviously I'm needing to recover things). I re-flashed GAPPS, rebooted, and I saw the Play Store and my e-mail. My problem is when I opened the Play Store, it got stuck on the sign-in. It eventually signed in, I guess (my account has a check by it if I select "manage accounts"). SO, i'm signed in but nothing is loading. I cannot do any searches or retrieve apps. Baiscally, I can't use the Play Store. My phone works fine, otherwise, and it seems the rom flashed cleanly. I followed every instruction very carefully. Please help! I need to retrieve my backup from Titanium and use the market. Don't even have my wi-fi at this point! Thank you in advance if someone can respond quickly.
UPDATE: I think i have 4.0.3 gapps instead of 4.0.4 which is obviously my CM version..this is the entire problem? I just re-flashed *without* wiping data and I'm still getting the same problem. I have the check mark but it's not loading. Cannot turn on wifi. Now Market is not updating to Play Store. What is my problem? Sorry for so much detail.

IF YOU only want the google play (market) you can use this
full wipe and reflash with latest gapps.
latest gapps are always at goo-inside.me/gapps
Could also try clearing the app data in manage apps.
THANK YOU!

thank you very much...

Play Store Bugs

Hi everyone, this is my first post and I precise that I have done as many and accurates research for my problem, without answers (on both XDA Forum and Google). So this is my problem:
I have a Samsung Galaxy SII AT&T(obviously) and since a while, I am unable to download any applications from the market properly. This is how it happens:
-When I accept the terms and launch the download, it keeps on "Downloading" without starting properly and is cancelled after several minutes.
-When I accept the terms and launch the download, it keeps on "Downloading" during several minutes before starting.
-And some VERY RARE times the download starts automaticly just after hitting "Accept..."
I also noticed that when I try to download applications from the play store via the mobile network, all works fine but whenever I go back on the WiFi network, I face the same issue. I have also tried to flash different ROMS(JellyBean). My phone is also rooted.
Thank you for your consideration and help if possible.
Did you try to clear data from Google Play and Google Play Services?
Sent from my SGH-I777 using Tapatalk 2
Yes I did. And it seems that it's a problem with all Google's services:
-I can't watch any videos from on YouTube, same problem of infinite loading without starting.
It's not a problem of slow connection as I download ROMs and other stuf without major or significative network speed problem.
By the way, thank you for your care.
Wipe everything and do a fresh install.
This what I do each time by reflashing the same ROM or flashing others one.
-Wipe data/factory reset
-wipe cache partition
-format system(when asked)
-wipe dalvik cache
-Flash the rom (and latest gapps when necessary)
-Reboot system... set up my phone and restore user apps via Titanium Backup.
Also of course if you change your DPI to a non stock value or use inverted apps packages that can cause the issue. But in assuming you know that already so if that's not the issue i dunno what it could be.
No inverted apps neither non stock dpi since it happens even from MIUI roms to Shostock3 pasing by AOKP and CM ROMs. I'll try with a different WiFi later as I think it's a problem with my WiFi but it was working fine before those 4 weeks.
Edit: Problem solved! Looks like it was an issue from nowhere.. Anyway, Thank you all for your help, it's good to get one's updates back

[Q] Force closing process and apps

I've been getting systematic breakdown of my device whereby processes and apps will suddenly for no reason on their own be forced to stopped unexpectedly. So for example Google Framework, gapps, acore, play store then apps will be unable to start and force close immediately e.g. swype, titanium backup etc etc. Now this has happened on many different ROMs e.g. DSC, Longhorn, PCM7, Mokee and now even on the AOPK CM9. So it isn't down to a particular ROM as they always flash fine and my device runs fine otherwise.
A complete data wipe and re-flashing of a ROM always restores the phone to "normal" but I fear my device is dying. Has this happened to anyone else?
try installing different launcher...
Really? Why should that make a difference? They mostly have different launchers though.
It doesn't.
Does it do this without any of your apps added?

Well it's very hard to say that because it generally progresses in how bad it gets. I've had ROMs working fine for a week or so before they give up the ghost. I'd be inclined to say it maybe a dodgy app but I've had a huge range of different apps because my knowledge and ability with Android has come on since I first started with custom ROMs.
Bump.
After reboots, I lose data of all my apps so they're like they've just been installed, e.g. Whatsapp asking to verify my number etc. Also after a reboot none of my installed apps are in the launcher but in the settings they are listed under their process name (e.g. com.adobe.flashplayer) with a grey SD icon next to them. Multiple reboots and wiping of Dalvik haven't fixed this. So I really don't want to wipe data but looks like I will have to.
Furthermore, an app can be "restored" simply by re-installing it, the device says that I am replacing an already installed application.
This is a huge problem because the pins in the device's port are bent so I have to charge batteries externally.
I'd spend a little bit of time and attempt to straighten out those pins, as it will help. However, while I do believe wiping data at the very least is in order, I'd be more inclined to go with the full factory reset and start over.
Yeah always happen to me too..
Can you try to check via Recovery Mode and see if Cache partition is OK?
Because I always get that error if Cache partition (innersd5) crashed..
and to fix that I must disassemble DS and takeout the internal SD card and mount it to PC..
Then you can format the Cache partition to ext3 (the partition is small size around 230MB)
Hope this help you
