A few weeks ago my Z4 announced Bluetooth Share had crashed. It took me about a minute to realize that the Bluetooth icon on the right side of the notification bar had disappeared and that my physical keyboard stopped working. It would recognize every other keystroke every few seconds.
Searching Google, I found answers dating back to 2014 recommending me to clear the app's cache.
That plus cold rebooting the tablet.
That worked perfectly fine until last night when I got the same problem.
Now I can't clear cache, I can only press Clear Data. Every time I warm reboot, the app remains crashed. And every time I cold reboot, Bluetooth works fine for about 90 seconds and then I get the same crash notification.
Any suggestions or recommendations?
I'd rather not wipe my device but I will if it has helped anyone before.
Also, when Bluetooth Share crashes, the onscreen keyboard stutters every few seconds. Both, the Xperia keyboard and the SwiftKey keyboard freeze every few keystrokes.

So an interesting thing happened.
I took out the SIM I have in the tablet because I thought it was the SD card.
Tablet reboots and now the Bluetooth Share app took about 20 minutes to crash.
I've read somewhere that for this type of error, I should to clear the entire device's cache and not the individual app.
There's the "Cached data" that you can find in the Settings > Apps.
I tried this; it went down from 1.91GB to 3.12MB.
I tried rebooting again by removing the SIM.
the Bluetooth Crash was almost immediate after the tablet finished booting.
I guess I'll try wiping the device tonight.

Has anyone encountered problems with the dialer?
I can punch in a phone # and press the green button to dial, but it doesn't dial immediately. There seems to be a lag sometimes of up to 30-60 seconds.
Also, sometimes I cannot hang up a call. I press the disconnect button and it just doesn't do anything.
phone app/dialer issue
hello,
i think that the same happened to me. the problem that I am having concerns the phone app on my razr. very, very often when I try dialing somebody, after hitting the the dial button, the screen where is shown a larger photo of the person that I am calling appears then it flashes and disappears (saying <call time 00:00>, something like when the call is terminated) then it reappears by itself after 2 or 3 seconds and the call continues smoothly. this is a very annoying problem, not being able to have control of my calls.
i don`n know what could have started this problem because everything was working fine, and still is apart from this issue. i`m not a skillful android user but i managed to root my phone (making all the necessary backups), then using some specific apps for rooted phones (like titanium, motomizer etc.) and every thing was OK. Lately i`ve installed a navigation program for android to my phone (iGO) but i`m not sure if by doing this, the problem appeared.
to solve this, i`ve tried everything: uninstalling all the suspected apps, factory reset, rolling back my system to a previous backup, updating my system version from 651.73.30.XXXXX.en.EU to 651.167.19.XXXXX.en.EU, cleaning the cache/dalvik cache. the problem still persists...
if you guys have any idea what could have caused this please guide me through a solution.
thanks!
Hello
I have my S3 since it was launched and worked perfectly until now.
Since 3 days it started to freeze, a very strange kind of "freeze". If have all off (wireless, 3G, sync etc) works perfect, no problems, any offline app works and games.
I turn on wireless or 3G, I go to google maps... after a while it freezes, I just turn on sync, after a while it freezes too... any internet activity after a while freezes the phone... it's impossible to use it, since it's freezing every time.
The freeze is strange, if it does while I am using the phone, the graphics are still on and working, the lights turn on when I touch the phone but no response, solution: reboot only.
If it freezes while I have the screen off, of course, it's like a brick... reboot also
I tried a hard reset, factory reset, changed rom, cleaned internal memory and hard reset and still the same problem.
Any possible solution without having to return the phone?

Hello all, I've noticed that my S3 gets considerably slow after a few days of not shutting it down. For example, after a reset, tapping home will immediately take me to the launcher, everything reacts immediately, there's absolutely no lag, however, after about 2 or 3 days, things start getting slow, the launcher needs to reload everything whenever I press home, apps don't seem to stay in the memory and have to reload as well. Like I mentioned, restarting the phone fixes everything, and I was even thinking of setting up a Tasker action to restart the phone ad midnight or so every one or two days, but I wanted to know if this could be because of a single app that's being faulty, or normal behavior. Any and all replies are appreciated!

thats normal behaviour on most android phones, unless u have 2gb of ram(still happens but takes longer)
its better if you reboot at least once a day

I posted this in the A500 forum as well, but it's probable that this is not a problem limited to my device, and it's also possible that there is a rom that might help me out.
I purchased my tablet on the day it came out, so it's long out of warranty. Everything has been fine with it until three nights ago.
I woke up in the morning to a crashed app alert. I don't get crashed apps often, but it does happen, so I hit ok. A few seconds later I was inundated with crashed app alerts. At that point, any app I opened would also crash immediately. Figuring a good reset would fix it, I turned it off...and it wouldn't turn back on.
I did finally get it to start by holding the volume up and power button.
But that didn't fix the problem. I've discovered that it is somewhat stable if I keep wifi off, but if wifi is on, within minutes everything starts to crash again.
I tried uninstalling some of the apps that crash, but when I restart, the apps are back. It doesn't matter what I uninstall, when I restart, it's back. Installed apps also disappear, the wallpaper resets...basically nothing I do sticks once I restart. I tried to factory reset using the button combination required for my device, and the screen gives the "erasing user data" message, but when it loads up, everything is just as I left it. I tried using the android os option to factory reset, but when I hit "erase everything", the button depresses, but nothing happens.
So obviously, I'm a bit perplexed.
I've never rooted it, and I ran an anti-virus scan a few hours before this all happened and it came up clean.
Anyone ever experienced this? Any advice? If no one has any ideas one how to fix it, is there a way to bypass the main os completely with a rom? I have absolutely no idea how those work, so it may be obvious that it won't, but I figured I'd check.
Thanks in advance! And thanks for reading this far, even if you have no advice!
Hey guys!
I've been experiencing some regular random restarts and app crashes. The phone restarts randomly with the Auto Restart Option being turned off and some of the apps crash and I get a notification that the app is experiencing multiple crashes. Then I go to the Device Care and I see that it says that a certain app has experienced multiple crashes. Some of the apps were the Camera App, GBoard, Settings, Google APP etc. Did not have any issues with the device until now. I have factory reset the phone and cleared the partiotion cache. Now the phone restarts randomly at least once a day but it still experiences the issue with the app crashes. Have you guys experienced something like this? I have researched the issue on the web but could not find any particular fixes. I do not think that this is a hardware issue as the phone charges (wired/wireless) and it does not restart randomly during charing. The device also connects to my pc with USB cable without problems as well. I also self checked everything in the Samsung Members app. Everything was working properly. Do you have any suggestitions or advise on how to fix that?
Many thanks!!!!!

I don't have a suggestion for an instant fix. But I suspect one of two possibilities:
1) One other non-Google app running in the background is the culprit.
You don't say whether you did a massive uninstall of apps. Either uninstall one at a time to see if there's improvement. Or all of them.
2) Something is corrupt in the metadata that came from your most recent Android OS patch. Best solution but the most effort would be to do a factory reset and introduce apps slowly over days.
Hi guys I just wanted to mention that something similar happened to my S21. And in my case, it was related to the way I charged my phone. So, I had this very long zoom meeting and my phone was dying so I plugged my phone to a USB port extender plugged to my laptop. My phone was charging super slow probably for an hour or two. After that the random shutting down started nonstop. I restarted, clean the phone app cache, nothing worked. I found the solution: Just properly charge your phone! So I just turned my phone off and plugged to my Anker fast charger and let it plugged until it hit the 85% (I have that option on to extend the battery life) And this fixed the problem . Hope it helps! https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B...5c-20&linkId=2fb4916d90c22865e74ea6be35805c09
