I went from MIUI to 2.3.5 Stock to Saurom, and since then I have been getting a tonne of force closes.
I get the LogsProvider force closing whenever I try to phone someone, or do anything with the contacts.
I also get the Phone process force closing every few minutes, knocking out my service, and not during anything in particular.
Would a factory reset fix this? or maybe a new flash?
I don't want to do either if it's something else. So please let me know if you've had the problem before.
Thanks
I backed up my data and did a factory reset, and then re-flashed.
I still get the force closes.
You have to use Odin/heimdall from an aosp ROM to a tw ROM.
Flash to stock THEN flash saurom and you should be good.
@studacris,
Yes sorry, I went MIUI -> 2.3.5 Stock -> Saurom
I guess that matters.
I didn't stay on 2.3.5 Stock long enough to see if there was a problem there.
is the logsprovider.apk and android.process FC? thats the known issue in the rom thread....and they have a work around in the rom's thread...
yes there is a fix in the 2nd or 3rd post . its jsut the logsproviser that causes all them problems
the apps
I don't know about the Phone FCing, but I had that problem initially as well with several other apps. Solved it by simply un-installing and reinstalling the apps themselves.

I rooted this cappy, and flashed darky's rom. A week later, got Launcher Pro fc issue. Was just gonna uninstall and reinstall LP, no biggie. But then TiBu started fc. Then I flashed back to stock and flashed the rom again this time with wipe.. When the phone booted up, multiple fc issues. So, I installed Serendipity rom...Two days later, all fc issues returned, cannot call, text, anything. Help please! I am going to flash back to stock for now.
Are your fc from start, or are you restoring first? When you go to stock, are you doing s master clear?
No master clear, just wipe then flash with CWM. Ive done 5 cappys the exact same way, this one seems to not want to play well....
Are you restoring any system data with Tibu? If so don't do that. Only restore user apps.
That's the only idea I have right now, hope it helps.
I am not restoring system data, thanks for the help.
Hey guys,
I'm brand new to this stuff, and I've searched the forums to the best of my abilities and I don't see a fix yet.
I just flashed the new Cognition ROM and used Titanium Backup to "restore all apps with data". During this process, it went through my apps one by one, and asked me if I wanted to install them or cancel and not install them. I picked and chose which apps I wanted to keep and which to discard. As an aside, the apps in question were things like games/puzzles for my kid to play with, and games and such that I had downloaded from the Market to try out but forgot to uninstall.
So, after everything was restored, I started to test stuff out, and everything works...except incoming calls. I get the "The process com.android.phone has stopped unexpectedly. please try again. force close"
Is there any fix for this besides going back to stock and retrying the new ROM? If there is a solution to this a link to the thread would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for posting this, I am having the same problem. Any help would be appreciated.
Also, what is the best way to go back to stock?

So I use ODIN to go back to completely stock and try the ROM again, but use the "restore missing apps with data" option?
You should click restore missing apps + data. That should fix it

Maybe I'm just picky or don't trust TiBu completely, but I always restore my apps individually. Never had a problem. I've been back and forth between Cognition and darkys ROMs and (of course) stock on my AT&T Cappy.
Yup restore back to stock... and if you had issues with doing a TiBu restore with "Apps and Data" I would recommend just using "Apps Only" option in TiBu.
BUT... I would test the ROM out before doing the restore to ensure it's not a ROM issue first.
If you do not wish to go back to stock, there were quite a few suggestions in the Cog 3.0x thread on this issue. A few people in that thread simply had a bad flash. One just needed to do a good solid reboot to fix it. Another suggestion was to clear the dalvik and cache using ClockWorkMod Recovery (red version). Lastly, lots of people FC'ing with the phone process were experiencing problems due to the ogg files in phone.apk being compressed when they should not be (reportedly) and was fixed by disabling the "Call Status Tone" in settings/call settings/all calls/call status tone. One of these could be your problem.
If you wish to just try again the simple way, it would probably be your best bet to Odin back to stock, do the master clear (it seems to be a topic of debate if this is the best thing to do, but it is mentioned in a few different tutorials), and flash again. Then TiBu to restore your apps+data (as mentioned... no system data, just app data) again.
If you wish to try to fix the problem, one place to start might be a fixed phone.apk in the Cog 3.0x thread in the Development section for Captivate. It is posted by Andrewk_77 somewhere between page 85 and 90, I think (sorry, I've been trying to keep up with the reading of that thread for days in order to head off any problems I may run into with Cog 3 and it's kinda blurring together). Otherwise you'll have to try to search out other solutions in that thread.
Edit:
Found that post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10685612&postcount=861
I know that they don't seem to be describing the exact same problem, but might be worth a shot.
I reflashed Cog 3.02, didn't use TiBu to restore anything, just set it up myself again. Phone works fine now.
Though I do have a question about flashing back to stock: would I just put the stock ROM (in this case Rogers 2.2) onto the SD, and flash it using CWM? Or do I need to use ODIN, in which case I would get the AT&T ROM? Thanks for helping a newbie out.
Hi All,
From last couple of days i am facing severe problem with my phone. It keeps rebooting all the time and once it reboots then i wont be able to use it for more than 10 mins/ 2- 3 functions...
It would suddenly pop up with "Sorry the TW launcher is not responding" and either i have to wait / force close.
I noticed one thing that this thing is happening after i had installed and uninstalled the Golauncher...
I am currently running on Froyo 2.2.
Kindly help me....
You could try using a different launcher like LauncherPro, ADW etc. Or if you have your eyes set on Touchwiz you could try wiping it's data in settings>Manage Applications>TWLauncher. Or if you are really desperate you could do a factory reset. And if it still doesn't work you'd have to consider installing a custom rom and hope it fixes it. Just some suggestions, good luck

Thanks for your suggestion, but i dont want to Factory reset my phone. Is there any other solution.
Actually now i am realising the problem is not only Launcher, but whichever application/ function i work on will hang and the phone reboots...
Hmm, it could be an app causing it since you say it has only began happening lately, maybe try uninstalling any new apps you've gotten? But if your not prepared to do this or factory reset there aren't any obvious solutions. Are you on a custom rom? If not are you on stock Froyo, Eclair or GB?

Thanks for your suggestion....
Hi all,
I've been unable to find a post about this for quite some time so I decided to make a threat about it.
I have a recurring problem with my captivate. Usually after about 2 weeks of using a ROM my phone will have 2 issues pop up simultaneously. They seem to always happen together. It seems to happen after my phone shuts off and will not turn back on until I battery pull. Once I do that I am presented with these two issues:
1.) When I try and toggle Wifi it attempts to then simply says "error" underneath it. I have found a few threads about this but no answers
2.) Upon installation OR restoration of any app with Titanium Backup my phone does a soft reboot (goes to spinning CM logo or for ICS goes to the multicolored squares flying around).
Edit: On the newest MIUI it now says "insufficient storage available" instead of rebooting when I try to install an app after the issues crop up, wifi "error" is still the same
I've had these same 2 issues occur with CM7 Stable, RC, and many nightlies, MIUI, and TeamHacksung's ICS build. I believe it may have happened with cognition too but am not positive.
I do not restore any data with TB. Before each flash I wipe system, cache, dalvik, and do factory reset and still this issue occurs without fail after about 2 weeks on any ROM and the only fix I have is to flash a new one.
Nandroid backups DO fix the problem. If anyone is willing to look through logs or something and see what was different I would be eternally grateful and certainly send you something through PayPal
Any help is greatly appreciated and I am willing to try anything at this point. Thanks!
Sorry for the double post,
Is there a better forum to post this in?

Nah this is the right place. That's a very strange problem you're having though, and I don't know what the exact solution is, if there even is one for this. The only thing I can suggest is going back to stock, and then reinstalling CM7 or whatever you want

Thanks,
Well happened again on newest MIUI. Gonna go back to stock and start over. I'll update the thread if it does or does not happen again.
Unfortunately after using Odin to go back to stock and rerooting/flashing it happened again on the most current build of MIUI. I'm currently at a loss for what to do. Has anyone heard of or seen anything like this?
Thanks in advance

Just curious, have you tried leaving it stock and seeing if it happens on a pure stock ROM? If so it could be a defect with the phone?
If you flash back to pure stock and the issue doesn't come back, maybe try a custom ROM that's closer to stock, not a CM or MIUI or ICS build. I haven't seen this issue, just trying to suggest some solutions.
I had this same problem with my fascinate. I flashed 1.10.21 MIUI follwed by glitch 13.1. This combination used to work, or so I thought. I flashed back to stock, 1.12.1 then a different package of glitch 13.1 and my wifi started working again. I know the captivates and fascinates are somewhat different, but try this out and see if it works.

I guess I could try that, I just like CM7/MIUI so much. Another thing that happens is many different applications start FCing after the problems all begin.
I tried to restore to a nandroid backup I had made before it happened this time and I received an MD5 mismatch which I believe happened last time I tried to restore...
New info:
I have not realized this before but it seems that I start getting a message that says, "Google Talk Authentication Failed", around the same time. Also FCs happen much more frequently. Is there anything I could be doing to cause this?
New Info
Just going to keep this updated with things I have tried in case anyone ever searches for this that has this issue:
Full format of SD card and odin back to stock did not prevent the issue from cropping up on the DarkKnight3 ROM with Icy Glitch. At this point I can only assume it is somehow hardware relatedl
I've got a GT-I9350, and I've been on RipperROM for a while, and I just flashed v20 onto my phone.
Now I can't receive any phone calls at all, the ringtone goes, but the screen goes black, then com.android.phone crashes.
Tried wiping my data, clearing google framework, all that, still doesn't work. I'm in desperate need of help this is killing me.
Try reflashing the rom or install your back up
Tried both, tried downloading a fresh version of RipperROM, wiped all my data, cache, dalvik, several times, fixed my permissions, and it's still crashing.

Don't know why I'm getting this and you're not, but I think it's a repeat of a known problem in the i9300 posted here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=33003918&postcount=2683
It doesn't happen if I haven't flashed JB Domination Theme btw.
In general I'm getting FC in almost every rom I flash. Really don't know why it's gone this bad. I switched from PA to RipperROM because my phone app started suddenly acting up.
Now since this post I've tried a few roms.
Flash PA -> get a crash trying to log on to google account (google framework FC)
Flash Sentinel -> ASOP Keyboard FC, can't write anything, back button doesn't work
Flash RipperROM -> I have a functional phone as long as I don't flash any themes, don't trust this to last at all
Should I go back to stock in odin and then root again?

There is a stock pre-rooted rom for odin.
Maybe try Slim Bean rom?
