Hey is anyone else experiencing the pre-installed Pocket app force closing after setup? I tried the usual solutions I know of (wipe app cache reboot, wipe app data reboot, wipe both and reinstall), nothing works though, it keeps displaying "unfortunately pocket has stopped". Not rooted yet, any ideas how to fix?
Same here. I'm rooted, and made my SD card read / write. Still no joy.
OTA update fixed Pocket
OTA update received last night which fixed Pocket, phone feels a tad snappier as well after update, will post in a new thread regarding the update if I notice any issues.
Nevermind
Okay just a short while after using pocket and now it's force closing. Temporary workaround for me is just adding a browser shortcut to the home screen.

Hello,
I have Samsung Galaxy S 3 LTE (I9305) with Stock ROM 4.1.2 (I9305XXBME1) and since a couple of days ago, every time I update an existing app or install a new app trough Google Play or apk, the phone freezes right after the installaion is complete. It's strange that the arrows from the wifi icon are still blinking and the live wallpaper is moving, but it doesn't respond to any touches, and the only solution is restarting the phone by long pressing the power buton. Also the app I successfully installed.
I've rooted my phone with Framaroot app, and installed Superuser and ClockModRecovery.
I also have Lookout and Folder Organizer, which scan and set the new app to a folder after each install. I've uninstalled them believing they are the cause of my problems, but no luck solving the issue. I also checked the free space and I have 1.2GB free. I cleared the cache in recovery too but it didn't helped.
Does anyone have any ideeas how fix this this issue, beside a hard reset?
It would be very much appreciated.

Do a factory reset :good:
All fixed
I've retraced my steps and it seems a couple of apps didn't installed correctly (1tap cache cleaner & my font), before I've had this problem. When I open them, the phone would freeze. I've uninstalled them and the problem was fixed. I can install any app without my phone to freeze, including those 2 apps.
I know this topic has been around for a while, however, some of the suggested work-a-rounds are false....
Currently, I am battling the 'android.process.acore' stop error and none of the suggested fixes are solving the issue.
Here it is....
Verizon LG G2, running Android 5.0.2 (Lollipop) as an OTA update on April 3, 2015.
Since the upgrade the phone has been sluggish and glitchy no matter what apps I ran or uninstalled.
I did a Factory Data Reset this past weekend and now, I have the added bonus of 'Unfortunately, the process android.process.acore has stopped'.
Cache clearing, Data Reset and Force closing of contacts and contact storage do nothing.
Facebook is not installed.
PayPal is not installed.
I am not using the VZW Backup Assistant for my contacts, either.
The contact sync fix app from Google play did nothing.
It has been suggested that this is a problem Google is aware of, anyone agree?
As for my issue, I am left with no choice but to perform another FDR and then begin installing my apps one-by-one until something happens? Does not sound like a very productive suggestion to me.
The 'real' solution should not be replace the phone with a newer android device, should it.....??
Awaiting some feed back and hoping for some new ideas on this problem.
I'm running 5.1 stock. I've had the turbo for a while with no problems, but recently random apps keep crashing for no apparent reason. I haven't made any major changes to the phone or installed any new apps but it keeps doing this. Textra will crash to the contact list screen after 3-4 seconds of looking at a contact thread. Yik Yak will close to the home screen with no error message after a few seconds. Facebook will open to the logo and a blue screen as if it's trying to load something but then it just crashes to the homescreen. The camera won't open and will give a message "Unfortunately, Photos has stopped.". Not every app does this either - Reddit Sync works fine, Fenix is ok, Stock Messenger is ok, snapchat will act up on occasion, and everything else is OK. This happened once before and I did a factory reset and everything was working fine for 2 weeks until it just started happening again. I cleared my cache partition with no luck. Has anyone else experienced a problem like this or know a potential fix? I've searched everywhere and I can't find anyone experiencing the same problems and if they are the problems are so vague I'm not finding them. I'm running 5.1 stock.

I got the same problem yesterday, I kept getting the "sorry blank has stopped" box over and over. Now the phone seemed to be dead. A couple times during the day it just went black and wouldn't start without a hard reboot. This morning it is completely dead, I missed my alarm because the phone seems to be bricked. Never had any issues with it, I've had it for like 6-8 months. Guess it's dead?
Hopefully someone can help...
I finally received my OTA update to Oreo last week... all was good for a few days, then over the weekend it has been having constant issues with locking up, apps not responding and streaming issues. Top ones I can think of are:
Incoming calls do not display on lock screen and screen just goes black when I try to open
Facebook Messenger sometimes locking up the whole phone
When streaming a video file to Chromecast with AllCast, it keeps pausing until I activate the screen again
I wondered if it was to do with a compatibility issue with SwiftKey, so I switched back to Gboard, which seemed ok for a bit then it went on the fritz too! I've tried taking the SD card out and restarting, I've tried formatting the cache partition from the boot menu... still no joy.
Anyone got any idea what the issue could be and how to remedy?
After every os update its recommend to do factory reset.
Try factory reset and everything will be fine.
This might be the app itself but I didn't have any issue on my S20. Since I updated the phone it randomly cuts out. Any ideas? Never on WiFi though...

Is it when the screen is off? Check it's not been put to sleep in battery settings
it seems that latest ROM updates (I think I have this on all AUB* ones) is weirdly strict on background activities and cuts every one of them. my whole device acts strangely - apps not showing notification or showing them late (hours later than they were supposed to show), my apps are not updating: I have to repeatedly FC play store, then clear its cache so that currently installing app changes state from downloading to installing, than do it again to change state fomr installing to installed etc. worked fine on AUA* ones. it is really annoying. btw I tried to clear cache and dalvik/art cache from recovery, but that did not help. I have not tried factory seset yet...
It seems that it was data corruption during regular OTA. Factory reset seems to fix problems for me.
I'll try a reset.. thankyou
Let's be honest, the Spotify app has issues too begin with. On my S21 and Pixel 4 it can be playing songs to my earbuds then suddenly stop running in the background on its own! Unlock the phone and itis still open in the foreground.
Perhaps it's time for a new music app if this is a known Spotify issue... But if it's not a Spotify issue, then check in your battery settings (as others have mentioned) to see if your phone automatically started putting it into "Sleep Mode".
