Unfortunately, contacts has stopped - Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've looked at other threads but I couldn't find anything useful. I'm running the latest CM11 M11 snapshot on an HD. I installed Google Voice and when I go to delete a contact, it crashes with the above error message. I've tried clearing the data and cache for the Contacts app and Contacts Storage under settings. I've also uninstalled Voice but the error still occurs. Any idea whats conflicting with what?

Update to latest build
It might be the problem of that particular build . So it is my suggestion to clean flash snapshot m11.

[Q] Gmail sync issue

I'm am running my Hero on CM7.0.2 (latest gapps) coming from RC4
The past week or so my gmail will sync properly. I can load and delete messages on my phone, but when I go to check my mail on my computer its as if I never read any messages or deleted any at all. I have tried using the force update in the gmail app but the problem still persists, I have also tried unchecking sync and rechecking it to no avail.
Is anyone having/had this problem, and what ways should I go about fixing this?
thanks in advance

I have had the same problem... I am on AOSP 2.3.3 3/26. I have had this problem on CM7 7.0
The past 2 days I've been seeing this as well. Saw it with 7.0 and since updating to 7.0.2. Gmail has also fc on me a couple times which I never have seen.
~maybe I set it too high...
There was a time when nandroiding would cause gmail sync to not work properly, delete wouldn't delete, send would get stuck in the outbox, the solution was to delete the gmail cache and data. Your accounts and sync settings are retained, but you just have to set up the gmail settings again.

I started having the same problem as the OP after a nandroid restore, this worked for me. Thanks!
I would have to delete gmail cache and data, as well as clearing dalvik cache for mine to start syncing. I have problems with it regularly after restoring a nandroid.
Same problem here, definitely due to nandroiding. Clearing cache and data fixes it.

[Q] Forced closes - 2

Android.process.media has stopped on boot up and also a similar message when trying to get into the cyanogenmod settings. I also noticed that wiping the system, data and cache did not truly erase all the original files and settings from the stock ROM. It connects to my wireless router without prompting for a password and also had my previous wallpaper, which I have since changed in case the file was too large and causing a problem. When I start up I have the following running automatically: Market process and service, Google services both a process and service, CMStats both a process and a service and Android Keyboard both a process and service. Is that correct? Who else is having these issues? BTW, I have 309MB of RAM free.
Tried this with the last stable CM, and nightly builds 85, 86 & 87. Same issues with all. Went into application data and cleared the cache. Cleared the cache isn the market app. Tried to reset permissions as well.
At the moment, I do not have an immediate for the CM settings, but I did install the overclocking file so I would like to try it at some point.
Also, I heard someone resolved the 1st FC by updating the market, but I can't see a way to do that other than reinstall, which I did.
Wiping the data doesn't delete original (stock) apps and settings from the ROM. It only erases and resets any apps or settings you've made personally. Sounds like you have all the correct services running at startup. I'm not really sure what's causing the FC issue. Do you have the newest version of Google Apps?
Have you tried fixing permissions via terminal emulator?

This reminds me that I recently noticed that "Contact Groups" were not properly sync'ed between Google Contacts and the Contacts on my phone. I went into Contacts on my phone and checked "Sync Data". Is that supposed to stay unchecked?
Of course, the Contacts app crashes before I can un-check the box, so I don't know how to fix that now.

Third step seems to have woked
I did the first 2 with not results the third seems to have worked. My samsung VZW i800 is working quite well now thank you. I have CM11.0 terrenceng... granted I still get the error "unfortunately gmail has stopped" and I'm working on that issue. In the meantime I'm using the email app to handle my Gmail. Thanks again.
I tried deleting Facebook, which worked for several days, but now the Acore Error back with a vengeance !!! I do not have the same hierarchy as listed below, so I cannot use the Method #2. I've already tried Method #3, but obviously that did not work. Oh well ..... so much for upgrading to Buggy KitKat ....
At least I'm getting a new phone tomorrow .... Hopefully it will be more stable, and if I'm lucky might even have JellyBean!!! I had NO problems with JellyBean for over three months. Big mistake upgrading to KitKat 4.4.2.

anyone using this room with skype experienced any problem?
using the latest skype, when try signing out, system will show "android.process.acore" after click ok, message pops up right away. Reboot won't help either. Only way getting rid of message is to clear the contact storage.
Fix the android.process.acore
I had this problem after removing a Google account from my phone that did contacts sync. During the removal, my phone crashed (nice job guys) and it clearly corrupted something..
I DID NOT NEED TO RESET MY PHONE TO FACTORY SETTINGS OR RE-FLASH ANY FIRMWARE, ETC
IMPORTANT: PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING PROCESS WILL DELETE ALL LOCALLY STORED CONTACTS FROM YOUR PHONE. BUT DON'T WORRY, YOU WILL BE ABLE TO RESTORE ANY CONTACTS THAT YOU REMOTELY SYNCED WITH AN ACCOUNT (SUCH AS A GOOGLE ACCOUNT).
I fixed my phone by going to:
1. Setting > Application Manager
2. Slide over to the "ALL" tab
3. Select the "Contacts Storage" application
4. Click the "Turn Off" button
5. Click the "Force Stop" button
6. Click the "Clear Cache" button
7. Click the "Clear Data" button
8. Uncheck the "Show Notifications" option
9. Click the "Turn On" button
This should immediately resolve your issue.
IF YOU PREVIOUSLY DISABLED CONTACTS SYNCING FOR ANY OF YOUR "ACCOUNTS", YOU SHOULD RE-ENABLE IT NOW TO GET YOUR CONTACTS BACK ON YOUR PHONE.
If you're using the Facebook app (com.facebook.katana) , especially the "dev" version, try freezing/disabling, then clearing data and cache in it, seems FB doesn't do much contacts sanitizing....

I had this issue with skype and resolved it by re enabling calendar storage in Titanium Backup. Maybe you got the same situation.

The best way to resolve this issue is
- Turn Off Sync
- Remove Your Google account account from your device
-Add your google account again
-Turn on sync
BOOM you are done now
U ROCK!!!
the second solution which is clearing the ''contacts storage'' data fixed it but the problem occurred when i uninstalled facebook actually it happened to me on my other phone ( ''Galaxy Note II'' to be exact ) just by logging out of my account in the facebook app so i had to factory reset the phone
i wonder why ? all my devices have official roms with no root
anyway thanks
I get this problem "Unforunately,android.process.acore has stopped".
I have stock rom. I have Xposed framework installed,is that the source of the problem?
Thanx in advance for helping me.
My device:Samsung Galaxy S Duos2
I used to get that error message many times. With my first Note 3, it finally got so bad that I could not use my Note 3 anymore. Samsung sent me a replacement Note 3, which I still have. I started getting that error again on my second Note 3. Had to do a Factory Reset, which seemed to fix the issue. However, now I'm getting a new error message that just started when I upgraded to Lollipop 5.0 >>> Touch Wiz suddenly quits. After about 15-20 seconds starts up again.
Hey all! If none of the above solutions are working for you (like in my case), then please try this solution I found that worked for me:
1. Uninstall the app that is causing the popups (this could be Facebook, OneNote, WhatsApp, Skype, etc...).
2. Disable Goolge+.
3. Reinstall app that was causing the popups (sign in, get it going).
4. Re-enable Google+ (I actually haven't cause I don't use it, but that's up to you).
It looks like 5.1 fix this, so hang in there!
I just got the Lollipop 5.0 Update for my Note 3 about a week ago. So far, seems to be running ok. I have a list of 11 issues with Lollipop, one which a Samsung Tech Support lady helped me fix (after many calls to tech support, with no help). Another issue I discovered the solution by myself (by accident), and one more issue I found the answer online after reading many articles, and watching many videos.
I have not seen this issue "android.process.acore" with the Lollipop 5.0 Update. Hoping to get another update to fix the remaining issues (Screenshot, Battery Drain, WiFi, RAM, Bluetooth, TouchWiz).

Yea, I tried everything else in this forum and on the web> Facebook uninstall, stop all contacts,calendar, google play related apps and clear data, delete google account, etc...
Have now cleared and uninstalled Skype, Airdroid, and mightytext since it seems to be a Google Contacts syncing issue. This still hasn\t helped. Will keep you all posted if I find the culprit.

[Q] ambiguous column name: account_name error in both CyanogenMod and Slim

Hello there,
Following an upgrade to CyanogenMod 11.0 M11 I've started encountering the error described in this thread. The error recurs in Slim 4.4.2. Downgrading produces a variety of other errors. This seems like a bug in the contacts provider of contemporary ROMs. Suggestions?
As the other poster noted the simplest solution is to flash CM 11.0 M10, restore a Contacts Storage backup (through Titanium Backup), ignore all other error messages that pop up (and for me there were plenty), and export your contacts as a .vcf file. Then you can flash M11 again, clear the Contacts Storage, restore your call log from XML (through Titanium Backup) and import your contacts from the .vcf file you just saved. Note that you may need to reflash GApps and clear the Dalvik cache in between ROM flashes.
It's cumbersome, it doesn't solve the underlying problem, but it's the quickest way to solve this. Caveat: You lose your contact groups, but if you have a "reasonable" number of contacts then you can always re-classify them.
Good luck!
This issue is tracked on https://jira.cyanogenmod.org/browse/CYAN-5584
It turns out that any upgrade to CM 11 will fail with the "ambiguous column name" error because, well, two tables have the same column name. Apply the patch from http://review.cyanogenmod.org/76352 to packages/providers/ContactsProvider, compile it and install it (system/priv-app/ContactsProvider.apk).
Or remove /data/data/com.android.providers.contacts/, but then you lose your call history too.

"Unfortunately, Documents has stopped."

Documents Storage Stops when Attempting to Attach File​
Disclosure: I'm running the latest Nightly of CM13 on my H811 (T-Mobile) LG G4
I'm posting this as a new General Thread, in case the issue's cause is related to a non-CM problem. Thanks in advance any Solution(s) / Ideas!
Symptom: Whenever I attempt to attach a picture file to a Tweet or Email, the system throws an error with the pop up message:
"Unfortunately, Documents has Stopped."
This is a repeatable, consistent failure. I have attempted to troubleshoot the problem by:
Clearing Dalvik Cache
Clearing General Cache
Reinstalling the Twitter App
During my research I found a thread where someone mentions "Resetting Permissions," but I have not found the steps necessary to do this. I'm looking forward to a solution that doesn't involve me completely wiping my phone (again) and reinstalling/configuring it!
Same problem with a Galaxy S6
I have this exact same problem. For me, it occurs whenever I attempt to attach a file from within the Chrome browser, particularly when using the Facebook mobile site. Clearing app caches and data sometimes fixes it temporarily, but not for long.

I found doing a bare metal reload of the latest versions of TWRP, CM13 & GApps has solved my attachment crash issues.
