[How To] Fix acore and google services framework force close

Wipe data for Contacts Storage and Google Services Framework.
Really easy, this will fix either android.process.acore force closing or google.services.framework force closing.
WARNING!: This will wipe contacts. It seems acore fc's when there are corrupted contacts. Usually by restoring contacts on an incompatible ROM....
And will temporarily wipe market list. So backup your contacts!
Step by step:
Code:
0. Make sure Sync is off, leave it off for some time!
1. Go into settings
2. Select Applications
3. Select Manage Applications
4. (If you are on 2.2) Select the All tab
5. Scroll down until you find Contacts Storage (select it).
6. Wipe data+clear cache(If available)
7. Hit back
8. Scroll down until you find Google Services Framework (select it)
9. Wipe data+clear cache (if available)
10. Reboot and enjoy
11. (optional) Enable Sync again
Enable sync again when your convinced that the error has gone.
If this works for you, can you reply stating what ROM your on? (Eg, Stock 2.2, Cyanogenmod 5.08, MIUI 0.9.24, etc)
Or if it doesn't work for you, do the same thing?
Thanks guys!
NOTE:
It can be caused by corrupted database entiries in ANY of the syncs, Gmail, Calender, etc, but I've found contacts are the most likely culprits. This is a band-aid solution, if the problem is reappearing than there is probably something wrong with the source data being synced. Or an external application trying to do modifications (eg, a custom contacts application).
If you don't want to wipe all contacts:

It happened on my galaxy s too, when I viewed my contacts I got force close.
But after I tried many contacts backup tool on the market, I found that my contacts had 1 contact with no first name and no last name on it.
So I use contact removal from the market to remove that contact.
After that I got no force close again.
And my contact do not need to be wiped clean before.
Maybe this can resolved the contact error for some.
At least this worked on my galaxy s.

This solution will work in some cases but not for others. Read this guide for why the problem is happening and how to fix it: http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Google Mobile/thread?tid=23c329285968cd2e&hl=en
It is most likely a corrupted record on one of the services that you are syncing.
Good luck!

This fix at the very least works on the MIUI ROM. It may work on all ROMs, if someone starts getting this error, try this fix and report back

Well this does make sense. A corupt contanct. Ill add your story to the first post.
it's worked!
my phone is HD2 (use Mdeejay_FroYo_Matted_v._1.3_#15)
I'm a beginner in this field...
It worked perfectly! Thank you so much! God bless you!!!
I have an HTC Incredible , w/ MIUI ROM - 11.05
Ok... hope this doesn't sound like a dumb question... but does doing this delete the contacts from your phone or from the cloud?
Just local contacts off the phone
Cloud will remain unaffected
Can not iteract with GIU 'cause of the error
I have the same problem but as phone displays home screen he continues to show the error, so any action can be performed.
I have Droid Explorer but I do not kow where , manually, clean the folders!
May advice?
Many thanks!
works perfect to me as well.
I have a HD2 with android vers. 2.2.1

thnx a lot
greets
Just checking to see if the fix you are suggesting is for this kind of error message? I'm getting this on an HTC HD2 running Android.
Sorry!
The application Google Services Framework (process com.google.process.gapps) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.
Force close Report
Thanks

Happened out of nowhere. Everything was running fine. All I did was reboot to WinMo (not the first time either). Then when I booted back into Android it started FC'in all over the place. Market failed and I couldn't view my Contacts either. Speaking of which, it hasn't been updated either unless it was syncing or updating contact info in the background. Who knows...
Everything's working great... just had to give it some time to restore all the downloads and whatnot.

Just download the software update from the Amazon website, extract it, and pull the file(s) yourself.

thx bro,
i just download google + and gmail app form the store.
i don't know how, but that solve the problem
contacts just synced after installing g+, that's all g+ is autosyncing it after installation.
Also if you have yours contacts on sim go to
settings > import/export > import from sim card.
In case this is useful to anyone, you may have to click and unclick the box to the right of "Contacts Last synced x/xx/2014" to get all of your contacts imported to your phone. I had most of mine, but were missing a handful of (the more important ones), and couldn't figure out why they weren't showing up.
plz help me sir
Sir I want to know that cyanogenmod ROM is supported for my Micromax canvas juice a77 phone or not. Sir pls I want it for my phone. From where I can get it
