Hi,
since the last update to 5.0.1 I'm experiencing problems when running apps on the watch. For example the integrated stopwatch or the heart rate monitor. Both apps shortly appear but then disappear immediately. The screen is then kind of "locked" on the watch face and can be freed by using the hardware button.
I had this problem with a app I wrote myself, too. I saw that the app actually crashes after a while because the onStart/onStop functions are not called in the right order. This sounds like a serious bug to me which is not related to my app. It also does not happen with 4.4W2. Then I found that the internal apps show a very similar behaviour like I wrote above.
Resetting the device did not help.
Anyone else having this problem?
Same Behavior

Yes, I can confirm that I had the same problem yesterday. Uninstalled all third party watchfaces but no success. Then suddenly I saw a message on the watch that google play services crashed. After that the problem was gone and did not come back. I now the description does not really help, but it confirms at least that you are not the only one with that problem.

[Q] Random "Free Music" app appeared on my touchpad in place of Google Play Store
My Touchpad was charging today and I just went to check on it. I unlocked the device and sitting right where the Google Play Store app shortcut used to be on my homescreen was an app called "Free Music" and it had the old itunes icon. I accidentally clicked on it as I was trying to long press it and remove it from my homescreen. It launched the Google play store as if the real app shortcut was there. After I removed it from my homescreen I checked the app drawer and did not see the app.
I am running CM 9 Alpha 2. Has anyone else experienced this? Is there malware on my TP, or a Virus? Any help is appreciated. Thanks
Me too
I havent checked my touchpad with CM9A2, but my Acer Iconia with CM9-ported had this appear too.
I did not have this 3/8 afternoon, and had my tablet off yesterday night 3/8, and turned it on today 3/9, and it appeared shortly after.
Very strange and suspicious to have an itunes logo-ed shortcut "self-install"
Hope some more people can shed some insight into this.
Are we android user's getting hacked/compromised? (beyond what Google is already sucking off our tablets)
Whew
Okay, at least someone else had this happen. Now we just need to figure out what it is. Did you notice anything else funky? I couldn't find anything else that was weird, however I noticed this weird chinese app all the way in the bottom of my "All" apps list and I have since disabled it out of caution. Let me know if you have this app.
Did you just remove the app from the homescreen or open it also like I did? I really can't think of any app I installed that could have done this except one. This "watch TV" app, that I also uninstalled since just in case. I hope someone can explain this to us.
I just removed it from the homescreen (luckily did not click it to open by accident)
I dont have any Chinese/Foreign language apps on my All Apps.
I also dont have that "Watch TV" app.

I got a response from the Iconia forum, and I found my Pin to Pintrest App that allowed push installs. Do you have the same app?
Interesting
I don't have that app, but it could have been a different app that had the same type of air install thing. I uninstalled a bunch of apps that I didn't use that much, one of them might have had this feature enabled. Ill download that detector and see if any app on my tablet has that.
Thanks
Currently running unofficial CM13, but this issue has occurred on CM12.1 as well.
Every time I try to download the app, the actual download completes but the notification "Installing Facebook" just sits there forever. When I go back into the Play Store, the notification goes away, but the app isn't installed. It also causes any other downloads to lock up until a couple minutes have passed.
On CM12.1, it would download and install, but the installation process would take ~5 minutes.
I'm figuring it's probably an issue with the app itself, but I was just curious to see if anyone else is having this problem.
I face this problem quite often. Even updating the app is a hard task for me now. It either would take ages or doesn't install at all.
I don't know what could be the reason behind it but try keeping the play store window just as it is after touching the install button. It works for me at times. While the window is changed, it never installs.
Have the same. Installed FB lite.
same problem i have rooted stock rom. i thought that problem is due to download manager, my thread is also there at xda http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g-2014/help/change-stock-download-manager-t3252514
have the same problem, doesn't have an answer, but for me it became worse with CM13. on CM12(.1) it was just as you described, but now it slows down the whole phone, rendering it useless. I suspect it runs out ot memory.
Please post here, if someone has a solution

I think it's the app itself. Facebook probably hasn't optimized it for 6.0 yet.

It's not available in my country. Go USA, haha. Not really though.
Had the same problem. Downloaded the APK from APKMANIA and installed. It's working fine now.
Hope it helps!
I've had a similar problem, the issue was that I installed FB Messenger app before the Facebook app itself. Uninstalling both and then installing Facebook first, Messenger second fixed it for me.

They both seem to take a while to install. Probably because Facebook installs 300+ MB worth of data.
So I updated my z3 compact to 6.0.1.
Everything works fine except for one thing - switching between apps. Before I could switch between app and continue from where I was.
Now they are reloading. As if they are started anew.
For example if I am reading a long article in chrome and switch to facebook app and then back, page is reloaded and I end up at the beginning, meaning I have to scroll down, find where I stopped. Same with facebook, it is reloaded and I have to scroll through timeline or a group etc. This is just an example. It is the same with other apps too. Wasn't like that before.
Tried googling, tried checking settings - no luck. Am I missing some obvious setting or something? Does anyone else had this problem? It is really annoying.
Thanks for help.
Another 'Marshmallow is broken' post .....yawn....
I am not saying it's broken. It works fine.
I am just looking for a way to sort out app reloading.
It might be some sort of app management, app disabling / killing when their are not used.
Maybe it's similar to Samsung spmc?
Have you tried asking your question in the Marshmallow thread? where people are interested in the latest broken firmware release.
This thread links to an app that is supposed to make things right again
Good day, this notif has just appeared to me recently and I do not know why. Whenever I download, whenever I update.
It prompts me, App incompatible with current system version. I do not know what triggered it but its annoying.
No it doesn't prohibit me fron using my app, yes I can still use my apps even if I update em. New downloaded apps works too. But that prompt is just annoying.
Could anyone help me regarding this as I have searched google and found answers / solutions that were not working for me.
Thanks
did u fix it bro>?
I'm having the same issue. It just started recently after resetting all app preferences in main settings. Nothing different other then the annoyance. Is there maybe a way to block the one particular notification?
Same issue here. Any fix?
same for me with my rooted phone. Is there a solution?
Whenever I play videos in my gallery and even just opening YouTube and TikTok apps, they all turn black and white. It goes back to normal when I stop playing the videos or when I exit the said apps. My other apps with videos on them are working fine... I tried checking the settings but all were the same, nothing changed. I tried searching online but all videos shown don't have the same problem as mine. I'm trying to describe them because I can't post a video..
Welcome to XDA
Which phone and Android version?
One of your 3rd party apps probably screwed up hidden user settings. Simply unistalling the app may not fix it. If you can find the app and the setting in that app that did this, that will fix it. It could be an app you already uninstalled, if so reinstall it and correct. Think hard as to when it started and what happened that might have caused it.
Possibly could be malware or the user data partition has been corrupted. Factory reset and be careful what you install.
Ditch Tiktok, it's malware. If you insist on using it login using your browser instead. Crapware can and does cause big headaches...
