[Q] "Devices has stopped" - Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I keep getting this notification (every few hours). Seems like devices is some system app (???). Is there a way to solve this?

Maybe you deleted or deactivated a system app. Go to settings, apps and reactivate.

I haven't. Funny thing is that it stopped showing those messages after a while... I wonder why...

[Q] Not all contacts get synced with 3.62.401.1 Update

Hi guys,
I usually connect my HTC One with my cars (BMW e91) Bluetooth and all my Google contacts get synced without any issues using Android 4.2. But when I run android 4.3 always the same contacts won't appear on my car. I tested with ARHD v. 30 and Maximus HD v. 21. Both show the exact same "issue".
Did Google changed something in Android 4.3?
All my contacts are stored in my contact's.

I figured out something very interesting. Only contacts which are linked with Facebook do no get synced to my car. Anybody with the same issue? Any ideas how to solve it?

Try HaxSync from playstore. It resloved this problem when I was on cyanogenmod

I have the same problem with my One and Opel / Vauxhall Insignia. With version 4.2, all contacts were transferred to the car phonebook. On version 4.3, only one or two contacts are transferred. The strange thing is, it's not the same contacts that are transferred, it seems quite random every time I start the car.
I can't see any logic between the contact types (Google contact, Facebook contact, with picture, without picture etc.).
In the call log, all phone numbers are transferred, but again, no names.
Any suggestions..?

Bumping this as it is relevant to me on Sense ROMs. I think it's an issue with the Sense bases as I don't have this problem on CM/AOSP. I'm curious if it began with 4.3 or if it started with Sense 5.5 though.
Hi. I found an interesting app in the playstore
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.android_rsap.irmc
Having this installed almost all contacts gets synced. Only a few numbers are still missing.

So I confirmed this an issue on the official AT&T 4.3 release so it's a 4.3 problem on HTC ROMs. It wasn't working properly on the developer edition 4.4 build either that I can remember. You'd think this stuff would pass QA.
Good find on that app. I don't feel I should have to pay for an app that fixes something that HTC broke.
Almost all contacts get synced? That means it still doesn't work 100%.
I'll see if I can remove the Facebook profile information manually as one of the contacts I verified didn't sync isn't even linked to Facebook.
Well all contacts get synced but some numbers are missing. Yeah feels weird paying extra money on an app for a software feature which should be standard on a phone worth 500 euro. But this app is definitely worth the money...cause now I can use my phone the way I want it.

Same prob here

Same problem here. Since 4.3 upgrade not all contacts are synchronised to either my car bluetooth or my motorcycle one. Also my motorcycle tries to connect but the phone prompts for the bluetooth passcode every time. It will not seem to remember it. Tried deleting all pairings etc but no change.
100% Working Solution
The solution for this is to move all your contacts to the sim card. Check the bluetooth settings on the CAR bluetooth to ensure it syncs data from the phone and the sim card.
Once you do that all the contacts will sync. I had the same issue and it took me 2 days (and a flat car battery) to work this out. I know it's not ideal but until it is fixed in a software release this is the only 100% work around i found without trying loads of different apps.
Well 4.4.2 broke the fix above. The only way I've found now is to use Bluetooth Phonebook app from the play store. Everything now works flawlessly as it should do.
Seems to work fine for me with 4.4.2. I have that app installed but pbap disabled in it and my contacts sync fine. Maybe I need to freeze or remove that app and try.

Ok when I froze it before connecting to my car, it's an issue again. The app is still needed in 4.4.2 Sense.

Troublesome apps

Over the last 3 days apps, specifically Facebook, Facebook Messenger, Samsung Internet and YouTube, won't function properly. They come up with pop-ups asking for a restart but they never do. An uninstall/reinstall from the Play store fixes the problem only to come back after some time. What's going on?

I noticed the same thing with YouTube. I thought it had to do with substratum theme. A complete reinstall fixed my issue as well.

This is for me a common Substratum Issue / Behavior, I've noticed this also under some LineageOS Devices.
As mentioned before a complete reinstall of the Substratum-Theme solves this in 99%, the other 1% is mostly solved by updating the Theme if an update is available.
Gesendet von meinem SM-N950F mit Tapatalk
I tried uninstalling my substratum theme but the problem persisted. It is mostly Facebook that's buggy now. I also forgot to mention YouTube but it's working at the moment. I'd really hate to have to hard reset coz I've gotten the phone to a point where I am really comfortable with it already.

I'm experiencing the same issue with WhatsApp. I've reinstalled the WhatsApp overlay, uninstalled the overlay and even completely reinstalled WhatsApp. It still crashes and asks me to 'restart WhatsApp'. The funny thing is that I'm still able to answer voice and video calls and I'm able to reply when a new notification pop ups. When I try to open the app it force closes itself.

APP settings will be forgotten

I have the problem with some APPs, some of the settings that I put in the APPS by itself back or not saved.
I have been using the APPs for a long time, even on other devices. I had never been able to observe the problem before.
Does anyone have an idea what this may be?
Thank you very much in advance
maybe after app update settings are resetting to defaults?
Forgotten setting without app update.
My exchange settings in the mail app (aqua mail) and in the phone setting are also forgotten, every time I restart the phone.
I couldn't understand why it happen...

It seems clear now. It was because I disabled background activity on some apps. Some apps have changed some settings in the app, especially the sync settings ..

Xperia ringtone playing on its own

So something very weird just happened to my phone: the Xperia ringtone suddenly started playing on its own, and would not stop.
Restarting the phone had no effect, and no apps were running.
Eventually I reset the app permissions and that seemed to work.
Anybody else experiencing this issue?
Edit: as I'm typing this, the ringtone started playing again.

and now my phone just randomly restarted itself...
is it possessed???
OK, so I've traced the culprit app to Tapatalk.
But even choosing no ringtone for the notifications STILL results in the ringtone playing on a loop.
Is there anything I can do to stop this, I really don't want to uninstall the app.

Sounds like there's a problem with the Tapatalk. Uninstall/reinstall might be helpful
