Hey guys, Idk why but recently my phone is going crazy
I first noticed this a few months ago, I was playing Injustice and it kept pausing. At that time my internal memory was 75% full, so I thought that might be the problem so later I uninstalled the app
But recently all my other games and video streaming apps(Twitch ,YouTube etc) keeps pausing, my Album app is bugged (though the Movies app works fine), camera force closes. Even my keyboard acts buggy sometimes. I tried formatting my phone memory, still no effect.
I think it could be a virus but I tried Clean Master (I guess this isn't a good choice) and it shows nothing is wrong
So do you think it's a virus? If it is, what should I do and if not, any particular solutions?
Thanks in advance guys and I hope I posted this thread in the proper section

If you're rooted, try clearing the cache and dalvik cache. Or maybe reinstall the ROM, that's what I usually do when my phone starts acting up. It's annoying, but worth it. What ROM are you on BTW?

Well Actually I'm using the stock 4.3 ROM and I haven't even rooted my phone
I tried rooting it, but couldn't unlock the bootloader
You don't need to unlock the bootloader to root Try TowelRoot. My advice is to do a fresh install with Flashtool, with a non-carrier specific ROM (no bloatware). When I was on eXistenZ Ultra, my phone slowed down after a few days. I think this happened on the stock ROM too, it might be a bug.

I tried TowelRoot, it shows that my phone is rooted but when I use other apps to check my root status like Root Checker or Titanium Backup it shows "The phone isn't rooted"
Damn, I suck at this
Did you flash a superuser app after rooting?
You can check root with the app 'root check' (appstore)

Hi All,
I got the above error when trying to perform market update for following applications:
1) Fring
2) N1 Torch Light
However, I still have 55% left for my internal memory and 58% for my SD memory. The strange thing is I still can download and install new apps.
My phone is rooted with latest CyanogenMod installed. I think the problem only started today after I had done the below:
1) Download a "build.prop" and push to my phone
2) This item claims to improve the HSDPA speed
3) After installed and tested no different
4) Then I extracted the "build.prop" from Cyanogen zip file and push back to my phone
I'm not sure whether this problem is related to the above but my other function is working fine. I even tried to reboot my phone and still same problem :-(
Same problem here on both bakedgoods 1.1 and desire a16 just started happening today. Same apps as well.

Same issue happened to me. Solved it by uninstalling both fring and n1 torch and then installing the new version... Works after that...

Yours also happened to Fring and N1 torch? I just wonder will it happen to others apps as well (which needed to update too) and I don't think is a good idea to always need uninstall and install again
happening on 5.0.4.1 with torch. for kicks I uninstalled another app and tried to update torch again. no luck.
completely uninstalling torch and then installing the new version solved my problem.
There was no way I was out of space seeing as I have a 2gb partition on my sd card for apps

2gb?? Damn, man. Well, that's a definitive indication you're in NO WAY out of space (I hope). I've run into this problem too. An uninstall/reinstall always fixes it for me, as well. But the other day it happened with RDC by xtralogic. Now, that's no N1 Torch in terms of setup, so I just backed-up the currently installed (old) version via Titanium...then: Market>RDC>Uninstall>Reinstall>Titanium>Restore>RemoteDesktop>Data Only
Worked like a charm.
Mine just started doing this with Nimbuzz and Smart Keyboard Pro...
All I did was install a fresh CM 5.0.5.1 (Full wipe) and then did a Tittanium app backup..
EDIT Unistall / reinstall and all is fine...
Turn on the app2sd from the 'Settings - applications - apps2sd'

Yeah I got the error and for kicks, increased my partition from 512->2gb and still got the error
That error is misleading, it happens or certain apps only.
To update: uninstall and then install those apps.
Has anyone found a fix that doesn't require uninstalling and reinstalling the app? For the most part, that works fine, but for one of my games, I lose all my progress if I do this. I've tried backing the game up via Titanium backup, uninstalling, installing the new version, then restoring data only from Titanium, but that just seems to make the new version crash back to Launcher every time I try to start it. Starts just fine if I don't restore the data, but then I lose all my progress.
The game actually runs fine for me on the version I have installed, so I don't really need to update, but it gets a little old having the market constantly telling me that I should update it.

Back it up with titanium back up. Uninstall it. Reinstall from Market. Then use Titanium Backup to restore data only for that app.
Happening with the latest shake them all. Sadly, the 30 seconds I spent setting it up has to be repeated

As mentioned, I've tried that. For some reason, restoring the data from the previous version causes the new version to crash on start up every time.
This thread really helped me. Do we know if Google is looking into this problem/bug?
Turn on the app2sd from the 'Settings - applications - apps2sd'
I try it and now i can install App from Market. Thank you.

Try fixing permissions or uninstall with titanium pro and reinstall with play store
Also try wiping the data in titanium

Not an ICS issue... got my ICS LPY update over the air a while back, and have had no map problems since.
Easy, go to settings, applications, go to maps an click it, select delete data, try if still crashes. If it does, do delete data again, then uninstall and reinstall from play store. Test again, that should work

same problem
I have exactly the same problem. I have updated my Note from the latest gingerbread to the stock german ICS. After installation was completed I have noticed that Maps are constantly crashing. Google maps will locate my position and try to load map.. Everything is really choppy and after a while app will stop responding altogether and crash.
So.. at first I tough that it may be ICS ROM bug, so I have reverted back to the old ROM. I have wiped out user data,cash, etc.
I have also tried above mentioned method (posted by baz77) of uninstalling app, but nothing has changed.
I searched all over the internet, and found that there are more people suffering from this bug.
Any idea what's going on?? Thanks. I am becoming really desperate..
Fixed.
I followed Baz77's suggestion (adding a cache clear as well) and Maps is now working fine.
It worked, but only for a while. After I have uninstalled updates, removed app data, I was able to make it work. Everything was smooth but after about one minute scrolling became choppy and few second later app stopped responding and crashed. How is it possible that even different ROM didn't help? I tough that when I set "wipe data/factory reset", it would erase all stored system data..
Problem solved
Ok, so this thread can now be officially closed. I have once again uninstalled Maps and it's updates. Because I have done it so many times before, I have completely resigned and stopped wasting my time with it. My phone has run out of juice (guess why), so I left it on charger for several hours. After I have unplugged it, an update notification for Maps pops up. I sad OK to myself.. why not to try it once more.
And to my great surprise, IT WORKED this time. I have no idea WHY, but it just did. Maybe system needed some time to remove registry settings/kill process or something like that. I have restarted Note few times before with no success.
Or maybe Google has made some changes to update file in meantime, but that's unlikely.
Anyway..
Thanks everyone for help. Drinks are on me
AS the title says, phone has become really slow. Previously had no problems.
I did change the CPU settings in ROM management toolbox which seems to me to be the culprit, i changed it back but the phone is still really slow at loading app icons on homescreen and in app drawer.
I have reset permissions, scanned for viruses, cleared cache, etc. But still slow.
Anyone an idea what to do besides boot into recovery and resinstall Marvel? or is that really the best way????
Cheers in advance.

Did you want to try the Marvel 12 Beta?
http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=9390362690511177071
Install, do a factory reset, set the governor, and see if it does the trick.
I recommend installing the Xperia Launcher 2.05b. Hopefully Tantrums will be including this in v12 Final:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2103403
Your issue may also be related to a specific app you've installed. I ran into issues with a particular app after an automatic upgrade, and it took me a while to figure out the culprit. I contacted the developer and he was quick to fix the issue, but this stuff does happen. Many times you can figure out what's going on by reading the "1-star" reviews for your installed apps on the Play Store. I would message the developer if you find something.
Cheers.
I was thinking of installing v12, but thought id wait until it was officially released.
I guess i will uninstall all apps, to see if it makes a difference, then if not i guess i will reinstall v11 for now.
Actually, thats just too slow, i will ust reinstall v11 ROM.
Thanks.

If you are on Marvel11 and want to reinstall Marvel11 cause you want to change anything in the settings or just cause there did anything go wrong just reboot to recovery and start the Aroma install package of Marvel11 without any whippe at all, that's all, should fix everything.

Yea thats what i did. All was ok.
but then i started to clean up files on my phone. I think i deleted some files i should not have and now i have a phone that i cant enter into recovery mode. It just boots up and shows the coloured X from the X-peria bootloader (for some reason cos i didnt install it) asks for SIM unlock, which i do, but it only shows a handful of apps, standard ones i imagine, but no fast rebbot, or ROM toolbox, or CWM app. So then how do i now enter recovery??????
AHHHHHHHH!!!!! LOL
Ah i found a possible way out of this conundrum i found myself in i think
i had access to play store, so as i couldnt see ROM toolbox in apps, i redownloaded it so i could enter recovery mode.
So that i have done, now i just need to see what i have when the phone has rebooted, but i think that will have worked.
I think i must have deleted the data files or something when cleaning up the phone :/
Yea. looks like i have to reinstall all apps. No biggy then. Phew!!
Just a little reminder: If you use Windows 'adb reboot recovery' will do the trick too.

OK so now my process.com android.mms keeps closing on me, effectively i have no MMS.
Anyone a solution?
I have reset Darvik Cache and normal cache. Fixed permissions. Uninstalled the app through ROM toolbox, then reinstalled the ROM. Still no joy,MMS just will not run.
Ideas?
Or should i just install Marvel v12?

A fresh install with v12 Beta will take less time than you've already spent. Just have your additional apps (outside the Play Store) in a folder on the SD card.

Should i preform a factory reset as well? I ask because i am on Mac, so performing any procedures where i need to hook up the phone to a computer, although not impossible, is a bit of a task. Will installing Marvel v12 actually fix the issue in itself?????
I have actually installed Go SMS Pro and Handcent, which work in terms of being able to retrieve MMS, but it hasnt done anything to fix the stock/Optimus G MMS app.
Hehe, I should install Marvel 12 i know, I am just holding back a bit.

I do a full factory reset after any ROM install.
I use Go SMS too. I liked Pansi soooo much, but the last update continually crashes on my Marvel ICS.
Remind me please, if the full factory reset means i will need a PC to fix anything, or if i can perform a full factory reset and install either Marvel v11 or v12 without needing a computer?

You install the ROM, then you do the factory reset.
The factory reset returns things to a raw ROM state, getting rid of anything you've added since installing the ROM. So yes, it will wipe anything you download from the Play Store. I do it immediately after installing the ROM.
Put Marvel 12 Beta on the SD card (root directory), and any non-Play Store items you'd like to install in a folder on the card.

Hi
I got this app working once and once only for about 10 minutes, played around with it and exited the app. I now can't get it to work again no matter what I do.
I can confirm I am having this issue too on Jelly Bean 4.3, Samsung Galaxy S3 (I9300)! New phone, not rooted and no crap installed on it, It's driving me insane as I'm not a technophobe. I've tried clearing the cache, clearing data, uninstalling and reinstalling more than once, battery pulls, disabling Google+, wiping cache partition in recovery mode, moving app to SD card... ARGHH!

Hello xda!
I'm a new member and I thought you guys could know about the issues I have on my Z3 Compact.
After using my phone a little while, I decided to root it so I unlocked it's BL. Then I tried rooting but couldn't. Well I could root it but I didn't want Kit Kat so I used it without root but with UBL for a while. Then I decided to root it. I rooted it successfuly and now I am using Wajk's 5.1.1 Stock Slim Rom. Ever since unlocking my bootloader I'm having issues. I turn on my phone, use it for sometime, then I can't watch videos from YouTube app. It says "There was a problem while playing. Touch to retry.". When YouTube stops working, I noticed that I also can't record videos with the camera and I can not play videos from the storage of my phone (any video). It says "Can't playback video". Only fix I found for this is I hold the Power Button + Vol. Up button to wipe dalvik cache. After that problem goes away. But still, after a while, it does the same thing. Any ideas what it might be?
Appreciate every effort from now...

Not entirely sure why you would unlock your bootloader to root your phone. Have you tried re-locking it with the backup you made of the TA partition? That might fix your problem.
Another solution suggested is to go to settings\apps > Youtube > Force stop & Wipe data. Then restart your phone into recovery and wipe cache.
Have you tried re-installing flash? There is a youtube video that claims to fix it.
Have you tried enabling Use AwsomePlayer in the developer options.?
The video not working on your camera is broken bootloader symptoms. There is supposed to be a flashable fix but I don't know if it works or not.

First of all thank you for your reply. I've tried everything that you stated and it seems to be a lollipop issue. I wanted to try custom ROMs and such that was the reason for me to unlock my bootloader, also I didn't know you could get root without unlocking BL, so I had done it without a backup or anything . But since I started using 6.0.1 the problem disappeared. Thank you for your kind efforts.
