Once I updated my moto x to lollipop I started opening up apps and testing them and used the multitasking button to close out my apps and just decided to hit the button again even though I closed everything and an app was still there. I closed it and pressed the button and another app appeared so I closed and pressed one more time and another app was still open ! This one said something like at&t ext or something and then after closing that nothing showed up. Anyone else have this happen? I even rebooted a few times and tried again and it still happens. Weird.
I see it occasionally.

Happens to me all the time (Pure edition). It is usually only a few select apps that do it, though: Link Bubble, stock phone app, stock alarm app, Google app, and app uninstall screen. It is always showing the last thing I was doing before I closed it (the first time...). Strange, but not an issue on memory or battery (it appears).
I see it all the time with the Pure Edition.

I have no idea what's going on, but I tried accessing Google Play on my Note just now, only to find out that it has been uninstalled!? Before anyone asks...No, I did not install/uninstall anything from the last time I accessed Google Play (which was earlier today). All I know is that the app updated itself automatically the other day, and everything seemed fine. But now, it has somehow uninstalled itself automatically. WTF???
Am I nuts (could be a possibility ), or has this happened to anyone else too?? The weird part is that the 'Google Play' icon is still on my home screen, but when I press the application button in the bottom right corner, it's not there.
EDIT: I just rebooted my Note, and now the icon is gone in both places.
EDIT #2: This is flat out strange...the 'Play Books' app was still working, so I opened it up and pressed the icon to access Google Play. There was a long wait, but lo and behold, Google Play eventually opened up as mysteriously as it had disappeared! Very, very weird...
I don't know how in the world this happened (or why), but since the app has come back, I guess the problem pretty much solved itself. I'd delete this thread if I could, but since I can't I apologize for wasting everybody's time.
I noted something similar on another thread. I think the rollout was badly designed and poorly executed. Both my Note and my tablet had almost the same things as you describe, but in different ways on each, with no explanations.
Same here too. Just because the name is ****ty doesn't mean the rollout has to be too.

Last night I was at home and noticed my wifi wasn't on, so I used the quick settings in the shade to toggle it. After a few seconds, wifi connected, and some unknown app took focus and closed repeatedly. After a few moments, it stopped and all was well.
I thought it was strange, so I turned wifi back off and the same thing happened. I rebooted, tried again, and got the same result. I was trying to think of a way to see what was happening, so I tried using the Screen Record function in Gravity Box, which didn't help much, because it happens so fast, and no info is displayed, just a black window that goes away quickly.
I then turned on the CPU usage in Developer Options to see if anything consistently came to the top when toggling. I saw a few apps each time Plume (Twitter), and Maildroid (email) were two of them. Both of these apps behave differently on wifi and 3G/4G (push vs. pull), so thought -maybe- it could be something with that. I uninstalled both of those, rebooted and tried again, getting the same result.
I recorded the screen when this was happening with the CPU usage displayed, and was wondering if anyone has any ideas? I don't really want to uninstall and reinstall EVERY app on my phone, so I was hoping someone may have seen this before or see something I'm missing when watching it happen.

Thanks for any input anyone can offer!
Do you check virus from your phone ?
I am also having this, seems to be due to 4.4.2 OTA, which I continue to delay as I am rooted.
Mine doens't only happen with wifi change, but also just randomly when using hangouts, keyboard stays out but hangouts min -> maxes quickly. I have tried freezing the update apps but it apparently didn't do anything as I was still asked to update earlier.
Only hangouts? I have that app disabled.in the app settings.
I can't say for sure that being on 4.4.2 fixed it, but I am on 4.4.2 now and it is not happening anymore.
I unlocked my bootloader and did the 4.4.2 SBF, unlocked and rooted. I installed probably 99% of the same apps (only ditched 1-2 that I never used anymore) and I am not having the flashing issue anymore.
Hard to tell for certain if the pending OTA was the cause, but it may have been.
My S5 seems to be possessed. Its not rooted (cant anyway) no rom, have done absolutely nothing out of the ordinary to the phone other then install my normal apps from the play store.
Yet the phone is constantly, about 20x a day just going to the 'call logs' screen. I've rebooted the phone, logged in and with nothing open poof call logs. It seems to happen more when my fingers are hovering near but not touching the screen, is there some sort of air gesture for call logs that I dont know about ? Its never any other screen, its not like its accidentally hitting the 'back' button. It is starting to get a bit annoying ..
I notice mine opens apps "on its own". Not sure if its a gestures or hover thing or what. Usually gallery or phone, which are right next to each other on my home screen (all the way left). Must have something to do with it.

YES!!! My Rogers (SM-G900W8) does it too! I thought it was probably because I installed something, but, now that I see you have the issue !!
I posted this same question in the Q&A section regarding the call logs. Ultimately , I factory reset my phone. That fixed whatever the problem was. It was annoying the crap out of me.

I found the problem, it was my galaxy gear 2, every time it 'checked' my phone for new messages it would leave the phone on the call log. I turned off the option to open content on my phone from my gear and all is well now !
I have been experiencing this issue since upgrading to Lollipop on my S5. I too have a Galaxy Gear 2. I have just disabled 'Smart Relay' in the Gear App (which is what I presume you were referring to) and so far all seems good Thanks.
So, I successfully clear the cache, I even clear the storage data with Google service and play store etc, and the phone runs smoothly for a while.
Until some app are updated, the whole phone goes crazy again, especially my camera. If I launch the moto camera (not any other camera app) and turn it off. All my app in background would be shut down, such as bluelight filter, every time! I have to reboot my phone, to make it turn back to normal, but at certain point, the phone would go crazy again with that camera issue!
I guess it is the problem with the incompatibility of 5.0, and in fact some apps do! I uninstalled a lot of them, but the issue goes on. This is my second week with my brand new moto x, but everything so far make me love my first moto x deeper!
Anyone can help?

Check out this thread where we are discussing this issue. Seems to happen on KitKat too, and it seems to be a Motorola Camera issue. Download the Google Camera and use that in the meantime.

Thank you!
if I remember correctly, I have no problem with 4.4.4. The camera issue is that something stopped the twist launch first, than I have to launch it manually, but soon the camera shut down by itself, and all my apps crashed, and relaunch.
To close any of the recent and open app, i usually just slide up on the recent app and it will close. However, now i am unable to and will always need to "CLOSE APPS" which inevitably will close all my open apps.
Sporadically, i am able to whenever i restart the phone. But after a while, i am unable to.
Any way around this?

Yeah I've had this since the latest. 18 update :/ .
I'm going to completely factory reset the phone and see if it still occurs

Hi,
Would be really great if you can update us here on whether a factory reset will eliminate this strange phenomena forever.
Just sold off my Find X5 Pro. Hurhur.
