OK I'll try to make this short and to the point. I had returned my previous N6 because of spilt screen freezing issues. This replacement I have came with build 47M on it. I booted it up and immediately got a couple popups of Google play store and Google service force closes. Not worried about it cause I was going to use NRT to unlock, root, and flash a rom. That was a mistake cause then it was a continuous flow of random force closes of anything I tried using (messenger, chrome, Google services, and etc). Redownloading and reflashing to no avail so want a rom issue like I thought. Used NRT to flash stock, unroot, and relock back to 47M and OTA up to 28E. Still getting force closes of Google services and play store and even constant closes of the play store without the force close gump (it just disappears). So my question is wtf is going on? The N6 I had screen issues with didn't have any force close issues. I'm at a loss and beginning to think that my replacement needs a replacement. Anyone know how to help? I would love to root again or even enjoy this beautiful phone without crazy force closes..... Thanks in advance guys/gals!
Edit: Now just seconds after posting this I went to download some previous installed apps from the play store then I got riddled with a constant gapps force close and the phone rebooted itself. Now I am waiting for andriod to start apps like it would if you upgraded the OS.......

Return it as defective.

Not sure if this is a phone problem or a google problem, but my Z1 is no longer showing up in the play store from the browser. I'm still able to use it on the phone, but it was just there 5 minutes ago and now no longer showing, even in the settings with my list of devices. I am stock rooted.
Earlier I was trying to force the OTA of the new walkman app earlier and cleared the data on the google services framework and update center. I'm guessing it had something to do with this.
Although the Snapdragon Battery Guru just finished its analysis this morning, but I doubt that had anything to do with it.
Any suggestions?

Did you use anything that may have modified how your device appears to the play store?? that could have done it, but it shouldn't disappear like that at all, could be a glitch, maybe clear data on play services and play store and reboot and hopefully it'll find it, google normally catches on pretty quickly so shouldn't take long to show up, also try a different browser.

Thanks. Back on!
Hi!
I have a XT1097 with 4.4.4 unrooted and with lock bootloader, so basically, I haven't touched the phone.
The first thing I did was to activate ART.
There are plenty of apps that are "forcing close" randomly. Some of them are "Spotlight" from Motorola (when I download some of the clips the app force closes and I have to open it again), Safer Taxi is another app, Amazon App is another.
I'm having this problems because I have activated ART? does anybody experiencing this kind of issues?
Cheers
I have the same phone and activated ART, the only thing I found that force closed for me was I sideloaded the lollipop keyboard, everything else seems to work although I don't use the apps you listed.
I've been running Lineage 13 for 6 months, but the phone mysteriously got into a boot loop yesterday, so I had clear the local data and re-install the apps from the Playstore
However I found that every time I installed the nRFToolbox app (by Nordic Semiconductors) (Who are a reputable company), that when the App installed, it crashed a load of internal OS services e.g. PlayServices and all sorts of Google services.
If I rebooted the phone it appeared to work OK, but if I went into the "Apps" in Settings, the phone hung again, and I had to reboot it.
I tried updating to the latest unofficial Lineage 13, but that didnt help, so I've now installed the official Lineage 14, and this seems to have solved the problem.
But I don't quite see how a single app can kill so many core services, and I prefer to stay on Android 6 (Lineage 13), because of XPosed and specifically XPrivacy.
(BTW. I know XPosed is now supposed to work on Android 7, but I didnt think XPrivacy will every get ported to work with the updated version of Xposed - at least according to the developer)
Does anyone have any insight into why this app can hang the phone
I don't know, why this APP makes your phone crash, but i had similar problems when installing greenifys latest app and two days ago, i updated some apps ending in bootloops.... I am using unofficial Lineage 13 with xposed and xprivacy too
I run stock OS but have this same issue when updating any big and heavy apps such as Snapchat, Google app and FB Messenger for the past 6 months at least. The app starts to update but then will crash in the installing phase often giving an error such as "503 can't be updated", at which point multiple Google services will crash endlessly the only way to stop the crash is hold down power to force the phone to reboot.
I have reset the phone several times but after setting up the phone and updating all the apps the first update to one of those apps the issue happens again (the app always installs from scratch ok it's only it's updates that cause it)
A sort of fix I have been using (because it doesn't 100% always work) is when you see an update for the app you know will cause the crash first update all the other apps manually leaving only the problem app, then close all apps go to Settings > Storage & USB > Internal storage and clear the Cached data, then power cycle the phone, let the phone boot and complete all it's background tasks it does after booting, then open Play Store and click Update on the offending app then put the phone down and leave it until the app either updates or causes the crashes. If this doesn't work then waiting 24 hours and doing the same steps seems to work.
I am certain it comes from either an app update (probably from Play services or the Play Store app) or maybe from having the phone encrypted which does make the phone run slower especially over time. (May or may not be related but I've noticed on my phone if I factory reset it then after setting it up and updating all the apps I try to encrypt the phone the phone will 'break' and will boot loop forcing a reset from the boot loader, however if I set up the phone, don't update any apps then encrypt it completes successfully, all the apps will then update ok and the phone then functions as you would expect)
All in all this issue is incredibly frustrating!
Just got my 9T Pro, everything seems to be fine, all working well and have received a couple of system updates since I received it. There is one strange thing with Netflix. If I go into PlayStore and check for updates it indicates that there is an update for Netflix but it's only 2.9 MB large. If I click on the update it seems to download something but nothing installs and it goes back to indicating there is a Netflix update. If I close out completely from PlayStore and go back in, the first time I check for updates it says there are none. If I refresh, then the 2.9MB update appears again. I've also done a delete and re-install but no effect, problem comes back.
The version of Netflix that is installed is Version 7.40.0 build 20 34657. In addition, it seems to work fine.
It's not a big deal, cause Netflix works but I've never seen this behaviour before.
Any ideas or thoughts?
The problem with NetFlix went away, all was fine for a few weeks and now I get a 77kb download for Instagram that never installs. Just keeps failing. Any ideas as to how to fix this? I've restarted but nothing.
It is a Play Store bug that causes to loop some apps' updates. Try cleaning app cache but it will go away after few weeks.
I have been experiencing a problem with my X4 lately. Suddenly, Google Apps such as Youtube, Google Chrome, Youtube Music, Play Store, even GMAIL started to crash. Out of the blue, they just close, sometimes they close and report that "app x stopped working", and often "Google Play Services stopped working" and this pretty much makes the cellphone unusable, the apps won't open anymore, not even a reboot would solve it. Sometimes apps as Facebook, Instagram, the Native Camera, even SETTINGS will crash. Following this crashes, sometimes the cellphone will just shut off the display and crash, only coming back after a forced reboot (BUT, as strange as it may seem, the long press on the power button works just fine and the display wakes but only showing shut off and reboot options).
I was experiencing this problem with the stock Android 9 ROM. I then removed my google account, wiped it, did a factory reset for a couple times, did not work. I flashed the stock ROM, but the problems only got worse. Then i flashed the Pixel Experience w/ Android 10 using the latest TWRP, same problems happened, with a clean installation, wiped everything. I used it for a couple of months, but the crashes were just increasing over time.
I then installed the Lineage OS 18.1 on Android 11 on my X4; Same thing, clean installation, wiped everything, removed all Google Accounts, flashed the latest GAPPS. Boy oh boy, it was smooth like butter on the beginning (i recommend this ROM very much), one week goes by and the same crashes come back again, every once in a while. I just can't figure what could be causing the crashes, same issues with 4 different roms!
If anyone please has experienced this or know how could i fix it, it would help me very much. Thank y'all for your attention.
Next time it happens i will try and take a screenshot to post here.
Did you ever get a solution to this? I am having the same issue.
