Force close and network errors

Hello,
I have recently begun to experience a major problem with my G1 running the latest builds of Cyanogenmod (currently 4.2.11 but I have had the problem with the last few versions). What happens is that for some reason some apps force close right when I attempt to start them (Google Voice, or any app that has a camera running when it opens) and other apps can not connect to the internet. When I open apps like Pandora or Wapedia it says "A network error occured" or "Could not connect to the servers."
The weirdest part is that not all apps are affected. I can still access the internet through the default browser, and the gmail app. Also the default camera and camcorder apps do not force close and work perfectly. In addition these problems do not arrise for some time after a reinstall.
I have wiped and reinstalled different versions and even started over flashing an HTC update and then returning to a cyanogenmod version. I have wiped all the partitions on my SD card for apps2SD and recreated them. However due to the nature of the problem I have guessed it is some problem with Apps2SD but I cant figure out what it is. I have run the fix_permissions script, and attempted to remove/rebuild the market/app cache.
If anyone knows anything about how to fix this or has experience this before themselves any help would be really awesome. If any more information is needed to help diagnose this problem I will gladly post it.
Thanks again and sorry for the wall of text.
Sorry for self-bumping my post but I would really like some help because I have done everything I know of to fix the problem and looked around the internet for help but I haven't found anything similar to my problem.
Thanks
Im having this problem too and i have no idea what to do about it lol

Spotify not recognizing internal storage anymore

For some strange reason, Spotify no longer seems to recognize my phone's internal storage. I'm unable to listen to the radio and the following error pops up: 'No SD Card Found: We found no place to store our data, please check that you have a working SD card and free space". This started occurring after I upgraded to Mike's ARHD 10 (and remained after I upgraded again to 10.1). I tried Googling the issue, but couldn't find a single instance of anyone facing a similar problem. I'm fairly certain the rom is not to blame since no one else mentioned anything related to this--plus, the rom has been awesome thus far (just like Mike's earlier versions). I tried fixing permissions, and even re-installing rom after performing a full wipe. I also should mention that after uninstalling then re-installing Spotify, the app seems to run fine for a little while--but the error will rear its ugly head again after I try to open the app again at a later time . Also, I am able to access my internal SD card without a problem via ES File Explorer and everything looks about right when I go to Settings > Storage.
Any help would be appreciated
I get the same message when trying to start Spotify on my stock Gnexus. All other apps using internal storage works fine.
I have now uninstalled and reinstalled Spotify and for now it works fine, but I have to download all offline lists again

Thanks for the response. I started to receive this error (fairly recently) when I installed or updated my current rom. I got tired of having to keep re-installing the Spotify app, so eventually I went into Settings and decided to 'Delete cache and saved data' for the heck of it. This might not exactly be a feasible option for those who have a paid subscription and actual saved data, but I have yet to receive the same error again. :highfive:

Same issue here on my S4 (found this thread through the Spotify community... funny how us XDA members always end up troubleshooting products, lol). I was on Slimbean and thought it was the rom. Restored my stock Nandroid and got the same error a few hours later. Apparently, this will happen again later. Just wanted to chime in with my experience.
Same on HTC One. Put Sentinel rom on over the weekend, re-downloaded all my playlists and it worked fine on Monday...this morning, get the SD card message.
I was looking at where all my space was last night since I put Sentinel on and there was about 1.5gb in a Spotify folder under sdcard/data...the folder has gone.
I will re-install Spotify and see what happens.

It's been my experience in my past two and a half years here at XDA that the developers of ROMs and homebrew usually find a solution before the actual app developers do. In this case, there was a thread in the spotify support forum. That led me here. *shrug* it's how we do.

I come to XDA to find workarounds but when I pay (subscribe to) for something I expect the devs to work on a solution, I think the people working at spotify would like to hear about your problem too, because you can help them but many other people would just give up on them...
I had a problem too and contacted them, they are friendly and responsive

I always go directly to them. And I did. However, posting in multiple places never hurts. if you read my original post, you would see I found this thread from the Spotify support threads.

Spotify has many issues with android and the sd card error problem,i personally read the spotify forums and there are hundreds if not thousands having the same error spotify really should get there act together and fix this after all it is a paid service and you should be getting what you pay for.
What i did was put a new sd card in formatted it using the phone and kept spotify out,everything worked fine,so my advice for now would be to avoid spotify at all costs as you lose everything thats on the card as well ,at least until they fix this bug,of which we are all having to pay for

[SOLVED] (I think) Problem with Google services

So i had posted before that I was having issues with my Google services. I was unable to get into Play Store, Gmail, Hangouts, anything that goes through a Google server. I tried wiping everything, force stopping, clearing cache, all the basic fixes. It worked again after I would flash a new ROM for a while. Nobody could figure it out. Samsung was stumped, AT&T was stumped, and a few guys on here were stumped. AT&T sent me a new phone and things were working great. Rooted, ROMd, everything. Went about using my phone as normal. Then, a couple days ago, the same thing started to happen.
A thought popped into my head today. On all ROMs I tried to use I always installed Freedom for free in-app purchases. I also installed it on this phone, but only on the custom ROM. I have been using the stock ROM perfectly. I went into Freedom and stopped it properly by pulling up the settings menu and hitting Stop. Then I uninstalled it. Straight away I went to Play Store and I had access again. Same for Gmail.
So my assumption is that Freedom caused the issue. It took a while because I havn't used Freedom in a month or so and the issue just started happening. However, once I removed it properly everything worked fine. When I wiped my old phone I never removed Freedom so i'm not sure if that messed something up that a basic factory reset couldn't fix. The other reason this is an assumption is because I was not able to test this on my old phone. But I figured I would let you guys know. If you have issues with Google services and have Freedom installed, try uninstalling it. But first, MAKE SURE YOU STOP IT FROM THE IN APP SETTINGS!

Pandora/Spotify skips/freezes after use of stock hotspot

Just posting this in case someone else is frustrated by the same issue. I was having occasional Pandora and Spotify skips, and both apps were occasionally freezing upon startup that required a reboot to fix (they'd play music, but controls not working, things acting all wonky, etc.). I finally narrowed it down to the use of the stock mobile hotspot (I have free tethering with my family plan, so never messed with that). I tried putting everything as much back to stock as possible, but nothing resolved the issues. I eventually flashed everything fresh, rerooted, reinstalled all user apps, and now Pandora and Spotify are working fine - no more freezing, and I believe this resolved most of the skips and hesitations I was experiencing. I'm not sure what caused the problem in the first place. The only thing I can think of is possibly installing the Xposed framework, which I have not yet done after the fresh flash. I did uninstall Xposed prior to flashing fresh, but that did not resolve the issue (but wondering if Xposed makes changes that aren't undone after uninstall). Anyway, just thought I would post about this since I searched a lot and never found anyone linking the use of mobile hotspot to these kind of Pandora and Spotify issues.

Updating android wear 2.0 apps

I have apps that i am trying to install from the watch and others that I would like to update and its stuck on "pending" with no download. Has anyone experienced this on their Gwatch R?
Yes. Had this problem since the 2.0 update weeks ago. I even factory reset it. Problem remains. I thought I could just uninstall then reinstall an app that refused to download it's update. Nope. Now the app won't reinstall. Very frustrating. Any help would be appreciated!
Experiencing this too. I resetted it once, then it started again. Found a few threads online of GWR owners with the same issue, someone solved it by disabling "ask for PIN" on the watch and "ask for password/fingerprint" on the phone, someone didn't.
I updated some apk (GPS, Android Wear, etc...) by downloading from apkmirror and installing them through adb, but this didn't fix the problem either. In logcat I can see some issues with an intent referring to the Play Store and one with some directories not being read.
This is so annoying. Is this an LG or Google issue? How do we petition help and they actually listen to us?
Me too!
I have this issue too!
I really hope a fix comes available soon!
Same issue here also GWR
Same here.. Any fix?
