My contacts app keeps crashing randomly. Anyone else facing this issue?
nope not facing that issue. did you use some sort of package disabler?
or installed other contacts or phone apps?
Same here. Can't make any calls via dialer cause Contacts app keeps crashing
Mine freezes as well. Randomly. At least one time a day (two-three max). Only rebooting the phone does help till next time. Tried to uninstall several programs I've been using with no luck. Samsung support suggested to restore to defaults. I'm using two sim cards simultaneously. I do like the phone, but crashing apps wasn't that I was truly looking for.
having the same issue. When receiving calls the icon flashes on the notifications bar but nothing on screen, no app takes over display. Speed dial, contacts and dialing caused all to crash but calls still go through apparently.

Anyone else having issues with people not hearing you the first 5 seconds after you pick up a call?
It sometimes takes about 5 seconds before someone on the other end hears me after I pick up a call. I am starting to believe it is the voice caller id app that I have installed but I am not positive about that. Anyone else having the same issue?
no...i dont have that issue...logic would say "remove the app" and see if you have the issue....
me too!
I have had the exact same issue. I have changed SIM with ATT. Swapped phones with Google/HTC. Master reset the phone. Uninstalled all apps and master reset the phone. Now, with no apps, just a naked phone, it appears to be working correctly. I am very frustrated. My smart phone only works correctly when it is dumbed down.
mine only has that problem in my apartment, where my signal is pretty crappy. otherwise, no issue
slowly adding back applications
The issue is independent of signal strength for me. I should mention that I am running stock/non rooted android ROM.
still adding. apps back
Continuing to add applications back 1 by 1 until the problem returned. At this point problem has not returned. I'm beginning to suspect a touchdown application. I think it is interfering with my contacts synchronization with my exchange server. The corruption of the contacts maybe causing the inbound calls to delay.
Ok lets say i am in yahoo (dowloaded offical app not the pre-installed at&t IM app). I will finish what i am doing in yahoo, leave it running and return to the HOME screen. A few minutes later (after receiving no messages) I wake up my phone & it is yahoo! It shold still be at the HOME screen as this is the last thing that was open before sleep mode. This also happens randomly with my text and call log. I will make a call and hang up. Phone times out in 15 seconds and is left on the home screen. I wake it up and my list of calls is on the display....this should NOT BE! Text messages show up after the wake up some times as well. Additionally I am on my 3rd captivate with a brand new sim card and I will be on the phone for 5 minutes in a COMPLETE singnal area and my call will not just "drop" it's almost like the entire phone app disables and I lose all signal for 10 seconds & it regains and the screen blanks out. What gives??!!! I am using task manager and I have the "phone" ignored as proccess that it should not auto-kill so I do not know! Any help with any of these issues will be appreciated!
I would uninstall task manager first to make sure it's not the problem. If its still happening keep uninstalling apps one at a time until you get back to the factory loadout.
My thinking is that if this is your third phone then it's most likely a software issue. I haven't seen anything around the forums about similar problems out of the door so I have to think its something you've modified or an app that is causing the issue.
The only alternative i can think of would be to start reading up on each app you've installed to see I'd they've been tested on the captivate.
Good luck

Anyone else have Skype open 24/7?
Are you having random freezing of the UI? Either not being able to bring the user interface to the front resulting in a black screen or while selecting contact from contact list, resulting in a frozen screen at the contact list.
Do the freezes occur often?
Does it happen on WiFi or 3G or both?
Does it freeze while driving and switching between cell towers?
When it is frozen, can you still receive calls and IM's, but not able to answer the call nor view the IM?
All of the above happens to me.
I'm on Galaxy Tab P1000T.
It happened on the Stock Froyo, Stock Gingerbread and now on Overcome Gingerbread.
The freezing happens up to 8-10 times a day, seemingly random but more often when I am moving between 3G cell towers. It also happens while on my WiFi at home, but less often (maybe 1-2 times a day).
I have tried reboots, having no other running apps, having only stock apps and skype, running all apps or a multitude of combination of apps.... nothing changes the fact that the Skype UI freezes on multiple occasions each day.
Help?
Seeing exact same behavior on Samsung Infuse - happens on wifi and 3/4G
Check to see if there is a skype update. It didnt freeze on me but i dont have it on 24/7. If its the latest version consider reinstalling. If problem still persists report to skype could be an issue with connection drops.
i have a similar problem, i'm not using the official app i'm using the pirate version to make calls over 3g, i leave it open, seems to be alive for 1 hour but then kind of goes to dead mode(logs off), if i click it takes me back to the login and automatically re-logins
i try to keep it open all day long, but it fails constantly, i dont get freezes like you say..
and what version of skype are you using?
I'm using the latest update from what market tells me (1.0.0.983).
Today it had been logging me out randomly instead of freezing, and that is even worse as I look offline.
All the while the skype app works fine on the iphone4 laying here. Annoying.
I'll try uninstall and reinstall.
Anyone else? Ideas? Comments? Solutions?
Thanks.
Hi guys,
I had a problem with whatsapp on the Galaxy Note which just had a crash and loses a day worth of messages. This happen to be the 2nd time in 3 month since I've updated the Note to JB..
Wondering if anyone may able to help on this? Does this problem related to JB ROM? Anyone experience this problem before?
Appreciate any help..
this is the problem of whats app not JB. update your whats app from play store as they have fixed force close and crash bug on JB.
I have updated the Whatsapp to the latest, but still have this problem..
My only problerm with whatsapp is that the notification alert din't shown on my screen (off screen mode), I noticed when I'm in the group the notification will not be shown till I manually open the whatsapp, noticed the message was sent out by 5 or 10 mins earlier. Sometimes a single message also din't show till I open up the program. Already did the unistall and reinstall the app. Any clue one how to resolve this?

Galaxy Note doesn't have notification light (off screen mode). If you meant by the pop-up notification alert, sometime it will delayed the notification. If you may want try to use wifi for the internet, because with 3G (I never tried 4G) may not have a stable internet. Not stable internet = delayed messages in Whatsapp..
ANOTHER way that I've tried for delayed messages, try to switch network mode to WCDMA only at Settings>More Settings>Mobile Networks>Network Mode.
Hope these (my experience) help..
Anyone has experience for the sudden Whatsapp crash and lost a day worth of messages?

well, my whats app is working fine after the update. You should uninstall whats app, delete odex file and whats app folder from your sd card/ext sd card and then reboot and wipe dalvik cache and then reinstall
So, over the last few weeks I've found that my P20 Pro vibrates for no (known reason), every now and again. Usually multiple times per day.
I've tried turning it off and back on, killing the apps, checking for updates, turning notifications off on most apps.
Has anyone had a similar problem and /or has any way of diagnosing or fixing it?
I have experienced the same thing, so you're not totally alone if that helps. I haven't found the cause yet either. I suspect it might be WiFi+ vibrating when the source switches back and forth so it'll happen in stints for me.
i have the same thing and i think i might found the reason, i have some muted WhatsApp chat groups and it seems like that every now and then when i get messages in these groups my phone vibrates although i muted them . There is no notification but a short vibration.
Another thing that bothers me more is when receiving an whats app message my phone vibrates once short and after that the way i set it up in the settings...
I begin to get it after an update. hope to see a solution soon.
No
I believe I've found the cause and solution to the Huawei mate 20 pro random vibrations.
I installed a notification logger from the play store and found that it was logging notifications of repetitive image downloads completing that lined up with every buzz.
If you go into settings, apps and choose to see system apps in the menu, you can force close the download and download manager apps. If you then clear the data and cache from each, you should find the phantom notifications stop.
I haven't had one in days now, and it was all the time.
I hope this is of help.
This happens to me a lot. Its mainly due to voice recognition thinking I'm am speaking to the phone. It happens randomly when watching TV, at work on even in the train. There's no specific key work that triggers it,. It happens at random. This is my issue with the random vibration but your could be a different reason although

Mine was definitely the download manager continuously redownloading Google photos images. Force stop, clear data, clear cache of the download and download manager system apps and mine has been fine now for a week. Try it!
Had the same issue months ago. Cleaning cache and data of stock download manager app solved it for me.
Mine started doing same yesterday ?
I have the mate 20 pro, and it's just started randomly vibrating with no notification
So my phone is now starting to randomly vibrate like bursts of short vibrations that last a while, but there's no notifications or anything? I don't know how to find the "download manager" to check if it's that. I'm not sure which apps to force stop. It's really annoying though.
Do you use Textra? Happened to my wife's s8 and she just uninstalled then reinstalled Textra to make the problem go away.
I have cleared the download manager and everything else several times, but it only works for few days even hours and starts again. I'm not sure if it activities itself again after I download something, but nevertheless, this just shouldn't happen. How can I disable download manager permanently (or preferably just the vibrations, as I assume DM is there for a reason)
Had the same issue. No problem from textra, for me it was google drive. I uninstalled it, cleared cahe and data and I am now using OneDrive. I haven't experienced any random vibrations since then.
Mate 20 X had similar issue after EMUI 9.1 upgrade and turned out to be contacts sync system app constantly trying to sync contacts. Force stop and cleared data and all good now.
I have the same issue on regular mate 20 since the last software update to EMUI 9.1.0. All the suggested solutions here did not resolve the issue. If someone has more suggestions please share
I fixed it. It's a system application called "Contacts Sync" disabling it solved the issue for me.
Settings > apps > show system processes > search for Contacts Sync > disable and force close it

This didnt work for me, but i found another solution. I stopped almost all apps from autostart. except email and messangers. that immediately solved the issue and the phone boots much faster as well, nice sideeffect
You need to go into battery usage and then click on the individual app, then app launch.
I hope that helps

I just noticed this on my mate 20x on 9.1 on vibrate mode. Did your solution permanently resolve this issue or do you have to do it multiple times or after restarts?

Yes it did. I force close it and disabled it from app settings. Never came back
