I have everything possible but the dialer app crashing and i am unable to add any contact. Dial option taking 2 sec pause after tapping calling option.
Try to clear Google Phone cache and data and do the same with Google Play Services. Uninstall Google Phone updates.

So I've had a friend's old Droid for a few months, and it's worked alright for the most part, but the other day it just decided to completely screw up.
As soon as I boot up these guys force close:
Amazon mp3 (multiple times)
google services framework
messaging
bluetooth share
gmail
google.process.
calendar storage
Other symptoms:
- I can make and receive calls, but neither I nor the other person can hear anything.
- I can't receive texts. Handscent lets me see the list of conversations, but if I try to view one it force closes. The stock messaging app instantly force closes.
- The phone won't recognize the SD card
- Trying to see the call log results in a force close for android.process.acore
- On the stock power management widget, the GPS button and the screen brightness button don't do anything. They highlight the borders like they're being pressed but the icon doesn't change... the rest of the buttons seem to work fine.
- I can change the screen brightness using the Quick Setting app, but as soon as I go to the home screen it goes back to full brightness.
- If I turn on wi-fi, it immediately turns back off again.
I've tried clearing the data and caches for Calendar, Calendar Storage, Contacts, Contacts storage, Gmail, and Google Services Framework multiple times, but it all seems to get reset upon rebooting, even if I turn off the auto-sync before I reboot, which also gets reset to on upon rebooting.
Android version 2.2.3
Baseband version C_01.43.01P
Kernel version
2.6.32.9-g68eeef5
[email protected] #1
Build number FRK76
Not rooted. I wouldn't mind starting over or maybe rooting, if only to get rid of the bloatware and get wireless tethering... I just want to save a bunch of texts I haven't backed up with Handscent. Oh, and that app will let me try to log in, but it says my login details are incorrect even though I can log in on their website.
Anyway, I'm beginning to think I have a trojan and some government is tracking me with undisableable GPS or my phone has been haunted.
Oh, and I might add, I didn't install any new apps or even change any settings before this started happening. Any thoughts?
I also listed which apps work or don't work, if that helps...
Doesn't work (Force closes):
AK notepad
Alarm clock xtreme free
Amazon mp3
browser
calendar
capital one
chargebar
digital clock widget
draw free (doesn't say force close, just closes)
dropbox
Facebook
Gmail
Goggles - took a while authenticating then force closed
Handscent - can see the message list but force closes on looking at one of them
messaging
play store - seems to force close after it accesses my credentials
Talk - doesn't ever sign in
Voice dialer - immediately says "please try again. You can also try restarting your phone."
Youtube - "There was a problem with the network response."
Works:
calculator
camera [[works but no sd card recognized]]
clock
car home
contacts
Easytether
Gallery
Gasbuddy
Gpad
Maps
Market
music [[works - doesn't seem to play anything though]]
news & weather [[works, but can't get any weather info]]
OI file manager
Quick settings
Stopwatch & Timer
Tweetdeck - I can tweet from it, force closes sometimes though. (Didn't before)
Voice recorder
Also, all the data for contact storage, calendar etc. reappears after I reboot the phone, even when my number has been programmed onto a different phone.
Reflash
Did you try reflashing your droid?
No, and I'm confident that would fix it, but that would erase the texts that I want to save.
Look for com.zegoggles.smssync in the Market, it backs up messages and call logs using your Google account. Once you're done, reflash (CM6 works great in Droid and Milestone), then reinstall the app and restore your messages. Good luck!
Hey guys, I need some instruction on how to file an official bug report upstream for the android team and what information captures I should include and how to retrieve those? I am including a description of the bug/problem here on the off chance that anyone knows of an existing fix or workaround.
PS. Stock unrooted locked encrypted google play store variant nexus 6 64GB midnight blue with the latest OTA updates and all apps up to date, no "user modifications" made....yet
I have set up hangouts & hangouts dialer as my default MMS/SMS client, and I have ticked use hangouts dialer for incoming calls in hangouts. My google voice number is the same as my sprint mobile number thanks to sprint google voice integration, I have disabled all forwarding phones in google voice options. When I get a call to my sprint number incoming hangouts dialer shows up alone and works perfect and unanswered calls go to google voice voicemail.
When I open chrome and click on a phone link I get the choose default popup that has the options to select "phone dialer or hangouts dialer" I select hangouts dialer and tap on "always", then I close chrome reopen it to a new phone link and tap the phone link and it again opens the choose default dialog even though I just set hangouts dialer as my permanent default a second ago, it continues to do this EACH time no matter how many times I set hangouts dialer as my default dialer. I have tried disabling google dialer in settings(defaults option for google dialer are greyed out), turning off mobile data & everything but WiFi (don't see how that should change anything, and it doesn't change anything).
So to sum it up I can not set hangouts dialer as my default dialer on a google play bought nexus 6 running stock everything latest updates all apps up to date. The default dialer selection " always" just does not seem to get set when always is selected. Me setting hangouts dialer to always is not remembered.
To make matters worse when I select hangouts dialer and tap "always" it opens hangouts one time and it DOES put the number into the dialer but it does NOT hit call or initiate the call, like the default dialer does with phone links.
Further, after attempting to set hangouts dialer as default "always" 20 times, when I do "OK google call xxxxxxxxxx" voice command it shows the blue google dialer logo there's nothing to tap on to change what dialer OK google opens and it opens it with the default google phone dialer, is there some trick to make a call using hangouts with OK google? Is the trigger word not "call"? I've tried ", hang out with" which seems unrecognized and a few others. This really effects me as have two android wear devices and I use hangouts as my primary SMS/MMS/phone dialer and when I make a call through a wear device it doesn't use hangouts and it doesn't show in my hang outs call history.
I have installed the google voice app and selected the options "view and play voice mail in the phone call dialog". (Most likely unrelated).
If anyone knows a fix or workaround for this I would be seriously thankful.
Any help on how to file a bug report with adequate information upstream and how to motivate the android team to fix this is also appreciated!
Thanks.

Also, when I swipe left to right from the lock screen to open the default dialer google dialer opens NOT hangouts dialer which I have tried so desperate 30 times to set as default.

Did you ever find a go-around for this? Any solution at all? FYI, this problem is NOT Nexus 6 specific. I have the EXACT same issues on the Moto X 2014. Must be an overall Hangouts Dialer Bug.
Anyone else have ideas for a go-around until Google fixes it?
My problem:
Whenever I use "Ok Google" or Moto's version of the same I get this pop-up saying
"To improve contact recognition, Google needs to use your device contacts."
when you press continue i get the error...
"Network error. Check your network connections and try again."
This happens no matter who i try to call or text. It even happens when I speak the entire phone number, and not just a name.
So, some background
I just got a Moto X 2nd gen. It immediately started updating to Lollipop (which was cool) so i don't know if this was an issue before.
I am on verizon.
I am using a stock ROM.
I have tried this on both mobile data and wifi.
I have immediatly after tried connecting to google play, gmail, random internet and they all work.
Other voice searches work. I can get "Ok Google" to navigate, open web pages, get weather, ect...
Searching online...
Reset Cache on Google Contact Sync app
Reset Cache on Google Now Launcher app
Reset Cache on Google Launcher Config app
Reset Cache on Google App
I have already reset phone once.
Update.
When I reset and don't tie into google account it works. Once I tie into a Google account to get contacts, it stops working. I think it is tied to the "google app" app. Turns out you can not roll the "google app" back to factory setting. Clearing its cache dose not work.
I had a similar issue with Google Now when I got the new Moto.
Apps > google settings ? search & now > now cards > delete card preferences
that took care of the that same error message for me.
You are the smartest man ever. Didn't occur to me that it would be the cards. Fixed.

Has anyone else been having issues with apps stopping on their XZ1C? I've been having trouble with Google Photos and Google Connectivity Services stopping a lot. I've tried the cache clearing and data clearing tricks as well as uninstalling and reinstalling Connectivity Services, but I routinely get the notification pop-up telling me one or the other has stopped or keeps stopping.
Photos seems to be stopping most when I use the app and especially when I try to share a photo via text or email from Photos itself. I don't have an issue if I send a MMS from Messenger.
Google Connectivity Services seems to stop the most when I use the GPS and am on LTE. It does occasionally stop when on WiFi or if going between WiFi and LTE. I question the benefits of even having that app if it stops more than anything. Perhaps it's just an issue with Oreo? I never had issues with apps stopping with my Pixel, but that was running Nougat.
Thanks.
Instagram does crash to me very often. I think they didn't optimized the app very well for Android 8
Edit. War robots just crashed too
I see it time to time too

My Google Photos app started behaving the same way immediately after I shared an album by way of SMS.
I cleared the cache, but that did not work. I reinstalled the app and the crashing stopped, but it has crashed once more the following day, but only one time.
How do you uninstall a core app like Photos? When I tap and hold, it does not give me to ability to uninstall it.
J-san, to the best of my knowledge you can't uninstall it, however if you long press on the app icon, and select App Info, you should be able to disable it. This will uninstall any updates to the app that have occurred since the phone was new.
Thanks much! I'll give that a try.
Nice, I thought I was the only one.
Current P10 firmware version vtr-l09 8.0.0.323 (654)
Sometime yesterday my ok google detection stopped working. I can side swipe to the left to get the google search page and manually start a search by pressing the mic key. I have gone through all my settings cleared cache, removed all data on the google app, text to speach (google) google play services, google play, with no success. When i reset the google assistant app and say ok google the app starts its setup proceedure asking questions for voice match etc after all done it asks for my pin to allow changes then closes. After this i can say ok google forever with no responce, again still being able to manually tap the mic to start a manual search that is spoken by me. access with voice match is greyed out as well as unlock with voice match. are others having this problem? Anyone have a solution? Thanks
Got the same problem. I have realised that when i've been driving a car today and tried to make a call. OK Google is not working anymore ;-(
Tried a few things, found that when I clear the cache, delete data on the Google app then uninstalled updates (reverting to previous version of the Google app) resolved the issue. I also disabled auto update for the Google app from the play store to stop it from re occurring. Huawei and Google can figure out the fix but this works for now
