Apps keep closing unexpectedly, not force closing. - Droid Incredible General

Android 2.2(leaked version)
Kernel 2.6.32 hydra ocov ov v10
Build 3.17.605.0 cl220374
With that said, when I'm using an app after a period of time, the app will close and I am brought back to the home screen. Its not a force close, it simply just goes to home screen. When I open the app back up, its as if I was never there. No data is saved at all. It seems to happen more with the browser than anything. Any ideas of Whats going on? Its very frustrating when I'm surfing the web and the browser keeps closing.

It's a known issue with overclocking too high. Knock it down some and your browser will stop closing.

I recently have had this issue. I tried rebooting the phone but it doesnt solve it. Mine actually goes to the home screen after a couple seconds when im in the people app.
verry annoying.
I recently had it rooted by a friend. Not sure of the specifics but I did a search and i cant seem to find anything on this unexpected default to the home screen except for this thread.

anyone?

Changing the VM heap size to 32m was the only thing that stopped the browser closing for me. It closed even when I first got the phone with unmodified sense 2.1 and 2.2. If you still have the issue at stock clock speed this worked for me.

Haven't understood a thing... I have this problem with my browser and musixmatch app... How can I fix it? I have lollipop custom rom installed :/

LauncherPro always hanged in 2.2

I tried different leak rom before,
and right now I am using official froyo
Every time after starting up the system, or after mounting the SD card,
when the media scanning is finished, launcherpro is not responding and hanging.
Anyone got the same thing?
I dont want to send email to the author if this is an only issue of me
I think another update is coming soon for lp. I sometimes get a lockup and fc in 2.1 with lp

I have the same thing, it's so annoying that I switched to Zeam. Hopefully a new update will come soon.
Same thing happens to me. I am running official Rogers Froto on my AT&T Captivate. I tried looking in the logs for something, but I couldn't find anything. Send a emails to the developer.
Yea I've tried like 20 roms.always locks up and force closes after reboot. Sometime it sits for like 5 mins before the fc message pops up. I have the plus version and running Axura 2.2.7.1 Voodoo.contacted tech support about it and he said that its my rom.can't be. tried 20 different Roms.pisses me off.

I have had this happen a couple of times as well. However, I have noticed that it only happens when I try to start opening things or moving between home screens before the media scanning has finished. If I let it do its thing, then it doesn't seem to hang ever. Still kind of annoying, and I don't know if that is the case with you all as well, but that seems to be what causes it on mine.

Nope because I always wait till the media scanner is done.but it still locks up and a fc message pops up.even let it sit for like 20 mins before but was still stuck until it errored out and fc again.they need to fix the dam bug.I even got the plus version.

LP runs fine for me, but I'm having a problem having it stick as the default launcher. Whenever I use Titanium Backup or long-press the home button, I'll get the prompt asking me which home application. There are a couple of other apps that result in the same problem, but I can't think of them off the top of my head. I've tried using Home Switcher to see if that fixes it, but no luck. I have the same problem with ADW EX.
This is happening to me as well.
If it locks up, try repeatedly hitting home, usually will give me a prompt to wait or fc. I never get this issue on my galaxy tab and it's running 2.2

Looks like there is enough evidence to show them launcher pro has some kind of problem in vibrant 2.2
This happens to me as well. Hold the hime button then go to task manager and kill lp.

When lp acts funny for me I hit the power button then unlock it and that usually works for me.
LauncherPro has worked great on my device with 2.2 (Nero V5) the only time I seem to notice anything is when the media scan is finishing its thing and there are to many apps running at start up in the background. I use advance task killer to kill the apps that do not need to be running and I never seem to have the problem again until I reboot. It doesn't seem to me to be a LauncherPro issue, media scan seems to bring the device to its knees until it is finished. Once my device is running smooth I never seem to have that issue again only after I reboot my device.
Love my Vibrant and LauncherPro Plus is far better then all the other Launchers I have tried (in my humble opinion) but each of us have different needs I guess. I actually use almost everyone of the widgets and can not wait for the update coming when the gmail widget will be added to the Launcher.
cheers

Yes this is what i do everytime after starting up...
But still so annoying and the should fix it.
So just to update on the topic I downloaded Launcher Pro again today and everything works well. No hanging after reboot and no other problem from what I've seen. You guys may want to give it a try.

I was using Nero5 and got the same problem FC alot in LauncherPro. I couldn't save the LP settings though. What seemed to fix it is removing LP and reinstall it. After that, things seem to work better and less FC with LP.
I'm using stock Froyo now with fresh LP install from the market, no FC so far. So I would say it's not LP always hanged in 2.2...but something is stuck or got carried over from previous installation/ROM. Just try remove it and reinstall LP again from Market, it should work better - at least for me, it did.

Same thing happens to mu phone on adw ex... when i turn my phone off and turn it back on, the screen goea blank, i can only see the notification bar scanning, but would hang on black screen then shuts off by itself.. that's with stock ka7.. now im on ka6 kies version and my phone is fine...
or maybe the cause was the lock screen? I used the pin code lock screen.. it could be it? Now im on ka6 official and with pattern lock screen, it seems fine... and i domt wanna try and use any other lock screen besides the pattern one. Ive done countless reflash because o this issue.. so no more flashing, lol.. but i could be wrong though, it could be something else that's causinrit, just speculating..
The only time I've experienced a FC of any kind on LPP, is when I had Colorize running with it. They don't play nice together. Other than that, it's been 100% stable for me with any rom.

Browser constantly force closes

My stock browser force closes CONSTANTLY. Doesnt matter how many apps I have open or how many reboots I do, it forces closes AT LEAST 50% of the time I use it - which is often. Any ideas?!

This has happened to me ever since I installed the flash app. This wasn't occurring on the leaked flash app I downloaded last week. You are not the only one. Facebook seems especially force close on me.
Anyone else having this issue?
i too have the same issue. a lot of force closes, but this was happening even when i had leaked flash.
seems like the browser is having a lot of issues.
force closing, clearing data, and deleting cache doesn't seem to fix it neither.
Very odd. I am running stock,locked with the leaked flash and I don't think I have ever had a FC.
posted from my Xoom. Using the thumbkeyboard.
stock, locked, and yes, force closes all the time. Facebook especially. I had the leaked Flash, but only use it on demand. I had switched over to Dolphin browser, but now that I have the released Flash I'll give it another go.
Do you folks have the Labs -> Quick Controls on? I noticed a lot more FCs after using that option.
change plugins to on demand in settings/advanced.Any plugin you want to load on the page just click the green down arrow
noticed the same thing. Probably why its still a lab feature.
I've been having the browser lock up, and I mean become non-responsive without even a force close. Only good way to recover is to reboot. And this started happening before I installed Flash.
Not sure what's going on, but it seemed to start after updating to 3.0.1.

No I do not use the Quick Controls but browser closes all the time.
I haven't had a single browser FC yet. If it is like the app FC, there is a report button. I hope that everyone that has a FC in the browser is using this? If it is a consistent FC, please post the website address here so others can verify and also report the FC. The more the merrier.

Funny.. browser has crashed, but no fc. Just off.. restated with no open tabs. Odd
That happens to me once in a while on weird websites like launching a twitpic url from Twitter. Launching it again worked fine.
Just buggy stuff I guess.
I have had the browser just crash to the home screen with no FC several times. This usually happens when I have activated the flash plug in on a web page for a few minutes.

Anyone else experience slow home screen rendering with GB?

I'm running the rooted, official version of GB on my DX (no rom) and whenever I exit out of an app and back to my home screen it takes like 5-10 seconds for my Agenda Widget to render. Annoying to say the least.
Anyone else having this issue? Is there a solution?
Edit: The more I think about it, the more I'm thinking this may be an ADW issue, which worked great on FROYO.
May have to check it out with LauncherPro to compare.
i'm on a non-rooted DX with OTA Gingerbread downloaded and I'm having issues with LauncherPro being slow and often times force closing on me. Maybe MotoBlur isn't playing well with other Homescreen apps?

I had the same issue... I noticed a severe lag and then eventual Force Close - Blank Screen situation using LauncherPro on a rooted DX after the Gingerbread update.
Is anyone else having issues with LP and Gingerbread too?
i went on launcherpro forums on their site and few people are having issues with the force closing as well after GB update. glad to know i'm not the only one having this issue. i've sent out errror reports through my phone so hopefully there'll be a quick bug fix for this.

My girlfriend had this issue too. I didn't update, since I'm waiting for a rootable OTA(which judging by the OP, there is one now?), and for the first 5 minutes, her phone was locking up because of Launcher Pro. I couldn't do anything, because any touch on the screen would then cause Launcher Pro to stop responding. Force quitting just gave her a blank screen. Luckily, after 2 battery pulls, it stopped force closing and seems to be working just fine now.
OP, can you point me in the direction for the root hack for the recent OTA?
I updated to GB via OTA and haven't had a single issue with my launcher or any of my apps freezing.
The stock motorblur launcher in GB occupies much more memory than it did in Froyo.
Could this be causing a contention for resources if you have multiple launchers installed?

I had issues with Launcher myself, but if you go in and tweak settings about how Launcher handles screens such as transition speeds and extra visual effects, you can speed it up quite a bit and I haven't had anymore force close issues (knock on wood)
Now to figure out the Gallery's issues. "sigh"
Just kept rebooting...
I just rebooted a few times (like 5 i think) anyway, that seemed to work fine as I have had no issues after that.. Def much 'smoother' with official GB... now i need gingerbr*** v1.30!!!! (to work with 2.3.3)
I notice when switching screens the brightness will tick up a bit after the animation. It's as if the animation stutters a bit. Turning it off makes the transistion instant, but the brightness still ticks up a bit when going backward on the menus or screens.

Browser Crashes

I have experienced some browser crashes in the past week, on multiple sites, and especially when visiting IGN.com. Its sort of a flash heavy site, but it still happens when I have Flash turned off.
Anyone else having problems with browser crashes? It has happened with both the stock Android Browser as well as Dolphin HD Browser.
yeah lot's of random crashing with default browser, I have installed every browser available but none offer the same as desktop experience. Browsing is (for me) the most disappointing thing about the tablet.
Happens to me quite often. Well happened. If you can live without JavaScript turn it off. Just enable it on sites that you really need. For me the sudden browser closures (not FCs) happend mainly on sites with JavaScripts.
Yes lots of crashes for me as well. I tend to have a lot of tabs open, and it is particularly annoying that there seems to be no way to automatically open up the same set of tabs (anyone know if there is a way to do this)...
same here, getting very tired of having to turn flash and java off to make browswer stable, hell if wanted this i would have bought a ipad2!
Much of the content on good sites is java & flash, for me its only been really bad the last 7 days. Come on android/ Asus, sort it please!

Just did that and both the stock browser and Dolphin HD work MUCH faster and no more FCs. Question--is the Java engine part of android, or is it in the browser? If it is in android, then I guess there is no point in trying other browsers.

holy, I've experience about 10 force closes. My browser doesn't even show the pop up force close notification, it just closes and returns me to my launcher -.-
same here ,really annoying..my nook colors stock browser on cm7 was alot better as well as flash support on it...hopefully soon it ll be adressed...
i just experienced this during the weekend. anyone contact ASUS about this?
this is surely a software issue which can easily be fixed (i hope)
Wow - glad I am not the only one. I really hope this issue gets fixed, its annoying to say the least!

Me too, hope they sort it soon.
I found that clearing my cache through the manage app settings helps me to load a page after a crash. It usually happens if I have over 25 MB worth of cache from previous browsing cessions.
I must be lucky... I've had no problems with my browser at all, I'm very pleased with it.
I Use Dolphin HD. Only Time my Browser Crashes is when My girl uses it and she gets on Tumblr. Weird..
Edit: Oh and it only happens after a While of use on that web Site.
Guys, I just turned off the fast scrolling in the advanced menu and it's stopped crashing. Can anyone else test?
so far so good. Crossing my fingers.

This is a google issue. Guys over at the xoom forum are having the same issue.
I find that rebooting the tf every other day helps cut down crashing and app fc's

ICS 4.03 - AppDrawer lag

Hi,
is anyone els having lags opening the ICS apprawer?
is there any chance to resolve this "problem"?
ICS realy feals smooth, except starting the appdrawer...
Yup - It's the only lag I experience, nothing I've tried has an effect including forcing 2D acceleration, limiting background processes, changing animation and transition timings and not keeping activities.
For me it's a slight stutter rather than lag, the app draw itself would load much better if the launch animation was turned off. I believe it's related to a bottleneck in the systems memory bus.
Yep! I've experienced lag on the App Drawer with every ROM I've tried for my NS4G. I'm starting to wonder if the NS can handle ICS properly.
Agreed. Its one of those things that really puts me off and i would REALLY want a fix for this
I had really bad lag on my i9023 until I did a factory reset, after that it's a different phone. Know of quite a few others that found the same so may be worth a try (if you haven't already that is)
Not many responses to this thread, but I can honestly say that I do not experience any app drawer lag at all. i9020T 4.0.3 stock/rooted.
i got too... with stock and alternative launcher, really annoying thing.. had a fade to black effect even when i close an app...
and I know is off topic... but why my phone has rotation disbled??? all check are flagged!! why why and why!!!
edit 2: rotation issue solved just rebooting.. how noob!!!
I definitely get the stutter.
I even went as far as giving the launcher process higher priority but it made no difference.
Specifically I tried
renice -15 `pgrep com.android.launcher`
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
I'm pretty sure it has to do with loading the widgets as they are connected to the apps in the new drawer. Cm9 has an option that disables the connection between the apps and widgets, solves 99% of the problem. Glad this thread was made as I was getting crucified by delusional members over this issue. Blind allegiance ftw I guess
Sent from my Full Android on Crespo using XDA App
Yes, CM9 launcher fixes the issue for me too as long as you tick to have widgets separated from main apps.

I did try factory reset, and after that ive done some testing, launcher still lag...no change...maybe at the begging i thought its better, but when you run for example browser than exit from it and press menu it lags again...
so i believe for people that have lag in launcher (like me) factory reset is not solution...
we will have to wait for community fix or google fix ...

I have the exact same issue. The closest I have gotten to getting rid of it is what I have now.
Peter Alfonso December 20 nightly with glad os 2.2 with lazy governor. Its almost completely gone.
And I completely wipe everything and restore manually EVERY TIME I install a new ROM .
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA App
I also do experience a small lag when I launch it the first time, but that doesn't bother me too much, to be honest. I'm having more of a lag when I want to return to the app drawer from an application, it takes a two or three to close it.
