(SOLVED!!!! -see second post below)
Hello my dad has a MT4G and he downloaded Seal App Locker from the Amazon Appstore (the paid version on it's free day). Well he never went to set it up, but now all of a sudden all his apps are locked & he can't access any of them!! -not even "Settings".
Every time he tries to open an app it says "wrong password: 3 tries left" and then a couple seconds later another screen pops up saying "Not logged in. You must be logged in to run this application".
I booted into Safe Mode, but after about 5 seconds it boots again & it boots into normal mode. It won't even give me enough time to go to "settings>applications".
Anybody have any suggestions?? Any help is appreciated. Thanks!!
Problem solved
SOLVED!!
After about 20 attempts, I was just barely able to go into Settings> Applications> Manage Applications> Seal> Uninstall and I got rid of that damn app before it automatically booted up on its own.
Had to move super fast, but it got rid of that damn app finally!!

Hey guys & gals, I have a problem. Not really sure when it started, but I found out a few days ago, when I tried to tap the "search" button in android market with no response. I the tried the (hard) search button, and found that no search whatsoever, neither widget (can't even bring up keyboard when tapped), hard- or touch buttons in any program worked.
I then tried to go to "search" in settings, and got "process android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly". I force close, but it keeps popping up every 1-2 seconds until I reboot.
Any suggestions or anyone experienced something like this?
I'm running smoki 0.7.8 (because I've been on vacation since before 0.8, probably not going to update until I get back in a few weeks), phone specs in my signature.
Tried:
Reboot (obviously)
Remove battery ~5 min, then reboot
Switch back to Danish SIM or boot without SIM (using a US SIM while on vacation, not that I can see how that should make any difference)
can supply logcat if needed (in a day or two, when I get to a computer)

I have been attempting to dl apps that I've been purchasing only to have to get a refund before my money is lost. Everytime I try to install the app it just says installing forever and never starts the download. The strange thing is this only happens with apps I purchase. Free apps download just fine.
Has this happened to anyone else if so has anyone fixed this?
I've had the exact same thing happen to me. I just waited a bit and eventually it started to download. Took mine maybe 20-30 minutes.
This has been happening to me as well. I hit buy, get an email about my purchase and then it hangs. If i hit back, the button still says "buy", after a couple minutes it changes to "install". It has happened to me a few times with free apps also.

try wlan on / off. i know this bug from my galaxy s.
This happens to me as well with free apps... I've found that whenever it happens to just exit out of the market & try again. Not the best solution, I know... but it's worked for me before. Gotta love those growing pains...
Could you guys please report this to the market? Happened to me and they're just like "hurr durr you're probably doing it wrong"
Anyway once it becomes a known issue I suppose we can expect them to fix it.
When I buy.
I tab [My Apps] in Android market. (I can see: Downloading then Instal).
But will not appear in notification bar (like reguler free application).
I bought my Nexus 7 (16GB) just a week ago. It's been working fine up until today. I have installed a couple of apps so far. Today I heard about a new app I wanted to search for so I clicked on the shopping bag icon to go to Google Play. A message popped up asking if it was ok to do an update so I clicked on "install now". It took just a couple minutes then the nexus shut off and restarted itself.
I returned to Google Play and after searching for the particular app (without success) I returned to the main screen and tapped on the one game I had installed - and am now addicted to - Flow Free. I got a pop up message that said, "Unfortunately, Flow Free has stopped" and it gives me the option to click on "report" or "ok". It had been working perfectly every day for the last week so I couldn't imagine why it wasn't working now.
The first couple of tries to open it I clicked on "ok" thinking that it might just be slow to respond but the app never opened. I tried turning off the nexus, waiting a few minutes then turning it back on hoping that a re-boot would fix the issue. It didn't. I still got the same message. I tried uninstalling the app then re-installing it. Same issue. I tried uninstalling it, turning off the nexus then turning it back on and re-installing. Same issue.
Since "report" was one of the options I clicked on that and sent a report. But I have no idea how that works. Does someone actually read these and respond or does it just go on a list of complaints people have that go ignored?
All the other apps I had previously installed still worked ok. I installed a couple more just to make sure they work and they do.
So my questions are: Was it the update that caused this particular app to stop working or was that just a coincidence? Is there anything else I can do to get this app to work again?
Hello. i have the s7 edge and it has a problem. ive rooted the phone and after doing so nothing happened (in a good way, i got root) about a week and a half later, the playstore wasn't opening (playstore kept on crashing no matter what i did), so i decided to restart my device. after doing so my phone was stuck on the t-mobile screen (boot loop) and i tried everything (inc wiped cache from recovery) but in the end i went into recovery and had to reset my entire device. today im haveing the same thing, apps crashing, and not just 1 app, its like google play, amazon, etc... from what i see, its the apps that came with the phone. (sometimes my phone app doesnt work(the one u use to call people with), like when someone calls me it crashes and i have to call them back manually). plz help me. if you would like a video on whats going on please ask for it. note im trying to back up my phone useing titanium backup but when i hit backup (the check at the top right) the app shows loading 1/3xx and then eaither opens another app (like weather) or takes me back to my home screen and when i open it --->back up <--- (no pun intended), its like nothing ever happened exept without a back up. fyi (for your information) dont tell me to reinstall it or something like that cause i cant. GOOGLE PLAY CRASHES AND I CANT OPEN IT!!! Thanks for all your help. and please help me asap cause i have places to go to, and... (GULP) school... i think we all know where im getting at.
did you ever*get any resolution for this problem?
So I finally got around to replacing My Knox with Secure Folder...well, trying to at least. Backed up MK, then installed SF from the Play Store and BOOM. SF crashes repeatedly when I try to open it. On the rare occasion it does launch, I can't get a password in because Samsung Keyboard keeps crashing (it's been a week and still nothing). Can't uninstall it, since the only option to do so is inside the app itself and I cannot get the password entered.
Then it got worse. TouchUX, Memo, Messages, Chrome, Settings, and many other services crash at random. Literally half the time I'm trying to use the phone, with no rhyme or reason, it gets stuck in an android.process.media or android.process.acore crash loop - I'm talking every 4 seconds I get the notification, for anywhere from 15 minutes to hours...it's pretty much unusable when it gets to that, everything still runs fine but it's not exactly practical to have to dismiss a popup every few seconds. I was using Nova Launcher and the GBoard, I outright deleted both and nothing has changed.
Oh, and I can't even connect to Smart Switch to try a backup and wipe because it insists the phone is locked even after I've disabled all locks in the security menu (swipe screen lock, no startup password, nothing). I'm seriously about to grab my maglite and smash this damned thing into itty bitty pieces, any help or insight is much appreciated!
ETA - software is stock, unrooted, latest OTA (QK4). I'm pretty technically competent; solutions at any skill level short of JTAG are welcome...
