Google Now Launcher Crash - Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

The Google Now Launcher, which arrived with the latest update to Google Search, generates a weird error with Cal app from Any.do. I had a Cal widget on my homescreen previously with GEL which worked perfectly without a hitch.

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
After upgrading to latest version of Google Search, if I tap anywhere in the Cal widget, the launcher hangs and crashes in a moment and restarts itself. Unfortunately, after the restart it becomes completely unusable, tapping on any app icon will immediately result in Google Search crash.
Pulling down the notification bar and tapping on Settings will result in systemui crash!
At this point, I didn't have much of a choice other than rebooting the device to get it back into working condition. But I also pulled the logcat out of my device before rebooting it.

Did anyone else experience similar problems with the Google Now Launcher? I replicated the same error on my Nexus 4 under similar conditions as well. I want to find out if this is a particular problem with Cal widget or a bug on Google Now Launcher.

Bump!
Can anyone replicate the issue on his/her devices?

Hi,
Same problem here and can't find any information too. Same high count on the same process.
I think it appeared since I updated Google search to the lastest version 3.4.
I'm running stock android 4.4.2 with semaphore kernel last version.
in relation to the sensors, live wallpapers and lock screen widget, facebook, i cant find a certain trigger

Hi and thanks for your answer.
I don't have live wallpaper or Facebook app so I tried to turn off the screen auto rotate and the high count and wakelock on this process stopped.
Hi,
OK, since I turned off auto rotate, the process count has been significantly reduced but wakelock is still here with 1h38min for statistics since 4h44.
I tried to delete widget on lockscreen too.
Anyone else have this problem?
Thanks.
It's something in your ROM, or an app that's waking your device. It's not kernel related for sure.

[Q] Getting Duplicate "Recommended Apps" and weird notification icon on VZW Note 3

[Q] Getting Duplicate "Recommended Apps" and weird notification icon on VZW Note 3
I'm getting this weird duplicate Recommended Apps notification when I plug in my earphones, and when I disconnect them, the notification stays there... Any ideas what could be causing this?
I can't figure out what's causing this. I'm running a Rooted/SafeStrapped Note 3 on KitKat 4.4.2 (JasmineRom). I thought the issue was with JasmineRom, so I went back to stock but it still happens there.
I have a bunch of Xposed modules installed, and have tried disabling them, but I'm not sure if they're causing it because it seems to be completely random, and goes away sometimes when I restart the phone.
Does anyone recognize the icon in the screenshot? I'm pretty sure that's what's causing it, but I'm not sure how to find WHAT it is.

Thanks for any input!
Solved.
It was Greenify. Using the lastest Greenify with "Keep Notifications" experimental feature caused this. After a while (random). This icon is the Greenify "keep notification" icon.
Yup Yup

Ads started appearing from status bar

Hi everyone,
Since a few days I have some troubles with ads appearing on the top right, under the clock. I did not install any new apps in this period and I can not find out from which app they are coming in order to get rid of them.
Attached is a screenshot of the add, any help would be much appreciated.
I forgot to mention that this morning when I woke up and wanted to unlock my phone, there was some 3rd party lockscreen which I did not installed. This appeared just once but the adds are appearing constantly.

found sth on other forum:
I found the culprit. I used the System2 app to track what applications were opening. The app called Multi Calculator had installed itself somehow and was causing the pop-up ads.

Thank you, I have searched but did not found this nor any other questionable app.
What is even more strange is that the adds stopped appearing without me doing anything. So the problem fixed itself.
maybe google scanned apps and removed it automatically

Mystery shortcut (or accidental feature) on my G4 Plus

Here's a nagging Android riddle I'd like to understand just out of curiosity, as opposed to researching an 'issue' that needs to be resolved. We all have better things to do (laundry, pull weeds, floss) than to make a case out of this post.
I'll ask anyway.
In my graphic the shortcut on the left shows normal behavior from the Settings widget in Oreo. The shortcut on the right, however, just showed up on the home screen out of nowhere. I'm clueless about how it got there and why it has color. Is anybody familiar with this?

I think it's a spyware from mobile-tracker-free.com . Coz I used it before and it comes as the name of WiFi in the settings to avoid attention of the user.

It's not spyware. But mystery solved. The peculiar green shortcut is an Oreo feature.
In my case it showed up by accident. Here's how it's done on purpose:
Long-press the Settings app icon until a pop-up box appears with a short list of widget items that can be dragged to the home screen. In my case there are only 3 options -- battery, data usage and wi-fi.
There are similar effects by long-pressing other apps like Gmail and Messages.

[Havoc v4.6] Note 4 SM-N910F - GPS problem - no position determination possible

Hi
On Sunday I flashed the "Havoc-OS-v4.6-20210727-trlte-Unofficial.zip" (Android 11.0) onto my Samsung Galaxy Note 4 LTE N910F and so far I am very happy with it.
Before I had the N4S-Rom v14.4 (Android 6.0) on it, everything worked perfectly. On the train I also made the new TWRP 3.6.0_9-0-trlte on it.
The only problem is that in the apps: Clever-tanken, WetterOnline, Wetter.com and also in Google Maps no location can be determined.
With all of the apps mentioned, I of course also checked that they had the authorization to access the location.
GPS is switched on, but it does not appear in the statusbar at the top, although I have activated it there. In the "GPS Test" app, however, the symbol is there. I tested it on the balcony, so there was a clear view of the sky.
Here are a few screenshots: The result of the "GPS test" and how it looks in the other apps:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Can you tell me what I can do there?
greeting
meggamoon
Can't really anyone help me there?
In my opinion there can be no hardware problem to blame, otherwise the "GPS test" wouldn't say that everything is OK, right?
There should either be something wrong in the settings or something ...?
I just installed the app "GPS Status & Toolbox", here you can also see that it should actually work, right?
