Calender Storage Problems - Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have been getting "calender storage stopped" error messages since updating to 5.0.1 on my Note 4.
Non stop. All day.
I'll get it at least 10 times a day.
Then my calender will be empty.
All my appointments will not show.
it'll be blank.
Then it'll resolve itself and start working again.
Then randomly turn off.
This is a major issue for me because I have 2 calenders. My personal and my work.
With it constantly killing itself, im not getting reminders.
I could miss meetings!!
I have tried clearing Data and Cache a million times.
Does not help.
I do have Calender Event Reminder installed. But I had this installed from previous OS version and didn't have issues.
I started getting issues the moment I upgraded to 5.0.1
Please help.

Unfortunately, S Health has stopped

So I had this lovely pop up on my phone last night. The message was "Unfortunately, S Health has stopped" along with the "OK" button. The kicker was that after clearing it, it would pop back up after a few seconds. I cleared the cache to no avail. I rebooted to just have it pop back up after it fully loaded all the apps. Battery pull rendered the same results.
My phone is all stock - with no crazy updates or recent app downloads that I could point to as potentially causing the issue.
I did find one resolution - I thought I'd mention it here in case others find themselves in this situation. Between clearing the pop up message - work your way to the Settings->Applications->Application Manager. From there - scroll down to S Health and once selected you can turn it off.
Now - I kind of liked having the pedometer - so I was trying to get it up and running again without doing a factor reset. I found that clearing the app data, deleting cache and uninstalling the update did the trick. I had to do it 2 times with reboots after clearing out all the data before it ultimately came back without issues. I had to recreate my profile again and historical data seems to have been lost.
I'm not sure if there might have been a better way to do it - but just thought I'd mention this issue here.

[Q] Serious Lag Issue With Everything

Hey everyone,
Context: I have a rooted stock 4.2.2 rom Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 3, but I don't think that matters.
Last week I started experiencing hangs, and stutters with various applications, it would just freeze for 1-3 seconds and start moving again.
Then notifications, especially download notifications started to persist after clearing.
Starting 3 days ago anything I downloaded would stop between 50% and 73% and wouldn't finish for 5-10 minutes. This also applied to any and all installations.
Starting yesterday, all data transfer and text messages, even anything over wifi is taking 5-10 minutes or more, and sometimes never comes unless I do a battery pull.
I tried installing Titanium Backup in hopes of being able to back up my phone, but it won't generate the popup to ask for root privileges.
I've tried clearing the data and cache on just about any app/process I thought could be causing this. I've also done a cache partition wipe, it did not help.
I'm thinking a factory reset is in order, but wanted to get a 2nd opinion as to whether there is any other fix.

unfortunately the process android.process.acore has stopped

Hi i rebooted my stock Note 3 the other day and once rebooted a message keeps flashing up every 3 seconds 'unfortunately the process android.process.acore has stopped' you can press OK then it appears again 3 seconds later, upon investigation it seems its a problem with the Contacts & Contacts Storage which you have to clear the data disable enable etc but my phone still got this message popping up making it virtually unusable, Please HELP ? ive read through other threads i could find and i really dont want to do the last resort of a Factory reset etc, thx

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
This happened to me twice after installing incompatible xposed mod. So I kept on pressing ok and uninstalled those mods and it worked.
SOLVED
After many hours of trying different things i found the problem, booted into safe mode and noticed that the message didn't appear which indicates that it must be a 3rd party app conflict, so looked back in the task manager under downloads, sorted by date installed to the date that the message first appeared, then uninstalled the apps from that day, then restarted phone and the message had, gone, so i installed the deleted apps one by one to find the offending app which was GRIDD 2 v1.3.1 strangely it had no obvious permissions that i could see.

Unfortunately, Contacts has stopped working

I woke up this morning and tried making a call so I hit the green dial app icon and instantly get the message:
'Unfortunately Contacts has stopped working.. and it closes it'
I am pretty IT savvy so I googled the heck out of the issue. Here are the things I have tried.
I started by going into Settings > Storage > Applications and cleared Data/Cache of several contacts related apps.
I disabled the Google + app completely.
I disabled all contacts syncing of all accounts and re-enabled.
I made sure all apps are fully updated, even though when the problem first started all apps were out of date. Additionally, firmware is fully updated.
Finally, I held volume up, power, and home button and wiped android cache partition.
Are there any other ideas? All of the Google posts I see are from this summer, I am wondering if this is a new issue in November that no one has a resolved yet.

Android 11 weird momentary popups

Hi folks,
I let my phone (6T, international version, completely stock never rooted), update to Android 11 this morning.
One thing is bugging me so far: at random times, I'll get brief flashes of some other window popping up momentarily (too fast for me to see what it is), and then it goes away. But it throws games into pause mode and takes me out of the flow.
What's causing this and how do I turn it off?
Welll this is not a normal behavior, so noone know why and how. Seems android 11 is not yet stable for us. I rolled back to android 10 on my 6T mclaren
Progress update: this problem seems to have resolved itself. I think it may have had to do with each app gradually settling in. A few reboots and some hours later the phone seems stable, though I'm having a few smaller issues like my phone icon left my home screen, I've now got TWO "Contacts" apps, and other minor stuff.
More update... the popups are back. I think they happen frequently after a reboot then settle down over time. I will keep an eye on it and report back anything I find in case it helps others.
Partial solution: I filmed what was going on in slow motion and despite my hand being in the way I saw the popup said "Gallery kee" presumably "Gallery Keeps Closing" or something like that. I don't use the Gallery app so I disabled it in Settings\Apps. Let's see if the problem keeps up. Maybe other apps are also contributing, and I'll have to address them one by one.
After a full day and another reboot for unrelated reasons, I can confirm that disabling the Gallery app fixed the problem. Not a single popup since I disabled it. Since I never use Gallery, only Google Photos, for me it's no loss. Probably a cache wipe would have sufficed as well. I did a a full cache wipe today to address a Gmail issue, and at some point I'll re-enable Gallery and see if the problem recurs despite the cache wipe.
