S note has stopped working!! Solution - Galaxy Note5 General

Hello Guys,
I don't know how known the problem and solution is. But I was seeing a lot of s note stopped working errors, so I went in sync, Samsung account and then turned off sync for sync s note. And I haven't seen that error again yet, I do think I will see it again but not as often I used to see.

Try clearing the cache.

It's not a wide-spread problem. He's right--clearing your cache should fix it without disabling legitimate features.

Thank you.
Tried that (clearing cache for s note), then as soon as I enabled sync it gave error, I guess I have disabled some application it needs. I am using package disabler pro. Any idea?

Damn, I wonder what's wrong with mine then.
I did a search and found someone saying that by clearing the "cache" that worked for them, I know how to clear Internet cache etc. however is there any other cache on an Android phone that I'm not aware of.

[Q] Gallery not working android 4.2.2

As a complete newby I hope I am doing this correctly. My problem is that since updating to android 4.2.2 I have noticed that Gallery is not working. I have also rooted my Nexus 7 so is it possible that this is the problem. Any help would be much appreciated.

OP, try a hard reset, this may help with the gallery npot opening
Does it show up under "All Apps"? I had a similar problem, and it was somehow disabled from there.. no idea why, but I just re enabled it.

You make it sound as if this is normal; it is not. Gallery works just fine.
Maybe the OP can specify the actual problem...

Yes it does show under all apps. Not quite sure what you mean by re enabled. If you mean touching it and placing it on the Home screen. I did that and it places it there but when I try to open it a window comes up saying "Unfortunately, Gallery has stopped". I have noticed that when I access the list of apps via "Settings" it is not listed, could this be the problem?

The problem is that when I try to open the Gallery it opens a message "Unfortunately Gallery has stopped". I have just noticed that I get the same message when I try to open the camera app.

Did you clear cache and data of Google+ AND Gallery itself ?
If you did then try remembering if you installed any new app(s) recently and uninstall them.

I cleared cache and data of Google+., but and this may be the problem Gallery is not listed in the Apps list under settings.
I have just rooted my Nexus 7 so I may have to go back to the beginning. Thanks for help though.:crying:

When you go to the Apps in the Settings SWIPE TWICE to the left for section ALL and then scroll down to the Gallery.

Thanks very much. That worked, which allowed me to clear the data and cache, but the same window appears even after completely shutting the device down and restarting. As I said earlier I think I will have to un-root the device and start again.

Perhaps you should look at logcat and see if it has anything of use in it. Perhaps you have a corrupt image, although I'd think the media scanner would just skip it.

Doesn't make much sense, but try installing Flipboard again;
Also check if are there any update related with google apps; :cyclops:
I would try to reinstall it all, and clean the cache and data of the related app and facebook too.
Good luck and let me know what happen. :good::fingers-crossed:

I'm pretty sure a factory reset will do it. You might just "dirty flash" your rom again, so you wont lose anything in the internal sd.

I helped someone regarding the same.
Go here: https://play.google.com/settings
See if your device's visibility status is checked.
For the other person that I helped, didn't had his device displaying there. So he did a complete factory reset and started over, and thereafter his device got enlisted.

Did you install Android Device Manager from the play store on your device? I believe this has to be on any of your devices first before it will show up on the website.

A user contacted me for the same issue. After he reflashed the stock firmware and logged his Google account into his device, the issue was resolved.
I am not sure if there is a particular cause for this, but it seems to be an issue only caused on firmwares shipped out-of-the-box.

Yeah the phone is listed on Google Play settings just not in ADM or the beta signup page. I have tried everything I can find online to fix it. Clear data for a bunch of services, disable then enable remote flash, reboot, etc. Nothing has worked and it is really pissing me off now. Such a simple thing that should just work but nope

Yeah those are some of the links I found also. Followed all the advice on how to fix it yet nothing seems to do the job.
I am tempted to flash an older stock image onto the phone and see if it is an issue with the May update that is causing the problems.

So I signed up for a new Google account and logged in on the phone and it added it to the new account ADM instantly! So it isn't a problem with the phone but something to do with my Google account. I have posted a question to the Google Nexus product forum, hopefully I will find a solution.

I hope you do. Every few day, I see a new user with this problem, so hopefully Google will look into it.
I've had the same issue for months. It first started with my 6P, then I got a Nexus 9 and while using my main account there is no entry in device manager for it also.
For both devices other google accounts work fine, so I'm convinced it's an issue tied to my primary google account. The only thing I can think of is I've reached some sort of internal limit on the number of devices associated with an account, due to the high number of flashes over the years. I can live with using an additional signed in account for device manager, but it's annoying. I'll be interested if anyone ever finds a fix!

OOS 11 and Gmail not working

Hi all,
haven't found a thread in this forum about the problem but... have someone problems with OOS 11.1.1.1 and Gmail? Mine does not sync and I lose a lot of emails. Is there a workaround/fix to resolve?
Thank you.
I'm also seeing this sporadically. The mails don't sync to the phone until I go into the Gmail app, at which point they load right away. I'm not losing any, just missing the notifications. I was seeing this on just one of my three accounts (intermittently) before the update, now all my accounts do it, still intermittently. I'm having to peek at gmail to see if anything important came in, several times an hour.
I'm still having this problem. It comes and goes. All battery optimization etc. turned off for Gmail.
Seems a general problem in OxygenOS, because other OPs have the same problem.
For what it's worth, I've booted to (stock) recovery and did a cache wipe from there. After rebooting and letting the system rebuild cache for a little while, email notifications are coming through for Gmail. I can't say how long this will last, but it does seem to be working for me at the moment. Note that doing a cache wipe from within Android/settings/apps/gmail/storage - wipe cache DID NOT fix the problem; I had tried that previously. It was doing the full cache wipe for everything in recovery mode that had a favorable effect.
FYI, Also started experiencing this issue on some custom roms running OOS 11 base. It is intermittent on both OOS 11.1.1.1 and custom roms. I get my Pixel 6 thursday and will be curious if the sync issue is present in A12.

The issue only present in oos11xxxx and some custom ROM that based on it. On other version and phone they are working fine.

I agree. However, it is intermittent. For example, I received the gmail notification of your reply to my xda post. Currently, using stock OOS 11.1.1.1. Anyway, 5 days til the Pixel 6 is in my hands.
Just as an update, after doing the full cache clear in the stock recovery utility, my gmail has been flawless for all three accounts.

It's funny... a day or two after I posted my "all clear, working fine" note, it stopped working again. Going back into recovery and clearing the cache again fixes it... but for how long? I don't know enough about how the cache is used for the various components to guess what's going on. I recall from previous efforts that clearing JUST the GMAIL cache wasn't a solution immediately after the upgrade. So it's probably some other Google component cache getting bogged down.

I don't use the calendar for much since I'm really tied into my work calendar on another phone. My wife uses the calendar, on an account we share (so of course I get all of HER notifications, <facepalm>, but they are rare enough that I can't really track how faithfully it is working.
i'm constantly missing phone calls through gvoice and can barely send and receive anything in messenger lite. something is wrong with the battery optimization here because i've done everything i can to try and remedy this to no avail. wat do
Hello,
i'm still using the xXx 12.4 Nolimits magisk module
within my stock 11.1.1.1 oxygenOS.

It's 16 days since i done that, hope this can
help other users that are using xXx too.
Good luck

Hmm, wondee what they fixed then
Just updated to the new patch 11.1.2.2 last night. Did a recovery reboot and cleared cache. Will now observe to see if the two problems I've had (gmail stops getting push updates and pedometer dies in Google fit after a day or so following reboot) go away. I will update once I have data.
Is there already a permanent fix now?
