Consistent App Crashing

I'm running the latest version of MIUI, and after an hour or two goes by when using my phone, most of my applications crash upon launch, including messaging, browser, words with friends, titanium backup, ect. The issue is resolved by restarting the phone 3 or 4 times, but after an hour or two they all start crashing again. It seemed to be worse on 1.7.22, but it still happens on 1.7.15. Any ideas?

use cm7 or odin back to stock and then reflash miui again

Yeah I was afraid of that. I'll give it a go.

It happens to me also. So...I'm gonna flash Trigger Redux build 14 soon, but I'll miss all the MIUI goodness.

There's a fix somewhere, it's because the data is full. I completely forgot where. That's why you shouldn't backup data using titanium backup

process com.google.process.gapps has stopped working error

I've searched for a fix for this error but all it brings up are like 100 page threads and I can't get to the exact page. Does anybody know how I can stop getting this to pop up? I've tried switching roms but the next one does it as well. Any tips?

Nobody knows a fix for this one?

For me, turning off Sync Browser in sync settings for my Google account fixed this problem. I am using a HP Touch pad though, but should be the same on any android device.

Same thing is happening on my touchpad when I click sync browser that comes up. Turning it off is fine with me thanks for the tip.

This happened to me occasionally when I was running a custom rom but since I updated to the next version of the rom and flashed gapps, it hasn't come back. There did not appear to be a reason or rhyme. I tried to reinstall chrome and gmail but not sure of the results. May want to try that.

process com.google.process.gapps has stopped working
I have the same problem. The only difference that I know exactly when happened and what is the reason.
I upgraded to JellyBean, but just before that I force stopped some running apps thinking of a "clear" upgrade (WRONG).
Then after the upgrade (I was rooted before it) I opened Titanium Backup and noticed that some applications were showing as uninstalled ???
I did not uninstall them - but somehow they ended up uninstalled after the upgrade.
I suppose this happened because I stopped those few processes just before upgrading.
Now the applications showed as uninstalled are: "DRM Storage Protected..." Media Storage" , "Gallery" and some more
All those missing now ... I cannot start Google Store at all !? It opens for a second and closes itself. Tried to restore those with Titanium Backup but it does not restore them ... just runs endlessly.
PLEASE HELP !

I would try to flash the factory rom, unless you are using custom, flash the custom with gapps.

Here's the most simple fix. Remove your Google account and add it again.

It's been driving me nuts.
As soon as my Nexus 7 boots I get the message.
I removed my Google account and re-entered my details.
The message popped up again as soon as the account was added.
I'm on the stock 4.2.1 rooted ROM.
Factory reset next without restoring a backup.
Speaking of backup. When I used the ADB restore command.
I had the message that my device will restart. It did. I then had the Restore screen on my Nexus 7.
I hit Restore my data button or whatever it's called, and my tablet reset immediately. And no data was restored to my Nexus.
It's seems that is broken too.

I cleared Data and Cache of Browser (my stock Browser) and error disappeared, problem fixed...

I'm having this issue as well. Started happening after I flashed Paranoid Android 2.99 Beta 6 and the current gApps zip.

Did you tried this? (Comment before yours)

Finally cured it on my stock rooted Nexus 7.
Factory wipe and didn't restore any system apps.
So far so good.
I tried every other trick in the book.
So in the end, a wipe was the only option.

I just solved this on my Nexus. It was one of the google apps having a sync issue. I solved it by turning each one off till the error stopped then uninstalling it and reloading it.

TWRP 2.3.3 installed via Goomanager.
With rooted stock ROM 4.2.1 I used GooManager to download latest Paranoid Android 2.99 Beta 9 and GAPPS-JB-20121011.zip.
Factory reset and wipe of Cache & Dalvik then flashed PA from Goomanager
Nexus booted into PA
Opened Goo manager and flashed the GAPPS I'd already downloaded.
Nexus boots into unlock screen but then says "Unfortunately, the process com.google.process.gapps has stopped" and when that is cleared I get "Unfortunately, Setup Wizard has stopped" over and over again.
I don't get an opportunity to do anything other that re-boot into recovery.
I've re-flashed GAPPS by itself over the top, as well as PA and have tried, from within TWRP, to flash both one after the other. I always get the same errors.
Any advice please?
[Edit #1]
Used Wug's NRT 1.6.1 to flash back to stock, unlock and rooted again.
Installed Goo Manager again and downloaded GAPPS and PA 2.99 and going to see what happens.
and.....
Exactly the same problem!
[Edit #2]
Solved.
There was a later version of GAPPS that Goo didn't have listed.

Chrome issues on custom ROMs

I know some people have had issues with Chrome and Chrome Beta on just about any N7.2 ROM; what happens is that while using it, the app crashes. It doesn't force close, it just crashes; it's near impossible to use because it happens every time you try to load any page. Even loading Google.com causes a crash; if you force close the app, then open it back up, it crashes after only a few seconds.
I've heard multiple things: it's the kernel; no wait, it's the GAPPs; just kidding, it's the ROM.
I have no clue what it is. I haven't been able to get Chrome to work on anything.
I've tried CM10.2 nightlies, I've tried this ROM: CM10.2 Kang. I've tried literally every available kernel. I'm currently using Faux's Enhanced Stock kernel (v002). I've tried clearing the data from Chrome, I've done clean wipes (wiped data, system, cache, dalvik cache). Someone said use SlimRoms Gapps. Tried that, still doesn't work.
I would like some help in either resolving this issue, or maybe some help in narrowing down what's causing the issue. I appreciate any and all help.

I saw someone else had this issue in another thread. I personally have never had this issue with Chrome or any other browser. Try running your Nexus 7 in Safe Mode by rebooting and holding down the volume down button until it boots up.

Right now I'm using CM Kangs ROM with PA Gapps and Elementalx kernel, and no crashing. As a matter of fact, I'm writing this using Chrome. Sometimes when I'm flashing ROMs and use titanium back up to restore my apps, Chrome starts crashing, but a reboot always solve it.

I'll give PA Gapps a try. Same ROM as you. I'm desperate.
EDIT: I know some people are lucky to NOT have any issues, but I haven't been using my N7 as much because I can't get Chrome working. I do all my browsing there. :|

Also, if I have a problem with CM Kangs(because I switch from ROM to ROM) I just full wipe everything(dalvik, system, data, cache) and install one of the first versions of it(10.2-20130806) and then install a new version of it by dirty flash. Then install Chrome new from the store, I don't know, it may not work but just trying explain everything I do. I too can't browse without Chrome, there's AOSP but still prefer Chrome. Report if you got it working anyhow please.

I had major issues with Chrome on both my HTC One and my GS4 Active. It would crash and freeze my phone, requiring a reboot. It would even make my phone freeze when not using Chrome. Once I actually removed Chrome from /system, the freezes stopped completely. It took a lot of troubleshooting and headaches to determine that Chrome was the cause of my issues but I am 100% certain that it was the culprit. I was stock rooted on both devices, no custom ROMs. I haven't had any problems on my N7 yet, but I wouldn't be surprised if Chrome started acting up again.

It's not a system app for me.

That makes it easier. Just delete it and find another browser. I'm using Firefox. I don't like it as much as Chrome, specifically because it lacks the syncing with Chrome on my laptop, but I've learned to live without it. Firefox is a great browser on its own.

Turns out it is Xposed Framework that was causing the issue. I'm assuming it's because it installs a modified "app_process" file in "/system/bin/app_process". I uninstalled Xposed and Chrome Beta works again.

Nexus 10 (manta), Lineage OS 13, bootloop with Nova Launcher

Hi,
A few days ago I experienced a boot loop on my Nexus 10 with Lineage OS 13, build 20170909.
I broke it down to a recent update of Nova Launcher - going back to an older version and preventing Google Play automatic updates fixed it for me.
There are a number of reports of the same symptom pointing to Nova Google Companion, TeslaUnread, IFTTT, and Action Launcher.
I don't think this is an issue in those apps, but rather caused in the OS - an App should not be able to bring down the OS to a reboot (and even worse, due to the automatic restart of the launcher, causing a reboot loop).
any ideas of a fix in the OS? something else to prevent this from happening again?
Regards
sthones

I confirm the same. Constant bootloop with Nova Launcher

I am also experiencing this on an older version of CM13. Clearing cache does not work. Any quick fix possible via recovery?

I had the same problem with a Galaxy S3 running OctOS (CM13 based Android 6.0.1). The Nova Launcher update caused my phone to crash and reboot as soon as it was unlocked.
I was able to disable Nova in recovery (TWRP) using the built-in TWRP file manager. navigate to /data/app/com.teslacoilsw.launcher/ and delete base.apk. This will keep Nova from loading on startup but will not delete your data. My phone worked fine after that, albeit without Nova.

Thanks a lot, removing base.apk stopped the reboot loop.

My device has just started a bootloop too, but I don't even have Nova installed on it (though I do on my phone), just the stock launcher in CM / LineageOS.
I reset it to factory defaults and then it boots, but when it restores my old apps it starts looping again, so one of them is the cause. I didn't learn anything from the log via adb.
Any ideas?

I discovered it was one of my apps causing this. I removed it and it boots ok. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=au.com.realestate.app&hl=en

Thanks for the hint, it was a real estate app from germany (immoscout24) which caused the problem at my device. Deleted the base.apk and everything works fine again.

Happening to me now, ffs im on the latest nightly and thats not fixed it.

Mine just started boot looping yesterday, but I hadn't installed any new apps in a while, and I have automatic app updating turned off (I also don't have any real estate apps installed, German or otherwise). Any hints on how to track down the culprit? Is there a boot log to look at?
Thanks!

Folks, there is a defect open in the official lineage bug tracking system. please add your comments there - maybe this needs some more support to get looked at:
https://jira.lineageos.org/browse/BUGBASH-1075

Same here. Started happening after it updated my apps yesterday. Removed nova launcher and all other Teslacoil software, problem remains. Can only start the tablet in Safe mode.

Seeing this on my device as well, except I am not able to remove the base.apk file because the app I installed somehow corrupted my bootloader such that I cannot get into recovery mode.
The culprit app? LinkedIn. Automatic app updates were turned off, and just before the bootloop started, the last thing I did was install that app. It finished, it rebooted, and hasn't stopped rebooting since.
When I put it into bootloader mode, it stops the continual rebooting and displays the "open panel" robot and "Downloading... do not turn off target". From there, all I can do is press power to start, then it goes back into rebooting. There is no way to get into recovery mode from there.
Also, attempting to keystroke into recovery mode just restarted the lineos infinite reboot.
Can't get into recovery, can't get the bootloader out of "Downloading" mode, and lineos continually reboots... Any wise sage souls have any ideas on this one? It looks like my device is bricked

It got me too - I don't have Nova Launcher installed. A few weeks ago the device started bootlooping with a build I had installed since september. I updated to one of the latest builds and had the same issue again. At the moment i got it working most of the time, but when i start certain apps it just reboots.
Seems to be independent to build version and can occur with different apps (at least thats what I've read here...).
Is this a Lineage Os 13 only thing or can I throw the device away now?
Greetings

I started having this issue this week as well. Oddly enough, I was still on CM12.1. In the middle of watching Plex and it rebooted, and has been boot-looping since. I did a factory wipe and while installing apps, it started looping again. I then installed the latest nightly of LOS13.1 and again, once it got part-way installing apps, it started boot-looping again. So this is not just a LineageOS thing, it seems to be an app update (I do have auto-update turned on).

I´m having the same problem without ever have the Nove Launcher installed. The bootloop started on my device several weeks ago. I tried to fix it by wipe partly or total and reinstall the latest nightly of los13 (20171126) and opengapps micro 27.11.2017 (and everything else).
As soon as I reinstall my apps, los goes back to bootloop. Sometimes, when I manually install only few apps, the system seems stable, until die next updates come by the play store.
So now I went back to stock rom until I´m getting aware of the problem beeing solved.

workaround, maybe
I wouldn'n call it a bootloop but rather a startloop
Anyhow, in my case I was able to break the loop by entering android's safe mode by simultaneously pressing vol up and down keys during startup. In safe mode, I was able to delete offending apps. After reboot, system is running again. Apps identified so far to make lineageos unhappy: open camera, yalp store, YouTube(!).., oruxmaps.

Removing offending apps works
Thank you!
I did the same with your advice... removed some apps and it works. I went back to September ROM, then update to Nov ASB ROM and it works fine.
ShevT is on it, here https://jira.lineageos.org/browse/BUGBASH-1052
and here: https://review.lineageos.org/#/c/197386/
Hope it gets fixed and merged soon... as this has been a pain the neck for a while, possibly related to a similar problem earlier this year.

I'm running CM13 and I have the same problem. I am not tech savvy with installing ROMs but managed to get to TWRP and did a reset to factory. Got part way thru optimising apps and the problem came back. I could only turn the tablet off via TWRP!
I don't mind going back to stock rom but not sure how to do it..best I look on here and start to educate myself..I'm 73yo so might not get finished before my time is up

Apps crashes and random restarts

Hy everyone
After a lot of searches and flashing I have to open this thread.
No matter which oreo or nougat rom I tried I got constant app crashes and random reboots.
I have tried all oreo roms, nougat Roms and eui roms too.
Sometimes app crashes after one day or instantly after flashing.
I have tried different modems.
Tried without xposed and magisk but still apps start crashes on each rom.
I have clean flashed everytime too. But don't know why this is happening on all roms.
any one can help me out?
Thankyou

Heyyo, have you also tried doing a TWRP format data (by format data I mean format and not wipe) and then not restoring from a Google Cloud backup? There is a small chance that it could be a setting or something from your Google Cloud backup causing the instability.

Bit better
Hey, Thanks a lot for reply and I am sorry that I just read your response right now
First of all I didn't use Google cloud backup
I only restored from Tb.
I have already formatted data as you said and flashed new rom. Didn't even restore data from Tb.
As soon as I installed three to four apps from playstore phone restarted.
After installing all apps and setting up my phone.
Now app crashes are lot less then before but they still crashes like just Google stopped working until I restart phone.
Different app crashes after sometime and I have to restart phone to get them back to Work. Phone also restart sometimes.
Don't know why it's like that...
Is there any way I can check which app causing problems by myself?
Any suggestions?
Thank you
