I just thought I would put this out there for anyone who might be experiencing the same problem I was on my Captivate.
After many flashes, restores with Titanium Backup, updates, etc, I found myself unable to send email from the Gmail app. I could read email and download attachments just fine, but whenever I hit the send button, they just hung there. Reboots did nothing... in fact I didn't really notice it until I went to the "view labels" and noticed that there were a ton of messages in my Outbox.
Anyway, there is a quick fix for this:
- Go to: Settings > Applications > Manage Applications
- Then open Menu and select Filter
- Choose "All" (which means Show All, not Filter All)
- Now, find the Gmail app and select it.
- Click the "Clear Cache" button.
After doing this, everything in my Outbox finally sent and everything was right and good in the world again.
hope this helps...

Were you looking at the Gmail app or the Gmail data?
Gmail data will be greyed out, because the whole thing is cache.
The Gmail app will become greyed out once the cache has been cleared.

I changed my UAString for the built in browser to Desktop but now whenever I open the app it force closes immediately. I tried doing a factory reset hoping that it would reset the browser settings but the browser is still force closing. I even tried the solutions posted in (forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=7237114) for the Vibrant and no luck there either.
I am new to android so I am hoping that someone here can give me a solution to get the browser working again. Also, my phone is rooted and non-market apps are enabled.
Nobody has any ideas as to how to fix this?
I guess I should have posted it when more people would be online instead of four in the morning.

I had the same problem. Go to settings from the home screen. Then applications. Then manage applications. Then press the menu key and change the filter to show all applications. The browser should show up in the list. Select it and delete all app data. the browser should work now.

No luck, still force closing even after deleting the app data (not sure how though since all settings should be cleared).
Any other ideas by any chance?

Go to settings-applications-all applications-picasa
Clear out the cache and defaults. Wait about 2 mins then open up the gallery. This may take some time because you just cleared your cache.
Hi there, thank you for the reply. I've followed your instructions but its saying cache is 0.00b and does not allow me to clear cache (the icon is not lit) and also the "clear defaults" icon is not lit the only options i'm given on that page are "clear data or move to sd card"

You can clear the data as well if that is lit and you are able to clear it. It just 'resets' the app. So bottom line it's ok to clear the data if you can. And if that doesn't work you can just factory reset the phone. But I don't think it's worth doing unless you can restore your apps and settings from a backup. And if you decide you do not want to do a factory reset (I don't blame you if you do not lol), then try alternative apps like gallery3d and picasa tool which are normally found in the market. Not sure if they show up on the non-us market, but you can search for the apk's here.
I think i'm just gona except the new phone the shop are offering me!! at least if i see the problem again on the new phone i'll have a fix but i just think my phone is a bit buggy....few other issues with screen non response too. thanks again for your help.
Hi guys,
This problem has been driving me nuts for the last week:
I love the HTC Clock on the ChaCha with Facebook messages underneath. Much more useful than the weather (Jeez! look out the window!)
Anyhoo, for the last week or so it's been saying "no recent updates" my daughter suggested I just didn't have any decent friends but no, pressing the panel takes me to loads of updates in HTC's Facebook app.
I've tried clearing the cache on Sense, toggling WiFi on and off, rebooting the phone. Still nothing
I can't see how I can get to any settings for the clock, it must hang off of something else but what?
Both the Facebook's own homepage widget and HTC's Friendstream both seem to be working fine. Hope someone can help!
Thanks,
Andy
Aha. I had this exact problem last week and made me realise how much I missed the feature. No end of rebooting, removing the widget / adding it again seemed to fix it. Then had a go a looking for other widgets to use instead, but I couldn't find anything that fit.
Anyway - the solution is to go:
Settings > Applications > Manage Applications > All
Scoot down to 'Facebook for HTC Sense'
First go 'Clear Cache' if that options on.
Second go 'Clear Data'
You'll get a pop up telling all data will be deleted, click OK.
How go back to home click on the Clock widget, go back.....
And hopefully, you're back in business!!!

Yay!
After reseting the data I had to re-authorise my "f" button and "**** about" a bit with the facebook app... then the little sync arrow appeared at the top and it all started working
Thanx!
Tried all of the above with Wifes phone and It didn't work, Then again she has like hundreds of facebook contacts through the stupid games she plays on there so maybe there is just too much info to sync with such a small amount of memory on the device, Anyway I don't care as its her phone lol
Hi,
I'm having the same problem.
I deleted the Facebook application. I installed again.
"Facebook" application, and the "Facebook for HTC Sense" I deleted the application data. But it was not the solution. Still does not update facebook widget.
How can I solve this problem?
Ok, so I have everything installed and running but I have some questions on features that it seems like are missing or I just can't figure them out. First some phone info, then the questions. Any help would be much appreciated.
CM 10 (12/18/2012 version) Though I have had the same issues with all I have installed
Gapps jb 10/11/2012 version
Questions:
- I can't seem to find a way to edit my contacts. They are linked to my gmail account (and I can't store them on my phone like I could with ICS it seems) and when I click on the "People" app it shows the contacts but I don't see a way to edit them or store them on my "phone account" like in ICS.
- When I go to the "Play Store" I don't have a way to go to the apps I have installed to update them.
- IN the messaging app I don't have any way to change settings or notifications. This happens in several apps. I know I can turn notifications off completely in "app info", but how do I change other settings and notifications (like popup window for quick reply, sounds for messages, etc.)
Any suggestions?
you need to remap your keys, settings->system->hardware keys
OK, its official. I am an idiot. I figured it out about an hour or so ago. I thought I already changed it but apparently I didn't. Thanks
Hi, I updated my HTC One M8 today (stock ROM) to Android 6 via an OTA update sent to the phone.
The update went fine - no error messages. But after the final reboot, I am getting constant (and I mean constant, not every few seconds) errors that all process are stopping. Particularly, after everything else has stopped, I get repeated messages about android.process.acore, android.process.media, Google Services Framework, and Google Play services unexpectedly stopping (I guess these are the ones that keep starting up and failing). By pressing "OK" or "close" on these messages, sometimes I can press something very quickly before another message pops up. In this ridiculous manner, I was able to do/find out the following:
- Pressing the home button shows me the white screen with "htc" written on it, like on phone startup
- Pressing the recent-apps button actually does show me the recent apps and I can click on them, though most of them just close right after I open them. Some work (like I can receive phone calls; I just don't hear the phone ring, and I have to press the "talk" button in between pressing OK on error messages)
- I can get into the settings screen. In this way, I tried:
- Disabling one by one every app I could - no help
- Clearing cache & data for all contact & calendar app I could find, and also for Google Services Framework
- I tried to remove my Google accounts from the "accounts and sync" menu, but whenever I press "Remove" it gives me the Google Services Framework has stopped error.
I also tried booting into the recovery screen and clearing the cache partition.
Nothing works!! Please can anyone help me save my phone without wiping it? Unfortunately, since I started the Android update by accident (pressed "now" instead of "later"), I didn't backup anything beforehand... and while my contacts and calendars are always backed up, my apps & preferences & media files are not. I also tried connecting to a computer via USB, but while the computer recognizes the phone, I cannot actually access the files (I see it as a drive, but when I open it there are no files or folders) - so no possibility to back up the files in that way...
Thank you!!
