Error message in stock Captivate - Captivate General

I'm having an error message on screen every one to two minutes. it said "Failed to Update my location no signal" I already go to AT&T customer service and change the phone. But I continue to have the same error message. I'm restoring all the apps using TIBU. The phone that they give me has an incredible GPS working. I have a constant 5 meter lock in about 8 to 10 seconds.
Does the error has to be related to an app?

Are you resorting system data as well with tb? if you are that can cause problems.you should never restore system apps only user apps

No I just backup the user applications and restore only the user applications.
Any more ideas?

I found the error. It was the weather bug application

How did you fix it I'm having the same problem.

Probably uninstalled weather bug and used a different weather app...just guessing though.

Media scanner is running?

Recently my phone wont allow me to open either my camera or gallery and the message of 'Media scanner is running will appear'.
Does anybody know what I can do to stop this from happening? I've searched a bit and haven't found any definitive solutions.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It has to complete before you can use files on external sd card. The bigger the card, and the more files on the card the longer it takes.

Its been like this for several days and it has never done this before. What exactly is it doing?

Also, I am unable to open the market. When I do a force close comes up for android.process.media. This is very annoying :/ I haven't downloaded anything new or change any system settings recently before this problem starting occurring

Trying scanning that sd card with a desktop. Under Windows7 after you insert the sd card, click on, Computer>(your sd card)>(right click)>properties>tools>error checking>Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors (option)>start. After it completes put it back into the phone and see if the scanning media message goes away.

Didn't work
There isn't actually any apparent message in my notification bar or anywhere else that says the media scanner is running. Unless I try opening my camera or gallery is when a small message appears that says "Media Scanner is running"
Even when I try to add a new alarm it says android.process.media has stopped unexpectedly and I have to force close. This is getting frustrating :\
Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated
The media scanner is disabled - grab media scanner root from the market and re-enable then the process will complete. If you are not rooted, or upgraded and lost root (like me) then a factory restore will clear that setting.

Are there any other alternatives to doing a factory reset? I would but I'm unable to open mybackup pro due to the media scanner running as well and I have some apps that are not saved in my market apps and are no longer available on the market either. I would rather do a factory reset as a last resort in this case.
Any other suggestions? Thanks again for everyone who has provided feedback regarding my problem, I really appreciate it

I think that the factory reset is your only fix for this or like the dude said try to root and cant you go to your google account and go to the dashboard and make sure everything is synced? I noticed that when I did az factory reset alot of my apps are gone but if I look on my pc on chrome go to market and check my account it is all there everything I have ever purchased or downloaded.
Thanks for the advice.
I just logged in online like you suggested but I still don't see some of my apps that were previously available on the market and no longer are. Specifically some of my rom stuff for snes and what not.
How can I back these apps up before I so a factory reset? Is there a way I can save them via USB?
Thanks again

It just wont open it really wont do anything. Every time i try and open the text messages the phone lags and a black box pops up and then immediately closes it. It doesnt even stay open long enough for me to read it. So what I ended up doing was doing a complete data wipe and re-flashing and reinstalling everything. I havent had an issue since I have done that. The only bad part was I lost all of my txt messages.
Sounds like it could have been a couple of things. The message database could have been corrupted. Also, the stock messaging app really doesn't like large SMS databases.
Maybe a bad download of the ROM depending on whether you installed it in CWM... Can't have a bad download with the Odin (or the update in Tweaktools), as it checks the integrity of the file.

I actually just had this problem last week. I was using the stock msg app but it also affected my phone function and any app that needed to connect to a data connection. All apps force closed.
Another note is that this was immediately after an hour long session of using wifi tether over 4g. I rebooted and after boot almost no apps responded and my phone heated up (I assume applications were looping in the background after failing to open running the processor at 100%) so i turned off and went into recovery. Factory reset did nothing, clearing cache did nothing and i couldn't try any other apps due to the phone crashing. Only solution i found was a complete reflash of Tweaked.
I fear this happening again in the future so i figured i'd post my similar experience.

Email exchange issues

Hi all,
Just got the nexus 5 and live everything about it except one thing, the email app. I can't tell if it's exchange services or the app itself, but "unfortunately email has stopped" keeps popping up randomly and will not stop. Another wrote thing is that the so manager will not let me wipe data (screenshot). Things I tried:
*rebooting
*deleting the apk through titanium, wiping data and reinstalling
Any ideas? I really need exchange email for work and it's driving me crazy.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using xda app-developers app
Seems you screwed up something with titanium so do a factory reset and flash back to stock and test it out then and see if it all works fine. After that then do some changes slowly to see if it comes back again to narrow it down?
I have this problem with my Nexus 5 as well. It's been this way since I got it. Really, really annoying. This has been an ongoing problem for a while. I wish there was a fix....

I just wiped, flashed factory image and factory reset the phone and still getting these crashes and it is still not letting me wipe data from the app manager...
Any other suggestions? Right now, I'm going to try to delete the exchange accounts but it's not even letting me delete accounts!! I'm going to try to switch to ART to see if that helps at all, and will give an update.
Any other email clients for android that support exchange?? I'm lost at this point and I really tried everything I know before posting.

This is total stock? As if factory image?
I don't think there's much you can do to fix the problem. There are a lot of people in the same boat. If you search Google, there are several posts about the same issue. Last time I checked, there's no fix.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using xda app-developers app
Yeah, factory image and it still didn't work.
I just ended up flashing twrp and cataclysm ROM and that fixed it.

I'm using Touchdown (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nitrodesk.droid20.nitroid) from Nitrodesk.
Works perfect for my needs
Had battery drain issues with the stock exchange app, so I switched to Touchdown
Hope this helps for you as well
EDIT:
Just read your later post that you switched ROM
cheers
I m experiencing another issue..!!
I get couldnt sign-in error!!
Any solutions for this!!
Dont frget to press the THANK button!!!
Just an update, the new ROM solution was working for a few hours but starting to have issues again with "unfortunately email app has stopped working" errors.
I think it has to be how my exchage accounts are setup:
- One gmail account on IMAP
- 3 Exchange accounts on push notifications and sync all mails
Outside of that setup, nothing special. Anyone experiencing the same?

One last update (unless it creeps up again). I switched the syncing of emails to date back 30 days instead of "All" and that fixed the "unfortunately email has stopped" messages completely. The HTC One email client never had that issue so I assumed that wasn't the problem but I guess the email client on this phone is a bit more sensitive.
Ok, the problem crept back up again... the error message keeps coming back, and in the app manager, the "clear data" button is greyed out so you can't even start over unless you remove all the accounts.
I would like to ask anyone that has working exchange accounts (multiple) on the native email client share their setup and the app versions etc.

Gmail help

So my problem lays with gmail not notifying me of new emails. No sound, no icon in status tray, nothing. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the app. I reinstalled the ROM multiple times. Once with restoring the data and the once without restoring data. I restored a backup. I even reverted back to stock. Nothing seems to allow me to get notification of new mail. When I open the app, it shows new mail but I am never notified. Please help.

I had this problem once. Make sure that gmail sync is on under the Google settings and make sure you have app data sync on also.

Restoring Apps using Titanium Back Up

Since Android 6.0, I have used TB successfully several times to restore apps. For some reason today TB just hangs on restoration. The little symbol keeps spinning. Any suggestions?
Maybe someone can verify that they can restore missing apps to stock ROM using TB and what version of TB & SU they are using. I currently have TB 7.4.0 and SU 2.65.
I've had that problem from time to time. I'm using 7.40 also and I wrote the developer a couple of months ago about that problem. I never got an answer and forgot about it since it doesn't happen that often. I usually go into my apps and force stop TB to get out of it. By any chance it isn't an app on the SD is it? Eventually the app will restore if I play around with it.
Try restoring the app alone without the data then going back and restoring just the data.

Apps are on internal storage, backups are on external storage. Restoring app alone did not work. Reverted TB back to 7.3.0.2 and I can now restore deleted apps.

I reported the repeatable issue to developer including that there is no issue with 7.3.0.2. Got the form e-mail that they will get back within 48 hours. Never heard a word since. Just wish I could disable the playstore notifications of the update to 7.4.
