just did that and all is back to normal... was hoping there was a way around wiping all and tsarting over though... hopefully it wont happen again! not sure what caused it...

Unfortunately, the best way to take care of these odd happenings is usually get back to a known good configuration, then try again to pinpoint the source of the error.
Glad to hear your back up and running though.

I believe I know the cause to this. Go SMS seems to beat the ever living hell out of Gingerbread when you uninstall it. I had this same exact issue and the cure was either do not remove Go SMS for any reason, or never install it.

Go SMS can also be a pain to upgrade and goes nuts with memory issues that aren't really there. I use it and love it but it's tempermental for sure.

GO apps (at least some) collect info and send it back to the developers without telling you.

Issues with Contact app

I have been doing a lot of digging around, but I cannot seem to find anyone with the same problem I am having.
I got my Samsung Captivate a few days back and against my better judgement let the AT&T guy move all my info over from my old iPhone 3g. Everything worked until I tried to open the Contact app which fails and has to be force closed everytime. I have a feeling it does not like th way something is formatted or is corrupt.
Here is the error it gives:
"The process android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again...."
I also have a log if anyone is interested. Save re-flashing and wiping the phone is there an easier way to just wipe the contacts db, or is it possible to delete the contacts program (and is it safe to do this) and sideload it back in?
Thanks in advance for any advice or help.
I actually have the same thing. AT&T guy switched ym contacts and now it doesnt work. Havent found a solution either

That's because the cellbrite machine that we use to transfer contacts is not yet setup to work on the captivate. You will have to do a master data reset, then transfer via sim card, or over gmail. This should be fixed by the end of August.
Yeah, I would never let the AT&T guys transfer anything. Anyway - how did they do it? Via cable?
How were your contacts backed up previously? What was the iPhone syncing too? The easiest thing is to reset the phone, then sync it with whatever the iPhone was syncing with. Since Android is meant to sync with gmail, import your contacts into gmail, and sync. Or sync with Exchange.
There are many options, but please reply with some more info.

I am just going to do the master reset and move from there. I'll post here once I get it fixed or if I am having any problems. The iphone was synced so I will just pull from that and convert everything over manually.
Thank you everyone with the quick responses.
I wouldn't let them do anything either. When I picked up my phone on launch day I was the reps first captivate sale. I had to show him how to open the battery cover. Don't you think they would have some sort oftutorial before they launch new devices

Well, we had the phone over a week before it launched, and the rep should've had a training on the device too, but you can't control everyone from a corporate standpoint. Just as with any industry, you find some people who don't know what they're doing.

I just went through this on my Thunderbolt.
It's usually an issue with corrupted contact or calendar.
To fix it you have to turn off syncing automatic. Then manually try syncing one by one all the Google services. When you get to the one that causes the force close, turn syncing off. Go to settings... applications... clear data and cache for the offending app, then clear data and cache for Google services framework... force stop them if they're running. Reboot your phone. Try syncing again.
That worked for me.

That's not reassuring - I had this problem earlier this week. It's the reason I was jumping back and forth between ROMs and bricking my phone in the process. Hahaha. No matter what I did the crashes would persist.
Anyways, my resolution was to do a factory reset since /data was the only partition that never got wiped when switching ROMs. I haven't had any issues since. I restored all my apps with data with TiBu. I left all the system settings alone and input my settings manually.
But, when I did notice these issues start occurring it was only after I got a random soft reboot. My phone was just sitting on the counter when I heard the bootup sound.

Funny you mention this, because I noticed one of my contacts disappeared when I switched to this phone. Turns out two of my contacts somehow automagically merged together. It was still like that after I wiped /data, but I fixed it manually.
To the OP, it's something worth looking into. If it matters, the two contacts were my dad and bro. It's the same last name and the first names start with the same letter, but in no way are they similar.

Something is corrupting your calendar or contacts.
Do you know which is the culprit?
It's tedious, but if you do, go through each contact or calendar entry that syncs and find the offending one.
You didn't make it initially clear that you'd also turned off syncing and cleared the data in something beyond google services. If you skipped that, all you're doing is trying to repush the bad data on your phone back to the server, which pukes at the attempt and crashes your phone's services.

If you're coming from an HTC sense phone, I think the problem might be related to how it tries to link contacts. Every time I put a new install or rom on my Thunderbolt, the first thing the HTC sense stuff wants to do is link all my google contacts to the phone contacts. What's odd about that is the contacts on the phone come from Google in the first place, so what's the linking needed for?
Another thing I forgot to mention, the phone would crash doing basically anything with calls/SMS, and none of my services were synching properly. Only when I received a call or SMS would my GVoice SMS and GMail update.

I agree, it is an odd scenario. Even more odd, I was coming from pure Android with my Moto Droid on CM7. I never had a phone with an overlay nor did I link multiple Google contacts together, and I hadn't encountered this problem before when switching between ROMs on that or my NOOKcolor. This is actually the first Android device I've had where the contacts could be saved on the phone, but I still prefer to sync everything to the cloud.
I'm just glad my phone is running smooth again and hope the same for the OP.

MT4GS not remembering ringtones

So for a few weeks now, my phone has been unable to remember the ringtone I set for either SMS or phone calls. every time I set it it works, but as soon as I reboot the phone or unmount the sd card then remount, it forgets both tones and picks one of the songs on my sd card as the new tone.
I first noticed it after I was having some problems with btunes (my preferred music app) crashing, so I decided to clear the cache and data in Media Storage from the "Manage applications" menu. I learned to do this from the developer of another music app I had problems with, and thought it was worth a try.
ever since then, i've had the problem. I don't know why. To be fair, I MIGHT have had the problem before that, since I had only had the phone for 2 weeks at that point and didn't pay attention to it due to finals, so I wasn't doing much rebooting, and anyway the ringer volume was probably off the whole time. My memory is fuzzy about the ringtones working before that point. It was definitely happening before I rooted though, so I know that's not the problem.
anyway, help? on a side note, it always seems to automatically pick the same 2 songs for the 2 replacement ringers once I reboot. I'm not sure why, especially since they're not in the media/audio folder anywhere, and don't show up as potential ringtones when you look in any "pick ringtone" menu.
If you are rooted I would say reboot into recovery and clear dalvik-cache.
Sounds like that's where a setting is hiding.
I had this problem too when I was on Bulletproof 1.0, then when I switched to 1.1 it stopped. I don't think it was necessarily rom related, but maybe something to do with the wiping when changing roms.
I've had my (rooted stock ROM) MT4GS forget its notification settings a couple times - for me they usually stay set for a while, but after some time and/or reboots will come back wrong (not always the same wrong either- a few times it has picked notifications from my music folder, other times from the default sounds).
The problem seemed to start after I put another Android device (CM partition on my Touchpad) on my Google account, so I've been operating under the assumption that it is some kind of bug with settings synchronization. Unfortunately, it isn't very repeatable so I've never pinned the behavior down exactly.
I don't know if the issues are related, but gathering information on similar problems will hopefully let someone zero in on the issue.
the settings sync issue is worth checking, especially since I still have my Transform Ultra that I sometimes have turned on at home on wifi. I checked it, and the ringers were set on something else, So I matched them to the MT4GS and we'll see what happens.
I'm not sure that's the culprit, though, since this only happens when I restart the phone or re-mount the card. seems like settings sync wouldn't be an issue there, though I may be wrong.
I have the same issue with MT4GS and mines is certainly not rooted yet. The phone is only a couple weeks old. But its annoying. Sometimes I don't even have to reboot, sometimes it randomly just happens. IDK what to think of it.
I always shut off settings sync during setup and this used to happen to me.

You mena the initial setup of the phone? and how did you stop it?
Yeah its the google "backup my device" crap malfunctioning. Its dumb because what do u want it to backup? Texts, logs... What does it backup? Apps and bullcrap. If u want to start over, y can't I install apps individually? Or just give me the lists of crap ur gonna reinstall on my phone and let me select what I want....
Anyways, turn it off, reboot, sync, before nandroid/rom flashing and then don't use it on fresh install.

ok, so what you're saying is, google's sync system is flawed so it periodically screws up the ringer settings on my phone, by attempting to "correct" them to the server information? why doesn't it just upload the knew info of the correct ringtone when I deliberately change it?

That's what she said... PRECISELY what I don't understand. It seems as though everythings good, you've set your phone up after a fresh install, and everytime you make changes it syncs and instead of uploading the new stuff, it downloads the old. It may be something we are doing wrong by hacking our phones and some setting somewhere is missing or a simple kernel command is confusing it or who knows... Maybe its google's fault... All I know is, its annoying. It should get rid of your issue.
On a side note, there may be some settings for this hidden in some settings you can only find via pc. Like buried in google voice or plus or chrome or some now defunct google product you can no longer log into... Perhaps some digging there. I've found little to no documentation on the phone end...

hmmm, well it can't be hacking, because this was happening before I had the phone hacked. also, oddly enough, I also have a different off line phone as a spare that's on the same android version, 2.3.4, yet does not have this problem. of course, that one's stock Android, not infected with Sense.....

Well... If it happened prior to hacking, then it's not google backup. So go with other possibilities... Phone is hosed... Sd card hosed... (Have u tried selecting various tones on card or in your system media folder within your phone?)... Or is that other phone ever on? Could be going back to that sync issue. Turn it on and then see if its connecting to wifi and syncing. Which ringtone r u stuck on?

My phone started doing this after I swapped SD cards with a larger one. I just had to go in, change it to something else, then change it back. Been working fine since.

[Q] android.process.acore has stopped, on ALL lollipop roms, after complete wipe!

Okay, guys, here's the problem. I have been pulling my hair out for days over this. On any Lollipop ROM I install, no matter what combination of gapps and AOSP ROM I install on my OPO, after completely and totally formatting caches, system, data, and /data/media, the problem persists:
Always after logging into an account, but not always the same one, I start to get an error "android.process.acore has stopped." It happens every few seconds and renders the device unusable. I have tried every fix I could find online, including wiping contacts storage data, contacts data, etc. I have formatted my phone several times, and each time the problem comes back. It only stops when I disable Contacts Storage in settings, which then in turn disables all contacts functionality.
This is getting totally ridiculous, and the only thing I can think of is that the AOSP version of contactsprovider.apk is totally corrupt. Any ideas?
I have the same problem... Did you succeed in resolving it?

Somewhat. The issue manifests itself when Facebook is synced with your contacts, and you use Facebook OAuth to sign into another app. For whatever reason, this causes the contacts app to go nuts, and the only way to fix it once it happens is to get rid of the Facebook app. It's a bug that is quite beyond me to fix. There is a modded Facebook apk floating around somewhere, that has had permissions modded so it's not allowed to use your contacts or register as an account in your phone. That works. It also works if when you install a new ROM, you sign into any apps that use your Facebook login before you install the Facebook app, that way you log into them with the browser and they never talk to the contacts app. Once you have installed the Facebook app, DO NOT EVER click "Sign in with Facebook" in any app on your phone, or you're screwed again.
That's pretty much what I've come up with thus far. Hope that helps.
EDIT: Here's the link to the thread with the modded Facebook apk: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2333637
I have the same issue on all CM12 based roms. It seems to happen for users with many contacts (hundreds). Uninstalling facebook seems to fix the problem for me. I have no such problems on my Nexus 5 with the same setup and facebook installed, so I wonder if it's not something specific to the bacon CM12 code.

Oh yeah I've been trying to figure this out since cm12 unofficially came out for the note 4. Like all of you said it's fine for a while or sometimes it's messed up right away. I've had it work for two or three days then out of nowhere just have the error pop-up and never go away. Disabling google contacts storage also got rid of the error for me but of course I can't have the phone without google contacts and sync. This last time it happened just by downloading and signing into Dropbox, which isn't related to Facebook at all. This is belong frustrating because nobody seems to have a fix and it's the only thing stopping me from using cm 12. Is there any Dev that can help or work on this with a logcat?

I didn't find one...
I talked about this problem in xda temasek rom thread and ak kernel thread without success. I even sent a message on official cyanogenmod website, with last crash and logcat attached. No success. The problem happened in 2012 too... And since then, Google didn't have a solution for it.
It seems that Google is finally aware about this problem and the correction could arrive in "a future version"... Well. I want it now... Indeed, there seems to be only to increase the buffer transaction between applications and contact storage from 1MB to 2MB for example, to have it corrected. But no dev wants to do it because the problem cannot be reproduced! And it's rare! But we have it! It's incredible to have it back after a full wipe... And happening randomly, just after a random sync between application and Android system...
Any more updates on this issue/ anything else we can do to get this resolved? Even my partial, temporary solutions have stopped working, and I am getting really frustrated.
Glad to see I'm not the only one here with this issue. Took different search terms to eventually land me here since this such an old and somewhat common issue. Nonetheless... Same problem. OnePlus One running Temasek CM12. Disabling contacts storage.... Blah blah blah. Its rather disappointing there's no actual solution instead of a workaround. But, I'm finally happy to know its Facebook. An app I rarely use but do need unfortunately.
Edit: wondering if anyone has had any luck fastboot flashing the factory image? I know it's a pain in the ass to have to back up all your files, etc off the device so I'd like to know if anyone has had success or even tried this. Cuz, I really won't feel satisfied until I've resorted to this last measure if there's the possibility of eradicating the problem.

I initially had this problem when I switched to lollipop, not sure how it fixed itself but I'm guessing it's the contacts sync like you posted here; only the first time I accidentally synced Fb contacts, and due to the massive number of friends on it, it crashed. But you can disable any sort of sync services on Fb and continue using the app for everything else, I've had no issues since.
Do you mean luck with fixing this issue after flashing the factory image or only returning to stock? Because I've had no issues returning to stock from lollipop by flashing the factory images through fastboot.

I meant with flashing the factory image via fastboot to stop the frustratingly obnoxious pop ups of the process stopping (w/o uninstalling FB). You answered my question.
So, get this... Resolved the error by uninstalling Facebook. Today I picked up a Moto 360 and you HAVE to install Motorola Connect to really personalize the device... Once I allowed it to see my Google+ account info the android.process.acore started again. I'm SO annoyed. Gonna try a factory reset again and see if that helps. The only way to stop it is to uninstall Motorola Connect and that really sucks cuz I want to (of course) mess with my watch. I know nothing of Android Wear yet or how to root, etc the 360 so.... Here I go. Boldly. Lol
I'm just curious why I haven't seen more people having this issue. It's been plaguing me now for almost 2 weeks. I'm ready to throw my Bamboo OPO out the effing window. WTF.

It's mostly not because of lollipop, but might be the app itself, I read a few others having this problem on other forums with HTC, the solution they found was to clear data on contacts storage. Give that a try and see if it works, if not I'd suggest going back to Stock or probably the new OxygenOS which is supposed to be out by now. Check out @timmaaa index thread in the general section, it has all the necessary stock images you need. Report back and let us know if it fixed the issue for you

Yea, I tried clearing contacts storage numerous times to no avail. I can live without the app... At first I thought it was a requirement to change watch faces... But, I do have a backup of stock, rooted but I can't go back to KK after being so used to LP. I'm def going to jump on Oxygen just to try it out but I'm guessing I'll end up running stock CM12s. I can't wait. I'd much rather have a stock (w/root of course) or mostly stock device that actually works completely.

The bug has been corrected by Google themselves with Android 5.1. Finally!.. So, like me, just try omni 5.1 or last cm12.1 unofficial and the error has gone! So good to use my phone.... Hmmm... How to say... Normally... Lol.

Very nice. Glad to hear this... Xposed isn't compatible with 5.1 yet, right?
Two things to try…
Go into settings/apps , press the menu button and select "reset app preferences". Reboot
You Can also try entering the following in your commands:
Su (enter)
Killall rild (enter)
reboot
Should have read the entire post, glad that has been fixed by google, I experienced the same thing and it's a huge pain in the butt.

No. Not yet. But. Well. CM12 is already good functionality wise. And with this bug disappeared it's really a happiness.

Neither worked but thanks for the suggestion. I did find a Facebook work around. Found the Lite Version via a Google search (since its technically not available in the US) , installed it and it works fine. No android.process.acore FC's or repeated pop ups.
Update: This problem reared its ugly head again on CM12 and I ended up having to uninstall Twitter this time. So, now I'm on CM12s and as soon as I logged into my other Google account user Boxers email app I got the android.process.acore crash again. Uninstalling that app immediately stopped it. God I can't wait for 12.1 for our OPOs. This problem is absolutely ridiculous. I can't take this anymore. I really can't use ANY social media apps unless its like Tinfoil for FB or Twitter. I don't have any connected accounts except Google & Cyanogen.. Which I truly can live without but... Just for the hell of it.... Knowing I have a backup and I'm about to clean flash the latest stock build I tried to add Waze and it caused the crash all over again. Uninstalling Waze didn't help. I shouldn't have to deal with this. Only way to stop it is to disable contacts storage. Once it begins it doesn't stop. Effing Google with their half baked crap.

MMS and Notification issues on Note 10+

Hello, I've had the unlocked Note 10+ for a few weeks and have had chronic issues since day one and not really sure what to do about it. A lot of the issues seem to get worse over time. Not sure if the problems are related, but it feels like it.
First, I have MMS issues mostly with any other app but the built in messaging app and even that one isn't perfect. Using Textra for instance will get me MMS timeouts sending and receiving and sometimes messages don't send or come in. This seems to happen with or without wifi enabled.
Next, I'm getting delayed notifications on many if not all apps. Notifications will some in here or there, then all of a sudden I'll get all the notifications for the day all at once. So suddenly my phone is going crazy receiving 50 notifications from different apps all at once. Related to that, if I get a notification and click on it to open the related app, often nothing happens. Then like an hour or more later the app I clicked on for the notification will pop open in the middle of doing something else. It will also get hung up installing or updating apps. A reboot will usually clear this but at some point it get's stuck again and will take hours to install an app if it does at all.
I've done all the usual things like disabling battery optimization for the apps in question, set the phone to high performance mode. Uninstalled and reinstalled things, cleared the cache partition, reset network settings, checked APN settings, even now have factory reset the phone, twice, got a new SIM card. Talked to Samsung and they tell me I need to mail it to their repair depot in Texas if I think it's hardware.
So no idea where to go with this. Seems hard to believe it's a hardware problem and sending the phone away for a week or more doesn't seem like a great option, especially when they might just send it back as it works OK for awhile after a reboot.
Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks
After you reset the phone, did you install apps manually from store or let it go off a backup?
Also, just an idea but maybe the tower servicing you is acting up.. Unless it's been happening in multiple areas.

That is a good point, I did let it install automatically from the Google backup. It wasn't a true restore the way I would generally think of it as everything was installed from scratch, but maybe some settings are getting put back that are messed up. It happens out of the are as well, but I did talk to my carrier and they claimed the did some stuff at the tower that might help. I usually think that means they go get coffee then tell me to reboot the phone. Maybe this evening I'll try a fresh install with no restore. Sort of sucks of course as that's a lot more work to get going, but what the hell at this point. Thanks.

Sorry for the late reply. I have a note 10+ myself now unlocked and seeing some texting issues where I don't receive text or mms from Apple phones. Hasn't happened with Android to Android though.

So none of that reinstall stuff helped me. On texting I finally tried the Google Messages app with chat features enabled when it was leaked. Messages alone didn't work, but enabling RCS did and now it actually works better than ever. I hate giving up on textra, but I like the sheer speed of sending giant MMS messages now.
On the notifications thing, the thing that finally got that working right was disabling the Google app. As soon as I did that, all is working as expected. Of course that breaks some Google stuff, but at the moment that's what I have to do to make this work. Even upgrading to Android 10 betas didn't allow me to turn that back on.
