[Q] Out of nowhere multiple issues and FCs - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

9020t running CM9 3.4 w/ stock kernal, has been running perfectly fine but all of a sudden this morning multiple apps give me the error "Unfortunately **** has stopped". Along with that I know at least 1 app disappeared, my launcher reset to default, and apps that had already been granted superuser are asking for it again. Chrome prompts "Critical Functionality required to run Chrome is missing; either your Chrome installation is incomplete, or not compatible with this version of Android".
Going to do a full fresh wipe, wondered if anyone else has had this happen recently.

I had this happen with my old LG Optimus T, Booting into recovery and wiping the cache's did the trick to fix it without wiping the whole phone. But if that fails then a full wipe/re-flash would be required.
If you're going to do a full wipe anyway, I suggest you reflash CM9 as well, Just in case the flash image somehow became corrupt.

problem with google wallet - insufficient privileges

So I had google wallet working properly using the fix on an earlier release of CM7 Nightly and then I tried the ICS Port for a few weeks. Well I came back to CM7 nightlies and before doing so i did a clean wipe and format and now when I try to install google wallet I get an error that says "insufficient secure element privileges for this system image (test-keys). Please contact Google Support" By accident I pressed the search key and the window disappeared and it seemed like it let me go through the process of setting up google wallet. I even received an email from google confirming it. However, it doesn't load the $10 so there's no way of telling if it would still work given the error. Is there a simple fix to this? I tried removing it and re-installing the fix to no avail. I'm a n00b if you couldn't tell already.
Had the same issue earlier and now wallet just sits there and syncs first time this has done this. Using Petes Kernel and Bugless Beast rom which Ive flashed a few times before now
I'm having the same problems, so what I am doing is unrooting then reroot and see if the problem had to do with 4.0 I'll let y'all know my status in about 30 minutes.
** UnRooted, reRooted, and flashed over cm7 again and no fix..
***** Now I am completely unrooted and fully updated and still GW doesn't work*******
Flash the google wallet fix in the same recovery session when flashing your custom rom
this i do know but now i am completlely stock and my nfc can't uncheck, wont work at all... idk what happened but nothing is working now.
Had this problem too.
I was running ICS Dirty 3.6 for a few days and just flashed back to GPA18 and now wallet doesn't work, gives the above mentioned error. I contacted google wallet services and they are "investigating" the problem.
The support specialist I talked to let me know that wallet is not designed to work with custom roms and rooted phones because of security issues. I am wating to hear back from the wallet team about how they will resolve this. I will update here when I hear back from them and let you know how they resolved the issue.
See it isn't a Google Wallet problem its an NFC problem, you won't be able to uncheck the NFC option in the wireless settings. Lucky for me the balance in my Google Wallet account is $0.00 lol
I can check and uncheck my NFC option in settings. ?

Yea I can't, guess its broke on my phone now. When I press it to uncheck it, it just greys out then I press back then reenter wireless settings and it's still checked in green like normal

Something weird
ok as you know from reading these posts I cant uncheck NFC while Google Wallet is installed on the phone. when I use titanium back up to take it off then I can uncheck it. So I tried to install it again and then it still wouldn't uncheck it just greys out ( even the check ) and when I go to Google Wallet its just a straight Black Screen and it just sits there.

I tried this with cm7, ics, and oxygen. So I'm guessing it is an nfc related issue like everyone else is saying. It was working great before--not sure what went wrong in between.
Works Only on Rooted Stock ROM
I just installed this on my AT&T Nexus S and it works, got the $10 pre-paid card too. I switched to CM7 ROM and I got the "insufficient secure element privileges" error. Seems like Google Wallet is blocking CUSTOM ROMS -- It makes sense, it is dealing with money after all.
If you are getting the gray NFC and cannot check it on, just download the Nfc_fix.zip and flash it. It should work after that. Remember that flashes your Dalvik cache so the reboot will take longer.. don't panic and wait.

I could have sworn I had it working on CM7 originally. I remember getting the $10 as well. But maybe you're right and my memory is just serving me incorrectly.
edit: i got it to work on the latest oxygen. of course oxygen IS pretty much stock. i'm not sure that i did anything different though. i did a clean wipe, data, cache, dalvik, formatted system, cache, data, boot and installed rom gapps and wallet fix.

Everything you're telling I already know, I even unrooted the phone went back to 2.3.4 then updated to 2.3.5, then 2.3.7 I am still getting the same problem .. so it has nothing to do with root or the same way i've been flashing the fix. I flashed over the GW fix over 20 times with no problems until I flashed the ICS ROM that is out for the NS4G, after I flashed it, I've had nothing but problems.

I've had it working on cm7 all along using the googlewalletfix v5. Just have to reflash it each time I flash a nightly. Funny thing is market will show it's not installed but still updates it fine.

[Q] All Applications Force Closing on Reboot

I'm having this problem where sometimes after I reboot my G2x (running HellFire Phoenix V2.1 with the kernel already included) it would start back up with the "Touch Android to begin" screen as if I just did a fresh install and then nearly all my applications would start Force Closing on me.
I'm not sure what is causing this. My applications that we're previously installed all force close when I try to open it, and the Play Store is back to Market. My saved Google account is erased as well. Any ideas? It's beginning to get very annoying to have to wipe my phone and reinstall everything all over again.

have you tried actually going in and wiping /data and /cache before re-flashing the rom to see if it helps? if not, try that.
if its only happening to you on that rom, try flashing another.
if none of this works for you, then use This tool.

I always use the Nullifier application before installing the rom, yet I'm still having this weird problem. I'm going try that other wiping method and see how it goes. Thank you !
Downloads of gapps/ROM might be at fault also. If wiping doesn't solve it for you then you should re-download them.

[Q] Issues with phone after flashing a new ROM (Unfortunately, Google Search has...)

I went from bone stock to the most recent PAC-man nightly (22.0.1) and its fine with a couple of exceptions. When the phone tries to re-download my apps each one gives me an error message. That's not a big deal since I can still manually re-download them. But the issue that does concern me is that every time I try to use voice-to-text, I get "Unfortunately, Google Search has stopped." Maybe not the worst thing in the world but it's getting in the way of my normal usage. I've tried wiping and re-flashing and I've flashed the latest modem but no luck so far. I tried the CM10.1 M2 snapshot too but I get the same issue. What am I missing?

Apparently, I didn't search hard enough for an answer before. Turns out I just needed to update Google Search manually. Help on particular apps not downloading is still welcome though!

[Q] Apps Stuck "Downloading"

Two days ago I decided to switch from cm12 nightlies to cm12s.
After performing a clean flash I was very pleased to see that I even had the option to restore the apps I had installed before. However, when trying to install those apps I encountered a problem. Because the apps would not download. They would say "Downloading"but it woult get stuck forever.
I had never experienced such problem before but so I thought it was the cm12s flash. So, I flashed back to the latest cm12 nightly I still had on my OPO with the hope that the problem would have vanished. Unfortunately it didn't.
MY PROBLEM:
When I try to install apps from the play store they get stuck in an endless loop of "downloading".
What I tried so far:
flashing back to a normal cm12 nightly
flashing cm11s and after that upgrading to cm12s (in cm11s the problem also persists, same for SOKP-rom to see if it would also persist in a different rom)
rebooting with and without superSU after flashing OS.
entirely wiping my phone (cache, dalvik cache, system, data) and flashing cm12/s
after the step above^, deleting the data and/or cache from "Google Play Services", "Google play Store", "Google Play Framework" (and if possible deleting updates so it goes back to factory app)
changing location settings
deleting google account and re adding it.
clearing Cache and Dalvik Cache multiple times
using the 1-Click installer from their forum
Tried to find the android_secure folder but could not find it. (even with hidden files disabled in windows)
Perhaps even more but I can't quite remember much more...
I experienced after flashing a new os multiple times that the problem is not really the play store and/or the apps in it. But I believe the problem is more with the "Google Play Services" because most of the apps I can update perfectly fine but the "Google Play Services" continuously refuse to update and get stuck at "downloading". Unfortunately that app is needed to be able to use e.g "Gmail".
Hopefully there are more people on this forum who have experienced this problem before and know how to fix it.
Got the same crap... It's been 2 days now with the Store stuck on downloading.
I have all the latest updates, Store, Services etc.
Also tried to disable the security section like Enterprise.
Nothing works.... This is driving me mad!!!
Anyone got a fix?

Somehow it fixed itself......
What cought my eye was that if it is not working, try downloading the app via 3g or at your friends house... For some reason it would sometimes not download via wifi but it would via 3g.
I hope this works for you aswel

I didn't get it working again, so I removed all data and reinstalled the rooted firmware for my device and just did a backup with the mybackup pro.
Somehow there was something with the system or the data, but it works now.

[Q] Constant error after installing the lastest OTA.

Hello!
My phone is rooted and has no custom roms or kernels.
I went from kitkat to lollipop to the lastest OTA update.
At first, everyone was having issues with the Google Play services wakelock, so I installed the popular suggestion of Calkulin's Google Play app. I installed it and everything was fine.
Ever since I flashed the lastest OTA via TWRP, I have this constant error pop up and it comes back every 2 seconds.
"Unfortunately, the processcom.google.process.gapps has stopped."
How do I solve this issue? Thanks!

I have the exact same issue...and I also used Calkulin's zip....so the only problem I was having before manually applying 17L was the 1 popup when I rebooted saying messaging app stopped. I did a nandroid backup 10 minutes before I applied 17L which is what I had to revert back to since those processcom.google.process.gapps has stopped messages make the phone unusable. I guess I will just stay on cm-12.0-YNG1TASOTL until there is a fix....don't want to lose all my data with a factory reset. From what I have heard the update is not worth all that.

I am doing a clean flash....I did a titanium backup of my apps
Went into TWRP 2.8.6
Did Factory Reset
Installed Zip
Wipe devik/cache.....twrp will ask you to root
go through set up...I choose to set up phone as new device so Google would not try to put all my apps back
Update the SuperSU Binary if needed
DL Titanium Backup from the play store...and restore your apps...only 60% done with restore process but I hope it works....so far no pop-ups
