About a week or two ago, my Note 10.1 started telling me pretty frequently that my Gmail app has stopped (pop up where screen goes dark and you can click Ok or Report). Clicking ok exits out and the app functions fine after that but will give the popup again 5-30 min later. It seems totally random but has become frequent enough to be annoying, especially when I am watching videos. I cleared the cache in the app settings but that doesn't seem to have stopped it.
I am avoiding clearing data because I have a lot of subfolders set up with unique notifications and its a pain in the ass to get that all back the way I like it.... but could that be the resolution? Anyone else encountering this issue?

I didn't think this would be a development thread so i'm starting it here. This is just some of the random issues I'm having.. and was wondering if anyone else was having these or any other issues.
The unknown notification on lockscreen is apparently for other people too.. and i've noticed it's dealing with the stock messaging app. Has anyone figured out how to turn off the counter on the stock launcher for the stock messaging app if you're using a different app like Handcent?
Random lockups. My phone will not come out of sleep.. or i won't be able to unlock it. nothing will be on the screen and i have to pull the battery in order to do anything.
random FC of an app.. or just not even notified of the FC just get this vibrate then double vibrate and everything crashes back to the home screen. First did it when i started setting up the device. and done it a few times since. I've also had one time that was continuous of "vibrate...double vibrate" over and over and over and over.. you get the picture.. and i had to pull the battery.
Is anyone else having these issues or anything similar? Or should I run back to the store and exchange this sucker?

No problems here at the moment, had it about a week and havent seen any of the problems you are mentioning. But this is just for me.
I get this hard crash (vibrate... double vibrate... soft reboot) at random times. It seems to be when I'm running several apps at once. For example, driving to work,I use (Google) Navigation and Doggcatcher for playing podcasts, while GPS and Bluetooth are both enabled.
These apps have been rock solid for me with the 5 other Android phones I've had. Besides, the crashes happen with other combinations of apps. Come to think of it, audio playback is usually (always?) involved, be it with Xiia or the stupid built-in music app.

that's what i've been noticing. but sometimes i'm not even running many apps. i haven't put much on the phone since i've been having these issues, but these apps work perfectly even on my G1. i think i'm just having odd issues with my phone pretty sure its getting exchanged on monday.
I hav the odd vibrating too...Not sure if I should return the phone or not.

i think the "odd vibrating" where its a single vibration.. then 2 quick vibrations.. is a sign of an FC.. not 100% sure.. but thats what i see going on when it happens to me. I've also noticed when i'm outside and thinks i'm selecting things or moving the trackball thing. always to the right.. i think my phone is faulty..

I get the double vibrate and bam, FC's. Usually when im trying to open up and or lots of stuff at once on my phone or using a different launcher "adw" or others and it would happen. Wheres the fix ey.
is anyone having a problem with notifications? i use GoSms, and it doesn't seem to sound the ringtone i have selected, the message just comes in silently..... and same with Beejive IM, and i think K9 mail. all these things worked perfectly on my EPIC 4G.
i was using handcent.. and it was working fine.. minus the unlock screen unknown notification. but everything else has been making sounds just fine.

Dang ok, well I may have to unroot mine if possible, and take it back, haha. So I'll be watching for a response to your question in the other thread.
Edit: I fixed my notifications..... somehow my notification volume had been turned all the way down, so I wasn't getting any sounds for texts, emails, etc. Not sure how it got turned down, but sometimes I guess settings can get jarred by various things we do to our phones.
Hi
I updated my Nexus 5 to Lollipop via the autoupdater and while I initially disliked the look and how really counterintuitive everything suddenly was, it has now become practically unusable.
For starters, apps crash all the time. Simply using Chrome or UC browser results in a crash back to "desktop" every few seconds and when the browser is reopened it is back to the main page having lost any tabs etc.
This also happens with other apps such as the music player which closes and when reopened my audiobook is reset back a random amount.
When this crash happens, I find myself on the main page of the phone but it is totally blank for a few seconds until it jerks right, then left and some app icons appear and then freezes a few more and the rest appear, as if it has reset.
I have today discovered this 'crash' happens even when the phone is locked now as my wife tried to call me and got VMail so sent a few texts which I didn't get til I unlocked my phone and experienced the same blank screen and slow reappearance of apps and finally a missed call and 3 texts.
All in all my phone is pretty useless now. Any apps I run inevitably crash and unless my phone is unlocked I cannot receive calls or emails/texts.
Any ideas or plans for this shambles to be fixed?
Thanks
Easy to fix - wipe it and flash a factory image...
Had this phone a week now, mainly pleased apart from a few annoying bugs, video recordings jitter and stutter, touch screen sometimes not responding, However the thing that is annoying me the most is after a while apps I've opened keep disappearing from recent apps, and I can tell it's closing them because there is a delay when I run the same app again even though it should be in memory ! I've disabled all power intensive crap notifications and stopped it from closing anything but are still being forced closed, facebook, Instagram, gmail etc, my nexus 6p doesn 't do this and still shows recent apps from weeks ago not a few hours.
Bump,
Wow no one else has noticed apps you've opened after a while disappear from recent apps ? I've never owned a single android phone that does this apart from this one.
It happens to me to, it doesn't show the apps anymore in recents for some reason but when I open them it's there instantly like it's kept in memory. Only happens when my device is sleeping for a long time.

I think it seems it's in memory because it's so quick but I think they are being closed, never had this problem with my Nexus 6p
Yes this is happening to me too with China version AL00C00...every morning I'm locking in recent apps list Facebook, messenger, viber, Instagram because I want notifications to comes instantly from this apps... That's the only way.... Anyway I had noticed that sometimes after 10 or 15 hours some of them disappear from the list but still running... When I open them they start instantly and I can see that they still locked again in recent apps...
I don't know why this happens...

I don't know whats going on but I've even disable these social apps from the "ignore optimization" battery fields and sometime some apps are still disappearing, not had this problem on any phone i've owned previously.
Yesterday I installed DU Cleaner I clicked the button it did the usual clear cache stopped running apps etc, but I noticed at the end it stopped some startup services and apps.
I have just rebooted my phone, it took about 10 mins to boot up not he usual 1 or 2 , then I was getting a lot of app errors unfortunately*** has stopped working etc, and now it is supper sluggish even wringing this post out, every few words it freezes and takes time to catch up.
There is nothing on the app to adjust startup items, I me ruined on a magisk thread that I have a problem with startup managers they just don't seem to work for me so I have no idea how to resolve my problem.
Edit: I tried whiping cache and delvik but one weird thing when I usually do that it has to optimise over 300 apps as usually it's slow but normal but now it only does about 150 and it's done withing a few seconds. One of the apps that's constantly crashing is WiFi direct share, the error message keeps popping up
Hey guys! For the past few weeks, there's a random clip of a song that will play on my phone, almost as if I have a notification. But, there won't be anything in the notification bar. Sometimes, I don't even have any apps open when this happens. The "song" sounds like something from an Indiana Jones movie. It's maybe about 10 seconds long, give or take. I've tried uninstalling apps that I've downloaded right before this started happening, but it still happens. I've also tried installing an anti-virus (AVG, Malwarebytes), as well as a notification logger (nothing out of the ordinary) and an app that forces a refresh similar to a restart (Fast Reboot). It's driving me up a wall, but resetting my phone to factory conditions is a lot of work, so I thought I would turn to you guys to see if anybody else has a similar thing happening to them. For what it's worth, I'm running the latest Android OS on the Pixel 2 XL. Thanks guys!
