[Q] Why can't I set device admin? ("Null has stopped") - General Questions and Answers

Hi, I downloaded Where's My Droid from the app store and in order to use the remote lock and wipe feature you have to set the app as a device admin. Whenever I try to do that my phone reports this message "Unfortunately null has stopped." At first I thought it was just an issue with the Where's My Droid app but I tried to set other apps as device admins and received the same results. Can anyone help me find a solution to this problem? Thank you very much.

[Q] Droid Android 2.2 FRG22D Exchange Problem

I was not sure where to post this thread so if this is not the right place, sorry.
After manual update from Android 2.2 FRG01B to FRG22D downloaded from droid-life the Email app crashes when trying to setup corporate Exchange(2010) account:
"The application Email(process com.google.android.email) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again." Options it gives are to "Force close" or "Report".
Steps Taken:
1. Tried to begin by both selecting the yellow mail icon and also going to settings, Accounts & sync, Add account.
2. Then input my username and password.
3. Have selected both Manual and Next button both taking me to input server information.
4. Input server information, double/triple checked with IT for correct input.
5. Use secure connection (SSL) is selected.
6. Tried both selected and unselected for Accept all SSL certificates.
7. Select Next button.
8. Get screen with progress bar that says Checking for Incoming Server Settings that runs for a couple seconds.
9. This is where it crashes....
Anyone else have this issue or knowledge about this?
Thanks.
Same Problem
I have the same problem after getting to over the air upgrade to FRG22D from Verizon this morning.
Nice to know it is not just me.
Me too
Same problem... would love to know how to fix this. Until then, back to using TouchDown... =(
Same here, if anyone has a fix or ideas let me know. Have deleted the account, hard-booted, etc, etc.
also have problem
Hi, I also have this issue. Hopefully someone has had some luck.
I have a droid 1 on 2.2.
For reference, several other of my coworkers have successfully set up their hd2, droid x, and droid 1 phones to work with our exchange, so I know my settings are good.

[Q] Umm I have a problem.

Every like 5 minutes, a box pops up saying "SORRY!, The application mail (process com.htc.android.mail) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again."
It also displays this message every time I open either my contacts or the mail app.
So.. I can't open my email or contacts.. and I need those.
Any ideas, or suggestions on how to fix this? Thanks!
did you root your phone?
did you flash any rom?
My first response would be to wipe the app data. Assuming you already did this and it didn't do anything, I searched for a possible solution. I found something below in the link.
http://www.nexusoneforum.net/forum/...android-email-has-stopped-unexpectedly-2.html
I tried deleting the account setup and everything and it did not fix anything.
so FYI, it turns out it had nothing to do with the setup, since it has been working all this time. However, as I found somewhere else, a certain email was causing this problem to happen. For some reason, a newsletter/email from buy.com was causing this problem. I basically went to my inbox from my computer... then moved the last few days of email to a temporary folder. Sure enough the email app stopped crashing. I moved the emails back into the inbox until I found the one that was causing it.

[solved] com.android.phone has stopped and also contacts and messaging

[SOLVED]
I can not get into the phone call (green phone button) to the dialer, this is the main problem; when I open it, it hangs for a few seconds then I get a message box centered in the middle of the screen: Contacts has stopped. - only OK button to press; and pressing returns to homescreen.
Everytime after sending an SMS I get: "messaging has stopped", although still I can send.
I can access the contacts normally and also everything else is fine. when I start calling someone from there, it works also fine, with the resemling dialer(?) look while talking. But then right after finishing call, again a message pops up: com.android.phone has stopped
- resulting that the calls are not being logged.
the app "GO Contacts Ex" would be ok as an alternative, but here again, after the call ends, the message comes up: com.android.phone has stopped. also other apps like contact+/dialer+ and exDialer&contacts seem like that all using somehow com.android.phone in the end and causing that error message box coming up.
if no fix, is there an alternative app totally replacing the usage of com.android.phone? so that I could use another app?
I have found and tried some suggestions from google to this problem, but none of them helped..
deleting cache in: apps -> all -> contacts memory and contacts and phone, & reboot; - several tries, also SIM card out, and reloads, re-sync;
uninstalled recent updated apps; reboots, sim out, re sync etc.
It seems like there is one small thing interrupting but I can be wrong.
I dont wish to do a factory reset first, and lose all my apps and settings. Before doing that desperately, I would like know if someone could help me out in here? It could be one small setting or stuff to do
I am using JB 4.1.2 rooted
it is possible that I disabled some important processes earlier which caused that, but I enabled them all again and restarted, still nothing changed. otherwise this problem started surely after recent app updates, which i also tried undone and checked
any help is appreciated!
SOLUTION
1. Just stop and deactivate the apps "phone", "contacts" as well as the "logsprovider". And delete each caches.
2. Reboot. Activate these apps. Reboot again.
Another reason for "com.android.phone has stopped" coming up is when you previously deactivated com.movial.ipprovider, or if it is damaged, which is needed to connect to the internet. The error starts coming permanently as soon the phone trys to connect to the internet.
Solution: just stop com.movial.ipprovider, delete its cache and reboot! (or reinstall it)
I can avoid the first two problems (contacts and messaging has stopped) by simply using a different app which I at least like better (Dialer+ / Contacts+ including sms), and have deactivated the stock versions now (contact and messaging). - and I am happy with that!
the problem with com.android.phone still remains after each call, for both incoming and outgoing. the bothering thing is that error message box, and that the calls are not being logged at all, but sms messages are logged fine.
(I could not find any app that could be an alternative to this com.android.phone, similar to the contacts and messages app. all the 3rd party caller and dialer apps uses com.android.phone in the end when dialing. if i uninstall com.android.phone, there is only skype as an alternative to call. and uninstalling skype gives then no possible ways to call a number. so I need to fix this somehow.)
problems:
1. message "the process com.android.phone has stopped" after every calls.
2. no calls are logged
please find attached a logcat logs when that happens, maybe someone can understand what is causing this (look for com.android.phone).
what is for example E ActivityThread: Failed to find provider info for logs ?
and what can you suggest me?
I got it !!!
I searched and located the file on where the calls logs are being saved: data/data/com.sec.android.provider.logsprovider/databases/logs.db
As I thought it could be damaged. I cleared the cache from LogsProvider and restarted it, and the error is now gone since then!
But clearing also deleted all the files in its folder including the logs.db. Unfortunately it doesnt recreate this files, even after a reboot. How can I get these structure and basic files again?
Can someone copy this for me? or can I use any logprovider files from internet?...
will check ...
SOLVED !!!!
after reactivating Contacts & Phone, also a brand new folder structure with logs.db was recreated automatically !!!!!
Everything is running smoothly now!!! yay!!!
Just FYI and to summarize, in case it happens to you. it was either logs.db file or something in logsprovider folder damaged.
SOLUTION: just stopped com.android.phone and logsprovider service, and deleted the cache from both. then reactivating them should be ok! then just reboot!
cheers
You mention this "reactivating" step. Can you explain more about how to do this part?

Hello Kenkamm,
1. Just stop and deactivate the apps "phone", "contacts" as well as the "logsprovider". And delete each caches.
2. Reboot. And activate these apps. Edit: reboot again.

I was looking at this and hoping these drastic moves could fix the reason I cannot share my contacts using the share command. It force closes afterwards.
Sadly, I've tried all of this and my contacts still cannot share. So you have any idea what could be wrong with my Galaxy S Relay? I am rooted (but using stock 4.1.2) at this time, and have only removed bloatware such as Evernote, Slacker, etc.
Thank you !!

Worked like a charm on Samsung S5 Mini.
sorry @furboom1240 i missed that topic here and didnt see your message earlier. but i have no idea what could have solved your issue either. it relates to something else i guess, hope u had luck in the meantime and solved
@DeViBos thanks another new user and first post, i appreciate! welcome to xda and have fun
Is it possible to try this method to other brand like HTC example? Because Phone can't force stop and there's no logsprovider. Where it can be found?
Just as I will do now. Thank you sooooo much I thot my phone was a hacked mess. The world just became a better place!
Same problem on my Redmi 1S

Sorry for waking an old thread. I am facing a similar problem.
My Device is -
Xiaomi Redmi 1SW (Rooted)
Android 4.4.4
MIUI 7.2.3.0 KHCMIDA
I have removed all bloatware as mentioned in this post (http://forum.xda-developers.com/xia...-to-remove-bloatware-list-miui-t2999283/page2) and also another app called 'Xiaomi Service Framework' if these are causing the problem.
I was earlier facing this problem when I was using MIUI 7.1.1.0 KHCMICH (Rooted and Xposed installed). It suddenly started occurring as soon as I connected my phone to the PC before even doing anything. The pop-ups (Unfortunately Phone has stopped) became irritating. Luckily, I had USB debugging enabled. I connected the phone to the computer and put the following in the CMD -
adb devices
adb shell
su
pm disable com.android.phone
exit
exit
exit
Then the window stopped appearing. So I (mark this) turned off Wi-Fi and disconnected phone from PC. I was using the phone normally for few hours. But I realized that outgoing calls on my phone were not possible (the system dialer (com.android.contacts) closed after pressing the call button) and no incoming calls were being recorded (I use the in-built call record feature in the system dialer app). So I connected my phone back to the computer and wrote
pm enable com.android.phone
in place of pm disable com.android.phone keeping all above mentioned commands same.
This time the window did not appear. I was able to make and record calls perfectly. But on the same day, when I again switched on Wi-Fi, the window started reappearing. So I used my device by keeping the com.android.phone disabled for few days.
After few days, I got an OTA update to MIUI 7.2.3.0 KHCMIDA. I thought it would solve the problem.
I also wanted to reset my device because it had lot of junk. So, I flashed the update, rooted the device, removed all bloatware apps again (which came after the update) and shut down my phone. The error window hadn't appeared yet though com.android.phone was enabled and Wi-Fi was connected.
Then I booted into recovery and erased the cache and data partitions (NOT the internal storage). Then after phone was booted and as soon as all setup was done, the error window started coming up again.
So, I don't think that data/data/com.sec.android.provider.logsprovider/databases/logs.db has any problem because it was erased completely after I wiped data.
I need HELP !!!
I get the same message (com.android.phone and a few others) over and over again and my phone is veeeeery slow. It all started after I put my SIM-card into the phone for the first time. I have an S7 with SuperMan-ROM installed. I can't deactivate my "contacts", it just doesn't let me push the deactivate-button. Plus I can't find the phone-app or logsprovider. Is there a different appmanager apart from the stock which I could use to delete and deactivate?
Hi
i have problem in samsung j5 2016 regarding com.android.phone has been stop this message shown after each second and also not showing mobile network

[Q] HELP! Constant message prevents operation

I am having a constant window that says "weather has stopped" The message comes so frequently and quickly that I am unable to do anything literally. I'm told it's a cache issue and I need to stop the app. I can't find the app listed in Running Apps, and if I could I couldn't do anything about it. How can I stop the app or cure my problem. My phone is totally useless it is a working bricked phone. All help and suggestions are welcome. Thanks.
Didn't you already asked this in another thread? Maybe you need to do a factory reset.

Cannot set developer mode using mobile app quest 2

My oculus quest is having black screen issues. I did everything and nothing helped. Now I trying to set developer mode using mobile app to disable proximity sensor, but the app shows the error in the picture. it says "we are having problems try again". I tried a lot of things, I was able to set developer mode before factory reset. After that never worked again. My company account is verified. Now I'm trying to use logcat to debug oculus app to see if I can find something in logs, but I don't even know if it is possible. I saw I lot of messages but don't know the tag filter I should use. Any ideas?
i think you have to download the oculus SDK and activate it with it....

Regarding setting developer mode and encountering an error in the mobile app, it's unfortunate that it's not cooperating(here). Since you've already tried several troubleshooting steps, it's worth reaching out to Oculus Support for specific guidance on resolving this issue with the app.
As for using logcat to debug the Oculus app, it's indeed a potential avenue for finding insights in the logs. When using logcat, you can filter messages by specifying a tag to narrow down the output. For debugging the Oculus app, you can try filtering by the tag "OVR" or "Oculus" to see if it provides any relevant information. Keep an eye out for error messages or anything that stands out as an issue related to the black screen problem you're facing.
