Apps keep crashing (multiple) - Honor 8 Questions & Answers

I have had a problem lately with more and more of my apps crashing when trying to run them.
Here are some of the apps that keep crashing.
Dolphin browser : Crashes when going to any website. (Fixed by clearing data VIA Titanium backup)
Injustice 2 : crashes when trying to log in (guest or other)
There may be others , but have a lot of apps.
I cleared cache and data on the apps with no resolve.
Not sure what else can do , probably something to with a conflicting program is my guess.
Honor 8 .
Fully rooted
Adaway, Youtube Adaway, Xposed ( Disable Flag Secure )(Lucky Patcher), Fdroid.
Possible app conflicts.
Any suggestions on what to do ?

[FIX] Avoid system hang/reboot when deinstalling apps with xprivacy enabled.

Hey guys,
until xprivacy gets fixed, if you deinstall a user app the system will hang and eventually reboot (if you dont do it yourself alrdy).
The workaround I found for this is to convert the app to a system app with titanium backup and then do the deinstallation.
Shouldnt have any downsides, just some extra clicks.

TYVM, I was experiencing this a few weeks ago & couldn't figure it out. I did end up stop using xprivacy but never made the connection. GJ!
What version are you using? I just installed xprivacy on my Note 2 and I noticed random reboots
until I removed it. I'm running xprivacy 1.10. I wonder if I should move it to system app?
Any side effect of moving xprivacy to system app? I did not see any mention of it?
Thank you. I like xprivacy but it keeps rebooting I can't use it.

Tronsmart TS7 (aka Glacier TS7) installs random apps without permission

I have a (4GB) Tronsmart TS7 (some times known as a Alps Glacier TS7). It's a Chinese MTK6589 based phone running Android 4.2 purchased from geekbuying.
For the most part the device is stock, there are next to no pre-installed apps apart from the usual, and the only additional apps I have installed are: Playstation, Steam, ColorNote, Shuttle+, Root Explorer DI Radio, Chrome & Gmail
The problem I have is that there are apps appearing on the device that I am not installing. So far it has been the same set of apps that appear:
Mobo Market
UC Browser
TrustGo Security
DU Battery Saver
337 Game Master
GameCenter
(there may be more)
These apps don't start appearing right after a factory reset, but start to arrive 1-2weeks later. They also seem to be packaged similarly; when I say packaged I mean opening them seems to prompt with the same menu & style (accept licence etc) before it gets to the main app. Also, after you open the app from the app drawer it then creates an icon on the desktop. Maybe opening it actually does the installing?
The apps themselves seem to be legit.
I have factory reset the device (twice), and changed my Google password but they are still appearing. They don't show up in my Play store history so they must be coming from elsewhere.
My main concern is that if it is downloading things without my permission, what might it be uploading ? Not to mention wasting my 3g data etc.
So I have a few questions:
Should I be (really) worried?
Is there a way to monitor this? eg connect to a wifi hotspot and packet capture the network traffic? or maybe use a process monitor (the ones I've tried so far haven't shown anything) to see if there is some sort of script in the background?
Can it be stopped?
Thanks in advance, I would be interested to know if anyone else has/had this problem?
I have the same problem.
I haven't tried flashing some other ROM yet, but I guess that is the only way to get it to stop installing those things.
Have you actually found any other roms to install?
For anybody's information:
You may have noticed how you always end up with a 'Tronsmart.mp4' video file appearing in your gallery app. This is damn annoying since it appears twice, once on the internal and once on the external SD card. There is an '\system\app\CopyTest.apk' file which creates both of these. Should be safe to delete it and thus prevent the file(s) appearing
I have actually decompiled this apk. It works as a service that runs when MEDIA_UNMOUNTED or MEDIA_MOUNTED is invoked, and does absolutely nothing else.
I have the same problem, those random apps installing and the video always in my gallery. I have managed to stop tge apps by using a firewall and allowing only my apps that i want to use the internet. I havent found a solution though to fix the problem. Probably tronsmart is spamming its customers...

What Firewall did you use? I might be able to use something like that to pinpoint the app that's causing this.
Sory for the late reply. I am usin "android firewall" free from google play store.
USB debugging disabled stopped it on mine
edit: not that easy, wasn't enough. made some cleanup by disabing/removing some system apps. seems to work so far although there are still some strange events like superuser crashing and right after that system downloader.apk reappearing. haven't seen any other junk coming back
these are the apk's i removed:
systemupdateassistant
systemdownloader
omacp
mtkbt
midtest
galaxy4
fusedlocation
engineermode
engineermodesim
cds_info
basicdreams.

Remove "android system webview"?

Can I remove the "android system webview" app since I never use? thanks!
If you are rooted, make a backup, then use titanium backup to freeze it.
Then you can see if it causes any issues. If you get a lots of FC's or any apps start misbehaving then just unfreeze it.
If you get a bootloop restore your backup.
That's the best way to see if you can delete any app that you are unsure about.
However, you may use this app more than you think, its used to allow apps to open web pages within the app itself as opposed to opening a browser.
Be ready to say good bye to your chrome performance and web based google apps....

No not technically i restore from google once im back in the phone
I'm experiencing the same problem with my pixel 2 xl. Only have gravitybox and native clipboard modules. Did you ever find a solution?
Try running this line in terminal (su):
Code:
cmd package bg-dexopt-job
If that seems to fix the crashing, try creating a Tasker task that runs it every morning when you're not using the phone, e.g. around 5 or 6 am.
If you're having issues with Facebook Messenger crashing, you'll need to go into the /data/app/com.facebook.orca/oat/art/ folder and delete the base.odex file. Alternatively, you could add the following line in a second task that follows the first:
Code:
rm /data/app/com.facebook.orca*/oat/arm/base.odex
Running those two tasks, in that order, will dexopt all apps as well as delete Messenger's base.odex file should it reappear.
If you have other apps that continue to crash after the dexopt, you could try adding further tasks which delete their corresponding base.odex files after the dexopt process. Just be aware that any apps without a base.odex file will have a much slower initial load time, and that not all apps respond well to having their base.odex file removed. Proceed with caution.
Android's built in maintenance jobs include dexopt, but it's impossible to know precisely when it will execute, hence the task forcing it followed by the task deleting the base.odex file. Also, timing it so that it runs within an hour of waking up and removing the phone from the charger gets it as close as you can to ensuring that your own tasks aren't rendered moot by the system's built in maintenance tasks.
Some people also have luck using the ARTDeoptimizer Xposed module for apps that crash with Xposed installed, but I am not one of those people. It seemed to have no effect and I found I had much better, if not perfect luck just removing the base.odex files myself manually or via Tasker profiles.

Native Clipboard may be your problem. That is one module I had to give up on as it seemed to constantly cause crashes in incompatible apps on Oreo.

Uninstall cloned dual messenger apps?

I tried that for 1st time on WhatsApp & then I noticed some battery drain. I uninstalled the cloned app, but in Apps, I still see cloned apps created automatically by the service such as Android system webview & Google play services with no uninstall/disable buttons.
Is there a way to get rid of these please?

hello has anyone heard of a solution for this issue or if one was already provided in this comment's original thread, can a lick be provided for it? i think I'm having the same issue from the context of this comment. Maybe the only difference is that my phone is not rooted which im sure will end up being a factor in whether there is anyway to resolve this or not. samsung galaxy j7 pro j7271 wth it has too many names out there lol. meteopcs 2017 variant if that helps. nonrooted 8.1 and trying to stay that way if possible as this is my only phone. thanks for your time!

Try clearing data of Dual Messenger in Settings - Apps & then disable/freeze it. I don't remember how I fixed it but since I'm using custom roms, I think I wiped data in twrp after backing up me apps & reinstalling the rom.
On stock rom if disabling the app doesn't work, u may have to reset.

Thanks! For some reason, I'm cannot disable it. I'll give resetting a try and post back whether that works or not. I had considered resetting, but was being stubborn trying to figure out another way.
Success Uninstalling Shadow Services
I have a Samsung S8 and was facing the same issue when I searched for "Uninstall Dual Messenger" and found this thread. I resolved the issue and decided to return here and say what I did to get them all uninstalled. I didn't have a "Secure Folder" also, I already opened the "Dual Messenger" setting and disabled the available options. The missing step for me was to go to Apps > ANT+ and click Force Stop and Disable. I had already uninstalled "Copy Of Messenger" when I discovered that it doesn't remove the copy of play services and everything else. Removing the ANT+ App removed about five or six "Copy Of.." Apps as well. I hope this is enlightening. After removing all of your Dual Apps, Copy Of.. Apps & Secure Folder, Remove the ANT+ App. On Galaxy S8 With The Latest Updates As Of 6/9/20 I alas successfully removed the remnant shadow service copies that were associated with Dual Messenger.
