Hey all. Just started today. I go to my settings and click to type in the top search bar. After a few seconds it goes right back to the settings menu. Any ideas? I've tried going to the settings app and clearing data/cache. That's about it. I did do a lot of updates on the Google play store today and I'm on 9.5.9 now. Thanks
Works now. Went to settings, apps, show all, show system apps, click settings suggestions, clear data/cache.

I changed my UAString for the built in browser to Desktop but now whenever I open the app it force closes immediately. I tried doing a factory reset hoping that it would reset the browser settings but the browser is still force closing. I even tried the solutions posted in (forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=7237114) for the Vibrant and no luck there either.
I am new to android so I am hoping that someone here can give me a solution to get the browser working again. Also, my phone is rooted and non-market apps are enabled.
Nobody has any ideas as to how to fix this?
I guess I should have posted it when more people would be online instead of four in the morning.

I had the same problem. Go to settings from the home screen. Then applications. Then manage applications. Then press the menu key and change the filter to show all applications. The browser should show up in the list. Select it and delete all app data. the browser should work now.

No luck, still force closing even after deleting the app data (not sure how though since all settings should be cleared).
Any other ideas by any chance?
I just thought I would put this out there for anyone who might be experiencing the same problem I was on my Captivate.
After many flashes, restores with Titanium Backup, updates, etc, I found myself unable to send email from the Gmail app. I could read email and download attachments just fine, but whenever I hit the send button, they just hung there. Reboots did nothing... in fact I didn't really notice it until I went to the "view labels" and noticed that there were a ton of messages in my Outbox.
Anyway, there is a quick fix for this:
- Go to: Settings > Applications > Manage Applications
- Then open Menu and select Filter
- Choose "All" (which means Show All, not Filter All)
- Now, find the Gmail app and select it.
- Click the "Clear Cache" button.
After doing this, everything in my Outbox finally sent and everything was right and good in the world again.
hope this helps...

Were you looking at the Gmail app or the Gmail data?
Gmail data will be greyed out, because the whole thing is cache.
The Gmail app will become greyed out once the cache has been cleared.
Hello!
Market crashes every time. Stock rom.
What's my problem?
I had similar issues at first. Go to Settings/Applications/Manage Applications/All, scroll to Market and clear cache. Worked for me.
Have you tried to go to the google system framework and cleared data and stopped after you did the market then reboot and see if that helps.
Nice. Thx!
I had not used this phone for months 9backup phone), and when I dusted it off and flashed a different ROM, I could not update the over 20 out of date apps on play store (server error). I found a possible fix (market Enabler APP-) but no luck.
I saw a post pop up when i started entering the thread title, but it did not completely cover a fix that I found on a website (SeberTech) that cleared it up. I had treid clearing out Play Store data, but that was not enough. Here is what works if anyone runs into this Note - forced stop and then cleared data):
" Solution:
Follow these steps to fix this problem:
1. On your Galaxy S3 menu, go to Settings, then select Apps, then All, and finally Google Play Store.
2. Under Google Play Store, press the Clear Data option and then Force Stop.
3. Go back to Settings again, and then Apps, then select All, and then locate Google services framework from the sorted list. In case you cannot find Google Services Framework from the sorted list, try to scroll right to the bottom of the list. Sometimes, this item is disabled. If it is disabled, you need to enable it first, so you can proceed to the next step.
4. Under Google Services Framework, clear data and then Force stop.
5. Go back to Settings, then Apps, and then All.
6. From the All menu, locate and select Download Manager and the select Clear Data.
After doing all the aforementioned procedures, turn off your phone for about 60 seconds and then turn it back on. Try to access Google Play Store this time and it should be working fine. "
Just like it says. I am having a issues with some apps not saving after I set them. It happens when I shut the app down or reboot and I find that the phone is not doing what I set for the app. I open the app to check the settings and it has all been erased like new. If I keep the app open it runs all the settings correctly and saves them but as soon as I close the app or reboot it some of those apps default like it is a brand new app. Any thoughts?
Thanks

Man I hope someone can help us out with a lil insight. Thanks for the reply. I thought I might have screwed up a few things while setting up this new phone. I am on the latest build stable.
is it the permissions being cleared because its being "Paused". under the app's app info page there is a toggle Unused app settings--> Pause app activity if unused. make sure this is off.

No that doesn't appear to be that either. I checked all the apps that seem to be having this problem. Unfortunately that isn't it either. Thank you for the suggestion! IDK if a reflash without wiping would help?
I have never seen this or experienced it. Have you done "something" different? Tried to root, or install a ROM, or...???? If it keeps happening EVEN to native/default/system apps then I would recommend a factory reset with a low level cache wipe...if it can be done on this phone.

I would go for the reflash, and in the end, go for a clean flash.
I didn't experience this problem, but I did have an issue where every time I set a conversation as a priority, the second I left that screen, it reset back to default. I don't have the issue now, but I've also reflashed since then.
I have fixed it by wiping the affected apps data and then uninstalling them and readding the settings. Thanks guys!
