OnePlus 7 pro rooted.
When I try to open Chrome or Chrome Beta I just get a box saying info/close/feedback.
I force stopped didn't help.
I cleared cache didn't help.
I cleared storage didn't help.
I Uninstalled updates. That helped, but I lost updated features I wanted.
Even still, after a couple days, it auto updated and I'm in the same pickle.
Why is this happening?
How do I fix it?
Chrome is a system app, so I can't Uninstall. Should I use a root app to Uninstall it anyway? Then DL again?
Nobody?
I'm all alone with this problem?
I DL'd Chrome Canary and it fixed all my problems except black mode, which works fine for me.
I'd still like to know what is wrong to make Regular Chrome and Chrome Beta not work right though. Especially because Canary isn't known to be very stable. I'm probably gonna have to revert at some point or chose a totally different browser. (I have zopera, but still prefer Chrome)

I have a problem with Google Chrome and I'm currently on CROMI 3.3 atm. I remembered I uninstalled Google Chrome once before and recently I just wanted to add it back so I could make use of ease with that nice Google account syncing with other synced devices. I tried installing from Play Store, and i got an error code -24. I couldn't find any information on that, so I tried doing 3rd party app installer and even tried using airdroid to do an install from my PC. Both of which could not even install as well.
I can only remember that Chrome was installed as a system app before, but I never did so. The only thing that acknowledges Chrome's existence on my tablet is Titanium Backup. There's a strikethrough line for com.android.chrome, but it doesn't give me any other option to do anything with it. No backup, freezing, or uninstall. Oddly enough, I don't know how I don't have a backup for the apk either.
The point is I'm trying to make here is, should I reflash the previous CROMI that did install Chrome with its package? I was on 3.2 before coming straight to 3.3. Is it safe to do that?
The one other thing I'm hoping would work is ask someone on here for their Chrome backup and restore it through Titanium. It's a chance that it would probably work, but I would like some thoughts on that.
Any help is appreciated, thanks... ~__~
most specifically my Facebook app. whenever I force quit it or reboot the phone, my Facebook app reverts back to an old version. it says its the most up to date version when I check the version # and there's no updates available. I am rooted and have turned auto update off on the app within play store. this is really obnoxious having to uninstall and then reinstall the app multiple times a day bc the old version is AWFUL. any help would be appreciated GREATLY!

What ROM are you running and what version of Google play store do you have? Haven't noticed this issue.

stock ROM and 4.5.10. its actually not just or force quits and reboots but that generates the problem 100% of the time. I noticed sometimes when I go to my Facebook app it'll just be an old version. although it has the same and most up to date version when I check the version #. when I uninstall and then install again its back to the newest version. reverts randomly a few hours later.

Is it only the Facebook app doing this? I'd try wiping data/cache for app, going to recovery, backup, wipe data/cache, reboot and try to see if problem persists. If it does, something between the Facebook app and google play is not working correct.
heres screenshot of app before and after a soft reboot.

it is the only app doing it that ive noticed but since im fairly new to android, its hard for me to tell older versions from new ones, this one is just SO obvious and frankly that old version is just awful.
i wiped data/cache from the app, went into recovery and wiped cache partition but didnt wipe the data, i assume that completely wipes the phone? sorry like i said i have only had this phone for 2 weeks from long time iphone user minus a short stint with a moto droid in 2009.

It's perfectly fine. Yes, don't wipe the data since that will wipe everything. But, since this did not clear up the issue, it sounds like a Facebook problem. I've heard many people complain about layaway build. Best thing I could say to do is try uninstall, reboot phone, and try reinstall. If that doesn't work, I'd try to find last version Facebook apk file (or current Facebook version apk file) NOT from play store, install,and wait for Facebook to fix the app from this problem. Still seeing possible other way to fix. By installing apk not from play store would allow phone to hopefully not reset to old version since play store doesn't realize you have Facebook anymore (since not from play store). A quick work around until fixed.
If this is facebook only, it might very well be a Facebook problem. Especially when you say that it changes even though the version of the apk stays the same.
Facebook has been testing the new layout by having both the new and the old one in the same apk, then they enable or disable it server side by accounts in order to try different versions of the new layout for different people and see the different responses in usage and so on. This sounds like a bug with that mechanism inside the Facebook app, and is not fixable as such. I for one have yet to see the new layout on my device.
You could try clearing the data for the facebook app to see if that helps.

Are you sure you aren't registered to facebook beta testing?
99.9% sure as I've never opted into a beta test for android.
Does anyone use Motoconnect Chrome browser extension? It has been working great since the update for me but failing miserably tonight for some reason. Anyone having the same problems?
I use it all the time. I tried to open earlier and it wouldnt. I also noticed my gmail tracker isn't working. Probably an issue with Chrome.

Maybe has to do with this....
Google begins blocking Chrome extensions downloaded outside their Web Store

Sent From My Droid Ultra
Seems to be working fine this morning...
Been working fine for weeks and the past few days no connection?
Uninstalled extension re-installed cleared cache and data from app on phone. Signed in and out several times on computer... NOTHING.
All,
I have read and experienced force closes when updating to this latest version 42.0.2311.129.
I have experienced force closes without error messages for a few apps after the update. Uninstalling and re-installing does not resolve the issue!
After reading some others who experience this as well I advise you all not to update this TURD !
After I uninstalled this update all my apps started working correctly again.
Its nothing more that Chrome without the shell.
Does anyone know if this can be permanently removed ?
Thanks in Advance
Update 4/25/2015 - as per suggested below you can use TB to freeze this nugget as so it wont update.
Update 4/30/2015 - You can get the latest release of this app here:

Thanks for the tip and the guys over on Fluent. Just froze it it TiBU. Went to Play and is was locked and loaded to update.
I wasn't having issues until the latest update a couple days ago. Now I've noticed my reddit client crops out all the time and several other apps close without error
Ahhh.. so is this fricking thing the reason most of my apps are closing lately??
I was just about to post seeing if anyone else has recently had problems with a lot of apps (Kik not letting keyboard open, tweetcaster, ES file explorer, my MZW app, and a couple others all just force closing right after I select them).
So is it this thing causing this? I have never seen this app until recently, maybe after the 5.0 update. Anyone getting solutions to work, this is very, very frustrating!! Just started about a week or so ago. What does this app even do?

Yes, I had issues with KIK, but clearing the cache seemed to do the trick with launching the keyboard. Cant say other than my experience.
My FitnessPal opened then closed. I tried uninstalling it, and re-installing it, to no avail. Only after I uninstalled that abomination did the app start to work correct. I cant say how many apps this thing is crashing, but after seeing the similar negative reviews on the playstore, I am convinced this is not limited to M8.
There are some fanboys of Google of this app raving about how it changed their life and they are not single b/c of it anymore, others saying its your phone, and to wipe you phone but you DO NOT have to wipe or reset your phone, just roll back the app should be good enough, if you are rooted use TB to freeze it.
I have not tried to remove it completely yet which is what i want to do eventually.
yeah.. I think it's a running joke type of thing to leave over the top, ridiculous silly comments about it on the play store. Do not know where or why that started but it detracts from the reality that this thing sucks! I unistalled the update, froze it with TI backup, restarted the phone and all my apps that were affected by (Tweetcaster, ES file explorer, my VZW, and probably others but those are the main ones I know of for sure) now work 100 %. It was definitely this app that was affecting them for some reason.
As far as Kik goes, not sure, I deleted the app, re-installed it, cleared everything, tried different keyboards, and nothing seems to fix the keyboard not popping up. If I click the + sign like to add an attachment, then back, it brings the keyboard up no problem. Hopefully an update to that app will fix it soon.
Here is a flashable.zip of the latest working version before this latest atrocity, in-case anyone needs it.
I couldn't even type in the stock HTC messaging.apk along with many other apps not working, with the new update. Once re-storing to this older version all my apps and everything is back to normal.
Google is much better than this.
I really don't understand how people can leave a comment in PlayStore saying this update is anything but horrible.

I came across this Google plus page discussing the latest Webview issues. The Webview engineer is reaching out for feedback on the M8.

Its good to know this thing is getting pushed so quickly
These crashes have been driving me nuts. What I'm confused about is that all of the apkmirror webview updates say they are for Lollipop API 21... I'm having identical issues on 4.4.4 CleanROM. When I first found people saying it was a webview issue I looked through system apps and there is no webview to be found so now I'm at a loss on how to fix it
Hi,
I am using Chromium v. 111 as my browser on Pixel 7 Pro. One day, it just won't display any websites anymore. The error message is "Aw, Snap"
These are the steps I had taken:
close all tabs
clear cache
clear user data
reset network setting
uninstall AdGuard
uninstall Chromium
reinstall the latest Chromium
What steps am I missing?
Chrome, Firefox works fine on this Pixel 7 Pro (even with AdGuard activated), I gather there is nothing wrong with the network settings.
The same version of Chromium is installed on my other phone (Samsung S21) and it works fine. This means the Chromium is good to use.
Appreciate for any hints.
did you try earlier versions, from APK Mirror (or the like if it's not found there)? just to confirm if it's a latest version issue...
Thanks for the heads up.
Not sure why but the version I downloaded doesn't work on Pixel 7 Pro but the same version works fine on Samsung S21

So did an earlier version work now on the P7P?
If it's a "Aw Snap" message for all websites, I wonder if it's some kind of "resolving" network type issue or if some issue on the "hosts" file is interfering...You said you were employing AdGuard -- but you already troubleshooted it with other browsers and/or removing it. Maybe it doesn't like Android 13 firmware update (whichever you are) and/or the recently updated Play System update. Might be worth sending a bug report to the devs for Chromium giving them a heads up on the issue.
i have the same problem with chromium (build nr 1111) on pixel 7 pro, but not on all the websites. One that always crashes is github
Yeah I get this too with bromite or chromium. Nothing works, aw snap always. But brave works fine, it's annoying.
