Droid running random apps

Anyone else have an issue with thier Droid turning on random apps without any reason? I will unlock/open my phone and have news&weather, and amazon, or a multitude of other apps on my phone that just turn themselves on. Apps that i have never even used are sometimes running.
I have an app that can turn them off if i tell it to...but they keep turning back on all by themselves.  Its kind of annoying.

If you have the original amazon mp3 that came with your phone, I would suggest you search for and download the update from google market. I know that update helped with my phone to keep that particular app from running.
I do also have a task manager loaded (not task killer) as well, but it doesn't have the auto-kill option. It is a quick way for me to find out what is running without going into the applications list.

  • Droid opening random apps

    My Droid 2 has started opeing random apps, trying to dial random numbers, and hangs up randomly in the middle of calls.  I've taken out the battery and restarted, removed the app killer, been to the VZW store for help and nothing is solving this?  Next steps...?

    I have no idea except it should be many years.. However, you should almost fully discharge the battery monthly to maximize the battery life in in the eventwant to use it on the battery.

  • Random app force close problems and other issues on Droid

    Has anyone seen droid apps randomly force close a lot lately? I bought the Droid and have been having constant problems after the initial update. 2.2 brought no comfort. Facebook video never worked, screen has been jumpy, lots of random app resets and force close problems showing up lately, and the 3G speeds which was about the only good thing about Verizon has become very slow lately. This thing is starting to make windows mobile 6x look good.
    This Droid device has seriously grown long in the tooth now. After nearly 10 yrs on verizon network, I'm seriously thinking of going back to AT&T for the iPhone or the new Windows 7 Phone. Anyone else feel that way about your Droid?

    Don't get me started with the Facebook app. Lets leave it at FAIL. But, yes. I've noticed it with maps, espescially if your in a moving vehicle when you open the app. Something about the gps and being in motion at the time. But, I've had it freeze from opening the camera to a few 3rd party apps. Very frustrating to the point that I'll take a regular phone AND a regular laptop, thank you. (<--not interested in renewing)

  • Droid 2 Global Apps Force Closing Constantly

    Hi, I had my Droid 2 Global for about a year. Last week, it started to lock up, and the screen began to randomly select locations and do sporadic scrolling. It was completely unusable. Fortunately (or so I thought) I was under warranty and got a free replacement. This phone has its own plethora of problem right out of the box. For starters, the speaker sounds like it was blown by the previous owner (it's factory re-certified, which they claim has a 100+ point inspection, you would think that the speaker would be one of those...), and additionally the apps on the phone constantly crash and close to the desktop. Most the the apps crash between immediately upon opening, or within 30 seconds. The most troublesome apps so far have been the stock Calendar and Browser apps, and Facebook. Those are 3 of my 4 most commonly used apps on my phone, so it's basically worthless to me now. I've only had this replacement for 6 days.
    I don't want to fork over 300 dollars plus pay for an early upgrade again (had to do that when my last android phone died after 53 weeks, with a 52 week warranty, to which Verizon said "Too bad, so sad." That's when I got the Droid 2 Global, which lasted about 54 weeks. I'm getting very suspicious here, though I try to avoid conspiracy theories. Does anyone have any ideas what may be causing this? I don't have many apps installed besides the stock apps that come on it, maybe 20 or so, half of which are various Google apps (Docs, Skymap, Voice, etc) I'm hesitant to try for another replacement because it will be another hassle and likely just another broken piece of junk.
    Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

    The speaker problem is present at all volume levels, but is less noticeable if the volume is below about 25%.
    I had Lookout mobile security installed, so per your direction I uninstalled it and restarted the phone. Apps still randomly crash. Sometimes they will be open and work fine, and a few times a day they get into a rut where they crash quickly after opening, and will crash every time they are opened after that. It seems like if I pull the battery for 30 seconds, then replace and power on again the problem seems to go away. It has persisted with a regular power down/back on. All of the apps I have currently were on my original Droid 2 Global, and I never had this issue with apps crashing, so I don't suspect they they are the cause, but I won't rule it out.

    Hello brian_g05 I was very upset after reading your post. You should have a good replacement device! Yes our replacements do pass an inspection prior to being shipped out. There shouldn't be any issue with the speaker. Let's look into this with you. Do you have the device on the loudest setting? If so please turn down by 1 and retest. Do you experience this problem with device on speakerphone or when playing music? The problem with the applications crashing may be related to one of the 20 downloaded applications or a combination of the applications. Do you have any antivirus or advanced task killer applications installed? If so please remove and retest. Please power the device in safe mode and see if it crashes when using the browser. Here's a link for safe mode: http://support.verizonwireless.com/clc/devices/knowledge_base.html?id=37821 Please try these steps and let me know if you still run into any issues.

  • Is autoconfig required to be run for apps password change

    Is autoconfig required to be run for apps password change -- We are only changing APPS and APPLSYS passwords.
    How to Change Applications Passwords using Applications Schema Password Change Utility (FNDCPASS or AFPASSWD) [ID 437260.1] -- does not mention anything about autoconfig.
    Please clarify.
    Thanks

    It's mentioned in the document twice
    1. For APPLSYSPUB/GUEST as you mentioned
    2. Under "Verify the new password" which cover the apps/applsys passwords
    If you search the doc for "AutoConfig" you will find it there.

  • Has anyone in this Forum had problems with installing and running Adobe apps on the new MacPro?

    I have been trying to install Photoshop CS6 & CC and Acrobat Pro XI on my Mac Pro (late 2013). I keep getting a 'configuration' error message and wondered if the problem was wide spread.

  • TS2709 I have AppleTV and Ipad2 running VJay app to my TV over a private cisco router disabled firewall but I keep loosing the video on my TV after a few minutes what can I do?

    I have AppleTV and Ipad2 running VJay app to my TV over a private cisco router disabled firewall but I keep loosing the video on my TV after a few minutes what can I do?

    I also get this problem on my iPad, so probably not related to the AppleTV. On the iPad I restarted Airport Extreme this time, and then the iPad saw my Home Sharing.
    So to recap, restarting the router or Airport Express allowed the iPad and AppleTV to see Home Sharing. Restarting AppleTV also allows AppleTV to see Home Sharing.
    So does anyone have any idea?
    Thanks

  • I have 2 iphones4! Do I have to create one apple id for each device or I can have both in one apple id? I'm asking cause I'm trying to run findmyiphone app for both devices!

    I have 2 iphones4! Do I have to create one apple id for each device or I can have both in one apple id? I'm asking cause I'm trying to run findmyiphone app for both devices!

    Here's what I do. My wife and  I each have an iPhone. We each have our own Apple ID. I also have another totally separate Apple ID. The ONLY thing that one has been used for was to set up Find my iPhone for our phones and my iPad. There is no reason the MobileMe setting for find my iphone can't be something completely different from your regular Apple ID UNLESS you already use MobileMe, in which case the 2 conflict in ways I don't understand as I don't subscribe to it.

  • How Do I Run the Apps?

    Hello all - have an HP Envy 4500, using the eprint centre, sched apps printing OK, but confused as to how to run the apps on demand. For example, HP Quick Forms. I can schedule, I can look at samples, but how does one print out a desired sheet such a sheet of graph paper on demand? I can't figure that one out, and also how does one post a comment. I don't see any button for that either. Another example is the App "Universal Crossword". I can schedule it and have them print, but how can I manually print one? So this applies to all the apps, how does one simply use them on demand instead of scheduling. Clickong on the app itself just gives the sample views.
    Thanks for any help.
    This question was solved.

    Hi harrc,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums. I see that you have some questions about the apps you find in HP Connected.
    To print a sample of any of the HP Quick Forms, you can print them on demand from the front panel of the printer. As for the remaining apps, there isn’t an on-demand option available. For reference I’ve included the Getting Started With HP Printables.

  • Error Running Oracle Apps and Discoverer at the same time

    Hello,
    We are having trouble running Oracle Apps and Discoverer at the same time on certain user's machines. Here are the specifics:
    The user opens Oracle Apps in Internet Explorer. The user then opens Discoverer in another Internet Explorer windows and receives the following error: Runtime Error! Program: C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe abnormal program termination
    As a work around, I installed Firefox on those user's machines. These users run Oracle Apps in Internet Explorer and run Discoverer in FireFox. This has solved the problem in 99% of the cases. However, there is one user who is having FireFox using Discoverer freeze when running Oracle Apps in Internet Explorer.
    Can anyone provide any insight on how I can solve these conflict issues so users can run Oracle Apps and Discoverer at the same time?
    Thanks in advance for your help,
    Carlos

    Hi Michael,
    I agree with you completely. It is reccommended to run 10g on a separate physical server unless you have sufficient resources to run on the same server (which even most large clients do not) Even then, I would recommend a separate server.
    I should have put my comment in context :-)
    a.) I was only stating that it was possible
    and
    b.) whether 10g is installed on the same physical server or separate should not affect the client browser crashing issue that was posted.
    I do have an install with EBS11i and Discoverer 10g on the same physical server and it works fine (this is sandbox/ TEST). Most of my large customers have 10g installed on multiple physical servers due to load balancing (capacity).
    I do work for Oracle. I try to help out on the forum when I can, but it is hit or miss :-(
    I would be glad to discuss anything privately.
    As for the issue at hand, I can reproduce the problem and here is what is occuring.
    I have EBS 11i configured with Jiniator 1.3.24
    I have Discoverer 10g configured with Sun Java plugin 1.4.2_06
    1. If you launch EBS 11i apps and a form with MS IE, then the browser launches the form using Jiniator JRE 1.3.xx (whatever you have configured in AutoConfig for EBS11i)
    2. Next, the user navigates to EBS 11i SSWA and launches a Discoverer workbook.
    What occurs is a child IEXPLORE.exe process is spawned from the parent IEXPLORE.exe process and Discoveer Plus is launched. The parent iexplore.exe process will be attached to the Jiniator JVM. Now if Discoverer is configured with
    a.) Sun Java Plugin or
    b.)a version of Jinitiator that is a different version from what EBS 11i is configured with
    then you may get this conflict.
    It really is an MS IE/JRE conflict with Jinitiator and Sun Java Plugi and the way the broswers attaches to the JVM (IMHO) as this behaviour could be reproduced with other non-oracle java applets.
    You can workaround the situation by:
    a. configure EBS11i and Discoverer to use the same version of Jiniator 1.3.xx
    b. educate the users to open one MS IE browser to connect to EBS11i and then open a second MS IE browser to login to EBS11i SSWA or Discoverer 10g Plus directly to launch workbooks. They need to to this by clicking on the icon and not using File >> New browser. Clicking on the icon will spawn a new parent iexplore.exe process that can attach to a second/different JVM. File >> New Window will spawan a child of the parent.
    c. As you did use two browser versions. MS IE for EBS11 connection and FireFox for Disocverer 10g connection.
    I would choose optoin b, so that you can use Sun Java Plugin with Discoverer.
    Open to any comments. I hope that helps you workaround the problem. The ideal solution is to have EBS 11i use/cerified with the 1.4 or 1.5 JRE. In poking around, I see there is a related post to this on one of Oracle's EBS 11i Product Managers Blog.
