Guest mimminito Posted April 20, 2011 Report Share Posted April 20, 2011 Hey, Just thought I would post up my findings on Honeycomb and its stability. Every now and then I get random FC's (Force Closes) on my EeePad. This is acceptable, its an early os blah blah, only happens every now and then, so im not too bothered. Now, today, I just turned on the screen, and was greeted by an FC from an app which has never FC's on me! So I closed the dialog, and another FC came up. Closed that, and another came up! This happened for all of the apps that were running on my EeePad. Then the launcher FC'd, and was unable to restart without crashing. Basically honeycomb decided to fail on an epic proportion :) This coudl just be a one off, but I thought I woudl let people know incase they get similar issues, and maybe this can be looked into by some of the smarter devs on this forum :) Its to be noted this happened on the newly installed firmware from Asus.

Persisted after rebooting and made device largely useless. Seemed like the system was having issues reading the /data partition, and apps were crashing due to being unable to access their various databases and preferences settings. Couldn't identify what went wrong or how to fix it and ended up having to perform a factory-reset. Edited April 20, 2011 by my_big_feet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest dictionary Posted April 29, 2011 Report Share Posted April 29, 2011 It wasn't! Fixing Permissions should fix that next time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest my_big_feet Posted May 4, 2011 Report Share Posted May 4, 2011 Fixing Permissions should fix that next time. It wasn't/isn't rooted, so not an option. Thankfully, it hasn't happened since the 2.3 update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
