Restart Phone For Apps To Work

[crackmuffin]

does everyone havee this issue? every day or two i have to restart my phone because all of my apps quit working, and when they quit working if i try to play my music it says that the droid doesnt play this type of file and resets all my ringtones. happens randomly and i have to turn the phone off and back on for everything to work again. is this normal?
also its a droid 2, and i've had it for about two weeks. theyve already reset it for other issues, and this was one of those issues before.

sounds like maybe a bad app or possible a hardware issue if you are having this many issues already.

so do you think i should continue or get a new droid? im not sure if it reset properly because he told me while he was resetting it that i should download my apps slowly to see if one of them is causing the issue, but by the time i got home my phone loaded completely and all my apps were still there and working. i thought the reset would get rid of them all.

A factory reset should clear everything - if it didn't then something wasn't done right, unfortunately I cannot precisely direct you to the factory reset on the D2 as I am an Original Droid Owner - I am sure someone will be able to direct you though

they auto-synced back. If they already did a factory reset and it is still having issues it could be a bad app like I said but the only way to tell would be to unistall them one by one. Can you list the apps you have if you don't mind.

How often do you use the task killer? The VZW Reps will often tell you to use a Task Killer but most of them have no idea how Linux works. Android phones know how to handle all your tasks without have to kill them manually. I would definitely uninstall the task killer, that could very well be the issue.
