Re: How can I fix the "com.android.systemui has stopped" error? Google App on Store still dated 20 January (version 6.10.37.16.arm for my tablet) as of 2 February, and that's the release that's buggered. Recent release history suggests Google puts out a version once a month, and around about...

Weird. I wonder if its an issue with RAM rather than storage (of which you clearly have enough) - RAM is being used by something else in background when it's needed for processing the install? Do you have any utility apps that might help release RAM on your device? Like CCleaner or Avira...

Re: How can I fix the "com.android.systemui has stopped" error? Well (and you didn't hear this from me - let's call it theoretically), you could search out the older (issue-free) Google app .apk file appropriate to your OS - say the version from mid-December - from a reputable 3rd Party site...

Re: How can I fix the "com.android.systemui has stopped" error? Google still remains in the App Manager here - but not in Downloaded, as those would have been the updates. The factory installed version is shown in All, however.

Re: How can I fix the "com.android.systemui has stopped" error? Seems it was the January 20 version (6.10.37.16 according to Play Store in my case - running OS 4.2.2.) that was the issue. Some variants for other versions of OS might make it a day later...?

Re: How can I fix the "com.android.systemui has stopped" error? Sheila - 1. Tap the Settings Icon (usually a little round gear icon). This may be on one of your phone's screens, or you will find it by tapping the icon that shows all your apps. 2. On the next screen, scroll down to...

Re: How can I fix the "com.android.systemui has stopped" error? Yup, Uninstall Updates (best done via Settings > Applications > Google App > tap to open) resolves this - you don't need to (or can you even?) fully uninstall Google App. Back to earlier or factory version will be fine. But don't...

Same problem here - and plenty of reports elsewhere on same over the last few days, so that suggests a recent software update the issue. Seems the culprit is a Google app update - of all things. Its probably not something that's gonna require major time or nerdiness to resolve. Go to Settings...

Not sure what I was expecting by way of response either, Assassin Droid. But silence speaks volumes. Short of the (non-Google approved) full wipe and install of 4.x.x - all way too geeky for me and not something a user should need to do to keep their device running - I tried most of the other...

Okay, so I might have asked Google "What the [language removed] were they thinking?" in my letter. I didn't think to censor that for this forum, as it was a verbatim response to the Company, not to an individual within these Forums. Fortunately, someone here took it upon themselves to censor...

As the title suggests, I finally gave up on my Nexus 7. Google's 'improvements' made it near useless, so I hand-delivered it and this note to their offices in Toronto. Not sure what I expected, but the silence from them has been deafening. Perhaps if I'd posted this letter on Twitter on on...

IIABDFI (If It Ain't Broke...) - nothing in Lollipop is ground-shakingly new or improved and too much reported (and tried at this end) to suggest that an install of Lollipop on an 'older' device will lessen your user experience, if not make it unusable. Lollipop on devices with it native and...

Re: Cannot connect to free public wifi network that requires a sign in/login page? As with some others, I found Dolphin to be a better bet than Chrome at getting to an authentication page by typing in a random URL. Once the authentication page was found on Dolphin, I made a point of saving...

What is the biggest commercial confectionery flop ever created that starts with 'M'. Certainly, it seems that with Lollipop (at least, in the downloaded and retrofitted to older devices version), Google has come close to tinkering with something good to close to disaster.

IIABDFI (If It Ain't Broke...) Lollipop (v.5 - 5.11) have been an, ahem...disappointment on my N7. In the greater scheme of things, I regret moving from 4.4.4. And moving back is something of a geekfest I'm not prepared to do. If the device is working for you and the apps you need are working...
