Hey there, I've had these issues since I first got my Note 4. It's gonna be long so please can you hear me out?
The factory installed Facebook app was the most problematic, the app freezes after a few minutes of use or if I attempt to save a picture. Every time I want to post a picture the gallery pops up and after a few scrolls on the gallery pictures begin to turn black and then it eventually freezes. Same issue occurs on apps that open high resolution pictures. I read that the Facebook app can cause issues so in order to uninstall it I first had to root my phone, rooting was done quickly and without any trouble and then I proceeded to uninstall and reinstall the app but the problem persisted. This continued for at least 8 months and Facebook sent out an update that ultimately fixed the gallery problem but the app still crashes after a few minutes. I've tried testing the app without or with an SD card, installed on it or on phone memory but to no avail. Facebook and certain other apps crash constantly and without any warning. I've tried to fix it by clearing cache and Dalvik cache but still they crash, I've checked new firmware updates but nothing still stuck on the 5.0.1 version. What can I do to rectify this issue that's driving me crazy? I know that installing a new ROM might solve the issue but I really want to stick with stock. Can it be that installing a new firmware will fix it? Please let me know if there's something I can do!
