Welcome to the forums. Do you use an SD card in your phone? Sometimes this kind of problem is caused by a failing card.

Thanks for your reply,

i got no sd card in my samsung s8+

just 2 days ago 2 apps appeard themselves,
which are:

"lookout"
and the other one called "Caller ID" which i opend and it says "the application was unable to athenticate with our server ect..

i really got no idea it specially does it when i try to access snapchat inapp pictures error and crashed back to homescreen,.

not sure if that did affected any other app haven't seen anything else..

what would you suggest please..

Thanks for the registering! That's strange. You could try uninstalling Caller ID, I've read a few threads about this app pushing ads and doing funny things. Go to settings - apps - select Caller ID - force stop - clear defaults (if any) - clear cache and clear data - uninstall.

I moved your thread to the S8+ forum where it'll be easier getting help from other owners.

thanks again,

i did what you suggested me force stop for callerID clear caches/data but cannot see where i can uninstall it as it doesn't appear on playstore and doesnt give the option in settings->app->callerID.

Even keeping my finger on it doesn't give me the option to disable or uninstall it like other apps..


thanks.
