Force Close message keeps popping up...

[perkdog65]

Last night while I was making my normal Sunday night drive from AL to GA my Bionic started giving me a message "The process com.motorola.process.system has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again." Then I have to hit Force close to make it go away. But every few seconds it pops up again. I have powered the phone off, pulled the battery but it is still doing it. Any ideas.

Try these steps here:

Go to settings, date & time.
Switch "Automatic" off.
Set timezone to some INCORRECT timezone ( say Greenland )
Switch "Automatic" on.

Hmm...just saw this thread. Could this be why my alarm clock app keeps crashing every morning?

This also fixed the same issue on my Atrix running 2.3.4.

Thanks!

Am I missing a final step here? Shouldn't I go back and fix the time zone after? I just chose one with the same hours.

No - you're basically forcing it to reset it's automatic sync to the correct timezone.

Once the automatic update is checked the zone gets reset by the carrier.

Has this fixed your alarm clock crashing? I just went through these steps this morning. My phone would reboot every time I took it out of the dock for the past week. I hope this "fixes" my issue.

just as an update this did not fix my issue...

This, in particular, did not fix my alarm clock issue. However, I recently went to Verizon with regards issues with my phone in general. I had a new SIM card installed and the tech told me that having "Next word prediction" selected in keyboard settings causes problems. She didn't elaborate.

Since then, my alarm clock has been working without a problem. Whether any or both of those solutions actually fixed the problem, I cannot tell.
