Getting loads of force closes all of a sudden

[Casey Cheung]

Yes, my calendar is updated daily because I am using Exchange Active Sync. My contacts less often.

I did clear the calendar storage and the issue almost completely vanished. It will go days without the error and then one might pop up. I go to clear the calendar storage and I get another several days of FC-free tabbing.

One interesting thing though is now, every so often, I get a FC on the Samsung update service when I turn on the Tab (not wake, turn it on from being off). It's obviously going to check for updates and failing. I can still manually check for updates.This didn't start until recently.

I do agree and recommend clearing CALENDAR STORAGE and seeing how that works. (keep in mind I did a factory reset last week - not sure that needs to be part of the solution)

I was thinking of buying this new Samsung Tab 10" tablet, but after reading all these forced close issues, I'm not so sure now.

I was thinking of buying this new Samsung Tab 10" tablet, but after reading all these forced close issues, I'm not so sure now.

The only app I've had force close on my is the samsung account. which was fixed by wiping the app data/cache and it's been fine since.

I don't have the facebook app on my device, as I rarely use facebook, but even on my phone, I just used the website. This app is NOT tablet optimized, and with how crappy facebook is on android to begin with, installing it just seemed like a bad idea.

After my initial rush of "OMG NEW TOY" downloads, I typically only download 1-2 apps at a time. If I notice any slowdown, I uninstall them. i haven't downloaded something that gave me force closes yet, and I used my tablet all the time.
