Last night my WWF sarted FCing, so I uninstalled it and reinstalled it. After the the reinstall it did not show all of my games, has not updated the current games in 12 hours, and continues to FC. It also does not give the the option to completly uninstall the app, I can only uninstall the updates. Help?????
 
Re: Words With Friends repeatedly force closing!!!!!

Yeah, it's updated like 3 times today, and mine is still doing it also.
 
Re: Words With Friends repeatedly force closing!!!!!

Same problem here. Started after trying to play with someone using a Kindle Fire, then resulted in me missing 5 in process games. Have repeatedly tried to uninstall/reinstall and restart my device to no luck.
 
Re: Words With Friends repeatedly force closing!!!!!

Re: Words With Friends repeatedly force closing!!!!!

Me three. Been crashing for the past couple of days.
 
Re: Words With Friends repeatedly force closing!!!!!

Any luck for anyone out there?
 
Re: Words With Friends repeatedly force closing!!!!!

No luck at all!!!!!! I have not head anything from anyone!!!! Make sure you are sending in the reports when you get an FC. By the way what type of device do you guys have??
 
Re: Words With Friends repeatedly force closing!!!!!

Same here. just started out of the blue a couple days ago. I'm on a galaxy tablet 10.1 inch.
 
Re: Words With Friends repeatedly force closing!!!!!

I am using a Samsung Galaxy Tab 10 inch.

I agree with sending the reports when the program closes. In addition, I would recommend contacting the Zynga HelpDesk with a description of the issue. I did this the first time I experienced the issue and heard back from them today - they are looking into it, but implied I was the only user experiencing the issue.
 
Re: Words With Friends repeatedly force closing!!!!!

Same here. 10.1 wi-fi. I send report each time and I've e-mailed support.
 
Re: Words With Friends repeatedly force closing!!!!!

I even posted it on the WWF Facebook page!!
 
Re: Words With Friends repeatedly force closing!!!!!

Based on other forums for other tablets, looks like this is affecting (seemingly) only tablets that have Android OS (probably Honeycomb). Phones, IPads, and devices that have android derivative OS (such as Kindle) are right now not affected.
 
Re: Words With Friends repeatedly force closing!!!!!

Still nothing. This is painful.
 
Re: Words With Friends repeatedly force closing!!!!!

Ditto here...problem came out of nowhere this week. Also won't let me uninstall program, the only option is to uninstall updates, but the WWF program no longer appears on the list of "downloaded" apps, only in the list of "all" apps, where uninstalling is not an option.. Zynga's web site isn't the best I've ever seen.

Words with Friends Version 3.61 randomly started working on my Samsung Galaxy Tab 10 inch (at least right now as far as I can tell). I uninstalled everything I could then reinstalled from the Google Marketplace (note: I tried the version from Amazon market place which I believe was 4.62 but I can't remember) and it started working. I'm still waiting for moves from people, but this is the first time in the new year that I have been able even open the program and play moves without a force close.
 
Re: Words With Friends repeatedly force closing!!!!!

An update: I still have not gotten any move responses, the program goes to force close when trying to use the chat function, and the program force closes every 5 to 10 minutes. An improvement for me because usually the program was force closing within a minute of opening the program and did not recognize any games, but still not convinced anything is fixed.
PS - all of my games that were in process when the program started crashing are now missing.
 
My problems started whenever they updated WwF in the market. I guess since WwF came with the touchwiz update it can't be uninstalled. It is very frustrating.

I hope there is an update for fix this. As a work around someone was able to run an older version of Word With Friends to their 10.1.
