I had same problem on my D2 and asked the same question. Never got an answer but ended up having to flash the .spf. Read this link:

I would be curious to see if you could open the .spf and get just the apx you are looking for. If not you can flash it and start over. ..

You might have to hunt around for a DX spf, but the D2 and DX are kissing cousins hardware wise, I used the DX bootstrap to back up my D2.

Wipe data for Contacts Storage and Google Services Framework.

Really easy, this will fix either android.process.acore force closing or google.services.framework force closing.

WARNING!: This will wipe contacts. It seems acore fc's when there are corrupted contacts. Usually by restoring contacts on an incompatible ROM....

And will temporarily wipe market list. So

backup your contacts!

Step by step:

0. Make sure Sync is off, leave it off for some time!
1. Go into settings
2. Select Applications
3. Select Manage Applications
4. (If you are on 2.2) Select the All tab
5. Scroll down until you find Contacts Storage (select it).
6. Wipe data+clear cache(If available)
7. Hit back
8. Scroll down until you find Google Services Framework (select it)
9. Wipe data+clear cache (if available)
10. Reboot and enjoy
11. (optional) Enable Sync again

Enable sync again when your convinced that the error has gone.

If this works for you, can you reply stating what ROM your on? (Eg, Stock 2.2, Cyanogenmod 5.08, MIUI 0.9.24, etc)

Or if it doesn't work for you, do the same thing? :)

Thanks guys!

NOTE:

It can be caused by corrupted database entiries in ANY of the syncs, Gmail, Calender, etc, but I've found contacts are the most likely culprits. This is a band-aid solution, if the problem is reappearing than there is probably something wrong with the source data being synced. Or an external application trying to do modifications (eg, a custom contacts application).

If you don't want to wipe all contacts:

So far most users are able to fix the error using the above steps, except Droid Incredible's seemingly...

It happened on my galaxy s too, when I viewed my contacts I got force close.

But after I tried many contacts backup tool on the market, I found that my contacts had 1 contact with no first name and no last name on it.

So I use contact removal from the market to remove that contact.

After that I got no force close again.

And my contact do not need to be wiped clean before.

Maybe this can resolved the contact error for some.

At least this worked on my galaxy s. :)

Happened out of nowhere. Everything was running fine. All I did was reboot to WinMo (not the first time either). Then when I booted back into Android it started FC'in all over the place. Market failed and I couldn't view my Contacts either. Speaking of which, it hasn't been updated either unless it was syncing or updating contact info in the background. Who knows...

Everything's working great... just had to give it some time to restore all the downloads and whatnot.

[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DonJuan692006:
We'll its really going to depend on your fastboot info (what SPL/radio your using) then you can go from there. The Androot method seems to be the now easiest method and from what I've read has a high success rate. You'll need to get your fastboot information then you can start searching. The answers to your questions are out there. The biggest thing with having the 3.5mm Jack is the ROMs available for it. There aren't many so your choices are limited.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Phateless:
In most cases, no. The original MT3G (no headphone jack) is one of the easiest phones to root, which is kinda awesome. Download universal androot, then rom manager, flash the recovery and then install roms as usual. Way easy!
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] Binary100100:
@can teh man

You NEED to post your information before you can get anyone here to help you.

All that we know at this point is that you have a MyTouch without the 3.5mm jack. But did you know that there are still different versions of your device? If someone gives you instructions (or reference to instructions) that is not meant for your device then you might end up with a broken phone. WE ARE NOT LIABLE FOR THIS!

Your next post in this thread better be with useful information to properly identify your device or I will delete this thread.

When your device is powered off hold down the volume button while pressing power. It should take you to a white screen. Post ALL information that you see on that white screen here in this thread and then we can help you.

I've got it rooted and I've got Rom Manager, Amon Ra [32B] installed... what do I need to know about radio and SPL for this phone?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] johnson8cyl:
I have same phone as u. U have new radio. I flashed 2005 eng spl to mine to get s-off. Fastboot purposes. Use amonra 1.7.0. Just make sure whatever u flash is for 32b. Most Roms for it will be in g1 section. Check the sticky section. Will have spl if u want Eng spl and list of roms. Try them out.
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] can teh man:
I have AMON RA 1.7.

Is the SPL the reason why I can't use fastboot?
[myTouch 3G, Magic General] DonJuan692006:
Yeah the S-ON means your SPL has security on which keeps you from running any remote fastboot commands from your computer. If you've already got AmonRa loaded on your phone your good to go and wont need to mess with your SPL/radio. Just start flashing ROMs.

[Vibrant General] }{Alienz}{:
I'm sure you all know our Vibrant's SUPERAMOLED uses much less/no power when dysplaying black and a TON of power when having to dysplay white pixels.

You also all know that most websites are white with black text. My idea is to invert this in browsers such as DolphinHD, the default Android Browser, and whatever other browsers there are.

How would it work? Ideally as a browser plug in (DolphinHD already supports addons) that inverts background color on websites if it detects white and inverts text color to white. It would NOT touch any other color nor the images, video, animations on websites. Just the static background would be black if it's white by default and the text would be white.

That way, a lot of power will be conserved, even on full screen brightness.

Since I do not have the time or expertise to do this, I am just offering the idea for a dev to look into if interested.
[Vibrant General] koreanjhee:
Good idea but what about black within photos and such? that'd be insane.
[Vibrant General] }{Alienz}{:
Umm...Inverting colors in photos would just ruin the pictures I think.

I was talking about making the addon look for the html/php/etc tags that specify color for the background and text of a page upon load and alter them before passing it to the browser to load.
[Vibrant General] jorge934:
Just change the white background to black, and white text to black. No need to invert colors.

Some one must be able to do this... come on!

[Vibrant General] demize!:
Somebody posted a thread about this a while back. I would love to see oit done, easier on the eyes as well as battery. Steel had this option for one version a while back, or it might have been Dolphin, so it can be done. Adilko and most of the Ereaders have this functionality.
[Vibrant General] aditya104:
I am using Galaxy S I9000 and I would love such an app. One of my favt website popurls.com is one such site, uses black background and blue text. Also Blackle is a website which is Google Search with black background. Gr8 idea. Wish some developers are reading it.

There should b a quick button for inverting the colors. So that it can b turned off when not required.
[Vibrant General] juamiso:
I got in touch with the DolphinHD team, and feedback looks promising. Probably I will write the add-on myself :) so stay tuned!

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4u2nvinmtl:
Hi,

I have a rooted GT-i9000m (bell Galaxy S Vibrant). I used the one click lag fix to root my phone and it works fine.

A few days ago out of no where all the apps started auto closing as soon as i opened them and then both the menu and back touch buttons lit up and the screen went black. I held the power down till it rebooted only to get and error with com.android.calendar even tho I never use the app. When it finish's booting none of my installed apps are showing.

The first time it happened with com.android.app and I did a full wipe and factory reset and just reinstalled everything.

Ideally I don't want to system reset to factory settings again and lose all my files and notes that i copied back on to the phone 2days ago...

Please note I have tried clearing the data for the calendar app in settings -> apps and i cleared the calendar back up. My problem is that none of my installed apps are showing...

(Update) I also cant reinstall or update apps due to a Installation error - Insufficient storage. But there's room on both SD cards. I also set 850mb for apps when i did the one click lag fix and i don't have 850mb of apps installed.

(Update 2) I did a factory reset again this time i didn't format the internal and external SD cards. (It works like new again) Thus I got to keep all my personal files and ring tones ect. The only thing that was deleted that I didn't back up is my Notes. This leads me to my new question whats best for backing up apps on a rooted SGS (bell Vibrant)?

If anyone has answers they would be much appreciated.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4u2nvinmtl:
I now understand the cause of the problem. I change my battery once and some times twice a day. At first I would wait for the long shut down (untill the screen goes totaly black) and then take off the back and swap out the battery. At least 3 times the phone would boot up and ask me for the network unlock code (I bought the unlock code directly from bell for 75$). I found this rather annoying so i tried just taking the battery out wile it was on (idle) and it appeared to work flawlessly at least 20-30 times before the phone would start to do an endless force close loop cycle. This kept forcing me to do a factory reset on the phone. I can only assume the one click lag fix and my disregard for the need of the shutdown before removing the battery must be all the cause of my problems.

I will try and see if my phone is more stable with out the one click lag fix.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AllGamer:
nope that is not the cause of the problem

but it sounds like you are another victim of the lag fixes that is killing your internal SD card.

not the fault of the lag fix, it just make the problem apear sooner than later
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lokhor:
I have been having a similar issue and I'm using Voodoo lagfix. I think it's because I took the battery out before it had completely shut down.

Well the phone bit the dust today. I opened up google maps to look up an address and it crashed with the usual error. So i rebooted the phone and now it stays stuck at the boot logo. (the glowing S with both touch keys staying lit) So i did the recovery thing again but this time I had to do the Vol-up + home + power in order to get the phone working some what. IDK but it wont let me log into my google account to sync my contacts. My APN settings are correct and working and I even tried off my Wifi at home. I'll just hope its a google problem and not my phone acting up. Thanks for the pointer to the bad internal SD. That may be the problem kinda hard to prove it to Samy thoe...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4u2nvinmtl:
I get force close errors after about 4-7 days of use. Now its gotten worse. A few days ago I was looking up an address and my phone crashed and rebooted it self. It then hug at the S boot logo for 20mins. I got to my friends apartment building to find my phone still stuck at this boot logo. I couldn't remember his apartment number or buzzer code... Normally i just check my contacts list and buzz the code. I was standing out side in the Canadian fall cold wind trying to get this phone to work... OMG i almost just smashed it on the spot. Anyways I remembered about something i had read on this forum about the recovery mode ( i had used it to root ) so i tried that out got the little menu and tried every option before having to do the dreaded factory reset. Well nothing work with the exception of the factory reset it got my phone working in about 5mins... LOL

Anyways I thought I might try upgrading the firmware when I got home. What a mistake... I cant control my phones MP3 player via my bluetooth car stereo any longer. Tried everything even a factory reset and formatting the internal and external SD's. I tried running it with out rooting it again and with out the lag fix in hopes that I wouldn't get a force close error. Wouldn't you know it about 5 hours after the factory reset un-rooted just after i finish coping over all my music. I get a force close error! So I tried again and this time the phone ran for about 30hours before it started giving me force close errors about the email now...

Sigh I've tried just about everything in my power to make this phone work. So I assumed it must be the phone... I called Samsung up to get a RMA going... Wouldn't you know it they tell me that I have to call my carrier to get it RMA/repaired. I try to explain that I bought the phone with out a contract and bought the unlock code from Bell so I could use it on Fido. They tell me to call Fido... ROFL Fido wouldn't even give me their APN settings when i got this phone so knew they would be of no help. They don't even have one android phone in their line up i tell the sammy rep. So they tell me I should go back to the Bell store I bought it from to get it repaired/RMA'ed.

I doubt Bell will be of much help but here's hoping.

Do you think my phone is broken, bad flash, buggy memory, ect and needs to be RMA'ed?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4u2nvinmtl:
Update...

I got my phone back from repairs 2 weeks ago. They flat out replaced the phone for a new one. This was a huge headache for me because the new one wasn't unlocked. Took Bell 2 hours to get the new one unlocked wile my wife waited out side double parked downtown! (I thought it would be a quick pick up and I would be out) The blue-tooth works flawlessly again!!

Much to my dismay the replacement phone has started acting up much like my first one did. It gets several force close errors a day and has gotten to the point where it no longer can send or receive text messages (using Handcent). The stock Music Player app also force closes at random with more frequently. It looks like I got another Lemon. This time around I did NOT root, lag-fix, or flash firmware. I will be sending it for repairs as soon as I can afford to buy another phone to use wile this one is off at repairs. My back up phone is a 3~ year old Iphone3g that my son has made his... (cracked screen, vol rockers dont work, power button is jammed in, the LCD screen it self is bleeding on the top edge)

The Vibrant never let me down other than as a phone. As a divx player or using all-share it rocks! I use these features A LOT to play my 720p divx movies on any TV or the projector in the bedroom .

with that being said I might keep the phone just as a portable movie player to bring from place to place and put my sim in something more stable.
