Apps crash after update.

Sagar_S — Thu, 20 Mar 2014 16:46:24 GMT

I havtoo pdated my xperia SP to 4.3. I have been noticing that many installed apps have stopped working.
Is this because of the xperia sp software update or the apps are buggy after app update.
I wanted to have the latest android on my device as I am a developer. But if this causes apps to malfunction then I better downgrade my device and make it work smoothly. Also the RAM management is very bad with just few mbs of RAM That too when running basic apps

What if you re-install the latest update?

Update Service (SUS)

PC Companion (PCC)

Bridge (for Mac)

That means I will have to downgrade and then upgrade it. Can't do downgrade without the service center

You don't have to downgrade, just run SUS or PCC then follow the steps, it will say that you have the latest update but will give you an option to re-install it

OK will do so and keep you updated here. Hope that will solve the problem. But going by the number issues people have raised here on the forum. I doubt it will help. But still would do it

Yeah you are right!! Few hours ago I also started a thread for this.
Though ppl here suggested to clear data... Clear cache...use SUS etc etc...but the simplest and best way is to report a crash to developer. I am noticing that apps are crashing due to their compatibility with 4.3 system and the problem is solveD after a new update of app. I dont think that its the problem at our end.
I faced problems with MX player, opera mini, Google search, Skype till now.
MX player and Opera mini are now working fine after recent update...other two still crashing.
Cheers 🙂
