Sorry! Google Services Framework message -- what does it mean?
 

A couple of days ago I started getting the following message as a pop-on across the screen at random intervals:

Sorry!
The application Google Services Framework (process.com.google.process.gapps)has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.
<Force close> button.

It doesn't seem to be an error message. It's not linked to any specific app or process. And it doesn't DO anything to whatever app I am in. Hitting the force close button sends the message away. The apps keep running where they left off with no problems. It's annoying but not a functionality issue.

Does anyone know what the message means? And why I keep getting it?

what rom/kernel are you using?

Re: Sorry! Google Services Framework message -- what does it mean?
 

Thanks for responding gten.
I'm running the stock EC05. Not rooted.
I can't make the message show up but it seems to happen most often when I'm in the google calendar and the Amazon app market apps.

Thanks eigerzoom. I wasn't doing any reboot/recovery though and I don't have widgetsoid. Also the phone isn't useless. It just an occasional-to-frequent momentary annoyance. And everything continues to work normally. Except for that. Wonder what the causal similarities are since it's the same message...

Try disable auto-syncing and see if you still get it.

What calendars are you using? just your gmail one or some other?

Re: Sorry! Google Services Framework message -- what does it mean?
 

you can also wipe data in "running programs" and that should fix it.

Re: Sorry! Google Services Framework message -- what does it mean?
 

Thanks guys. I'll try both your sugestions and see what happens.
gten, I'm using my gmail calendar now. I was also running Business Calendar because it was a freebie Amazon app program. I deleted it when the message started showing up and it began to show up less often. Didn't like it anyway. Sometimes free isn't great.
Darren, thanks as always.

Just to wrap this up (kinda)...
The Sorry message disappeared when I turned off Autosync and wiped the data in running programs.
Then, later, I noticed that Gmail, Contacts, and Calendar weren't synching anymore. So I synched them manually. The message came back when I was synching Calendar. The synch worked however. At least now I know what it is from anyway.
No clue as to how to get rid of it. Since functionality isn't a problem, I don't think it's worth a hard reset.

You have data corruption or permission issues somewhere in your system. If your completely stock you'll have to do a factory wipe.

If your rooted boot into cw and try clearing the dalvik cache and fixing permissions. If that doesn't work you'll have to do a factory wipe
