About LinkBacksHi,
I have been using my S3 for 2 months now and have been very happy with it. However, i have had a strange problem. My touchwiz has stopped working a couple of times. I just get an error "Unfortunately Touchwiz has stopped working". I cannot do anything after that. I had to factory reset my device and it is fine again now. Anyone else has had similar problem and any other idea to solve this issue.
Thanks.

Try not to be a smart butt... Stop using touchwiz home? Nova or Apex or Atom are the current favorites. I use Apex myself.
Oh and Welcome to the Forums.

Very strange indeed. You shouldn't have to use a third party launcher, not sure what it could be. I use Apex as well, but hopefully someone can offer up some better assistance for ya. Welcome to the forum!

You can also reset TW in the Application section of the Settings app.

Thanks. I was trying to see if anyone else has had similar issue. Using another launcher is always an option. I can try resetting the TW launcher in future, hopefully I will not need to do it again.

in the five days ive had my phone i saw the same issue last night. i was also running lots of apps and changing lots of settings when it happened. i rebooted the phone and everything is ok. sometimes software just needs a refresher..... just saying.

That's the whole thing. You have a forked kernel with Java piled on top of it and people still mention Linux and android in the same sentence.

Yes JAVA, it even makes our multi-million dollar AIX servers run like crap. I blame the coders but still. Originally Posted by Ollie
