Help android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly

[problematix]

Hello there,

I was just trying this application:
Fake-Call Me Call Faker - Lite (It's in the Android Market)

It installed fine, tried to fake-call myself once (i let it to save call logs, bah). It worked, my "alter ego" called me. Now, when i went to call logs, it says:

"Sorry! The process android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly. Please try Again" And i can only click Force close.

I tried to uninstall the app completely, cleared to memory. Nothing, still i can't access my call log. Tried to shut down the down, didn't help.

My phone isn't rooted. It has the latest official kernel (as it's bought in September this year).

What can i do to solve this problem? I really need to access my call log.

Not sure you can do too much about this without rooting.
You have a problem with your contacts.apk file and you need to put the original back on.

Other than rooting and doing this, all I can suggest is a factory reset, but then of course you will lose everything, but at least you will be able to to use your phone.

Just came across this post as I had the same problem with android.process.acore stopping.I caused that problem myself by erroneously setting the permissions on contacts2.db (I believe the path to that file varies depending on phone model/version, but it's the contacts and call log db).

On my phone that file needed to be owned by app_13 and 644 at least.
I wonder if in the OP case, the app being tested took ownership, thereby denying write access?

Anyway, I know this doesn't help the OP as they would need root to fix the permissions, this is just a note to say that permissions that don't allow writing to contacts2.db cause android.process.acore to crash.
