Crashings

Post by stardust1979
Hi everbody,

I have bought an Huawei G330 with Android 4.04. I would love to use Waze, but unfortunately, it crashes everytime I want to use it. E.g. it crashes whenever I hit the search button in the navigation dialogue. I can see the map with my exact positions, but other features are not accessible without crashing. Sometimes it crashes when just playing arround, but it always crashes when hitting the button mentioned above.

I then get an info like: "Sorry, waze has been shut down." (Sorry, I don´t know the exact english words, since I am german.) plus it asks me to send an error report, which I already sent several times.

In the report it reads:

"java.lang.NullPointerException
unable to start activity ComponentInfo(com.waze/com.waze.navigate.AddFavorite...."

I uninstalled and reinstalled it, changed location, killed all other processes, uninstalled some applications, disabled WLAN,...

What else can I do to fix this? Or can this be a hint for having issues with my hardware? Tell me if you need more info...

Many thanks for your reply in advance,
Stefan

The only way I found to get Waze working on Huawei G330 is installing Waze ver. 2.3.6.7

It will crash whenever I click to accept user agreement. it will either crash/ hang or bring me back to the same accept user agreement page again even I'd click to accept.

Wondering its a bug or Waze doesn't support these chinese made Android device.

below is the video clip on how the program crash

Hi everyone.
I was having the same crash problem with the 3.7.x versions of Waze in my 3 phones: HTC Inspire 4G(android 2.3.3), Huawei 510(android 4.1.1) and Huawei P6(android 4.2.2): once I logged in, it tried to load the voice option but after a few seconds, crashed closing the application.
So I downgraded to the Waze 3.6.0 apk (just Google it from your phones, NOT in playstore) in all my 3 phones and now they're running almost fine: doesn't let me do reports, but everything else works fine.

Hola para todos.
Estaba teniendo el mismo problema de caídas con las versiones 3.7.x de Waze en mis 3 teléfonos: HTC Inspire 4G(android 2.3.3), Huawei 510(android 4.1.1) and Huawei P6(android 4.2.2): una vez que ingresaba, este trataba de cargar la opción de voz y unos segundos después se cerraba.
Entonces bajé la versión del Waze por el apk 3.6.0 (búsquenlo desde sus celulares en Google, NO en la tienda Play), para mis 3 teléfonos y ahora funcionan casi bien: no me deja hacer reportes, pero lo demás funciona bien.

Nobody using an Huawei G330 with Waze? :cry:

I did a full factory reset and installed Waze on the "clean" phone - but the problem remains...

Anyway, thanks for reading my posting and
Merry Christmas!

Happy new year!

Problem remains, but now the error reporting function does not show up anymore. It crashes without any information....

:cry:

Sygic does not work for me neither. Thanks for sharing your problem. It seems like we should take a look at the GPS parts of our OS.... What is your android version and which mobile do you own?
