"Unfortunately the process com.google.process.gapps has stopped" caused by Trusted Place ?

[Bravia9005]

Error Description:

"The process com.google.process.gapps has stopped"  error was popping up in one second after the previous one was "OK"-ed, endless.

Background:

Some minutes earlier Trusted Agents was set to ON, thereafter Trusted Places "HOME,Home" was defined.

Error removed:

- The Google Play services version 7.0.99 (1809214-436) was "uninstall updates" -ed to (default) version 6.5.99(1642632-436).

- Thereafter "Trusted Agents" was switched off.

First usages do not show the error, I will update the thread next time it pops up again.

Device and Versions:

Xperia Z3 Compact (D5803), 

Android 5.0.2., Build: 23.1.A.0.690,

Kernel: 3.4.0-perf-g72984dd, BuildUser@BuildHost #1, Fri Feb 27 18:06:32 2015

Customization: 1289-4696 R4C

Google Play Build version: 5.3.6.

Questions:

- Should I update of Google Play services now ?  /lots of notifications coming ...

- What can I expect, when is it possible to use Trusteds on that phone ?

- What can I expect with the other Z3C in our family, which uses the Trusted Place w/o error ?
  (Or should I be just plain happy to use the feature at least on one other phone at the moment ?   😉

- Is there an official update 5.x (x>0) planned for Xperias ?

Try performing a system repair using PC Companion as this will often fix issues - This will factory reset your phone and erase all data so best to backup before you begin

Switch off your phone and unplug from Pc (Hold volume up and power for around 10 seconds)
Start PC Companion and select Support zone then Update my phone/tablet then in Blue Repair my phone/tablet and follow the on screen instructions - When prompted connect your phone still switched off holding volume down or back button - This should start the repair or reformat process

If you are using Windows 8/8.1 or a 64bit operating system then adjust the settings for PC Companion and run in compatibility mode and chose Windows 7 or XP
