How to fix Galaxy A30 Facebook keeps crashing | troubleshooting Facebook has stopped error

If you’re having a problem with Facebook on your Galaxy A30, you’ll have to do a set of troubleshooting steps to fix it. Learn how to fix Galaxy A30 Facebook keeps crashing issue by following our suggestions below.

Galaxy A30 Facebook keeps crashing fix #1: Force quit Facebook

When dealing with any app issue, the very first troubleshooting step that you want to do is force close it. Temporary glitches may develop over time, especially when the system is left running for a long time. Such bugs may go away when an app is refreshed though. To check if the problem is temporary, follow these steps to restart Facebook.

1. On your screen, tap the Recent Apps soft key (the one with three vertical lines on the left of the Home button).
2. Once the Recent Apps screen is shown, swipe left or right to look for the Instagram app. It should be here if you managed to run it previously. Then, swipe up on the app to close it. This should force close it. If it’s not there, simply tap the Close All app to also restart all apps.

Another way to force close an app is this:

1. Open Settings app.
2. Tap Apps.
3. Tap the More settings icon (three-dot icon, upper right).
4. Tap Show system apps.
5. Find and tap the Facebook app.
6. Tap Force Stop.

Galaxy A30 Facebook keeps crashing fix #2: Update Facebook app

Majority of Facebook bugs usually go away by updating. If you haven’t tried this yet, make sure that update Facebook. New Facebook versions set the app to automatically download and install updates. If you changed this under Facebook’s Settings menu, simply open Google Play Store app and update it from there. Or, you can open Facebook’s Settings menu, if this is possible under the current circumstances, and update it from there.

Galaxy A30 Facebook keeps crashing fix #3: Refresh the device

The next troubleshooting step that you can do in this case is restart your A30 . Just as apps may encounter errors from time to time, the device itself can do too. Glitches can develop as well if your phone is left to run for a long time. It is for this reason that phone users are encouraged to regularly restart their phones. Your A30 can benefit from a simple restart once every few days.

As a troubleshooting step, we recommend that you do another form of restart called soft reset. Basically, it’s a simulation of effects of the traditional “battery pull” procedure. If you haven’t tried it before, this is how it works:

1. Press and hold the Power + Volume Down buttons for approximately 12 seconds or until the device power cycles. Note: Allow several seconds for the Maintenance Boot Mode screen to appear.
2. From the Maintenance Boot Mode screen, select Normal Boot. Note: Utilize the volume buttons to cycle through the available options and the lower left button (below the volume buttons) to select. Allow up to 90 seconds for the reset to complete.

If Maintenance Boot Mode screen won’t show, then your device does not have it. Simply wait for the device to power down completely.

Galaxy A30 Facebook keeps crashing fix #4: Check for recent Facebook bugs

Sometimes, Facebook will acknowledge bugs that may have developed. Do a quick Google search about “Facebook issues” and see if there’s any online solution available. Again, the fix may be simple: just update the app. If there’s no online suggestion how to fix the current bug, continue with the troubleshooting below.
