[Solved] An unexpected error occured in com.google.gapps - Android error pop-up
The pop-up appeared on my Android phone multiple times whenever I connect to internet. I did not have any clue why this happened. I finally tried the below to fix the issue, and it fixed the issue.
Note: This works only on a rooted Android device.
I open the file bugreport.log and looked for the exception message related to gapps. From the logs, I realized that while calendar sync starts, somehow the account name is set as blank, which was causing the issue. To double-check whether this is the issue, I opened the Calendar app in my mobile and navigated to Menu > More > Calendars. When I opened this menu item, the application force closed with unexpected error. This confirmed that the issue is with the Calendar app in my mobile. To fix this, I did the following:
The issue is fixed!
In pursuit of fixing the issue, I found some useful information to troubleshoot issues in Android. I am listing them below:

- /data/dontpanic this location can contain crash logs.
- /data/kernelpanics
- /data/panic/panic_deamon.config this config file has the configuration to point to crash log output location.
