Chances are that there is some background thread that is causing this from a service connector. Something like account adapters (Google Accts have several sub-acct connectors for 'Books', Maps/Latitude, GMail, Calendar, Contacts, etc... and FB is a notoriously buggy account adapter as well).
Another cause is background services for Widgets. These also tend to eat up running memory, page back and forth (if you have that enabled), and are slow to re-initialize if ever dropped from memory by the internal memory manager. This causes even further slowdowns in redraw loops for the Launcher and system processes, which will usually cause the FC popups.
What specifically is causing your FC problems, I have no idea. However, there are some ideas to work with.

I have no widgets up but the clock and power control. Idk. I'm about to just hard reset and start over. But when I open Pandora or even sometimes my contacts it freezes and fc.

Probably best if you hard reset

native browser doesn't work in the background!!

If I open any web address in the native browser of the phone and then switch to any other app, so that after some time, the webpage opens. When I switch back to native browser after sometime, I noticed that the web page was not opening and starts opening as soon as I switched back to native browser. Can anyone please let me know the resolution to this?

It's because of android's memory management. To run the app your closing, ram is needed. So they close background apps. Thus, on our this low ram phone, multitasking is harder. Try v6 supercharger, may help

You can lock the browser in the phone memory if you want using v6 supercharger ,kyoraapp., which makes the browser to remain in memory from boot up to shut down
If you are desperate to have browser running in background then lock it in memory but you might occasionally feel your phone is sluggish if you open lots of websites and leave it in background

Nothing much could be done I guess this is the design feature of 5.0.1 and touchwiz for a smooth experience. . Check from app manager ..most of the apps are in cache process for faster response .. remember in android less ram means unused resource .. and worry only when crash happens ..and reason for crash could be anything ..even ad in a website .. try latest rom ..

How to stop Smartphone App from restarting (and battery consuming) ?

Hi guys,
I've noticed that when I force close Smartphone App (in order to clear voicemail icon), the apps starts itself again soon. My former nexus 4 did not act like this. Any ideas?
Further, Clean Master (from CM), keeps notifying me some apps stop and restart in the background (probably due to 2 GB RAM).

Root ur phone and use greenify app..

bad memory management and apps closing

So, for the most part I really like my moto x pure. I've noticed, though, that I often cannot have navigation running while listening to google play music. It appears that the phone closes the other app whenever I switch between them. This also happens with iheartradio and several other apps.
Is this a memory management thing? I'm going to try a new kernel later today to see if that helps.

are you using the stock kernel that comes with the phone by default? I have been multi tasking apps, maps, games, spotify, waze, and other apps, and they are not restarting or closing.

Memory management working good on mine

I was using the stock kernel and had this issue. I switched to another kernel and the issue still persisted. I have modified the memory management setting from Super Agressive to Agressive, and it helps. If I do anything less than Agressive, the phone is essentially unresponsive after about 30 minutes.

I have used greenify, and I have disabled it. It doesn't appear to positively or negatively affect the performance.

restore to stock once, the issue only for you

I run navigation + pocketcast, tunein radio, or google play music all the time. never have an issue. im all stock
