Not sure why my Note 2 freezes up every now and then. It freezes for a few seconds, then a "Maps has stopped working" pop-up would appear.

Not sure what can be causing this issue.

Reflash the rom. Looks like maps app got corrupted.

I'm stock. No custom ROM.
I also began to get error messages that "Settings has stopped working"
I uninstalled a few apps that were running at the time the error messages were displayed.
If it continues I may have to do a factory reset. Just hoping I can find a fix without having to start over.

When you reflash stock rom, nothing will change. It would just eliminate the possibility of corrupt files.

yes, you can wipe/factory reset from the stock recovery. with phone switched off press up vol + home + power and hold for a few seconds.

Thanks. I will keep that in mind if it happens again. I did the standard factory reset last night. So far, everything seems to be working fine.
I'm also using the TouchWiz launcher this time around, instead of Nova Launcher Prime to see if it makes a difference.
