It crashes on my Galaxy S as well, but only at start up, then when i start it back up it is fine. 

 

 My issue is that sometimes it says "last.fm scrobbling failed" when it shouldn't be.

Yes I have a rather big playlist, so you suggest that I erase some from the list and reinstall the app again?

Hey guys, random crashes on Android phones can sometimes be solved with a simple password reset, though I can't say I'm sure why.

Give it a go here at www.spotify.com/password-reset

It did not help...

It might be worth checking your SD card for errors then, as this might causing problems with Spotify.

I don't have an SD card in my phone...

Ah right. I must have been thinking of the S2.

Is your phone crashing at any point in particular? At start-up? While playing local tracks? Anything like that?

The program don´t start at all. 
I have unistalled the program and rebooted the phone, reseted my password, nothing helpes... 

Do you have a large number of playlists? This might be related to a bug we're aware of.

It's worth a try. In the desktop app you can just drag your playlists to your desktop if you want to back them up temporarily.

Also, it's worth combining playlists where possible - try condensing down to single artists/genres and so on. The playlists can be pretty big internally I think without problems.

I solved my problem by, in the mobile phone, open my files/Android/Data/com.spotify.mobile.android.

In there, there are two filemaps, cache and files.

Empty them and uninstall Spotify.

Then restart your phone and install the app again.

This worked for me, I had a big playlist but now it´s a bit smaller.
