I had the same issue and I had to do factory reset on my phone twice to get rid of this. But I then realized that the issue always happened when I was testing one particular app and thus the prob was narrowed down. Also I saw the error file and it showed OOM crash lines.

Note - I even tried testing on my friend's phone and crashed his launcher too. ;)
