@Mathijs: would deleting the browser’s history database help? Try doing
the following, on your device:

    cd /home/phablet/.local/share/webbrowser-app/
    mv history.sqlite history.sqlite.bak

In case it fixes the problem, I’d be interested in taking a look at the
history.sqlite.bak file to understand how it got corrupted (note however
that it contains sensitive information such as URLs you visited, number
of visits and last visit date, so I’d understand if you’d rather not
share it with me; if you do I’ll treat it with the utmost
confidentiality of course).

If that doesn’t help, you could also try the same manipulation with the
following two files (which are located under the same directory):
bookmarks.sqlite and session.json (try one at a time). The same remark
applies: if by chance that fixes the issue, I’d be interested in getting
my hands on the corrupted file if possible (they do contain sensitive
information too).

Title:
  multiple apps crashing at launch

Status in Canonical System Image:
  Incomplete
Status in webbrowser-app package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  os: ubuntu touch 15.04 stable channel r25(OTA6), fully updated, no r/w mode
  device: BQ 45E(Krillin)

  bug: starting this morning, I found that my browser (the default ubuntu-touch one) crashes on startup. All i see is the spinning startup wheel. Then nothing. I am again on the apps scope. Then i found that this is also the case for the Liri browser and Dekko (The difference for Dekko being that it doenst crash. But it neither starts. It just keeps spinning the app startup wheel).
  All other webapps and apps that i have tested continue to work fine. 

  First i tried a reboot but the same behaviour remains.
  Then I noticed that i was low on diskspace(system-settings said I had about 250 MB left) so cleared out some stuff giving me a gig of free space. Reboot again but still the same apps continue to crash when started.

  on irc I consulted jgdx. He had me verify that I had indeed enough space with df -h
  The output for that is here: http://pastebin.com/NbvSKvit

  Then we looked logfiles for the browser app and unity8. They are here:
  http://pastebin.com/Bia7qrkm (webbrowser)
  http://pastebin.com/2UuRuDk6  (unity8)

  Attached is also the .crash file for the webbrowser from /var/crash

  Any other info needed, let me know
