Samsung Note 1 - cut or copy in any app causes it to hang and crash
There is a clipboard-related Samsung firmware bug which is known at least since July 2012 and happens on multiple Samsung devices with Android 4.0.x (ICS). It is reported to be fixed in Jelly Bean updates, but they may not be available for all devices which have this problem. Other solutions discussed in the bug comments, such as removing everything from the /data/clipboard directory, require a rooted phone.

The bug is also not present in custom ROMs which are not based on Samsung TouchWiz (such as CyanogenMod).
