Cannot update profile without throwing error “There was a problem updating some

Same error from here https://buddypress.org/support/topic/cannot-update-profile-without-throwing-error-there-was-a-problem-updating-some-of-your-profile-info/ and posted a few other times but I can’t find any solutions.

Deactivate all plugins and I still get the error. The user’s profile information successfully updates, but it takes them back to the edit screen and shows that error.

I’m stupid, I was fooling around trying to find a way to prevent users from changing their display name and added some code:
```
function disable_name_change( $data ) {					// Prevent users from changing display name
if ( 1 == $data->field_id )
$data->field_id = false;
return $data;
}
add_action( 'xprofile_data_before_save', 'disable_name_change' );
```
And this was causing it.

I’ve resorted to just hiding the display name and field field in my theme’s css, so this is not necessary anyway.
