Google Play Games not showing "All My Games". - Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A

Okay, so Google Play Games has not been loading all my games under the "All My Games" category. All I ever get is a spinning icon. I am stock unrooted dalvic.
Does anyone else have this problem. I know it used to show all of my games, but I cant pinpoint when it stopped. I have rooted before and had different roms and used ART before. But I have done a complete restore to 4.3 stock as per this guide and updated through the over the air update to 4.4.2. Once on 4.4.2 I then wipe the device from recovery. I have no idea why on bone stock I cannot get this app to show all of my games.
Of course Googling this issue is useless as the idiotic naming scheme for the app and it's menus are too generic to wield any results. On top of that the Google mobile help forums appear to have no way to actually post in them.
Has anyone else had this issue or at least have a recommendation on how to find a way to resolve it?

I am having this exact same issue. Nothing I have done so far has fixed it. It just started happening today. Were you ever able to resolve it?

[Q] Apps un-installing on their own?

Did a search but didn't find anything useful.
Recently my apps have been un-installed without me knowing anything about it. The only thing I can think of is I've updated to the NEW android market and Go Launcher ex. This problem started happening soon after these two updates, so I uninstalled the market update and I'll see if it's still a problem.
Anyone else experience this problem?
Btw, I'm on StarBurst v1.8 (didn't have this problem, just recently after market and launcher update)... then again it could be anything???
One of those apps happen to be wireless tether or something similar?

Yes! (WiFi Tethering by OpenGarden, Inc) ... ?
Update: I un-installed android market update and to my surprise, my old apps started showing up again...wtf? (before I couldn't find them anywhere, app drawer and application management, now they're back everywhere...lol weird).
About that wifi-tether...?
I've been having the same problem, and I'm not even rooted yet. Oh well...

I have go launcher and the new market as well, and sometimes in my folders an icon will turn generic but still work, sometimes will be generic and say application not installed, check the manage apps page and sure enough they arent listed. reboot the phone and they are usually there. Im gonna go back to the older market and then see if it fixes (one of) my problems...

Force closes in YouTube, no restore with TiBackup

Tonight I was trying to watch some videos on YouTube. I was able to watch some videos, but others force close as soon as I click on the video. It seems to be specific channels, but I can't say for sure. I tried clearing the cache and data with no success. I backed up the app with Titanium Backup and uninstalled and tried to download from the market but it doesn't show up for the Nexus (or my Xoom running or ICS so I guess its an ICS thing).
When I tried to restore with titanium, it took forever longer than normal and didn't restore the app, it just stayed at the screen saying restoring. I ended up having to restore my nandroid from the other day.
Has anyone had similar issues in YouTube? What about with restoring apps in titanium? I also had similar behavior with titanium earlier today when I tried to integrate the Google Maps update into my system ROm. Titanium stayed in the operation screen for a long time and never seemed to finish. However, after a reboot, it was no longer listing Google maps as an app with an update that could be integrated into the ROM, leading me to believe the operation actually did finish.
Edit: it appears the same videos are crashing YouTube on my Xoom too. Still no idea why the titanium backup issues are happening though.
WAIT ITS NOT JUST ME?
Thank god. I think its a problem on Youtube's end. I can't even get my subbed videos in the Home tab.
It FC when I click on HD videos.
Same thing happening here. The app also does not recognize my subscriptions, but my favorites show up fine.

yeh happening to me too
first my subscriptions were gone
then videos were crashing when i was searching for tennis videos (search term was 'wta') and a lot of videos were crashing from that result.
will watch this thread with interest
thanks
Am experiencing the same problem on 4 different mobile (galaxy tablets & phones) devices.
Subcriptions not showing up
Some Videos force closing etc.
All was fine yesterday.
Googled the issues and discovred that Youtube are forcing some changes.
It's happening to me also. First I thought it was a new mod I was testing out but it's also happening on my wife's stock Incredible.
I thought I'd be happier knowing it wasn't just my problem but the truth is, I'd just like to watch some videos.. lol
wow, while it's nice to know it's not my device kirking out, it would be nicer if it would just work. i don't have any solution, so just hoping youtube addresses it soon. maybe this is why youtube app isn't in the market for ics devices--it's not compatible yet. Although I am fairly certain that it was working just a few days ago.

Possible JB Bug: View Type: Alphabetical list

So I've been fighting with Touchwiz force closing quite often since the JB update. I flashed the full official ROM from Telus, as well as 2 other Telus based ROMS, all suffered from the same problem. The only thread I found pertaining to a similar issue is HERE.
Issue:
Touchwiz force-closing (stopping), when creating folders, or moving icons on the homescreen (like to delete them or move them to another homescreen).
In a nutshell, myself and 2 friends all have GS3s. 2 of us were having the issue, myself (rooted) and my friend (unrooted, completely stock), where as another friend (rooted) was not having the issue.
After much hair pulling and testing (3 different ROMS, using different computers and cables to flash, having my device flashed by my friend who was not having the issue), I came to the conclusion that Touchwiz was force closing ONLY when the App Drawer was in "Alpahbetical List" view type. When it was in a "grid" view type, there were no issues.
I was wondering if anyone else could do some testing and let me know if I'm on the right track with this.
I ask that you change your App menu to "Alphabetical List", and use it normally for a few hours or days, and let me know if you see any instances of Touchwiz force closing. If I see enough response, I'll start looking into how to place a bug report on this.
Thanks.
Did you wipe/factory reset? You should not be having issues like that if you did.I don't see any of that.

I wiped, factory reset, cleared caches, etc several times, as well as trying 3 different ROMS like I said.
The only way I could fix it was to clear data from Touchwiz Home. But the issue would still come back after a few hours.
So you are on JB, and are using "Alphabetical list" without issues??
Did you back up system and maybe restored the data wipe titanium by accident? If you have a clean install with nothing restored yet does it do this? If not install back all your apps one by one widget by widget to see what is causing this. Could be an app compatible issue. I tried to replicate your issue and could not at all.

Essentially a clean install, nothing installed or restored with titanium, and the issue was there. I think the only apps I had installed were Chrome browser, Go SMS (or Handcent, I tried them both because I thought maybe one of them was causing the issue), and Facebook. Other than that, I was on a stock rom (rooted).
I was just able to re-create the issue by doing the following:
1) Switch app list view type to "Alphabetical list".
2) Go to task manager, do a "Clear memory"
3) Go to homescreen, grab an icon, as if to remove it from home screen, and let it go.
Touchwiz force closes (Unfortunately, TouchWiz Home has stopped). As soon as I set it back to "Alpahbetical grid", everything works as it should.
Note: I do have a folder in the shortcut area on the homescreen (bottom, next to the Apps button), not sure if this makes a difference, but it usually starts when a folder is created...
I was able to recreate this problem on 2 Telus devices, and 1 stock Rogers device, all running JB.
Followed that and I still unable to recreate this. I also have a folder on mine in dock for email with Gmail and email in it. I am at&t though. Even though I am not sure if it matters.

Hmmmm, interesting. I was thinking of perhaps trying an AT&T based ROM (all I've tried were Telus based, and was able to recreate the bug on a friends Rogers device as well...). Maybe it's Canadian devices only? I did notice that it doesn't seem to be a very widespread issue. Although there was a thread about it, there were very few responses...
I'll see about flashing an AT&T ROM, but for the moment, its working properly in grid view, so I'm good with that.
Thanks for the input though!
I'm not able to reproduce this issue on my SGH-I747M (Rogers) running stock (not rooted) Android 4.1.1.
If you factory reset/wipe data on the stock ROM, configure the phone without installing any third-party apps from the Play Store (heck, don't even bother signing in with a Google account initially for this one), then set the app drawer to alphabetical list and attempt to reproduce the issue as per your earlier steps does it still occur? Just curious.

Thanks for trying it out.
I was actually able to reproduce it on my friends stock Rogers 4.1.1 OS.
I was able to reproduce it with a minimal install of third-party apps (mentioned in another post, I think I had Chrome, Go SMS and Facebook installed...).
Perhaps I'll give it a try if I flash a new ROM anytime soon. Right now, my device is working well, and I only figured out it was the List option causing me the problem after installing a bunch of apps and customizing. Don't feel like resetting right now just to try to reproduce it, lol.
Tested on Rogers Stock 4.1.1 root injected, no issues at all here.

Google Now Not Displaying Cards After Awhile

Does anyone have this issue? After about 60hrs of reboot Google Now just stops to display any cards and it is just blank with the google searchbar on top...
I have Google Now enabled and never had this issue before. Tried clearing cache and app data and that doesn't fix the issue. Only reboot helps. This is annoying. Any help is appreciated. I am running stock Android 4.3 (no root).
Thank you!

Ive had this happen before. I dont really know what causes it, it just fixes itself usually. I did, however, find that at one point I had both of my devices with Google Now and they had different settings enabled and it was messing up what was shown. That was a while ago and I think the settings sync now. But you never know. If you have two devices, try that. Also, you can try to clear the data for the app and see if it fixes it.
I have tried clearing the app data and that didn't do much. Still having the issue. I will check the settings on my tablet for Google Now, maybe you are right and this is what causes my problems. Thanks for the idea-will give it a try.
It's generally "normal" I think.
I really wish Google would give us more control over Now... Soon?

I'm also experiencing this "issue". I use Galaxy Note II and CarbonRom 1.8 here. Decided to search Google for this and found this thread.
I thought it was due to a lot of ROM flashing I was doing here, so maybe it eventually messed up my Google account info on servers and made my Google Now became empty some times, but I realized that probably it's some technical difficulties on Google Now server itself, since it's happening with more people.
Let's hope for an update to solve this. It's pretty annoying!

Did this issue get resolved for you? I have found the problem and I temporary fix.
The issue is related to the new Google play services 3.2..they changed location to use wifi as Android 4.3 has it on at all times.. This is to save power from using GpS.. Anyway if your not running 4.3 and have wifi on all the time your location based cards will not work...
The solution, downgrade to Google play services 3.1 Everything works great on 3.1..

This issue got solved by itself here, but thanks for the tip anyway!
By the way, I'm using 4.2 here and in fact I don't have wifi enabled all the time. Need to say also that Google Now in Brazil is not sooo much great, it does not have so many services, only the basic ones, so maybe it had something to do with Brazilian Google servers issues on that time.

Note II lags while updating apps from Play Store

Hello Guys,
I have been having this problem from quite some time now (And frankly I don't remember since when).. Whenever my apps are getting updates from the Google Play Store, my mobile becomes painfully slow and lags majorly. It like as if you are using Jellybean on a device meant for Android Eclairs! My system is neither rooted not modified. I had the same problem even on 4.1.2 so it is not the firmware issue. My Note II has Kaspersky antivirus installed which checks every new and updated app. I thought it may be because of this so I uninstalled the app but still no effect Toggling Power Saving Mode On/Off does not make any difference either
I have no idea what is causing it and it is really troublesome.. I have A LOTT of apps and sometimes it updates almost 10 12 apps in a go which is really irritating with the lag!!
Have have chosen any option that is causing this?? Or any app??
Please help me with this
Cheers!
I have the same issue and I thought it started with update to Android 4.3, but it is probably due to update of Play Store application, now that you say you also had this problem on 4.1.2... Everything is smooth (ROM) except when I'm updating apps, it freezes so much I'm unable to do anything and I remember I used to run "update all" and then go back to Launcher and did other things while update run in the back... now it is slowing down the system... I wondered if it is a problem with XPrivacy module, but probably not...
Has anybody got any help on this?
