Play Store doesn't install anything - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everybody,
I was on Fulmics 6.1 and everything was fine. Then I updated to Fulmics 6.6 and the Play Store did not manage to download any app. I tried to go back to Fulmics 6.0, I wiped everything, tried to delete the play store cache and data but the problem seems to persist...

are you getting any error? could be an issue with your wifi connection.. have you tried using your mobile data connection?

I have performed several tries in meanwhile...
Some apps get downloaded, but others won't. It doesn't really seems to be related to the size of the app.
Sometimes the error 495 appears. I have tried to disinstall the play store updates, delete the data and cache, and so for the download manager and google play services. The problem appears even on mobile phone data.
I'm using Aptoide to replace the Play Store but it isn't really the best solution

are you having the same issue with the fulmics 5 and cm13 too?

No, I haven't tried Fulmics 5, only 6.0, nor CM13 (I don't wanna change the baseband, I could make more damages D: )
I have tried using another wifi and some apps that I couldn't download on my wifi got downloaded, but there are still apps that can't be downloaded in any way...Everytime appears the 495 error that I can't resolve with the usual fixes...

Can't download from Google Play

Hey there!
So, I have this problem: when I try to download/update anything from Google Play, it just stucks at "Downloading..." and never finishes. After couple of hours it says that it has a problem with host. Some people said that I should delete data/cache in Settings>Apps>Google Play ... done, nothing changed. I've already tried to switch networks (wi-fis at home, at work, at friends house..) and tried to download via 3G aswell. I've reflashed the phone from ARHD to Renovate ROM and still nothing has changed.
Anybody knows what's the problem? :crying:
Curently I'm running on HTC One X RENOVATE 3.0.0 Android 4.0.4 2.05.401.2
I'm having similar problem on my tablet aswell. Constantly getting server timeout
I'm not sure, but I think I have a related issue. I'm on ARHD 8.1 and since I have gotten a weird connection error while installing "set orientation" app, I can't install anything from the browser on my mac, cause apperently "I have no devices". Play works fine on the htc one x, but it doesnt link up to the account, cause my downloads dont show in the browser. Last app installed is the set orientation app even though I installed skype afterwards...
Play Stor problem
Im facing the same problem, i just flashed Renovate Rom and trying to get into the google play store and nothing is working, tried deleting the cache, using 3G or wifi nothing seems to work.
Anyone can help ?
I had thus problem to d reason I found out I have it is that I never wiped cache and davlic cache when ever I installed a new Rom

i have same problem too before uninstall google play and service......reboot...install it again...
hmmm i had somthing like this some time ago while dowloading big games like GTA and such... what i tried is canceling and then imidiatly retring the download. You could also change from network, use other wifi or your own data.
Btw is your account set up download just in wifi? because it wont download unless you are in a wifi network
Hope this helps

Well if not working try reseting the phone
I had the same problem yesterday, and I tried to check the My Apps menu in Playstore, it happened that all apps in "Installed" tab are downloading updates all at the same time. So I cancelled all the process and everything is back to normal.
Update Error
Hi! I'm having the very same problem. Any advice please?
Are the apps you are trying to update on the micro sd. If so try moving them to the device storage before you update.

Possible solution
@reaf
A factory reset should work. However, I disabled my downloads app and the downloads provider and the play store refused to open.
I think that you should try to disable both of them; wipe any data or cache.
Then reboot and enable them and reboot again.
This should solve the problem.
Nexus 7 2013 Marshmallow not play store joy...
My Nexus 7 2013 updated with latest OTA Marshmallow some time ago, have rebooted a couple of times since then, suddenly stopped doing any app updates even though it seemed to think it needed to do so. The downloading progress bar would just go on forever. I finally got fed up and reset cache and data, rebooted and nothing. Then I did a factory reset, but let it try to re-add all my apps, that was taking forever as well and never actually getting anything to complete the installation. Then I did a factory reset without restoring any apps. The tablet runs, I can surf the web, lots of other things, but when I start the play store it apparently is the older version of the play store and it never wants to update itself. When I click the play store build(5.12.7) within play store settings, it says there is a newer version available and will be installed. That hasn't happened for 2 solid days now. I can't get any apps to install at all and the play store is stuck on the older version.
Advice?
P.S. Yes, I have a good WiFi connection.
I am having this issue now on Zenfone 2 version 4.168. Somehow, this started happening after my friends wifi went down. When it came back I still couldn't use it effectively. I could not connect to games or google play store. I tried clear cache and data from services and play store one by one but no solution. I booted to recovery and wiped cache from there still no difference. Factory reset was only solution that worked and that was my last resort. I thought the wifi I was on got hacked or ddosed because thats when issues started. So it has happened again after I did the factory reset. I synced my apps from gmail after I reset and it was fine for at least 4 hours till now I can't connect to game of war and when I go to play store and my apps, I get can't connect to play store.

Need help making play store work

Hello guys I am facing a strange problem with play store from a few days. I cannot update or download apps from playstore, it says downloading and stays there forever. I have tried countless tips/tricks but nothing works. Here are the things I have tried(not in order):
Clearing cache and data of play store+services+download manager, re flash gapps, re flash ROM, flash new ROM, change DNS, use vpn, trying different G-accounts, downloading on 3g, 4g, different wifi hotspots. Now I am really frustrated because nothing works. And I am not comfortable with downloading apps from other sources. My device is Lenovo K5 plus (AOKP Nougat).

[SOLVED] Facebook install/upgrade under Open Beta 8 (Nougat)?

Hi,
I'm having problems installing the Facebook, Messenger, and Amazon Kindle apps from Google Play Store after switching to Open Beta 8 (Nougat) and doing a clean wipe. It basically hangs at "downloading" (doesn't download anything), then gives me the error 492. Is anybody else seeing this (or not seeing it)? Installation from Titanium backup works, but then when I try to upgrade, I get the same results.
Thanks.

Thanks, I forgot to mention that I tried the all the usual clear cache/downgrade Play Store/Play Services advices. At this point I am mostly wondering if it's an issue of the Open Beta 8. I.e. do other people on that ROM see the same problem or not?

No, I tried two different WiFi networks and my carrier's network (T-mobile US), with same results. All other apps work. Wiped and installed again (from Google backup), same apps causing problems.

i have not had this issue when i clean flashed the beta8 build from a 100% stock setup. have you wiped data and internal storage too before installing 7.0?
stuff like this happened to me a long time ago, and it was usually caused by some data left over from a previous rom where the problematic apps had been installed

Thanks, that's very useful. I followed this guide http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=69389114&postcount=3 after getting my stock/reset phone back from repair (had the issue where the camera wouldn't focus).

Success, I repeated everything to reset the phone, skipped installing from Google backup and copying back the old Internal Storage directory, and now everything installs just fine. Thanks again, bombaglad.

Play App Update do not install (download is ok ...)

Hi,
since abut 3 or 4 weeks I've more and more problems with my Z2. I'm on stock 8.0.0, not branded, pure Moto. One of my problems is, that Play Store updates get downloaded but then do not install. When I reboot my phone the app update which got previously downloaded installs and the the process got stuck again. Some time suddenly two or tree apps get updated. The the problem starts over. I've tried every thing I've found e.g. clearing Play caches etc. nothing helped.
Edit: a closer look showed that the download hangs at the last few bytes but some times it downloads to 100% but just does not install.
Any suggestions?
TIA

Try stopping the play services and store app, clear data and cache, then try again. If that doesn't see if the issue is with wifi or data, switch one or the other off then try updating or installing an app, see if the problem is connection specific. You can also try clearing the phone cache from storage as well. I know these are trivial suggestions, but it never hurts to double check. Might clear your storage cache and check the permissions as well.

Thanks. Tried all this already. May be it's liked to my WiFi problem as it seems to be "better" now. If the problem persists I think I will try to factory reset it ...
