galaxy s3 missing some apps after reboot - Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 Themes, Apps, and Mods

ok... this phone is getting long in the tooth.
after a reboot, apps like Podcast, instagram and ampre are missing! its totally random
I go to redownload on play store... I get a 101 error. wiping cache was strange- I got errors on the screen from those certain apps and it didn't fix the problem
what the hell is going on and how can I fix it?

You do realize this is the Galaxy Tab S3 forum (tablet) and not the S3 phone.

That said 101 error is user account verification error. Google can help you find how to fix it.

sorry wrong sporting area..
my problem was simular to this https://forums.androidcentral.com/htc-evo-4g-lte/225647-some-apps-disappearing-after-reboot.html
eventually it booted properly... its a sign that this 2012 phone is on its last legs.

Market downloads not showing in My Apps

I have this issue that is highly annoying. This has been going on for a while. I can not see any of my apps in the market. Here is a list of what I tried.
1. celared market cache and data
2. rebooted recovery and cleared cache and delivik cache.
3. re-flashed rom
Help!!!!
I have the same issue. I have tried all the things you mentioned, and I have also tried uninstalling and reinstalling the market, and using TB to destroy and fix all my market links. I have searched for a solution to this, but it seems to me that no one has found a reliable solution.
I use AppBrain as a workaround.
More information is here: https://groups.google.com/a/googlep...pic/android-market/technical-help/Ny19XMKGzZ0
Well at least I know I am not the only one.
I called Market support, and the guy I talked to said that he had to forward it to the developers, so we will see what they say.
http://support.google.com/androidmarket/bin/request.py
EDIT: I forgot to mention, but the guy I talked to also sent me an email with a market link to every app I've ever purchased from the Android Market.
very common issue right now. ive done EVERYTHING i can think of. clear cache, uninstall market, reinstall, wipe market links, rebuild market links, flash same rom, flash different roms, factory data reset, and RTN with my MSL. nothing works. and i dont know anyone else in my family/friends/coworkers that is having the problem. when i googled it, i found dozens of other phone types that have this same problem, some as far back as september.
PRO TIP: use aTrackDog to check for updates and make a list of on device apps.
Reboot
After I reboot my phone the apks appear in my gallery.
I have noticed that when the market updates (when you accept the agreement...again) and you have multiple google accounts linked on your phone, it sometimes changes the default account you had it set as. You need to then select menu -> accounts and choose which account is the default you made the market purchase with.
I'm sure this post is for a completely different issue, but just wanted to post this to weed out some unneeded frustrations.

I really wish it was that easy. I only have one market account.
I had this problem too and the only way I could fix it was not restoring my apps with Titanium Backup after installing a new ROM. I've heard other people remedied the problem this way too.
This problem started for me after I did the "Destroy all Market links" feature trying to fix the update lag on some of my apps. The problem kept happening after using "Market Doctor" and even installing a new ROM and running "Restore missing apps with (and with out) data".
My issue being resolved may have been a fluke, maybe someone else could confirm?

i know what youre talking about. i have done exactly this, but it did not work for me... but im glad it worked for you! lol
"Destroy all market links" is essentially the issue that you guys are having. I have ran into the same problem. Open titanium backup, hit "menu", "market tools" then "market doctor"
That should fix the problem. It has for me every time.
uhm i have this happen sometimes. and usually its because of having multiple google accounts. Are you sure ur markets on the correct account?

Thanks for the suggestion, but I have done this multiple times.
It occurs even after I wipe, flash a new ROM, and don't even mess with TB. Makes me think it has something to do with the market account itself.
I'm really getting frustrated about this. I can flash back to stock and it still does this to my phone. I only have one google account signed. Really this is surprising that more people don't have this issue. I hope it gets fixed someday because it's ruining my experience with my phone. My other phone (htc thunderbolt) has no issues.

Another issue that I've found is that I think some apps aren't compatible with 2.3.6 or or something about these roms because some apps seem to disappear sometimes for no reason. I don't know, I'm blaming it on the market, the app developers and fragmentation.. lol
I too have this same issue, single email account, various roms running
Yup, same issue for me. I have 1 account, tried every possible option in Titanium Backup and Market (uninstall/reinstall, clear data, destroy links, flash back to stock, etc).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1402303
Strange thing is that I do not have this issue on my SPH-D700 Epic 4G.
Again, I think it's an issue with Google/Market. Somehow the data linked to my SPH-D710/EpicTouch in Market is corrupt and causing issues.
I did notice that this issue first started after I tried purchasing Read It Later Pro. Market shows that the app was PURCHASED and ready to INSTALL but the transaction never went through. This is when my trouble started. Like I said, so far no acknowledgement or help from Google about the issue.

I'm noticing that the carrier field in my Market Account -> Settings is blank (it should say "Sprint".
https://market.android.com/account?settings
Anyone else have the same?
Mine says Sprint and mine doesn't work.

I may have stumbled on a fix in my case. I was debloating my apps, and I removed the Market Feedback Agent using Titanium Backup and my apps now show up. YMMV.
Rebooted into recovery and wiped cache and dalvik as well.

[Q] Cant install paid apps TODAY - Market Issues?

I can't seem to dl any paid apps at the moment from either my SGSII or my Galaxy Nexus. I can dl free apps OK but get "an error occurred. Please try again" message on any paid app.
I was able to dl from the internet but not from the market app itself and I have never had issues before.
Anyone else having an issue like this today? I'm in Canada by the way on Rogers and always have been able to dl paid apps...
I have cleared the cache and wiped the app data and rebooted each device but still get this error when trying to do paid apps...
Bump... Anyone?
I have the EXACT same issue. I've had a ticket open with Google support for 8 days now... and they have failed to get back to me about much of anything...

May I ask what country youre in? You have the SAME issue as me? Can you install free apps but just not the PAID apps?
I now seem to not be getting push notifications from Gmail and things as of this morning anymore either and again... This affects BOTH my GNEX and my SGSII so I know its NOT device related...
Ive read some other threads on Market Issues that are SOMEWHAT the same but not exactly and followed their instructions to fix the issue such as... Deleting my Google account and re adding it, Deleting my credit card and re adding it, etc and nothing has worked...
I mut have deleted the app cache and data like 30 times on EACH device and rebooted like 30 times on each device and still I get the same error...
FRUSTRATING!!!
At least I know its not JUST ME and if I had to GUESS.. Id say that this issue has to do with the switch from Google Checkout to Google Wallet...
*EDIT* My push notifications from Gmail have returned but the Market Error still exists!!! GRRRRR!!!
So... I got a reply from Android today and they advised that I uninstall all market updates to rectify this issue. I did so on my SGSII and rebooted my phone and low and behold.... IT FIXED THE ISSUE... I will try it on my Nexus too if I need to...
EDIT - It did not fix the issue completely as I still get this error but after a couple trys it will let me in to purchase apps ONLY on my SGSII...
Ok so... I did what they said and uninstalled the market updates from my SGSII and it seems to have worked... well... kind of...
I still get the error but now if i try it like 3 times or so it finally lets me purchase paid apps BUT...
I went to do this on my GNEX but since market v3.4.4 CAME with the device there is NO update(s) to uninstall and as such I still CANT purchase paid apps from my GNEX market app... :-(
For ANYONE who is having the same issues as I am, keep an eye on this thread because I wont stop until I figure this out...
Ok, so... I got another email from the help desk telling me to factory reset my device(s) and that should fix it (even though this is CLEARLY NOT device related) so I backed up my items from my GNEX ONLY (as I seem to now have a 75% properly functioning market now on my SGSII as I mentioned in my previous post and dont wanna mess with it) and factory reset and it STILL did not work!!!
I then tried another tip I found here and cleared the cache from the "download manager" app AND again from the Market and THAT did NOT work either!!!
This is getting VERY upsetting!!!
Again... For ANYONE who is having issues like this or similar please keep an eye here as I will continue to post any progress.
I fixed it by deleting all updates to market in Settings/Applications/Manage?Market app. Google Talk could then work as well.
Have the exact same problem now.
Not sure what the issue is!
Have done all the "regular" fixes.
Drives me nuts tbh!
Running AOKP B27, stock Kernel.
Did anyone ever get this fixed? I'm having the same issue on multiple ROMS...currently running Codename Android 1.4.0 I can download free ones no problem but not paid apps....
I'm running AOKP B27 with Trinity Kernel and just bought Poweramp off the market a couple hours ago for $1.99 (48 hour special)...
I had the same problem. I tried all the other poosible solutions, the " Settings > aplication > all > Google Services Framework and force stop, clear cache then reboot your phone." solution did it for me

[Q] Chrome Freezes When Loading Wikipedia page

For the past few months, I have been living with an issue on my Nexus 7 (2013) that I've been too lazy to try and fix. Its now ticked me off enough that I'm doing some research into this.
I have been having this weird issue with Chrome on my N7, whenever I go to Wikipedia, Chrome freezes. I get the error that chrome has taken too long and if I would like to end it, or wait. It takes probably 2-3 of the "Wait" taps for it to finally start responding again. Its only wikipedia that this happens on, as I haven't seen it happen on any other site.
I'm currently running stock 5.0.2 with no root, but this has also occured on kitkat, and with custom ROMS like CM. I also have a Galaxy S3, and Chrome is fine on that for wikipedia, so this is just on my Nexus 7.
Today, I decided to try something, so I reset my Chrome install, and re-launched it without logging into my gmail account, and it seems to have solved the issue. (It does freeze, but only for a second or two, and then its fine). So, it looks like its something within my profile that reacts badly with wikipedia and my nexus 7. So, my question is, where do I look next? Should I go to my google dashboard and clear all Chrome sync? Would I lose my bookmarks if I do that? Thoughts?
How about trying to
1. Install chrome beta to see what happens.
2. Clear the app cache
3. Clear /cache and /dalvic-cache
I also had similar problem on CM12, and seems to be solved by installing chrome as a system app, but you are on stock...

Facebook constantly crashing

I was having issues with Snapchat yesterday as soon as i open the app it stop working but looked online and found it was a global issue with Snapchat however today Facebook is constantly crashing exactly the same way with the error Facebook has stopped working when trying to open the app, can't find any issue with this online, I've cleared the cache for the app, reinstalled it to no avail, rebooted the phone still the same issue, is anyone else having app crashes on their pixel 2 xl? Nothing has changed on my phone since these issues cropped, haven't installed any apps for a while.
I believe facebook crashing is facebook its issue not Android problem.

Yeah it looks like that i just can't understand why, i haven't updated the app in a while and it's been fine, also my partner isn't having any problems on her pixel 2 same version of Facebook so can't get my head around why it's crashing on mine.
GF is having same issue on her iPhone. FB issue I think, server side. It looks like it's trying to load data or something and just closes

actually not such a bad thing, wasting too much time on facebook need to get back to productivity
I have a fix for you, get rid of that bloat infested, disease filled, resource hogging, data stealing app and use one of the many alternatives, I personally use Maki.

Google contacts on PX5 6.0.1 unit.

Hi.
I have just installed Google Assistant. I believe PX5 android head units could not install this but it seems after getting a notification, it let me install. I also installed the google play store for the app and it installed without a problem, however, after playing around with it for a bit i stumbled upon a few issues but there is a big issue that is most concerning for me.
I have synced all my google information onto the head unit from my google account, but as i was about to "ok google, call dad" it seems that there is no contacts synced. I can not for the life of me understand why this simple procedure is not working.
I noticed on my head unit that i dont have a designated place for contacts to be stored, so i assumed i would have to sync the contacts from my google account for this to work.
Has anybody came across this issue? I have searched the forums but can't find a thread relating to anything similar.
I am wondering now how anybody makes an "ok google" phone call from there head units?
I have seen on a few videos of different units that some users have an app for contacts, is this missing from my unit??
Thanks for reading and hopefully there will be a fix *fingers crossed*
