Hi all,
I've tried to update my chrome application (the pre-installed on my Global Poco F3 which is under MIUI Global 12.02 stable global) I have tried multiple times to update the Chrome app from the Google Play Store with no success to this day.
I've investigated using adb logcat and I've seen a specific error trigger itself :
4-10 00:34:14.008 17140 17170 E Finsky : [993] tvh.apply(44): IQ::GROUP_INSTALL: Error validating group. Rejecting requests: [com.google.android.trichromelibrary, com.android.chrome]

I have tried to update chrome on a Redmi Note 8 pro without success as well. However, under LOS (Lineage OS 18.1) another phone has successfully updated the Chrome app, meaning this issue is probably not due to a weird Google Play Store bug but most likely due to MIUI 12.
Anyone has encountered this issue ? And is there any way we could work around this ? (instead of waiting for a potential fix in MIUI 12.5)
Thanks for any help on this matter, I can provide the whole backtrace if anyone want to see it but I doubt it would help anyway since she looks pretty obfuscated to me (the only thing I could understand was some execute function being called but all the classes names have been randomized and most functions call names too).
Hi! This is usually a problem for those who have set up the system for the first time. I also encountered this, after a while Google Chrome was updated on its own. The same applies to the Android System WebView application. Wait for a while and the app will update.
UPD: Or you can download right now from apkmirror.com, if you want

But my Redmi Note 8 Pro isn't brand new, but I still encounter an issue to upgrade Chrome at least, I'm not too sure how long should I be waiting ? (like 6 months or just even a few weeks I guess ?)

Okay, try log out from your Google account, then clear data & cache Google Play Services, Service Framework and Google play store too, then reboot and login again, but not sure about this method
I cannot understand the mistake. I updated Chrome to the latest version 3 days ago.

You were correct, I had unfinished the device configuration (the first time you have to connect your Google account etc.) hence it didn't work to update Chrome and Android Web View, I just finished it right now and Chrome did successfully update. That's weird I think Android should change (if this issue is at the Android level).
In the end I didn't need to do all this logging out, clearing data & cache and so on, just finishing the device configuration solved the issue.

I had a somewhat permanent notification that said something along the lines of "Finish configuration of your device" I clicked on it and then I pressed next and tweaked the last options, once that notification was cleared, all the Google Apps kinda of updated themselves somehow (I saw some of them even reinstalled themselves that was a bit weird but everything went fine afterwards).

Thank you for your help.
Unfortunately I didn't have this message to "Finish configuration". So, I followed a tutorial on internet and erase all Google play store and Google Play services data.
After that rebooted the phone and put my information again on Play Store and than the update starts working for it self.

Good thing you figure it out, and also thanks for explaining how for others who will face this issue, maybe sometimes the notification disappears for some reason or the configuration doesn't finish successfully and this issue happens.

(sorry for the cross-post...but this issue needs more attention)
Unfortunately i think all of us who are affected by this apparent account "corruption" on Google's servers are out of luck until this gets more mainstream exposure. I spoke with 2 Google support techs which was a complete waste of my time. The techs seem to be aware of the problem yet continue reading from scripts like robots. I've yet to read of a single account of someone getting this issue resolved where the account is corrupt on Google's servers. As with everyone else who is suffering from this issue, I'm frustrated and I see no evidence of any progress being made to resolve this issue any time soon.
Since this account is tied to 3 android devices i own...all devices suffer from the same issue.
VERY FRUSTRATING!!

I had this prob when changing roms sometimes. All I did was clearing google framework service cache and also clearing playstore cache. Then reboot. Hope it works for u.
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
Got this problem around a week ago and still no luck...
Talked to Google rep but they seems unaware of this issue and gave me the workaround posted here (non working).
The best I can do to make them update again is this (follow carefully): add the second account, remove the first account,download anything with second account, re-add first account, remove second account, and download the update.
Note that the My Apps list will be empty, I use Changelog Droid ATM, but now app can update EXCEPT the PAID ONE, even though you already purchased it, it'll show BM-PPH-01 error.
SOLVED!!!
I have this alert instead of my apps "error while retrieving information from server. [RPC:S-5:AEC-0]"
I have tried everything, then I've written to googleplay-support, after one hour everything works perfect on my account
Mine started working this morning on my phone & tablet. I had tried all the fixes to no avail. Just started working on it's own
Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 4 Beta
After the email dropped from google play support, i think my account back to normal. now i'm able to see my paid apps and able to update everything (paid and free). Seem likely problem with the new version of Play Store.
For those who still got this problem, you might need to send an email to play support. Hopefully they can reset your info at the end ie Remote Pc.
Good Luck Guys.
Had the same problem.
This did the trick for me :
Go to settings/app.manager/all
Delete data + cache :
Google Play Store
Google Play-services
Google Services Framework
Hangouts
Market-feedbackagent (important)
Then delete google-account
Restart the phone and then re-add google-account.
This worked for me.

Finally found the solution on the Mi Forums.
Goto Settings -> Apps -> Permissions -> Autostart. Enable both options for 'Google Services Framework' i.e. 'Allow apps to start automatically' + 'Allow the app to be started by other apps.
Restart phone.
After that I could sign in.
Maybe the Autostart setting is necessary for contacts and calendar as well.
Thank you! You saved me a lot of trouble, I was about to install new ROM on my phone just because of this problem.
I am replying to this in the event that someone else has had the same problems. I have a cc9 pro China rom. I downloaded the miui 12 update yesterday and Google stopped working. After several hours of trying all the fixes mentioned here and elsewhere this si what worked for me.
Delete everything Google.
Redownload the Google.apk from get apps.
Go through the cycle but parser error will come up.
Go to downloads and click install for first item.
Back to Google apk press button again for second item. Parser error will show.
Back to downloads and install.
Do this each time.
Once installed go to play store and make sure auto updates are turned off. After getting this working the play services updated with the newer version, which in turn stopped everything working again. And I had to go through the entire process again.
DO NOT UPDATE GOOGLE AY STORE OR SERVICES.
The only thing now not working for me is youtube which is not compatible with the old version of the play store.
Hope this helps someone.

Thanks for posting this - I was having major issues on my Mi 10 Lite Zoom until finding and trying this. Everything worked great - for about a week, and now none of my Google stuff works again?? Any thoughts on why? I guess I'll uninstall everything Google again and redo your suggestions above, but I certainly don't want to do this once a week?? Thoughts?

Hello I'm umesh soni, from India
As i mentioned, my playstore is unable to update Chrome browser and its Plug-in (or whatever you call it) WebView, since I updated my phone to latest Android version 10.
I tried to clear Data and force stop, play Store, re-start my phone, clear cache... Every possible thing....
Also I tried to uninstall the chrome, but since chrome is my pre-installed primary browser so I cannot completely uninstall it, so when i tapped Uninstall button, basically it just uninstall the update and back to older version...
Even After doing this, the update button stays unresponsive, i tried to update via opening playstore.com from browser, and tried to update Chrome, and it also not worked.
So finally after everything i decided to download Apk file from other sources, (Apkmirror.com)
But this is not the solution..
Please tell me why only chrome & WebView is not updating, and rest of the app are working completely fine, and update when ever i want.
Please help me...
Thank you.

Hi,
I have a Xiaomi Poco F3 and a Redmi Note 8 pro that are facing the same issue, I have investigated a bit more by doing an adb logcat on only the Poco F3, and I have found that the following error gets triggered when I try to update Chrome.
Code:
4-10 00:34:14.008 17140 17170 E Finsky : [993] tvh.apply(44): IQ::GROUP_INSTALL: Error validating group. Rejecting requests: [com.google.android.trichromelibrary, com.android.chrome]

long backtrace from java
TLDR: Cannot install chrome update because group trichromelibrary and trichromelibrary are in conflict.
Yeah makes senses since this library exists already...thus it conflicts with itself.
I don't know why this check is only made under MIUI 12, and not LOS (Lineage OS roms for instance) because I could update chrome on LOS with no issue like this, this doesn't look like a Google Play Store issue but more a MIUI 12 issue.
Hi
I was on Android 12 and signed in to the beta program 10 days ago.
I've noticed that APKs that were fine on Android 12 are not working anymore on Android 13 Beta.
APKs are crashing at opening.
I thought that may have been an issue related to the beta version of Android but couple of days ago Android 13 stable rolled out (I've signed out from the beta) but those apps are still not working.
I've found older APKs for a couple of apps and one works and one not.
How can I solve this without a factory reset?
Thank you in advance
What are the apps that are crashing? What does a logcat show when the app crashes?
Google introduced restrictions in A13 for side loaded apps. No longer can they use accessibility apis nor can they access notifications etc. Just speculation but if the apps you are using are old they may be crashing because of these changes.

You can bypass those restrictions by going to the app info page of the app and clicking on the 3 dot menu in top right corner.

There are no 3 dots in the right Corner.

Do those apps need Accessibility and/or Notification Access permissions? If not, then I don't think the 3 dot menu needs to be there as it is only for those specific permissions (or whatever other permissions Google might add to the list in the future).
For example, I have Adaway installed but it doesn't have the 3 dot menu because it doesn't need either of those permissions. The same for App Manager.
I am really confused with this new "session-based install" security.
What are "session-based install" and "non-session-based install"
Play store app install --------- surly "session-based install" 100%.
3rd-party store install --------- is said also to be "session-based install".
Firefox download an apk --------- is said to be "non-session-based install",
But how the firefox different from a 3rd-party store????? a system white list something?
safetynet, selinux, forcing many settings, anti-rollback, non-store app restrictions.........
I enjoyed so much that google throws sht tons of troubles to billions of advanced users, to fight an enemy that may not even exist.
(how many people have their phone bootloader secretly unlocked remotely by a hacker and installed root malware, unknowingly?)
Gives a warning is good eg. bootloader locked warning is great IMO. But force the hands and keep finding ways to screw the advanced users as hard as they can, to get the "everything is under my control" status is the wrong path.
I read the news that malware devs have already found a way to bypass this restriction.
In the end, like many others, It achieved nothing, except giving trouble to advanced users and devs.
A global bypass must be also on the way, especially from China. Millions like 90% of APPs are not store-based in China since the google ban, and people are used to download apk from every companies' websites as we do on Windows PC.

3 APKs from the company I'm working for (not on PlayStore) 2 sideloaded apps, and a LADB signed sideloaded APK
For example you cut and CC cleaner keeps crashing all the time.
Same here. Almost every app not from Play Store keeps closing right on tap to start them.
Tried to sideload them per USB with full rights. Same.
My company apps that didn't come from the play store are opening without a problem
Thats Vers Strange, indeed.
Every sideloaded App, modded or Not does Not work
Thought it was me...this is bs!
What's the next step...start posting logs I assume?
It's not EVERY sideload for me but about 1 in 3 I'd say.
btw...I got an 'install failed' trying to install/flash the viper4android mod not realizing how old it was...now I'm seeing lotsa audio/sound related crap in logcat reader. If I AM 'currupt' somehow, will just a rom re-flash fix a magisk issue or do I need a full wipe?
Tia for any guidance offered!

12 won't work right on the 13 bootloader, and you can't downgrade the bootloader.
When I initially tested flashing only the 13 bootloader on my Pixel 6 Pro, while still running Android 12, it booted fine, I unlocked the phone, and all looked normal. But I didn't launch apps, especially Chrome, YouTube, and plenty of other things. If I had, I would have noticed problems that others have had since then. It was since found that certain/many kinds of apps will not work right running on Android 12 when you have the 13 bootloader installed.
I know this above is not what this thread is discussing, but since you mentioned it, I just wanted to point out that if you're on any Pixel 6/Pro/a with Android 13's bootloader flashed, you won't be able to use stock Android 12 on it. You'll be able to flash everything but the bootloader, boot it up, and unlock it, but before long you would discover problems that you wouldn't be able to work around and would effectively make your phone unuseable for many things that we take for granted.
By the way, hopefully you have the 13 bootloader flashed to both slots. Having the 13 bootloader on only one slot is a little dangerous.
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot --slot all flash bootloader bootloader.img
Guys, but are you talking of sideloaded apps, or apps installed as apk?

Hello, I am with Lineage OS (19-20230130-NIGHTLY-gauguin) and for about a week Google Play has stopped working.
It opens normally but when trying to install or update it gets stuck in downloading and then goes to failed. I have enough memory space and haven't made any changes to the device other than updating Lineage OS from time to time via the built-in updater.
I have installed Aurora market and connect it to my google account but the same thing happens when I try to install or update an app: it stays downloading and then fails.
Things I've tried, without success:
- Clear cache and data from Google Play, Google Play Services and download manager.
- Uninstall updates in the Google Play app.
- Uninstall the app from Google Play by fastboot and reinstall it.
- Remove my Google account from the phone and put it back in and sync it.
Any ideas?
Could you figure out where it fails? Perhaps it's "just" the network:
I have an adblocker on my router and lately I couldn't login into several sites properly until I switched from WLAN to mobile.
Alternatively you could try
https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.aurora.store/
It's like Google Play Store without the need for an account.

Thanks for your response. It shouldn't be the network because I'm able to navigate properly. Anyway, I tried both wifi and phone data with the same result. Also, it started happening just a week ago and I have been using the same connection all the time so I would discard it be network related.
Aurora I tried already and gave the same problem as Google Play.

Indeed it's weird... I thought it could be an issue like this but in my case I didn't do an upgrade to a higher LineageOS version, just normal updates.
BTW I love your username

Hang on a second, just tried my FP3 which was on 20230123 and updates working (there was one: Android Auto). Now updating to 20230130 and checking again...
Still updating...
Someone in that reddit link mentioned mindthegapps... I vaguely remembered that I was slightly annoyed/confused with the directions given in the LOS wiki:
OpenGApps vs MindTheGapps
https://wiki.lineageos.org/gapps
Finally decided to go with MindTheGapps... do you recall your choice?
Ah, it finally finished updating: Aurora is up and working (at google translate installed like a charm and works).
