Question Play-systemupdate not working in A13? - Google Pixel 6 Pro

I have noticed that since I upgraded to A13, the Play systemupdate is totally void.
When I press it in settings, nothing happens. On A12 it showed at least a screen 'Checking for update ...'.
Now nothing happens ...
Anybody has the same behavior?
(it shows as being on July 2022 now for me)

Hmmm ... just found this article on 9to5Google talking about this ...
[U: Fix] Google Play system updates on Pixel and Samsung lose 'Check for update' button
With the latest Google Play system update for August 2022 detailed this week, Android owners are seeking out the "Check for update" button...
9to5google.com

I believe that this was thoroughly discussed here in a different thread yesterday or the day before. Your thread title, however, is better suited for this question =).
Here is the linked thread:
A13, another "Am I the only one?" Thread!
Ok all, I'm getting quite frustrated with my P6P. Was on A12 and sideloaded the OTA for 13 Beta 4.1. I didn't want to lose any data but also didn't want to enroll in the beta program which would have pushed the OTA anyway. Beta was working...

Google Play Store v31.9.20-21 is rolling out and will fix that Play System Updates "bug"

31.9.20 broke the update for me (that worked flawlessly before), Play Store 32 fixed it.

I'm still on Play Store 31.9.13-21, and the Play System Update "button" is dead, so mine's broken even before receiving 31.9.20.

Wear update screwed up the watch

I got the latest update to the wear app and after was getting delayed notifications. Decided to try reseting the watch and now it's not installing any apps to the watch and the watch is heating up and dying quickly. I've reset the watch again, cleared out the data and uninstalling android wear and reinstalled and it does the same thing I went from line 80% battery to 26% in like a half hour. Anyone have any thoughts
Edit: also the watch is stock no root or anything
Yup, I just updated. Lost 10% battery in the last 20 minutes. Something is not right.
I'm not seeing this, but it does show that Google really needs to have a way of reapplying an update and/or reverting back. This can be done via ADB sideload for phones/tablets, and we need an equivalent for AW. (This may already exist, but I'm just not aware of it... at least not an official way.)
There's an update to the Wear app in the Play Store now.

Is this another update newer than the one on the Play Store with a date of 07 Sept? Or are you talking about that one?

Oh, I think it's the 07 Oct one, version 1.0.2.1476973. I didn't see it until this morning (8 Oct Singapore time). No issues with it thus far.

Yeah me too. Just updated. App didn't force close or anything and watch seems to be the same still. Dropped 2% after update though -.-
The Oct 7 wear update just crashes on my Moto X. Had to uninstall and reinstall the older verwion from titanium backup. It did that with the earlier release too, I think it's date was Oct 3. There is something wrong somewhere.
Well after a recharge and another reset along with deleting all wear app data and uninstalling it and removing the 360 from the Bluetooth menu it synced and send ok again today. Plus the original slow notification issue is gone now too. Now if they'd just give be an option to show the step card less often is be set

Hi, same situation here on Droid Mini.
Can you send me your backup for older Wear?
Thanks
heres the apk before the update, uninstall updated app and install this one.
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/28511905/com.google.android.wearable.app-1.apk
The new release today (1.0.2.1534065 Oct 23) doesn't seem to fix the problem either. Both of the most recent updates cause this issue for me:
Android Wear 1.0.2.1534065 (current, Oct 23 release) Google Play or apkmirror
Android Wear 1.0.2.1476973 (Oct 6 release) apkmirror
Work arounds I've unsuccessfully tired so far:
Install/re-install, clearing Android Wear data & cache
Removed all other Wear apps
Cleared data & cache from Google Play Services
Factory reset Moto 360
Switched from ART to Dalvik & back
Direct install of v1.0.2.15 and v1.0.2.14
Upgrade from functioning v1.0.1.13 to v1.0.2.15 and to v1.0.2.14
Even tried to re-enable all of the pre-installed Moto bloat I had previously frozen
Multiple combinations of the above, with reboots between steps
I can, however, still use the older version of the Android Wear app without issue:
Android Wear 1.0.1.1379611 (Oct 2 release) apkmirror
Anyone with any other suggestions?

You can turn the step cards off. That's what I did. When u receive one. Just swipe until u get to settings and turn it off.

Everything was fine, now Playstore won't load

A few months back, I had side-loaded Google apps onto my stock device.
(I'm on 4.6.6.1 now - not sure if this upgrade happened recently...)
I am using it with a Project Fi data-only sim and letting the kid use it for Pokemon Go.
All of a sudden, PoGo won't start (GPS signal not found), and I can't load the Play Store (it just says at a blank white screen). Anyone else have something like this happen, and is there a simple fix?
Me too,today Nov 11 my google maps and play store dont work
same for me since 4 days....
I'm not on stock atm but in the past that exact thing would happen to my Google play if Google sent an update for it's services that somehow broke it on the firephone. Google has made about 3 updates this month so try reinstalling an older version or something and see if it works.
I don't need this when the whole world is falling apart.

All my fire phones were working fine with side loaded framework, google services, play store etc. as explained in the xda forum. They would automatically update and nothing broke except for a brief period a year or so ago which got fixed automatically after a few days. I know Google broke it with an update at that time, but not sure who fixed it -- Amazon or Google.
But now, the same things has happened. With Google Services update a couple of days ago things have come off their moorings.
Youtube, Maps, and the Play store itself are on the blink. Other things which require Play services also are gone, of course.
I am afraid, this time around, Amazon seems to have really given up on the fire phone. So the chances are quite bleak that they would take any trouble to fix this. eg. They don't even support Amazon Music Unlimited, and Audible on their own Fire Phone! Both are Amazon's own products!!
Check out this thread, last couple pages. Got me going again (for now, anyways).

Thanks. That got me going for 36 hours. Then it automatically started updating, and back to square one... Google Play Services has stopped working blah blah blah..
The deicsion to freeze and branch off from a version of Android was a very short-sighted selfish, customers-be-damned decision.
Amazon seems to be a really bad version of Apple without the technical wherewithal to sustain itself.
What a pity. The fire phone itself is a great one.
Is there any chance that a non-Google non-Amazon fix can work at all?

Since we're here, I'm assuming we have our phones rooted. That said, is there some way to just block the updater with a firewall or something similar?
The new google play services update broke all amazon google services in stock fire OS
We have to block the update process or wait for fix in next play services update
Anyone find a way to fix it

"Wrong!!"
Sorry, the would is still fresh..
No.. none of my phones is rooted. The beauty of this Xda-forum solution of side loading the four files (Account framework, Account Manager, play services, & play store) was that they don't have to be rooted.
Just update framework and Login Component to Version 4.4.4 and delete the data from store and Services and everything should be fine.

Updating all manually to the newest kitkat version does seem to do it (though, I only just did it). Didn't even check the versions as I assumed they auto-updated as well. Should last a bit longer now till that version is too old.
Good catch. Thanks.

Not sure if people are still following this thread but I thought to share. I was able to sideload Amazon music unlimited. It disables native music app but doesn't launch using the same app link. I need to use ES Explorer's App library function to select and launch. Otherwise it works well. Not sure if the audible app would work the same.

Play store issue and Netflix on Android 10

Seems the phone with 10 it's "uncertified device", I checked magisk hide, wiped play store storage, rebooted and... still no Netflix, but most importantly certified device is ****ing gone! No more section under play store settings! Any ideas?
The Netflix issue has existed for months and is unrelated to 10. Do a search, and you will see my name all over the posts. As for the device not certified issue, hide Play Store with Magisk clear cache and data and then uninstall updates so it reverts to factory Play Store which will update and certify..

Google - Netflix apk mirror. Install the latest from there. It will update from the play store after even.

I did everything again, also uninstalled the updates like u say (I didn't try it before) and nothing changed, the strange thing is this, look the screenshot, the certified section under settings in the store is completely gone!
EDIT: I've installed an old apk and now when I've open the play store link of the app it's says "the application it's not compatible anymore"
I did some testing on this in another thread and it seems the issue is the unlocked bootloader. Has little or nothing to do with the Playstore being certified which mine is.. and still can't install Netflix from the store. I sideloaded on the final version of 10 and Netflix does work.. But it's still a hassle.

DvLAx3l - From what I have seen, when it shows neither certified or not it is actually certified and just waiting for the next play store update to trigger it. Not certified is an issue. It may be that when you installed 10 the play store version was already at that one. Tap on the version number, and that will check to see if what you have is the latest and if not queue it up for change. When it does change, you might have to go through the steps again of hide, clear cache and data and remove updates to get it to trigger. I have been through this a bunch of times including finally getting it to work the other day when the update finally pushed.
jbarcus81 - Unfortunately it is something beyond the BL unlock since that is masked my every custom kernel and it remains an issue. It appears to be related to the device, the OS and the BL state at least. I have wondered out loud if Google tracks the BL status by individual device and records the status based on lock and unlock changes. Bottom line is that certified doesn't mean jack anymore. It is basically low hanging fruit while things like GPay and Netflix are looking well past that.
Just wait a few days and play store will update the app.
Like u guys said, everything is work now! Thanks ?

General New Play System Update

Just had a new Play System Update 55mb. I'm now on Nov 1 instead of the August 1 after the last update.

Still on September. Won't find any update.
There is no way to force/sideload this, right?

Thanks for the heads up.
I have been checking a couple of times per week to update to the November patch, but I hadn't checked since Wednesday last week; I didn't realize the update was there until I saw your post
I went from Nov. 5 to Nov. 1
I got that update yesterday. My phone rebooted after it downloaded. Did the reboot happen to anyone else.

I thought the phone had rebooted yesterday but wasn't sure. This explains it.
I am on Nov 5.
But Google needs to fix bugs, not just security updates. Like the camera overprocessing, the screwy 4x zoom which is not used at times when chosen by the user, the sub-optimum battery, and the constant requests for PIN instead of FPS, or unlocking with a trusted device.

When the phone fails to read your Fingerprint (something along the lines of three or four times in a row), it automatically blocks/deactivates the FPS, until you unlock it with your TO KNOW security measure (in your case PIN).
I had it happen to me a couple of times over the course of this month, and it was a tad too annoying to shrug off. I definitely miss my old P4 Faceunlock, never bothered me (except when I wore masks, lel).
I had it as well ... was on Nov 1, update, reboot and still on Nov 1 ...
Note there are two things: (a) security update (Nov 5 in my case) and (b) Play-systemupdate (Nov 1 in my case).
See screenshot.
When I manually checked for a Play System update just now, it told me my update was over 600 MB! Sorry, no screenshot.

Yes, I have the Unlocked (and rooted) 512 GB model, using on AT&T. Maybe it hadn't checked for any Play System updates since I rooted - since I waited to root (and disable verity and verification, and flash the stock firmware and wipe) until just a week and a half ago (I think).
I confirm it now says November 1. Thank goodness Settings has search and I'm also glad it remembers my last several searches in settings, even after a reboot.

Excellent, because judging by some of the posts here that's not quite universal.
In case anyone is still confused:

any noticeable changes? I'm asked to reboot... but I rather not until the next system update

Question No updates in playstore

Anyone else having issues with apps not updating in the play store? If so, any fixes? I'm on P6P and latest update.
I have not had the issue. I happened to manually check yesterday and the Play Store was already in the process of updating three apps that needed it. Have you tried rebooting?
I have the same issue. I usually force close and clear cache for the Play Store and then updates appear.
I feel like having less updates than usual but I'm thinking it can be related with the holidays. Probably developer teams are reduced due holidays and the remaining ones don't want to be working extra hours on hotfixes hahaha

Do you refer to
a) you get no updates in general (right now)?
b) you get updates shown as available, but the system does not successfully automatically update them without your input?
A. That's because we just came out of christmas holidays. Most firms have closed/are running on low staff. There are no updates, because there are no updates.
B. That's a "common" problem and in 96% of the cases it's caused by singular apps being marked as "no auto update" - to check this, you have to go into
-> Open Play Store
-> Click on your profile (upper right corner, your GProfile icon)
-> Manage Apps & device
-> Manage
-> Click on any app
-> Click on three dots (upper right corner)
-> Check if "Enable auto update" is checked
For some stupid reason, backups can mess this up - and sometimes if even only 1 (!) app has been flagged as "no auto update", it will halt the entire update process.
And no, there is no easy way to streamline all apps as "auto update" - you will have to MANUALLY go through every app in that menu to find the culprit.
One of the things Google made worse over the years...

From Android 4 i have not been able to auto update from play store(can't remember what it was called back then) and today still not able to.
there were so many updates in December (on the play store). I know because I check daily, and there was a ton. let the devs rest for a few weeks.
It's not about vacations etc. I just did a force close and clear cache one minute ago and boom....3 updates appeared.
"Notify when updates are available for apps " is the issue for me. I don't use auto update for apps, never have on any phone.

Of the three profiles on my up-to-date Pixel 4 XL, the third one stopped getting updates to the installed apps in that profile, i.e. any update notifications or manual check for updates in the Play Store failed to pick up updates to most or or all of the apps unique to that profile.
I can't tell when this behaviour started, but it must have been some weeks ago. Going each app in the Play Store showed updates and noted that I was running a beta version (which was correct), but to update required updating to a non-beta then (re)joining the beta. Subsequently these apps have received updates via notification and check for updates in the Play Store.
