I can't download anything from the play market I get 491 error for 2 days now - HTC Sensation

I had this error before but the thing I did to fix it isint working now. I had to clear the proxy IP address before ans that worked but I can't find how to do it since the interface of ics is different so the instructions on how to do it don't work. Pls help. I havent been able to download or update any apps for 2 days now. Usually this problem passes in 24 hours.

How do you go about deleting your account? Do you completely delete the gmail account or just the play application?

By deleting your account from the play store, you have to go to menu-settings-apps-all apps-play store
There just clear the data and reboot the phone. When the phone comes back up, sign into your account again.
On a separate note, please take a look at "your devices" in the google play and music. If you have too many devices in each app, the app will prevent any syncing and hang. This happens when you flash multiple roms and the build.props make the phone different in some way, and in turn, make you have different devices listed in your settings. Just a fyi.

Okay that worked I believe. Thanks so much.

if rooted & getting (491) error nothing will install
Press vol(down)+Pwr+home buttons same time time and rooted menu 1st option will be reboot. This will fix error (491) and now you will be able to install without ERROR 491. Worked for me Samsung Galaxy S3.

in htc devices holding together power button + volume down it takes you to the bootloader
no need for home button

Hi, does not work, because the problem is repeated after a few days. And I used this procedure for a while. I mention I have Note 2 (rooted) and the problem persists. And believe me it's annoying to delete your account every time the error occurred, then restart the phone, to sync your account again and so on. There must be another solution that will not put you to restart the phone every time.

error 491 cant download
I just had this issue. What i did to correct it was go into titanium backup found my original download app and restored it from a previous backup. Work perfect and no more error 491 when trying to download.

no luck
I've taken each step listed in this thread to no avail.. (I'm on a galaxy s3 rooted) at a loss still having this error code :crying:

fixed?

yes it is a common problem with some ROMs. you'll have to install Google maps directly using an apk file. search online or in this forum, you'll find Google map 4. 1. 1 apk
Hey, was your mytouch 3G orginally on 1.6 firmware before you rooted if so can you help me root mine [email protected]

*SOLVED* "Can't establish a reliable data connection to the server"

I've had issues with my phone where google services would eat up all my battery like 50%+.. To temp rid of this issue I would freeze google services, then when I wanted to check out the market I would have defrost services and update gmail info to use market. Now I get the issue stated above. Ive read of a youtube trick, but when I click "my channel" it says sign in and add account which sends me back to Add a Google Account.. Are my only options a hard reset?

Factory reset would be the way to go!
I backed up sd card and did a factory reset, when phone rebooted into recover it said E:format_volume: rfs format failed on /dev/block/stl11. I restarted phone and same issue, not able to connect with market, yet file explorer was able to update by itself? Id like to try the youtube fix, but all i could find was the 2.4.4 version online and when I try to log on it sends me to sync.. Any other options? maybe hard reset??
Hmm.....I'd say GR then go from there.
I performed a one-click, had to download SAMSUNG_USB_Driver_1.5.4.0 after many failed attempts installing stock.. Then flashed vb-fb-build 3 twice consecutively and everything is much smoother Ive been flashing rom after rom etc etc.. So a clean install was good to do finally. Thanks for the help! If anyone has any questions feel free.

I've had a similar problem with stock 4.1.2 on my skyrocket (via t-mobile) and the solution I found was to shut the phone down (power down completely, not just "restart"), and then turn the phone back on. It would then connect to my wifi network and download an update from google play then lapse into the same problem...but at least this way it actually downloads and installs (even if only one program per power cycle).
Any better solutions?
Edit: Just installed CM 10.2 nightly, and I have not yet ran into this problem, I am able to install multiple apps without re-starting so far.

When I power-cycled, after it booted up, without touching my phone, it would connect to my wifi and try to resume/complete any downloads from g-play. It would only successfully complete the first one, and it would still have the status/icon "downloading", but it also would complete it and install correctly too.
See if you start something in google play to download, let it try for a minute or so, then turn off your phone (shut down). Once it's shut down completely, wait 5-10 seconds, then power it back on again, leave it be for a few minutes, and see if it finished the download. I have mobile data almost always shut off, so that might be part of it as well.
Remove your gmail account from the phone, reboot and add it back.
To do this:
Go to settings, accounts, click on (your [email protected]) right where it says sync on/off click on your email and hit the menu tab on the phone and hit remove account.
This has worked for me in the past.

[Q] play store app update updates one or two then stops

Hello guys,
Very frequently when there are several apps to update on play store, nothing happens and I have to stop then start the update all process again. Then it updates two or so, then nothing again and I have to stop and press update all again...
Anyone know what's going on?
Im on Stock, rooted 4.4.2.
Cheers
Mark.
I too have this problem, although it happened before upgrading to 4.2.2 as well.
Reboot your device, fixed for me.

I will try next time I'm updating... but my phone has been rebooted a few times since 4.4.2, so it's not like it has just been set up. Also the issue was also there with 4.4.1 and maybe even 4.4.0
cheers
Mark.

Hi
I don't see a way to "unlink" my google account. I have 3 on my phone, and the only options in phone settings is to deselect sync (tick box) for specific items or to remove the account.
what do you mean?
tx
I have had the issue where I hit update all and then I don't hit the accept new changes that the application is requesting. It doesn't seem to show unless you stop and restart the download.

I had these error a couple of months ago, it appeared without any apparent cause. I managed to fix it uninstalling all the Play Store updates (rolling back to the stock version) and wiping app cache & data. After this, rebooted and updated the Play Store again and the error never came back.
Hope it helps
Just to let you guys know that I returned the phone to GiffGaff and it was accepted for replacement (they had to, since it was still under the first 14 days). I already have the new phone and no problems so far.
