Hello,
I am having a problem with Play Store (Market) from 3-4 days. When i click on the Google Play icon, it gives me 'Server Error - Retry'. Upon doing some search here and there, i found out that i am not the one having this problem and some people already have fixed it themselves by using Market Enabler App.
So here is the real deal. When i fake a provider using the market enabler app, and then try to open the Play Store, i can access the store !! But when i try to download anything, It Says "This Item Cannot Be installed in your country - Ok"
I have tried every possible solution and to check how legitimate this error is, i even tried apps from Indian developers.. but still no luck.
can someone help me fixing this problem ??
This problem is happening to all my friends with HTC (desire hd, evo3d, etc), i myself have SGS2 and its just fine. Its really terrible, wtf is google doing
yea i just ran into this problem on evo3d
This problem is not happening with me.

Hi,
Did you try to kill the market/play store app, clear cache and data, and then go and clear Download Manager cache and data, restart phone and try again?
I had the same problem and only this in that sequence helped me. Everything works great for me since then.
I have tried everything !! nothing seems to work !!! I am tired of this error. i'll wait for it to be fix if it is a server error in real. I'll give my feedback in 2 days n tell you if it resolved for me.

Use Market Unlocker apk
Change your Country to United States Of America!
You WONT get free paid apps or anything.
It just changes the Market's Server.
Try it and it should work for you!

It should have worked but i have already fixed the problem. Thanks for the suggestion though my friend
Here is what i did -
1. Wipe Data and Factory Reset. It removed all the accounts and play store data along with all the apps.
2. Added alternative google account. The account that was not intended to use with this phone.
3. Installed market enabler (from apk) and then fake a provider from US (T-Mobile) and DID NOT click on "Save Current Settings" and closed the app. This got me the access to store but still "this item cannot be installed in your country" error.
4. Added the account i intend to use with this phone.
5. Opened up Play Store > Menu > Accounts and then selected the account i added later. This solved the downloading error and everything was working fine.
However, there was still a major problem, the currency was not in rupees and i might not have been able to purchase any app from the store. I simply Opened the Market Enabler App and Clicked on Restore Settings (Thats why i didn't click on save current settings) and the currency and my provider went back to original.
Anyways, thanks to all who suggested me solution for my problem

Since today I'm getting an error (406) when trying to download an app in the play store. Is there a fix for this or does anyone have any idea how to solve this.
Try creating a new google account on your phone with new details and select it in the play store and see if you can download anythang
You could try clearing the cache and data of your market, or you could try removing your googleaccount from your phone and readd it after this.
Does it only occur for one special app?
IMHO the Web server returns a header containing the 406 error code, when detecting that the data it wants to return is not acceptable to the client.
Clearing the cache should solve the problem, if not I found the following:
There was a similar issue in Germany last year (older version of market, but maybe it'll help).
Google-Support described it as follows (translated!):
This error can occur, if you
- Delete the Google account, with which you have logged in your Android phone,
- Reset the phone to factory settings
- You register a new account in your Google Android phone.
This problem does not occur for all users. We investigate the problem and report back to you as soon as we have more information.
Community solution was (sounds funny, but...): starting youtube app --> logging in with your credentials (if logged in, resign and ignore possible error message), reboot (didn't work for all users).
Google solution: Open a ticket with them
In trying to troubleshoot this error myself, I've noticed I get the error when using Wifi for the connection, but everything works fine for using the 3G coverage.
Where I'm at there isn't a 4G connection, but I picked up a few days ago the new HTC Rezound through Verizon. I went to download Angry Birds Space and saw the error. I verified it was for all apps when I tried to download a different game. As mentioned above, the 3G connection works, but Wifi doesn't.
I do have the workaround but would like to figure out why the Wifi isn't working on Google Play. I can surf, use splashtop, and browse Google Play, it's just when I want to install and download that I run into this problem.
I tried clearing out the Google Play cache and that didn't work.
Any other suggestions?

I found some information about an optional Apache module called mod_security. This is a module that acts as an Apache firewall – it blocks a lot of the usual routes that we use to access i.e. websites (this module sends back an error code 406 if you're IP is not allowed to view or download the content you requested).
That could confirm Google's statement regarding opening a ticket with them.
But maybe we're delving into it to much now (hopefully grammatically correct).
There are several ways to limit the sources of the error ourselfs.
1. Can you download the games mentioned above through another wlan?
2. If not, it's time for debugging.
- Which radio, ROM version do you use?
- Did the download work before? (If yes, updated your ROM? Changed
anything else?)
- You can check your requests to Google Play and the according answers
with tcpdump or Wireshark (http://www.kandroid.org/online-pdk/guide/tcpdump.html or http://gadgetcat.wordpress.com/2011/09/11/tcpdump-on-android/) (1. connection with 3G 2. connection with Wifi)
Which ROM do you both use?
Funny enough, I think it is the Wifi we're allowed to join at our work that is causing the issue.. I went home, connected to my Wifi at home and was able to download just fine. There's a loose firewall of sorts here, that the network guy explained to me, that could potentially be putting the block on downloading from google play (although I can use Splashtop, surf via browser over Wifi, etc).
I guess it makes sense although others on other droid phones are able to download over the wifi just fine.
My phone - non-rooted HTC Rezound
Android 2.3.4
HTC Sense 3.5
Software number 1.02.606.6
Baseband 0.95.00.1017_24, 0.95.00.1013r
I had this problem. I disabled wifi, cleared play store data/cache, opened play store and let it do its thing while on data connection. After that's done, turn on wifi and works again.

same problem
Have you checked your firewall settings or tried to connect to another wifi? Does it also occur with a 3g connection?
This problem occurs when u have Package Installer or Package Access Helper frozen or deleted. Its a system app and u shouldn do it if you want to keep your access over Google Play store.
You can try to clear cache and data for Google Play store and Google Services Framework and after that restart the device.
This should do the trick, at least for a while...

Thank you!
clearing cache and data solved for me.
I think after rooting and restoring it restored some bogus half downladed apps.

Sorry for bringing this thread back up but i am having the same error.
I cleared the data and cache on the Google play store and services and I still can't download any app from the play store what so ever.
I even uninstalled the play store and restored it by reinstalling a gapps package...but still nothing.
Do i need to reflash my ROM?
Any kind of suggestions will help me out.

maybe it's silly but did you try to sign out and then sign in again?
I just removed my google account and readded it. I also cleared Google Play and Play services and then rebooted (I also made sure it refreshed my account through Play).
Still getting the same error...

error 406
Hi Guys. I've rooted my HTC One x ,then did a unroot. Not sure what happened but cannot download from Google play Error 406. Can you kindly help. Thx
hello. hopefully posted in the right spot, but unsure if anyone has seen this issue... there was an update recently for the play store, so i did an upgrade, and now getting the nagging sign in error for gmail associated with this phone.
entering my pw does nothing. it just comes back almost instantly to reenter pw again.
i did a kill this to see what or where the message was coming from... what it killed was the google services framework, so its not a fake... but... wanted to see if anyone's seen this, and if there's a fix...
i'm on a droid 3 rooted, debloated, and that's all thats been done..
playstore is at 3.5.19 and gsframework is at 2.3.7
thanks.

your phone is rooted and cleaned (no bloatware) but how did you do that by flashing a custom rom or made by yourself
if made by yourself I suggest to delete playstore directly (use Root Explorer etc) and install from sdcard a new playstore you can find it by Google do not forget to activate "unknown sources" in menu/applications before to install new playstore form sdcard
another solution is to get stock rom and flash it then update playstore in this case all things should go if not there is a compatibility problem -last version of playstore is not compatible with your phone/OS

if that was the issue, all Droid 3's would have issues... or else all rooted Droid 3s would have issues... probably not it either..
**UPDATE**
This morning while browsing androidpolice, saw an app i wanted to try out (Google+ Analytics) ... so I tried to do it via the playstore on PC.. guess what? My Droid 3 was delisted from the account. How and why? I scanned the QR code that went directly to the Analytics app on PLaystore on my Droid 3, and installed successfully - it even lists Analytics on the PC view of the play store's "My Orders".
I was comparing the differences between my phone and my wife's Rezound, and I did notice one thing so far.. we both had the Droid Eris, and she had the Rezound now. Her Rezound listed verizon as the carrier, but on my account my Eris was oddly listed as verizon... and my Droid 3 not on the list at all!
Anyways, there's a link there for people who "Don't see your device?" question.. link is: http://support.google.com/googleplay/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=1146414 ...
it states they are merging the personal google account with the google app account which may cause issues...
Now, is anyone having this issue at all? Google notes that this falls under a few percentages of users only ;\
mmm i probably won't go that route yet.

this can be a solution for your problems nobody can tell you for sure how to do that
I do not have that phone in my hand to tell you more
if you have a nandroid backup there is no risk

after googling a few, and finding more info, it ended up being a sync issue between the google servers - since the phone was registered to an gmail account that was made prior to whatever is being merged at this time, it messed up the sync. the error is gone now, and my phone is now re-listed in the devices list in the play store settings tab.
yay.

A) In settings go to Account & Sync, click on your default google account, disable and re-enable mail calender contacts sync, allow it to complete the update. Open Play Store and try downloading a new app. Cheers if it is working fine....
Not Working ...try this,
B) Go to applications, manage applications, all applications, search and click on Google play store, click on clear data and again on clear cache. go back.
Search & click on Google Services Framework, again click on clear data.
Reboot Device
Now try again with Google Play. Cheers if it is working fine
Not Working....now I am getting 'cant establish a reliable data connection to the server error when opening google play.
C) Repeat all of Step B and reboot. It will work !
Still Not working ......I never had that problem beyond this.....sorry but I guess you need to consult experts or try doing a factory setting, configuring an alternate Google ID.
Hope it helps !

Delete Playstore from your settings/app folder. Wipe Delv,Cache ... Reflash your ROM, then your Gapps. (Google has to go through the account setup again) Google Play needs to reset you wallet/purchase authorization. If that does not fix the issue a CWM factory reset, will surely fix it.
on google ply it said to go to manage apps all app the go to google services framework and clear cash and data i am currently experiencing the same problem
and just found that page and this thread hope that helps
here is the page on google play click on "downloading installing and updating apps" then "error processing purchase on free apps"
http://support.google.com/googleplay/bin/static.py?hl=en&page=known_issues.cs&ki_topic=1319135
same problem
anyone have any luck? I havent wiped and flashed yet.
Thank you. I suddenly started experiencing the same problem and I followed the steps in post #2 and it worked. I didn't have to reflash my rom or anything drastic like that.
I just wanted to thank you. I'm running an Evo 3d, but I just installed a version of MIUI and this error starting randomly happening. I had to go through step c but the errors seems to be gone. Thanks! :good:

Option A Worked perfect on my Asus Transformer TF700T Thanks.
Option D
For those of you that like me tried all other options but nothing worked, here's another option which worked for me:
Reboot to your custom recovery, in Advanced (usually) select to Fix permissions.
Of course i did this after doing options A-C which left me with a Play store that refused to connect at all which looked like a permissions issue.
Solution
Solution:
Delete cache from all google products, google play, video, books etc.
Delete account connected to the play store.
Reboot
Add your gmail account
log into google play it will prompt you to log in.
Done.
If you have mutlitple google accounts you should delete them all. Then after reboot add only the one you want to use in play store.
Once play store is connected to the gmail account of your choice then add the other google accounts.

Hi all,
I am getting "rpc:s-3 error retrieving information from server" on every app when i try to download or update. I have tried clearing the data on play store, download manager, and google services and rebooting but it did not fix it. Has anyone found a fix for this?
I am on the stable release of 10.2 CM from Dec 2 and have the latest gapps.
Thanks
Anyone?
Try going Settings>Accounts>Google> Tap your account> Three dots in the upper right (or press menu button) "Remove Account" ... then readd your account .. then clear Play store cache and data and try it

Same here. I've had this issue for over 2 months now. Google keeps saying it is a "known issue" for some. I have tried absolutely everything possible. Everything. I get it on my GS4 and my Nexus 7. I can not download anything or update anything. This is becoming very very irritating.

I have tried that solution also. BUT!, About an hr ago it started notifying me that I had updates. Have not seen that in over 2 months. Opened up the play store, and it has mysteriously started working for me on both my devices! Woohoo! Hopefully Google has figured out what when wrong for users like myself and a lot of others and will start pushing out the sync fixes. :highfive:

Hi all,
U[CENTERn[/CENTER]
I am getting "rpc:s-3 error retrieving information from server" on every app when i try to download or update. I have tried clearing the data on play store, download manager, and google services and rebooting but it did not fix it. Has anyone found a fix for this?
I am on the stable release of 10.2 CM from Dec 2 and have the latest gapps.
Thanks

turn off you internet
go to settings > application > select Google play store and Google play service > clear cache
then turn on the internet .
fixed
I've tried every suggestion out there (including those in this thread) for fixing the RPC:S-3 error and I haven't had any success. All apps install or update successfully except Flipboard, Gmail, Google Play Books and YouTube - they always get the RPC:S-3 error. The only other thing I can remotely think of is the fact that pertinent system apps aren't up to date or their versions aren't fully compatible with each other: Google Play Store 4.4.21, Google Play services 4.0.34 (924341-36) and Google Services Framework 4.3-757479.
Could that be the culprit? If so, how do I fix it? If not, any other ideas?
P.S. - Galaxy S III with Android 4.3
SOLVED!!! Finally! Not sure what the fix was exactly (since I tinkered with just everything in this session) but I think it was removing ALL Google accounts (I had 7 total) and possibly combined with toggling Sync and the clear cache & data trick. Here's everything I did:
Updated Google Play services to 4.1.32 (978161-36)
Updated Play Store to 4.4.22
Turned off Sync
Removed all 7 Google accounts
Cleared cache AND data for Google Play services, Google Play Store and Google Services Framework (I know the Google engineer said not to, but F it!)
Restarted the phone
Cleared cache AND data again for the aforementioned apps/services (I'm paranoid/anal)
Restarted the phone again
Turned Sync back on
Re-added just ONE Google account (my primary one)
Cleared cache and data again (told ya!)
Restarted the phone again
All the apps that were giving me the RPC:S-3 error have successfully updated/installed automatically. What a F'ing experience!
Well, 'til the next RPC:S-3 (or RPC:S-5:AEC-0) fiasco...
This is what i did and it fixed the issue.
Remove google account (all of them)
Un-install updates and cache what not
re-boot device.
Re add the account and don't update or anything yet.
Let your device sit for about 5 mins.
Download a random app from app store( don't update any other app yet)
after it's done downloading different app now you can update your apps
This method worked for me. Try it
Hey all!
I have been reading about that 403 Play Store error that pops up every time you are trying to download an application but I didn't manage to find a solution yet. I didn't wanna also bump old threads that have written about this issue,because most of the stuff mentioned there I have already tried them...I am an owner of a Huawei Ascend Y300 and am trying to download apps from my home network wifi.
So here's what I have done..Since I first experienced it I tried to clear my play store cache in settings,forced stop/clear data in google service framework while all these were done under airplane mode just in case. I also tried to clear my google accounts,try entering alternatives google details (total of 3 accounts with my main one) and none of them managed to download any apps while i was logged in with it in play store. I have also checked my APN settings and my proxy server is at "Not Set". Also tried to clear search history in Play Store just in case again there's an issue. I read also in various threads/sites that this begins after you purchase a paid app from the store? I never bought something, I haven't even linked my card details with it. I wasn't able to download any app from my pc too as well. In the end I desperately proceeded for a factory data reset and I lost all remaining apps I had already installed and the error would would still be there saying hi to me every morning..
Any suggestions on that matter,cause I am reading various stuff,tried everything I read and I nothing so far.
Thanks in advance

Are you rooted? It sounds like your ROM maybe could have had a bad file. I'd re-download the ROM, check the md5 hash, install ROM and try from there. If all else fails, you could try installing Market Unlocker and changing from one market, then back to another.
I believe that the Freedom app can also cause errors like this, so if you have ever used that, this is also a possibility. If you have used Freedom, reinstall it, click start service, then stop it, then uninstall.
Force stop, Clear data and cache for :
-Google Play Store,
-Google Service Framework
-Download Manager
be sure that those services are not inactive!

No I am not rooted. I haven't tried rooting any phones I had although I was thinking doing that soon enough to my current one just to experiment myself with it. Should I root my phone and try troubleshooting that way? I don't know what doors open in front of me with this though and if I will solve anything, so any suggestions are welcome
