solution

error 911:
app could not be downloaded due to an error 911
solution:
Method 1: Clear the google play store data
method 2: If you are using a wifi connection that requires a webpage login, then your authentication has probably expired. Log in to the apn again via your android browser. Open google play store and run the app update again . If that didn’t work the problem is with the wifi network itself.
Method 3: Simply switch to another wifi network and run the update. The error 911 should disappear for the new wifi network.
Method 4: Use your mobile network data services instead of wifi. Turn wifi off and then turn your data on and now open your google play store and download/update your apps or games. However, this method is only suited for apps and games that are small sized. For larger updates you should use your wifi network to save data charge.

One slight correction on recovery mode: To access it on Samsung devices is power + vol up + home (or it is on the Galaxy S4). Vol-down is download mode.
my error it is show (unknown error during application installation."-24")
what does it mean?
can you help me?
this is really useful, i usually get problems downloading updates whenever i restore paid apps from titanium backup
FYI: I just signed up to become a beta tester of an app. Immediately after hitting "join beta" or whatever, I went to the Google Play Store (on a browser) and clicked "install" and selected my device. Back on my phone, I received an error 940. I'm guessing it has something to do with not being in the testing team (it usually takes a while for the system to update).

Null ROM on Galaxy gear and Google trouble...
Great work mohamedrashad!
Maybe you can help me with my problem?
I rooted my Galaxy Gear and installed the NullRom. Great success! But I immediately noticed two things:
1. I cannot add accounts under "Settings -> Accounts". When I click the "Add Account" it just flashes once and nothing happens.
2. I cannot launch Google Play. When I try, either directly on the icon or from the Shell menu, it opens briefly but then closes immediately again without any error message. I have tried several different versions of the Google vending apk, without any luck.
I believe there is a relation between the two problems, but I do not know where to look. On the Forum, I have read about other who also has had my #2 problem, and solved it by adjusting the MTD Partition. However, I have no idea how to do that, nor do I understand why that should help. "Out of memory" should not be an issue on a freshly flashed nullROM device?
Please help.

I'm using Motorola Moto G and already rooted. I cannot find andriod/data/com.application-address.
It is same like other andriods?
Thanks.
The OP, and all other posts that lack clarity, should be edited to change where it says "Google Services" to say 'Google Play Services".
This is to avoid users clearing their GSF (I won't say the full name here to avoid confusing learner drivers) as clearing GSF will lead to all sorts of issues with regards to authorisation tokens, GCM push messages etc as Google's servers will think you have done a factory reset and will just cause many of the problems you are trying to cure.
Nice guide all the same.

Sorry for inconvenience!
Previously I mention "internal storage of your android/data/com.application-address" that's mean root/data/data/app name (the app shows errors during installation).
For example you have this error when you try to install ES File Explorer which package name is "com.estrongs.android.pop". Now you need to find the folder which is "com.estrongs.android.pop" on your root directory. For that the location should be "root/data/data/com.estrongs.android.pop" you need to go "root/data/data/" location and delete the folder "com.estrongs.android.pop".
And also you can use DU Speed Booster (Cleaner) or Clean Master to clean this kind of junk files or folders.
Thanks.

Hi all,
I updated my OPO to CM12 and the google play services can't be updated leading to the notorius battery drain plus several other issues.
It's all stock, less than 1 month old unit, what can I do?
The previous version, CM11 was great, the current YNG1TAS17L is creating only problems.

Head into settings > apps > google play services > clear data.
After that head down to apkmirror.com and download Google Play Services and manually update the app.
This should fix the systemupdate service bug on the older version of Google Play Services

Thanks for your message!
I can't access google play app crashes and I can't upgrade the app via the google play webpage.
I downloaded the latest version of the google play services (it appears to be the same version I already have installed) but I can't clear the data of that app (there is no clear data button just clear cache).
In order to install the apk, all I have to do is select it with a file explorer app (provided I have set the option of allowing the install of non google play apps?

In order to install the apk, all I have to do is select it with a file explorer app (provided I have set the option of allowing the install of non google play apps?
Thanks,
Marc
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
If Google Play FC, head into settings > apps > Google Play > click clear data and force close
To clear data of Google Play Services, head into settings > apps > Google Play Services > (I think is) manage storage and it'll bring you into Google Play Services app, scroll to the bottom and click clear data. After that, force stop and uninstall any updates you may have for the app.
To manually update/install an app, use a file manager and head into the directory where you downloaded the app and just click on it and package installer will do the job it needs to do
hi all,
**EDIT** 20/10/15
So I wiped my phone again - cache and system. Flashed "cm-12-20150901-SNAPSHOT-YNG4NAO253-bacon" and "gapps-lp-20141212-signed" annnnnd it all works!
I still don't understand the cause of any of my troubles and I haven't tried doing this with CM 12.1 because stagefright is still an issue?
I cannot get Google Play services to function properly on my OnePlus one- have tried Factory resets, installing from a backup, Stock, CWM and TWRP recoveries. installing from apk hosting sites. clearing cache and all data in settings>apps>google blah blah, hoping someone can help me.
- several months ago i flashed TWRP as my new recovery and then flashed SuperSU and I have enjoyed this set up ever since as I love using the app AllStream which requires root access.
- after putting off updating my phone since doing this, I finally decided to update the other day...
- I downloaded the CM12.1 .zip , moved it onto my phone, booted it into recovery and flashed the bastard (figured everything was going smoothly at this point).
- When my phone booted up I figured I would download the Google Play store from the built in browser, and then download all my apps through that, BUT when I logged into my google account the play store said all my apps were already installed???
I downloaded some apps from some apk hosting websites and installed them (allstream,facebook,snapchat and a couple others) they all worked fine.
When I downloaded Google Play services Version: 8.2.99 (8299240) for Android 5.0+ (Lollipop, API 21) from apkmirror.com it installed and then gave me the error "unfortunately google play services has stopped"
every 3 seconds or so.
I have tried flashing Stock, CWM, Philz and TWRP recoveries, doing a factory reset and then flashing the CM12.1.zip. get the error in all cases.
I have tried clearing cache and all app data in phone settings>apps>google PS>clear cache/delete data
I have not had Privacy Guard running ever (some forums have suggested this can cause issues).
**EDIT** 19/10/15
I've realized since posting that I have had Privacy Guard running (i had thought it was a separate app).
I have since experimented with different settings within Privacy guard such as turning the "wake up" and "keep awake" options on or off - no success
No idea what to do now, have I done something obvious? What else can I try? What other information should I provide to help diagnosis?
I have ever problem with download apps because my phone is not available Google play store. However, I found solution to this: way to download Google play again. Perhaps, some of you will see it useful.
If you have available Google play, you can update the latest version. Check your version: Google play=> setting, the build number is your current version.
Next, choose a trusted source of apk files for download Google play store APK (choilieng.com). Remember that if you download poor quality apk, they may have tampered with the apk which is bad news. (Note: download on devices or pc and transfer apk to space you‘ll remember)
Setting security to your app: Enable unknown sourced in the settings to install an apk. If disables, your system will prevent users from installing apps from anywhere aside from Google play store: Enter device setting=> security=>unknown sources => ok
Install the Google play store by using file manager: open file browser, navigate to place you put Google play store apk, click on it => click package Installer=> install.
Finally, keep yourself safe by going back and turn unknown sources off: setting=> security settings, privacy settings or application settings=>uncheck the box.
That is all. If you haven’t done this successful, it is better for you to download apk files and install apps like the step 2. Even if your devices are not available Google play or not, you can still download apk files for many installing apps in the future with more android devices.
Hello.
Quite a few days ago I tried integrating update system apps into rom with Titanium Backup but those apps disappear:
-google play store
-android system webview
-system update
-smart suite
-talkback
I tried restoring a backup of them with titanium backup, but when I clicked to restore it just didn't do anything (it staied at 0% for ever).
At that point the phone was not connected to my google account anymore and I couldn't even add it going to Settings/Account.
Tried rebooting phone but nothing changed.
So I downloaded Google Play Store 7.2.13.J-all [0] [PR] 138561921 apk file and also Android System Webview (55.0.2883.91 (288309100) arm) apk file and moved them into system/app.
With them I could connect my phone to my google account, but opening the play store I couldn't update my apps or download a new one (play store crashed everytime I tried and this is what I've found in the log: java.lang.SecurityException: Invalid value for is_public_api: null).
I've had a factory reset but I'm still facing the same issue.
I've tried Force stopping Play Store and Clearing data and done the same for Google Service Framework and Download Manager and installed a new version of Google Play Store (7.3.07.K-all [0] [PR] 139935798) but nothing changed.
So this is what I have now (on android 5.0.2, rooted, stock rom):
Android System Webview 55.0.2883.91
Google Play Service 9.6.83 (238-133155058)
Google Play Store 7.3.07.K-all [0] [PR] 139935798
Google Service Framework 5.0.1-1602158
One strange thing I've found is that on Settings/Apps/All I found two Android System Webview:
-one version 37 (eng.android-bld-arm64) (with a world icon)
-and the one 55.0.2883.91 (288309100) arm I've downloaded (with a gear icon)
Is it correct having them both?
By the way, I've tried disactivating that version 37 (eng.android-bld-arm64) (with a world icon) but nothing changes.
How can I solve it? If the way is reflashing the gapps package via recovery, can someone give it to me or tell me where I can find it?
Thanks!
Found this https://www.xda-developers.com/download-google-apps-gapps/ and flashed gapps got from there and play store seems to work properly now.
