not able to update apps from play store

Hi all,
I've recently started to face problems while trying to update apps from play store. when I hit the update button the downloading bar comes up on the notifications bar and then nothing happens.. it stays like that forever.. I then have to "clear data" from download manager to remove it.
I've tried clearing the cache & data from download manager and play store but it didn't work.. removed my Google account from my phone then cleared cache and data then did a reboot and registered the account again and even that didn't work.. I also tried a lot of silly stuff... so after many failed attempts I've come looking for help from u guys..
if anybody has a solution to this then please share the same.. this one's getting into my nerve.. :banghead:
btw, I'm able to install new apps, just not able to update the existing ones..
please help..

If that still not working contact your provider (not root)
Change rom (root)

[Q] **HELP**Unfortunately gallery has stopped responding

I have a Galaxy S2 which was running resurrection remix 3.1.3 and I updated it to the newest version which is 4.0.4(ROM version) but since doing this I have an issue with the camera and cannot find an exact cause and was hoping someone could help.
What happens is that the camera app will open but the screen will be black, I can see the camera controls but the screen is black, and if I leave it or close the app the message appears about gallery not responding. I can replicate the issue quite easily, as long as the camera is listed in the recent apps list the fault will occur but will always run fine when I remove it from this list.
I have tried clearing the gallery and camera data/cache, i have also cleared dalvic and cache and also done a wipe data/reset via CWM as well as reflashing the ROM. The ROM has not be modified by me, it is as supplied by the ROM creator.
Does anyone know the cause of this? I am unable to ask this in the ROM forums as I am a new member.

Can nobody help with this query?

maybe this is the bug in custom rom...
you should try other camara/gallery apps like snap camara...it combines camara app and gallery app...and if you are advance user then you should change the default app...

I had the same problem

It doesn't happen in other ROMs so clearly it must be but was hoping to find a way to fix it, instead of working around it as the camera app otherwise works fine. I have never heard of snap camera, how does it compare to other camera apps?

Were you able to resolve the problem? If so, how?

Try removing wipe data of the gallery by using titanium backup.. may help..

Nexus 5 & whatsapp issue

Hi,
I recently got my Nexus 5 and tried to activate whatsapp in the device.
I'm able to install the app, but when I type my number and click "OK", I'm getting an error message saying that
"Unable to connect. Please check that you are connected to the internet and try again. Please reboot your phone if your connection problem persists"
I tried rebooting the device multiple times, uninstalled and installed the app and also tried installing the app from the whatapp site, but the issue still exists.
I tried sending the SMS to my own number thru Hangouts and i'm able to receive it successfully.
Please let me know if there is anything that I'm missing here. or let me know any other troubleshooting steps.
Thanks in Advance!

No worry mate..
do this.
Uninstall the whatsapp and install it from play store, DONT OPEN the app.
tether your friends data(internet)and then open the app and do the settings.
This happens due to bad signal or poor internet connection. I faced the same issue.
Press thanks if I helped you.

If he'd be on ART the app wouldn't even open and it would FC. So I suppose he is on dalvik.

I have tried ART & Dalvik as well,
In ART, I'm not even able to open the already installed whatsapp and update from Play as well is getting failed.
In Dalvik, I'm getting this problem.
Also, My data connection seems stable as I'm able to browse and update apps from Play store.
Lemme know if I'm missing any thing here.

Facing force closes with art and whatsapp. given its the only app broke after the switch, im falling in love with viber.I will not go back to dalvick, the phone with art seems so much smoother and fast!!! before making my contacts move torward whatsapp alternatives, I just wrote to whatsapp an email asking if a fix is about to come.

Whatsapp isn't broken anymore on ART. You have to uinstall it first and install it fresh from the store.

Yeah man I had that yesterday... Even the older versions of whatsapp (50) didn't install after I had read that they worked. I had to hard reset cause when I switched back to dalvik the install was still giving me problems.

This problem only occurs for whatsapp ? that's strange..

yep strange, have over 80 apps installed and whatsapp is the only one witg art issue
Sent from my Nexus 5 using xda app-developers app

It's because you turn on the developer option
The format is solution for your problem
اللهم صلِ على محمد و آل محمد

anyone want to use art and whatsapp, try purity rom. whatsapp works with art enabled, even all my apps that previously didn't work now working great. (md.emu, snes9x)

authentication done, but...
Now the whatsapp login issue is fixed on my Nexus 5,
I used my friends 3G as hotspot and was able to perform authentication.
But still(on 2G), I'm not able to send or receive any chats.
Any feasible solution for this?

It must be your carrier blocking it? Because it works fine on 2g here, I just checked.

Can u tell me how to send mp3 files or songs on watsapp through nexus5

not completely sure but do a factory reset,
and before doing so make a backup of your important data like contact etc.

Thanks fot your reply, but i'd tell u that i've just installed CM11 so i did factory reset and cache format and dalvik. After i installed the ROM and installed "whatsapp" for example i got this bug while using the camera to send photos, after taking the photo the screen goes off and freezes. Even in some other apps like "google camera" i got the same issue when i want to exit the app.
I think this ROM is not completely compatible with some apps and needs fixes.
I hope there is some fixing methods that can help me. Otherwise i will regret of installing a custom ROM.
thanks in advance.
