[Q] Device not showing up in google play store - Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So, after installation of the CM10 nightlies, i logged in with my google account. Thing is, from my PC i cannot see my device in the list to install apps from the play.google.com site. i see my two droid phones from Verizon. Just not my asus tablet. is this due to me using custom firmware/rom on it?

I'm having this problem now. I was running CM10.1 and I have now backed down to CM10 and my device does not show up in the web play store to download apps. I'm downloading apps just fine on the phone itself.

This happens to me whenever I flash or manually update a ROM. After accessing the Play store from the device itself, it will show back up in a while.

Calm down. Something from Verizon Xoom is used in the framework for the custom rom, so as far as the market sees we all have Verizon Xooms. I think there may be a fix for this if it is causing you problems, or you could just revert back to stock or just a custom kernel which may not do the same thing. But no, you have not been hacked.

Need help with ICS...play/market won't open

I can't get the play/market to load or open. Additionally if I access via the web and try to download rom manager etc it says it's already on my device.....which I can't find. How can I get the play/market to load and open? I've tried multiple older version. Here are my specifics:
Xoom wifi only (US)
Android Version 4.0.3
Kernel Version 2.6.39.4 Tiamat
Mod Version 1.4.0-XOOM (WiFi)
Build Number IML 77
Please help....my tablet is pretty much only an internet browser at the moment.
another way around your problem
as far as play from google since you have browser you can go directly to market and try reinstalling if from your browser on your tablet. try loading from your browser and if that don't work there are other methods if you search through xda you can find google apps folder and load them on to your sd card and load from there I have learned that it is near imposible to ruin these tablets. hope this helps

I tried this, I still can't load Google play. Ever since acknowledging the change from Google market to play, I've not been able to load my apps page. funny thing is, it will update my apps, though page/app will not load. When I try to access it via the web, it won't load my apps page. Even though I'm logged in, it asks me to log in again, but won't allow me to log in..a script comes up to "touch/click" login, and it does nothing..using dolphin browser HD, I'll try another browser, but think it will get same results. Anyway, I've got a rooted 4.0.4 ICS Xoom.

This has happened to me last week. Basically you get your apps updated because you have enabled market apps auto update. Your issue is with market unable to load or open and sometimes with connection error. Right? Try first rebooting your router and your device.
If so, you have 2 options here only.
First, is your device rooted?
Option 1: create another gmail account and then try to add another google account on your device with the newly created one from settings / accounts and sync. If successful, before going to google play, open youtube app and login with your new account. If ok. Login with old account. Then reboot. Then go to market and open your new account. If ok, login to market using old account. And check. If ok, done. If not, option 2 is the only solution.
Option2: backup your stuff. And fully wipe factory reset your device.

You can also just delete your current Google acct and then re-add it. This works with some of the Google apps errors.
not working
well..I tried option 1. and also to remove my Google accounts then re add them. still doesn't work. I just re flashed 4.04 over 4.03, so I don't want to do a data wipe again, since it was happening before I flashed it last time as well. It seems I can get to Google play from a browser, but when I try to get to my apps from there, it will also not connect. I'm about to just put a mod on like tiamat...dunno yet
now did the wipe, still no work, then loaded EOS ROM, still not working. I can only guess I need to use another gmail account all together
I have the same problem on time with google applications.
Due to differents flash of differents ROM and Google applications
Flash the tablette with the GAPP signe:
http://goo.im/gapps
reboot and no problems
This is getting annoying...
I have done every suggestion here. wiping data, even trying EOS builds and cyanogen mod, clear cache, wipe cache, use another Google account ( I have 2). Google play app will not open. When I go there from my PC, it says app will be installed, whatever the app may be, it is not getting installed to the Xoom, even though I'm logged in. AT first, Google Play would not open, but apps would install on the Xoom when I had auto update enabled..still Google play will not play nice.
I had same issue like you. Unfortunately, the only solution to me was to factory reset my xoom. Flash rom and gapps again.
Be4 that, try rebooting your router...

gmail not signed properly

Hello guys, I have just flashed a new ROM (UCALC4 sky ICS - seanscreamz). I am getting an error with gmail because when the ROM flashes, he has it inverted colorwise, and gives us the revert. I am not familiar with the android signing process, but I can no longer update gmail via the google play store for this reason. gmail does not show up in the installed applications list, only in the running processes and I have no way to delete it. I was wondering if anyone knew where it is located so that I can delete it and grab the fresh one from the play store.

Is it possible to install Play Store on a non approved phone

I have a phone, Thl W1 ICS that does not have Play Store installed. Is it possible to install Play Store. I have been trying for a week and the closest I can get is a Server Error screen. If it's not possible lesson learnt, if it can be done could someone tell me how. This is my first Android device so knowledge is limited. Thanks either way Mike
Yes, but you will have to modify your build.prop so it identifies as a supported android device. Find a supported/official android device that has the closest spec to your phone. Also, you will need the google framework (you might as well just flash the ICS gapps from CM, they will work on AOSP roms also)
Yeah, just search the forums. I believe the thread on how to do this is in the Devlopment forums.
Would like to give flashing gapps a try but every post I've read requires Clockwordmod but without play store I am unable to get it as every download site refers back to play store

Many apps dont seem to care as my HP Touchpad shows up with the name cm_tenderloin on Google Play since its unofficial. Its only some games that flag as incompatible. I imagine most other apps just care about Android OS version and processor instruction set (ARM11, ARMv7).

You can try alternative android market's like 1mobile market that might help you find something to help you install the play store

Play store crashing

Is anyone else experiencing random play store crashes when updating applications on the note 10.1
Running the stock jb rom, rooted.
Sent from my GT-N8010 using xda app-developers app
It happened once earlier today when I was doing some manual updates. Running latest update of JB stock.

Its note your device its google.
I tried to update 3 Samsung based apps on Google and download speed was terrible.
I stopped the down load on the play store and then stared the updates on the Samsung app store and the download took only a few seconds, it was speed that Google previously had.
The issue is still happening at the time of this post, it is becoming very irritating.
Does anyone know how we can flood Google with complaints or has anyone complained and got an official reply?

Also noticed that, but for me the bigger issue is the play store crashing nearly every time I go to manually update my applications

Today my download speeds seem to be back to normal so hopefully your problems will also be over.

No problem ever, but no root, or anyother downgrade.

Me too...totally stock GT-N8013 running 4.1.2, not rooted.
Yup. Every once in a while I'll try to manually update my apps and the Play Store will force close on me. It's happened 3 times already just this morning. I have the N8013 that's running on stock JB + root.

I'm not rooted but ......... Have you tried to install the new playstore apk that is out there to see if it helps?
You may have to do a factory reset to fix it.
Good luck.

Hi there,
If anyone still encountering FC/not dowloading apps for Playstore or market, it might also be the cause of new partition or something like that, you can try this another option freely other than fixing permission of vending.apk on /system/app/..
This might help you guys .
1. check if cache folder has "download" folder inside it, if it no download folder then create one inside /cache, e.g. mkdir /cache/download.
2. then chmod the /cache folder to 777, also make sure the com.android.vending folder is present inside /data/data/ folder.
3. You can achive it through shell terminal.
Hope this helps you guys fix the FC(Force close or not downloading apps on playstore or market).
Thanks
~imon
