Anyone getting market download errors (495) when trying to update?

I have no success updating my apps, I get an error 495 for the updates. I have cleared the cache, and still persists. Any ideas?

Having this issue as well after updating to the new Google Play app. Although, I'm unsure of whether it's the apps fault or the fact that I got a new modem. Will be testing with another wi-fi connection today.

Maybe synchronization with your Google account? You could try to go to settings and synch your account or remove it and re-add it. Things like that. If you did everything you could with the app then the account may just be acting up.
I've noticed the Market/Play will tell me an update is available when it's not and randomly the tablet will tell me to log into Google account with no loss on WiFi connectivity. I usually reboot to solve that. Good luck.

are you rooted? i have the same problem when updating apps. it justs hangs there.

problem fixed at last!!!
I finally managed to solve the problem. Just follow these steps, but bear in mind that i'm using a custom ROM so it might be a little different with you. Go to Settings > Wireless and network > Mobile networks > Access Point Names (or APN). Now select the APN that u are using. (I chose MTN Data since i'm MTN. Now go to "Proxy". There should be a number in there, delete everything that's in there and leave that field blank. Go to "Port" and clear everything as well. It worked for me.hope it works for u too. Let me know.

Yeee Peeeee!!!

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

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.

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?

Did you find any solution for this? Thanks for your answer!

*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.

Problem with my phone syncing with google

Every rom I've flashed has never synced with the play store to reinstall my apps. I have no idea why. My old phone (gnex) almost always reinstalled all my apps. I don't know if it is something I'm doing wrong, or what. I've let my phone do it's thing for up to an hour after a flash, still nothing. If anyone has any idea of why this is happening please let me know. Thanks

I never liked google restoring apps, was always hit and miss too for me. I made a aroma installer with all the apps I use and just use that to reinstall but before that I used this and just backed up all my apps to my sd card. I would then just reinstall that app (backed it up too) and just went thru and checked all the apps I wanted to reinstall.

This is for Q & A
Have you checked that the correct Google account in the play store settings is checked? When select My Apps, does it show your previous installed apps? Is auto update checked? What ROM are you currently running?
PM me if u haven't figured it out. I hope u have you tried q&a? Move there

Moved to Q and A

Aroma installer? How can you uuse that if it's not part of the rom? I'm interested in that method if you have time to explain it to me. Thanks. Hopefully i'll here back from you..

Yes, it's setup on the right account. Thanks for the help

[Q] Infuse ICS

Sorry if this is a repeat but I can't seem to find a similar problem. After staying on froyo for 2 years my phone started to slow down and give random application errors. I decided to try a new rom for the first time. I tried installing clockworkmod recovery and almost bricked my phone. A flash with gingerbread using odin got a working os on my infuse again. This came with red recovery already installed. For 2 weeks I used this rom and found that my dataconnection was super slow, random app errors and almost no wifi reception drove me to try something else. I flashed gingerbread bootloaders to get rid of the rainbow recovery(literally could not see a thing in recovery) and factory reset, cleared cache and flashed CWM 9 for infuse this post. This rom is running fast, data and wifi are great but there is a serious error. When I make a call, after selecting the number to call the screen goes black and unresponsive. No amount of button pushing will bring it back. Also you can see that the IR light on the front of the phone next to the phone turns on. The call is made and when the recipeint hangs up the phone will come back. If there is no cell signal this does not happen, the call screen normally appears and you can cancel the call. I have cleared cache, wiped data and dalvik cache, then reflashed this rom and the problem persists. I also downloaded a 3rd party dialer which displays the same symtoms. Is there a way to fix this? Is there a better rom to use? Any suggested workarounds would be nice. I would just like to get my phone back to a stable working os as I use it for android development. Some things specific to my situation: I live in Poland now. My phone is unlocked from ATT&T to work on european networks. This was working fine on froyo. I would post this on the developer thread but I don't have permission to do so yet. Thanks in advanced for any help/suggestions.

Go to delopment section and find cm10.1 by scott hart and odin back to stock with root/cmw follow instruction exactly the way the are coming from stock and should be good to go. And install GB bootloaders it will take care of not seeing recovery clearly and u can find how tos in stickies in delopment(I think) but do or research before u ask a lot of question and post bug. Its a good idea to read last 3-10 pages on a tom or going to install to know if there are any major issues or bugs.
This is just advise I have done what I telling and have not problems but i am not responsible if u brick ur phone

Thanks for the help!! How is JB running on your infuse? GB boot loader was installed before CWM 9. Recover is working fine now. As far as I can tell no one else is having this problem with the dialer like me.

Thanks for the help. I did try a different dialer which I downloaded from the market, but it had the same problems. I have already moved on to Jelly Bean and so far everything is working great. One problem that I still have is my Titanium Backup of my contacts wont work. This happened in ICS as well. Titanium says it works and suggests a reboot. After rebooting still no contacts. Unfortunately I didn't have these contacts synced with my Google account. Any ideas on how to extract the contact information from titanium and import it to the contacts app? I know the backup is good, I was able to use it when I updated to Ginger Bread.

I've got an idea, I think my problem is because I didn't make a fresh backup after I flashed ginger bread. I think the 'contacts' app must have changed database formats between froyo and ICS. If I were able to take that backup file and load it into an AVD, then restore my contacts and export them to my gmail account I think I could recover them on my phone without reflashing GB to do a fresh/compatible backup. Do you think it's possible or would most likely fail. I've never tried to bring files into an AVD but I do know that I have internet connectivity while debugging apps. It seems possible that I should be able to send files to the AVD as well.

If u go back to froyo u can use the free 30day trial of mybackup and back up the contacts. Then restore it on ICS or JB
