Try settings/applications and find play store and clear cache/data then reboot. If that dont work then try re installing play store

tried what you said sir, but still wont update some apps.

hmm,, have i seen some double posting here,
users are discouraged to do so- you know...
...anyway, have you flashed gapps from the fully samsung thread,
or are you trying a playstore that was in the rom ( without flashing gapps )...

Some time ago, android market was themed and patched against updating,
I'm very fond of transparency in the roms and apps, so, 've been using
transparent version ( and much earlier, smaller in size )...
Now however, everything has changed, and whether you like it or not,
playstore is been updating to a current version automatically- perhaps that'd be your chance to solve the issue..
Try some older release, in the worst case it'll get updated,
In some rom thread- in the OP ( but not quite sure now-which )
I've seen a solution for non working playstore...

This is frustrating, really.
Ok, I'll try to look for the old version of playstore.
Hope this works :crying:

I also came to know that the only working version of Instagram can't be used anymore. Let me say this clear: it's not our fault. That's the problem.
I'm sure the problem is gralloc.omap3.so, because Instagram doesn't crash with the one taken from the DDK 1.10 (you can't simply replace it) and it doesn't crash in our stock ROMs (DDK 1.7). It crashes in our CM10/CM10.1 ROMs (DDK 1.8) and the official ICS ROM/CM10/CM10.1 of the Optimus Black (DDK 1.8).
If you want it fixed, report the issue to Instagram, even if probably it's not their fault.

[Q] s7500 games crashing cm10.1

I recently installed thwisps cm10.1 for galaxy ace plus.
Everything is working fine except for games.
When I start a game I downloaded from the play store, the game shows a black screen and after a few seconds it crashes to my home screen. This is my only problem in this rom, but it's very frustrating.
I tested the games Hill Climb Racing and Raft Pirates.
They both crash on startup, they did work before I installed this rom.
Raft Pirates crashed after login, and since I logged in every startup.
Does someone know a fix? Or a setting I need to change?
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
Thx for the app but can we log into the acount or not ?
Thx for the reply

Hi,
We cannot log into google account if the Google Play Services are not installed on the device.

I just wanted to say that it doesn't work with play services. I'm not sure if that is intentional or a bug

No download section? which you can download the videos damn

thank you, it is very good.

I installed this on my car head unit, which has no google services, the normal youtube app wont work,
this one works , but the quality option only allow me to choose up to 360p, is there anyway to set it higher? the car unit capable play up to 1080p videos thru mx player
I've checked settings, the HD is enabled for both wifi and 3G, but still no HD options
a HD force enable version would be great, is it possible to make?
the car head unit android version is 4.1.1 by the way, I read somewhere that youtube app only allow higher quality option on version 4.4.2 or later, I wouldn't want to root and mod build.prop, it will be troublesome to fix the unit if something went wrong and bricked

Great app! Are you planning on doing updates?

I can't install it pls help

Hi there,
just installed it and works, but when I install "xposed youtube background playback" it does not work. Would you know how to overcome this problem ?

YouTube Kids app icon missing in launcher

as im not in one of those YT Kids app supported regions, i installed the app with APK (from apkmirror.com) and enjoyed it for over a year already.. however, today suddenly i realised that the app icon disappeared in my launcher drawer.. it was there a few hours ago and in between the period i didnt reboot the phone, didnt install or update any app, didnt touch any files in my phone..
i checked "/data/app" directory, and there was the "com.google.android.apps.youtube.kids-1" directory with all files intact.. i tried to re-install the apk and it went without any problem.. and there was a new "/data/app/com.google.android.apps.youtube.kids-2" directory created with all files same as the previous installation.. but the app icon just did not appear in the drawer..
i tried to switch to the stock launcher, and the app icon was still missing..
now im out of ideas for what could go wrong.. any suggestion for me?
tia..

Same thing happend to me (Samsung Galaxy Tab A, Stock 7.0), nu luck with previous versions of Youtube Kids either..

Same here. Galaxy S8. What has happened? Maybe recent Google instant app has something to do with it ?

Hi, same issue here on a Lenovo tablet and Galaxy S7, both running android 7.x. App appears to be gone from the app list and only by installing an app uninstaller i am able to remove it. Same problem when trying to install older versions of the YT Kids. I can install but i can't run it or see it in the app list.
On an older device runing kitkat the icon is still there with no problems, so i would guess this may be a new feature on the google services or so. They may now be enforcing regional limitations. Any info on that?

Unfortunately same thing here. Samsung tab A 2016 !

Same hete, but went here https://kids.youtube.com
Clicked to get it then app store opened he app and was able to enable it

it still redirects to play store, and thus app availability is still subject to regions..

I can only confirm the problem ( Galaxy A5 2017 running Nougat)
Seems like a server side or Nougat upgrade issue.
I have exactly same symptoms. app icon is missing, side-loaded app installs but does not register properly so it does not appear in app list, and can be uninstalled only with third party app (e.g. ES File explorer)
Hope there will be a solution to run YT Kids once again in regions where it's not officially supported.

Hopefully someone can make a modded apk version without a region check.

i dont think the check is done in the app itself, probably its done in the framework..
cos i have not updated the app, and suddenly it went from working to disappearance, so i guess something in the underlying google framework changed..

Okay, so maybe someone knows a simular app. I didn't found one yet, after ours of searching and installing
---------- Post added at 08:45 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:30 AM ----------
I installed a lot of different versions of yt kids and sometimes he wil open after installation and after a few second he stopps working. But the icon never apears from two weeks ago. The disapearing happend on the same day by my phone, from my wifes phone and my mother in laws phone?

Yeah, sad Google starts to execute regional restrictions more strictly. :crying:
The latest version 2.28.14 have new logo but won't run although it installs almost fine except no icon.
Therefore you should use 3rd party app to uninstall defunct app (e.g. ES File Explorer).
It seems it's gone for good. Check thread below:

Yes. Downgrade your os to MM and down. And will work. On Nougat it's not working.

I have tested in on 3 devices and its working:
S3 mini - android 4.1 stock - YTKIDS working
Tab 3 8" - android 4.2 stock - YTKIDS working
P8 lite - android 6 stock - YTKIDS working
P9 lite 2017 - android 7 stock - YTKIDS not working
So... Must be something with the Nougat that blocks YouTube kids.

thx ic..

It is firmware related. I have TAB S2 for my daughter with Nougat and on previous version of firmware YK works OK - installed from APK mirror, but updated firmware (just new version - still Nougat 7.0) deletes icon from launcher

So, anyone found a solution to this, same here Samsung galaxy Tab A8 2017, and Note 8
it seems it is because of Android N
