[Q] Google Play Store aps not Auto Updating?

When I first got the phone , when an App had an update on the Store, my HOX would auto update within 24 hours. No problem.
About 10 days ago I did a hard reset. Everything went well and I've verified all settings.
However in the past ten days - no auto updates, as the list of updated apps grows.
I've verified al settings, cleared Play Store cache, cleared Play Store data,
Nothing seems to make a diff. Same holds true whether I am on Mobile or Wifi.
Anyone else's HOX not auto updating?
Suggestions?

Mine has been working fine, noticed it updating a couple apps yesterday. Are you on stock or a custom Rom? Maybe try a factory reset if stock, or a reflash if a custom Rom...

The reason I did a factory reset ten days ago was to address this issue, no joy.
Phone is HT25 and otherwise in great condition.
Two things non standard, not sure if relevant,
I have Fast boot disabled in power settings.
I am using SmartSync Disabler by Jan from here at xda to keep my wifi alive for more than an hour at a time overnight.
No problems with my google account as my Motor Xoom tablet auto updates quite frequently.
Frankly its an irritation more than functional problem. I don't mind updating myself.
Its just that my last hone, HTC Inspire had the same problem for nearly a year. Only thing that fixed it was when I installed Google Play Store apk to get rid of Android Market.
So ya know, new phone here and bothersome to see an old problem hanging around from my last HTC phone.
I can always try a factory reset but that didn't help last go around.

Did you find a solution?
I'm having the same problem...

Here's a few things to try to fix it.
FYI, I run CM10, so my descriptions of how to get to some settings may be inaccurate, but you should be able to do all of these on your phone regardless.
Go to settings->data usage.
Hit menu and ensure that restrict background data is unchecked, and autosync data is checked
Remove your google account.
reboot
add your google account.
Clear data for both the play store and Google Services Framework
Reboot
Final option
Run an RUU to get yourself back to completely stock. See if apps start updating again.

If you are rooted, you can use Titanium Back-up Pro to change the auto update setting.

+1 - I've used Titanium in the past to restore marketplace links, works well. If you can't cough up for this marvellous utility there might be other apps for free that just do this one task. Good luck in any case! :good:

[Q] Anyone having problems with Play Store downloads?

As of yesterday I started having issues downloading apps from the play store. They would sit at a downloading state, but never kick off. When i cancel the download and try it again everything works fine. Its very intermittent. Seems to only be the play store. I even flashed a couple different ROM's and the problem is persisting in all of them. Thanks

Have you tried again today? I believe Google was have problems yesterday.
You can always force stop and clear data and cache.

Ya I was having the same issue today. I noticed there was a play store services update. I am flashing a leak 4 ROM now. Ill see if that makes a difference. Thanks for the reply

[Q] RH-01 Error and "waiting for location" on every install

So, for the past month or so, every time I switch up ROMs I have the same or similar errors occur: First, whether on 4G or WiFi I get an RH-01 error on the Play Store which won't clear until I've wiped cache and data for Play Store and Services Framework multiple times. Also have tried loading recovery and wiping cache and dalvik and fixing permissions. Also tried installing 4.1.1 or 4.1.2 Gapps. Even then it sometimes won't work at all, and I'll end up flashing something like CM10 which I've had more luck getting to work (after a few attempts). Secondly, Google Maps navigation will get stuck on the "waiting for location" message and will never pop up my directions. I know I am getting satellite lock because I have gotten very fast and clear signal using the GPSfix app and sometimes other apps that use location (weather, twitter, Facebook) don't seem to have trouble. Tried uninstalling and reinstalling maps, more wiping of cache and dalvik and fix permissions, toggling GPS on and off, haven't gotten it fixed yet. As far as I can tell, these issues started when I installed ROMs based on the TW 4.1.1 leaks and have carried over to either more recent leak ROMs or AOKP/CM10 ROMs. And yes I clean install to the extent possible each time, both these issues appear every time. Is there something corrupted somewhere that I can overwrite or wipe perhaps? Or could my hardware have developed a quirky fault? Thanks for any and all suggestions.

I'm in the same boat, I've search through multiple forums with no luck, the only time Google play connects instantly is right after I Odin back to stock ROM, but once I install a more current ROM whether TW/AOKP/AOSP, I get the RH-01 error. This is so frustrating.

Its just not meant to be it seems. Sell your phone and get a iphone! j/k

Same, but it happened to me suddenly after few weeks of using a custom ROM. I was to install an update and the play app disappeared and couldn't have been relaunched. Erasing cache caused that i have got the messahe [RH-01] and also localization services are gone. Fixing permissions, wiping cache + dalvik... the same.

I'm having the exact same issues. This freaking blows. Odin and restoring a Nandroid are only things that work for me.

[Q] Play store and wifi? (Solved)

So recently something weird is happening. When I connect to my wifi, I can go on the internet, use tweetcaster, email, everything, except the playstore app. I get the not connected/retry error. I've searched and searched and tried all the fixes like clearing cache, deleting accounts, everything. When I switch the wifi off, and connect via 3G, it all works just fine.
Any ideas?
GT N8000 (wifi+3G)
(XXCLL1)
(XXCMA2)

Oh, and additional info, Play app on my Note II on the same wifi network, works perfectly.

Same Error
I'm stock and I get the same error as you do. I retry and it usually works. I also have an Acer A500 and I get the same error msg with that. I don't think it's your tablet. My wife has a Note II and I don't know if she's experiencing the same problem. She is stock also but her tablet is running a different android version. I think she's on 4.2.2.

Dont know if you tried this, but here it goes:
Remove google account, force stop play store and google services, clean cache and data from play store and google services, then reboot to recovery, clean cache and dalvik cache, fix permitions, reboot system, log in to google again, and see if it helps

Tried that now. When I'm setting up the google account, I get "Can't establish a reliable connection to the server"? I'm trying to set it up over the wifi, and as I mentioned, the Note II is connected to the same wifi and no problems.
I'm about ready to tear my hair out.

Ok, so I deleted the wifi connection, added it again, and now I have Play store working over wifi.
That was weird.

Same issue here, did you also get an update recently?

Insufficient Storage

Well this started happening last night, but whenever I try to install anything, I get the insufficient storage warning. I've rebooted many times lol. 20gb free on phone. 28 free on sd card

Try running Smartclean

Nope. Also tried clean master. I have so much free space it's insane. I've used 8gb of 54 available. I've uninstalled all apps but ones I absolutely need. Guess my next step is to uproot and go back to factory stock?

When I switched sd cards, Google music gave me a warning it couldn't download music. I was stumped. Went into settings and noticed my old sd card was checked, I had changed it out and selected the new one. Did you swap sd cards?
Sent from my LG-D850 using XDA Free mobile app

I have been getting this error today and I have tried clearing app caches and data of Play Store & Services but it didn't work. There is tons (23GB) of free space in the data folder and I have used autostarts to enable every app in every event as I had been messing around with this today (since I got the same error on my SGS once and some totally random unconnected app that I had disabled an event for that caused this) all to no avail.
I am going to just do a wipe and start again as I have tried everything I can think of..

You have to download sdcard fix for kit Kat from the play store and run it. You have to use that app if you have done a factory reset, flashed a rom, switched sdcards, etc. This will fix the problem.

Anyone have a Confirmed fix?

This is incorrect. I had SDFix already installed and set and the message came up. Actually, I reset my phone today for no reason as now on 2 apps it says have updates it is coming with the same message again! Though last time there were more apps needing updates so I am a little further along lol

It worked for me on my Note 3 after I had done a factory reset. It's not the same phone but I figured it would fix the problem.

Ah then u were lucky.
As you can see there is not really a lack of storage in the places where there usually would indicate a problem, usually the data or datadata folders depending on ROM used.

I have tried:
Clearing app caches
LG Smartclean
Lucky Patcher - removing ODEX files
For updating Apps: removing the App's folder in data/app-lib
Clearing Play Store/Google Play Services cache/data then uninstalling all updates
This to delete any bad packages
Moving most apps to the SD card
With no success. It's not just the updates that won't install but new apps too.
*Apparently on Samsung phones you can try *#9900# then 'Delete Dumpstate/logcat'

Sorry my idea didn't work, just trying to throw that idea out there since I had had that issue before. Hope you find a fix because I know that issue is annoying.

No worries. It was expected on my lowly I9000 with only about 300MB for apps in the datadata folder but I just got my super modern G3 with 32GB storage/3GB RAM about a few weeks ago so I expected it would deal with anything thrown at it and I never expected it to have this same problem especially on the stock ROM! Actually I think I had more apps installed on the I9000 and it never came up with this error lol
I think after trying everything I could find online that I am going to flash the stock from from LG Flash instead of resetting as I have done and see if that fixes it..
**UPDATE: Well I thought I would deactivate all Xposed Framework modules...then I was able to install/update as normal! I re-enabled but this time I left XPackage Installer deactivated and it's all working! Perhaps if you have Xposed and Xpackage Installer activated to try this..and to think I spent the whole day resetting, reinstalling and reconfiguring....my initial suspicions were right on it just being some random thing :silly:LOL

This one worked for me
LG G3 5.0 rooted and it worked
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vinny.intsdfixer

FYI this method worked for me for everything except Google Play Services. Thanks to D0MINO I just deactivated my Xposed modules - rebooted - updated Play Services - reactivated - reboot - profit. Thanks!! (been annoying me for days)
