I have the same problem with certain apps from the market (Air Attack HD and Tune Wiki to name a few). I get the message that it "can't install to SD card and I think it also says something about USB. I have gone into BAMF Toolkit and "Application Install Location" and tried all three options and still does not want to work. I read in one post that there is a Market App fix, but I've tried searching for it with no luck. Any help on this would be appreciated

I get the same error with angry birds

Try removing your SD card before download.

Pulling the SD card prior to download did not work for me. I am only getting the error on certain apps. Tune Wiki for example will not install from Market. I then went to their web page and tried to install the app directly (as an attachment from my email) and it won't install from there either. That makes me think that there is a remnant of the program somewhere on my phone or some other error that is preventing this and has nothing to do with the Market App. Does anyone have suggestions. I've installed Root Explorer on my phone, but not exactly sure where I should be looking and what I should be deleting. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm running BAMF 1.6.3.

Read a post about clearing market cache. Still no love. Gonna keep trying. Let's keep this post alive until we figure this out.

Yeah, I tried deleting the Market cache and cleared data and that didn't help. I don't think it is a Market issue though (read my post a couple up), since I can download most apps from the Market. The only ones I have problem with are ones that were previously on my phone, and this is not all of the previous apps, just some of them. Also attempting to install a app (one that I had trouble with from Market) from an email attachment also will not install. Are others that are having this problem having the same symptoms: can download some apps, can't install problem apps from email either?

So I need to back track as now my Market App is not installing anything. I've tried what others have suggested go into Manage Programs and delete cache, clear data and force stop Market app, and that has just made matters worse.

[Q] Deleted Google Play

Hey there. I have been trying to resolve the "Package File Invalid", so one of the things i read here on xda said uninstall updates for the android market. I did this, and it installed Google Play completely. I tried flashing a package with the google play market version 3.4.6, but it force closes as soon as I open it. Can anyone help me? :3

I'm not sure if applicable in your circumstance but whenever I start having issues with force closes I reboot into CWM and clear my cache & Dalvik (under advanced) then "goback" & check reset permissions & reboot PHONE .....NOT Reboot Recovery. So far, it's worked like a champ every time for me.

When does it say "Package File Invalid" ?

may Reboot Recovery

It said Package File Invalid when I was downloading Draw Something Free. But thats not the point, I deleted Google Play off my phone and need to know how to get it back.

The point is that the invalid signature error usually comes from either having a broken/warezed/older version already installed, or the download corrupting.
So the signature from the update/download doesn't match what is already installed or has just been downloaded.
Your problem now is that you probably just removed the market but not the other apps it depends on on.
So either restore exactly the market version you removed or flash a new version plus the matching versions of its dependencies.

I've tried flashing both version 3.4.7 and 3.4.6, and they both force close as soon as I open them. Can you show me how to make it work, or tell me how to get it from stop force closing?

I would suggest a nandroid backup and a complete factory reset.. chuck on a custom (up to date (ics) rom) while your at it

Thats the exact reason I haven't yet. I have installed a custom rom and stuff already

I too am having the issue with all apps after 260 apps installed. I noticed that when I uninstall one app I can install a app that had said "package file invalid" two minutes earlier. Its weird.

I have had this problem before, the cause for me was that I was using g a DNS changer. Uninstalled it and that fixed it for me.

I don't have a DNS changer installed. I'm using MIJJZ Blend 2.3 and everthing before 260 installed fine, but now I have to uninstall a app to install a app.

Then the only other thing I can think of is clearing data/cache as per http://www.thespicygadgematics.com/2011/12/fix-android-package-file-is-invalid.html

I had tried that before. I've been bouncing between Darkstar 1.0.2 and Blend 2.*. I have experienced this issue on all Blend builds and never had the issue on Darkstar. Its weird the first time I had the "package file is invalid" error I was reinstalling my backedup apps. It happened ony on 3 apps(gosms, titanium backup, bunny shooter) and everything else installed fine. 2nd time gosms and titanium backup installed fine, but other apps wouldn't install. The funny thing about it is one of the first apps had the error, but I still installed 30+ apps after that. I've wied and reinstalled Blend 2.3 3 times and this last time I got every app reinstalled and even a few more before the error. I uninstalled one app and installed one app that had previously failed. So I tried uninstalling 3 big apps(angry birds trilligy) and still can't install a 588 kb app. I can't install a single app now. Debating on flashing stock kernel, but really don't want to loose cwm.

[Q] Unknown error -110

Hello all,
I recently installed Thunderstick Full Blown (wiped everything clean, cleared dalvik, etc.), and now no matter what I do, when I install an app I get an 'unknown error: -110' and the app won't install. Occasionally if I'm lucky, and application will install.
I tried installing titanium backup a couple of times, then it finally worked. Then I went to restore my applications from titanium backup and it constantly force closes.
I tried fixing permissions in recovery, but that didn't work. This makes it incredibly hard to get my phone back to normal is 9 times out of 10 an app won't install.
Any ideas on ways I can get this sucker fixed?

If it is unknowen, then by the very defination how do they know its an error?
Jellybean now.... Rise to the issue Google.

REPORTED!

If the play store is themed or modded in any way you might get errors like these.

Totally odd. Did a clean wipe/ROM re-install, then cleared market cache before opening it. Now it looks like it's all working. But it didn't update to Google Play - seems like when it updates to Google Play, it throws the error. But I'll keep you updated .
Don't have any market modifications, but perhaps the ROM does.

The new play store doesn't work properly if it is themed or modded in any way. Its something google did i guess to prevent it from being hacked.

[Q] RH-01 Error when trying to open Google play store

I just rooted my phone from Jelly Bean 4.1 and am running the latest stable CM10 rom out. I also installed gapps, but wasn't sure if I had installed the right version. When I try to open the Google Play store, I get an error that says "Error retrieving information from sever. [RH-01]". My Wi fi and 4G are both on. I can access internet via stock browser. Also, when I try to search something it tells me that Gmail has stopped working.

same thing here, after i installed lots of apps to my microsd's 2nd partition using link2sd, i got all apps except system apps disappeared from 'My apps' at google play store though i could still see them as 'installed' when i search their names at google play store
i used link2sd to link around 900 mb of lib, dex and apk files, my second partition is ext 3, im using jellyblastv3 with kuro kernel that supports up to ext 4 my microsd is 16 gb and partition is around 1024 ~ 1078 mb
This didn't happen to me before, well im not used to link this lot of files but you know galaxy y has 195 mb internal storage and dalvik cache takes most of it and the apps that use app2sd method still take some space from internal so i also linked them.
The methods i tried :
Fixing using titanium backup market doc (after a cache, data cleaning of app store)
Tried to mess with link2sd, tried everything except 'relink all' but the problem is not about link2sd, all my apps are working fine
Deleting play store cache & deleting google framework cache and data, THAT led me to this error, while i was trying to get the other apps to show up in my apps list things gone worse.
I couldn't find any solutions on the internet for link2sd, been googling this for last 3 days, i'd appreciate any help

I've had the same issue. Erasing cache doesn't help, removing Google account doesn't help, reflashing doesn't help. I had to restore a backup to get the play store back.

I had the same issue with my phone, whenever I factory reset my phone I get that error. I had to flash through Odin, to another stock ROM and then go from there. Was never able to get around it or figure out why it wouldn't work.

Fixed but still got problems
My error was caused coz i messed up with 'google framework' at gemini app manager too much, it changes app auto runs and i didn't know anything about google framework back then, i re-enabled some autoruns and its fine now, you could also try that app, its free on google app store
BUT i still couldn't find a solution to this :
I have got total of 210 ~ 216 apps installed on my phone including system apps, theres only like 16 showing up on the market (which i reinstalled or newly installed them recently from google play store) the rest aren't displayed at 'my apps' page, but i can still see them as 'installed' when i go to their download pages.STILL i can't update them, while appbrain market tells me they are outdated (its expected as i didn't update any programs due to this problem for last 2 weeks) google play store just shows 'Open, uninstall' options at app's download page
Is there any ways to fix this without losing all my apps data? I tried reinstalling from old backups but no luck, i don't wanna lose my apps data and i don't know how to backup my data without apks included

Bump.
Anyone else figured out any fixes. This seems to be affecting several people.

Go to apps- all google play store, clear cache, data and disable. Then google services framework clear cache and data and force stop. Reboot. Should get a notification for updates and go back into apps- all scroll to the bottom and enable play store. This has worked for me the last few times I got this error.

By the way I solved the problem by flashing the correct gapps for 4.1

fix for my error
****EDIT**** : Can only get apps installed from google play store work, the rest (like installed from sd card) won't get linked to play store
looks like i found the fix, reinstall every single app (got 216 atm ) with their orginal APK without using titanium.It seems like titanium had problems while backing my apks up, perhaps its something about titanium failing to sync my data (i usually do full backups with data so this shouldn't happen) Devs should really create some apps - scripts to fix this kind of sync problems, i found only one app @ xda so far, but it scans the google play store database, not all of the databases on the phone, even if i point my ext as database it won't work, its so annoying how i gotta reinstall my whole 216 apps, probably gonna take one day cause i don't have backups of all my apks, only big ones (such as games).
if you don't wanna get same errors as i did :
use the default play store
NEVER use nandroid advanced restore unless you know what your doing
make sure titanium backup works well
always backup your data before flashing anything that has something to do with your system (such as roms, scripts)
NEVER use autorun managers on system apps (last time i disabled some autoruns about sms service, it took 1 - 2 days for my msgs to appear at my friends' phones.)

what is the right gapps?

Another problem...
seems like most of the apps that i install from my SD don't get linked to google play store, they aren't even in the database, only apps that are installed from google store got their links correctly, someone help please
NOTE : i also get 'error retrieving info from server, RPC:s-5:AEC-0 if i wipe dalvik cache via CWM
IMPORTANT UPDATE : It seems like my apps divided into 2 different adroid IDs, probably cause titanium wasn't able to detect my new ID,
Any suggestions about syncing my android apps' IDs without having to reinstall them?
