[Q] play store app update updates one or two then stops - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello guys,
Very frequently when there are several apps to update on play store, nothing happens and I have to stop then start the update all process again. Then it updates two or so, then nothing again and I have to stop and press update all again...
Anyone know what's going on?
Im on Stock, rooted 4.4.2.
Cheers
Mark.

I too have this problem, although it happened before upgrading to 4.2.2 as well.

Reboot your device, fixed for me.

I will try next time I'm updating... but my phone has been rebooted a few times since 4.4.2, so it's not like it has just been set up. Also the issue was also there with 4.4.1 and maybe even 4.4.0
cheers
Mark.

Hi
I don't see a way to "unlink" my google account. I have 3 on my phone, and the only options in phone settings is to deselect sync (tick box) for specific items or to remove the account.
what do you mean?
tx

I have had the issue where I hit update all and then I don't hit the accept new changes that the application is requesting. It doesn't seem to show unless you stop and restart the download.

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?

I had these error a couple of months ago, it appeared without any apparent cause. I managed to fix it uninstalling all the Play Store updates (rolling back to the stock version) and wiping app cache & data. After this, rebooted and updated the Play Store again and the error never came back.
Hope it helps
Just to let you guys know that I returned the phone to GiffGaff and it was accepted for replacement (they had to, since it was still under the first 14 days). I already have the new phone and no problems so far.

[HELP] Error RPC:S-3

Hi there;
I reinstall the stock rom on my nexus 5. At the beginning all my apps get well installed. But I see that Zooper Pro Widget didn't install, I try to install it manually but I receive the message error RPC:S-3...
I found a thread on XDA a tried everything were mentioned there but nothing works .
The problem seems to be with Zooper cause I can install other application without problems.
Any idea ?
Did you install the latest stock image, 4.4.3? Maybe zopper isn't compatible with it yet

Got the same issue at the moment with an app (Scrum Poker).
I tried clearing stuff (google play and google play services - didn't touch the play framework data yet) but to no avail. The app is constantly nagging me about updates and I will probably end up uninstalling it.

I hope you will have the same luck I have. I had to wait just one day and everyhing seems to be good now.
It seems that's a a random issue. I was updating my apps when I only had this error with CM Browser.
This is happening to me too, I thought that it's because I rooted with towelroot.
I had to download the apk using apk downloader chrome extension and sideload it.
I could not update using play store. I uninstalled it tried to install it fresh but I still got the error. After I sideloaded it, I uninstalled it and tried to install it directly from Google play and it worked!
Edit: the apps that I could not update were gtasks and badland.

Did the same, and now I don't get the nag about the update. Guess there was something odd, since I had to "force" to download the latest, so maybe the error is actually on google's side and I have been resetting and reconfiguring stuff like a mad man for nothing
Exactly.I cleared data for Google play and Google play services, uninstalled updates for Google play, I even cleared data for Google framework but nothing helped. It could be a Google issue.

More tests:
I can install a new app or uninstall an app and then reinstall it without a problem.
It seems that only apps that have updates generate this error.
*EDIT* There's a new update for rayman fiesta run and the update worked so the problem could be fixed already
*EDIT2* I uninstalled Badland and it still gives the error when I try to install it fresh.

I'm assuming this is perhaps an issue on Google's end somehow. I've never had this error, as I've always been stock/rooted. However, I am now getting this error when trying to update the ESPN Sportscenter app. I figure I'll just wait to see if it resolves itself.

Yesterday I was finally able to install CM Browser. I didn't do anything to fix it.
In my case force downloading the latest version from play store (using the chrome extension on my desktop) did the trick. It seems that the version that google was serving me by default was 2.3 though it was notifying me that it had an update ready.
Guess it's some sort of caching issue, but for me it was annoying (was so close to reset the phone).

Just an update from my post above. I was getting the error all day yesterday trying to update the Sportscenter app. This morning, it updated fine. I didn't do anything at all. I guess a little patience does go a long way.

[Q] black screen pops up and goes away

I've had this really weird problem ever since the update for 4.4.4 got downloaded to my phone automatically as soon as it was released for the Verizon moto g. I'll be using my phone like normal and this black screen will pop up for a second as if it is asking me to do something but nothing is there then it will go away. It happens quickly and doesn't do anything but it is very annoying. I'm wondering if it is because I told the update not to install yet and set a reminder for later? Although it isn't time for that reminder to go off yet and this happens about every 5 minutes or so. I haven't installed any new apps or downloaded anything and I even factory reset my phone and the problem remains.
I'm not rooted and my boot loader is still locked. Running stock android 4.4.2 on Verizon xt1028.
Ideas?

It's from the OTA notification service.I have the same issue, coz I'm lazy to disable the update service atm.
To clarify, the problem you get is a quick flash-in/flash-out in black color. Happens quite quick.Right?

Yeah that's exactly what happens! I figured it had to do with the OTA… so how can I stop it from doing that? or should I just update to 4.4.4? Are there any issues?

You can disable it if you have root.In case you do, then go to /system/priv-app/ and find motorolaOTA.apk , change its permissions to 0000 and you`re good :>

nexus 5 not checking updates

Hi Everyone...
As lollipop is running out I though I would try to have it on my nexus 5.
First I went on System update, then check now. Nothing change, then phone is telling me "last checked on Oct. 4".
Then I read that dialing *#*#checkin#*#* would force it to check, that's what I did, after few seconds, the notification "checkin failed" appeared.
And when I tried to flash it inside, adb is not recognizing my phone even though it's listed in system information...
Any clue what's going on ?
Thank you very much for your time and answers !
the ota for the nexus 5 has only been released several hours ago. google does not send them to everyone at the same time. only a few will get updates, then more after. google promises everyone will get an update within 3 weeks. and you dont want/need adb to flash the factory img, you need fastboot to do that(via the bootloader).

You're totally right, but I have the slight feeling something is wrong when the time of last checked doesn't change and have an error with the *#*#checkin#*#*

Hey I had the same problem. It was showing last checked on 8th October even if I tried check now option . but when I used the *#*#checkin#*#* from dialer it got updated without any fail.so I would suggest you to make sure that your internet is working and give a try again
