[PROBLEM] Cannot download certain apps from play store

Alright, I searched around for the past hour but I couldnt find an answer, so here goes!!
I have a Nexus 5 that I rooted and installed TWRP just this afternoon. When I tried updating SuperSU and hangouts and installing ES File Explorer the play store was stuck on the "Downloading" message and never downloaded the file. But updates of all other apps worked fine. I am on WiFi. I even tried installing other apps and they work fine.
Here is everything I've tried: Resetting apps preferences, removing and adding my google account, rebooting the phone, clearing play store cache.
Then for one last thing, I tried downloading the apps over 3G and hurrah they download fine!
So I'm guessing the issue is with my WiFi configuration, but my Mac works fine on the same WiFi connection, so please help me out here in identifying the problem!
TIA

Have same issues on gt9300, guess this is google's issue

I thought it was something wrong with my phone, glad to know it isn't. But still weird :|

[Q] rooted device without backing up(can't install anything)

Hello everyone! First post from a noob android fanboy! I have a gnex gsm version. I rooted recently and flashed cm11, but the problem is that I did not backed up my data(don't know why I did that sincerely), but the problem is somewhere else. I couldn't install anything. When I try to download Facebook it says error, try to download play store, won't open. I sign in with my account on play store on the web and it show the status of my previous apps installed, but I can't find them nowhere. This is the best part where I factory reset my phone, loosing all my data, but the situation is the same. I flashed cwm before the custom ROM, but I don't know if I have it anymore. Any idea is welcome guys. Thanks in advance

You cant install google play and start downloading apps right away !!
You have to flash GApps
(Google Apps)
Search for this on google : cm11 gapps
Download it and format system + factory reset from the recovery (cwm)
Then flash the rom again .. And before u boot to system, flash the GApps package

Moto G Lollipop Can't Sign Into Google Account

I have Asian Retail Moto G. Recently an update to 5.02 popped up on the phone. I tried installing it, but it didn't work with clockwork bootloader. By the way, my bootloader is of course unlocked and the phone was rooted before the update. So I flashed the stock bootloader and installed the update. But then i couldn't get to the play store, it showed something like "Can't connect to the play store". To fix this i tried logging out the google account. And now I can't login at all. It says "Couldn't sign in. Can't establish a reliable connection to the server". I tried clearing cache of play store and play services, rolling back updates and disabling google apps. Nothing helped. What can I do now? I really need my google apps.
PROBLEM SOLVED. A clean reinstall of 5.0.2 helped.

It has happened to me too, and, in my case, is 'cause I have a slow connection with Internet. Maybe can you connect in a fast WiFi.

My Internet is alright. And i tried to login at friend's place and it didn't work either.

Problem solved. I just did a clean reinstall of 5.0.2 from the computer and everything works fine.

[Q] Problem with Galaxy SIII

Hey guys,
I have a Samsung Galaxy SIII GT-19300 8GB running on Anroid 4.3, rooted and custom ROM Manager installed. Recently all Google Play services have stopped working. I literally can't do anything. I can' t log in, can't use Youtube, can't open the Play store because it gives me the No connection- retry error, of course. I heard it was because of Freedom. I deleted the app and tried to re-install it... but I cannot even install apk files; not any kind of apk file. I tried to force-install it with an android terminal, but that doesn't work either. Aptoide also does not want to install anything. I basically deleted the cache for every google app & I uninstalled all updates; but all in vain. Nothing seems to work except for Whatsapp and the actual internet browser. Please help me, I really need my phone to work properly.
Thanks in advance, any kind of help is appreciated

Reflash Stock ROM via Odin (you wont lost anything on internal storage) or try flash any gapps for 4.x.x via custom recovery.

Download your stock ROM. Put it in your pc and then flash it using Odin.
U may also need to flash gapps using your custom recovery.

Ok. You have got the answer in this thread
But before that just try to do a factory data reset
If you have some important data, take a nandroid backup
And then do a factory data reset
And I may be a foolish in this but I am considering it because everything may be possible here, enable the background data if it is disable

Well, okay, I guess that's my only option, I have reflashed the Stock ROM and that hasn't fixed my problem either. Factory data reset it will be. I'll come back to you whenever I have done the data reset. I really hope this'll fix the problem, because I don't want to do a factory data reset at all. :/

[Q] Apps Stuck "Downloading"

Two days ago I decided to switch from cm12 nightlies to cm12s.
After performing a clean flash I was very pleased to see that I even had the option to restore the apps I had installed before. However, when trying to install those apps I encountered a problem. Because the apps would not download. They would say "Downloading"but it woult get stuck forever.
I had never experienced such problem before but so I thought it was the cm12s flash. So, I flashed back to the latest cm12 nightly I still had on my OPO with the hope that the problem would have vanished. Unfortunately it didn't.
MY PROBLEM:
When I try to install apps from the play store they get stuck in an endless loop of "downloading".
What I tried so far:
flashing back to a normal cm12 nightly
flashing cm11s and after that upgrading to cm12s (in cm11s the problem also persists, same for SOKP-rom to see if it would also persist in a different rom)
rebooting with and without superSU after flashing OS.
entirely wiping my phone (cache, dalvik cache, system, data) and flashing cm12/s
after the step above^, deleting the data and/or cache from "Google Play Services", "Google play Store", "Google Play Framework" (and if possible deleting updates so it goes back to factory app)
changing location settings
deleting google account and re adding it.
clearing Cache and Dalvik Cache multiple times
using the 1-Click installer from their forum
Tried to find the android_secure folder but could not find it. (even with hidden files disabled in windows)
Perhaps even more but I can't quite remember much more...
I experienced after flashing a new os multiple times that the problem is not really the play store and/or the apps in it. But I believe the problem is more with the "Google Play Services" because most of the apps I can update perfectly fine but the "Google Play Services" continuously refuse to update and get stuck at "downloading". Unfortunately that app is needed to be able to use e.g "Gmail".
Hopefully there are more people on this forum who have experienced this problem before and know how to fix it.

Got the same crap... It's been 2 days now with the Store stuck on downloading.
I have all the latest updates, Store, Services etc.
Also tried to disable the security section like Enterprise.
Nothing works.... This is driving me mad!!!
Anyone got a fix?

Somehow it fixed itself......
What cought my eye was that if it is not working, try downloading the app via 3g or at your friends house... For some reason it would sometimes not download via wifi but it would via 3g.
I hope this works for you aswel

I didn't get it working again, so I removed all data and reinstalled the rooted firmware for my device and just did a backup with the mybackup pro.
Somehow there was something with the system or the data, but it works now.
