[Q] My apps don't automatically update anymore - Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I'm running 4.4.2 not rooted here. After installing the Amazon App Store and uninstalling it, my Google Play store apps don't automatically update themselves anymore even if I have them set to do so. What can I do to solve the problem?
Thanks.

With default Google Play settings app will update automatically when the phone network connected through wifi

I know they should, but they don't. I've even tried bringing the Google Play app to the default version which comes with the Moto G and then re-updating it, but nothing changed. Apps only update if I open the Google Play app. Before they used to update whenever I connected to wifi.

Kinda solved it. I restored my Moto G to stock firmware 4.4.2, because apparently simply restoring factory settings wouldn't do the trick. Oh, well, I have a few apps installed anyway

[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] Changed bootanimation. Cant find Motorola Boot Services in Play Store anymore

I have an XT1032 4.4.3.
I tried changing my bootanimation to the Android L one by downloading the flashable zip found here:
http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/android-l-...-system-dump-available-kitkat-devices-1454562
First off, it was obviously not meant for the screen size of the Moto G as it didn't work properly. So then I tried to change it back to the normal animation by Uninstalling Updates for Motorola Boot Services and hopefully then reinstalling the update from the play store.
Well, I can't find it on the play store when i search for it. I can find it in my apps list in the play store and then after clicking it I updated it. Oddly, it gives me an option to uninstall it. Im not gonna do that.
I downloaded the zip for the original one and replaced the Android L one via root explorer.
How can I find Boot Services in the Play Store again?

I can't find it in the play store either, but here is the apk, I pulled it from my Moto G.
Thanks for the apk but as I mentioned, I can't find it when Im searching for it but in my apps list where it shows all the apps that were ever installed on my device, I can see it and then update it from there.

I just did that now. I was expecting to see an update for it along with the whole list of google apps that need to get updated when you reset your phone. But the problem still persists.
How is this a problem at all??

Just because you install the apk doesn't mean it'll stop it from in the future automatically updating.
Okay, using apk is a different case
In case I want to get it automatically updated
The what should I do???

[Q] Stock 5.0 Lollipop broken google play services

I am running fully stock factory restored lollipop on my N5 unrooted.
I was trying to setup trusted places but it wasn't listed in my security settings; I looked around and was told up update my Google Play Services.
I downloaded the latest apk from apkmirror.com and installed it like any other apk. This broke it.
Every 2 seconds I get a notification that an app requires an update to google play services. Also any location based actions now fail and loads of settings are missing.
Any ideas?
Because u used the wrong apk.
Try this - http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google.../google-play-services-6-5-87-1599771-446-apk/

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.
