I recently updated my phone to cm11 m8. All was fine until I opened my play store. It gave me the message 'unfortunately, google play store has stopped.' I tried the usual clear cache and data, rebooting the phone etc. Nothing seems to work. I then went ahead to uninstalling updates for Google play services. And when I realised that many apps wouldn't run on the older version I knew I was screwed. If I'm not wrong, the only way to update google play services is through the play store and my play store isn't working. Please someone help me. I feel so worried rn.

Make sure it's set as a system app, and not a user app.

Maybe the google apps weren't installed as they should have been when you were installing cm11. Try to get rid of any app that's related to google on your phone, and then find a zip folder of google apps (I suppose you can find one on cm webpage) and flash it via c.w.m.

i think you need to post to the developers of the rom to add some app gapps including the whole playstore and google services wich in flashable.zip so you could easily install
flash...
Same advice here
remove everything and flash gapps as a zip...
it will most probably work :good:
Cheers :good:

Has anyone gotten the play store to auto-update to the new 4.0.x version? I know I could side-load it, but I was hoping for it to just auto-update to avoid hassles.
I've tried various combinations of clearing the play store and google services data, uninstalling their updates, and rebooting, and it re-updates them to the prior 3.x versions.
Is this just me? Anyone have suggestions on how to get this to update properly?

Mine is 4.0.26. I suggest try to clear data Google play store and Google Play services, uninstall updates, then reboot, this Google Play services should update and so is play store...hopefully.

Well, I'd tried that before, with no luck. Maybe something snuck in before I restarted and it updated to the old version? Who knows.
This time, based on some other searching I'd done, I tried also clearing the data for Google Services Framework, and being sure to reboot as fast as I could after doing all that.
I also went in and looked at the app versions after restarting but before launching the play store, and it had quickly re-updated the Google Play Services app to I think the newest version (3.0.27, matches my Droid 4 that has the new play store). After launching the play store, it updated that, but only to 3.10.14 (I think it was 3.10.9 before), not 4.0.x.
So, still no luck

I assumed that you're on the latest rom (JB 4.2.1) and latest bootloader? download and side load play store from here:

Next time disable any apps you are thinking of removing before you remove them so you can see if it causes issues, if it does you can just renable the app and be back to normal, if it doesn't cause issues then you would be safe to remove the app without issue, but this generally isn't the case with Google apps, messing with those will make the other Google apps fail to start or force close.
Find the versions of the removed apps that are compatible with your device and downloag them on PC then if the device responds to adb you can push the apks to the device and get then reinstalled.
If that doesn't work then download your stock firmware and flash the stock on your device to restore it.

try resetting app preference in application manager this might help
I'm getting this error everytime I try to open the Google Play store. Google Play Movies, News Stand, Music, etc all work fine, but when I try using the Google Play store, I get this error and it kicks me back to the home screen. I've even removed my Google account completely and that didn't do anything. Anyone have any ideas how I can fix this or am I going to have to factory reset my tablet? Thanks.

Try settings>application manager> google play store> clear cache
Maybe clear data too.

I tried that. I even tried installing a different version on Google Play Store and Google Play Services, but I ended up flashing to the Hyperdrive ROM. Everything works fine now, but I wish I would have flashed a newer ROM. This one is based on Kit Kat.
My pet project for reading week was to root my phone for the first time, and I've now been stumbling over errors for around 5 days straight. This is the first time I've hit a wall that I don't think I can just mash random buttons in hoping of getting the order right. Please walk me through this fix like I'm 7 yrs old so I know how to fix things in the future But I need to fix fast as my phone is essential to my work flow, and being able to use the Play Store would be nice.
DEVICE: My phone is a Nexus 5x now running PureNexus.
HISTORY: So to start I unlocked my bootloader, flashed TWRP and have a back up of my Stock ROM as well as a back up of when I finally got PureNexus working if all things go sour. However I'd really love to not reset. When I finally got it working (after like 3 days), I was getting the Error: 497 from the Google Play Store. After fumbling around xda and my settings, I cleared the Data and Cache of Google Play Store and Google Play services apps. Nada. So I show the system apps and cleared the data of the following apps: Google Play services, Google Play Store, Media Storage, Google Services Framework, Download Manager. I then force stopped and disabled Google Play Store. Then I reboot my phone and Uninstalled all the updates on Google Play Store.
(In hindsight, this was all probably WAY overkill ^^^)
Edit: I then successfully re-updated to the newest version via apk. I also tried flashing a copy of Dynamic GApps in hopes that it would fix it.
THE ERROR: Now when I open Google Play Store I get "Error while retrieving information from server. [RH-01]" and it kicks me to the sidepanel, which displays my email but not my Google account. It is now Version: 7.5.08.M-all [0] [PR] 146162341
Any ideas? As far as I can tell, the Error 497 should be fixed because I've totally obliterated all data that could be associated with the app. However, I have no idea how to reinstall Google Play Store because it's the app I use to install things. Thanks for helping! And if I need to re-tag the title of this thread, PLEASE let me know so I can do that.
Hi !
Remove your google account from settings/accounts , reboot your device , add it back , this may be related to a buggy gapps pack you have used , try open gapps micro
Good luck !
Whenever i open play store app on my s8 plus it just crash and message pop up saying that play store has stopped working. I have tried crearing cache, data and reboot. Nothing worked. Any solutions. My s8 plus is running latest android update.
Ive got a similar issue on a Galaxy S8, play store crashes every time I try turning it on unless I clear its cache, then its working as long as its stored in memory. Does anyone know any fix?

I cannot give you a direct answer to your question.
However consider this.?
On my previous devices, think it was Note 3 or Note 4
i had similar issues with Play store.
Trying to install apps but failing.
or Play store "crashing /stop working etc
Eventually i found that the app store crashes
was actually related to Play Services app which is " "linked " Play Store app.
Somehow i had wrong version of Play Services
installed or it somehow got corrupted.
So its just not the Play Store app but other
apps "linked" to it. eg Play Services.
End result
I decided just to do a factory reset
as i was to confused/annoyed
with whole issue, and did not know how to solve it.
