I'm on the original shield (NOT the tablet, k?)
Okay...I accidentally installed some idiotic Amazon App store. So after uninstalling it, I got a connection error for my play services.
I fixed that by editing a host file (common fix for us rooted Nvidia shield owners).
So far...so good.
But even though everything is working for the most part, my NEW PROBLEM is that anytime I try to download ANYTHING from the google play store, it will crash on me saying "unfortunately, playstore stopped..."
I think the problem COULD BE when I mistakenly deleted the google play store and reinstalled it, the reinstalled version isn't right for the shield.
Maybe I could be wrong but I think the shield uses a modified version of the google play store just FOR the shield. So maybe I have a version that doesn't quite sync with it.
I'm on kitkat...thorougly annoyed... *sigh*
Any help here?
Could someone post a link to a (or upload a version of) the stock Nvidia shield google play store app for me?
Like I said, in my naivety I deleted the google play store app and re-installed a newer/different version (I think) that doesn't play right with the shield. version 4.9.13 is the one I have, I got it online. And I don't think it plays well with the shield.
I already cleared the cache, logged out of ALL accounts, rebooted and blah, blah, blah.... and again, I'm on a rooted shield, etc.
Not sure what I'm missing here. Anyone here had a similar experience/dilemma? Any help would me MUCH appreciated.
Cheers!

I seem to be having this strange issue with google market.
if I go to my apps, I only (according to play store) 1 app installed which is nit the case. Secondly, play store seems to think I have never purchased an app, eg, I have purchased titanium back up pro, but the store is yet again asking me to buy it at 4.99 where as it would usualy state 'purchased' and download. Secondly on trying to repurchase it states there was an error with the wallet, i then receive 2 emails a charge mail, and a refund message.
when i log in to the the play store on the web, it clearly shows apps that i have purchased in my account history with no price and the word 'purchased' but if I navigate manually, using search, it will state a price and ask me to pay
also i am using the same google account, i only have one.
below is an image of the error
Same problem, after cleaning cache problem disappears with bringing new one, f*&king blank page! No installed apps nor purchased asking me to buy it again. "All apps" tab is empty too. Damn wtf is wrong lol..
what rom are you using buddy?
I have the same problem.
The Google Play Market support could not help yet.
I think it does not matter what ROM on phone, this is a google play bug.
Yea i suppose, but looking on google play, its not under any known issues :/ looks like it may be a while before its fixed.
I contacted the customer support.
They could not solve the problem yet
it seems that the lost connection between Google account and purchased apps.
I sent some screenshots in Google Play support and I hope that the problem will be solved.
I advise you to contact Google Play support: [email protected]
I think if there is a lot of posts about this issue, it will speed up the solution
phew glad to see I"m not the only one. I'm hit with this as well on THREE different androids (one of whom is stock unrooted so its not my fault rofl).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=24058132
I have also realized I am not getting application updates. its rare I go 3 days without a single update, maybe its because it thinks I have not purchased any apps lol
Any chances that your phone market local data is not yet synced properly with the google play ? I have seen that my apps (free or paid) is not listed out immediately right after I do a full wipe or flash a new rom with full wipe. But it will eventually show up itself after awhile with data/wifi connections. I personally didn't know how long it required to sync back but eventually they will appear back when I access the market again after I restored my personal data back.
By the way, did you guys try to check your account and performs a manual market sync in the Account settings section ?
yes yes and yes we've tried all the normal market fixes, downgraded market, uninstalled updates etc.
This issue is visible on multiple droids I own (including one unrooted stock) and on web market as well, its definitely server side
I'll check in on this thread too lol. I'm in exactly the same position. No response from google.

It seems not the same problem. This is another google play problem...
This discussion about the problem when the purchased app not in app-list when I trying to download&install app, google play say that the app is not bought.
Google Play thinks I have not purchased any apps.
I noticed that going to play.google.com and trying to install apps that way would give me errors. Trying to view my apps would have a page error. All my apps on my phone are gone, but my tablet has them oddly. Weird!

I have them on my phone and not my tablet! I think it might be related to market version whether or not they disappear device side. Can only assume the newest versions of market/store download the list from the server, rather than locally. Play.google.com doesn't work for me either.

I am also having the same problem after updating to OrDroid 1.7.5 from 1.7.3 hope this is fixed soon so I can install my apps from my backup.
I'm also have issues with my Galaxy S2 and Xoom
Same problem here with my Defy. I'm on CM7.2 Nightly build.
Just started having this problem a few moments ago on my Xoom. Cannot install any apps from the play market from my PC and keep getting server error when trying to access my apps on my xoom. Not checked my Galaxy S II yet... maybe a problem with Google?
Just wanted to put this out there somewhere maybe it will help someone.
I recently purchased an Ematic FunTab Pro from Walmart.com and was able to install Google Play store by simply loading an older market.apk file.
All of the other Google Framework was already on this tablet.
Unfortunately the tablet I received had a damaged screen so I had to return it but wanted to let everyone know that it should be very possible to add Google Play to this tablet.
how do you load google play?
Hello,

I just searched it on Google. Just type something like "Google play store apk". I've got it installed on my little brother's fun tab pro but I can't figure out how to get it to work. It keeps force closing whenever I open it or when I try to install an app with it. I heard the Google framework doesn't come with the tablet, how did that other guy have the framework already there? Any help would be appreciated but I'm going to try a few more things to see if I can get it to work too. Thanks.
Same problem here, I bought two of them for my boys. Tryin to figure it out. I'm able to side load app from random websits. I'm not a big fan of that though.
I'm just using the slideme market for now. Its better than the broken app stores preinstalled
These things are horrible, nothing works, apps crash. I consider myself an advanced android user and this is pathetic. Im getting a headache. Were returning them back to Walmart later.
My solution:
Download APK extractor and Wifi file transfer (wifi transfer app optional) with registered android device.
Download desired apps to registered Android device.
Use APK extractor to extract app (no root needed)
Either use wifi transfer (wireless and more convenient) or use PC to transfer APK files to FunTab. (Files can be found in the "APKextractor" folder from registered android device and move them to to the desired folder in the FunTab ) detach from computer.
Install APK on fun tab using stock file browser
Thank me and enjoy.

Ematic Funtab 7" tablet
My sister bought this tablet for my 2 year old son for christmas he loves it but it would be nice if I can install Netflix on his tab so he can watch SuperWhy and YoGABA GABA and all that kiddie stuff he likes.
I'm trying to install the Google Play APK and Netflix APK the apps try to launch but they don't open, and they crash.
I read somewhere that I would have to send the tab to Ematic and they have to remove a "lock" so I can install all this stuff. From my understanding Zoodles causes this "lock" and it tricks the tab into thinking the outsourced apps are outdated and cannot launch.
I imagine that this so-called "lock" is just having to root this device.
Has anyone tried rooting it? He just received it, yesterday, I would hate to send it to Ematic just so they can root it.
Help?:laugh:
Google Play Store
I have a Yuntab S4 running 4.2.1 Android which has BIG problem downloading Google Play & any other aps from this store...Do you have a URL for the mentioned "older market.apk" file? Thanks!
So I updated to the 4.4 Play Store and now when I try to use Hangouts its says "Google Play Services needs to be updated or may not be supported by your device." I tried wiping the apps data/cache but still have issue. Anyone else having this problem? Is the new version of the store the problem? if so where can I get the old version back?
EDIT* So I advanced restored system backup with the older version of the store and its still not working. Also Google Now, Play Games, are giving me the same error message. Says google play services are not supported by my device, contact manufacturer. Hangouts isnt a big deal cuz I dont use it much but I use Google now all the time.
Edit 2* I restored a full back up from a few days ago and now the issue is gone. Very strange. I would still like to know why this happened or what caused the issue. Weird cuz the back up has the 4.4 store still installed.
Having this issue too

I found out it was due to flashing the Inverted themed Play Store. The OP of the mod said it happens to some but not all. Haven't had any problems since.
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:
So, I have a TF101 that I had rooted and played around with.. tried kitkat, ICS, etc... Now I have something else, and I want to give this tablet to someone else.. but I want it to be unrooted, stock rom. So, I flashed it back to factory and reset it. The needs of the next user are extremely simple, so stock should work fine...
...however, I can't get Google Play Store to work at all. I've done much research, and some say to just wait 3+ days for google play services to update itself, etc. no dice... I left it plugged in and running, checking each day to ensure it was still connected to wifi so that it could do whatever it needed to do. Nope. I found a thread on another webforum where someone described the exact problem, then at the end he said "problem solved, thank you" without actually describing what happened. Sad. sigh.
I've noticed that google play services isn't even on the stock firmware. instead, it's called google play framework. Perhaps that's part of the problem? I dunno.
I tried downloading the most recent version of google play services and manually installing the APK, but that didn't work either, google play store keeps crashing. Perhaps I need to also download a few more APK's go go along with it, but I need help identifying what is current.. or at least, I need to identify one recent enough that it can then update it self to current.
So.. I'm stuck. Can someone point me in the right direction to try to bring this fully STOCK TF101 up to at LEAST a version of google play store that works? APKs? tweaks?
Flashing to a custom rom is my LAST resort. I don't need any help doing that.. but I want to try to make Stock work again first.
BTW, that original Youtube app from stock all those years ago... it was pretty cool looking now I'm stuck with it.

This will put it back to factory new condition and remove Root.
Sorry if I wasn't clear. I have successfully flashed the unit back to stock rom and completely wiped and reset to factory. then I turned it on, and google play store won't run. I want to install apps normally.

I had the same problem.
I found the newest playstore on internet and installed it.
Then I had no problems anymore.
That seems to have worked! I had assumed I would need to update google play services first, but apparely I just needed a new Google Play Store APK. I found one that works here: http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google...google-play-store-6-0-7-android-apk-download/
I downloaded the APK and ran it, and the play store now runs and is updating all other apps on the old TF101. Sweet.
Dunno if Google Play Framework will automatically replace itself with Google Play Services or what, but I'll keep an eye out for that.
Just to followup and close this topic... The tablet is now up and running with multiple apps from the play store, and my wife is now using it to read kindle books and mess with her nursing app. I was planning to give it to her mother, but she intercepted it when it started working
So, basically - if you want to go back to stock firmware - flash to stock, factory reset, then download and install current playstore (as per link above) and don't worry about Google Play Services, it will sort itself out.
