Google play store app is force closing whenever I try to enter the store.
Google play store is force closing EVEN WHEN I TURN ON THE PHONE, AS SOON AS THE OS BOOTS.
I tried to reflash stock,reinstall recovery and reroot.Result: nothing
I tried the clear data,cache from SETTINGS->APPLICATIONS->MANAGE APPS.Result: nothing
I tried moving2sd/moving back to phone.Result: nothing
I tried to download the googleplay apk and install it.Result: nothing
Does it has something to do with the fact that I removed some bloatware apps(like softwareupdate.apk which runs nonstop and eats RAM) with TitaniumBackup? Is the GooglePlay app inseparable from some bloatware which shouldn't be removed?
Can somebody help me with the proper solution?What else can I try in order to fix this?I have galaxy fit on 2.3.6 stock.
Thanks.
If you're rooted and all I would suggest flashing another version of gapps perhaps or reflashing the same version after wiping cache, and dalvik cache.
Ok, but GAPPS contains GooglePlay plus more google-related apps,right? The thing is that I don't want all that google $hit. I just want Google Play Store.
Thanks
Then u won't b able to use it. coz it basically needs ur account info (which depends on "Google Services Framework" )+other apps. In short, Play Store doesn't run as stand alone app...!!
My play store won't open at all. I've tried everything. It stopped working while changing roms so Here's where I am now, I have Odin back to stock on android 4.0.4. My data/texts/phone works perfectly. But when I hope the store it force closes everytime. I tried clearing app data on all the Google apps still nothing. I tried installing a new apk and that still didn't work. I tried a factory reset and still nothing. I'm all out of ideas please help!

I did try to flash apps and that didn't work. So I tried 're rooting it and flashed a Rom with g apps and still nothing. That's when I Odin back to stock again. Yeah I also tried clearing the app data on both....still nothing....I'm stumped.

Give this a try, download this http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23134718111254196 ,unzip then flash the file with Odin.
Alright so i flashed the file above and now the play store opens but it says "No connection" even though i have 4G and wifi. I tried a fresh factory reset and still stuck at the No connection screen......any ideas?

1) Did you add your google account?
2) Kick start by clear data and cache for playservice and google service framework, reboot phone, once it's up, open your browser to verify internet is working, then reopen play store.

OK,
1) have to try with 4g instead of wifi?
2) so right now your phone is running pure stock ROM with no third party apps on it right? if it's, please try another google account. Remove the old one first, or if you don't have one try to sign into google to see if your account is still good. Do it a few times (login and out).
3)Check the following apps:
google play store 4.5.10
google play service 4.0.34
google sevice framework 4.3.757479
clear cache and data for all of them, then uninstall google play store, reboot phone, wait for it to update, once updated reboot then try again.

Seems like the play store apps are outdated and your phone should update automatically once it's online. You need to side load the apps from here: http://www.mediafire.com/download/20hi0n6b2876080/4510 and 4034.rar unzip then try the 4.0.34 first, reboot, see if update the rest, if still not working install the second one 4.5.10. They are apk, so just install like an app.

Do you have the option to uninstall google play store? if you do, clear data, uninstall, stop the service, then open play see if that work. Usually this issue happened to custom rom only, not stock rom, and also with hyper drive rom, where it left residual to the host file.

OK..let take a step back, it's possible that you need to reflash. Do a factory reset, power off, put into download mode then Odin reflash the full stock factory file. Once it boot up let it sit for 5 min before going through the setup.

Hi XDA,
I noticed on APKMirror that a new version of the Google Play Store was released (5.10.29/30), so I tried to install them, which all went with no problems.
Than I tried to update an app in the Play Store, when after clicking the "Update" button my Google Play Store immediately crashed.
Alright, I removed Google Play Store using Titanium Backup, this might be the biggest mistake of them all (I must have used to "remove updates" from the Settings > Apps menu)
After removing 5.10.29/30 I decided to install 5.9.12 again, because that one was working fine for me.
Installed that, hit the Google Play Store, smacked the Update All button, and boom, crashed again.
At this point I went to Settings > Apps > Google Play Store > Remove all Data
Went to the Store again, update all, crash...
I have also wiped my Download Manager Data
Also I disabled AdAway, since some hosts file might mess with it...
Ok, I have a Xposed Module "PlayPermissionsExposed", disabled that, reboot, try again, still crash...
Tried wiping the data of the Google Play Store again... Nope...
The Play Store gets as far as;
Opening the Play Store
Accepting the App Permissions
Downloading.... CRASH
And, after this crash, I can't even open the Play Store anymore, just gives me a force-close.
I really hope someone can help me to fix this issue, since I really don't feel like reinstalling my device again.
Talking about my device, I am using:
Samsung Galaxy S4 I9505
Rom: Google Play Edition by danvdh
who even needs to google play store when you have apkmirror

just boot into recovery, wipe cache and dalvic, then flash the gapps you used when flashing the rom. dont wipe any data!.
if that doesnt work, try flashing the rom too. worst case you might loose any mods you made to the system, but data will be fine as long as you dont wipe it.

Thank you, my ROM did not came with a flashable gapps package, so I just wiped only the Dalvik cache.
Too bad, that did not solve the issue...
I am re-flashing my rom right now, without wiping anything, hope that solved the issue, will report back later
Hello everyone,
I have an issue, uninstalled the play store app completely from the system and downloaded the most recent one from an XDA thread. After re-installing it does not work. It says (Unfortunately, Google Play Store has stopped working). Now I've tried some method like clearing the cache and data from both the play store and google play services. I also did a factory reset using TWRP, everything is back to normal except the play store app which did not installed by itself but I had to re download it fro XDA. How can i fix the app so I can use it again? Could it be that is not working cause is not in the system folder anymore? if so how can I put the app back there? Thank you in advance for any help you may give me. :fingers-crossed:

What I did was reinstall gapps
Flash arm 5.1 and full package, you can uninstall the unwanted apps with rom manager or something
Hi, since I upgraded to Nougat (NTX AL10) Im having problems with Google Play: When I try to update apps or when I try to install a new app, google play doesnt work, stays in "downloading..." indefinitly, and I need to restart the phone to complete these operation.
I tried uninstalling google play, clearing memory cache, giving permissions, and nothing works.
Thanks
