Hello awesome people at xda forums!
I had my N5 for about 2 weeks now, for the first week i've used stock, but i had to try som new roms/kernels so i installed cataclysm rom with franco kernel. I had no problems everything worked great, and google play worked. On my old phone i had xposed framework, and a few modules. I've downloaded it on my N5 and got "keepchat, bootmanger, greenify and gravitybox. Everything still worked great, i used some of the features with gravitybox and enabled some feature where i had to reboot my phone. Something i about statusbar, not really sure though. I've hot rebooted, and my phone kept crashing "system ui crashed" and i tried normal reboot, still crashing. I've factory reset with twrp and used a stock 4.4.2 backup i had, and i was about to download busybox then i got some errors. I think i got a 920 error at first, I've searched the whole web and found a solution. (Or i thought i did) Then it gave me a 403 error, I've spent my whole day trying to find a solution, but could not find any. Heres what I've tried:
Reboot phone. *same issue*
Wipe cache and data from google play, then reboot. *same issue*
Sign out of google account, then wipe cache and data from google play and google services framework, then reboot and sign in. *same issue*
Make a new google account and use it to download apps. *same issue*
Wipe dalvik cache and cache from twrp. *same issue*
Install a update for google play *same issue*
Check for proxy, had none.
I think my APN is fine, not sure though.
I've mixed some of the options above, but still with the same stupid error "403"
My question is, is my N5 bricked? If not, is there a solution to this problem?
Best regards,
Kristoffer
If your phone turns on in any capacity, it's not bricked. That term is only supposed to be used when your phone is rendered completely useless and turned into a paperweight or wait for it.... a brick.
If I were in your shoes I would just flash the factory image from Google and start over again. That'll get you back on your feet.

Disregard my previous post. I just read an article that says apparently everyone is having play store issues today and getting the 403 error.

Hi, I have a Nexus 5, completely stock 4.4.2, never tampered
Whenever there are multiple updates in the Play Store and I press "Update", the first app updates, then the second one starts downloading,
but the download hangs at some point, then after a few seconds the entire Play Store app closes without any message.
After that I can open the Play Store again and try to update the apps, but they only update one at a time, because on the second update it always crashes.
All the Google apps are at the latest versions, Play Store has version 4.6.17. This is happening for a while now, but I can't pinpoint it to a certain version of the Play Store app, but in the past I did not have this problem.
I've tried restarting the device, clearing data and cache for the Play Store app, clearing the cached data for the entire system, even switching the runtime (btw the problem is happening on both Dalvik and ART), but nothing helped. I also have enough Available space: 4 GB as reported in Settings/Storage.
On my wife's Nexus 4, also completely stock and with updated Google apps, the problem it's not happening, so it's not something in my environment.
Did anyone else have this problem? I searched the forums but found nothing relevant.
Any advice?
Thank you.
Hello,
Clear Playstore's app data and cache and reconnect your google account as see whether the problem persists?
Already did that, I said in my post, did not help.
Can anyone provide any advice? Thanks.

Hi
I have the exact same problem on my galaxy note 3 so nothing to add except that I tried a little trick that allows it to finish the updates without having to restart the store. I close it immediately after the batch download starts and then it continues updating in the background. it works most of the times but not always. I really wish someone had a solution to this problem.

Did you by any chance ever went into the recovery and tried clearing the cache from there?

Yes, I cleared cache and Dalvik from custom recovery. I did a lot of searching on google and XDA and I followed all the guides, including uninstalling play store updates, clear data and cache from apps manager for play store and also Google services framework and download manager but no improvement
Im in the same boat as you on this one.

Are you rooted? What custom recovery are you using? I myself am all stock, never rooted or anything.
And how long does it take to clear the cache from recovery? On my Nexus 5 with stock recovery it takes very long, around 5 or 10 minutes the first time I do it in succession, but it finishes succesfully. If I repeat the clearing of cache without rebooting then it takes a few seconds, like normal.
I read somewhere that it might be an issue with errors on the cache partition and that reformatting this partition might solve it, but I cannot do it from the stock recovery. Maybe if you have the option of reformatting the /cache partition in your custom recovery you should try it.
Another thing that you can do is try to catch the errors with logcat, if you have root you can use an app, I used adb to save a logcat and found some error messages related to the installing of apps but could not find how to solve them. I will post the logcat later.
If you can get a logcat maybe you can post it and we will compare the errors.

Rooted? Custom recovery?

Yes I am rooted using CWM Based Recovery 6.0.4.7 with SuperSU 1.94 and BusyBox 1.22.1-Stericson on stock Samsung firmware Android 4.4.2 NB4 unbranded
clearing the cache from CWM recovery only takes a few seconds in my case. I did not try reformatting or anything else because I don't want to risk bricking it.
I will post a logcat as soon as I know how to do it.
Yup to both. Wipe was very fast... Almost too fast in my opinion

Might try TWRP to see if it helps

Has anyone found the solution yet? no way to update all apps at once. this is driving me crazy especially when there are many apps to update
I'm also experiencing this behavior as well.

I have the same issue. Stock rooted...
I don't have a nexus but I was using a google edition ported ROM for my HTC One and was having the same issue drive me nuts. I flashed the stock sense ROM back and the store works fine now. It seems like this problem is google edition devices/OS. I never found a fix though, except to enable automatic updating so it happens in the background. That worked for me
indeed the updates work fine in the background but I would really like to know what causes this issue
Those having this problem can you guys make sure you have the latest Google Play build? Latest is 4.8.20. Go to your play store, go to play store settings and at the bottom it should say 4.8.20. If your version is earlier than that, tap the build version and it should say there's a newer version and that it's installing. At that point, exit from the play store app, and give it a minute or two. Enter back into the play store app, and you repeat the steps to see that you have upgraded your play store build.

Yes, the Play Store app is updated to the latest version. Now I already got the 4.4.3 update, but the issue is still appearing, but not everytime. I think it depends on the sizes of the updating apps, it might be something related to the cache partition. Can you guys try and clear the cache from the recovery and see how much it lasts? For me it lasts more than 5 minutes and it doesn't seem normal.

I had the same issue on my S4. After the play store closed about 5 times today when updating apps I decided to Google it. I found someone with a similar issue, and their fix was to enable the Download Manager app, that had somehow been disabled. Mine was already enabled, but I cleared the cache from that app, and then I was able to update my remaining 5 or so apps with no crashes.
I'm not sure how permanent of a fix it is, but it's working so far. Don't know if I'll have to clear it again later or not.
Hi
Today as many times in the past I can't access the forum using Tapatalk app from either my Nexus 6 running latest Pure Nexus build with Marshmallow or my LG G Pad 8.3 runnig official Rom with 4.44. In the past clearing the apps cache and/or data solved the problem but today nothing helps, I keep getting login net_config error
Some while ago I created Tapatalk account signed in using G+ and in the past clearing data caused program to ask for username and password but today even after clearing data and cache, uninstalling the app, rebooting the phone, re-installing the app and adding xda-developers site it trying to login without asking me for the username and password and if you tap on me icon on the bottom right corner it shows the profile screen with sign out option. Tried several different 5.2 and 5.3 versions with the same result. Have no clue where it takes login info.
Any help is appreciated

Hi and thank you for using XDA Assist
Yeah you're not the only one, it happens also in my case. But i think it will be solved, it is just temporary and it's not an XDA problem but a tapatalk one.

Are you using a cm12.1 nightly? If so, what gapps have you flashed? These sort of problems are usually solved by a clean flash (wipe system, data, caches, reflash rom and gapps).
