Somehow I've managed to completely delete the google store app off my sony niro, with ICS. This means that i cant upgrade or install any apps from that site! Vodafone, my provider, have suggested that I back everything up and then do a factory reset which will nuke everything on the phone and leaving me to re-install everything afterwards. Ouch!
Can anyone suggest how i can get it back without doing the factory reset please? I cant install their 'PC Companion' software to do it with as I'm using Debian 7.
Thanks
Sharon.
Are you rooted with a custom recovery? Do you have a copy in Titanium Backup?
If not, rooting and either flashing it or pushing it somehow might work. I'm thinking like how you'd flash GAPPs normally with a new ROM.
I'm not sure about specifics for your phone, though.

If your rooted you can use this patched version, it works great for me.

Right, new google store app downloaded and installed, rebooted, cleared cache and all stored data and run it. It shows that i have 12+ updates to get, so i start downloading them and it crashes! Just says that 'google store has stopped'! Try again and the same thing happens, so I'll let it fully charge and take it off the charge cord and try again.
But its looking hopeful, thanks.
Sharon.
Full charge now done so I've had a chance to play with it. With all cache and data deleted, it still crashes before you get the little checkbox asking you to agree to googles term and conditions. It doesn't show in 'titanium backup' under 'google store' or 'play store', and neither does it show in 'ROM Toolbox Pro' of downloaded apps, installed apps, or backupped apps. Its as if it doesn't exist!
I'm now at a loss as to what to do next, any ideas please?
Hopefully thanks
Sharon.
If you are on a custom ROM, you could try flashing the applicable Gapps package, as stated above....if not then I'm thinking the factory reset would be next step, as much as a pain that it is.
Just backup and reset

So I recently installed market unlocker and all was working fine. However when I went to set my market back to my default one I could no longer connect to the play store no matter what I try. I have tried wiping the cache and every thing I even re-installed Gapps and still nothing. Anyone know how to fix this problem?
Have you tried to Uninstall market unlocker to at least regain access to the play store?

Do you install Freedom in your device? Most of the time that problem is causes by Freedom apps.
Freedom did that to me
I've had this problem a few times when using freedom app. Solution for me was to uninstall freedom app, clear data from play store and reflash gapps and it went back to normal. If you want to continue using freedom app you just have to stop it Everytime your done using it

My freedom app and market unlocker don't play nice on kitkat using art on my tf300t don't know if your using a 4.4 ROM but I believe market unlocker still hasn't made support for it
I've never had any problems with Market Unlocker nor the Freedom app o.o If you've used the Freedom app what I would do is reinstall Market Unlocker, reinstall Freedom, start the service, stop the service, uninstall Freedom, restart, then try changing to default market, then uninstall Market Unlocker
Hello, I keep having this problem for a week. Could you please tell me how to fix it? I am using a p905 note pro lte internatonal sim lock free, unrooted device. Thanks

try and uninstall it and re-install if you are able.. something could have gotten screwy ... also.. a lot of the google apps tend to sometimes have issues after updates.. you could just try and uinstall the most recent update and see if it still occurs..

I cannot uninstall the app. there is no such option. i uninstalled update and this error message shows up non-stop.
keep having the problem the entire day. what can I do? thanks
I uninstalled updates and the error shows up like craxy. Then, I went to playstore to reinstall update. Still get the error shown on the topic. Is there anything that I could do besides a factory reset?

are you rooted?if you are, you can use Titanium Backup to uninstall the app (think you might have to buy the pro if you dont have in order to mess with system apps, but if you dont own and are rooted, 1 of the few apps very worth buying).
if you do this, then you can go and reinstall from playstore as a fresh install..
if those don't work, then factory reset/odin back to stock may be needed..
also, if rooted you could try using a rom and flash that as an option..
My device is not rooted. Is there a way to solve the problem without rooting?
Only other thing I'd try prior to a factory reset would be to remove your google account information and then add it back in (settings - general - accounts). This may reset GAPPS (google apps) to the point where maps works again.
Did you by any chance delete or deactivate several Google processes? Like Google Services?
Hey guys,
I have a Samsung Galaxy SIII GT-19300 8GB running on Anroid 4.3, rooted and custom ROM Manager installed. Recently all Google Play services have stopped working. I literally can't do anything. I can' t log in, can't use Youtube, can't open the Play store because it gives me the No connection- retry error, of course. I heard it was because of Freedom. I deleted the app and tried to re-install it... but I cannot even install apk files; not any kind of apk file. I tried to force-install it with an android terminal, but that doesn't work either. Aptoide also does not want to install anything. I basically deleted the cache for every google app & I uninstalled all updates; but all in vain. Nothing seems to work except for Whatsapp and the actual internet browser. Please help me, I really need my phone to work properly.
Thanks in advance, any kind of help is appreciated

Reflash Stock ROM via Odin (you wont lost anything on internal storage) or try flash any gapps for 4.x.x via custom recovery.

Download your stock ROM. Put it in your pc and then flash it using Odin.
U may also need to flash gapps using your custom recovery.

Ok. You have got the answer in this thread
But before that just try to do a factory data reset
If you have some important data, take a nandroid backup
And then do a factory data reset
And I may be a foolish in this but I am considering it because everything may be possible here, enable the background data if it is disable

Well, okay, I guess that's my only option, I have reflashed the Stock ROM and that hasn't fixed my problem either. Factory data reset it will be. I'll come back to you whenever I have done the data reset. I really hope this'll fix the problem, because I don't want to do a factory data reset at all. :/
Hey Folks!
You're literally my last hope! I've made a mistake - a huge one.
Long story:
My keyboard kept disappearing so I thought "Hey, if I uninstall the Play services update, it should run smoother!" Well, it did. And then all the trouble began. I couldn't use most of my Google apps anymore, so I convinced myself to update to version 7.0, again. But hello! Error "-501" was and still is in the way! So I searched Google for an answer, but nothing helpful. I tried installing a downloaded apk, but it wouldn't install it. *Sigh*
Short story:
I uninstalled the Play Services app to version 6.7, but the Google Apps didn't think of that as funny... So I tried installing it again, but it didn't work. I deleted the cache of almost every Google related app, plus the data, but nothing was helping. Error "-501" just keeps popping up!
I'd like not to do a factory reset or root my phone. If there's a more convenient way, please tell me.
Regards,
Jeffrey
You'll likely have to factory reset.
What Android version are you on, and what modifications do you have (if applicable)?
