[Completed] Cannot update Google Play Services: Unknown error code: -501 - XDA Assist

I'm not sure if this is a Oneplus One problem or just an android problem in general but I'm having absolutely no luck anywhere and I've tried everything short of a reset so I hope this is ok to post here.
I recently updated to CM12S. I was trying someone's advice of wiping Google Play Services data and re-updating in order to fix a battery bug, but after I reset the data, I get error code -501 in the Play Store when I try to update the app. I've already tried restarting phone, and wiping cache from a bunch of services. I've reinstalled the Play Store, and rebooted multiple times as well.
I tried to install via apk, but it fails and says "App not installed".
Does anyone know what else I could try? Thanks

Hi
There is only one thread helpful for "error 501" and it's for HTC M7 ....You can try the method he used ...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one/help/play-store-installation-error-501-t3015878
Else you can try posting this issue in One Plus One Q/A forums (after signing up on xda)

[Q] [HELP] 403 Google play error, help!

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.

[Q] Error 927, 923 928 495

Hi,
I have a Nexus 5, with Lollipop.
I had an problems with updating a few of my apps in Play store and it gave me Error 495. I initially did not do anything and just restarted the phone and opened Play store and the app updated by itself. Then next day again I had the same error and when this time I tried to restart and update, it did not help. So I searched online and the best way was to clear cache and data from play store and google service framework. I did that. But it did not help. This time it gave error 927.
I did the entire process again and this time it gave me error 923.
So I searched android forums and tried the same steps and every time the error changed from 927 to 923 to 928.
Finally, I did a hard reset. After booting it still did not help and gave me error 927.
So I wiped the cache partition. Still no difference.
I would really appreciate some help on this.
Regards
Anuj
Sir,
Please wait until mods will move this thread to the device specific forum.
Stand by
Good luck
Moved!
Backup ,wipe , flash factory images.
It's just not worth the hassle to go through hours of diagnosis and testing fixes when you can flash factory and restore everything in under an hour.

[Q] [HELP?!] Google Play Services won't update, error "-501"

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)?

Cannot install YouTube update

Hello everyone! So a few days ago I disabled the YouTube app because it was extremely slow. I also cleared the data and cache and uninstalled all of the previous updates. And when I enabled it back on and tried to update the app over the Play Store it gave me this weird error telling me that it cannot install the update. So I went to the troubleshooting site and tried evrything that was suggested but none of it worked. I cannot seem to find a solution to this problem so any help would be appreciated. My phone is not rooted. I'm relatively new to this forum so please excuse me if this thread already exists. Cheers!
Same problem here :/

Unfortunately Google Play Store has stopped

My problem is that this is happening on a very old HTC Sensation, running Android 4.0.3 and that all the help I find online refers to more modern versions.
In Apps / Google Play Store, I forced stop, cleared data and cache, rebooted but it didn't cure the problem
I also performed a factory reset without success.
Someone in the Google Play Help Forum advised me to call the Play support team which I did. They sent me an email, I followed the procedure but it didn't fix anything so they told me to contact HTC if the bug still persisted, which I did a while ago but no reply, so far.

I have solved this problem and I am posting the solution here in case someone else would have the same problem.
I downloaded, installed and ran Lucky Patcher apk file V6.4, for Android 4.0.3,4.0.4 from here https://goo.gl/UqPEDS and it did the trick.
