Cannot update Google Play Services: Unknown error code: -501 - ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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

[Q] Google Play error

Well for whatever reason, I'm running the Gummy Nexus ICS ROM, and I'm getting an error with the new Google Play market app whenever I attempt to download an app. I got online with my phone connected via USB and it worked fine when downloading apps from the marketplace online. Just wondering if anyone else has encountered this error and if there's a solution.
It helps if you state which error "this error" is. Also, state what fixes you've tried and what the results were. Did you try clearing Market data? Tried uninstalling Market updates?
Yes I tried both. It just says "(application) could not be downloaded due to an error. (-101)"
It also says sign into Google wallet online
sent from my so icey ns4G

hi, try clear data an cache on settings > apps > choose tab all > play store
hope this help

[Q] Play Store keeps force closing

Last night I was trying to root and flash a custom rom to my tablet, I wasn't able to finish flashing the rom because I noticed Google Play Store wasn't opening. I couldn't download Rom Manager or any other apps for that matter. I was doing everything I could from clearing the cache, data, even wiping the data and cash in the fastboot mode and flashing another GApps to the tablet. Everything I've tried won't get me anywhere. It tells me to log in with an account, then immediately says: The application Google Play Store (process com.android.vending) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again. I did try flashing a rom through fastboot mode, even though it didn't do anything, so I thought this might be the problem? I haven't tried anything else yet. Any help is appreciated.
EDIT: I have the SCH-i815 verizon 4G LTE tablet on stock android 3.2. It is rooted.
EDIT 2: I also noticed that Google Maps and other such apps are no longer on my device. I noticed that Google Services Framework (not sure of words) are on my other devices but not on this one. I tried going into the check for system update settings and it crashed giving me almost the same message as the Google Play Store crash force close message

I recall having FC issues with previous tabs. Repaired by Fixing Permissions in CWM.
HTH
Hi there,
If anyone still encountering FC/not dowloading apps for Playstore or market, it might also be the cause of new partition or something like that, you can try this another option freely other than fixing permission of vending.apk on /system/app/..
This might help you guys .
1. check if cache folder has "download" folder inside it, if it no download folder then create one inside /cache, e.g. mkdir /cache/download.
2. then chmod the /cache folder to 777, also make sure the com.android.vending folder is present inside /data/data/ folder.
3. You can achive it through shell terminal.
Hope this helps you guys fix the FC(Force close or not downloading apps on playstore or market).
Hit thanks if it helps.
Thanks

[Q] Error RPC:S-7:AEC-7

Has anyone ever gotten this error RPC:S-7:AEC-7 while trying to download apps in the Play Store and fixed it? I have tried everything, wiping cache, factory reset, install different GAPS, create a new google account. But NOTHING is working for me. Someone please tell me you have fixed this before!
Thanks,
Caleb
EDIT: FIXED
-Go to Settings->Applications->Manage Applications->All
-Select "Clear Data" for Google Play Services and Google Service Framework
-Reboot the device
That should be it, it is working fine for me now.
I did it without unlinking my google account and it went well.
Thanks
I got this after doing a dalvik cache clear. Same in a few google accounts. Uninstalled updates to google play store and restarted phone and it was fine.

Thanks bro. It worked well for me too - CM12 / LLP
Halp! I can't erase the account. There's no "Remove/delete" account. I even flashed it and NOTHING.
Thanks, it works!
OP, you might want to edit your fix/solution. I don't think the step instructing you to remove and restore your google account is necessary.

Agreed. I also did it without unlinking google. Just clear data on both applications and restarted.
I have been getting this error for days now. Before this I would get the "this method of payment had been declined" for my google play credits for several months Jo matter what app I wanted to buy. Now with the error retrieving info from server I'm starting to get really pissed off.
I've tried it on different Roms, different phones, uninstalled updates to play store, cleared data on it and play services. It doesn't work no matter what I try. I want to be able to purchase apps, I've missed sales on apps because I get some stupid error. I'm at wits end please help me find a solution. I
Thanks. Works perfectly.

I have recompressed Play Store and Play Services for smaller size and disabled some Play services and getting this error. Curious what exactly causing this. On Lollipop it worked fine.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!

Google play store not working

Hi Guys,
I am using GT-S7262 with Android v4.1.2 . The phone is not rooted. Last month Google Play stopped working all of a sudden. Whenever I used to open it, I would get an error cannot connect to internet. After sometime the error changed to Error Retrieving Information from Server RH-01. I cleared data, cache and uninstalled all the updates but it didn't help. I even cleared data of Google Services framework and force stopped it, even removed the google account. Cleared data of apps such as play store, play services and rebooted the phone but it din't work. Even signing out and again signing in didn't work. I was getting this error in the Android System Recovery
http://oi65.tinypic.com/24lu6nt.jpg
So, I formatted my phone and the default Play Store version is opening but when I click on download any app I get this error "ABCD" could not downloaded due to an error. (Error retrieving information from server. [DF-DLA-15]). What should I do now?
Thanks

problem with reinstalling Google play Store

My Huawei mate 8 (latest firmware NXT-AL10 8.0.0.839) was purchased in China. I had no problem installing Google services without root. 2 days ago I could not connect to the play store anymore. I had a server error. After 2 days I thought it probably did not come from the server. I looked on the net and followed tutorials. I tried to clear the cache and data, delete my google account and put it back. Nothing works. After uninstalling Play Store, I wanted to reinstall it impossible . Whatever the version, I have this message: the system failed to install the package because it tries an authorization that it is already by some packages (in adb it does not work either). For info, all other applications google can be reinstalled without problems and I have no problem to create a Google account in the settings.
I figured if I redo the whole procedure using GSMinstaller, it should work. Big mistake, Unable to uninstall Google Play Services. The procedure stops there.
For info the application GoogleInstaller (version 2 or 3) does not work either. I have this message: "System failed to install the package because it tries an authorization that is already by some packages
So back to square one. How to reinstall the Play Store? I would like to avoid doing a factory restore because I'm not sure that on Emui_8, GSMinstaller works.
Waiting for your answers
Thank you and good day
