Play Store Has Stopped - Samsung Galaxy J7 Questions & Answers

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

Clear the cache & data of 'Play store' & 'Google Services Framework.'
Do update here if it solves the problem.
BTW are you still gonna make some banners for galaxy r users?

Does it show any error or is it just force closing? Try removing ur google account from ur phone. Go to Settings->applications->all->Play store-> Clear Cache. Do a reboot then add the account again. Also check the version of Play store. :fingers-crossed:

Just like cooleagle said above. And if you have a problem with downloading from play webstore (After wiping cache and data,) re-login to Gtalk! It should do the trick. Sometimes you may have to wait a while for effects (half an hour, hour) though.

I am facing the same issue. Download/update simply fails to 'start' for majority of apps such as adobe reader and youtube. However, I can download/updste some apps such as facebook. I had tried clearing dalvik cache and relogin to my google account. But nothing seems to solve it.

Try the method as suggested by cooleagle and m.kochan10
How do I wipe data for play store and google service framework?
settings ->program->all -> navigate to those apps, tap and there you'll fing those options.
Sometimes, if you share SD cards between devices can trigger this problem. Try without a SD to see if this is the cause.
I did the data wipe, and downloads/updates are fine now.
I am again unable to download app updates from market. I again did dalvik cache wipe, and data wipe for google play and google framework service. I am getting error 497. Google search didn't yield anything helpful. Can someone suggest another solution?

Use any task killer/switcher & switch to Google play store which is already running in the background or start it once & then switch to it.
Even if the above doesn't help them click on 'Uninstall Updates' in the by going to Settings => Applications => Mange atop => Google Play app => Uninstall Updates.
Do update here if it helps.
Cheers !
Try making another gmail account for play store . IMO if nothing has worked so far , a hard reset might help but keep a back up of your data before you attempt that.

@cooeagle: thanks for the suggestion. However even this didn't work.
@pulley06: thanks for the suggestion. I am keeping full reset as my last option.

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.

[HELP] I broke my Google Play Store and can't fix it

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

I uninstalled Google Play Services.....

Hi,
I made a mistake I was tired. I wanted to uninstall google play services UPDATE (downgrade) but like a retard I deleted the app instead of the update with titanium backup.
I tried to install a new clean APK with correct dpi etc... but I have google play services has stopped working all the time. all apps who need playservice are not working like google maps. a lot of apps who required location mostly.
I can acces to the playstore but only with a secondary account. main account is not working anymore.
Do I need to install play services differently? Or I'm good to flash a clean firmware with odin?
Thanks.
Try to convert Play Services to a system app and then reboot or if that not works, yes, flash a new firmware.

Are you using a tools for that ?
Or I just copy past the folder ? to /system/app or /system/priv-app ?
thanks for you help
I made a similar mistake trying to install a newer version of play services and got the same behaviour.
Only thing I could do was reflash firmware.
