Hi guys!
Is/has anyone experienced updating of any apps that you know were up to date?
Eg;
Jan 6: Install the latest version of SD Maid
Jan 7: SD Maid is requiring update to Jan 3rd version. After checking, I now have an older version installed than I did the day before.
This kind of thing seems to occur regularly for some reason on both stock and custom ROMs.

Seems more likely a Play Store Account issue to me. Are you restoring app data between roms? Are you restoring app data? _Though it's not an error I'd try wiping Play Store cache etc… if you have not tried it.
Eg

If it's happening with multiple apps & just going back only one rev I doubt it's malware., check apk on virustotal,com or with a virustotal app. Though no guarantee

anyone having problems updating apps in market????
80% of trying to update don work, only sometimes it work.....
Try clearing market data from apps list
sent from my Commodore 64
My Market force-closes everytime i try to install something
Un install updates from market and try again
sent from my Commodore 64
I've uninstalled updates, but same problem I was on previous firmware, rooted & custom theme & had same issue with market since last week. So i updated new formware (latest which is not rootable), but i have still the same problem
I had issues for a day, all settled down now try signing in and out of Google maybe. Not sure what else to suggest
sent from my Commodore 64
Thanks chiefy009, I'll try
Got into my usual workflow in Titanium Backup, and guess I did something I shouldn't have on my Xoom... let it integrate all updated system apps to the ROM.
The 4 listed were Maps, Cordy, DunDef, and MyApps
I don't seem to have any issues with the first 3, but when in the Market, and hitting "My apps" I get force close of My Apps (process com.android.vending)
I have tried clearing cache & data on Market, Market Feedback Agent, Market Updater & My Apps... no help.
Is there any way to get/reinstall the original MyApps with out full a re-flash?
SOLVED: For a non destructive (ie no wipe) fix to my issue...
- First I flashed a root preped HRI66 system.img from roebeet http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=995785 following his instructions.
- Second I re-flashed Tiamat kernal and modules http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=978013
- Third I re-cleared cache for Market and MyApps
- DONE. Working fine again.
do you have at least 2gb of space available

Yeah. 17.9 gb free
I can install new apps from the market, but get weird notifications during download and after install. I would need to go DL something to find the exact messages.. but something like..
"1#% download"
"app already purchased or is still being processed"
"application failed"
Though the apps (a couple free ones) installed and ran fine.
rooted? 3g or wifi?
3g
v3.0.1 - Tiamat v1.3 Kernal - Rooted
do you have your sdcard?
I would just reflash. that would be the only way. if you have working sdcard i would back up all the apps to it
No way to just push that one piece eh? damn.
I figured out a non-destructive way to solve this. I am adding that info to OP in case it will help someone.
all you should have needed to do was simply uninstall the update to My Apps.that's what I did and it fixed the problem

Hi guys, I need some help and advice here. I have my PICO installed with CM11 by galaxyfreak.

I checked on my phone settings > storage, my available internal memory is 3.2GB (ext partition is 4GB). And oh, when i tried to install an app using its apk, i was able to install it.

May be play store is updating. It happens to me too. Let it be for an hour or so and see in Settings>Apps. If its updated you can do whatever you wanted.

thanks @iamrohit7 for ur comment, but i think the issue was regarding the RC1 build particularly on memory side. but my problem is solved already thru this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2673072. thanks to @shubhojit89 for sharing the link =)
Maybe this is a very stupid question but I really have no idea why this problem occurs
My phone (HTC One S Ville mit Resurrection Remix (Android 5.1)) worked perfectly fine until last Friday.
At this date a new update of Telegram Messenger was released. I installed it and while installation of this app my phone did a restart and got stuck in a bootloop.
I restored using TWRP and retried - same problem. I also deleted the app and its data to do a fresh install - bootloop after installation.
Furthermore I noticed the exactly same behavior for the last update of WiGLE. All other apps could be updated to their latest versions without problems.
I used Google Play to update these apps.
What could be a problem for that? Is android just too old to these apps or could there be a collision with something installed on my phone/the ROM? How can I debug this?
I am not an android expert and I am very thankful for any kind of help :')
Thank you! =)
Same Problem with LG G2 mini / Android 6
Hello,
I'm facing the similar problems since a few days. Running Resurrection 6.0.1 on LG G2 Mini.
It started with installing maxdome-app at thursday, last week. Phone went into bootloop.
Wiping and or deinstalling the app in safe-mode did not work. So I restored to an older backup. This worked some time but ran into bootloop after a while ( I do not know what I've done exactly to get into this, this time).
I tried around a little. One part was a fresh install of cyanogenmod 13. This worked some time and I could find out that installing telegramm messenger had the bootloop-effect repeatable.
Sorry for not giving any help to the thread-creator but I hope we can give any more information to each other or anyone else can help?
Right now I am installing apps and backing up all the time to get some half-working system, but better ideas would be appreciated
Good to know that I am not alone
I figured out that there are a few more apps causing the bootloop. Here is a list:
WiGLE Wardriving
Telegram Messenger
pr0gramm.com app
Playstore Changelog (XPosed Module)
Statusbar Download Progress (XPosed Module)
Maxdome
I already updated Xposed Framework, Google Play Services and Google WebView to prevent incompatibilities. Problem still exists.
I updated everything as far as possible and made a backup using TWRP so I can restore my OS at any point. Further you could backup your apps using Titanium Backup. I it worth its price!
I started facing a similar problem of app updates causing bootloops on my device which was running CandySix ROM / 6.0.1. Apps causing bootlooping included Greenify and Nova Launcher. I had another device which has a factory 6.0.1 ROM rooted with Xposed and that device didn't have bootloop issues with these same versions of apps. Fortunately I was able to update the first device to a LineageOS 14.1 7.1.2 ROM and once again continue using the latest version of apps without bootlooping issues - but I never did understand exactly what was causing the bootlooping problem. That was a rather frustrating experience.
When the first bootloop happened, I was updating one single app, so I knew it was probably the one I should roll back to the previous version to fix the problem - so I didn't have to resort to a full TWRP restore.
How did you do a rollback of an app while you are in a bootloop? I would be glad to know that
Unfortunately my Device One S Ville does not get any updates anymore
In my case I can boot to custom recovery/TWRP to delete the app apk from the its /data/app folder - which basically prevents it from running when I reboot the phone. I also use an apk extractor app to save the apk of all apps I install and I also use Titanium Backup - so between those two I have copies of the older apk versions to install. You can also find older apk versions on apkmirror.com.
Depending on the severity of the bootloop, you can also connect your phone to a PC and use adb to disable/uninstall the app causing the problem if you know which one it is.

Thank you for your explanation! This sounds a bit more stressful to me than rather restore via TWRP but could me more time efficient for larger ROMs. I will keep this in mind
Thanks and can confirm that deleting the app folder/apk via twrp can help. I got back into my android 6 again. For me seems more that DavDroid caused it (but Telegram was suspicious, too).
DavDroid mentioned in the last update on 4th November, that they released a workaround against crash and bootloops on some custom roms
Depending on how old your TWRP backup is, restoring from TWRP is an option. But often I have not made a backup in a while or made many recent changes that I didn't want to lose, so the other ways I suggested are more time efficient in some cases.

Upgrade to Android 7
I can add EDS app to the non-working programs.
As far as I could install Telegram (same Version) by downloading .apk I suspect the problem is something depending with playstore. This would explain the many affected apps. But of course I don't know it for sure.
Inspired from divineBliss I upgraded to Android 7 (LineageOS 14.1) and could install everything as I wanted without problems so far. Thanks for that. Looks good, but I will wait some days after I'm convinced.
@-kw: did you try the following link for upgrading to higher android-version?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-one-s/development/7-1-lineage14-1-htc-one-s-ville-t3540981
Glad you were able to update ROMs and escape the bootlooping problem
I have been running LineageOS 14.1 for about a month now without any bootlooping issues due to app updates - so I expect you won't have any issues. I did cause some dread time consuming to resolve bootlooping due to some bad substratum themes, but that's a different issue altogether .

@michibr:
I am very pleased with my Resurrection ROM; but this is stuck on Android 5.1. I will give a new ROM a try when I have the time for that
At this time it seems like this is the only solution of escaping the bootloop-problem
FYI
I updated to Android 7.1 RR and now I can update all my Apps without problems
I am sorry that this is the only solution I can provide, but still better than nothing
Hi all,
I'm having exactly the same problem, it all started with FB, then some other apps.
I had to reboot into Safe Mode to uninstall those apps.
I'm running on cm12.1 and I have my own reason not to upgrade to higher Android.
Am hoping someone can come out with a solution.
For now, here's my list of apps:
- Facebook (Facebook Lite is fine)
- Telegram
- Bluemail
- Local telco app
I am sorry to inform you that I did a lot of research and was not able to find any other solution than upgrading to a higher android.
The problem is with appt2 someone reported it in google's issue tracker and someone from goole descriped it in detail here's it :-
CyanogenMod has this function getPkgName (https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_frameworks_base/blob/cm-13.0/libs/androidfw/AssetManager.cpp). It creates a ResXMLTree on the stack and points it at a buffer from an asset without making a copy. Then it closes the asset before the ResXMLTree is destroyed.
For apps built by aapt, this is benign. However, aapt2 produces UTF-8 string pools, which cause the ResXMLTree's ResStringPool(mStrings)'s mCache to become non-null in ResStringPool::stringAt (https://github.com/CyanogenMod/android_frameworks_base/blob/cm-13.0/libs/androidfw/ResourceTypes.cpp). Then ResStringPool::uninit dereferences mHeader (which is now dangling), and a crash ensues.
This crash shows up in different ways. On one Cyanogen OS device, the launcher crashes when an app built with aapt2 has been installed, but only if the manifest is large (probably due to how deallocation happens for small vs large blobs). On another device, system_server crashes at boot if an aapt2-built app is installed.
We're attempting to work around this with a custom build of aapt2 that always produces a UTF-16 string pool for the manifest. Results so far are promising.
Can this be patched somehow at the OS via xposed for all of the roms that won't get updated?

Is this .zip patch for any device with any Lollipop 5.1.1 ROM?
Because I just installed it and my HTC one X with Resurrection Remix ROM (Lollipop 5.1.1) goes black after the HTC logo.

Hello what is about cm11 kitkat 4.4.4 sameissue but no fix-
could anyone make a fix? Please help.
Anyone know what happened to the popular "App backup and restore" by Trustlook [Apps | Security Labs] in the Google Play Store?
It quit working in 2/22, v6.8.9
Was working in v6.8.3, IIRC.
(App may have been mobi.infolife.appbackup years ago]

v6.8.9 there is the app that is "broken". See user comments there too.
Not sure if an app update caused it, or if an update from my phone manufacturer or carrier broke the app.
Did you update from Android 10 -> 11 Why not sure?
I'm quite sure I used v6.8.3 under Android 11 on my phone.
Updated app to v6.8.9, then there was an update to Android 12 and other security patches.
So, not sure which of those broke the backup system: it won't identify installed apps anymore, and backed-up apps won't restore, so I can't revert to v6.8.3 too.
I have installed a very old v1.6.2, and that works.
related to scoped storage? or caused by abx xml? https://www.cclsolutionsgroup.com/post/android-abx-binary-xml
