Recently, as I install an app, I'm finding it to take a long time...several minutes.
I just selected Truecaller from the Play Store to install. It's a small app. It moved from the downloading stage to installing, maybe 5 minutes before I started this thread, and is still in installing mode now. Another interesting thing, it does NOT show it installing in the notifications bar.
I've had this happen with other apps as well.
Anyone else experiencing this?

Try clearing cache and data of the play store, in Settings - Apps. Sometimes it just 'hangs'. Canceling and Install again can fix it too.

After i just did my first cold boot i have some wierd issues. I dont know if cold boot is the source of this, but it's the only thing i can think of, it happened right after.
First thing i noticed was that gallery stopped working, and this happens every time i start it. Then i notice PlayStore tries to update apps but stops at the "downloading" part.
Rebooting doesnt help, so i tried another cold boot with no luck.
Any suggestions?
Hmm downloading a new app doesnt work either, just stops at the "downloading" part again, so its not just when updating apps. Seems like my tablet doesnt like recieving data from the play store anymore.
Anyone?
Try clearing the cache and data for the playstore app. Then temporily disable autoupdate in the playstore. I think its overwhelming the tablet.
Try updating a few at a time. Do the Chrome update by itself, doesn't seem to like other updates going at the same time.

I solved the problem. It wasn't the cold boot that caused this, it seems disabling ALL the preinstalled apps from asus is not a good idea. Once i reenabled them, the problems with gallery and playstore were fixed.
Doh Feel stupid much? Yep
Hey guys, since rooting my Ultra I have noticed that I have two particular apps force close...one is the Play Store, it just randomly force closes and once it does it won't stop and then I am forced to reboot the phone in order for it to work but surely enough it just randomly happens again.
Also I have a problem with what I believe is the phone app force closing and this too seems to be at random. Both force closes don't seem to have a specific trigger... I'll just unlock the phone and boom FC or I'm browsing the forums and BOOM FC.
All I've done was root the phone, freeze the amazon apps (sometimes I delete them) and then I also remove or freeze all Verizon apps minus My Verizon...ooh and I freeze all the "set up" apps but I am not sure if any of this has to do with the FC's.
I have kind of been curious of maybe when I restore my phone to stock if maybe I'm not using the correct files even though it says they or X1080 obake files...
Could anyone shed some light on my issue here or is anyone else going through this as well? It's very frustrating having these random FC's especially when its the play store!

The two attached images are two force closes I got by either a phone call being received or after turning off WiFi

That error seems to be pertaining to the Download Manager app. Try this;
1. Go to MENU
2. Go to SETTINGS
3. Go to APPS
4. Look for DOWNLOAD MANAGER under ALL
5. Disable it then enable it
6. Clear data and cache

It could all be related to the Download Manager app as is a system service that handles long-running HTTP downloads.

K, I am currently restoring my phone back to stock, after i re root and everything I'll see if the problem persists, if so I will go ahead and do as you suggested. Thanks again for insight.

i believe you were right, using TiBu i wiped data and cache and i don't wanna speak to soon but i havent had those previous FC's i was complaining
It mainly happens when I reboot the phone. "Google play services has stopped working" followed by "com.google.process.location has stopped working", sometimes twice in a row. It's been happening for a couple of days now. The only adverse effect I've noticed, besides it being annoying and frustrating, is that my zooper weather widget hasn't updated in two days. I've even tried to force update it. I tried a websearch and it only turned up a gapps error message. Has this been happening to anyone else or might anyone have some insight as to what is causing the problem?
Try to clear data and cache on google play service.
If it still heppens, reflash your GApps

Clearing app data won't change anything. I fixed it with a clean flash.
"Are you rooted? If so are you using xposed with the Disable Location Consent module? The new Play Services update is causing a conflict with that module; try disabling it and see if that resolves the issue. If that's the culprit you should be fine without the module, there's now a checkbox to no longer show a prompt when switching between Location modes."
I found this solution on reddit.
@Penetrator18 : thanks for the tip mate, it solved my problem
I've been having this problem with the Play Store where it's not displaying the Notifications correctly.
Or rather, that the persistent Notification while an app is being downloaded/updated is not showing any Details. It keeps showing that continuous horizontal scrolling bar thingy as if the download has yet to start, all the way through the actual downloading plus the installing part. No progress, no download size, doesnt even turn to "Installing" after the download is complete. It does show a proper "xy apps Updated" or "xy app Installed" at the end with the proper thumbnail, just nothing While it's downloading.
I can see the progress in the Play store page for the respective app, but the notification keeps on scrolling with no details.
It's most annoying while updating an app, as you know the notification actually shows the size of Just the update while play store just shows the download percentage out of the Whole app.
I can see in the settings page for Play Store that it's the latest version (4.9.13). The phone is Not rooted, I haven't messed with anything that should affect the Play store as far as I know. No third party app store, no proxy etc. It has been doing this since out of the box. (First time I saw this I thought the Play store might be updating first, as often happens after first setup, and that it'll get alright after a restart or something)
Is anyone else experiencing this? Has anyone experienced this some other time? Possible solutions?
Edit 2: Also, what I didn't notice till recently, is that while updating any app via the playstore, the phone downloads the Whole apk every single time. Normal behavior is to download only the updated part of apk, as happens with every other device I use, but since the notifications are not showing any progress, I didn't notice this before.
Strangest part is no one else seems to be reporting this problem, no other threads etc. My only hope is that the new update (Android 5.1) is just round the corner, and hopefully it'll be sorted then.
my one isnt even downloading giving error 489
yes
Yes this happening with me.. We have to give feedback then they will give update
Play store working like charm.. It happened for first time only.. maybe the playstore or its services might be getting updated.
Update: Problem Persists
It's still the same, with latest Play store 5.0.31, and Latest Play services. I believe it's not these apps at fault here. When an update is being downloaded, the download is actually handled by the stock Download Manager app and not the play store itself. This can be checked by long pressing the download notification and going to App Info. So That must be malfunctioning here.
My phone has "Download Manager version 4.4.4-1379542". Can someone who is not facing this problem please confirm what version his phone is using?
Also, clearing this download manager's Defaults doesn't resolve the issue.

Hey,
try installing the new playstore 5.0
first stop existing playstore app, clear data and cache, then remove your registered gmail accounts from settings, reboot and install new apk.
This should definitely solve all playstore related problems.,

Hey,
Yesterday started noticing issues for my S7, which I've had since launch. Have not rooted it or flashed anything to it, but noticed issues yesterday and still occurring now after trying a few things.
Issues include:
-Opening a folder/pressing multi task button, it will probably auto close in a few seconds.
-Kingdom hearts game is now stutters every few secs, music and video.
-Keyboard vibration isn't quite keeping up to button presses.
-General slowness, drag an icon to uninstall it, doesn't direct to the home screen. Even if it did and you dragged it to uninstall, it didn't on one occasion.
-Playing a video on the Youtube app will eventually cause the video to stop/pause every few seconds
I tried clearing system cache, turning off/on, restarting, using smart manager to clear app caches. None of these have seemingly fixed the issues.
Any suggestions would be welcome and greatly appreciated.
Thanks
I think it is related to latest oculus update. try deleting this app if you have it.
Try to factory reset your phone, but if that doesn't help then I would suggest taking it to the repair shop.

Very good point, I did notice that update yesterday, I'll have to try it later when I get the chance, surprised it can mess with the phone despite not being in VR mode though... Thanks for the suggestion!
As for factory reseting, I'd like that to be the last thing to try, as 1. It's gonna be a pain to restore everything back, and 2. I have my bus ticket on my phone using an app, and I think I may lose it if I do this...

It's because the app is stuck in an install loop, the update never completes
Oculus Rooms is the culprit, kill it until they fix it
No factory reset necessary. Install Package Disabler Pro, disable the following:
- All bloatware (via menu option)
- Facebook App Manager
- Facebook App Installer
- Oculus Home
Reboot, wait 5 minutes, and see how Kingdom Hearts is doing at that point.
Hey guys, recently my phone is acting really weird... Whenever i install a new app from play store, when i try to open it, the app crashes.
If i uninstall it and reinstall from the play store it works just fine.
Any ideas about what could be the issue?

Try clearing play store cache, if it still does it, boot to recovery and clear caches from there
Great

Just to update, I uninstalled all Oculus related stuff and it's all fine again. Thanks a lot!
Only problem will be when I want to use Gear VR again, I presume it will all be installed again, though at this point I don't use it regularly really, so I can leave it for a while.

Just a quick update
When i did that it worked that day. Now i installed a new app and the craching app issue is back :/
I'll try to clear android cache from TWRP and see what happens
So it worked for one app (the one i tried after clearing the cache). Opened the app and no crashing. Later this week i installed a new app and same problem, so i booted to recovery and cleared cache from there. Installed a new app (google weather i think) and the app crashed... Any other thoughts on that subject?
