Whenever i open play store app on my s8 plus it just crash and message pop up saying that play store has stopped working. I have tried crearing cache, data and reboot. Nothing worked. Any solutions. My s8 plus is running latest android update.
Ive got a similar issue on a Galaxy S8, play store crashes every time I try turning it on unless I clear its cache, then its working as long as its stored in memory. Does anyone know any fix?

I cannot give you a direct answer to your question.
However consider this.?
On my previous devices, think it was Note 3 or Note 4
i had similar issues with Play store.
Trying to install apps but failing.
or Play store "crashing /stop working etc
Eventually i found that the app store crashes
was actually related to Play Services app which is " "linked " Play Store app.
Somehow i had wrong version of Play Services
installed or it somehow got corrupted.
So its just not the Play Store app but other
apps "linked" to it. eg Play Services.
End result
I decided just to do a factory reset
as i was to confused/annoyed
with whole issue, and did not know how to solve it.

So I updated to the 4.4 Play Store and now when I try to use Hangouts its says "Google Play Services needs to be updated or may not be supported by your device." I tried wiping the apps data/cache but still have issue. Anyone else having this problem? Is the new version of the store the problem? if so where can I get the old version back?
EDIT* So I advanced restored system backup with the older version of the store and its still not working. Also Google Now, Play Games, are giving me the same error message. Says google play services are not supported by my device, contact manufacturer. Hangouts isnt a big deal cuz I dont use it much but I use Google now all the time.
Edit 2* I restored a full back up from a few days ago and now the issue is gone. Very strange. I would still like to know why this happened or what caused the issue. Weird cuz the back up has the 4.4 store still installed.
Having this issue too

I found out it was due to flashing the Inverted themed Play Store. The OP of the mod said it happens to some but not all. Haven't had any problems since.
I recently updated my phone to cm11 m8. All was fine until I opened my play store. It gave me the message 'unfortunately, google play store has stopped.' I tried the usual clear cache and data, rebooting the phone etc. Nothing seems to work. I then went ahead to uninstalling updates for Google play services. And when I realised that many apps wouldn't run on the older version I knew I was screwed. If I'm not wrong, the only way to update google play services is through the play store and my play store isn't working. Please someone help me. I feel so worried rn.

Make sure it's set as a system app, and not a user app.

Maybe the google apps weren't installed as they should have been when you were installing cm11. Try to get rid of any app that's related to google on your phone, and then find a zip folder of google apps (I suppose you can find one on cm webpage) and flash it via c.w.m.

i think you need to post to the developers of the rom to add some app gapps including the whole playstore and google services wich in flashable.zip so you could easily install
flash...
Same advice here
remove everything and flash gapps as a zip...
it will most probably work :good:
Cheers :good:
I have Samsung Tab 8.9 (P7310, Android 4.0.4) and when I try to install or update apps with Play Store (v5.2.13), Play Store crashes with message "Unfortunately Play Store has stopped".
Have tried clearing cache and clearing data to no avail. I uninstalled Play Store updates then it worked until it auto updated to v5.2.13. I also restored the tablet to factory default and again it worked until Play Store autoupdated to v5.2.13.
Found apk for Play Store v5.1.11 and installed that, then again Play Store worked properly until it updated to v5.2.13.
How is it possible to stop auto update of Play Store because its a hassle to always uninstall updates or install different version before trying to install or update apps.
Thanks!
BTW, I don't know about the inner workings of the tablet, file systems, etc. Nor, do I particularly want to become skilled in this regard...just want Play Store it to work again without the hassle so please be gentle with me.

My daughter started using a Pixel the other day and couldn't install Instagram. It wouldn't show up in Google Play. The phone is standard issue non-rooted running 8.1 with the latest security update. I showed her how to side load from apkmirror and the app seems to run just fine. Then checked Google Play from a browser and sure enough the Google Pixel is listed as not compatible. Has anyone else run into this issue? I sent feedback to Instagram, but there doesn't appear to be a direct support channel for end-users.
It's probably just an error on the site, I downloaded it straight from the Play Store without issues. I actually haven't come across an app that isn't supported.
If the problem persists, I'd recommend deleting cache and data for the Play Store and try again.

Found some similar comments to my problem on Reddit and it appears to be a problem on the Google Play back-end, not on the device. Most likely, Instagram mistakenly tagged the phone and blacklisted it. My screenshot shows the desktop web view, and it's clearly marked as not compatible. I don't think clearing cache/data on the device would change that web view of it not being compatible. On Reddit, someone who had it installed, deleted the app and ran into this same problem upon trying to reinstall. They also had to side-load. Luckily we can still side-load.
@Bluntified You were right. Clearing cache and data solved the issue. Thank you

Random issue starting today... Went to update an app (I have auto updates off). Wouldn't update, gave me error 190. I deleted app data and cache for play store, deleted data for play services, deleted and reentered my Google account info... Nothing's working... Help? I hit the build number for the store to update and it says it will, but just never does.
I'm on a Samsung s5 neo running 5.1.1. Haven't changed or even downloaded anything recently besides Samsung themes.
Any help would be appreciated, really don't want to have to format it
