Google Playstore - Download Pending

Ok, so recently jumped ship from iOS to a Pixel 3a. It's been a couple months and now the past 2 days all downloads, including updates refuse to download or update with the message "Download Pending"
I've cleared the cache from both the Play Store and download manager, rebooted and also force rebooted.
I REALLY do not want to have to factory restore this phone to fix this issue.
What are my options to fix this issue? I trust people on XDA are a lot more reliable and smarter than a random forum to post in.
The Pixel is rooted, Magisk has Play Store hidden. No changes in the OS to guess why this issue has popped up.
Help needed, thank you in advance

I don't think it would effect this issue, but you don't need to hide the Google Play store in Magisk.
Have you changed locations or at least networks? It very well may be a network issue and not a phone issue.

Just wait one or two days and it will back to normal.
It happened on my device and I tried everything and couldn't fix it. I just let the "download pending" there and the next day it just worked.
It's not a network issue as I had another pixel 3a working at the same time.
It's more like google is updating or checking for update for play services silently and that process is somehow stucked. As a result, the system think there is something downloading/updating and put all other download into pending.
Another temporary fix you can try is to restart the phone while it's showing"download pending" (don't cancel the download) and re-open play store. You may see the previous pending download will start downloading but any new download will still be pending.

Ok i cleared the cache & data from Play store, download manager and download (sys app) and it worked for about 10 minutes and we're back to download pending.
Doing the same thing does not now work.
RIP my patience

It's been 4 days now I'll give the "Another temporary fix you can try is to restart the phone while it's showing"download pending" " a go and let you know if that helps

Nope, still with the same network provider and on the same wireless network & ISP at home.
Nothing has changed, one day just decided it doesn't wish to work

Google pay on Ultra

Hello,
Is gpay working for you? Tried with gpay open - no reaction when holding near the bank terminal. Tried from home screen - the same. Previous devices like s9, note9 worked fine. Now I cannot find the reason

Turn on NFC?

Nfc is on, and it works, tried with bank card reading

Found out that other nfc apps are not working too. Seems that it is nfc problem with third party apps

I'm having an issue with google pay where it keeps telling me I moved the phone too fast. even though it hasn't moved. I haven't been able to get it working as of yet.

note 20 ultra google pay and nfc doesnt work

works for me. i have the N986U.

Same issue, tried everything. Hoping next OTA fixes it, otherwise I'm servicing the phone.

Has anyone here managed to fix a broken Google Pay on the N9860?
I contacted Google Pay support and they're saying the configuration appears ok but the terminals aren't communicating back to the phone. I have tried changing the secure element to all three options, removing and adding the cards again. This all worked on my previous Note 8 so it seems to be a problem with the N9860 and not my cards/banks.

Google Pay not working fix
Hi
If your Google pay isn't working try these 2 options:
1. Uninstall google pay and re-add the payment method (card) even if you already see the card is there
2. I think this is most probably issue:
When you go to NFC settings in your Samsungs settings not Google Pay app, you'll see "tap and pay",this option will be activated as your nfc is on,tap on the writting and on the bottom of the screen you will see 2 options,left is Payment and right is Others. Tap on "others" and you'll see 2 options: first is Nearby(tap 2 phones to transfer photos/data) and 2nd is Google Pay,make sure that is SELECTED.
Once I selected that option, Google Pay worked.
I contacted Google before, but their brilliant support team and account specialists couldn't figured it out

Another fix... None of the above worked for me and Google support couldn't help either.
I had my giffgaff SIM in slot 1, tried all sorts of stuff for weeks and nothing worked. Eventually I put an O2 SIM into slot 2 and added my cards, problem solved! After a successful transaction, I was then able to remove the O2 SIM and just leave the giffgaff one in and it still works.
I don't know if the problem was the giffgaff SIM, the slot it was in or something else but I honestly tried the above and so much more to no avail. If you're having issues, try swapping SIM slots or put a second SIM in.

Warning for those looking to update their Fossil/Skagen etc. with the new update.

Just in case you don't hang out in the Wear OS subreddit, Fossil's update appears to break Google Pay as it thinks the device might be rooted or otherwise modified. See here.
If you rely on Google Pay on your watch don't update yet.

I've not had the chance to test it on my Skagen Falster 3 yet but don't imagine I'll experience anything different.

Same Problem here, read it to late
*Edit*: Cleared pay and nfc cache & data, after reboot I can reassingn my card without error.

Thank you for the heads up

I followed the advice of someone and my GPay has worked fine:
- remove card
- clear app data
- remove app updates
- restart watch and re-add card
I hadn't tried to use it before doing that so don't know if it was actually the steps that or whether it would have worked anyway but just thought I'd mention it.

Issues with Google Pay in the UK.

Hi I have my 3 bank cards set up with Google Pay and although everything set up fine & looks ok in the app I am unable to make payments using the phone.
I have tried in 3 different shops & keep getting an error, it's a big circle with an exclamation mark with text underneath saying "That didn't work"
I thought it must have been an issue with the terminal, but I have tried in other stores and have the exact same issue on all 3 cards from different banks.
I did have a message pop up a few days after the first attempt saying my phone can now be used to make payments. But I am still getting the same error.
Has anyone come across this error before?
Hard to tell if the issue lies with my bank, Google or Xiaomi hardware.

Settings > network connections> tap and pay > choose hce wallet.
Go to manage app and clear cache for Google pay, Google play service and Google services framework.
Restart phone and set up Google pay again.

Thanks for the tip, I'll give this a try

Still no luck on this.
Gonna have to try a factory reset I think.

I'm using this phone with Google Pay in the UK, had no issues myself. I didn't have to make any settings changes, etc.
(I got my unit from Xiaomi UK)

you can try this.

I am having the same problem (in Italy). I setup everything ang Google Pay tells me that everything is ok, but then when I try to pay a red exclamation mark appears. I tried to enable HCE, uninstall and reinstall Google Pay but no luck. What can I do? @jusumgeezer did you by chance debloat something or have you tried a factory reset?

Just FYI, a factory reset fixed the issue for me, I tried this morning and it worked on the first try!

Hi,
Quick update on this.
I managed to get it sorted with a factory reset.
After resetting I skipped past adding the Google account & went in to the app settings & enabled all permissions for Google pay & disabled any MIUI optimization.
I also did the same for my banking apps before logging in.
After that I was able to add my cards to Google Pay without any issues, following the normal process & now everything works fine with 3 cards added.

Anyone tested Google pay?

Hi.
I got my phone yesterday and added my card successfully in Google pay. Tested it in two different stores today with contactless payment, but the terminal didn't even react.
I tested the nfc on my oneplus against my old huawei and at least it tries reading it, so that means the nfc is working I guess.
Have to add that I was using Google pay in these stores before with my old Huawei with no problems.
EDIT: SOLVED
I changed from SIM1 to Google pay in phone settings to make it work.

I have tested it 2 times, no problems. Phone was unlocked , display on

I tried to pay with Google pay twice yesterday. Both times the phone recognized i was trying to pay, but the payment did not get through. Tested with PayPal and CC both times.
Btw i am curious to know wether i have to open the power menu everytime i want to pay? Or does Google Pay still work from every screen?

Works for me everytime, although it says "not set up"

Worked for me when my BL was locked, working fine with unlocked BL and root. Even paid today.

Working... Rooted....

You need to Magisk Hide Google Pay. While you are at it hide root from everything Google.

I did. Still no work
Ok, strike that. Looks it's working now, but only after restarting the phone. Safetynet failed before restarting and now it passes.

Did some more testing today. Tried for an extended period in the store today with no luck. It's not even reacting. Phone is not rooted btw and I unlock the screen when I try it. I try to open the app when doing it also.
I tried pairing my headset with nfc and that works flawlessly.
So weird
Edit: just found this settings. Think that could be it? (See picture)

I too, am experiencing issues with Google Pay. At first, I thought it was my bank card needing my bank to ok it for Google Pay on the new phone. But then my Walgreens points card didn't work either-so it's definitely NFC or Google Pay oriented. I have everything setup correctly. How annoying and weird...

Changing the settings from SIM1 to Google pay made it work, so problem solved!
