I have been having this issue since oh I say about CM6 Nightlies 8/26-8/27 when the "Market Issue" crept up. And let me say I know that had nothing to do with this ROM per-say. I am using CM6 now on 9-1 nightly...Perhaps someone has\had the same problem.
No matter what I do using AppBrain or just the Market app I keep getting these dam force close on trying to download these 3 updates. 1. Handcent SMS and 2.Droid Battery and 3.Clockwork ROM manager. All of these apps I have removed and re-installed and then tried the market again...Still shows they all 3 need to be updated. Obviously when I am re-installing I am installing the last version I have prior to the updates that both sites say I need. Should I go into manage apps and wack all the updates for all 3 of these apps? Or is there a fix for the market itself? I have removed AppBrain and re-installed but that did not fix the issue either.
Now I have not been wiping anything on these nightlies I might add..And I have never had ANY issues other than the ones mentioned here. I have noticed the GPS issues as a lot of others have. But on 9/1 has ZERO GPS issues and locked in a matter of seconds. Also, I only can get ANY data via WiFi...<---A whole OTHER issue. But I know the fix for that. I just need to have my phone added with my Provider...Which is MetroPCS blah blah. I can get SMS and the Net of course now that there is a nice Proxy Setting which I hope that remains in the final build.
Anywho...Market issues anyone? Is there a way to wack the market.apk and re-install it? I have cleaned cache on just about everything I could think of..Re-set defaults etc on the 3 apps in question. Suggestions?
What I need is
Handcent SMS Version 3.2.9...Again I am NOT able to get to the market and I can't get on WiFi at the moment...
After further investigation ALL I need is Handcent SMS 3.2.9 I have the other versions I have NO idea why it keeps saying that I need to update the other two I have the latest of Gauge Battery Widget and ClockworkROM Manager. Hmmm interesting...

This is a recent and known google problem, not a rom problem. Google's servers have been overloaded, sot his is why the market is not preforming well.
i'm having a similar issue for quite a while now. probably over a month but i've just been dealing with it.
i think it started when i put cy mod 6 on my hero after a complete wipe.
i can not install any apps. from appbrain/market it will go through the dowload process and begin installation. but the installation is always unsuccessful. for almost every app. i've tried restoring from myback up, titanium back up, app saver. nothing works.
i was just about to completely wipe my phone & sd card but thought i'd take a look here first.
any help would be greatly appreciated. =)
Hi,
I have two Nexus 5 phones in my possession, both currently on 4.4.2 (Cataclysm and AOKP). I've recently noticed that the N5 running 4.4.2 Cataclysm has been using an immense amount of background data for 'Google Services' and did some digging to find out what it was. Turns out the phone is constantly re-downloading an OTA update, failing to flash it, then re-downloading it again, and so on.
There's a few attached images that are related - the file it's downloading, and the data used so far.
I found a couple of supposed solutions on various XDA threads and disabled the update service at startup, as well as installing FOTAKill.apk to system, but somehow it's still downloading and it's wearing me down as I can't figure out how to stop it. I understand an update to 4.4.4 would fix it, but i'd rather not as the person currently using the phone isn't all that keen on me taking time to flash & restore backups etc.
Are there any fixes for this that can be done by removing/disabling system services or the like? If it comes to it, I may just be able to block access to that particular ZIP in pfSense/SquidGuard.
Cheers.

Download this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cn.wq.disableservice
Disable SystemUpdateService in Google Play Services + Google Services Framework.
The app itself doesn't store any data so you can uninstall it afterwards.
Or;
Open /system/build.prop, change
Code:
ro.build.fingerprint=google/hammerhead/hammerhead:4.4.2/KOT49H/937116:user/release-keys
to
Code:

I believe you can long press on the notification and just untick show notification.

Doesn't stop it from downloading the OTA again and again. That'll just hide all notifications from Android System, and you might miss something else.
If people don't want to be bothered by important security updates and other goodies, why should we care? I fully updated my manta last night (factory image, latest twrp, omni, restore stuff) in 30min. In my opinion, you're just being lazy with both devices.

The ROM used is an outdated rom, Cataclysm(4.4.2), which is based on stock.
It's their preference for what they want to use.
[Android 5.1] Hangout constantly crashes on launch. + "Google Apps has stopped"
I upgraded to 5.1 on Monday by flashing the factory image. After the first boot and flashing root/recovery etc, I checked everything is running smooth and rebooted the device once more. Ever since then, Google Hangout crashes every time I try to open it; with this error -
Unfortunately, Hangouts has stopped.

I cleaned its cache, cleared data, uninstalled updates, updated from play store.
I cleaned all system cache from Settings > Device > Storage.
I cleaned Dalvik-cache and cache partition by going to recovry.
Nothing seems to fix it. It still crashes with the same error. From time to time, I'm also getting this error -
Unfortunately, Google Apps has stopped.

But all other Google apps are working fine. Anyone else having this issue?
Hangout - 3.0.87531466
Play Services - 7.0.93 (1778921-438)
===============================================
UPDATE -
POSSIBLE CAUSE AND SOLUTION​
After spending 2 entire days on it and flashing the 5.1 factory images 3 times, I found out that it was being caused by LBE Security Master's Active Defense mode. This is like a live AppOps. It grants/denies permissions to apps at run time. Even though I had given full permission to Hangout, it was still crashing for unknown reasons. But after I disabled the active defense mode and rebooted the device, everything is running fine now.
So, if you are using any permission control app like LBE or AppOps, try disabling that and reboot your device. Yes, reboot is necessary. Just disabling doesn't fix it.

I had that version after flashing the 5.1 factory image. I guess Google pushed that to my device. It's not sideloaded.

That is strange. I have the same version of Hangouts, but my updated version of Play Services is 6.7.76 (1745988-438).

I am having the same issue with hangouts. I've taken the same steps to try to fix it.
As part of troubleshooting, I momentarily disabled hangoouts via app settings, then I started to see the "Google App" error. After re-enabling I didn't see this error anymore.
I have not tried removing hangouts completely, as it seems this would break other things.
Any possible solutions?
EDIT: The Google App error is actually persisting.
My issue is hangouts keeps getting killed by the Low memory killer even though I have 1gb free ram.
I did some monitoring, hangouts Noe has to run its own process that I've never seen before and after a minute it caches itself, and I guess the cache is dumped later since I haven't opened hangouts in 5 minutes, I have to restart the app every time I need to use it. I also don't receive any messages during that time because the app has been killed. Any ideas?

Actually I'm using LBE as well and I suspected that it could have been the cause, and as you experienced, I removed all restrictions from the hangouts app and the problem still persisted.
My theory now is that a restriction that we've set on another app (or apps) is indirectly causing this issue with hangouts.
Does anyone know specifically which system apps could be connected to the functionality of Hangouts?
UPDATE: I've disabled restrictions on Youtube, Calendar, and Drive. This appears to have solved the problem.
Hangouts is working normally thus far and I haven't seen any error messages. Will update if things change.
I have a feeling that it's Drive.
What s
Is LBE? I'm stock phone sideloafed 5.1 and I have actually disabled hangout prior to upgrade now getting this error

Google play services "keep awake" disabled could cause it
I let all my apps keep awake in app ops and so on, but still have an issue with hangouts. It gets killed by system 5-10 minutes of not using it even if I leave it in background
2nd Update:
The problem is persisting again... my hypothesis has been disproved.
Any other suggestions or discoveries would be appreciated. I'm trying to find a way to fix Hangouts while keeping privacy settings in place as much as possible...
If XPrivacy was working for Android 5.0+ this issue would disappear.
I re enabled hangouts and updated it and not had the issue since
Play Service 7.0.96 from http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/
Hangouts (+LBE) works fine by 5.1
Nexus 5 32GB, Android 5.01
Hangouts crashes occasionally for me also, and I don't have LBE or anything. I sideloaded 5.1 via nrt but my play services still says 6.7.76. Is that going to be a problem? Won't it just update itself eventually? Does the image not contain play services?
(I have the N6 but I thought the issue would still be relevant)
I had a similar issue, so I rolled back hangouts to 2.5x and it's working fine now, YMMV. of course this may not be a viable solution to you but a working older version is better than a non-usable latest version.
Cheers!
Well, the only thing I can think of, in my circumstances, is that I had hangouts disabled when I updated to 5.1 (I don't use it). So yesterday I enabled it, cleared data, and disabled it again, and so far no crash. Maybe something got changed in the update and it didn't like the fact hangouts was disabled. Again, your issue may vary.

The new play services pretty much renders your phone useless due to nonstop update wake lock, (read more on the cataclysm ROM thread, like last 30 pages). The only way to fix the wake lock so far is to flash the cataclysm ROM patch (idk if it will work with stock ROM but it should) and it blocks the wake lock.
See attached picture below, that's how bad the new google play services is.
As for hangouts I got UKM and lowered the low memory killer to a minimum and disabled laptop mode (I'm using elementalX) and hangouts works just fine for me now.

Sounds like I should stick with what I've got then! Though having said that I think gp will update automatically when it's released, being a core system component?

Yes, it would.
I sometimes write apps and install them to my devices.
Lately I've noticed that the apps seem to disappear.
I have turned off GOOGLE PLAY store scanning of external Apps - and it still seems to happen. It doesn't happen if I DISABLE GOOGLE PLAY and GOOGLE FRAMEWORK, but as I need them to have my apps connect to Google - I am forced to turn them on from time to time.... thus ending in apps being deleted.
Anyone come across this before?
Strange, my phone never uninstalls any apps. Although one of my cheap crappy phones kept deleting specific apps on reboot and deleting files, never figured out why.
Anyway, it shouldn't be happening, try resetting your phone and see if it still happens.
I have disabled few google apps like Chrome,Duo,Photos. These apps are getting enabled automatically after some language update. I need to disable them again. How to stop them from getting enable. I am facing this issue past 3-4 days.

I'm having the exact same issue. No restarts either. I disable the damn thing, and within a day or two, they all get enabled. Why will the damn phone not respect my decision to disable it. Duo, I never use, why the hell does it keep getting enabled? Same with Chrome, and card package. It never used to be like this.
I take it you guys aren't using root; I've just deleted these apps, all is well
I am rooted and I used terminal deloater, xxx no limits, and root essentials and no matter what several Google apps keep coming back after a few reboots and it's irritating
I freeze them with Titanium Backup and they've never come back.
