In short, June Google Play system update after installing is always coming back.
So this is what I did before first try of installing Google Play system update:
Updated all apps in Play Store
Installed June Android security update, reboot
New updates for the apps showed up in Play Store (Camera and some others) + additional apps to install (Emoji Workshop), installed and updated
At this point Google Play system update is still on May 1, checking for new update and 57MB showed up.
Here the infinite update cycle begins...
Some additional info:
"Installing update..." screen never changes and disappears after 30min. Completely, no reboot info, update is not running in the background, nothing.
I left "Installing update..." for the night and in the morning "Reboot" showed up, after rebooting same update is still available. "Reboot" thing happened only once.
Clearing data and cache from Play Store, nothing changed.
I had disabled some of the builtin apps, like Live Wallpapers, TV, Android Auto, Pixel Tips. Enabled everything, updated those apps, reboot, update also nothing changed.
It looks like I have all the new features from June update.
So... someone had similar issue or have any idea how to fix it?
This has happened in the past. You would update Google Play system and it would not update. Eventually it will update, such need to try each and perform the update until it sticks. This is Google server side issues they always seem to have.
Be patient and it will stick with the latest update.
I've had that too. It's no big deal

I do not have a clue as to what is causing this but I know it is becoming very tiresome. When some apps that are automatically updated they seem to get stuck in permanent download mode. On the apps page it is shows a continuously streaming blue line but no indication as to how much date has downloaded. I have tried deleting and reinstalling, cleared cache in the app, Playstore and Google framework, etc and nothing helps.
Update, I belive I found the problem. Go to Download mgr and clear it‘s cache. Mine had 223mb in it.
Didn't help me any. I think it's a problem with google. I see it happen on all my android devices...long, long wait then all of a sudden the file starts installing.
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.,

So there's a well-known app in the Google Play Store that has been updated - I don't like this new version.
Before I updated, I saved a copy of the version I had on my phone, locally. After updating, I didn't like it. So I removed it, enabled Install from Unknown Sources, and reinstalled the version I *did* like.
Now, when I update apps from Google Play, I do "update all", then go to the app I don't want to update, and click the "x" so that it doesn't update.
The problem is, sometimes it updates anyway, even though I've verified that the app has gone to the "Updates" list and not the apps currently being updated.
It *appears* that this app is somehow forcing its own update, even though I have deselected it.
I'm using a stock android kernel, so I can't keep it from updating across the board. But I'm surprised that when I deselect it before the update process has reached it, it sometimes still updates. Again, it SOMETIMES does this, not every time.
Does anyone know how this process works? How can an app force itself to update even though I've unselected it for update?
What you want to do is open play store, open the app in the market that you don't want to auto update, then, in the top right corner there should be 3 dots, click them and disable auto update, it will disable auto update only for that app and when you hit update all, it will update it.

It's already disabled for auto-update (as are all apps on my phone).
So, unfortunately, that's not it.
If you tap on the clear data button in settings>storage>apps>google play store , the settings" do not Auto update " will be cancelled, and app will return to default settings.
Whatever the settings maybe, google play store and google play services update automatically.

Not sure what you mean; I can surely clear Google Play settings, tho' I've done that many times in the past. What do you think it would clear that would fix this issue, if auto-update is already off?
Hey Guys,
A few weeks ago (not exactly sure of the time) I started getting a lot of prompts for Google Chrome and Play Services using a lot of power. It's the white box that pops up on screen, lists the apps, and gives the options to check again in a week or fix now. I keep hitting fix now, and after a couple days, sometimes later that day, I get the same alert. If I pull down the system bar, it's the Device Maintenance panel and I can tap on fix from there.
I've uninstalled play services patches, and reinstalled. I've uninstalled chrome and reinstalled, but that doesn't seem to have done anything. I had a prompt to install the new Tmo patch (12/10/2017 ish) which I installed hoping that might fix the problems, but it didn't.
Just wondering if anyone on Tmo with the S8+ has recently had any apps starting to go crazy and constantly being bombarded with "device fix" popups. Would booting to recovery and wiping cache help?
Galaxy S8+
T-Mobile
Stock - Updated with carrier push (12/10/2017)
No mods, no root, etc.
Thanks,
Sin.
I'm coming from OnePlus devices where this was never an issue for me in 6 years.
Is anyone else still on A10 and rooted, getting hard pushes from Google to update to A11? I've disabled both Dynamic System Updates and Factory OTA Mode apps to try to block updates from occurring and also stop getting pestered about it. After having to factory reset my device once, and re-load all my backed up apps and data, I continue to get push notifications to install A11. The one I just received was a normal-looking notification in the notification shade with a button to push to start the update process. This is something I could have easily accepted by accident. This already happened to me once, apparently.
--------Does anyone know in what directory Google stores a downloaded OTA update?
I have a feeling it is on my device now and I want it off. I have root and can get to hidden system folders. I assume it's in one, I just don't know what to look for.
--------How do I block from every automatically updating, permanently?
I have the system update on reboot unchecked in developer options, but is there something else I can do just kill this process?
Edit - I found the notification to turn off in Google Play Services so that should stop, but I'm still nervous about the OTA lying in wait to install on my phone.
