I have a very strange problem with my Atrix.
When I upgraded to 5.3.0 Maps I was able to use the check in feature...Then it mysteriously disappeared from Google Maps. I was able to get it back by re-installing and updating google maps again...and then it disappeared again in about a week. Short of downloading and reinstalling Google maps every 7 days I want to find out if this is a problem on my phone, or someone else has noticed similar behavior.
--Edit--
One thing I just tried was going into Application Manager and clearing all the data (Then having to re-log in)...This brought check-in options back.
did it again
This morning my check-in ability is gone...Even clearing the data, rebooting the phone and reinstalling the applicaton updates did not fix it this time.

Hi,
I am unable to download anything from Market Place.
Whenever I want to download anything from Market Place, the tab will show "Download".
However, even when I press download, I was always prompted the error message, "Error proccessing purchase". I would like to state that I am downloading free app, not paid app.
I have to do a workaround, by going to web-based Market Place to "Install" the app.
Afterwhich, when I go back to my Market Place, the same app which I had problem downloading would be shown "Install", instead of "Download".
And when I click on "install", the download will go through with nowproblem.
At the same time, I have no problem updating all my exisitng apps.
I have tried clearing the data, but the problem still persist.
May I know what would happen if I do a factory reset?
Can I do a Titanium Backup and do a factory reset after that?
And if a factory reset, doesn't help, I'll just restore my system data.
Thanks guys, hope someone can help.
Are you on the stock Rom?
This has happened to me also, a solution (that didn't work for me) was to remove your google account, clear the cache and market data, then re-add your google account. I still have the problem but I have a google account and a google apps account, when the downloads don't work on my google account, I just use my google apps account.
I had this happen too, I did the same as the above post^
The market has been acting up the last few days...I guess they are getting ready for the ICS release...coming in the next few weeks...

I've not noticed any problems lately (beyond the usual having to refresh a few times to get a page to load, and having to power cycle or disconnect and reconnect wifi to get an app to start installing).
I had this exact issue about 5 weeks ago.
After exchanging emails with Google Tech folks, it was determined that my Google Talk account had logged out.
They said that your market is tied to your google talk account.
I went through, deleted everything, re-added my google account, and made sure the GTalk was working, and bam, market began working.
I have a google apps account too.
Thanks guys for the response.
I tried removing my google account, cleared the cache and data, and re-added my google account, it still failed to work.
This is really frustrating. However, I was able to download Angry Bird Rios just now.
The funny thing was, the tab was showing "Install", instead of the usual "Free".
I am thinking that the probable reason why it was showing "Install", instead of "Free" was because I used to have this game in my account.

but i am still getting nowhere with all the solutions provided.
jus tried to log in the my google talk account, it's still the same.
now i am seeing viber with the "Install" tab on my Market, whereas the rest of the other apps are showing "Free".
I had the same issue, and the only way I was able to fix it was with a factory reset. I backed up all of my non-system apps with Titanium Backup, then wiped my data. When going back to restore apps and data, just let the Market re-download any apps you have backed up to your account, and use Titanium Backup only to restore the missing apps and data.
That would be my next suggestion. Complete backup, wipe, and reinstall. Once reinstalled, be careful not to click install more than once on an app -- this seems (to me) to cause instability. If an app doesn't start installing a few seconds after you hit the install button, disconnect and reconnect your wifi. If that doesn't clear it (although it always does, for me) an alternate method is to completely cold-boot the tablet.
My hangouts was lagging like two days ago, so I cleared cache & data. Usually after doing this it would ask me which account I would like to log in as, and when I selected it, it would log me in. This time when I tried it said "Couldn't sign in because we couldn't connect to Google. Try again." I tried on WiFi and mobile data (I was on vacation in Canada)... No luck. I even did the delete Google Play Services thing.. Still gave me the same message. Any idea what caused this and how I can fix it? Thanks a lot in advance.
Hello,
Whenever I am switching on my Location service/GPS to high accuracy mode, I am getting this popup which says "Unfortunately, Google Play services has stopped." And also the GPS is not working either. I am not being able to locate myself on the map. Since I have my exams starting next week and I use Ola/Uber to travel it is really essential for me to have this issue solved at the erarliest.
Please see, recently I also got this message "Unfortunately, CM logger has stopped." Although the CM logger message is not recurring the Google Play Service is a recurring error which keeps pn popping every 5 seconds. It is so irritating. Need a solution at the earliest.

you must have either flashed a custom rom over your current build or must be flashing kernel or so and since then this problem would have come up.... There is a temporary solution to it and then there is a permanent one.
Temporary : Uninstall google play services updates. If uninstall option does not become available then go to security, disable android locator or something like that in administrator options etc.. It is somewhere around in security. You will have to look a bit. Once you deactivate that you will be able to uninstall updates of google play services. Clean data of it. Reboot. Once you reboot, your phone will say some apps require google play services to run. Click on that notification and update Google Play Services.
The termporary solution may or may not work.... It sometimes worked for me but recently has not been working.
Permanent solution, take backup of your data and get back to all stock and before you have setup everything on your phone, flash kernel and reboot. If you are not facing the problem again, then resetup....
Remember, if you take backup of data, and after clean install, try to restore the data, the problem would return with greater magnitudes....
Hope I helped
All the best for your exams....
First clear data of google play services and the apps which stops automatically ....Go to settings>apps>all apps>google play services and clear data.......If this not solves ur problem ..then factory reset
So I'm having this issue that just started today. The dice app I use is not picking the location I selected on the map, no matter what it always selects the entire us map. And with the ziprecruiter app, it will not stay logged in. Even after I login, it will log right back out. I haven't reinstalled the apps but I'm just wondering if anyone had this issue and how they fixed it short of restoring the phone

Did you try clearing the apps data and resetting the permissions? Also, try clearing google play services and the google apps data as well. they are responsible for location.
This is insane!
I go to playstore to check updates. It says "Error checking updates". I repeat the process and get frustrated. I clear data on playstore and go to add my account again only it brings up the side menu and when I move that out of the way, it says "try again". I hit that button and the menu slides back out! And I repeat this process and get frustrated.
So I did all the cache clearing, data clearing stuff for play, play services. I have no download manager. And still this problem.
I did not and will not remove and try to add my google account again because then I might lose access to my contacts. In fact, I haven't even checked if they still sync. If they don't, I suppose I could do that.
Other than that, what can I do?
This is the craziest thing I've ever seen.

Lol hello again sir
Go to www.gooogle.com/contacts
From any web browser, are your contacts in place?
Guessing you haven't but reboot your phone, cycle your WiFi and see if anything prompts you to sign in or sync.
Then go to settings/ accounts / Google and make sure it's allowed and syncing, check both sync and Google
Re-open Google play and see if it's working.
Oh and perhaps change WiFi to another or test on mobile data if you don't have a second signal to use.
=) Thanx for your help. I can get contacts in a browser. I rebooted a couple times, did wifi and mobile, and nothing. It syncs everything in the account as well. I just can't use play store. I cleared data and cache on playstore and services. And I can access play from a browser; so I didn't get banned or something. It's specific to this phone, it occurred sometime after the update to the latest firmware. I'm not sure if it's related.

Only thing I can think of would be to wipe all play services, store then reinstall.
This has happened before?
First time.... What is the best way to restore this stuff on the stock ROM w/o factory reset?

So you can usually clear data on all Google services.
But if that doesn't work then boot to recovery and just wipe system, not the whole phone.
This will mean you have to set up your phone again but your storage will remain unaffected. So images, files, music won't be touched
