Google account stooped working! - Nexus S General

Hi Fellas, I've searched everywhere and wasn't able to get my issue fixed. i now run out of options but to ask help to the good folks of XDA. If no1 here can help, than the gods help I'm doomed.
I got 2 android devices (Nexus S and XOOM) and i can't install any apps in either of them using my Google Account. Every time I try do download an app I get "Download Failed" error, also I can't connect to "chrone to phone" on the devices and the only way to install an app in any device it's from the web market.
So i created a secondary Google account and when I use the secondary account I can install anything just fine, so obviously is something wrong with my main account, I just can't figure it out. Everything was working yesterday and it's not working today. Simply as that.
I disabled 2 step verification, I changed my CC on google check out, I changed my passwords and changed all my options and changed back to what it was. And still nothing. I followed every single procedure I found on Google and a bunch of forums and everything was a big frustration.
I'm out of ideias. So if any1 can plz trow a light in here I'll be thankful.
Cheers
Update. I tried buy an new app and it was successful. It boughted and installed. But I still can't install any app I had previously bought it and can't install any free app. I just can't understand wtf is going on. Plz some1 help!!!

Did you try to wipe the cache of the market?

I seen this issue before with the EPIC. One way and the only I was able to fix was a factory reset with the device. The first account is the main account, and its the one you purchase with from the market. Only way to get around it is a factory reset. Try to wipe cache first but it may work and may not. Then again I cant't see what it going on, so it may just be your account with google. Good luck getting in touch with those guys.

I did factory reset, cleared all caches I even cleared my god damn sins.
I tried again today change my credit cards, so tomorrow maybe will go back working. I'm almost certain that its a problem with payment cause it makes no sense otherwise.

Beautiful Widgets wont download

hi,
posted in this nexus1 forum after searching for problem, but I have an x10 and hoping an x10 user might help
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=700371
I purchased Beautiful widgets, but when I try to install I get 'download unsuccessful'.
I have deleted market cache, and rebooted but made no difference..
I am waiting on a reply from the dev, but nothing yet - anyone have any idea why it might not be working or how i could fix?
[edit] more detail:
i purchased/downloaded/installed beautiful widgets successfully. then uninstalled and got a refund, after trying a few other widgets I decided to go back to beautiful widget. Went through the purchase fine, and it says purchased in downloads, but will not download successfully to install
[/edit]
anyone have any thoughts please ?!
Hey
It may or may not help, but if your a UK x10 owner something that worked for me was on your pc log into your google account and switch from googlemail.co.uk to gmail.co.uk and back again fixed my problem with the marketplace. Tho i did have to do it a coupla times to get it to work.
I think this only works if you from UK tho not sure, anywho hope it helps
Dan
I would really make an effort to contact the dev, it seems there's a problem with the market which is confusing Google if youve bought it or not. Anyway, the Dec will be able to sort any confusion out effectively.

Hi I have had the same problem with a game that I purchased, the dev told me that there have been some problems lately with the market and protected apps, and to wait a few days and see.
I solved this when I logged into gmail (which I don't use other than for market). This issue was caused by fraud prevention on my Credit Card, reconfirming the card worked and the App was installed automatically..
Simple fix, but I'm amazed the market doesn't give better error reporting!
Thanks for input!!
go to 0.arenabg.com (a torrent site) and search for android app...i those app there is a butiful widget pack..

[SOLVED] Market free app download - error processing your purchase!

[SOLVED] Market free app download - error processing your purchase!
Ok after messing about with roms i got myself to where i could not download even free apps from the market.
Wiping market cache all that, even after nand restore, then full wipe etc and reinstall rom, the market would still not work, or work then go back into error mode even with free apps.
After posting here and searching google I found other people looking and some options given but none worked.
For all you who are still suffering from this I found the solution
It came to me to go into accounts and sync. I looked at it for a moment then clicked my google account and top right clicked remove account. On starting market after wiping market app cache it asked me to log in with password (which it didn't before) that was it, job done!!! Google account restored on tablet and market working great for a good few days now
Hope this helps...

Did you?
1. go to settings, applications, manage, all, market, clear cache, clear data.
2. go to settings, accounts and sync, click your managed account, top right hand corner click remove account.
3. Reboot
Now when it starts market it will ask you to sign up or sign in. Re-enter your account email and password, then the accept terms and conditions should come up, click yes and it should work.
If it does not get all your apps in the my apps section, try another reboot and log on again, they should be there.
Hope this sorts it, as there is nothing worse than no market (off-course there are millions of things worse than no market, it just feels that way sometimes)

SOMEHOW, adding a nickname to my xoom on the online android market (My market Account > Settings, click edit and add a nickname) seems to have fixed the issue.
OMG!!!!! Thank You Soooooooo Much. I used the contact us thing from the market and nothing they told me to do helped

Don't need to reboot:
1. Go to settings -> Applications -> Manage -> All -> Market
2. Press the Force Close button, press OK to acknowledge this is what you want to do.
3. Press Clear Cache, press OK if it asks you to confirm your actions
4. Exit the screen
5. Go to settings -> Accounts and Sync
6. Click your Google account
7. Press Remove at the top right corner. Press OK to confirm this is what you want to do.
8. Exit the screen
9. Launch Market
10. The Market app will ask you for an account. Put your Google information back in.
11. Once you put the account info in, you'll get the disclaimer. Press OK.
12. Now try to download an app.
These steps work for me (and they are extremely close to the OPs instructions, with only the Force Close added).
Not working for me. A500
tried both workarounds, neither fixed it for me.
edit: giving tapanthers workaround a try now
still no luck
same thing for me. Acer iconia a500. I've tried both methods multiple times with no success
No luck
No luck here with any of the above methods
(acer a500 taboony 2.1b)
they dot work..I am really frustrated!
I was having the issues and no workaround worked I did some digging and found that a newer version of the Market fixes the issue. I am currently using market 3.1.5 and everything is now working correctly. You can find it by doing a search in Google for that version.

Exactly same for me... No luck with methods. Recently had a strange update that gave a BOOKS section i never had before (live in uk), a few days ago. Market busted ever since, yet no amount of reverting / uninstalling updates (even using a Titanium backup) will shift that new addition!
Wonder if that was the cause for some? And where is that part of the program to get rid of it?
Just a thought in trying to locate a cause...

Google Play does not show all installed apps

When selecting My Apps on Google Play web site I can only see half of my apps.
I have about 250 apps installed from Google.
You able to fix market links using Titanium backup?

Try to delete data of Google play in setting - application
then restart phone
This is on the Google Play web site, not on the phone.
I just noticed this problem too.
If you install apps via apk (eg. applications you got on xda) that Google has no record of on the play store, they won't show up.
Hey guys,
I'm having the same issues with my stock Galaxy S III. A couple of hours ago, I became 4 fresh devices directly from the Authorized dealer here where I live. I wanted to update them and set them up properly for my co-workers. I've installed 4.1.1 on all 4, with kernel 3.0.31-256827. Everything went smooth on all devices and I was really fascinating what a wonderful device that is. Afterwards I've created 4 Gmail accounts for all of them (from the same IP address) to install the needed apps from GooglePlay. But one, somehow, someway didn't show any pre-installed apps in GooglePlay, such as GoogleMaps, Gmail, Google+, which should appear, because they're installed same procedure in each case (every device has got the same versione, same firmware,..).
..to focusing back on little-vince's post;
I hope that's not true.
I don't know the way these apps were installed or cooked into, but 3 of 4 phones went smoothly in my case.
All 4 were before the update on the same version, which I did not wrote down. The problem also is, that on another device I had the problem to update the apps via GooglePlay which were shown. There basically was an *update* sign, but when I clicked it there was the text that it's not available in my area.
I somehow think, that the problem is somewhere in the language/locales.
I've switched between the default language on the phone, rebooted it, and somehow I made it work on the second device to run updates,
but on the first device, not even a single installed app shows up, which is funny :silly:
I've also tried to clear cache, wipe everything, factory reset etc.., but it didn't worked out.
If you find a solution, I'd be glad to know.
Sir, you stated Galaxy S III, you do know this is the GNote >>Galaxy Note GT-N7000. Unless you are ref to the GNote 7000.
But I glad you used the Search button to bring this thread up...from June - Sept.
I had this problem once and it was because I changed the screen resolution (lcd density). Google play understands this modification as a "not compatible device", so some apps doesnt´t show at "My apps".
Before that I tried a lot of solutions, like cleaning the google play cache, etc., but nothing worked.

Nexus 4 - You don't have any devices - Google Play website

Anyone help with this annoying problem I'm recently experiencing?
I've never had this problem before, but for no reason (i've not installed any apps recently or changed ROM) I am unable to install apps to my phone via my PC google play browser.
All I get is 'You don't have any devices' - and when I try install an app it says 'You haven't accessed the Google Play Store app (the white shopping bag icon) on your device with this email account.
Clearly I have because I just installed a free game from my phone and I can the see the game installed from the PC play store browser in my apps list.
I have tried forcing the Google Play app to stop and clearing data, logging out of my PC browser and trying again but no luck, I have reinstalled GAPPS and my ROM with a cache/davlic wipe but same results.
All I can think of is because my original email was c......... @googlemail.com and one day it asked me if I wanted c........ @gmail.com and to merge the two accounts together, which I clicked yes to. So when setting my phone up for the first time I use c........ @googlemail.com but then it shows up as c......... @gmail.com when I look at my account settings....
Really annoying problem!!
same issue with Galaxy Note II
No, it's not because of changing email addresses. It has to do with changing ROM.
I changed my ROM from samsung note II, to CM10, and this problem started occurring. I'm also thinking it has something to do with titanium backup breaking market links

I don't know if it's the ROM. I've tried many ROMs on my Nexus 7, Nexus 4, and Galaxy Ace, sometimes even switching everyday of the week and I've never one had this issue.
I'd talk to Google support if I were you. The only thing I have issues with is my device list. It shows two Nexus 7s because my first one died after 7 days and I had to exchange it for a new one, which also activated... and you can't remove devices from your account.
Titanium Backup "market doctor"
Could it be Titanium Backup's market doctor? Perhaps this problem started when I linked all system and user apps to the market.
It also shows a really old nexus 7 that I've sold long ago. Notwithstanding, I can still use Google play on my device without any issue.

I've never used TB market doctor because all of my backups linked properly to the market when I restored them. I would guess that isn't the issue though, because all it does is repair link to the market so apps show up as downloaded and can be updated.
It sounds like it could be an account issue with the email/merging thing you did.
spoke to google
I spoke to google for a long while: while I was not able to to see my phone listed under "my devices" they were able to see it on their end. All I could see was 4 devices that I have long ago stopped using.
They speculate that it could be an error with a recent update to the Play.google.com site....
here is what they recommend:
Uninstall updates to
GOOGLE PLAY SERVICES
GOOGLE SERVICES FRAMEWORK
GOOGLE PLAY STORE
They also asked me to wipe data.
They asked me to reboot - and - now I'm still waiting for the auto play-store update. Currently does not seem to have solved the problem.
Anyone else having these issues?
<<hangouts will require the updated play-store in order to work>>

Go into settings > apps > all, and select Google Play Store
Force stop and clear data.
Then open the play store again on your device and accept the terms and conditions.
Wait 15 minutes or 30 minutes or 1 hour, you will see your device.

System dump?

Hi so been on 7.0 for at least a month and just last two days phone was being really buggy so I turned the phone off and back on phone didn't prompt for password to boot.
Is there a way I can save the whole phone on to drive to send to someone to take a closer look to see what virus is on here Im guessing it's a rootkit some how also what way would you run packet capture to see things that way?

a virus would be software related...if you did a full wipe and installed fresh software and it continues it might be an app you keep installing...do you get your apps from the playstore or side load as well

playstore only before my phone was locked boot loader and encrypted to have to use pin to boot device.
AS SOON as i get the buggy phone and reboot when it boots up it no longer request pin to boot. on stock rom i was rebooting phone every week to see how long it would take and usually nothing odd until phone got buggy for reason of the reboot.
the buggy issue is shortly opening an app the app will freeze so i hit home nothing happends try to turn the screen off nothing happends until a minute later sometimes phone will reboot its self or i hold power to make it reboot but both take about same amount of time when phone goes into full freeze.
so it being a playstore app and the virus not getting detected google needs to look into how they can patch this...
so im putting this out there so this person or group doesnt forever have a backdoor into peoples phones.
this issue i have had since november last year but havent been so aware about the issue till august. since august ive been dealing with know some how they are getting in and must be an app but i got rid of all games and weird apps that are not nessisary
abs workout, esfile explorer, google+,mint personal finance,tapatalk,accuweather,alaskausafcu,amazon kindle, android auto, android device manager, android pay, calculator, chrome browser, chrome remote desktop, clock, cloud print, contacts, es task manager, facebook, family locator, favorite frequencies, fing, garmin connect, gci my usage, gmail, google, google calendar, google camera, google docs, google drive, google goggles, google keep, google keyboard, google news, google now launcher, google opinion, google photos, google play games, google play music, google txt to speech, hulu, keeper, look out, malwarebytes, maps, messenger, eset mobile security, pandora, playstation phone, phone, shazam, sixaxis controller, skype, speed test, usaa mobile, vlc for android, wifi analyzer, xbox, youtube, zombies run
these are all the apps ive had since ive had this issue.
i was hopping that esfiles exploreres new feature of being notified of new files would help solve this but some folders it doesnt detect like youtube or google music even though in es files explorer i unlocked ability to view the .nomedia
Drop ES File Explorer, to start. Read this article, or do some googling about it on your own;
https://www.androidpit.com/this-is-why-you-should-not-use-es-file-explorer
I have to agree with the article when it says Solid Explorer is a great replacement. I've used it for years now and it's never let me down.
The fact of the matter is, if you manually wiped all of your phone and formatted your internal storage, nothing remains from pre-wipe. If your issue is coming back it can only be a hardware issue (if applicable) or some app you are using, as previously mentioned.
Furthermore, after googling your exact issue I came to find that certain apps that require 'Accessibility Services' can and will disable your pin/password/pattern on boot. Check if any of your apps fit the bill in 'Settings > Accessibility > Services'
Disable any apps which are enabled and reboot. You may have to set up pin, etc., again, but leave the services disabled and see if the issue returns. Let us know!
Edit: Upon more googling, I've found reports of people who had the issue return after disabling & uninstalling the apps in question as well. You may need to flash stock images again and do not install any apps that require accessibility services, or don't grant any of them permission even once.
Edit2: Just another link to check out;
https://blog.g3rt.nl/android-lollipop-encryption-user-interface-flaw.html
Edit3: Issue tracker link; https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=219498
Edit4: If you logged into your bank app and factory reset or flashed factory images, logging in again after the wipe/flash will show as a new device. Same goes for having login alerts set for Google / Facebook, etc. Your same phone shows as a new device after the flash or wipe. Guaranteed not a virus.

The fact of the matter is, if you manually wiped all of your phone and formatted your internal storage, nothing remains from pre-wipe. If your issue is coming back it can only be a hardware issue (if applicable) or some app you are using, as previously mentioned.
Furthermore, after googling your exact issue I came to find that certain apps that require 'Accessibility Services' can and will disable your pin/password/pattern on boot. Check if any of your apps fit the bill in 'Settings > Accessibility > Services'
Disable any apps which are enabled and reboot. You may have to set up pin, etc., again, but leave the services disabled and see if the issue returns. Let us know!
Edit: Upon more googling, I've found reports of people who had the issue return after disabling & uninstalling the apps in question as well. You may need to flash stock images again and do not install any apps that require accessibility services, or don't grant any of them permission even once.
Edit2: Just another link to check out;

Edit3: Issue tracker link; https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=219498
Edit4: If you logged into your bank app and factory reset or flashed factory images, logging in again after the wipe/flash will show as a new device. Same goes for having login alerts set for Google / Facebook, etc. Your same phone shows as a new device after the flash or wipe. Guaranteed not a virus.

Thank you! I tried googling but guess I wasn't doing it properly.
I turned off keeper nothing.
I un installed it nothing.
I dont know how to re enable boot encryption pin.
the phone says it is so I'll try clean install again and just not allow keeper anymore I think the issue has come up just after turning keeper on to allow the accessibility features.
Thank you I will keep you informed give it till February if nothing odd happened.

Also thanks I know about the added devices I cleaned the one to my bank account and I look at my other accounts every once in awial and make sure nothing odd wish my bank account showed what devices instead of only having clean on Facebook I've had things look suspicious ips from another states but the device listed was same as mine so don't know if they are able to spoof that.
I always assumed that some how the cell tower was saying it is relayd to Cali or something.
I live in Fairbanks Alaska.

Well turns out it was keeper I switched to last pass uninstalled keeper before uninstall It was telling me 8 hrs of battery life. Now 21 more hrs with already being on for 5 hrs at 78%.
Phone hasn't had any weird issues. Except I had lost the encryption anyways and only after having the new image for one week now been going for three weeks.
