I have been attempting to dl apps that I've been purchasing only to have to get a refund before my money is lost. Everytime I try to install the app it just says installing forever and never starts the download. The strange thing is this only happens with apps I purchase. Free apps download just fine.
Has this happened to anyone else if so has anyone fixed this?
I've had the exact same thing happen to me. I just waited a bit and eventually it started to download. Took mine maybe 20-30 minutes.
This has been happening to me as well. I hit buy, get an email about my purchase and then it hangs. If i hit back, the button still says "buy", after a couple minutes it changes to "install". It has happened to me a few times with free apps also.
Sent from my Thunderbolt.
try wlan on / off. i know this bug from my galaxy s.
This happens to me as well with free apps... I've found that whenever it happens to just exit out of the market & try again. Not the best solution, I know... but it's worked for me before. Gotta love those growing pains...
Could you guys please report this to the market? Happened to me and they're just like "hurr durr you're probably doing it wrong"
Anyway once it becomes a known issue I suppose we can expect them to fix it.
When I buy.
I tab [My Apps] in Android market. (I can see: Downloading then Instal).
But will not appear in notification bar (like reguler free application).
This started happening about 2 weeks ago when i had 4.4.2 i now have 5.0 and its still happening, So when i download a file with firefox or the mega app the file downloads like normal with the screen on, next thing you know after the screen goes off and i turn the screen back on the download stops. this never happens with utorrent. The only way the file will download is if i keep the screen on the whole time its downloading. I noticed it pause's the download with mega when the screen is off and some times it resume downloading, but it doesn't keep downloading in the background with the screen off like it used to. I also keep getting a unlock s health notification on start up then it goes away but always show up when i boot up the phone. Anyone know how to fix these very annoying problems. Thanks.
hi. i just got my NOTE 4 its model is N910F. i just made a new account on playstore and i added it and it worked just normal. after downloading 2 apps, it started giving me ERROR 491. i just searched xda and got the info where i need to remove my account and restart the device and i did it and it didnt help. the error is still there.
then i went to settings and application manager and force stop and clear cache and data or Playstore app, Play services and Framework and restarted the device and now i cant even get to the playstore. its opening but it says no connection although my phone is connected to WiFi.
can someone help me with this? i m coming back to smartphone after long time like a year and this very problem. its LITERALLY been only 1 hour i got this device. pls help thanks in advance.
That happened to me a few time when I attempted to download the free version of Hardwood Solitare. The only fix I could come up with is to kill the Play Store in the apps drawer and disable the WiFi/Mobile Data Connectivity. Then re-enable them. That worked for me.
I'm having issues with the Play Store and some non-Google sites. I'm constantly noticing that Play Store gets stuck in "Downloading" when trying to update apps or install new ones and never actually starts until I completely restart the phone. Chrome also gets stuck loading pages that are non-Google sites, and I can't seem to download anything as they all get queued.
I tried clearing cache + data on play store, play services, download manager and even a factory reset. Everything works when I reboot, but after some hours it get "stuck" again, every day. Happens on wifi and 3G; no idea what's causing it.
I'm running stock Nov build with root (not systemless). Same exact apps and config on my N5 and no issues there.
Have you tried to download without root?

Sometimes if an application needs permission it will block downloads.
The way to fix it is go into the Playstore and stop the current downloads then "update all".
You will probably get a permission notification.

I'm assuming you have greenify force doze mode on? That did it to me and had to reboot often to fix it, so I finally stopped using it for now. Try disabling that then reboot and see if it happens again.

I do have that enabled actually. I'll try it out w/o the aggressive doze setting and see how it works.

Had aggressive doze turned off and downloads just got stuck again so that's not it. I'm uninstalling Greenify completely and see if that does anything.
For me it was a combo of aggressive doze force and ad block. If i disabled one of them then rebooted it seemed to work fine. Both at the same time then it would happen often. I'm not sure, but maybe there's something else triggering it for you.

I had this problem at one point. I can't remember which ROM I was on, but it appeared to be related, so I did a full wipe, flashed an updated ROM, and the problem went away.

Did you try uninstalling the update on Google Play store?
I think it was Greenify that was causing it. I uninstalled the beta version and installed the current play store version and it hasn't happened all day; logcat also looks like it has significantly less errors as well. I think something is funky with the beta version on Marshmallow.

I have been looking for a solution to this issue for so long, going so far as to factory reset my phone. Then, when I saw your comment, I realized my adblocker could be issue. Turned that off, and voila! You are my hero right now.
help me to download from goole play,it does not allow me(P10)
hi, My s7 edge has started going into bootloop if i to use facebook or google playstore. or even manually install an apk. if i dont do these, exmple- net browsing through chrome, everything seems to be okay. even a notification from play store (ex- apps to update) sends the fon to a bootloop. i can manage to get inside the OS after hard reset with buttons, and then quickly disable wifi to stop updating apps and stop rebooting the fon again. strange issue. Any ideas?
