[Q] Limited market (Google Play) - Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Weirdest thing is going on in every single update I've been applying lately, let is be 7.2 official or KANG RC1, ICS nightlies or whatever (though I haven't reverted to the stable 7.1 just yet):
After a while, if not immediately, my market aka play store is unable to find me even the most trivial apps (such as YouTube). I AM able to install them after Googling and applying via Play Store, once prompted to select an action.
Is something going on that I'm not aware of lately?
My setup: internal install with data + cache + dalvik wipe

Maybe it is the telephone permission. Check Sam I am's ics nightly build thread.

Go to applications and clear the cache on google play. Then clear the data on google services framework, and restart the nook.
That's what worked for me. Hope it helps

I have the same problem with Swiftkey Tablet X. I had it installed previously. I recently re-installed Kang's latest 7.2 after wiping. I also ran DizzDen's IMEI generator and V6 Supercharger. Swiftkey Tablet X was listed in the Play Store, but it said it was incompatible with my device. I cleared the Play Store cache, cleared the Google Services Framework data the rebooted. Now I can not find it listed at all. Any suggestions?

Are you doing any build.prop edits? I have used Samsung GalaxyS edits since before I included the ability in the IMEI Generator... never have market device visibility issues.

I haven't done any manual build.prop edits. I have installed a ROM fresh and used your IMEI app at least 30-40 times. (Thanks very much, BTW!) The only thing I have done differently than normal is run the V6 Supercharger script. This is the first time I have tried to install it since the Market has changed to Google Play, though.

[Q] Getting full Marketplace and Framework Issues

I have tnt lite running on my tablet, and went through the full instructions on the guide on this forum of installing it and the marketplace and flash fixes. However I never got the full marketplace on my tablet (no angry birds, lots of apps missing). I also would often get an error every so often about the Google Framework Services having and error, and recently my tablet would reboot often while i was browsing. Then flash started having issues of not loading sometimes, etc. So what I did was I redownloaded titanium backup, installed it, force closed Google Framework Services and Market, went into titanium and wiped data for Google Framework Services and Market and then tried to open the market and got the error. I then rebooted the device and I tried to access market. At first it wasnt opening so i rebooted again and then it started working, however it still isnt the full marketplace. Also randomly the Google Framework Services error came up again. How can I get the full marketplace working? Would you recommend that I backup this rom and just reflash with the 2.2.1 tnt and start over again? I dont have much data on it and can start from scratch easily.
Ok so I have gotten rid of the Framework error and stability issues. I did a factory reset which seemed to have cured a lot of those issues. However I still dont have the full andriod market. I followed the steps again but I keep getting a limited version of the market with barely any apps. Is there something else I need to do to get this working better? I have heard of people getting the full market with angry birds, etc on it, so I know it can be done..
Some of the roms, sepcifically the Vega one, I wasnt able to get the market to work on correctly. I finally did by doing a factory reset, installing Cyanogen mod, Cyanogen gapp pack, and than flashing the Vega one over it without a reset.. and then the usual market fix. And it finally worked. There has to be a better more reliable way though. (From my understanding, it should work out of the box with Vega since it uses the release key instead of the test key in build.prop. But it does. )
I don't think the "fix" has given *anyone* completely full market, has it?
I've done the fix on TNT Lite, newest release, and newest VEGAN and I am still missing apps here and there.

I seemingly have access to the full market. I applied the fix referenced on the TNT tutorial page:
Setting / Applications / Manage Applications / Running / "Clear cache"; then "Force stop"
Then go up to Google Services Framework and "Force stop"
Open Titanium Backup; click on "Backup/Restore" and scroll to Google Services Framework 2.2.1 - and "Wipe data"
Go back to Home and launch Market. You should receive an error message (if not, repeat steps above).
Reboot and you should be good to go.
I also installed the latest update to the market (via update.zip) referenced here

Correct, to the best of my knowledge, even with a good build fingerprint in build.prop (now pre-done for you in Vegan ROM) and after applying Market Fix, we still seem to be lacking a few apps here and there from Market. Perhaps 2-5% of the apps in Market are still missing. Off the top of my head, Pocket Legends, Tank Hero, one of the MAME ports are known to be still missing. Some other minor apps.
CyanogenMod is the only ROM that apparently doesn't have this issue, though I haven't tried it to verify that for myself.

Error 921- Cannot DL anything from Market?

I know others have experienced this error. No one mentions a fix. Just flashed lightspeed 4.3 and its virtually unusable without being able to download from the market. Can some kind soul enlighten me?

This self resolved after about 30 minutes of trying.
When that happened to me I deleted the market and flashed newer gapps

Before doing all that, try clearing cache and data from the Market (now called "Google Play Store") in App settings. That did the trick for me.
I had to manually select my Gmail account from within Google Play..
how I fixed

if you're not using Clockwork rom manager you should. I have cwm5.0 and I rooted my phone with cm9-ics and was getting a 921 error. I went and ran the "permissions fix" in CWM and everything works fine now
Permissions fix in recovery can cause its own set of problems, like borking your contacts photos, and a couple other things I can't remember off-hand. Easily fixable, but it would probably be better to target a more specific fix for the Market/Play rather than trying such a global fix. Just my opinion...
Google Play cant update apps error 921
yo,
i am running sgs2 with CheckRom RevoHD v4 and had error 921 on google play/androidmarket. restarted phone seems fine all updates worked.
jess
This error is still happening
its not a problem with your devices, i cant even see my apps on the website. its a google play glitch and is wide spread but not every device appears to be affected in the same way. very strange.
i have tryed all fixes and still the same
921 could be only CM
After installing 3.5.16 it gave me the 921 error.
I have a Moto XT701, and I use ava's version of CM7.
could this be related to CM specifically? Anyone got the error with a stock ROM?
next time it happens can you log into google talk, I remember back in the day if that wasnt signed in market would be borked
Solution
After some digging here is what worked for me:
I added my wifes gmail account to accounts and sync
I changed google play store to the new account
I checked to see if updates were working (they were)
I changed google play store back to my account
I removed my wifes gmail account (system settings > accounts and sync > select account > remove account
It is working fine now. I can update and download without error.

Hi,
I have a Navon Platinum 10 tab, ICS 4.0.4 on it. I had this error, too.
I read some alternatives for fixing google play errors, but I tired to delete my account and add acount and clear cache and so one... I resolved that by this way:
- turn on your tab device
- do not start play store application!
- in Settings-->Applications menu, on All tab search for gogle play application, and clear cahe and data too. You need to do this only once time.
- run Root Browser on your device ( if you have'n this, than download, install, or you may use Root Explorer if you have)
- find vending.apk in System/App folder
- long click on it, a local menu will appear. Chose Permissions.
- set permissons 777 for this file ( klikk on every checkbox).
- close all running apps
-restart your device, and enjoy
It works fine, Since I set this permissions, I don't get any errors from google play,
Hope, it will helps.
P.S.: sorry for my misstakes in english language

[Q] [Mokee OS/Crazy Speed] Google play services wont's recognize my phone!

So I intalled this ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2108027 on my Bayer Motorola Defy MB525 and everything looks great, really fast system and saw no critical bugs.
At first I intalled without aroma installer and flashed gapps. Google Market didn't update. I tried manually updating it but I kept receiveng this message:
"Google play services, which some of your application rely on, is not supported by your device. Please contact the manufacturer for assistance"
Now I intalled with aroma installer and the gapps are included. The Google Play is the old one but it doesn't update nor let me use google services. I can't use a lot of apps [Google+, Youtube login, Foursquare, Hangouts (new Talk), ] without that and I keep receiving the annoying message all the time.
Does anyone knows what can I do? Any manual configuration I can do, like changing the phone name on build.prop or something?
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Okay so I found out that this rom have a lot of redundancies about baseband selection and it doesn't work very well with brazilian baseband so thanks for anyone who read this and try to help.
did you try wipe dalvik/cache? or clear google play data first?

[Q] Play store does not update automatically

Hello,
since recently my play store does not update my apps automatically anymore. Manually it works fine as I can see my apps require update but this should work on its own.
Using Dirty Unicorns ROM and iirc the update worked before but just recently it stopped somehow. I tried to clear cache and delete data for the play store app but did not change anything.
Maybe the update automatically setting in play store is turned off?
Nope, although in many cases it may be the most obvious solution but I checked already
What Gapps are you using ?
I can see that DU includes TRDS, a Slimkat rom feature.
We do have the same problem on Slimkat, it's due to the modified playstore included in the slim gapps (the one modified so it can change from white to black with the TRDS feature).
Download this : (it's safe, it comes from android police and i used it myself)
http://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=23487008491963661
and install it.
You will get the latest playstore, unmodified, and things will be fixed (apps auto update).
The only downside is that your playstore won't be black anymore, even if TRDS is switched to on...

[BUG] Google Play Store no installed app after clearing cache+data | apps cost again

Hi everyone,
it seems the Play Store has got the same problem as years ago. After a clearing of cache and data, I have and empty installed app list and if I try to download apps bought time ago, they cost again.
I talked about the problem and it seemed to be related with detaching script on roms or apps like iytbp. No solutions found over the internet works (delete and readd the account, clearing cache partition, etc).
The only way to restore it was to restore back a previous titanium backup, data only, from a clean installation or from an uncleared play store.
It happened to me on XXX 9.1 but it's not rom related, 'cause it happened again on a clean installed stock Oreo 8.0 rom after installing iytbp with detach.plz method. But today a guy tried on a full stock Oneplus 5 and it happened the same (no root, no unlocked bootloader).
Can you please try if you have the same problem? After a Play Store backup, of course. I already sent a google feedback about that and, if you have the same problem, a google operator suggested to feedback them about that. Thanks in advance for the attention.
P.S. I tried the same on my Wiko Fever (full stock and updated) and it seems to have no problem at all. It also happended on Nougat, but I have not tested a lot.
Same issue here. I've also used the iYTBP detach script, you say it is caused by this? Have you found a solution? I'd rather not have to do a whole factory reset seeing as I don't have TB.
EDIT:
Found the solution to the problem for me. Not sure if this will fix it for good but for now Play store will update and installed apps show up. This solution requires root access. This is what I did:
1. Make full backup in TWRP.
2. Go to "system/priv-app/phonesky", cut the phonesky.apk (apk file for the Play store) file out of the directory to for example your documents folder.
3. Do a full (regular) reboot.
4. Copy the same apk you just move away form it's directory back to it's place (system/priv-app/phonesky).
5. Do another full reboot.
6. Wait about 30 seconds and the Play store should back on your device and functioning normally.
EDIT 2:
Issue where apps don't recognise that the user has purchased it still persists. After uninstalling the app and reinstalling it this issue got fixed.
