Ever since I rooted my Nexus 4 the Google Play Store is not recognizing it.
It has the stock ROM and i'm using Nova Launcher free version on it.
I used Wugfresh's tool kit to unlock the bootloader and root the phone. (http://forums.androidcentral.com/ve...s-root-toolkit-v1-6-2-updated-12-29-12-a.html)
Any suggestions?
I read in other threads that you had to install Gapps? But, those phones had a custom ROM on them, does that matter?
Thanks.

I've done that, still nothing.
Sorry, I should have clarified in op. I can access the google play store on my nexus 4 and I can download apps and everything.
It's when I try to access the google play store online through my desktop computer it doesn't recognize my nexus 4.

How about on your phone check and see if u have google play services using the same method i posted try clearing the cache then relaunch the google play store and finally go to settings google and sync it.Check and see if that fixes it.

hi.. I am experiencing the same thing. except that it won't work.
Before unlocking the bootloader and rooting, my nexus 4 is recognized in the playstore via desktop.
After unlocking bootloader and rooting, the phone was mysteriously removed from "my devices" in the playstore via pc.
Another thing, when I enter, about phone, it says "Nexus 4". Is this correct? I have a feeling that it should say LG E960 instead.
What should I do? Reflashing and doing all the rooting stuff is my final resort, and I really don't want to do that.
Thanks!

Yes! It is Nexus 4 in about phone. Its weird if it says iPhone
I love my Samsung Galaxy S3 (GT-I9300) but I have found
a real phone for me, Google Nexus 4 (LG-E960), So awesome!
Hello I have the same issue, I did the clear data of the Google Play App and Google Services and still not appearing in My Account in Google Play in the PC? need some help please, this happen since Root the Phone, is just rooted not change in the ROM not Change in the Kernel
Same problem. Stock ROM, no flashing of anything, just rooted with SuperSU, and the device disappeared from the Play Store.
I solved this by unclicking "Enable Superuser" in the SuperSU settings, restarting my phone, force stopping Google Play Services and Google Play Store, deleting the data from same apps, opening play store and downloading an app.
I've no idea how much of that was necessary, or whether my device would have showed up eventually anyway. Also I haven't been at it long enough yet to know if my device will disappear again after I re-enable SuperSU.
Had the same issue, fixed it simply:
Open SuperSU > Settings > Uncheck Enable Superuser
Download an app from the Play Store.
Open SuperSU > Settings > Check Enable Superuser
Device showed up instantly after downloading an app from the device.
Im having this same issue, i have tried all the suggestions in this thread with no luck
same for me
I rooted my Nexus 4 and now it doesn't appear in the web play store either! Followed every solution, but it's still not there :crying: any help please?
After trying all of the above options my device was still not showing in the store. I went to this link.
play.google.com/settings
I clicked on one of my devices and clicked the update option this loaded my Nexus 4 onto the list it is now available on the web store.
Thanks everyone for the advice and I hope this helps people who are still having issues.

I don't want to root my Nexus 4. I want to be able to use the Google Wallet feature. The only problem is there are some rooted apps I really enjoy and want to keep.
Is it possible to root, download the apps, give them the permissions, then unroot?
Rooting does not affect the use of Google Wallet at all. I use it all the time. It just displays "Unsupported device" at the top as a safeguard for Google is something happens like its stolen.
There's no problem with Google Wallet and getting root, so just go ahead and root away.

After unrooting via cwm, after rebooting when you launch the app that needs superuser permission will not get su permission and will ask you to root your device again..
So normally its not possible.
Hello,
I dont know if i am at the wrong forum or not but just say so.
I have a problem with my Nexus 4
On my Nexus 4 when i reboot it says "Unfortantly gaps has stop working." and my google play store doesn't work anymore after that when i try to open it it closes in an instance, i have seen tons of solutions on the internet and whenever i have tried one,my google play stores opens and works perfectly fine until i try to download an app instead of downloading it the google play decides to close,when i try to open it up it closes again.
Hope you can help me out
sincerly

Are you on a custom rom or stock?
Go to settings-apps and clear cache/data, then force stop. Reboot & try again.
If that didn't work, go to settings-accounts-Google-click on the email thing-settings (top right)- remove account. Then re-add your account and try what was failing earlier.

Wow, easy! Wait a bit.
Are you rooted?
Have you changed anything that could have caused the play store to misbehave like that?
Check in the settings of the play store, which version is it?

Ok, let's try this then: download and install the Play Store apk again; this isn't dangerous and shouldn't do anything but over-write the Play Store, however, it's software. Just a warning.
Unless someone else comes with a solution, you might have to root & flash a factory image (= back to stock).

My playstore will not update apps or install new apps.
1. I have logged out and back into my google account.
2. Tried deleting PlayStore app data and force quit.
3. Deleted data from google services app and restarted tablet.
4. Installed TWRP backup from 1 week ago.
Still can't get it to work. Sometimes it will begin to download an app and then stop. Mostly it just says downloading but nothing is happening. I'd appreciate suggestions or solutions. Thanks

Network is fine. Computers on network Down 4.88Mbps Up 0.58
Then call google.
They suggest factory reset.
try flashing a different rom along with a gapps package, that could fix it
Since everything else was working I did nothing, Didn't want to reset unless absolutely necessary. Today Google Play is working again. Must have been some communication issue with Google servers.
Did you updated the latest play store?? You can get if form this link.

I did not realize that you can flash gapps over stock. I've only done it in conjunction with installation of a ROM.
If I have further problems , I'll give it a try. thanks. Currently it's working normally.
