[Q] New S4 19500 Dose not allow to install ANYTHING - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello friends,
I've just brought a brand NEW S4, and I was using it for 2 weeks now, but because of work, I did not had the time to use it for anything besides phone calls. Now when I have some free time, I've decided to install some apps and games from Play Store on it.
And here lies the problem; I can not download anything from Play Store, or from Chrome or regular browser on my phone, I always get an error. That's a big problem, but it's not the only problem. For last 3 or 4 days I'm getting the unusually amount of lag, fallowed by "process system is closed".
What can I do? I've wiped the data from play store and from Chrome, but with no effect.
Note, that my phone is not rooted, and I've did not installed anything from "unknown sources" I've just used the phone as it was, right out of the box.
So what are my options? Can this somehow be fixed, or is the "trip" to the repair shop, my only option?
Thanks.

I'd tend to agree, try a factory reset buddy

Thanks for all your help, factory reset, did the trick!

Why is Google hogging up ALL of my data??!!

So I got a text from T-Mobile telling me that I went over my 2GB Data limit for the month. I was really confused because I barely even use 1GB in a whole month. I checked my settings and I saw what I have posted in the pictures. What can I do to stop this? Anyone ever had this happen to them? Any help will be appreciated!

Same problem as u. From my understanding it's the 4.3 update that is continuing to try and download in the background. There is a few fixes floating around but none of them have work for me.

[Q] Google Services - huge data usage
If you have a custom recovery, try yourzgapps.
I think you should have a look at your google+ backup options... It's probably backing up all your pictures.

google + settings, make sure your picture backup is set to wifi only.. each time you flash a new rom check that to ensure it's not hogging your data
To fix the google service data feast without losing battery life or connection to the servers do the following:
1) Download autorun manager.
2) Open it and picked advanced(recommended).
3) In setting check show system entries.
4) Go back to the main screen and on the left top corner pick system apps.
5) find google service framework and expands it.
6) find systemUpdateService$Receiver and uncheck it (should be the last one).
7) You can also uncheck systemUpdateService$SecretCode just in case( I got it disabled).
I check my Google+ settings and everything was checked off. I'm going to download autorun manager and try that. Thanks!

Very Slow PX3 Android Head Unit

Hello
Couple of years ago I bought and Android HU for my Kia Rio UB.
It is a PX3 RK3188 with Android 7.1.2, Quad Core and 2 Gb of RAM.
At the very first time the HU was extremely fast. Apps installed within 1-2 secs, updates were instant and everything was very smooth. But as time passed it became slower and slower. At this time a regular app update (ex Google Maps - file size in PlayStore should be about 30Mb) could last up to 20 min to complete....
HU is not overloaded, i have only factory apps (radio, video player etc) and a few others like spotify and sygic navi...
I have also done all rom updates i found on the internet and all MCU updates as well.
I did a lot of factory resets trying to fix this issue with no success, at the very first boot it is still a very slow HU.
Is there any reason this happens? Can I do something to fix it?

I have same problem. I dont know. I tried Clear ram .. but nothing change. Play store very slow. Programs very slow open
Somebody told me to do a clean install of the Android.
But i thought that when I do factory reset it is the same thing.
I guess he means to flash the rom from the beginning.... Not sure if it is going to work, but I have to try.
I solved the problem. I deleted the cache and all other data of the Google app and playstore app. I removed updates for the Google app. the device got pretty fast. do not google update.
I will give it a try too...
Thx
Did what you did but no significant speed change.
Maybe I will try to flash the rom again while wiping data.
Hello, i read this post and i agree with slow. Someone solved? Any tips ? Thanks in advance
I had the same issues with similar device. The workaround (working for me) was not to use google at all. So factory reset, no sign in to google account, no play store. Installed APKs manually from mirrors (I have only Waze, Here We Go and Deezer). Device is responsive again.
Device was useless with the same apps + Google Play Services.

How can I remove the Covid-19 notifications that mysteriously appeared on my phone!?!

Running XXXNoLimits, OOS 10.3, Elemental X kernal
Did not update anything this week. Now, under settings-google there is "covid-19 notifications". Had to have been either carrier pushed or a google back door. I don't even have a google account on my phone!
Shows "on/1app" but when I push it the screen just goes dark until I hit back.
Titanium and App ops can't find it.
I keep bluetooth off and only turn location on when I need Magic Earth Maps, then turn it back off, however, the pisses me the f**k off that it has been loaded on my phone.
I have a Samsug Tab running Lineage and it is not there, but the tab is wifi only. Tried Lineage 3 times on my phone and can not get Signal messenger to work and that is a deal breaker for me.
Anyway, how do we get rid it this??
Is this the screen you are referring to, but with different info populating it?

I don't have any Covid apps installed so for me there are no settings to turn on or off; this form of contact tracing is not yet available where I live.
The big question is what app on your phone is being detected as a contact tracing app.
Sent from my ONEPLUS A6013 using Tapatalk
How do the notifications look like? Regular notifications? Perhaps take a screenshot when you see another one. You should be able to trace which app (or system element) is spewing out these nuisances by long pressing the notification and take more actions by tapping the gear icon top right...
@franken..... I actually don't get to that screen, but that is the right place. Checked a another Android and that is the screen it goes to, mine just goes black.
@timmmmm...haven't gotten any notifications as I don't have any covd apps.
Settings does, however show "on/1 app". I am guessing a glitch since I have leashed google w xxx, Titanium, and App Opps.
I have not done the last system update. Don't have a google account, but do have a google Fi sim card since I live overseas and it works here.
I read google pushed this out as a new setting, for those that download covid apps, blah, blah, blah.......but HOW?
And how do we get rid of it. Article I read on a UK new site said "usage and diagnostics" is where you can turn it off and on, my phone was and is set to off, but I still wanna get rid of it.
That's part of a Google Play Services update, you can't remove it.
If you don't opt-in explicitly, it should not have any effect.
Do you really want to trust that? I personally wouldnt trust anything said or done at this point. For sometime my phone's been acting weird. Note 9 completely stock. But my g7 power rooted since day one with a global variant still runs like a charm. I'd rather just remove it or better yet permanently disabled it through some exploit.

What exactly do you think the phone is doing with that Covid-19 notification setting without an app to drive it? Contact tracer apps need to plug into the local health authority, and only a few places in the US are doing it because people are so suspicious of big tech. I would gladly participate but it's not available in my area.

The only way to get rid of it is to delete Google Play Services. That's how they snuck it in. On Android Pie it's simple. Just debloat via ADB using pm list packages prompt and voila! it's gone. On Android 10 it works the same EXCEPT none of the google apps, firefox, instacart, or anything like that will WORK. So you can de-google all you want - they've baked it into everything. It's something I'm struggling with now since I was forced to upgrade.

Wierd issue with play store...

I have a 11 gen Amazon fire tablet 10.1 HD with fire toolbox. The problem that is driving me crazy is the play services message keeps coming up. Even though it is updated it says all the time I had this before but I feel like the fix always worked to me it just keeps coming back. I need some advice. I have installed and reinstall plenty times same error shows up. Always look at the play services app it is always up to date. I tried clearing the cache and every trick I could find no luck.
Is this a usual thing for fire toolbox or is it just me? Can one of you help me please.?
I'm having the same problem. I look forward to solutions too.

I read on one of these sites that you should disable auto-updates for Amazon because the hybrid apps affect google apps.

I figured out a work around.. You were right I lt was auto update but Google play store.. I reset it and took auto update off and now it doesn't annoy me anymore every five seconds to update.. I only get the update message now when I try to link Google which is a major upgrade because I was ignoring it anyway.. So thanks
I never had auto updates turned on for the google play store and I got that notification once a day..hasn't happened since september 21, maybe they pushed an update that fixed some kind of issue we weren't aware of?

Google apps not working on mobile data

Hello,
I've a OP 8Pro running on Android 11 (11.0.9.9.IN11BBA), since the last hot fix with the recent security updates and fixes released by OP I'm facing an issue when using mobile data, if i try to browse google discover services I get the prompt as if i'm not connected to internet, then when trying to browse on google chrome i get the error "ERR_NO_SUPPORTED_PROXIES", however, if i open pages in private mode all is working fine, other services like WhatsApp or others apps are working fine and there is internet connection through 4G.
I tried clear up cache & data of google apps, reinstall google apps, reset default APN from the carrierr, reboots and other suggestions I've found browsing around forums but so far no luck... and is currently frustrating since common google things are not working.
Hello @pepi0
I have a One Plus 7 pro with Android 11 and I have the same problem. Did you found the solution?
Thanks a lot
Any news on this, I've got the same issue and alsoo tried everything the thread starter tried without luck
I've been struggling with this problem for more than a year and came up with the conclusion it has something to do with planned obsolescence or Oneplus phone.
My Android phone is 5 years old (Oneplus 5T) and I have the issue only with google apps. I've also tried to clear up cache & data of google apps, reinstall google apps, reset default APN from the carrierr, reboots and other suggestions but absolutely no change at all.
I found a temporary solution:
Whenever the app is not working, disable and enable mobile data and go back to the app .
It works for me for every google app but chrome.
I decided to buy a new phone with Black Friday and the issue is solved on the new phone, but I couldn't add any of my current credit cards to google wallet, because of a more annoying and unsolvable bug...
Since the new phone did not offer a huge User Experience difference from Oneplus I'm returming the phone and went back to my old OnePlus.
For the chrome issue I've decided to switch to another default browser and voilĂ !
Sorry it's not more helpful but hope it might be of any use...
Hey! It's me again!
Seeing that it seemed related to OnePlus phones from every message in the thread I just called OnePlus support and got the following troubleshooting:
1) Go to Google Play Store settings and set App Download preferences to "Ask me everytime"
2) Open Google Play Store App info, then reach the 3dots menu on the top right and uninstal updates.
3) It will ask if you want to replace the app with Factory Version. Tap Yes
4) Do the same for every Google App having issues
5) You might need to restart the phone or the apps won't work
The key is to NEVER update the apps again and make sure they wont update automatically. It's kind of annoying to say the least but (for now...) I won't have to buy another phone.

Hi, need to add that I've LG G8s, not an OnePlus. But the exact same symptoms. Reverting the GApps isn't a possibility for me, since LG rolled out 2 big updates, the last one before christimas, bringing the device to Android 12.
I tried several things the last months:
e.g. I tried the SIM card of my girlfriend, who has another provider, and everything worked on mobile data. So I asked my provider for a new SIM card, reset APN, no changes, no GApps working...
I then ended up hard resetting the device and installing everything from the scratch again, no change.
But I've made another interesting observation... Installing a VPN (WIndscribe) and connecting to it while on mobile data will make all GApps work again. As soon as I disconnect, the're offline again?!
So my conclusion as a noob, there must be some wrong settings (in the system, google dependent), which even with hard reset an APN reset aren't fixed. Any ideas?
