Market Server Error

Anyone having an issue with the market where you can download apps etc. But if you try and look at "My apps" or "My downloads" it gives you a "server error has occurred. Retry, or cancel and return to the previous screen?"
Started last night, tried everything I can think of.
Anyone see this before?

Ditto for me. FYI, my market app was an apk install. I didn't wait for automatic update.

There's my error, occurs after clocking my downloads,
Tried:
Fix permissions,
Clear cache/data of market app
Clear davlik cache
Clear cache in clockwork
Install apk of new market app
Uninstall updates of market app
Market doctor in titanium
Nandroid to my last known good configuration
Anyone have another idea short of factory reset/flash new rom? That's my next step but I wanna give it a few days to see if it possibly could just be a Google server error for me.

I've been having the same problem since yesterday with different roms and new and old market.

I also have this problem, tested on every Rom in Rom Manager. I believe the problem us that I am using google as apps for my main email address. I tested with a factory reload with my gmail address and the market worked. Then I tired adding an credit card to my google apps account from my pc without any luck.
I previously made purchases with my google app account, but am no longer able to even view previous transactions. The problem is on google ends, but I have no ideal in to fix the problem or who to contact.
To complicate things further any new google app account works in purchasing apps, just the account that had previous purchases before google upgraded google apps to allow google apps account to work across google products

Good to know its not just my issue. And FYI, im using a regular Gmail account, not Google Apps account, so at least it doesnt appear to be an issue limited to that for me.

Had the same problem running Redemptive rEVOlution 2.1.3. I just started yesterday. I didn't update the Market, tried clearing cache/data/dalvik cache. Also on 3g and on wi-fi. I did update the kernel a couple of days ago and can't remember if I accessed the market since then (I think so though). I finally gave up and decided to flash to a different ROM today. Going back to SR for a little while. I am also not using a Google apps account.

Did that fix your problem? flashing a new rom?

I've been using the same ROM and Lou's #4 kernel for a couple weeks now. Only recently I've notice issues with the Market. I'm sure future updates will clear things up.

For the most part. I see it sometimes but I can hit retry and it eventually goes through. I also loaded the new market though.

For the record, I have the same issue on my Desire HD.

I installed the market early myself. Regular Google Account.

I was receiving the market error as well but about 30 minutes ago it started working.

Same here.
I got to work, tried it on both WIFI and 3G, appears to be all good now.
Must have just been a google server side issue after all.
Edit: and I did get automatically updated to the new market once I went in the second time. FWIW

Google services

After the new update, I noticed that Google services remains high up on the usage list under my battery stats. I am not rooted and stock. I haven't changed any other of my Google settings since the update nor have I installed any new apps. I installed better battery stats, and although phone is sleeping, under partial wake locks it shows nlpwakelock at the top which is some sort of Google service. Any ideas? Thanks

I had this also. This is what I did.
Uninstall Google maps update from Applications. Clear cache/data (whatever is there) and reboot.
Update Maps from play store.
I found this by searching Google, it worked for me, hopefully for you. Now if I can figure out a good screen setting so that won't kill my battery.

I haven't received the update yet but the last few days Google services has used the most battery where normally the display is the highest. I checked my sync settings and my contacts, calendar, ect had errors and it said at the bottom "sync experiencing problems" I unchecked everything and rechecked one by one. Now I don't even see Google services on the battery stats anymore

Sync was working fine, and tried the above maps suggestion and still getting that darned Google services.

Well, it appears it was google+ related. I just got an update for google+ and Google services no longer remains on top of the battery stats for now. I'll have to keep an eye on it and report back.

Google had a major outage this week that affected a lot of the apps that use google services. The high drain might have been caused by the outage and apps continually trying to sync with down servers.
Sent from my icrap 2 using Tapatalk HD

Just out of curiosity, my phone has been running for just over 16 hours and Google services is still showing in battery stats and that it's kept my phone awake for 12 minutes. Although my battery seems to be getting good life, I'm curious what others are showing for awake time for google services. Thanks guys.

Google Services accounted for 68% of my battery, but yet somehow I still managed to get awesome battery life (25hrs).

I am getting pretty good battery as well. I'm starting to think that perhaps with the new update that something has changed in the way Google services is being reported. Nonetheless, would still like to know what others are showing since the update.

And then turn them back on?? I use Location Services and Google Now all the time!

i have google service use up 40% of my battery life never use to do that
i guess with GPS - and Apps try to use your location and Google now what causing the google services to use up battery

OK, so after some Googling, it seems this is a widespread problem across many different devices, not just specific to our S4 or to Samsung. This must be on Googles end...possibly network location servers or such? This seems to be happening at random, over the past few months and magically cures itself just ass randomly.

It's still appearing in my battery stats list somewhere in the middle, but what's odd is even with that, I got 27 hours of battery life with half that time over 3g network... Google now on, 2 hours voice calls and 3.5 hours screen time. Perhaps something with Google servers reporting Google services changed but not affecting battery? What type of battery life is everyone else getting?

I've been having this issue since I updated to MF9. I'd see Google Services as the main battery culprit in the built in battery usage display. When looking in BBS it showed up as NLPwakelock. While searching for an answer I came across a post in the International S4 forum talking about the nlpwakelocks.
In the thread rl421403 states the issue is caused by Play 4.1.6, which I had. I just updated my Play Store to 4.1.10 to see if that resolves the issue for me. I'll report back in a few days but this looks very promising.

Malware issue?

So one night, after a few too many, I stupidly downloaded a version of Madden off the internet. After minimal research, my intoxicated brain figured, what the hell. After later reading this game was most likely malware,I deleted it and anything I could find in storage that seemed related. Not sure if this is the culprit, but ever since around then I get these yellow pop ups in my Yahoo mail app. See attached photo. I don't get them in my Yahoo mail on my pc. If I click on it, (had to try it once) it takes me to a "web page not available" screen. I've since done a complete factory reset, manually gone into cwm recovery and formatted everything, including the SD. Flashed a new Rom, Goldeneye, and once booted, first installed Yahoo mail app, fresh from market, and only Yahoo mail app and bam, Yellow malware looking email pops up first thing. I even changed Yahoo password on my pc, installed trend security, and at one time Norton. Neither showed any issues. Only have issues with Yahoo mobile, no other apps. Haven't seen any abnormal data, or messaging usage, and no one has informed me of receiving suspicious email from me yet. What is it, and how the hell do I get rid of it?

Google play services eating up battery

Hi, i am noticing that google play services and the Nlp collector wakelock is eating up my battery, almost 25% of it.
is anyone else seeing google play services use that much battery?? Are there any good solutions?
ive turned of google now and this is still happening!
TYIA!

I'm getting this too. It has cut my battery life in half (if not more). Last night I had about an hour of screen on time when I hit 20%.

Are you running a ROM? Stock? I'm on Beans build 2 with a bunch of stock apps removed and my battery life is great. I'm still at 90% after 8 hours of use.

Mine seems to be much more sporadic and vague:

So far, this has been the WORST phone I've ever used in terms of battery life. That coupled with the not charging in USB ports is just ridiculous. Samsung needs to get their [email protected]*T together and fix this kernel.
EDIT: Here's some detail into what "Android Core Apps" is:
How in the hell is Contacts Storage and User Dictionary among the 3 others using 22% of a 3200 mAh battery?

NLP is for location services. It's some sort of bug in 4.3. I think the only option for now is to disable ALL location services until you need them. Hopefully Google corrects this crap soon.

You mean 8 hours off the charger? If you were at 90% after 8 hours of screen on time, the government would confiscate your phone and turn it over to DARPA for testing.

I found this in another thread. I forced closed Google play services via application manager. Then I used titanium backup to un install it. Then I went into recovery and wiped dalvik. At reboot it optimizes apps. Then I opened maps and it asked to install Google play from the play store. Hoping it fixes it. Here's the original post.

I see you have the Google Services battery hog feature enabled. I had the same issue. Here is how to put Google Services in its place:
1. Stop Google Services via TiBU or Settings > Apps, then uninstall it
2. Reboot to recovery & clear dalvik. Reboot system
3. Open Maps. You will be prompted to install Google Services from Play Market, do it
4. Enjoy better battery life

Google play services drain - Sensors?

Hi,
Don't know if it's related to OOs 5.0.1 but I noticed a quite important battery drain with Google play services (dirty flashed following a clean Oreo Flash).
I'm not sure but I think it may be due to motion sensors usage like you can see on the snapshot.
What I tried without success:
1/ Removed "Modify system settings" permission (Google play services)
2/ Installed AKT (X.A.N.A. battery extreme)
3/ EnableDozeForGMS through TWRP (doesn't seems to work on OOs)
4/ Removed following permissions for Google play services: "Body sensors" and "Microphone"
5/ Uninstalled (Titanium) GMail app
6/ Google settings > Getting around, deactivated "Google voice & Audio activity"
7/ Blocked all wakelocks on EXKM (Flash kernel)
Going to try:
8/ Reactivating aggressive Doze in battery options
9/ Sys Patcher Magisk module (force Doze for Google play services)
Thanks for your advice. [emoji846]

That's very weird. I have GSam battery monitor too and I don't have ANY sensor on Google play services. I have them all, exactly like you have posted, but on Android System.
What version of Google Play Services do you have installed?

It's probably because of the dirty flash. I used to experience similar problems so I stopped doing dirty flashes of OOS updates. I haven't had any weird battery drain issues since.

Yes that's weird!
I checked Android system, there's also same kind of sensor but there's a lot more usage on Google play services! (14h)
Google play services' version installed is: 11.9.51 (440-177350961)

I just tried to update Google play services to the latest beta version available from APK mirror (11.9.73).
Will see whether there's a benefit!

I have the updated version installed but it doesn't seem to make any difference.

I'm also experiencing heavy Google Play Services wakelocks, especially net scheduler. The old fix using MyAndroidTools doesn't work for me on Oreo. Since Xposed is now out, we could try Amplify I guess.

Ok here. Just wipe the data of play services, and u are good to go!

For everyone suffering from related wakelocks, and didn't pay for Amplify/don't have Xposed, get WakeBlock from XDA or Playstore.

Updated OOs to Codename Phoenix (clean flash).
Problem solved, of course.

Is it true that when you block some wakelocks, appear some others?? And how can we stop google play services from waking the device? Its so annoying!!
You can see at screenshot that i haze zero wakelocks, cause i blocked them all with Wakeblock app. But still my device woke up 236 times in 2.45 minutes cpu time? What's going on?

You have accounts that needs to be synced all the time? Then they use Google cloud messaging or play services to access the internet. Since(I don't remember the exact version) android 4 or so no app can directly sync accounts without Google play services.

Just turn off "Backup my data" and problem solved for me

Does anyone have a fix that works for Non Root users? There does always seem to be some problem with android battery life in every other device I have used. Also why disable certain features when I was getting the same battery life with the pre installed OOS without disabling those features.
A smartphone is for productivity & if I always have to waste my time finding a fix for it I think I am better off with an IPhone next. Atleast the standby drain is nil, it uses battery when I use my phone as simple as that.

I have an iPhone 6s too and it drains a lot in flight mode and even when using it it's not better than then android. Accounts needs to be synced too in the background as well as location and you need to disable a lot out of the ios box before battery life on iPhone is better.
Now back to topic:
As I mentioned above, battery draining is a really individual thing which cannot be fixed by one click. There's a big battery guide which you should consider to read(if not known): https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/general/guide-extreme-battery-life-t3095884
