Hi guys,
I have been a Nexus 10 user since its release, my other android devices currently are a Nexus 4 and a i9305t, previously a Gnex and a Nexus S.
All my android devices are rooted and on a custom rom.
Primarily, the Nexus 10 has been difficult due to battery life and charging mostly. I have been using PA 3.0x for the past few months, and I decided to update to PA 3.6 with the latest Gapps yesterday, since then I have not been able to resolve my "Google Play Magazine has stopped" error.
I have at this point done a full factory reset, formatted the internal SD card, and now tried a different rom (Revolt 4.4) all of which have been unsuccessful at fixing the Google Play Magazine app..
I have googled for a solution with very little success. I am hoping that someone here can help me out.
cheers
Marcel
have you tried reinstalling (maybe redownloading) gapps. or uninstall play magazines and reinstall from the market?
good luck

Hi Sdmark,
I have attempted to uninstall GP Magazines app using titanium backup, and reinstalling via the playstore. I have also tried a factory reset with a different/older set of gapps with no success.
This issue has been resolved as of 45 mins ago. I have been talking to Google Play store support from Utah (I am from Melbourne, Australia)
after submitting my error logs, the issue seems to have resolved itself automatically.
I had done nothing on the tablet since talking to the support (about 3 hours ago) till 45 mins ago where I just decided to give it a go while sitting on the porcelain throne and no FC this time. So as far as I can tell, the fix was something on their end of things, at least thats what i suspect... the FC happens just as GP Magazines signs in.
*im an idiot, problem is still there in landscape.. didnt even think about the different viewing modes.. so the problem is only happening while landscape.
Thanks the assistance though, very much appreciated.
edit: Please dont close the thread, I have realized that Google Play Magazines does not have the problem when in portrait mode... the moment i go to landscape it crashes... is this a rom issue?
bump! still a problem, 99% instant FC when in landscape mode... (1% is when the magazine is opened from portrait, it sometimes doesnt FC when tilted to landscape.. the moment you leave the magazine and get back to the magazine selection menu in Landscape, it will FC)
pretty much the only reason i pick up this tablet over any other device lying around is for magazine reading
I have no idea. I actually use the magazines app too, and have had no problems with it. I'm using cleanrom.
I've had the same problem, does seem to work for a minute or 2 if I clear all data and reinstall the app ...but after collecting my account data it FC's again - this has been going on for months and Google Play support haven't been able to reproduce or fix the issue for me....really frustrating

I was running CM9 latest without any issues. I've downloaded a bunch of free apps...no problem.
All of a sudden, I can't download some FREE apps any more. I get the message :
"Error processing purchase"
Lots of people are having this kind of issue and I haven't found a fix for it yet. I have not tried uninstalling it and reinstalling yet.
I've tried clearing the data/cache in the app area. That did not help.
Its really odd.....some of the freebie's I can.....some I can't
Time and a couple of reboots seemed to fix that same problem (on a different ROM) for me.
I don;t think Google has all the bugs worked out of the new Play Market.. I get random errors on various apps when I try to update or download. Most work, but some can't finish the download or won't download at all.
Thanks......but very weird
Yeah, strange things happen on the new Play Market even on my stock Motorola Droid X2
So I shut the nook down for a while...started it up again and now I can download free apps again. No changes.
The problem was going on for days before I posted here.

Nahhhhhh , Google is playing with their Play implementation , getting ready for their big movie and cloud grand opening. I would expect random issues for a few weeks.
Something to look forward to!
PLAY is been a real mess.
It is not only in CM9, and it seems to affect only certain apps. I have the same problem with one game that I had installed on other SD several times before but have trouble today. While other apps installed fine.
Any possibility of reverting back to an earlier Market app if this continues? I don't have this problem (yet) but always anticipate the worst from Google. Running racks' triple boot now, everything hunky-dory.
I think the problems are on Google's server side not the app. I have seen reports from people that reverted back to old market and still had the problems.

I can verify that. The apps that I have problem to install yesterday, it has not problem today.
For some reason while I'm using the N7, just browsing various websites or looking at videos, the error notification "unfortunately maps has stopped" pops up.
I searched around for a fix or even other threads about this on the N7 but have not seen any.
I've tried re-installing the Maps application on my N7 but it seems like it can't be uninstalled. I disabled the app and the error message stopped, but when I wanted to use the Map app, I had to enable it, and after use did not disable and noticed the error notification pop up at around the same frequency.. (every other day or so.)
I have not rooted the device, and have only downloaded/installed a handful of apps; am using Apex launcher as an alternative for the lack of landscape view on the home screen. Thanks in advance for any help.
Same problem I'm having. Not rooted, completely stock.

I'm also having this problem with the Nexus 7 and CM10, but good to know it also happens in stock, saves me some trouble.

Have you tried this: Goto Settings > Apps > Maps > Force stop, clear cache, clear data. Then try rebooting your N7.

Have you tried fixing permissions in recovery or through ROM Manager?
I've tried both, and I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling maps, it still happens. Yesterday it interrupted me twice while I was playing a game. It's starting to get annoying.
Yes this is also an annoying issue for me.

If you don't *use* maps, and all the attendant programs (like local, navigation, etc) you can always go into your appdrawer, longhold the app and drag it up to App Info. (or go settings>apps>maps) and choose to "disable" the program.
(This *should* be possible stock, not rooted. I may be wrong, I didn't leave my N7 stock very long ;P)
I might have figured it out. Go to maps, settings, location settings, location reporting, select "do not update your location". So far no message this past day or so (crossing fingers).
[edit] Spoke too soon, just got one.
Call Google Apps support.
I had this issue happen to me for the Gmail app, and unfortunately, this was happening on two devices, occured after Factory Resetting two devices, and removing and re-adding the account.
Google might have changed/switched a setting, and it may have affected your ability to access any saved data you have on your account.
Same problem here, maps has stopped. Happend when my N7 was stock, andre now when it is rooted.
FWIW, this has never happened to me again since I installed AOKP some days ago.

what's aokp? i still have this problem on my n7 and it bothered me again today to the point of googling for a solution, and what do you know, my own thread pops up.
AOKP is a custom ROM. Build 2 just came out a couple of days ago and build 3 is on the way. Cyanogenmod 10 may also have fixed this problem but I haven't tried any recent builds. Also, maps was updated very recently, are you on the last version?
Same Here
i have same problem with google maps on my xperia neo after i flashed my last rom.
after a fresh installation. it s runnning but when i restart i have that message "unfortunatly.. app stoped"
this stuff happened to me all the time on my N7, part of the reason i returned it.
note 2 l900 Unfortunately maps has stopped using favorites
No solutions recommended thus far have worked (fix permissions, clear cache, disable download reenable).
Every time I select a favorite or home or work in maps, it crashes andi get that error message. If I select from the history or manually enter, there's no issue.
Rooted stock Android 4.1.1. Version 6.10 maps.
But not the updated version. I hate the maps updated version. It worked fine until about a month ago (give or take).
Why are so many having this issue?
It may be the same prob fr evry1....or diff prob with similiar manifestation...post your logcats if you can....

Sorry for not responding with them ... I stopped following the thread when I found out the glory of Waze (and installed Whompasaurus)
i've read somewhere that could be a font size problem, go to settings and configure the smallest font size and try again, to me i didnt worked, but somehow the crash is delayed 1 or 2 seconds more
edit: i fixed it, my solution was to change the language
on android 4.4.2 (paranoid) you go to settings>>language & input>> english (United states)
don't know why i've set it to [ Developer] Accented English (zz_ZZ), that was the problem
another solutions i've read:
clean cache app
turn off phone, remove battery, wait 5 secs, turn on
flash gapps downloaded from your custom rom web
reset gps and agps, you can do this with "gps status" (search on play store)
try with another wifi, or mobile data plan (some people had problems with wep encrypted wifi's)

I was gonna buy a new tab cuz i use map regularly
Not sure if this is the right place to post or not.
I just purcahsed a new Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1. Set it up and noticed the Android Market Icon was still there??? Went to download some apps and it prompted me to download Playstore. After Playstore was downloaded imediatly started freezing up and forcing close. Uninstalled, re-booted, reinstalled again and same problem. Unistalled, did master reset, did another initial set-up, went to Playstore and same problem. Wasted an hour of my life on the phone with T-mobile customer care and tech support then wasted another 35 minutes with Samsung tech support with no positive outcome. So this moring I turn to the internet and the real experts. Doing a quick google search I see that in the past week or two there have been a huge influx of Playstore complaints that sound similar to mine and it appears they are not device or carrier specific. Has Google come out an said there is a problem? Anyone else on here having any issues? FYI, I did confirm that I am running the most recent updates.
I checked and I do have the most recent system update on my device. I am not a "geek" but have been using Android devices since before they were availabel to the public and this Samsung is my 6th Android device so I am not a newb, that being said I am ready to throw my new Tab through a wall because I can usually work my way through glitches and get them corrected on my own. I was using a crappy old Viewsonic G-Pad before this, I thought I was upgrading but thet old rooted G-Pad is far better than this garbage.
Thanks in advance.
so are you saying you are on android version 4.0.4? that version should have come with the "play store".
I haven't had any issues myself, but you can try going into settings-applications, and then select the market/play store and clear data and cache. You can also uninstall updates if it still acts up.

Yes, it is version 4.0.4 yet it has an Android Market icon not a play store icon, I was very suprised when I saw that icon, I have not seen it in months on my other devices, i thought it was a thing of the past. Once I go into android market and try to install an app it then tells me I need to upgrade to Play Store, I click continue, download play store and that is when all hell breaks lose. Once I unistall the Play Store update it runs fine until I try to download another app through the market.
Not sure if this could help, but have you tried, instead of the factory reset, clearing data on Play Store and Google Services Framework, restarting and trying again? Ran into some Play Store trouble this past week and this seemed to solve it
I am having the same problem. I just got this 10.1 t-mobile tablet. I can't do anything because it is constantly popping up saying play store has stopped unexpectedly. I have uninstalled the update, cleared the data and cache. Nothing is working. I am essentially dead in the water as this pops every 30 seconds.
Saw the same problem on my friend tab
My only solution was to root and put cm9 on it. Works great now.

I like to read on the N7, and initially, there were some of my old books marked properly with the blue dot (available for offline reading).
I recently purchased a new book. While it downloads in a heartbeat on my other Android devices, on the N7 it's been stuck at barely a blue hint on the pin circle. No change in days.
I clicked on the other pins, and all I managed to do is make my books now UNavailable for offline reading - and they are not downloading anymore.
Has anyone here had a similar experience? If so, did you find a way to fix it?
They have done a little behind the scenes fixes because of a few interactive magazines not downloading. I've emailed them about it and a few days ago they emailed me back saying it's fixed and recommended clearing data and cache on the play magazines app. It fixed my issues.
Thank you! I'm going to attempt that.
Fixed

Thank you again for your suggestion! Here's how I fixed my issue:
In settings, I located the Play Book app. There was no way to clear the cache, but I was able to uninstall the updates and restore the app to the original factory settings.
Then I opened play books again, chose my Google account, and all my books downloaded very swiftly.
Glad it worked out for you you are probably good to update it to the latest version.
Hi all, First of all I have CM10.1 20130210 on my phone. (Had 20130208 when I noticed the problem, But I dont think thats the cause)
I normally check for CM updates & Play Store every night. Yesterday I wanted to check the Play Store but when I opened it it took me straight to the Categories page (It normally takes me to some "General Featured" page).
When I go into any of the categories it takes me to more categories into that one (Games>Racing/Action/Puzzle/etc) it didnt do that before.
After I go into one of those its just a grey screen, The store is blank.
I tried going into My Apps & Its blank. If I go into the All tab though they all show, Clicking on one of those apps does take me to its page & If I try to download a previously uninstalled app it does download and work properly.
Something very weird: The same thing happens in the Webstore, No app shows when going into Editor's Choice & When manually going into the categories its just blank. Going into app pages via my own apps do work.
Ive tried clearing the data of the Play Store (Settings>Apps>All>Google Play Store>Clear Data)
Ive tried reflashing my phone (Thats why I went from 20130208 to 20130210)
Ive tried Force Stopping, Clearing data & Rebooting
Ive tried unsyncing & Resyncing my Google Account
Ive tried uninstalling & Reinstalling Gapps (goo.im/gapps)
Any ideas on how I can fix this? I ran out of ideas myself...
Some screens of what happens, the one with the categories is what the store opens to, the other one is what happens if i go anywhere else.
Ive been trying to fix this all day & Most things Ive found seem to be fixed by wiping the cache or returning the DPI to its default state.
Thing is, I already tried option 1 & I never changed the DPI on my phone. (I dont even know how to do it)
Just tried changing the DPI & Nothing...
I installed Best Apps Market on my phone (Had to google it & Make it directly lead me to the Play Store page coz the Play Store doesnt work)
Basically you can browse apps through there & When you want to dowmload it takes you to the Play Store (Native app) page.
It did work & Display apps properly but they all said that they werent available in my country. I tried a VPN on my PC & Bam, Play Store works.
That seems to be the problem, Somehow my country got messed up but I cant seem to change it. I did manage to change it on Google Account>Settings>Email Edit>Country but that did nothing. Any help?
Did you get any help on this? did you resolve this problem ? i have the save the same problem. did the same things you did, but no solution

Nope, But I am 100% sure that it has to do with country settings.
I tried 1 last thing today: Completely wiping EVERYTHING off my phone & Reinstalling everything. Nothing.
I also noticed a few "Market Unlocker/Enabler stopped working!" threads these past 3 days, So basically Google did something.
I contacted support & This is an email I got yesterday:
Thanks for this valuable information. We really appreciate it, and it's because of people like you that we can improve the Google Play experience for all users.
We are currently aware of this problem with Android apps on Google Play and are trying to resolve it. This complex issue involves several areas of the Google Play Store app and is not an easy fix, so I don’t have a good estimate on how long it will take us to resolve it. As soon as I have any updates, I’ll be the first to let you know.
I really appreciate you taking the time to let us know about the details of your specific case; each time we hear more details, it helps us make a better solution. I hope that despite this, you will keep using the Google Play Store app and keep sending us valuable feedback when things don’t go as expected.
I’ll be sure to update you as soon as I have more information about this issue, but in the meantime, feel free to contact me if you have any other questions. I’ll be in touch!

So yeah, Nothing you or I can do about it.
What Imma do next is install a 3rd party app market that doesnt use the Play Store at all (Anybody got any recommendations?)
I have the same issue, when i first start play store it opens categories and then blank page...
the only way i can download apps from play store is from my pc.
I tried all of the above "tips" but got no solution.
