I just got my Nexus 10 and was syncing with my account (downloading 50-some apps) and started getting "Error "[app name]" could not be downloaded due to an error. (Error retrieving information from server. [RPC:S-5:AEC-0]")
I have a good internet connection and I can navigate the store, surf the web, etc. but I only got a couple of apps downloaded before this message started coming up for every other app that was supposed to sync. Is anyone else getting this?
I tried a factory reset with the same result. A few apps download then the errors start flying. Very frustrating.
Thank you for this. I have also been getting the same error although I have a galaxy note 10.1. I'm guessing its most likely a server problem on Googles side.
I was just about to factory reset as well.

Seems to be working this time. (Hope I don't jinx it.) 14 apps left and it's about a quarter of the way thru the pig that is Modern Combat 3.

EDIT: What worked for me: Removed my Google account, then added it again (w/o even rebooting).
Hey guys been looking for an answer but only found a thread on evo 3d forums that doesn't have much activity, anyways I keep getting this file created every hour or so and its really starting to scare me maybe spyware or something. Trying to figure out why and where its coming from. Also attached inside contents.

I would download Avast from Google Play and scan sdcard and apps. Not sure what it is. Looks like spam-ware.

Thanks for the tip, just tried and avast says all is good. Should I be worried about this?

Just noticed I scanned it when the file wasn't there. Maybe I'll wait till it gets created then I'll scan?

I found that in my phone the other day too. I don't know what it is, but it doesn't really do anything.
Could be a log file. I'm not sure what it is. I would scan again once it appears. Not sure if it is I needed file or not. I don't have a nex 4 but was looking into getting one that's why I'm at the forum.
You can try sd maid which has a system cleaner. Or change the files permissions if you are worried about it transmitting data. But I wouldn't mess with it too much until you figure out what it is.

I suspect it's something to do with adverts in some app on your phone.

I have that file also, along with three others that I have no idea what they are.

You guys could wipe your sdcard with twrp if you are worried, but back up all your wanted sdcard data to a computer first. And then put it back on right after. I do that with my Nexus 7 sometime. Not sure if it is the same process on Nex4. It may not be necessary, not sure.

Not sure then, maybe its ROM or root toolkit related.

I have removed the apps I have installed on my Device from the above list, The first one that springs to mind is the go backup. I would check there first.
''insert any app'' could not download(500).
I searched and every methods hasn't been working. On wifi or data. Cleared cache and re synced account. Did a factory reset, tried an aosp Rom with the same result. Any ideas?

Ever since i flashed cyanogenmod 10.1.3 I've had this problem that doesn't allow me to download certain apps on my phone. This does not happen all the time and sometimes I get lucky and the app downloads fine. I always get this error message any one know why??

Clear the data of "Google Services Framework" and 'Google Play Store", reboot and try downloading again.
Thanks I tried that and it downloads fine. I appreciate the help !

I have no Connection Error in Play Store, i can't see google play or play store in applications manager so that i can clear data and cache.
My phones date and time are also correct.
I'am using i9500 GALAXY S4 ANDROID 4.4.2 rooted.
Kindly tell me anything to fix my problem.

You need to swipe across to the all tab to clear data in play store I think

think u mean S4 instead of S5, did you used freedom before? maybe because of you uninstalled the freedom without stop the app at first?

Try going to application manager and force stop Downloads app and delete data and cache, and retry. It worked for me
