[Q] Unfortunately, Google Play services has stopped - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

This started a few days ago unexpectedly. I hadn't installed anything or made any changes. Whenever I start a Google app (like Hangouts) I get this message. I tap OK and then the app works. But the next time I start the same app, I get the message again.
I've tried clearing the cache for Google Play Services and Google Play Store. I tried Uninstall Updates for Google Play Store. Uninstall Updates is grayed out for Google Play Services though. Clear Data is grayed out for both.
Any ideas?

Update
It appears to be only Hangouts and Gmail that cause the error message popup. I tried restoring a Titanium backup of Hangouts, but it was the same.
The only other thing I can think of is to restore a nandroid backup.

If you have TiBu have you considered backing it all up and doing a factory reset? Not sure if a restore would restore your previous problems as well though. However, maybe a selective restore from TiBu after a factory reset?

This is probably what I will try after trying the nandroid restore. The problem is time, I won't have time to mess with it until the weekend.

[Q] eb01...gmail not syncing?!?!

Just noticed I haven't been getting gmails emails with eb01 SC 2.2....if I open up gmail and manhally refresh it will pull them but won't do it on its own....already wiped and so on
You probably restored system data. Don't do that.
Elaberate a little...and....how do I fix it?
When restoring with Titanium, restore missing apps&data only. If you restore system data, there are some things that are safe (keyboard info, APs and bluetooth, etc.) but restoring anything having to do with your google account will screw up sync big time. There's an involved process that might fix it, involving clearing every google account/service's data and re-adding the account, but it's easier just to reflash.
I restored system but only from recovery...
I restored system but only from recovery...I dont use titanium at all...thanks for the help I will post later if I fix..

Titanium backup restore APP+DATA doesn't seem to work

Hi,
I just updated my Desire Z from Virtuous Sense to CM7.1. I previously backed up all my apps with Titanium Backup, and after I flashed CM7.1, I downloaded Titanium Backup and restored some apps (App+Data). However, when I launched these restored apps, the data didn't seem to be restored. I'm still presented with a login screen.
Does anyone know how I can get app+data restore to work? Is there some setting that needs to be done during the backup process to get Titanium Backup to also back up my data, or is it incompatible with CM7.1?
Thanks.
Have you used Titanium for this before? Titanium doesn't always restore login data for apps that need it. For some apps, it just doesn't work for some reason. And its always the same apps.
For instance, Titanium seems to restore my Netflix and Pandora login data just fine (so I don't have to enter it again after flashing a new ROM). But HBO GO never does, and I have to enter it again.
Actually, yes I have. For example, I've tried it with Whatsapp, and it worked before. I didn't need to login with my phone number. This is useful since my whatsapp was registered to an old number. Skipping the login step would allow me to continue using the account.
For some reason it doesn't work this time.
Reflash the ROM or reinstall Titanium

[Q]Titanium Backup and Google apps

I flashed to the latest Dirty RootBox v2.0 twice and my titanium backup refusing to restore my google apps like chrome and youtube and many other processes.Any idea???What i have done wrong??
Ty in advance.
Try verifying backups, maybe they got broken.
Or try installing the apps from the Play Store and restoring just data

[Q] Help!! Titanium ROM Merge Killed Google Play Services on Rooted Sprint Galaxy S5

Hi, I rooted my new Sprint Galaxy S5. Everything was working fine. Then stupidly, I was tinkering with Titanium Backup and decided to batch merge all app updates into ROM.
Since then, Google play services crashes. So does S Health. I tried a full factory reset, but same problem. Play store crashes immediately and I can't log in to Google or use any Google apps that require Play Services. Then I did a factory reset. It didn't help. Now I don't even have access to Titanium backup!
Any step by step advice would be appreciated!! Thanks!

I'm kinda in the same boat... I rooted, recovery and then a ROM but soon after I started having problems with Google play services constantly crashing and unable to send text and the dialing touch tone having issues as well. I did go back on my nandroid backup and all is well except that I lost functionality on my bluetooth headset ... Now I'm thinking about factory reset and placing back original stock FW
I finally solved it by installing Kies3, doing a system software update and reinstalling all my backed up apps. Seems to be working fine for the last week. A close call...

Lost all my SMS/MMS when I let Google setup restore most recent

I wiped my phone and installed a new rom for a couple hours, received one text during that time. Then I wiped again, installed a fresh AICP rom, and let Google Setup restore my most recent backup from the cloud. It only restored the one message, and I lost a couple years worth of messages.
Is there a way to restore my messages from the cloud backup, to a certain point-in-time?
Thanks!
Mike

If you go back to stock and restore that backup you should get all your messages. I had the same issue on ROMs that sms was not restoring. Even though Google does a pretty descent job backing up I use sms backup and restore also. It's free and can backup anywhere (google drive,device,email etc.) That way you never have to worry again.
