process com.google.process.gapps has stopped working error

I've searched for a fix for this error but all it brings up are like 100 page threads and I can't get to the exact page. Does anybody know how I can stop getting this to pop up? I've tried switching roms but the next one does it as well. Any tips?

Nobody knows a fix for this one?

For me, turning off Sync Browser in sync settings for my Google account fixed this problem. I am using a HP Touch pad though, but should be the same on any android device.

Same thing is happening on my touchpad when I click sync browser that comes up. Turning it off is fine with me thanks for the tip.

This happened to me occasionally when I was running a custom rom but since I updated to the next version of the rom and flashed gapps, it hasn't come back. There did not appear to be a reason or rhyme. I tried to reinstall chrome and gmail but not sure of the results. May want to try that.

I have the same problem. The only difference that I know exactly when happened and what is the reason.
I upgraded to JellyBean, but just before that I force stopped some running apps thinking of a "clear" upgrade (WRONG).
Then after the upgrade (I was rooted before it) I opened Titanium Backup and noticed that some applications were showing as uninstalled ???
I did not uninstall them - but somehow they ended up uninstalled after the upgrade.
I suppose this happened because I stopped those few processes just before upgrading.
Now the applications showed as uninstalled are: "DRM Storage Protected..." Media Storage" , "Gallery" and some more
All those missing now ... I cannot start Google Store at all !? It opens for a second and closes itself. Tried to restore those with Titanium Backup but it does not restore them ... just runs endlessly.
PLEASE HELP !

I would try to flash the factory rom, unless you are using custom, flash the custom with gapps.

Here's the most simple fix. Remove your Google account and add it again.

It's been driving me nuts.
As soon as my Nexus 7 boots I get the message.
I removed my Google account and re-entered my details.
The message popped up again as soon as the account was added.
I'm on the stock 4.2.1 rooted ROM.
Factory reset next without restoring a backup.
Speaking of backup. When I used the ADB restore command.
I had the message that my device will restart. It did. I then had the Restore screen on my Nexus 7.
I hit Restore my data button or whatever it's called, and my tablet reset immediately. And no data was restored to my Nexus.
It's seems that is broken too.

I cleared Data and Cache of Browser (my stock Browser) and error disappeared, problem fixed...

I'm having this issue as well. Started happening after I flashed Paranoid Android 2.99 Beta 6 and the current gApps zip.

Did you tried this? (Comment before yours)

Finally cured it on my stock rooted Nexus 7.
Factory wipe and didn't restore any system apps.
So far so good.
I tried every other trick in the book.
So in the end, a wipe was the only option.

I just solved this on my Nexus. It was one of the google apps having a sync issue. I solved it by turning each one off till the error stopped then uninstalling it and reloading it.

TWRP 2.3.3 installed via Goomanager.
With rooted stock ROM 4.2.1 I used GooManager to download latest Paranoid Android 2.99 Beta 9 and GAPPS-JB-20121011.zip.
Factory reset and wipe of Cache & Dalvik then flashed PA from Goomanager
Nexus booted into PA
Opened Goo manager and flashed the GAPPS I'd already downloaded.
Nexus boots into unlock screen but then says "Unfortunately, the process com.google.process.gapps has stopped" and when that is cleared I get "Unfortunately, Setup Wizard has stopped" over and over again.
I don't get an opportunity to do anything other that re-boot into recovery.
I've re-flashed GAPPS by itself over the top, as well as PA and have tried, from within TWRP, to flash both one after the other. I always get the same errors.
Any advice please?
[Edit #1]
Used Wug's NRT 1.6.1 to flash back to stock, unlock and rooted again.
Installed Goo Manager again and downloaded GAPPS and PA 2.99 and going to see what happens.
and.....
Exactly the same problem!
[Edit #2]
Solved.
There was a later version of GAPPS that Goo didn't have listed.

[Q] Unfortunately, Google Play Store has stopped.

A problem I have with my Nexus 10, which started several days ago.
As soon as I click the "Google Play" app I get "Unfortunately, Google Play Store has stopped." error and it shuts down.
Seen this problem in other forums, but no definitive answer.
It runs on Android 4.2.2.
I've tried:
Deleting cache of Google play, and some other apps.
Removing my google account and adding it back (or other accounts)
Factory reset (So my current setup is clean).
I'm not as tech savvy as the common dwellers here so I've no idea how to ROM flash or with what to flash it with (Also I'm unrooted, and not sure how I restore older versions of things).
I'm open to suggestions.

If you go to settings, apps, and you press google play, you can uninstall newer versions. I had this problem, but it was because my google play wasn't in /system/app (im rooted with a ROM, and I deleted the gplay from the gapps, so this is not the same problem).

I looked for it, and it doesn't give me that button. I figured that's because after he factory reset it when back to default version (3.10.10) and wasn't able to update, so there's nothing to uninstal.
I'm losing hope, followed by sanity. Arghhh

So far I've unlocked and rooted the N10 to install the latest google play store.
Now the error is changed to "No connection" with a retry button.

Its drastic-but you should re- install the whole image/OS

Yes, that's what he's saying. Sounds like SOMETHING is corrupted, somewhere - even the factory-reset partition.

Last night I was getting "No connection" on G-Play - this morning it's working OK. All other network apps work OK. Not sure what happened.
I'm running PA latest ROM.

Turned it on today and everything starting working as before this problem started.
It must be something on their end, too bad they didn't bother letting me know, wasted some hours on this.
Thanks for all who tried to help.

I've had issues with error-less GPlay crashes that require a reflashing of the entire OS, sadly

Man, I know this is going to sound stupid but are you using the correct version of GApps? I flash numerous roms and have numerous versions of GApps. I do IT and sometimes you just have to walk through every step if all else has already failed. Its obviously a software issue since you can do other things with the table. I hope this helps.

Remove your google account, then open play store, and continue by entering your credentials again.

if possible go back to 4.2.2 and start over again or just install a custom rom and flash gapps

Yes that is always my last option.
I have faced this issue on 4.2.2 as well, I had solved this by stopping Freedom
This time post the OTA upgrade I lost root access, post which I could not stop freedom post which I deleted freedom and needless to say restarted the phone several times but no resolution. I am trying all kind of things on my phone before flashing it.
So let me know if you want me to try something else as well

[solved] Many apps force close after November update

Hi guys,
I managed to flash the stock November ROM via adb. Rooted the phone after that, installed Magisk. And now, many of my apps are force closing.
For example, the play store FC every time I tap on "Read more" on any app.
Many other apps FC for no apparent reason. And I can't add any Reddit account to any Reddit app.
Did someone have a similar issue? How can I solve it ?
Edit : I solved this. Apparently, installing Magisk uninstalled the Android system webview app. I reinstalled it, and everything works like a charm. Hope this helps someone !

Try clearing app cache
