When I try to update apps in the Google Play Store, it says, "Downloading" and displays the progress bars, but doesn't actually download anything.
I'm using a rooted Nexus 7 with stock ROM (no mods).
Things I have tried
I have tried clearing data and cache for the Google Play Store and Google Play Services, with and without wifi enabled.
I have tried uninstalling updates for the Google Play Store (how do I reinstall them?).
I have tried removing my Google account and adding it again.
I have tried powering down and restarting -- this causes the Play Store to download for about 5 seconds after I start back up before it stalls again.
I have verified that the wifi connection works just fine.
Other oddities
When I tried to install the recent OTA update, It didn't work (google android on his back with the message, "Error!"), but restarting the device seemed to return everything to normal again. This has happened twice now, and I don't know how to solve it.
Occasionally, the play store will start actually downloading the updates for a minute or two (enough to get several updates at once). Then is stops as suddenly as it started.
Same thing here since I moved to PURITY, then I just moved back to PA 4.0 beta still same problem.

So a couple things.
First off, do you have a custom bootloader? it seems as you don't as the Android on his back is the stock, but I just wanted to check
Have you ever tried installing an update one at a time? sometimes when I start to receive updates for apps, it just sits there indefinitely, but when I stop all updates and manually go into each app that needs updating and update, that works. I would give that a try
I think I fixed my problem.
I cleared data/cache of Google Play Store in #Settings #Apps #All
But I had to do it multiple time time before it accepted to download again.
And also at one point I formatted the sdcard but still wouldn't download so I tried again multiple times to clear data of Google Play Store.
Now it keeps updating all my apps (update all).
So I've woke up in the middle of the night on 3 separate occasions in the last week and I've noticed that Android with a chest open was on my TV screen this morning as I'm getting ready for work I notice that my next play it was downloading an update and then went to try install the update and ended up going to the android screen with the robot and his chest open which mean there was never with installing the updates my Nexus player rooted and has stock recovery anybody know what this is about or how I can fix this?
I'm having issues with the Play Store and some non-Google sites. I'm constantly noticing that Play Store gets stuck in "Downloading" when trying to update apps or install new ones and never actually starts until I completely restart the phone. Chrome also gets stuck loading pages that are non-Google sites, and I can't seem to download anything as they all get queued.
I tried clearing cache + data on play store, play services, download manager and even a factory reset. Everything works when I reboot, but after some hours it get "stuck" again, every day. Happens on wifi and 3G; no idea what's causing it.
I'm running stock Nov build with root (not systemless). Same exact apps and config on my N5 and no issues there.
Have you tried to download without root?

Sometimes if an application needs permission it will block downloads.
The way to fix it is go into the Playstore and stop the current downloads then "update all".
You will probably get a permission notification.

I'm assuming you have greenify force doze mode on? That did it to me and had to reboot often to fix it, so I finally stopped using it for now. Try disabling that then reboot and see if it happens again.

I do have that enabled actually. I'll try it out w/o the aggressive doze setting and see how it works.

Had aggressive doze turned off and downloads just got stuck again so that's not it. I'm uninstalling Greenify completely and see if that does anything.
For me it was a combo of aggressive doze force and ad block. If i disabled one of them then rebooted it seemed to work fine. Both at the same time then it would happen often. I'm not sure, but maybe there's something else triggering it for you.

I had this problem at one point. I can't remember which ROM I was on, but it appeared to be related, so I did a full wipe, flashed an updated ROM, and the problem went away.

Did you try uninstalling the update on Google Play store?
I think it was Greenify that was causing it. I uninstalled the beta version and installed the current play store version and it hasn't happened all day; logcat also looks like it has significantly less errors as well. I think something is funky with the beta version on Marshmallow.

I have been looking for a solution to this issue for so long, going so far as to factory reset my phone. Then, when I saw your comment, I realized my adblocker could be issue. Turned that off, and voila! You are my hero right now.
help me to download from goole play,it does not allow me(P10)
Hey,
Installed the stable Pie update and since then, I am unable to properly install/update apps in Play Store. Stuck on 'Downloading...' for long time.
I just left the phone at it and got busy with work. About an hour later, I could see that it had downloaded 8.64MB of the 8.66MB app update. Checked half an hour later and the installation was completed.
Internet works fine. I am able to browse, sync emails, Whatsapp, etc. Everything works fine. 100Mbps line here.
Any idea how to fix this? Was working just fine on Oreo.
OP5, bootloader unlocked, unrooted, stock OS.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks!
Edit: toggling Battery Saving mode on and off seems to have solved the issue for now. Will update if it returns.
I am not sure if this is an Android or Galaxy issue so please redirect me if necessary.
I have a new S10 plus which has worked perfectly well since the beginning of January until a couple of weeks ago. It has the latest firmware. Suddenly, updates have stopped happening either automatically or manually. I notice that there are umpteen reports of this in many forums going back a couple of years and there is a wealth of advice as to how to fix it. I have tried them all many times (Play store cache, Play Services cache, rebooting, closing recent apps etc.) to the point where I gave up trying to find a solution and wiped the phone. It took a long while to restore some 200 apps but all came back and the first lot of updates updated correctly. However, a day or so later, the problem returned with apps only partially downloading or getting to 100% then not installing.
There was one "fix" I hadn't tried as I came upon it late on. I started the phone in safe mode. As soon as I did, the update whizzed through. However, after a normal restart, the problem was back. So I have a messy solution that I can apply when the list builds up but this is far from satisfactory.
This is where my ability and knowledge comes to an end. I am presuming that one of the apps that doesn't load in safe mode is causing the problem.....or is it? Could this be a system app? What can I do next? Is there an error log that could pin-point the cause of the problem?
Many thanks.

I noticed this issue as well. I use Aptoide to get updates faster and updating either Play Services/Store got mine to start working again
I have play store issues too.
One issue is i have to clear cache and force stop Playstore and services to get a list of updates to show up. I keep hitting check for updates and nothing, but when i do the above i get some updates appear straight away
Another issue is my list of beta apps dissapears every night at 9pm and magically reappears next morning at 9am. This also makes the security updates for play services in biometrics security settings dissapear at the same time. After months of arguing with Google and them blaming Samsung, telling me im running beta firmware (which i never installed beta, i went straight to Android 10 Stable) doing a complete factory reset and clean install, the problems still prevailed, then i found an old nexus 10tablet and installed my google account. When the beta apps ect dissapears from my S10plus it also simultaneously dissapears from the nexus 10.
The nexus 10 only has Android 6, has a different version of playstore and services. Yet Google Still insist its because my S10plus is only on beta firmware, even though i sent them about phone screenshots.
Its pretty obvious that this is some kind of syncing issue with Google servers and playstore services
But they refused to take ownership of the issues.
