Deleted: Cause of issue was a calculator app from play store (this shouldnt be happening tho, how can ZTE do such sloppy work that allow play store apps to cause their launcher to crash upon install????)

Just when you think you have this cursed tablet at least stable, something else happens. So the Google Market app decided to update itself to the Google Play Store. Now it force closes every time it's opened. Anyone getting the same (not getting the same?)? Any solutions? I tried manually side-installing another copy of the Play Store that I found online, but that made no difference.
I was able to fix this. I went into the Application Settings and cleared the data for the Google Play Store app. I then pressed the button to force stop the Google Play Store app, which I think caused the whole launcher to close and restart. After that, opening Google Play Store brought the "update" message and license agreement again without force closes. It's been running okay so far.
I was having the same issue with my store after attempting to rent a movie. Play Store and Play movies would FC every time. The clearing data trick didn't work. I had to to restore with a CWR backup.
try wiping 3 times. I have not had one problem since.

Found this on a less traveled site: This did the trick for me.
I had this problem and called Google Support. They were very helpful. What I had done is disabled the Download Manager when trying to get rid of the Facebook download notification. Go into Settings...Appplication manager. ..All...then find and click on Download Manager.
**Note: that if it is disabled it will be at the very bottom of the list of apps. Once you click on Download Manager you can click to enable it again. This worked for my problem at least so I'm posting hoping it may help others.
Ever since I updated my N10 to the Nov patch, the google play store stops working --- I *can* start the play store app, look up new apps and be told about updates of existing apps, but everytime I try to install a new app and/or update an existing one the play store will crash.
My N10 is rooted and I locked it down pretty tightly using xprivacy etc. I also have titanium backup of an older play store (5.9.12 -- the current one is 5.10.30), and when I restored 5.9.12 I can resume installing new app and updating old ones, so I don't think it is an xprivacy issue (?). But play store updates itself very quickly and it gets tedious...
Does anyone else run into this problem? Solution? Thanks!
Bump: Am I the only one with this problem? It seems that restoring play store version 5.9.12 has stopped working...
I'm about to post a message on the google support forum, but first I want to see if I'm the only one affected by this (I have another phone running 4.4.2 for which the play store has stopped working as well)
I solved the problem by clearing the cache of the play store and reboot. Stupid mistake
Hey y'all,
Yesterday morning I updated Google Play services to the latest version (9.6.83), and after that everything broke loose. Play services constantly crashed (message showed up like 5 times and then disappeared), and then as a result (a) the Google App does not work - Google Now does not refresh, I am unable to search anything -- the Google App has stopped working; (b) whenever I click on an app description in the Play Store the Play Store will crash. I then rebooted my phone and it wouldn't boot anymore, so I had no choice but to do a factory reset. Now I'm experiencing the same issue again.
Anybody experiencing the same issues? I'm running NRD90U stock, rooted w/ TWRP, Ninja Kernel, no XPosed etc.
Thanks.
Here's an interesting one. MOJO has been fine for the longest time, but all of a sudden I'm finding the system locking up and needing a hard reboot when using the Google Play store.
This has only happened twice, but both very recently and both only when using the Play store. I've had to switch off the unit at the socket as the system is completely unresponsive.
Anyone else had this? I note that the Play store version I have is 8.0.73, and upon checking there are no updates available to it. Thanks all.
I'm guessing no then!
Well, I've cleared the Play Store's cache as well as the Google Play Services one, and now it seems to be saying it will download and install a new version of the Play Store. It doesn't seem to be in any kind of rush to do this however.
No freezes since clearing the caches, so hopefully once the store is updated that will be the end of it. Looking at the versioning numbers on the internet and it does seem that 8.0.73 is an older Play Store. Fingers crossed this is resolved. Will post back later.
Yep had this issue my self it's due to google play services likely outdated and or play store too, you will need to get to a working stage and then get into google, then type google play services update choose the play store webpage link for that result in google and click install button on the page for the google play services update choose open with google play store, then install it. This happens to tonnes of outdated devices not just the mojo phones and tv boxes and tablets all go through it if out of date.
Actually I had been using the ROM for over a year before it happened. It's happened once since last posting in fact, but I notice that my Play store is up to date, and I also notice that the Play store seemingly updates on its own following a freeze. So I wonder if it is anything to do with that.
May possibly have solved this. Was still getting freezes upon exiting the Play Store even after a re-flash of CM12.1 with up to date GApps. The whole console would just freeze up on returning to the desktop, so that would involve pressing back to exit the Play Store until returning to the main screen. But this didn't happen all the time.
Then it dawned on me that it might be the bloody launcher I set as default home. I mentioned elsewhere that I'm using TopTV Launcher which I have really enjoyed. So I changed it to my favourite phone/tablet launcher - Nova.
Bugger me if it hasn't been absolutely fine since.
I'm going to keep hammering the Play Store for the next few days/weeks, as the freezes seemed to specifically occur when the Play Store was updating. But hopefully this is solved. /fingers crossed.
Lol no, crashes be back! Bit different on Nova Launcher. I exited the Play Store and then got "Unfortunately, Nova Launcher has stopped", rather than an outright freeze. Tried to re-select a different home/launcher, but got the same thing. "Trebuchet has stopped" etc. I had to fudge a route to the shutdown app by just pressing keys on my wireless keyboard, otherwise it was stuck in a loop. There's definitely something going on with Play Services imho. I've also tried clearing the cache and other solutions but to no avail. My Play Store is up to date too so it's not that.
The most interesting solution I've read so far is that Play Services gets jittery if it doesn't find certain apps installed, such as Maps etc. Now I do have a pretty pared down set installed. Maybe I'll try installing more Google apps, but isn't the point of rooting and flashing these devices so that you can control what you install? What's the point if I still end up installing all the crap I don't need anyway?
Still, I'll perhaps give it a go - or otherwise just throw either the MOJO or myself off a building!
Does anyone have an issue regarding that the Play Store keeps crashing after a few seconds, doesn't matter what you're doing. I've tried anything that I know off, like updating,uninstalling updates, play services updating or uninstalling updates, download manager cache clearing and more stuff. I don't want to factory reset my phone.
If anybody has an idea, please help, I'm getting really annoyed now at these terrible experiences with Google apps.
Do you have themed this app? If you have themed with Swift installer and play Store has been updated then you have also update the theme. Otherwise play store will crash.

No I haven't, but it fixed itself. Funny when you have this problem for 2 weeks but when you post it on a forum its magically fixed.
