Did you clear your framework services cache to get the update maybe? This is one of the symptoms I have read about.
I think the fix was to delete your playstore account on the Nexus and then sign in again.
Others may have better input.

Yeah, sign out and back in. Should fix that.

Ok will try that could not even downloadf any other app either.

Ok i deleted the play account and added a different one and same problem, cant get any apps stuck on downloasding progress bar.
Also how do do you sign out of the account

Also i did download the update to 4.2 via framework clear method.
Iv added a different account google play store I'm still does not work

Go into settings apps find google play click on it .. Clear cache and data .. reboot your tablet
If that does not work . and only then .
go into settings accounts google.. in the google account at the top right click the ... then delete account. REBOOT. it will prompt you to set up your Google account again once it boots backup...
This should Solve your troubles. If not and only then go into settings apps all
FIND GOOGLE FRAMEWORK .. clear data in there..
Good Luck

Ok brb gonn try the above

Done all of the above still not working just shows downloading bar and doesnt download anything time for an rma?

scratch that idea then..... DOH

Im thinking this is software more than hardware issue. Anyone know how to fix this? Id hate to have to do a full wipe on the tablet to try and resolve this,

Get on your computer... Go to play.google.com. log in..
find a simple app and click install.. See if it will install the app to your Nexus 7 ...
or if the nexus is grayed out...if grayed out try a few apps. that we know should work in the nexus. .
This will check to see if your tab has been disabled with wallet... if you can push to the device its just a bug and play store is down for you wait a hour...
By the way ARE you totally stock .. ?
if not whats your configuration

totally stock, not even rooted. will try when i get back home later today,

I had this issue on a rooted N7 with TWRP. After I managed to get the update side loaded, nothing would update and the poor darling vanished from the Google Play website as well. I had to do a factory reset. Then everything was golden. I didn't even lose root, thanks to OTA Rootkeeper.

i didnt even try to sideload the update, all i did was the clear framework cache thingy and then update came and i updated it,
not happy with this if i have to start sideloading all my apps from now on since i dont want to be wiping it to factory settings, i will try the suggestion above when i get home though and see if play store is working, may just let it keep downloading for an hour or so and see if that works.

I think it was the framework clearing that may have caused it. I too tried that step to try and force the update to download. T'was all bad man. However, once I factory reset it, I just left it plugged into power and went out for dinner, when I got back it had downloaded all the apps I had registered on Google Play. Amazon was a different beast of course. By all means, let it percolate and it might fix itself, just keep that reset in mind.

will do, when i get home will leave the tablet on and let it keep trying to install the apps,
when it goes into standby mode when the screen powers off will it still be trying to install the apps in the background or does in standby mode the install process stop?

Ok Google not working

Since updating my firmware to G900FXXU1ANE2_G900FOXA1ANE2_BTU my google ok voice command is not working even in the Google Now app, everything is switched on to recognise voice. Im not sure it is the update that has caused this, can anyone confirm this? Im on the Galaxy SM900F international latest firmware. Thinking of going back to original firmware if this is the case.

Could be a bug, is the app up to date? Try going into application manager, go to all, find google search and press it. Clear Cache and clear data and reset it to factory or if possible uninstall (if uninstalling don't worry about cache or data) then reinstall or update depending on your situation.

Already tried that thanks Gareth it worked randomly once then wouldn't work again I think it's possibly the upgrade have you upgraded your firmware? and does google voice still work??

I am running the phoenix rom. I always use the s voice rather than Google itself but Google search does work. If you're root you could remove the app completely with "root app delete" then download it off Google play again? If it's a bug with the firmware then it should be patched very quickly.

Got it working again not sure how or why tried turning a few Google now settings off then back on again seems to be working fine now was strange so maybe it is a bug thanks for your input Gareth. Ive usually flashed omega roms in the past (S3) but with the phone been so fast root has been good enough for now

Greenify problem J500FN Lollipop

Hello, I always used Greenify in my devices, but with J5 I've a big problem, I'm not able to use it anymore. I don't have root and I don't want to use it, so I use Greenify non-root mode. It worked for 2 days, but then it has stopped working. The app asked me to activate it in accessibility settings, but when I do it there's a message that says "Settings has stopped working". I can't hibernate apps anymore, and I don't want to root my phone. I'm on Samsung Stock lollipop and I already tried a data factory reset, I also flashed last firmware with odin, nothing to do. In Marshmallow there isn't this problem but I don't want to upgrade, I also tried to clear data and chache or to uninstall Greenify. Is there a fix? Help!

You need to install a TTS, like GoogleTTS. Then choose GoogleTTS at language settings if i remember properly and then the problem is gone. I had same problem in past, and after i googled, i got this answer which solved my problem.
Im not sure, but i think Greenfy does slow down the phone over time. I always used it, even now, but ill check about this on google sometime.

You don't need root lol. Just check Google Play for Google TTS and install it, or download it from apkmirror if you don't have gapps. Then put it on in settings like I told you in my previous post.

[Guide][Detailed][How to Use Bixby Voice in S8+ Port][Khongloi Rom]

Hey guys, As you all should have known that Samsung has finally shown his cards nd released Bixby voice In US[English language version].
So now?
Its time to use Bixby in our n5 too.
Here is the guide for bixby voice in S8 port( Specialy for khongloi rom)
So...lets start.
You guys have to follow following steps-
STEP-1: You have to Install or update some bixby apps. What are the apps? Here you go.......
There are total 6 bixby apps....but 4 are already included in khongloi rom.So you have to install two and update 1 app.
1.Install BIXBY VOICE from here Click here
2.Install BIXBY VOICE WAKE UP from here Click here
3.Update MY BIXBY app from here Click here
**You have to manually push my bixby app into system/privapp/Bixby nd replace there with correct permissions. Reboot done.
STEP-2: Download khongloi CSC-OMC V11 Zip file.
Then, boot into twrp nd flash it.
Select USA in aroma installer.
Then, Select XAA. Done
Now, bixby voice is done.You can use bixby voice now by going to My bixby app.
STEP-3: This step is for remaping bixby.
Why remaping?
Since In S8, there is a dedicate key provided for bixby. But not in note 5. So to use bixby by pressing one key, we have to remap the button.
But its yours choice.This is not the necessary step.
So lets start.I have remaped Volume up button.
For remaping button.....(Use any root browser)
Go to system/usr/keylayout/Generic.kl
Open it and search for the line
key 115 VOLUME_UP nd change it to
key 115 WINK
Save and reboot.
Thanks to @minervino.
Thanks to EasyAndroidPro too.
Thats all.
Enjoy bixby :highfive:
NOTES-1. You guys can dirty flash CSC-OMC Zip....but if you faced any issues thenafter...Do clean flash then.
2. If you faced fcs in setting up bixby, try to clear data and cache of,my bixby app or bixby apps.
3. Bixby voice wake doesnt work. But microphone works great.
4. By flashing USA CSC...you'll lose your regional csc features like as volte,etc.

First comment... yeah
Thanks a lot bro:fingers-crossed:

Some Screenshots-

Could you upload XAA csc ?
I'm in note 7 FE port
Thx

Phone keeps restarting after I install XAA and also bixby crashes. Any advice?

Bro, @The Joker this works for Note 7 FE 2.1 too?

Sorry wrong forum please delete.

Not At The Moment Bro Lets Hope Some Bypass Would Be There Soon For Note FE Ports Too
I think Some Build.prop editing like Editing Device Id/Build Flavor And Some Misc Values To Appear Device As Hypothetical S8+ Should Help

Bixby voice wake up command(Voice recognization) doesn't work.
It is known issue....
But microphone works great.

But i guess after flashing the USA CSC i would lose the VoLTE feature with Jio... (Indian User ?)

I did clean flash. And I still get the error. When I want to dirty flash csc it doesn't change anything. Not sure why.

Guys you can wakeup bixby assistant by playing sam music and keep it plaing then say the wakeup command.. sorry 4 bad english

Those who got Bixby voice to work mind sharing what country you are in and which variant you use?
I'm from Vietnam using N920L and after following all the steps, I still can't see Bixby voice option, it just jumps to Bixby home like before ☹
Also, if I keep my SIM card on, there is a pop-up saying I have changed my SIM card and need to restart to use it, can't close it so I restarted but it showed up again so I had to took my SIM card out ☹

Didnt wrk.... Maybe cuz some things got messed up in the time ive been using the rom!!! But great that its here though... Thnx mte!!

How do I set up a double tap or long press to open Bixby voice instead of volume up.
Maybe even a nova launcher gesture.

Work in other roms?

Hi, can't get Bixby voice to work after following the guide here, any problem? I did CSC install in Aroma with USA and then XAA, installed what is needed, but it can't work, still the same of before. My device is N920C, I did the OMC-CSC dirty.

Help! Can't update the Essential Camera or Resources apps from Play Store (505 Error

Just bought this phone from someone off swappa. I put all my apps on it, but while doing the setup I found that the Camera app and the Essential Resources app show updates available on Google Play. However, when I try to install them, I get 505 errors for both. 150 other apps installed just fine, but I can't install these 2 essential apps. Weird thing is, I checked the most recent version of the camera app available on the play store (0.1.067) and compared it to the one on my phone and it's the same version! Yet it says update on the play store. I looked for 'essential resources" under apps on my phone and I can't even find it at all.
Is it possible that the guy who sold me the phone modified the software somehow and that's what is causing the problems I am having? I want to update the essential resources app so that more apps can use the full screen.
Lastly, I tried to enter recovery by holding the power+volume down button when I start the phone. The menu comes up and I select recovery and all I get is a "no command" error along with the android with an exclamation point. Is there another key sequence I need to press at that point to get into recovery? I'm trying to clear the cache.

Just clear cache and data on play store application and see if that resolve your problem.

Did that. No dice. Also removed my Google account and readded it. Still doesn't work. I installed the whitelist editor and used the adb commands to enable it. I hope whatever the previous owned did doesn't prevent me from receiving OTA updates.

The best suggestion with this phone is to do a factory reset, and set up the phone as new. Don't install anything from a back up or another device.

I believe I found the reason. I bought this phone off Swappa. It appears it's running a test build of the software somehow. NMI75B test-keys. I believe this is the reason the apps don't update. I have no idea why the phone updated to this build OTA, but I've seen a few other threads here and on Reddit where others have this build also.

Has nothing to do with your build

I suspect it has to do with the playstore

Respectfully, I think you're wrong. I downloaded and have updated 150+ non-system apps to this phone without issue. Only 3 system apps won't download and update without giving me 505 errors. The 3 apps are Camera, Essential Services, and Essential Resources. I believe that the test build of the firmware I am using is the culprit. All 3 are system apps. In addition, I've already tried all 505 error remedies to try and fix the problem and they don't work for these 3 apps.
