This wasn't a problem until I updated the phone a while after I got it. When I go to the play store and download a new app, it shows "downloading" with the weird fragmented bar moving across the progress bar, but the download refuses to start for like 5 minutes to sometimes several hours or a day. I've turned off every power and data saving mode I could find and it still does this. Factory reset, force stop, clear cache, clear data on all google play related apps (yes, including the system apps), and it WON'T STOP DOING IT.
Haven't had this issue on my Z3Z but I have had this issue on my Nexus 7 tablet once or twice. It randomly resolved itself I don't remember how. You can try deleting your google account, uninstalling all the play store and google play updates and reinstalling them. That may help.
Good luck.
I have this issue too and have been unable to resolve it.
I have the same issue. I'm to the point where I simply leave them be and eventually they download and updates. It sometimes works if I restart the download, reboot the phone, switch from wifi to data to wifi again, things like that.
This might be overkill, but ever since I factory reset the phone I no longer have this issue

Try clearing the cache of the google play store app in settings, if not then all its data. Also, if you just upgraded to Nougat it would be wise to make a factory reset (in recovery mode) to clean up the residual Marshmallow files, if you don't feel comfortable with that, then at least clear your device's cache and Dalvik (in recovery mode)

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).
The Play Store app started FC'ing on my S4 about a month ago or so in various contexts. I've already tried wiping its data, uninstalling updates, then reinstalling. I'm able to reproduce the following FC, so maybe if I can solve this, I'll solve the whole problem:
While showing My Apps, if I quickly switch the device on and off, Play Store becomes unresponsive. I can press the home button and get to my home screen, but the UI otherwise is frozen for about 20 seconds until Play Store dies. At the beginning of the attached logcat, it says:
Code:
Calling a method in the system process without a qualified user: android.app.ContextImpl.sendBroadcast:1337 com.android.server.am.ActivityStack.startPausingLocked:1342 com.android.server.am.ActivityStack.finishActivityLocked:5865 com.android.server.am.ActivityStack.finishActivityLocked:5779 com.android.server.am.ActivityManagerService.handleAppCrashLocked:9428

broadcastEvent : com.android.vending system_app_crash
V/15:36:29.186 AlarmManager(24983)
trigger ELAPSED_REALTIME_WAKEUP or RTC_WAKEUP
Does that mean something to anyone?
The app dies 12 seconds later, at the end of the logcat, but I don't know if the stuff in the middle has any bearing after that app_crash entry. Apparently, that's the 12 seconds that my phone is locked up, though it seems longer. Any suggestions?
Have you tried uninstalling and re installing Play Store to user space, without restoring its data at all?
When I had this issue, this either worked or didn't. When it didn't I couldn't find a solution except re-flash a G-apps ZIP!

Yeah, but I just tried wiping Play Store's data, reverting to factory-installed Play Store, and rebooting, and I was still able to get it to freeze, but only 1 time in about 10 tries. After Play Store updates, I'll try it again. If this is the only context where it freezes (without actually FC'ing), then that's not nearly as bad as the error where it FC's in the background and locks up my phone for 20 seconds at random times. In that case, I have to use Android Tuner's crystallize function.
So I had this lovely pop up on my phone last night. The message was "Unfortunately, S Health has stopped" along with the "OK" button. The kicker was that after clearing it, it would pop back up after a few seconds. I cleared the cache to no avail. I rebooted to just have it pop back up after it fully loaded all the apps. Battery pull rendered the same results.
My phone is all stock - with no crazy updates or recent app downloads that I could point to as potentially causing the issue.
I did find one resolution - I thought I'd mention it here in case others find themselves in this situation. Between clearing the pop up message - work your way to the Settings->Applications->Application Manager. From there - scroll down to S Health and once selected you can turn it off.
Now - I kind of liked having the pedometer - so I was trying to get it up and running again without doing a factor reset. I found that clearing the app data, deleting cache and uninstalling the update did the trick. I had to do it 2 times with reboots after clearing out all the data before it ultimately came back without issues. I had to recreate my profile again and historical data seems to have been lost.
I'm not sure if there might have been a better way to do it - but just thought I'd mention this issue here.
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)
Hi, I have a Galaxy S10+ on Verizon in the USA.
Having a few major problems that I just can't figure out:
1. When I try to download apps from the Play store, the download gets to 99 or 100% but never completes the installation. The fix is to go into settings/apps/show system apps/download manager and "force stop." Then the installation will complete.
2. Some apps don't work correctly. For example the CBS Radio News app starts streaming audio, then stops a few seconds later. And the ParKing app sometimes records my location upon disconnection from my car's bluetooth, and sometimes it doesn't.
3. Notifications from all apps are totally unreliable. Sometimes they'll come right away. Sometimes not for hours, and sometimes all at once. And sometimes when tapping on a notification it will bring you into the app. while sometimes it will do nothing.
WHAT I TRIED:
Tried rebooting, clearing data and cache on problem apps.
Cleared data and cache on "Google", Google Play Store and google play services.
Cleared phone's cache partition.
Uninstalled and reinstalled broken apps.
I THOUGHT I FOUND THE SOLUTION:
All these problems went away a month or so ago when I logged out of my google account on the phone. Iogged back in and it all worked great! I thought the problem was solved, but now it's all happening again. Logged of the the google account and back in, but it's still broken this time.
AND:
I had similar problems with my Galaxy S7, and thought the new phone would fix these problems! Is it possible there's something wrong with my google account? How could I have the same problems on both phones?
I haven't yet tried a factory reboot on the S10+, but I did do it on the S7, and after working for a while, the problems came back.
Additional info:
Mobile data and wifi have strong signals.
No custom ROMs, not rooted or anything, just stock the way it came. Only downloaded apps from Play Store. Nothing sideloaded.
All battery optimization is turned off. Power mode set to "high performance."
I've looked everywhere for a solution and have come here to the ultimate experts. You're my last hope!
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
