I got my new Galaxy S one month back. I have no problems with any other functionality but Android Market. I can browse apps, but when I click install each get stuck at "Starting download..." screen, and never starts or fails. I had kept it for 3 days and still the same. Market / Google Apps / Download Manager clear cache / data does not help even. Phone restart also does not help.
So far the solution is do a factory reset and lose all current apps, then install 5 to 6 apps again. Then the same story begins. No more apps can be downloaded. Stuck @ "Starting download...".
"Samsung Apps" application works fine.
I also have tried all following firmware and problem persists.

Have you tried removing all apps from the download queue and then turning off wifi and adding them for download over 3g/gprs only?
This used to fix this issue for me.

Try activating Google Talk first and then try to download. I know it sound strange but this may help.

Thanks, but launching google talk does not make any change.
Out of no where, I can't download off the Market anymore. This is what happens when I try to download when clicking on Install, it displays the Downloading icon in the notification bar and disappears without any warning or error! When I look back on the Application page for example Angry Birds, it just shows the Install button like it wasn't even touched!
I power cycled many times, I tried a lot of the tricks off of Google like Gtalk fix and the uninstalling the marketupdates trick, still no go I'd hate to reset to factory again, specially after recoverying from the Wifi issue from the other post.
Your help is appreciated!
Did you try going into applications, click on market, and press clear data?

Yessir, and cleared most google services too.
Hmmn, not sure what to tell you if you already did that?

I think the market is down. Same issue here. Try with me nexus one and it wont download either.

Same here. Can't download anything.
I factory reset (which sucked royal balls) but I think I know what caused it now, it's that Fast Web Installer for AppBrain app. When I tried to re-install it, it said something about causing issues with new market update, and I remembered that I installed it successfully before the reset. So it might of conflicted and busted my market.
Let me know if that works for you, assuming you have this app.

Nooooo..market is down!
Hmmm.. not for me, I just re-downloaded all my apps... now that you mention it, downloading 260 apps might have something to do with that :/

Interesting. I still can't. androidcentral mentioned it's down also.
I can't download any app either, and I just wasted 2 hours trying to fix it...I guess it's down!? I can see the apps, I click install, and then it says download unsuccessful, just like the OP said.

O. M. G.... I factory reset for NOTHING?!?! *double face palm*

For some reason while I'm using the N7, just browsing various websites or looking at videos, the error notification "unfortunately maps has stopped" pops up.
I searched around for a fix or even other threads about this on the N7 but have not seen any.
I've tried re-installing the Maps application on my N7 but it seems like it can't be uninstalled. I disabled the app and the error message stopped, but when I wanted to use the Map app, I had to enable it, and after use did not disable and noticed the error notification pop up at around the same frequency.. (every other day or so.)
I have not rooted the device, and have only downloaded/installed a handful of apps; am using Apex launcher as an alternative for the lack of landscape view on the home screen. Thanks in advance for any help.
Same problem I'm having. Not rooted, completely stock.

I'm also having this problem with the Nexus 7 and CM10, but good to know it also happens in stock, saves me some trouble.

Have you tried this: Goto Settings > Apps > Maps > Force stop, clear cache, clear data. Then try rebooting your N7.

Have you tried fixing permissions in recovery or through ROM Manager?
I've tried both, and I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling maps, it still happens. Yesterday it interrupted me twice while I was playing a game. It's starting to get annoying.
Yes this is also an annoying issue for me.

If you don't *use* maps, and all the attendant programs (like local, navigation, etc) you can always go into your appdrawer, longhold the app and drag it up to App Info. (or go settings>apps>maps) and choose to "disable" the program.
(This *should* be possible stock, not rooted. I may be wrong, I didn't leave my N7 stock very long ;P)
I might have figured it out. Go to maps, settings, location settings, location reporting, select "do not update your location". So far no message this past day or so (crossing fingers).
[edit] Spoke too soon, just got one.
Call Google Apps support.
I had this issue happen to me for the Gmail app, and unfortunately, this was happening on two devices, occured after Factory Resetting two devices, and removing and re-adding the account.
Google might have changed/switched a setting, and it may have affected your ability to access any saved data you have on your account.
Same problem here, maps has stopped. Happend when my N7 was stock, andre now when it is rooted.
FWIW, this has never happened to me again since I installed AOKP some days ago.

what's aokp? i still have this problem on my n7 and it bothered me again today to the point of googling for a solution, and what do you know, my own thread pops up.
AOKP is a custom ROM. Build 2 just came out a couple of days ago and build 3 is on the way. Cyanogenmod 10 may also have fixed this problem but I haven't tried any recent builds. Also, maps was updated very recently, are you on the last version?
Same Here
i have same problem with google maps on my xperia neo after i flashed my last rom.
after a fresh installation. it s runnning but when i restart i have that message "unfortunatly.. app stoped"
this stuff happened to me all the time on my N7, part of the reason i returned it.
note 2 l900 Unfortunately maps has stopped using favorites
No solutions recommended thus far have worked (fix permissions, clear cache, disable download reenable).
Every time I select a favorite or home or work in maps, it crashes andi get that error message. If I select from the history or manually enter, there's no issue.
Rooted stock Android 4.1.1. Version 6.10 maps.
But not the updated version. I hate the maps updated version. It worked fine until about a month ago (give or take).
Why are so many having this issue?
It may be the same prob fr evry1....or diff prob with similiar manifestation...post your logcats if you can....

Sorry for not responding with them ... I stopped following the thread when I found out the glory of Waze (and installed Whompasaurus)
i've read somewhere that could be a font size problem, go to settings and configure the smallest font size and try again, to me i didnt worked, but somehow the crash is delayed 1 or 2 seconds more
edit: i fixed it, my solution was to change the language
on android 4.4.2 (paranoid) you go to settings>>language & input>> english (United states)
don't know why i've set it to [ Developer] Accented English (zz_ZZ), that was the problem
another solutions i've read:
clean cache app
turn off phone, remove battery, wait 5 secs, turn on
flash gapps downloaded from your custom rom web
reset gps and agps, you can do this with "gps status" (search on play store)
try with another wifi, or mobile data plan (some people had problems with wep encrypted wifi's)

Changing the language from (zz_ZZ) to english (United states) worked for me thanks man
I was gonna buy a new tab cuz i use map regularly
Running stock 4.2.1, stock kernel.
Cleared cache and dalvik, rebooted back into rom.
Now Google Now force closes. If I clear data on "Google Search" app, and select not to enable Google Now, all is well.
As soon as I try to enable it, it crashes.
Tried fix permissions, didn't work.
Also disabled location settings, and allowed me to open google now.
Next I enabled settings, but only GPS. This worked as well.
Once I had GPS AND wifi, it crashed again.
Tried removing updates, restarting, clearing google framework data, etc.
What am I missing?
can't launch google now
I just started getting the same problem today. I can't launch the Google Search app without it immediately crashing (Unfortunately Google Search has stopped. Report / OK). If I reset data on the app I can launch it again until I turn on Google Now after which it crashes immediately again.
I'm on a stock Nexus 4, boot loader never been unlocked, not rooted, etc. I can't seem to find any other mentions of this problem anywhere.

Anyone else? I've been driving myself nuts trying to fix it!
Thinking of just dirty flashing stock again...
I'm pretty sure it's a server side problem with Google Now data that is causing the app to crash.

What I figured. Now I'm missing my Nexus 7 from the My Devices tab. Somethings going on. Just can't find any news/reports of it.
Yeah, I don't understand why nobody else is encountering this problem.
This thread is the only relevant result in web search.
There are 3 other people encountering the same issue on Google+ but I cannot post links because I just created this account.
Search for "google now crashes" on Google+ and you should see a few others with the same problem but no solutions.
My gs3 started doing fc'ing after I installed a new room. Hope it is something server side because I can't fix it.
Problem seems to have fixed itself.

I hope someone can help. Since buying my SM-G975U at release, every several days, Play Store updates get stuck at download pending. The only way to get them downloading again is to uninstall updates to the Play Store app. Then, updates will install as expected for a few days, but then this will happen again.
I just factory reset my phone, installed all updates and installed apps one by one rather than restoring from a backup, and I'm back to the same issue.
What else can I try to fix this??
Thanks for any assistance.
Empty cache/data for Play Store?

Yeah, I've tried it just about every time this has happened, and it's never fixed the problem. Yet that seems to be the most common fix. Thanks for the suggestion and quick reply.
I have the exact same problem too, clearing cache and data works sometimes, changing wifi networks also works sometimes but very erratic!

It's reassuring to know I'm not the only one. Sure wish there was a clear problem/solution.
In sifting through Google searches, I read something about disabling Android Setup. I read someone else say the problem might be having two launchers (I use Nova), but I've always had two launchers on my phone.
I'll have to try changing wifi networks next time it happens.
Actually, I have two launchers too, Nova being my main one and Dodol as the second although I can actually remove that now. It'd be weird if that conflicted.
I had that issue when i was running my vpn. Had to disconnect for my playstore to act normally again.

I was counting the stock OneUI launcher as one of my two (and I use a home switcher app to switch between them). But if this were really a problem, wouldn't a ton of people have it?

I wonder if that could be it. But, just like the other possible solutions, I've had PIA running on my phones for years without this problem. I wonder if setting the Play Store to bypass the VPN in PIA's per app settings might help.
I guess you're on the May patch? It basically ****ed the phone..

I am on the May patch, and it doesn't seem to be an improvement, for sure. I believe, though, that my Play Store issue predates the May patch.
Im on the may patch, no issues here
I've had this issue before and the way I solved it is by making sure that whatever items I disabled in AdHell or PackageDisabler, to re-enable them and then restart the phone and see if the issue is still present. It was not for me, so I went down the list of disabling things again one by one. All is good now. Unfortunately I am unsure which package was it that was causing the issue, but definitely a samsung one if I am not mistaken.

Thanks. I'll give this a try. I only had disabled Flipboard, Game Launcher, and a dictionary. I've re-enabled those. They don't seem like critical apps, but it's worth a try.
I appreciate the input.
I'm having the issue from time-to-time without any third-party app that could interfere.
Rebooting is sometimes the only way to fix it.
September update here. Cleared cache on play store,in Google app, reboot. Nothing solves to me
