Clear data of Play Store and Play Services. Then check if it works. Also if possible get latest version of Play Store from Apkmirror (check your Play Store version and download).

insufficient storage space [n7 16gb]

I have the 16gig N7 and recently while trying to update apps or install new apps i get a "insufficient storage space" error. I have 7 gigs free on the device. I have used 1.80 gigs for Apps. Whats going on here? Dont seem to have an option to move the data to USB storage or anything similar as i can with the Nexus S phone.
Any help would be very grateful.

Have you ever filled it up till there was only around 500meg left? Try force stop play store and Google services framework and clear data on both. You should get a server error when you try the play store. Then reboot and try again

No I havent. This is the most I have had on it. I keep music on a 64gig thumb drive and connect via OTG cable. I will try what you suggested now.
Thank You,

I think that worked kieso. I appreciate your help. I installed 2 apps with no problems.

Playstore error ([BM-PP-14)]

Hi,
When trying to download an app (swiftkey) on the playstore, i have the error ([BM-PP-14)].
This error occurs just after clicking on the price and just before "accept and download" button.
Weird thing, I've already bought this app 2 days ago and never had a chance to download it. At first I had the 921 error.
I've tried clearing google play cache and data, rebooting the device with no luck.
My device has the original rom.
Any help would be appreciated.

Clear Google framework services and reboot. Should be good to go.

Having the same problem with Star Wars Pinball. Except I can buy other apps. It seems to be just this app that gets the error. Have tried clearing cache and data of Google Framework Services, Google Play Store, and Download Manager, all with no luck.

Same here : no problem with buying and installing other apps and I'm using 4.2.2 on nexus 4.
Perhaps this topic should be moved to the nexus 4 section?

Google support got stuck too on this. They refunded the application and the problem disappeared. I've purchased and downloaded it again successfully.

There are two ways of getting around this:
1) Use Amazon but purchase with a US credit card (not 100% sure if the card address is necessary).
2) Trick Google Play into thinking you are in the US. This has changed over the last few years but identifying your location depends on two or three things:
- Your carrier based on your SIM card.
- Your IP address.
- Your credit card (I'm not sure about this one since I've never registered my Chinese credit card)
Two years ago if I wanted to get paid apps I just connected with popped in a US SIM card (even a dead one), connected with wifi and did my purchasing. However other steps may be required now depending on your device, such as a wifi only tablets. In any case I was just able to purchase an app that 20 minutes ago only gave me the BM-PPH-01 error. I haven't tried it with any movies, but will try to clean up this process to only what is necessary.
Steps I took on my Samsung i9300
1. Change the SIM from China Unicom to an old AT&T SIM and connect with wifi with airplane mode on otherwise.
2. Settings > Applications Manager > Google Play Store & Google Play Services > Clear Cache
3. Connect to San Jose pptp VPN service.
4. Log in to Google Play > Purchase from Phone and purchased through desktop Play Store* successfully.
*Oddly, when selecting devices from when purchasing through desktop Play Store, my i9300 still showed up as from China Unicom.
I suspect that the VPN connection may not be necessary, at least for the entire process, maybe just during the log in, but haven't needed to buy enough apps to try each option. But something like this should get you your stuff.

Hey man you really did not need go through that many steps. Just an hour ago I got BM-PP-14 when I was trying to purchase an app from play store on my desktop. Then I tried purchasing it from the play store on my cell phone and it was successful... I am in Shanghai and the carrier recognized on play store is China Mobile.

I wish I could agree with you. Sometimes it works this way, sometimes it definitely won't. I suspect that this restriction is app specific because sometimes it works the opposite of what you described. I can't get it on my phone but can via desktop Play.

Today I solve the problem by delete updates of Google play and Google play service.
Launch it again then the download procedure is fine, no reboot need.

Google hidden auto updates.

I recently restored my phone with clockworkmod recovery. After that, when I use Google Play, it doesnt download any apps I choose but my data manager shows that some app is downloading something. It wasted about 60 mb. My downloads started after that. I noticed an app called Google Settings. I could successfully stop the Google Play Store update using Terminal Emulater. But this Google Settings keeps installing after a restore. Any solutions to stop this hell update which eats my storage space. Thanks in advance.:what:

The Google Settings in question are the Google Play Services.
You can remove them but the Play Store (and some apps) require them, so i don't recommend to do so.

I cant install bigger apps from Google Play.

Got a Mate 8 from China, AL10, B197.
Installed Goole Play from HiApp.
Been working fine for most things, unless i try certain games.
Got two examples. Fruitninja, only about 126mb, Google Play close down on about 100mb downloaded and when i reopen i get error 909.
Biggest example, Hearthstone, 1.04gb. Play close on 0.97gb every single time and i get error 907.
I really want this game so ive tried like 15 times after performing different "solutions".
Delete data and cache for both Google services and Google Play. Unmount SD-card, remove SD-card. Nothing helps.
Only tip really i havent tried is to delete the updates on Google play to get a earlier version. I cant find any updates to remove, probably because i installed it from HiApp and got latest version?
Play store > app permission > allow storage.

Hey,
You have to grant storage permissions to the "play store"
Settings -> Applications --> Google Play Sotre --> Permissions (or sth like that) then "storage" !
Little reboot may be required
Enjoy
Excellent, that fixed it. Im suprised the phone didnt just ask for permissions like its been doing for pretty much every other app.
Thanks guys!

Lack of google play in ZTE Market

hello after reset the phone I noticed that there is no google play store in zte market, so i had to install it on my own from web sources. what is curious google play services were already preinstalled on the phone, as well as installing Play Store was like updating it, but without it the app coudln't be found anywhere on the phone
so any idea what happened to Google Play, and if it is safe to install it from web sorcues, this time it was xda-dev.

im afraid there is no Play Store there, in any of the categories
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/google-play-store/
Pick the right version
It was there before. Since I took new updates of zte market, it isn't there. Not any of Gapps. I used to always install it from there.

Lol it's obviously safe as long as it's APKMirror or xda labs, or places like that.
When I used MiFavor 5 for the first time there was a version of Play Services installed there, but you had to go to Apps and enable it. Also GApps didn't help at all.

It's actually in all GApps versions.

@ BurakSefaSenturk, the Google Play app can not be deleted, so you can try to back up and return to factory reset. If you want to download this APP, the office website would be the better choice.

Yes you can delete the Google Play app if you are rooted. You can delete any app if you are rooted, even the calculator, clock...
