I think my Google account is broken - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I have a Thunderbolt running Protekk's latest CM7 build. I tried updating some apps but nothing was happening. I would get an error message saying "<app name> could not be downloaded due to an error." When I try downloading an app from market.android.com the app downloads and installs just fine. I then tried logging into a spare Google account on my Thunderbolt and I was able to download apps with no problem either.
I've tried wiping and installing different ROMs but no dice. My main Google account seems to be broken. Anyone have any idea of how to fix this?

[Q] AxuraJL5 market "My Apps" problem

the majority of my installed apps from the market are not showing up in the "My downloads" part of the market. Ive tried all normal fixes and none of them work:
TiBu Market Doctor
Fix Permissions (This actually isnt working for me on this ROM either)
Uninstalled/Reinstalled Vending.apk
Cleared Market cache/data
Is anyone else experiencing this? Does anyone have other ideas on how i would fix this??
Hmmm, that is strange. All of my apps are showing up.
My market updated to the latest leak out and it started doing that. I uninstalled the update then restarted after that and all my app showed. Now my market updated agaib to the latest one but now all my apps show olin the my apps section. So try that.

are you running Axura JL5? I dont have the option to uninstall updates
My market is now not functioning properly either..
Its giving me an error saying "Warning: Your device may not be compatible with Android Market. Contact your device's manufacturer for more information." What the hell?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have tried restoring with odin and everything and still get this weird error.

I saw some ppl tweeted this earlier. Seems to a market problem.
Topshelf: I'm guessing you are using TB to restore apps? On almost all flashes I have the same problem after restoring. I usually uninstall an app that I know is installed, reboot, clear cache, then usually in one of those steps it brings back all my apps. GL
anyone else having this problem?

CM7 - Cant install Google Apps

I am pulling my hair out here. I followed all the steps to install CM7 including selecting Google Apps. After booting up it prompts me for my Google account info and it signs in.
Now the problems begin...
I cannot install anything from the Market. Everything comes up as download is unsuccessful.
However, if I go to the web market, I can install things from there and it works. I have cleared the market and download cache.

Tried reinstalling GAPPS? I had issues with contacts not appearing and no Google accounts listed. I couldnt even add a Google account. Everything was fixed when I booted into recovery and reapplied the GAPPS. What was weird was I could still make/receive calls and texts.
Yup, tried reinstalling Google Apps via CWM. When it reboots it asked me which apps I want to install, but wont install them.
Yes, I have network connectivity. I can install GMail from web market and get my email to work.

Not sure really. May want to post this in the ROM thread.
May have already done so, but I would wipe to factory, cache, dcache, and see if that fixes it. And I came from the Bionix FROYO build running the froyo bootloader. If thats of any help. Also, applying it in ROM Manager would not work for some reason. So I DLed the ROM and GAPPS to my SD and applied manually in recovery after wiping to factory and everything else.

As for the issue, try going to accounts and sync making sure that background data is enabled and make sure you have things syncing to that account. Then remove the account reboot the phone and re-add it through the accounts and sync.
also try re downloading the package could be corrupt

If that doesn't work try wiping your phone.
Seems like this is with my account as my XOOM is doing the exact same thing.
Called Google for support, they cant figure it out either. Escalating to someone else.

Why not. The ROM thread said to not report bugs...not to ask how to fix something. The thread is full of being asking for help to fix issues.
it is not a CM7 issue at this point as it is happening with two different devices and even odin'ing back to a stock rom didn't solve it.

[Q] Trouble with Google Now

I have had an issue on 3 different ROMS with getting a network error when attempting to access Google Now. I have tried everything with the phone and the ROM and I have found out it is something with my google account. I signed in with another account and it is working perfectly. Any ideas? No 2 step verification and I havent opted out of ads and I have tried clearing the Google Search cache
Thanks

[Q] Cannot Install Google Play Services

I am unable to install Google Play Services. I am getting the error "Application cannot be installed in the default install location". I've installed and updated other apps, but this is the only one giving me problems.
This has been going on for a while, but more and more applications require it. I couldn't even get my RedBox app to work anymore.
I just got the latest OTA this morning, and hoped it may somehow fix it, but no luck. Any ideas?

Can't log in with my main account in Youtube Vanced (Android 7.1, Moto E 2gen)

The first time I've downloaded vanced, never had any problems UNTIL I've changed my account's password. Then I had to reinstall both apps, and worked right away.
But... like a week or two later, my account suddenly dissapeared from vanced, and when I try to log in it says:
"Could'nt Sign in -There was a problem communicating with google servers"
I tried everything, like everything. I can't log in to my main account.
I always download the apps from vanced.app.
I tried:
Uninstalling and reinstalling both vanced an microg several times. (I always install first microg)
Disabling/force stopping chorme.
Last step + also reinstalling both apps.
Logging out of my main account.
Logging in with secondary account will work just fine.
I've tried restarting the phone through some of the methods i've listed.
I'm using LineageOS 7.1 on a Moto E 2gen. Non-rooted phone and non-root vanced.

IMHO this is the only reliable source for Youtube Vanced.

This issue may be caused by Corrupted Cache: Temporary/cache files are saved on your device to make the apps work faster. These files may get corrupted and, therefore, cause to misbehave.
Therefore a possible solution - as 1st thing of all things - is to clear the cache of all those misbehaving apps.

Okay I'll check that post out.
But, if clearing all the cache of all apps by the option in Storage would do the job, then, that's not working for me, I've already done that a couple of times. Also manually cleared chrome and even if it makes any sense the vanced and microg even if I was reinstalling them several times.
I really want to know a solution, for the sake of not having to format everytime or something like that.
Oh also, my phone isn't rooted. I'm using vanced non-root.
I've followed the steps that also says are outdated, nothing.
So I've just factory resetted and well, it worked. Gosh. Okay, let's hope it just doesn't happens again.
