Android market force close problem - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a problem, my droid razr was having problems updating apps and getting an error 941, people said to uninstall the update to fix it so I did that and the market (play store) disappeared. I found the apk and re-installed the play store but whenever I try and update my apps its FC and keeps FC untill I clear the cache and data. Does anyone have a solution to this? Nothing is working.

I had the same problem on my XPlay. Try this: rootzwiki.com/topic/15092-invertedtotally-inverted-apps-3-16-play-store-updated/ - look for Vending.apk.
You get zip file. Flash it in recovery.
Sent using r800i with DoomKernel v11 (1.21ghz)

it's for ICS
That's just real nice, but it's a solution for those who have Ice Cream Sandwich

Same problem on my tablet running Android 2.2.1 (Entourage eDGe) rooted and instaled gapps, even get newest google play and worked fine till today.
Do not know what happened.
Nothing I do won't work.
Best I got is after everething cleared in apps properties to have "server error" in market.
Also noticed Talk is not working anymore and I can not add another google account in "account & sync menu".
Gmail, youtube and contact works fine.
wi-fi working and only connection (tried on diferent AP)
Noticed also simmilar problem on one of my smartphones and solved by going on cell data and everything worked fine on wi-fi also after that.

I think tehre is a store version with bug and mod from site in my first post is older so it works. try to delete android updater.apk and than install older version [need root]

I have solved my problem..
..by upgrading my CM7.1 version to the 7.2 RC in my motorola Defy. I can't post the links, but search for CM7 7.2 RC (http www cyanogenmod com / blog / cyanogenmod-7-2-0-rc1-is-upon-us)

download of angry birds and google map over 3g giving issues like download unsuccessful but when connect via wi-fi it works?! any idea?
I don't know if this will help but, back in 1.6 I had the "unable to download" error.
From the main screen I went to "menu key> Settings > Applications > Manage Applications", then found the Market App and used the "remove updates", "clear cache" and "force stop" options. Next time I oppened the market it was working fine.
PS-> the option names ware translated from portuguese and may not be exactly what you'll find on the eng version.

Just got back my phone from vodafone repair centre, had the motherboard replaced due to constant reboot when updated to 2.1 anyway just try downloading from market and still facing issues like "download paused" guess it has nothing to do with the phone but vodafone 3G network itself.

Google Maps 6 w/Indoor --> Constant FC

I (finally) upgraded to the Official CM7.1 and Google apps yesterday (From CM 7.03).
Wiped Dalvik only.
After the update, Market worked fine, and there was an update to Google Maps. I upgraded, did a quick test, and it seemed fine.
A few hours later, there was another Google Maps update to 6.0 (B) with Inside Maps, so I updated again -- Normal update through the Market.
I can navigate around, but doing much anything results in a freeze and FC pretty quickly.
Nothing else at all has FC since I updated.
Now the Web-Based Market says maps is incompatible with my device, but there is no official way to get a working, current Google Maps.
I know I can re-install Google Apps, but I just wanted to warn people not to try 6.0 for the moment.
I'll post a logcat if anybody wants it.
Similar running GtabComb3.3 (B/L 1.2) , but the tablet will reboot shortly after launching Maps (latest updated version).
It'll reboot shortly after launching......while in Maps using it or if you just launch Maps (like accidentally or such) and exit back to the homescreen........a few seconds later...REBOOT. Every time.
I've uninstalled updates so the tablet doesn't reboot, but I need the previous version so I can at least be more updated than what comes with GtabComb
6.0.1 is out now. It worked for a few seconds and then same problem as before. Reboot and broken wifi. Had to uninstall update again.
Yes, Google Maps 6.x will not work on the Gingerbread ROMs for the GTablet... looks like an opengl issue...
Google maps reboot
So has anyone found a way to install an older version. I have tried un-installing maps and installing an old version. Keep getting, unable to install.
I have been having the same issue on both CM7 and Flashback.
**EDIT**
After looking into the GAPPS zip I had, apparently Maps is not included. So I found a copy of maps version 5.10.1 laying around on my PC, I added it to the package and tested it. No Force closes so far. I have uploaded it for anyone else having this issue.
Link mapsgapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip
Just saw there was a 6.03 update for my Dell Streak.
So I updated the Streak, pulled the .apk, and installed it on the GTab.
No luck. 6.03 is no better. Constant hang and FC.
I also have a 5.x around that I was smart enough to pull from the Streak before the first update to 6.0x, but thanks to trock79 for posting a fall back.
Wait for 6.04, rinse, repeat.
It's fixed!
I updated the latest maps (released on 4/25) and the issue has been fixed!
Hurray!!!
Not for me.
I wiped everything, and upgraded to Official CyanogenMod 7.2 RC2.
Installed latest (Current) Maps from market.
--> Almost immediate bad crash requiring a reboot.
I wonder if this has anything to do with 1.1 B/L vs. 1.2?
I'm on 1.1 (never upgraded)
maps crash
I was running Flashlight, GB, 1.2 and was crashing. Flashed CM 7.2 RC 3, still crashes.
So is the current fix to get a working google maps is to stick with the v.5 install?
I'm on G-Harmony ICS, bootloader 1.2

SGPT111GB/S - after official update google play wont oen

My friends owns a SGPT111GB/S he recently applied the latest update when it appeared in the notification area. He's a normal end user, tablet hasnt been rooted or any custom firmware loaded onto it.
4.0.3 (Release A)
2.6.39.4
TISU0R0030110
There is now a problem where he cannot open "google play" it is very odd as the icon for "google play" is the old style android market icon and it even says "market". As soon as you attempt to open it the app closes with no visible error.
I've tried the following
1) Reset Factory Config
2) Reset Factory config with wiping USB drive option
3) Finding google play APK from android authority and installing that replacing the "market" app
Anyone have any suggestions or where I can download the previous firmware from as Sony's site only shows latest available.
Cheers

Try clearing that data / cache for the app. Under app info. The old market has to update to google play the first time but it shoul have just updated with the update. Other than that factory reset and start again.

i remember seeing similar issues in the Woot discussion thread. someone provided the official solution by Sony: http :// www .kb.sony .com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?cmd=displayKC&externalId=C1029387&fes=true
seems that uninstalling the update once will help?
Oops, links not allowed yet for me.... please remove those weird spaces....
Have tried clearing the app data but no luck.
The KB you linked doesnt quite apply to me as google play isnt installed after the firmware update.

[Q] ArchiDroid 2.2.4 cannot install GMaps anymore

Hello,
atfer i updated from ArchiDroid 2.2.3 to 2.2.4 i saw that GMaps wasnt shown in the Launcher anymore, so i checked and it isnt even installed on my device.
When i try to install it from the Play Store i get the Error Code: Incompatible with other applications(s) using the same shared user ID
So i tried to flash the latest GApps package for CM but still GMaps isnt showing up.
Does anybody know how i can fix this problem?
Regards,
Fixi
Same Problem
Have got exactly the same problem using ArchiDroid V1.7.3, issue was mentioned in the Develpoment section but the only solution offered was to wait a few hours until Google Play recognises the phone.
The rom been installed for several days now & I'm still unable to install G Maps from the store due to the ID issue, short of reinstalling the rom has anybody got any thoughts?
Thanks...
Hey.
You can download inverted GMAPS directly from my github -> https://github.com/JustArchi/ArchiD...system/app/com.google.android.apps.maps-1.apk then put into /system/app. Otherwise make sure that there's no uninstalled junk left in /system/app and /data/app directories. You can also clear google store's data. Eventually if everything fails you can full wipe and make sure to UNTICK google maps in aroma (if you don't want inverted version), it's unticked in the default configuration.
Let me know if you have further problems.
Have fun with ArchiDroid.
All Done
Many thanks for the info Archi, worked perfectly. Love the Rom, super smooth... :victory:

Google Play Store keeps crashing from fresh GB install of Xperia U (ST25i)

Hello,
I tried to go back to a GB official ROM (got some lags in ICS that didn't exist at all with GB), but I'm getting in trouble with Google Play Store.
Indeed, everything works perfectly on the phone, but when I want to download an app from Google Play store application, it keeps crashing (FC) after I accept terms and conditions.
This problem doesn't exist with a ICS official ROM. I don't know if it's because it's an "old" ROM, but I find this a bit silly that an "old" phone could not be used just because of an app malfunction.
I already tried a fresh install (wipe everything) and a "restore settings" from the settings menu.
I would like to know if I'm the only one to have this problem and if a fix exists.
My phone is BL FYI.
I found this but didn't tried yet : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1582422
Thanks for your help.
