Google Play randomly locks up - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Google Play randomly locks up my SGS2 running CyanogenMod 7:
Nothing else gives this problem on my phone, and my phone also had this same problem with the old Google Market App. Is there anyone else having the same problem as me, and more importantly does anyone know a fix

you could try clearing the cache, settings-->applications-->manage applications-->select google play and clear cache.

it is a known issue with cwm 7.1 and s2. have a read to the official cwm forum... workaround use appbrain. the issue occurs when you scroll in the market/play app

OK Guys thanks for the pointers.

I'm getting Google PLay FCs all the time!
I don't why my google play is giving continous force closures.removing cache or unistalling update is not working.

No answer here but at least you'll know you are not alone.

[Q] Many problems with google play market

Hi everybody
I have been reading this forum many times but no luck in finding the solution.
I have bought my self a POV Protab2XXl last week with Android 4.0
But since the market was updated to Google play i only have problems.
There are many apps i suddenly can not find anymore ( like facebook ) or some apps i try to install i get the message "your device isn't compatible with this item"
I have tried many things based on the forum. I have changed the density, but that one is set to 160 which is ok and other density does not help either.
Did clear cache and everything else you can do to remove old data, but without luck.
Yesterday i reflashed it to android 2.3 and updated to new market. all problem is gone.. What changed in 4.0 and the new google play that the market behaves like this ??
Anybody else having these issues?
I am having lots of problems with Google Play this morning. On the Web side I can not see my rooted Kindle Fire. On the KF side I cannot install any apps.
I just got off the phone with Google Tech support. His suggestion was to roll back to Market since people are having problems with rooted devices and Play.
Is anyone else experiencing problems with a rooted KF and the Google Play app store? Any suggestions?
EDIT: I unselected my KF under devices on the Play web site and then I was able to install an app from the KF. WTF?
My Google Play Store stopped working yesterday after the newest Asus Transformer Prime update. It worked before, now I'm getting lots of server errors & connection timeouts.
Same here, almost seems as if someone DoS the servers...
I do not think this is directly relevant to an update, more like an infrastructure problem at Google's servers

I'm also having FCs all the time when I start downloading an app since yesterday (ver. 3.5.15). If I clear data and cache in app preferences, I can start the play store again - but still not download possible. The app crashes also when I try to install an app from the web interface.
SOLVED for me:
- I moved com.android.vending.apk from data/app to system/app,
- booted into recovery,
- cleared cache and dalvik cache,
- booted and everything works now.
Problem with Google play

Android market force close problem

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.

[Q] After JB update, play store crashing

To start off, I have searched for a solution to this problem on here, and I have found nothing about it. I apologize if this thread exists (I have searched for it) and if it does, then please point me in the right direction. Thanks. As for the problem, every time I try to open the Google Play store it closes right way. This did not happen before receiving the Jelly bean update. I was wondering if any of you have encountered a similar problem. If so, have you found a way to fix it? Additional information: Stock jelly bean, unrooted

Unfortunately, I have tried that and it did not work. Basically it at least pulled up the play store page for a second then immediately crashed, instead of crashing right away. Still crashed though

Had Google play crashes myself after my navigation/maps was crashing too...now that its a known fact about navigation having issues I've just waited patiently for that particular fix....I seemed to have gotten lucky and don't have Google play crashing for last 2 days by:
A. Not using navigation til fix os found
B. Wiping 3x and reinstalling stock rooted chubbz jellybean rom.
Don't know if it has direct corrolation to navigation issue buts at least kept Google play from crashing for me since. Hope that helps.

[Q] Problem with play store. FC + No connection.

Hello people!
I've been through alot of solutions and i still couldn't fix it. Hence this thread.
An hour ago i started my regular update run, updating 6 apps. After updating the first app, play store force closed. This didn't happen to me for ages, so i thought let's start by clearing the cache of download manager and google play store. This didn't work, so i tried uninstalling the updates. and rebooting the phone.
At this point play store worked again, so i tried updating another app. But after this updating, the fc was back. So i repeated the cache clearing and found somewhere that if i did that with google framework, play would probably come back. But it didn't.
So after this i rebooted again and started google play. And it started. But now things got worse. Google play gives me a no connection retry since then. Even after clearing dalvik and rebooting again.
So i guess my question is clear. How do i get play working again on my phone?
Thanks in advance for answering!
P.s. I also found a solution which said to remove and add the google account, but on my xperia z1 with 4.4.4 i can't seem to find that option?

Google play services has stopped - repeatedly

Have a i9300 with CM11 M12 installed. Since yesterday have been repeatedly getting the error that Google play services has stopped. It pops up every 5 sec driving me crazy
Some triggers
- turning on GPS at high accuracy
Solutions tried
- uninstalled google play services, Google play store and Google app. Cleared cache and reupdated. Did not help
- i keep GPS off to avoid this. But that's a pain

I'd suggest reinstalling your gapps again. It sounds like a bad flash.

Have been using this gapps for a long time right from CM11 M7 to CM11 M12. But will give it a shot. How do you reinstall gapps and where can i get it from
You guys were right about the limits. I solved this in a weird way. Turned on privacy control for google play in setting>privacy>privacy guard. Then gave it all the permissions by putting all the drop down boxes as "always allow"
Seems to have worked till now. No errors happening
