Hi there
I hope someone can help me or give me a pointer. The short story is that Google Play has reverted to the Android Market (v2.3.4) and I can't download anything from the Market.
The longer story is this...
I have a Samsung Galaxy S2, bought sim-free over a year ago, running Android 2.3.3. Yesterday I had a problem with Google Play not being able to download some apps. This was clearly wrong: I had 1.5GB free of 16GB. In the course of trying to fix this (ha!), and trying to find recovery mode, I borked the device further. Google Play reverted to Android Market v2.3.4, and some apps got messed up in random ways and consistently crashed. I uninstalled some of the crashing apps, but I still cannot download anything from the Market in order to reinstall them.
I've cleared cache and cleared data for various apps and services: Market, Download Manager, Google Play Services (odd that that's still there), Google Services Framework, and maybe some others.
The problem with the Market is that when I touch to download an app it readies itself for the download (moving diagonal lines on the progress bar) and then the progress bar disappears as if it's finished. There is no download, and certainly no install, but no error message either. On the other hand my web-based Google Play account says I've just downloaded it. And meanwhile my web-based Google Play account says there are no devices associated with my account.
Given the situation with Market, I can't even download something like MarketFixer which may help. I can sideload apks, but I can't find a (legitimate-looking) apk like MarketFixer to download.
I've never rooted my device, so I don't expect to have to do that to fix this. Before do a factory reset, does anyone have any ideas?
Many thanks
Nik
Update: Solved in thread below
ah darn!! i thought i could help you, up until the point where you said you didn't root . If you rooted then you could just install the latest version of google play

Thanks for even thinking of that, dragid10.
Hmm... theoretically, if I routed, where would I get the latest version of Google Play from? I can't access the Market, after all.
There are a few threads in the apps forum here on XDA one is http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1932489
I also don't think you need to be rooted to install it. Just make sure you turn on unknown sources from settings(either under applications or security)
Also have you tried uninstalling updates for the market or removing your Google account from your phone and re-adding it.
Edit:Updated thread URL original one was a closed thread.

nsmith4, thank you. That's moved me a bit forward. I couldn't find a Google Play apk, and now I've got Google Play back on my device, and the web version of Google Play knows about my device again.
(I did try to delete my Google account and it refused me. It said it was needed by some applications and should do a factory reset instead!)
So now it seems I'm back to my original problem: I (still) can't download any apps from Google Play because it says (wrongly) there's insufficient space on device. I shall keep looking for an apk of MarketFixer or similar. This problem is now the same as the one reported here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1436188
although of course I cannot download MarketFix to help me fix the market.
Update: That install of Google Play didn't stick. When I rebooted the phone it took me through the Android initiation process (asked for Google username and password) and Market was back in place of Play.
Looks like a problem with factory resetting every time you restart. That is a bigger problem. Google Play will automatically update itself (all update to com.android.vending will).
Try taking the ICS update (if you haven't already), you need a fresh install of the OS. Or you can root and install a ROM. Same thing

You say you "borked the device further". The question is, what happened? What did you do, and what got borked, in what way? If you don't even know, then it will be difficult or impossible to repair. The easiest and fastest solution will be to install a fresh ROM, like Gagdude said.

gagdude, post-mortem: No, I didn't keep a careful record of what I did. The "borking" is a combination of the problems listed above. I'm going to do a factory reset and upgrade to ICS, as suggested, thanks. Will keep you posted.
Mid-point update: Successfully factory reset my phone (Volume up + Power on, factory reset, then reboot). Now my SIM card isn't recognised (sigh).
The same problem, but with a different device, is here:

Downloaded the new YouTube update today. Opened it. I get a pop-up stating I don't have Google Play services installed on my phone and its needed to run the app (or at least sign in).
So I go to download it... It downloads, starts installing and then I get an error message saying "incompatible with other applications using the same shared ID"
Anyone else having this issue? I'm at a loss...
Getting this same error on my iconia a500. Any ideas how to fix this?
Luckily I titanium'd recently so I was able to roll back but I want to upgrade and this is annoying the crap out of me.
Updated the error message
Argh... Tried a fresh install and still an issue... Wife is having the same issue
Are you guys running custom ROMs? What type? Stock based? Custom kernel? ASOP?

I have the exact same problem. I updated the YouTube app from Google Play last night. When I opened it, a message displayed saying that I needed to install Google Play Services. When I tried to install it, I got the same error message as you.
I tried doing a factory reset and then attempted to install Google Play Services before I restored any apps, but no luck.
I'm not running any custom ROMs. I'm running the stock version of Android (4.0.3) that came with my iDeaUSA YG A777 tablet. I don't have any custom kernels, either.

Running Vigor 360. Problem didn't show up until latest YouTube update. It seems others on Nils business sense are having issue too.
people with this problem can you please check something for me.
go to settings > apps "all tab" and look for google services framework\
if this is here: clear data, then reboot.
No go. Found it, cleared data, rebooted
Went into market, updated YouTube. Opened it, get the pop-up saying Google Play services needs to be installed, hit ok, takes me to the market to install it. It downloads, goes to install them I get the incompatible error.
This sucks :/

thank god for titanium backup, restoring things so easily.
I had this problem running Nils Business ICS 3.6, flashed Rezone Redux last night.....now everything plays happily.
Yeah, I'm starting to think its a issue with a certain type of sock-based custom ROM.....
I think it has something to do with ROMs that already have services installed. I am checking it out.

A solution to this problem that worked for me was found on another Android forum.
Because I'm new to this forum, I'm not allowed to post links. So, if you put "Google Play services won't install" into Google (with the quotes), then it should be the first page that comes up.
PM me the link. I'll post it.
I'm also having the same problem. I've installed custom rom jellyblast.
Is there any fix yet?

Use the instructions from the following guide,
Android Fix: Error 491 in Google Play Store
Don't forget to clear out the data and cache of Google apps mentioned in the guide right after you remove your GMail account. If the first method doesn't work, then try the second one. Do post the result. Hope I Helped
This guide did not help ether, I tryed both methods without sucess, still error 491.
Is this maybe a ROM bug, because some user seems to be the same issue as well mentioned in:

The playstore fix is for error 492-498 and not for 491. You can understand the Google errors and its possible solution from the following guide,
[Help Thread] Google play errors Explained (with fixes)
As for the error 491, try repeating the first method but this time make sure to delete the Google Play updates too when you remove your account. As far as I know error 491 is not a rom bug. Most of the people had this problem solved just by removing the Google account, clearing out the cache associated with Google Play & Play services, uninstalling the Play updates, rebooting and finally adding the Google account again followed by installing the updates. Do post the result. Hope I Helped
still no change, did exactly all things mentioned on the website. Besides, there was no option to deinstall the google service update.
The only eplanation I can see it must be a rom bug.

For general google errors this is true, but in this case, the error is caused by missing DRM (Digital Rights Management) libraries and binaries.
I have looked through the source code to find the specific files, and compiled them using the BroadcomCM.
Now everything is working fine =)

It is "kind of" a rom bug, the source code of the rom is working fine, but some of the libraries weren't included in the final build.
So I've added it via the gapps package, and now everything is working fine.
You can try my gapps package.
It's working for me. Tested with CM 9.1 Beta 5.

After several days of investigation I've found the solution.
A specific library and a binary was not included in the ROM (which is apparently needed by Google Play).
I read the log files, searched the missing files and compiled the corresponding source code using the BroadcomCM repository.
I included the missing files in the Google Apps package and added some lines to the updater-script, and voila a working Google Play
Changelog:
Added libdrmframework_jni.so to /system/lib
Added drmserver to /system/bin
Modified updater-script to set the permissions

Yes, it will work. But you should check if you are having the same problem.
Look into your /system/lib/ folder and search for "libdrmframework_jni.so".
Do the same with your /system/bin/ folder and search for "drmserver".
If both files are missing, then this Google App Package will fix your Error.
The libraries and binaries are also working for Totoro.
PS:
Just wait a few minutes, I'm currently writing/posting a new/better version.
Stay tuned

If you have already installed a google apps package, which throws a 491 error, you should uninstall it first.
Because my previous google apps package (or the GearCM package) has old certificates, and therefore you cannot update Google Play Services, which is needed by some apps.
First Option
Therefore I recommend, that you uninstall the old version first.
Here is a detailed guide on how to do this [GUIDE] How to fix and upgrade Google Play Services.
Second Option
If you don't have stored data on your phone, you can also flash the rom again to delete your system partition.
Then you can install my new package without uninstalling the previous package.

It's pretty straightforward, there are several apps that do this. You can search in Baidu.com for Gapps and the apk will show up. Install it, press the big button and there you go. You can also find several tutorials in Youtube, if you don't know how the app looks like.
Alternatively, here's another tutorial with a different app: http://en.miui.com/thread-17910-1-1.html
somehow i'm able to install Gapps using the installer, i don't know what i did to fix it, anyway its all good now, btw the link you gave is for device that is not bootloader locked

it seem that after you login to playstore, you need to wait for a while for it to sync in order for you to be able to download apps, otherwise you'll get unable to contact server error message

the google installer worked to install the apps but they couldn't establish a connection to the servers. I had to restore my playstore and google apps from a titanium backup file I had and then it would work. So anyone not able to get on google apps try installing old titanium backups, it may work.
One thing to note with all of these is sometimes it just needs time.
After all, the play services and framework often have to register with Google and also update themselves (you're not guaranteed to get the most up to date version for each even with the installer).
I installed mine and they registered fine. But as soon as I tried to download an app from the play store I got weird errors.
Left it a day and boom, worked fine.
I've tried several suggestions listed in the Forum, the engines do not show up in the Play Store, when you try and go to the pages by following links posted here it says item not found. I want to try and run package disabler Pro which says that it does not need any plug in, it gives me error 204. Any help would be greatly appreciated

I am assuming you did the search via the Google Play client installed on your phone. I went to the Google Play website, logged in, and did a search for both successfully. Try it and see if you can install that way.

i tried, and the bk plugin still shows up as not found. i can see and install bk disabler (only if i click on a link to it, not if i search for it on the website or app) but the plugin is "not found" both on phone and desktop.

Have you tried to open the app on your phone? If I remember correctly, the app will recognize that you don't have the plugin/addin and re-direct you to install.

Package disabler Pro is still giving me this mysterious error 204, I have emailed the developer and I hope that he will be able to send me a response, installing the file that he links to on his website called Pdpengine3.Apk does not do anything at all.
As for BK disabler, I installed it and indeed it does ask me to install the engine. When I click on install engine it simply brings me through a Google Play page that says item not found. I'm so sad but I guess there is not more that can be done at this moment? Either way thank you for your help. If you have any more ideas I would be happy to try them.
You need to install the MDM extension app
hi, i formatted my S9+ just when BK Manager and MDM Extension apks were removed from Play Store.
my question is, i have both of these apks files in my storage, will i be able to install them manually and whether the disabler app will still work as it was before? can someone kindly advise?
i have emailed the developer a couple of times asking the same questions, but not getting any response or help and was never my intent to ask for a refund.
File 1. com-kunkunsoft-packagedisabler1515128400
File 2. MDM_Extension_2_Full
as for the time being, is there any other good disabler app that we can use safely? i feel so lost without this app/feature.
thank you.

If you have the complete apks you can certainly try and see if BK Manager installs properly - I don't see why both the Manager & MDM extension wouldn't?
This is the second time that this app (previously known as BK Disabler) has been removed... Hopefully it will re-emerge as a new app again? ?
