Wiping cache wont work. Closing the app wont work. You need to remove the google account from settings>account and sync. Then just open google play and it will ask you to login. Just login and you wont face the error ever again.

Tried to remove the account. It is saying that account is used by some app and cant be removed. I have to do factory reset to remove account. I dont want to do that. Any other way?
One more thing I want to ask. When I tried to remove account it also say that removing account will remove all contacts, messages and other data from phone. Is it true?

Hope this helps
Checked the net - there are LOADS of people having this issue, regardless of ROM being used - it seems to be something with Google Play itself. I saw a few different solutions being offered but none of them were being reported as being a definitive fix.
For me, it started with newly installed apps I had just paid for not showing up on the device - no icon, no entry to create a shortcut with the shell (in my case ADW Pro on ICS 4.0.4 stock, deodexed, rooted VZW Nexus). Strangely enough, when you went to the entry in Play, it showed as installed and you could actually open it from there. I got around this by creating an ADW launcher action - the entry for the actions DID show for the program.... go figure?
I tried clearing the cache and data on Play and rebooting. All that got me was no apps at all showing on the installed section for awhile until it updated. Then I was able to update one app, but still had the sam trouble with the original update that was causing the 403 errors.
Don't think there's any solution out there that truly works for anyone. We're going to have to let Google fix this one, but we should let them know - I already posted one bug report; the more of us that do so will put the isue on the front burner.

If you do a factory reset, all the data will be deleted. However if you remove the google account, the contacts synced with your google account will be shown again in the contacts list once you add the account again.
Faktory reset isn't the right way. I already did it.

What worked for me
Ok so after racking my brain with this issue I found the app I was trying to install / update (which was swiftkey x in this case) was purchased under my other email i used when Google Play was Android Market. So what I did was open up Google Play and for my HTC EVO 4G hit the menu button which allowed me to choose an alternate Google account. I originally purchased and installed my Swiftkey X on a different account than my Google Play was currently on. I picked the account I originally purchased Swiftkey X on, then did a search in which stated purchased, hit update and WAAAAAAAAAAAAA LAAAAAAAAAA!! no more error (403). Hope this helps. Seems like for purchased apps and maybe others Google will look to see which original account you installed it under. So if you were like me and started with one email account and changed it for one reason or another you will have to use whatever account the application was installed under in Google Play / Android Market for updates.
[side note] If you do not see your Google Account listed under Google Play account options. Ensure you have your phone setup for Syncing that particular Gmail account or else you will have to set that up first before proceeding.

Recently, the Google Play store stopped working for me. It kept saying "No Connection" and the Retry button didn't do anything.
I looked up a few solutions, and none of them worked. Finally, I gave up and reset my device to factory settings.
Now, when I try to set up my account, it sits for a minute and then says "Cant establish a reliable data connection to the server".
What should I do?

By the Android Version I think you probably dont have a custom rom. Now since you don't, the easiest way without spending hours on the internet researching is to call your phone provider's technical service and they'll help you. This is a direct and easier method rather then searching online.

Sorry about that. Well if you didn't root it, you should have your warranty and Samsung would definitely help you.
I wouldn't recommend taking any device back unless you have exerted all the possibilities of a fix. People's time is precise in my opinion.
What you can do is try factory resetting your device, it might of been a issue relating to updating the Google Play (Market) application.
Hope this helps.

To clear the data, you find the application (Market) in the applications section of Settings, and then press the button that says "clear data".
I did that, and nothing changed.

Yes, my device was rooted before I reset, and it still is. I have been able to get most of my apps back by using Aptoide (alternative to Market, doesn't require google account).

Well since you have a Google account, try this. Log into your Google account on the computer. Go to the play store. Go to my apps. And download it from there. I highly doubt this will work because you don't have a connection but its worth a quick shot. Also since you do have root, did you backup your apps via titanium or any other app? You could get all your apps and data back that way.

I tried downloading from my PC, but it didn't work because the account wasn't synced. I was able to get pretty much everything back by using the Aptoide store and downloading the .apk files manually. I don't need an account on the device to use it anymore, so everything's fine.
I came out with a solution for you, but you will need to take a couple of steps to get it completely working.
First thing you need to do, is download a Play Store APK file, and save it onto your device. (Click here to download)
Next step, since you're rooted is finding a Root File Explorer to remove the Play Store file you have installed on your device. ( Try This *Note, haven't tested myself*!! ) )
When it's removed, feel free to install the play store apk from the first step to your device.
Hope this helps, is so, feel free to like.

What version of the play store are you running? Also, do you have the background restricted for the play store?
Try the newest Play Store if yours is not up to date. I remember the issue in my S4 and newest version solved it after wiping data and install update.

Yes its the same account I've had going all the way back to the first Android phone. It has gotten better. I ODIn'ed back from a 4.4.2 ROM to a custom 4.3 ROM and my market works most of the time. When it starts actign up I usually have to clear data/wipe caches, restart and wait a bit for it to resync my account. Kind of a pain, but working most of the time is better than none of the time.

How are the Play store on the web working for you when signed in with the account you are having issues with. For me I have trouble loading in anything @all. Especially the top list, and my purchases.
I believe there are issues with older accounts that did not get updated/patched with new settings after ICS update, or the 3.0+ update of their store when it became Play Store and not Android market. When I use my other account all is ok, but there I have no purchased apps.
If you want you can find the 2.3.6 version of Market and replace the Play store and you will find that all issues are gone. Now I use Legazy Play store witch can be used together with normal play. Just need to push it to system/apps on 4.3 or system/priv-apps on 4.4.
Use all this advise at own risk.

Anyone have any luck with this/ age of Gmail accounts?
I just recently started having this issue on a stock GS4A on at&t. Maybe a week ago could not get updates and wrote it off as a busy server then realized this weekend I could not get anything new.
I tried every fix I could find on the forums and even a fix that the 2nd tier Google tech suggested (no different from the forum fixes other than including turning the automatic date/time on and off). Every method was a band-aid at best: one or two apps can come through before I get the 927 error or the DF-BPA-30 error. At least the error codes are consistent...
I honestly think this is related to the age of my account. I have had a Gmail account since 2007 or so when I believe it was still in beta. I am surmising that older accounts are on an older server or something that is having issues. I made two dummy accounts and could download anything I wanted, so there is nothing wrong with my handset or connections. The temporary work-around I am using is adding a secondary gmail account and adding any apps through it, while still using primary for mail, contacts, and calendar. I am not a heavy user, so it works, but I should not have to patch it together like this!
So- anyone who is getting this error; how long have you been a Google user? Anyone else tried "old vs new" for a cause of the error?
When I replied to the 2nd tier tech I told him his method did not work, but asked to look into the account itself. I'll update if I have anything to say.

Ask to get your case transferred to apps division. There I got real help. They are really good. And have helped me a lot.
There are two possible methods to solve error 927 on android:
Method 1:
Go to settings>>”All”>>Select “Google Play Store”
Now Force Stop>>Clear Data>>Clear Cache
Now again try downloading or updating the app
If the above didn’t work, go to settings>>”All”>>Select “Google Play Store”>>Uninstall Updates
Again, from “All”>> Select “Download Manager”>>Clear Data and Cache
Rerun Google Play Store and install/update your app or game
Method 2:
Go to system settings>> Accounts>>Google>>remove your Gmail account
Now from settings>>Apps>>All> Force stop, Clear data and cache for Google Play Store, Google Service Framework and Download Manager (like in method 1)
Now again go to settings>> Accounts>>Google>>Add your gmail account
Restart your android and then accept all the Google terms and setup Google settings
Rerun Google Play Store and update or install your app.

It is the most annoying issue facing by many Android users, that occurs when you download or update any games and apps from the Google play store. But for me, this error solved by the just clear cache.
Guys, I have a problem with Bluestacks app player, the famous Android emulator on PC.
One day while I was using it come out a series of mistakes by google play service, these errors will appear every ten seconds and then I can not use Bluestacks.
Bluestacks try to uninstall and reinstall it after you install it it's all right, but then opening the play store asks me to authenticate my google account, but I did not understand what he meant, so I try to delete my google account from Bluestacks then put it back .
I'm going to put it back, I enter my email and password, I click Next, and I get the normal screen "access ... this may take several minutes."
The problem is that this loading screen does not end! No access to my account, remains on screen access ...!
I tried uninstalling and reinstalling several times by eliminating the data in any way, but nothing, always the same mistake.
Let me know if you can fix this problem or if you can eliminate the BlueStacks and once reinstalled start all over again, as if for the first time I install it ...
Sorry for my bad English ...

Hello.
Have you tried to install adaway and block the ads? I had a problem with a tablet just like you are having now, and solved it that way. Bluestacks works like every android device and I guess itˋs an ad making void the authentification with Play store.

Hello,
I have a pixel XL updated to the android beta, and I wanted to donwload the Google news app. This app is not available in my country so I went to a repository and downloaded an APK. I installed it, and everything works as usual, the app is running smoothly, but when I close it and leave the phone idle for a few minutes the APP dissapears from the launcher. If I try to install it again the phone tells me that is already installed and I can update it, if I do that the app appears again on the launcher and I can use it again.
Can anyone help me with this? should I block permissions for Google Play services (I think that is what is messing with my apps)? or it is possible to install something to prevent this? maybe a modded apk?

If I try to install it again the phone tells me that is already installed and I can update it, if I do that the app appears again on the launcher and I can use it again.
Can anyone help me with this? should I block permissions for Google Play services (I think that is what is messing with my apps)? or it is possible to install something to prevent this? maybe a modded apk?

Have you tried changing the launcher? Since you are using a beta, it might be a bug within the launcher.
HIT THANKS IF FOUND USEFUL

Yeah, I'm using Nova launcher and tried with both, now success . Also the App is not listed in settings -> apps. I can see it on Solid explorer file manager though
Hi did you find your solution?

No, Still looking at it
Obviously the app is not available in your country through the play store. The play store has that function where it verifies apps which I think is called Play Protect. Of you opted in, it could be that.

I think you know more... I have recently wanted to download app(xender) which is unavailable in the country I'm in right now. I tried to use the VPN and clear g at store catch and date... The usual way. It still won't change the country. Would you know how to. Do that?

That is because the location of you play store is still set to your country, you have to change it in options. I can't do that because I have credit in the play store and doing so will take it away
