Galaxy Note hangs during install of downloaded apps. - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

I've owned my Galaxy Note running Gingerbread since March 2012 with no problem. After upgrading to Ice Cream using Samsung Kies a month ago, my Note hangs when installing a downloaded app and never installs the app (downloading Kindle books are not a problem).
I've cleared the RAM and powered the device off, removed the battery and powered the device on again to no avail.
This is an international unlocked Galaxy Note from Germany that was preloaded with a lot of apps. I've only installed 10 apps since purchase.
Suggestions please.

Do you use some type of app scanner that's checking for malware and the like? Im always installing / uninstalling apps. I used Lookout and it really slowed me down. Do they install correctly after the hang? Or do you get a force close?

Try clearing your Play Store data and cache and rebooting.

The app is never installed. However, last night, I turned off my Note, removed the battery and turned it back on. Then I cleared the RAM and cleared the cache. My Note suddenly installed the five apps that were previously downloaded. By the way, I use Norton Mobile Security.
Thanks for your suggestion.

Never had any app installation issues, nor do I have paranoia issues...

Try signing into Google Talk and then go back into the Market. I'm not positive about Honeycomb, but previous versions of Android have used Google Talk as a type of authenticator that the device is registered to a specific user.
I've had this problem as well, sometimes dis/re-connecting to wifi works.
Check your app drawer, they are probably installed. I've been having this problem too. They show up as not installed in the market, yet I'm using them. Use the market report form, and tell them what's happening. I did and they asked for more deets and screenshots.
What I've noticed: If you check the box to add a shortcut, it doesn't happen
If you click the app that says it's not installed, it will show buttons to install and uninstall. Tap install and the list updates, even though the thing was definitely installed before. It has only happened with paid apps, but that may be a coincidence.
Again, report this stuff so they can address it.

[Q] Market crashes after Rom (Theme) install.

Hi all,
Today I've installed ICS DOMINATION v4.0.1 and I must say I am very impressed with it and it runs very smooth, finally my Galaxy s2 looks more like a ICS phone.
The Issue is,
After I installed this Rom I couldn't find the Android Market, I was told to find Play Store after the previous Market recently got updated into Play Store.
I have found Play Store and I installed it, I accepted the terms and it's all good.
But when I tried to search for a App, it crashed and every time I try to open Play Store it crashes.
It's pretty frustrating and I hope you people can help me out here?
Kind regards.

It doesn't work!
C'mon people, I really need some help out here.
After uninstalling updates clear data, delete vending.apk from system/app
And redownload Google play market from themes and apps section and install it

Back to stock (or GB custom rom) & wait for official ICS if you really want to get rid of the problem.
When Google Market switched to Play Market or whatever the new name is, I found that where I had it on my home screen was broken and needed to pulled from the app drawer again. It even needed a reboot first.
Again, just now almost, I had a problem and resolved it the same way but this time it was more apparent because I had a broken icon on the home screen as well. Same thing; had to pull it from the app drawer.
Both times this happened while I was in the middle of updating apps.
There is this possibility, long shot as it may be...

Apps randomly uninstalling ?

Anyone seeing apps randomly uninstalling? I've noticed it in the past few weeks since I did a reset. The shortcut icon will just be the green Android one, and it says the app has been uninstalled. The App Store says it's still installed though, so I have to uninstall manually, then reinstall. Anyone know what's going on??

yes i have the same issue with NBA game time app...i reinstalled about couple times, and it just got uninstalled on its own...but just that one app, never had any problems with any others
Some of my apps randomly disappear and then they come back.
Was the apps in question ever moved to the sdcard?
Wait....I sent this with Tapatalk?
Not for me. All my apps are on my phone itself.
It's been doing that to me too. Usually when im in gprs-land when i can't download it again. Very annoying.
Mine did it to, but only when I had an excessive amount of apps installed

The same happened to my six or seven apps. All of them were installed inside the phone itself and never moved to the ext_sd_card.
However I noticed, this has been happening to the apps what were installed manually from .apk, in other words not through the Android Market..
Again for the past five days what I am running pretty much debloated ICS - nothing like this happens to my operational environment...

S health constantly crashing. Any fix?

So before I rooted my s4 I tried the s health app and I could not get past the profile screen. I lost interest after a several attempts. I rooted my phone and still running the stock firmware. I figured after a roughly 1 1/2 months samsung would put through an update. I went to open the s health app and still no luck.
I'm on a version galaxy s 4 and was wondering if anyone else is having this issue?
Note: I searched before I posted and found no threads related to this issue.
Rooted S4
Clear app data?
Sent from my SCH-I545 using xda premium
Cleared app data and un installed updates. Once I set up the profile and hit next, I get a black screen and the app crashes with the error message " s health stopped responding". Very annoying as I had this problem since day 1.
Rooted S4
Is there anyone else on this board that is rooted and has a working s health apk?
Rooted S4
Ok so I floated over to the at&T Q&A section and apparently if you have the multi window hack installed on your phone it will cause the s health app to crash!.
I uninstalled the hack and immediately when I opened up s health an update was available. apk was update to version 2.1.5 and I have no issues any more. But i lost the multi window hack which was pretty sweet.
Workaround? Samsung multi-window manager from the Play store.
found a fix
Mutli window manager I got paid version but just add s health to black list it will update and wha la

Gear S Apps Stuck on Installing

I have a Gear S SM-R750A and when I try to install apps from the Gear Manager App Store they stick on Installing. I can use the Galaxy App Store to download normal apps to my Note 4 without issues just not to the Gear S. I am currently running Software Version R750AUCU1AOB1 and running 5.1.1 on the Note 4. Please let me know if anyone has found a fix to this issue. I have tried resetting my Gear S and reinstalling the Gear Manager as well.
I'm running stock rom on note 4 and I have this happen from time to time as well. Haven't found a fix other than canceling the installation and waiting a while to try again.

I have the same issue with my stock Note 3 and Gear s. Sammy has been no help. I have reset my phone and watch but that didn't help. I stay stuck on installing. Canceling doesn't help. Frustrated as hell. I won't buy another Gear x until they fix this. Don't get me started talking about Tizen. Not a fan.
Hi this happened to me. I did a restart of the phone and gear s and that fixed the problem.
I've tried restarting and reinstalling my watch to my phone several times. No luck. I am running stock everything with the most current firmware updates. No luck. Not rooted. My watch worked before I reset my phone using Kies and that's when everything stopped working. I can't even run opera mini. My watch gets stuck on installing. The phone says it downloads then goes to installing. ..forever. When Igo to my app manager, the apps I installed are not there. Btw, I have a note 3 along with my gear s.
Fixed
I finally fixed this problem. I did a total reset of my phone TMO Note 3 and my Gear S. I backed up my files on my computer, not using Kies. Reboot and reinstall all my apps, check for problems after every 3 apps. Works. I'd like to send a shot out to Samsung for their assistance. However, anything I shouted would need to be edited for expletives. Uncle Sammy was no help. Tizen still sucks. The app store is crap.... unless you want a watch face.
