(Q) Play Store goes to main Page? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

If I'm looking for an app on the Play Store, then open a different app, then go back to the Play Store, it'll show the app you were looking at, then go back to the main Page of the store. Is there a fix for this? It's extremely annoying. I've wiped the cache and data but nothing has changed. Thanks!

Can't purchase any apps in Google Play

Hey guys,
For about 5 months now, I've been unable to purchase any apps in Google Play. In fact, I can't even see paid apps, only free ones.
I've tried clearing the data and cache for Google Play. I've restored the device to factory settings using the volume down and power button several times. None of that has worked.
I've emailed Google about it, but they have been useless. The only way for me to get paid apps on my tablet is to purchase them on my phone and then download them on my tablet. Which isn't ideal as some apps are incompatible on my phone. And I've noticed there are a lot of apps incompatible with the Transformer Prime.
I live in the UK and the device is set to UK. Please can someone help, it's driving me mad!

Not a solution but you can also purchase apps on the google play web and push them to your tab.
I can't, when I go through the website, my tablet is greyed out and won't let me purchase apps on to it.
I can't even see paid apps on the website! What the hell is going on??

Create another google play account to purchase apps for your prime with?!
What about the apps I've purchased with my current Google account, can I still use them?

Things currently installed shouldnt stop working I would think.
At any rate, it was really a suggestion to narrow the problem down to the account, not your device. Then take that info to google and tell them to freaking fix it.
I'm sure you want to get your gmail etc... so you would have to switch accounts everytime you bought something. Not practical.
You could though say "Hey google, I made this new account named X, logged in with my prime and was able to add apps.
Ah, yes, that's a good idea. I will try that over the weekend. Thanks for the suggestion.

Well, I tried making another account but it's still not showing any paid apps. I'll send an email to Google, see if they can come up with a solution.
If anyone can think of anything else, please let me know.

Can't download Airdroid or is it all apps? What ROM. What Play Store version?
Delete your Google account and re-add it (from main system settings, account... not in Google play). Make sure you remember your username/pass. Works for me.. but it seems to be needed every so often again.. not sure if there's permenant fix. Using stock Google Play 3.10.10
Just started happening last couple of days.

Go to settings, applications, "all", clear cache + wipe data on Google Play Store AND Google Play Services, reboot into recovery, wipe cache + dalvik cache. Should fix it.

Full Playstore on PC / Device

I'm from India and we do not have full playstore. As soon as I login even when using USA VPN, play store shows me only apps and not the full version. Although as soon as i logout i can again view full play store.
Till 2 days ago I was able to access full site after login.
What can be the reason?? Plz help
On same PC when I use my brother's id I can see full play store. Something wrong with my account..??? It seems like Google has blocked my account for these services. M not able to make any purchases other than from App section.

How to stop Google now from installing?

Hi all
I don't have Google now installed. But when I start to use Google search, now keeps trying to install itself. Can I permanently remove now? And just have search?
This is for CM10.1
Thanks

Have you tried starting Google Search, then Settings, then Google Now > Off ?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Thanks for your response
I have been there, it is already "off".
It is almost like Google Search is advertising Now, but I don't want it ask me to install Now every time, I just want to go straight to search.
Even hitting the microphone opens the Google Now install window, then I must hit the back button to go back to regular search.
This is really annoying for someone who doesn't want google now installed.

Google sound search not working on my One with the latest CM11 rom

Hi guys!
As the title says, for some reason the Google Sound Search app does not work on my phone with CM11. I have cleared the shops cache and even uninstalled it then reinstalled it, yet I still can't get it to work. When I click on the widget to try and use it, it says "opps, request failed. Retry?"
Any help would be great. Thanks!

I had a similar issue with this with OmniRom. I ended up having to uninstall Google Search (MAKE SURE YOU HAVE AN ALTERNATE LAUNCHER!) with RootAppDelete and then reinstall with with Google Play.
After I did that the voice search complete w/ "OK Google" started working again.
Once again. Change to an alternate launcher before force uninstalling Google Search as it is integrated in with the KitKat launcher.
It's not the voice search that's broken, it's the app that listens to the music then tells me the artist and song name. Google Ears I think it was called.
I tried what you suggested anyways but I still have the issue.

It's still there - just well hidden
If you go to google now or type on the mic in google search and there is some kind of music playin you'll see a blue 'note' on right bottom of your screen. Just tap on it ....
