Greetings,
I've a problem with Google Play, well it's not exactly a problem, just sort of an inconvenience,
The app keeps recommending me apps based on apps that I've installed a long time ago, "Popular with 'app name' users",
I tried cleaning my search history and app history, and cleaned my cache thinking it was reading it, but nothing helped.
It's really annoying and I'd be grateful if somebody could help me address the "inconvenience".
Thanks in advance

Hi,
I installed HyDrOG3N today(not todays build, the one from 31.3),
And then of course I installed Google Music app from the market.
when trying to make my playlist available offline,
I got an connection error.
I tried reboot, clear the app's data.
nothing helped.
I remember there should be a notification that request authorizations,
but I haven't got one.
Any help would be appreciated.
Problem solved
apparently, I had the over 10 devices authorized problem.

Here a simple guide how to solve it.
Hello everyone, I've got a question. Sometimes while searching on google I find a forum post (usually about Android or something like that) and I click on it, and it loads up a porn website ad! I have to go back and then click the link again! I have no idea how this is happening.
I don't download any warez on my phone, all my apps are off the market.
It's independent of the browser. I've used Opera, firefox, and chrome.
I thought "OK, maybe I have downloaded SOMETHING incorrectly!" so I flashed my device and EVERYTHING is stock and ALL the apps are reloaded by themselves from the Play Store restore feature upon turning on the device.
I clicked a link that went to androidforums.com and I my device automatically started downloading an APK! It was called "hotvideos-rm-rp1.apk" and I thought WHAT IN THE WORLD IS HAPPENING!
What can I do to stop this? This is absurd! I've never used my phone to look at any porn! I don't have any warez or cracked apps or anything like that.
Can anyone help me? This is starting to bother me deeply.
I'm on a Galaxy Note 4.0.4 stock configuration.
Thank you SO much in advance!
hi, check exactly what apps are being restored by playstore, add adblock or simliar if possible, backup pictures,vidoes,music, contacts etc from sdcard and then format sdcard..........btw i`m not talking from experience, i`m just suggesting some steps to follow......hope it solves your problem
I suggest you download adsfree from market to stop those anoying porn ads, adsfree require root. Another way is using and airpush to detect which are bad ads apps and uninstall them all. Hope that help.

Hi, thanks for your reply. I knew all the apps that were installed, I guess one of them must be buggy. I had backed up my stuff and just reflashed my device and including the SD card, and just resyncing some information over (of course all google information) and then no pictures or videos. I just started anew. It still happened. Thanks though.

I don't have root,but I tried the app Airpush and it didn't find anything. But I did uninstall 5 or 6 apps yesterday before installing Airpush to see if I had any bad apps. I guess it's possible the app isn't installed anymore. But I haven't done much browsing of the web to see if the issue is remedied. Hopefully it is.
Thanks for your advice. I'll report back with the apps I've uninstalled if it turns out to be one of them that was the problem. I've got a 3 hour bus ride today to another city and I'm going to using my phone a lot to browse! Thanks again .
I keep getting this error and it seems to only happen when accessing location. I have a Tasker rule to have location turned off and it only turns on for certain apps that require it (Maps, Google Now, Espn apps, etc), every time I open those apps and the rule gets executed this error pops up. I've searched this problem and tried every suggestion, wipe cache/data, uninstall updates, factory reset, reset app defaults, install previous version, nothing seems to work. Version 5.2 seems to not give me the error, but certain Google apps won't function without the updated version, and even if I live without them, Play Services just updates itself (despite turning Auto-Updates off and detaching it from the Market in TB). Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, it's an irritating error to frequently receive.
Same problem
I have this exact problem and like the OP have tried everything. Nothing seems to work. Any help would be much appreciated!

I finally figured out what was causing it, I had a Location Consent Disabler mod that was causing it. The new version of Play Services lets you select not to show the pop up again making the mod obsolete. If you have that mod, uninstall and it should go away
Hey I too had the same mod. thanks for point it out.
Hello everybody. I have been having problems with downloading items from the Play store on my Android phone. After spending hours trying to solve the issue by myself and seeking help unsuccessfully, I've gotten desperate.
The problem description is that every time I try to download an app from the Store, I'm presented with the following error message:
<app name> could not be downloaded due to an error. (Error retrieving information from server. [RPC:S-7:AEC-7 3YGA-G3G7-CV0FK]) This happens with either purchased or free apps, and with both new or ones that are already installed on my phone.
I've been trying to research the issue. XDA even has a guide on play store errors and have found recommendations for error messages similar (not identical) to mine, but none of what I have found has helped me.
Here is what I have tried so far
-Cleared app store, download manager, play services and services framework cache and data on my phone.
-Uninstalled and reinstalled the play store app on my phone.
-Removed and re-created my account on Settings -> Account on my phone.
-Factory reseted my phone.
I will appreciate any advice you can give me regarding the matter.
Best regards.
tl;dr version: <app name> could not be downloaded due to an error. (Error retrieving information from server. [RPC:S-7:AEC-7 3YGA-G3G7-CV0FK]) when trying to get stuff from the play store app on my phone. Tried all of the above.
Hi, I have had similar issues to what you describe. I have found that Google Play seems to throw an error whenever I try to download an app using a Google account that isn't registered to Google Plus (Google +). I would suggest signing up for Google + (even though you may never actually use the social network) and try downloading the app again.
Alternatively, you could sign in using a different account already signed up to Google + and try downloading the app.
Another thing you should make sure is that your Google Play Services are up to date.
If you are using an older Android version, the app may simply not be supported on that version of Android (in which case, you may want to look into installing the latest update from your manufacturer or flashing a custom rom of the newest version possible for your device)
Let us know if signing up for Google + does anything.
Good luck,

OK, I'm ecstatic! First of all, thank you for your reply.
Although I didn't have much hopes of joining G+ to be the solution, it turned out it worked to fix the problem as per your advice. After hours of struggling, you save me from more aggravation. Thank you, thank you. I am truly grateful.

I'm glad I could help, you're welcome
Tried clearing data/cache for Play Store apps, flushing the hosts file to just 127.0.0.1 localhost, and tried connecting to G+. G+ is giving a can't connect to the server error. I may just have to go back to MoDaCo Gr9.2 and forget about rooted 6.3.3. At least Play worked on MoDaCo last time I used it.
Has anyone come across this problem and/or have a possible solution? When trying to access websites that come up in the Google app search, the app closes and goes back to my home screen. This problem only happens when trying to open pages and not just searching for key words. I've uninstalled updates and cleared data for chrome and Google app but still no joy.
Hi , do you have custom rom instaled on your device and did you tried to update Google Play services ?
