I recently rooted my Samsung Galaxy Music Duos GT-S6012 and found that i was able to update my apps from play store for a month(i access the net almost everyday)even though i was aware of a counter or something that tells the store of my phone's user status.Recently i found that there were no more updates.Is there a way to get updates from the store again?Or will unrooting do any good?Or is there any good app store out there which could serve as a perfect replacement for the store?

Try 1mobile market as it is the best alternative. Apk leecher is also helpful. And Also you can restore to the past google play store by uninstalling the updates to the app,backup the past play store using backup apps before updating so that u can get back the past one very easily by restoring them

Hey guys,
I just bought my note today after wanting it for some time.
question, my Samsung apps app won't open. All it does is go directly to google play. It says the application needs an update. But when I try updating google market tells me the app isn't available for my carrier. (att).
What's going on here? I'm trying to download some note specific apps. Like zen brush with pressure sensitivity.
What are some good drawing apps. And is there any way to calibrate the pen?
Thanks everyone

Not sure about the Samsung apps. can you uninstall then re install? I heard one way that might help the pen is to change the dominant hand to ur non dominant then back to your dominant. I haven't tried it. Try Monkey Write...you can learn Chinese.

I saw the monkey Chinese app. But not really interested in learning. Maybe I'll dl later for fun.
Samsung apps can't be uninstalled seems like it's bloatware. But I'm still interested in the free s pen apps it's offering. It has zen brush optimized for the note

When you pull up "My Apps" in the Play store menu, does it show Samsung Apps as being installed? When you then click on it what options does it give you? Open/Uninstall? Open/Upgrade?
If there is an upgrade it should be available from there.
Many of the stock apps can be updated but require manually searching for each one, tapping on the app, then tapping the install / update button. Note that once an app is manually updated, you no longer need to search manually to update them in the future, they will show up as 'Installed' under My Apps. Alternatively, if you have Titanium Backup (requires root), you can link all the apps on your phone to the market which will allow all of these apps listed below to be listed under the 'My Apps' in the Playstore (which will allow you to tap 'Update All' button instead of manually searching one by one for each).
Stock apps that can be manually updated:
Adobe Flash Player
AT&T Navigator: GPS navigation
Featured Apps (Phone)
Gmail
Google Play Books
Google Play Music
Google Search
Kies Air
(Google) Maps
Media Hub-ATT 4G Smartphones
S Memo
Samsung Apps
Street View on Google Maps
Talkback
(Google) Voice Search
Youtube
YP Yellow Pages & Gas Prices
Try updating Samsung Apps and Featured Apps first.
Also, you might need to delete your Google account information (Accounts under Settings and long press on your account) and then re-add your account information (which can be done in the same screen OR by launching the market and you will then be prompted to re-enter your account information).
Oh, maybe also try clearing the data for the market (settings->Applications, 'All' button at the top, scroll to market and tap it, force stop, clear cache, clear data) and restart the market. The market does receive over the air updates automatically from Google and if the market on your phone isnt current, it could cause wonky issues. The way I usually force an update is to first clear the market data, launch the market and wait for it to fully load. Check the version number. If it isnt current, reboot and relaunch the market. Repeat rebooting and relaunching the market until its current (worst case scenario it took me 3-4 reboots).
Current version of the market is 3.5.16 (for the AT&T Note on STOCK firmware - it will be different depending on your phone model and Android version so if you have another phone or a different OS aside from the stock Gingerbread rom, it may not match this version number) and you can check this by opening the market, tap the menu button, hit settings, and scroll all the way to the bottom.
If all else fails, try a factory reset. Its a new phone so you shouldnt have much to backup before you do so (Settings->Privacy). This will require you to re-update the market (see above). Im almost positive any previously updated stock apps will have to be re-updated as well.
And, I should have probably asked this at the top, the Note you bought, did you buy it at the AT&T store or is it an unlocked Note you bought somewhere else?
Im running saurom and i also cant download samsung apps or note optimized apps such as zen brush or omnisketch. I have tried clearing play store data but still nothing. It keeps saying your device is not compatible
Okay well can't clear any Samsung apps data from application manager.
Google play is latest version. Samsung apps isn't under my installed apps. When I search for it I get an open or update option. When I update get the same error saying not available on your carrier.
When I open it. Get an error message saying not able to connect to market for update.
I'm attaching the screen I get in Samsung apps.
Phone isn't rooted yet. And wouldn't like to do a reset.
Does anyone have an Apk for Samsung apps or for the Samsung s pen enabled zen brush or omni sketch?

I was able to update s memo by searching in the store and updating when I found it. Same way I tried with Samsung apps except it worked and no error.
Still not able to do anything with Samsung apps. seems to be an issue multiple people are having. For some reason changing the dpi with a rooted app fixes google play issues.
Any insight?

I got samsung apps working by restoring the backup i had from the stock rom. It opens and works on saurom now, however it doesnt show in my apps on the market/play store. Also when i go into samsung apps and look at s pen apps such as omnisketch, zen brush, comic book.. etc and when i click install on them it takes me to the play store where it says my device is incompatible?? How do i fix this ? Any help would be appreciated.
I also have tit backup how could I use that to make Samsung apps to show up in my apps in the market

Okay guys well I have a fix.
All I had to do was uninstall the update for google play in application manager.
So then play turned back into the market. Logged into the market looked up and downloaded Samsung apps no problem then updated google play.
Seems like there's a dpi issue with google pay. That's why there's an app that changes dpi (root required) that also fixes google play issues.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
That's good you got your Samsung apps working. My dpi is stock its 320. My Samsung apps started working but the apps inside dint work if you get what I'm saying. Like when I click on some apps to download them it says my device is incompatible. Has this happened to you? I think it's a dpi issue in the play store but my dpi is stock and I even un installed store data but it still doesn't work. Do you have a fix for this?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
Did you try what was suggested? Open Settings->Applications->Manage Applications->'ALL' Tab at the top->Market->Uninstall Updates.
Then relaunch the market and let it update.
There are occasionally issues with the market not converting to the Play store as well, for this, you need to remove your account and re-add it (Settings->Accounts->Long Press on your account->Remove Account. After removing your account, reboot and in re-open the market and you'll be prompted for that information.

Open TB and tap the menu button, Im not 100% sure where it is but you are looking for Market Doctor (I think its under tools or more, like the lower right option in the menu that comes up). Tap that and there will be a dialog for what type of apps you want to link to the market. Tap the System+User apps option.
Yes ive done those steps. I have tried removing my account and reinstalling it as well as clearing play store data. Everything works except its the same as last time some apps dont install from samsung apps and they are the spen optimized apps, it still says device incompatible and when i just try searching in the play store they dont even show up.
Okay so I used titanium backup market doctor to link my Samsung apps to the store because it wasn't showing up before. I linked it and a notification came up successfully saying it was linked but when I looked in the play store it wasn't linked and it didn't show up. When I search for Samsung apps in play store it doesn't show up and when I google to get a link to play store it says the device is incompatible (same thing happens with apps like zen brush and omni Sketch). I also checked my dpi it is stock and hasn't changed.

Best drawing app

Has pressure sensitivity.. worth the price.
Under ICS pressure does not work though, but works perfect on stock / GB roms.

So i kept doing the wipe data uninstall google play and like on the 6th time opening the app ( i couldnt find it on the market/play store) it prompted me to do an update and it started installing and i checked automatically update. After it was done it finally worked however i still dont see it on my installed apps in the play store? Is this a problem? Should i worry that it doesnt show up?
I rooted my nook tablet 8gb couple months ago. Now I noticed that all google play and etc stop working.
How could I fix it?
Did your device update? Check the version.
If it did, you likely lost root access as well as the functionality of any system apps that are not part of stock (google play qualifies here).

I have the same problem but the installed applications are still there.
This might be the scenario, since Android Market comes with the Rom it was overwritten by Google Play
I have used google play once but now its not there anymore. how do you put it back? Anyone?

I just figured it out,
go to the browser and
find google play,
then try to log-in.
you will be redirected on google play fullscreen view
Perhaps reflashing gapps would help in this case?
I'm sorry if this has already been posted.. I have a very strange problem. My phone was not used for more than a year (not even turned on). Yesterday I decided to use my phone. Everything was working fine but there was a strange problem in Play store. There are very few apps in the app store, I cannot find most of the apps and games in the Play store. I deleted then added the google account, manually updated the play store to 3.10.10, but that didn't solve my problem. I'm running CyanogenMod - 7.2.0-RC1-olympus. Can anybody help me??

How is that possible? I apparently can't install AdGuard without it.
That's because samsung takes out support for some devices even when they update the apps, it's the same case of samsung music, u can see the app in play store but u can't download simply cuz samsung dont want old devices to get it.
Note that I only have one Google account on the device
I bought a brand new sealed Samsung Galaxy Tab S3. I setup the device for the first time and went straight to updating to Marshmallow which then allowed me to finally update to Oreo. So then I tried to install an app that I already paid for. But it said I didn't pay for it (says $3.99 instead of INSTALL). So I thought that maybe it's from a fishy developer who makes their apps temporary free (P.AG.F.) and pulled the rug from under me. But then I noticed all of my paid apps are UNPAID. So then I decided to go for a legit developer who I was confident is a good developer (Nova Launcher Prime), and even on the Play Store page it said I have to pay money for it even though I already purchased it on my Google account. Even when I click on "Purchased Apps" the apps show as purchased, but as soon as I go to the app's page, it show as unpaid.
So I decided to maybe factory reset the device. Nope. The problem persisted. I checked for an OS update past Android 8.0.0. There was no update. So then I decided to lookup an APK mirror for Google Play Services (using Play Services Info), and I downloaded the correct app for my device (architecture and dpi). I installed the latest Play Services. But in Play Services info it shows that my newly installed App is still the old version from 2016. On Play Services Info it says I need to install the 2018 version (obviously I tried to). It didn't do anything. Still did not work
I am wondering if I got a botched update of Oreo. What do I do? I am out ideas at this point. Man what the heck???
EDIT: Play Services version 12.6.88 (also the updated OS install this version)

I'm sure it's not the device. Check to make sure you have the latest version of play store. You can do that using the three bar menu in play store and going to settings.

Also, make sure you are not in your "Secure Folder" when running play store. It will not access your account properly and will force you to pay for everything again.
Can you access Play store from a computer? Do you still see the apps you paid for?
Otherwise, I'd contact Google Support and see what is wrong with your account.

Oh man what the heck. What do I do? My device won't let me downgrade. Oh man. I am screwed. Edit: Yes everything is fine on all of my devices. Including Android emulators. I turned on the "use secure folder" during factory setup. But when I click on Secure Folder it tells me I need to sign in to my Samsung account in order to use it. So I am not even sure if Secure Folder is the issue. Cause it wont even let me into the app unless I sign up. Play Services is 12.6.8 no downgrade allowed. Play Store is 10.2.06 ???

You're not screwed. How did you get Oreo on your device? There isn't a US version so I'm assuming you used Odin. If so did you use the UK version. You're right, you won't be able to down grade to nugat but I'm on Oreo, in the US, and it's working fine.

Nope. I read news today that Samsung Tab S3 in the US are rolling out Oreo updates. I got excited and I was like oh what a coincidence because that day was the same day I decided to open up my brand new Samsung Galaxy Tab S3 from the sealed retail packaging. So like I really didn't do much. No tweaks. No strange configuration or app installations. I literally went through Android settings and installed the updates through the official "search for update" method. Note that the update service found the Marshmallow update and forced me to install it before I would be able to find the Oreo update.
No Odin. No flashing. No rooting. No Adb. Nothing nada. EDIT: It's possible I bought a NON-US version of Tab S3, but I don't see how that is relevant because that version of Tab S3 should have Play Store bugs ironed out by now.

The US version of Oreo isn't available for Odin flash yet, otherwise I'd give it a try and see if it's an issue with the firmware. But I don't think even Samsung would have messed up play store. If it was just released it may be available later today.

Man. Wtf why does this always happen to me with Google? Like in YouTube, my old playlists show up on my PC Chrome Browser. But they don't even exist in the YouTube app (only the new playlists appear). And on YouTube, there is exactly ONE youtuber that I can't toggle notification for, and that is Marquez Brownlee. But if I made another YouTube account I can toggle on the notification (the ringing bell symbol) for this YouTuber just fine.
NOBODY has these issue except me. Why?

Oh I meant that I can't downgrade Play Services, as in I can't install an older version of Play Services.
Another Picture shows the Play Store works fine on other devices. Also here is video of Marquez Brownlee notification problem if you don't believe me. Problem has existed for years already and still hasn't been fixed.
Edit: Second video is portrait because I'm taking it with the Tab S3 with a heavy armored Gumdrop case and can't hold it in landscape (small hand and body) while using the mouse. Don't have tripod either and I was trying to obscure private information.
It isn't that we don't believe you. We do. But there is something wrong with your Google account. If it was me I would factory reset the device and go through the re-install of the Google Account. Somehow Android is not getting updated with your Google Account info so either it is a connectivity issue with Google or something with the install process.

SOLVED.
You have to turn off that option during initial "factory" setup. I couldn't turn it off because I didn't have or don't remember my Samsung Account. You need the Samsung Account in order to go past the login screen for "Secure Folder". As far as I know, there is no way to turn off secure folder after it is turned on without a Samsung Account. Deactivating/disabling the Secure Folder app also did not work. I fixed it by factory resetting the device and making sure that the initial toggle for Secure Folder is set to "OFF" (I think the reset is a necessary prerequisite). It looks like the issue is poor software design. Being required to have an account to turn if off, while being able to turn it on without the account is just a terrible choice in design. User aspexil, you have been thanked.

Glad you got it solved. That might be something new with Oreo. I didn't have that problem when I first got my tab. Ever since it's been rooted and I've never had a Samsung account. Or maybe I turned it off when initially setting up the tab.

UNSOLVED.
Actually it's unsolved again. I typed down Nova Launcher in the search box to check if I have it "paid". And it showed up as paid. But now I realized that I was looking for Nova Launcher Prime. Damn it. I guess I need to flash my Tab S3 to a reliable ROM then?

When you factory reset did it reset to Android v7.1? Maybe just stop there and see if you can get the tablet to work before applying Android v8.0? I haven't used anything but stock so don't know what ROM to use.

Nope. When I factory reset. It reset to Android Oreo 8.0.0. Play Services installed was 12.6.85 (instead of 12.6.88, I think I actually installed 12.6.88 manually via sideloading). The play store version is the same 10.2.06.
So I am wondering which ROM provided online is legitimately unchanged and STOCK so I can just flash via Odin. Then install the Oreo update via WiFi (I am assuming I received a corrupted update that won't happen again).
Also, one guy told me from another thread that he had the same issue and said he just waited a few days and let Play Services "sync" and it just fixed itself automatically. Although, I don't know if he really does have the same problem.

I'm pretty sure you will not be able to install nougut firmware after installing Oreo. The bootloader for Oreo is new and Samsung usually trips an e-fuse when updating the bootloader. But you can give it a try and then letting the device update. I get firmware from updato. But be advised that Oreo for the us isn't available yet (nougut is there). The UK version works fine, though. That's what I'm on.
PS, you'll have to enable developer options and then oem unlock to use Odin.
