Google Play Store bad manifest - Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II

Since about Monday, when I try to update several applications in the Google Play Store, I receive the error message "Package file has a bad manifest" when it tries to install the update. I have never seen this message before. Can someone advise on how to fix this error?

Very much a +1 here
This appeared randomly a few days ago and applies to some installed apps and also to new apps such as San Andreas.
Very frustrating.. If anyone could help us it would be greatly appreciated.

I would suggest you to go to applications and uninstall Google play updates... Later Google play will auto install to the latest version

Already tried that a few times and the same issue

Yeah I ended up restoring an nandroid.
Quite annoying... Hope it doesn't happen again

I'm having this problem too. Been researching it and other people experiencing it have bad internet connections, and I just tested my connection too and it's terrible so must be caused by corruption. Gonna try again on a better connection.

Google Play "Missing Apps" Issue (AGAIN!)

Hello,
My problem is identical to the one show here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1377514
Basically, when you go to "My Apps" in google play, it just says "Applications and Games owned by this account will appear here."
I am unable to download previously purchased apps.
I have tried ALL the solutions on that thread to no avail.
It happened after I upgraded my Rom to a newer version (hydrogenics 23/03 to 25/03) but I doubt it is ROM related, since flashing back to the backup of my 23/03 rom does not resolve the problem.
My Google Play app is on the latest version (3.5.15) which is supposed to solve this issue.
I am really desperate and at a loss. Anyone can help?
I would be super super grateful for any form of help.
No one can help?

I just opened the market, switched the tabs and watched some apps, then i rebooted and it was done... I could see my Apps in the market.
Maybe it help you, but i don't think so

[Q] Apps won't download when started from playstore website

Hi all,
I have googled, searched and even called Google themselves but I cannot start a download from my desktop browser and have it install on my phone.
Phone does nothing at all, sits there pretending I haven't asked it to do anything.
The app will appear in My Apps in the play store and I can download and install from the device directly.
I've followed the guidelines on Google website, signing out of talk etc but still no luck.
I did manage to make it work by going back to stock, then flashing SuperNexus but within four days it's broken again.
Does anyone have any ideas what may be causing this and how to resolve it?
Try using a different Google account to setup the phone then sign in on the Web

Remove the Google account from the phone, reboot and log in again.
Thanks for the tips but still no joy.
Google refuse to help because I'm rooted!
So when you open play store, it doesn't start automatically?

I sometimes have the same problem. Toggling WiFi or data off then back on seems to do the trick usually.

Nope, sits there doing nothing as if I haven't touched a thing.
The Badger, that somehow managed to sort it! I can't believe such a simple toggle can fix a problem that I've been struggling to sort for a week!
You have my sincerest thanks!!
You're welcome. Glad it helped.

How do I Detach app from market

Hi,
I detach an app from the market using Titanium backup pro, but after a few hours, Google play still attaches it.
Is it possible to rename the app or maybe a string somewhere such that it will still launch but Google play won't recognise it?
Thanks.

Why would you want that ?
Is this to avoid licence verification checks? If so I don't think you will get much help here.

What is the app i can check in google play settings for you .

The upgrade to the app is a downgrade to me.that's why.
I already know how to avoid license verification checks, but I prefer to buy my apps and support the developer. I'm a successful business man and know the importance of having your products paid for, and not going for free.

Play store remove auto updates .

Its an annoying problem this. Titanium can break market links but they always re-appear. Its annoying because the spp always appears in the "update all" list so you either have to update all then quickly cancel for the one app, or don't use update all.
Its an annoying oversight from Google. I've been hoping they address this properly for years.

[Q] Play Store

Is anyone else having problems with Google Play this morning? I can't get it to refresh/load whatsoever on either wifi or mobile. And the new Maps gives me a no connection error.

The Play Store is working fine here, try rebooting the phone and wiping the Play Store's cache.

Have you tired signing out of and signing back into your Google account and then accessing the Play Store?
