Not sure what's going on though. Last time i used this was 30 May. I've checked the hosts file, and nothing is on there that should prevent this.
All other apps can browse the web without any issues, just the Play Store. I updated it to 4.8.20 latest, but still the same.
Can't get my SWapps updated because of this...
Any thoughts, anyone?

I don't know why google play store wants to crash all of the sudden as it worked fine yesterday and I haven't done anything that would upset it.
I've checked if the app "downloads" was disabled which is was not.
I've cleared cache and all that stuff to no avail.
I've deleted my google account on the phone.
I've uninstalled play store, rebooted, downloaded the newest apk and installed it
I thought maybe it was the new 4.4.21 update that broke it but after installing an older 4.3.10 and still no fix I don't think that's the issue.
I've been doing lots and lots of reboots after several of the above mentioned tries.
I'm using a modded ROM and I'm rooted as well if that's important.
I've deleted some stuff in the root folder with X-Plorer as well but that was way before this happened, maybe two weeks ago?
I've also got SD Maid installed and am using it rather frequently, maybe it deleted something that was needed in the root folder?
BTW, in some apps, a pop up appears with something about that it's unable to communicate with android market. I don't recall I ever had that installed?
I'm at a loss here and I'm about to go crazy or something and I really want it to work.
Try installing it as system app and see if it works.
Ever since the last WatchESPN update 2.0.0.0 which was in NOVEMBER - when I try to watch something on my TFP, I choose my provider and then it dims the screen but never brings up the login page. I emailed their support in NOVEMBER and I got a reply that they were aware of the problem and were working on it. Needless to say nothing has happened. Anyway, it works fine on my GS4, does anyone know the file which stores your provider login credentials that I can copy to my other device or a file that can be modified on the TFP that would make it work? I have root on both devices - I tried copying the data\data\air.watchespn folder from the GS4 to the TFP but no success.

I had the exact same issue on my Prime. Emailed ESPN support. They responded. Their solution was to delete the app that I had downloaded from the Google Play store, and install the one from the Amazon App store. Stupid...but it worked. I just checked, and the version that I downloaded from Amazon is v 2.0.0.0

Did you do an update after you downloaded? I just checked Amazon and it is listed as 1.6.6.1 so I downloaded it just to make sure they had it listed correctly. It is, in fact, 1.6.6.1, which does work on my prime. I went into my app updates and there isn't an update for this app on the Amazon appstore.

I'm trying to think back on what I did. I uploaded the app from Amazon...and it worked. Shortly after that I decided to root and install CM 10.2 (4.3.1). When I re-loaded apps from the Play Store, WatchESPN worked.

Interesting. When I unlocked and flashed HairyBean about 2 months ago I updated to 2.0.0.0 through Play store and it worked. I made Ti backup of it, but, having battery drain issues with the rom and had to reflash. After that 2.0.0.0 won't work anymore. Just about every other app saves your credentials and still works after an update without having to login again - except this one!

Maybe a stupid question...but did you re-install from the Play Store, or did you restore via Titanium Backup? In my case i re-installed from the Play Store. No backups restored via TB. I used it as an opportunity to clear my Prime of all the crap that had built up over the years, and only download the apps that I use.

I have a copy of the 1.6.6.1 apk that I found online somewhere and installed it directly. I then updated it through the Play store. I opened the app, clicked on a program, selected my provider, the nonfunctional provider login page popped up for a second or two then disappeared and went into the chosen program. Never actually had to type in my user/pass, that's why I'm thinking it is stored somewhere in 1.6.6.1 that could be copied over to 2.0.0.0 or maybe a databases editor would allow you to modify the appropriate file.
Found an interesting "fix" that worked for me if there are any users out there with persistent problems.
I installed the app through google play store, espn support told me to use the amazon version which was 1.6.6.1. I uninstalled and went to reinstall from amazon, but, amazon still thought the app was present on my tablet, even after a reboot. I reinstalled from play store and went to amazon to uninstall there, but, wouldn't let me. It would let me open the app from amazon and much to my surprise, when I chose an event and my provider, the provider login page worked and displayed correctly!!! To tempt fate, I uninstalled and reinstalled from google play store - would not display login page correctly if I opened app directly or through play store. Opened with amazon appstore and it worked correctly again.
Had this problem with stock rom and HairyBean 2.3.1 - have since switched to NRG for battery drain issues, but, WatchESPN worked correctly from initial attempt, FWIW.
"Fix" for version 2.2.1
OK, I have a workaround for this that's working...but my post keeps getting flagged! I've contacted 2 admins and have not got a response. I've been trying for 3 days to post the exact steps!
I've posted it to other sites so just google it.

Hey. My name is Sadcamp. I'm not really acquainted with how everyone here forums and all, but I'll give this my best shot.
Recently, I was working on fixing my Play Store, because of an app that blocked some of Google Service IP's, disabling my ability to access the store. So, using Root Uninstaller, I removed the Play Store app off of my phone, which as many of you know, removes the Play Store from /system/app. Hoping for it to be fixed, I got an APK of the most recent version and installed it on my phone. To my distaste, nope. I investigated further and journeyed to the mystical file called "hosts". I researched and found that the Google IP's were blocked. So, as recommended, I renamed the hosts file and restarted the device, clearing it all up.
Then, about an hour ago when I went to install an app from the Play Store, it stopped working (at the point where you press Ok/Yes to accept permissions and all). So, I whipped out CatLog, which I recommend if you ever have a problem with your phone, and saw that the phone was giving out messages like "Google Play APK file not found" and stuff of the such. After tracing some of my steps back, I figured this was because, as mentioned in the last paragraph, that I removed the Play Store from /system/app. That being said, I whipped out Lucky Patcher, commanded it to move my Play Store app to /system/app, rebooted my phone, and voila. Just as it had been before all of this crazy stuff had happened.
So, All in all, (TL;DR)
If your Play Store app won't download or update anything, and closes upon opening, consult CatLog, or you could just skip to what I did by using Lucky Patcher and moving the Play Store app to /system/app.
Hope this helped for those who have these kinds of problems. Love your faces!
I've had netflix on my tablet for several months with no issues. Went to go use it the other day and says I need to update to the latest version. I go to play store and it says this app is not compatible with this device now. I have tried to find netflix on galaxy apps store but it's not there either. Tried several versions I found online but they will not connect to netflix server for some reason. Has anyone else run into the same issue?

I have been having the same issue. I thought it was because I had twrp, root and xposed on my tablet. the issue bothered me enough that i actually reset my tablet to stock to make sure there was no trace of the mods left. and for some reason, Netflix is still incompatible with my device... no idea whats going on.
Haven't ran into this issue yet, i did on Nexus 9 but that's because i was root. Go to apkmirror.com its ran by the guy who created android police, you can download the app there and install it. I have the Play Store version and im subscribed to the beta program and all is working fine, but i had to use apkmirror before to get it.

Hello, I've got EMUI 10 a month ago, but in the last couple of days, I have a strange issue with the play store. When I try searching for anything I could previously install from play store (facebook, twitter,Viber,Instagram), the search won't return any results... I have tried clearing data and cache for play store and play services, re-adding google account, nothing helped. I have even contacted google support through play store chat platform, and after trying a few steps, they advised me to contact the device manufacturer...
Did anybody else experienced the same issue, could it be fixed somehow?
Couple of possibilities, do you have data access via sim or wifi and is it working. Have you updated play store and Google services? Have you applied customizations? Have you restricted play store access to power and data. What did you do on device before you noticed the glitch?
I've been on 10 for awhile and no isues after updating.

Everything is stock and updated, no restrictions... Nothing was done to the device when this started, that is the main reason I am asking if maybe something is broken in EMUI 10 and Play store compatibility
