So I'm having issues with the Play Store. It keeps force closing when I try to launch it. I've rooted my device, installed Superuser SU and updated it as well. However, when I try to launch the Play Store or even update my apps, it keeps crashing. I've tried clearing cache/data and force stopped it with a reboot. It still does it. I've tried uninstalling the updates and rebooting, still happening. I even downloaded the updated APK for the store and it will open but then if an app tries to update, it'll close.
I even went so far and did a factory reset and it still does it.
It kind of sucks because I'd like to be able to download apps, etc.
Any clue/ideas what I can do?
I'm using LG L70 from MetroPCS

I tried deleting it using ES File Explorer but it says it can't delete it.

first you have to mount r/w . you can find this option under menu under root explorer option . and mount r/w and then delete the app and you need to be rooted for that

I can't seem to side load this app. It side loads on my phone just fine but the app didn't come on my phone like it comes pre-loaded on our tabs. I tried installing via adb and root explorer. If anyone figures it out, please share.

I just rooted my Viper today, i deleted some bloatware, & now my Google Play Store isn't really working properly. It force closes!
I deleted Sprint ID, Google Wallet, Google Maps, Tags, Nascar, basically all the pointless apps that came with the phone..... Just uninstalled the actual apps, none of the foreground processes. The play store opens, shows my apps, but when I click to view the app, I get "THE APPLICATION GOOGLE PLAY STORE (PROCESS COM. ANDROID.VENDING) HAS STOPPED UNEXPECTEDLY. PLEASE TRY AGAIN" I've tried to uninstall & re-install the play store, but still get the same message.
Does anyone know how I could fix this problem???
Also, if i factory reset, will this affect my root or brick the phone? Did i loose the apps & their processes permanently?
Update your profile and prl. I had the same problem until I updated mine.
Or simpler, clear cache. That will probably solve it.
Work case, install the latest GAPPS from Cyanogenmod, the last one for ICS is dated 20120429 or something.
No factory reset will not affect you root it will just delete super user app..your root is still there
It will not brick you phone too..
You can try to change language of your device than start play store this may help sometime
we should polite enough to press thanks for everyone helped uS..
you are dead when you stop learning new things..
I'll try the gapps install..... everything else has failed me.
So none worked.....
I dont have a custom recovery, so installing GAPPS was basically a no go for me. I tried using ES File explorer, nope! I just unrooted the phone & going to take my chances at the sprint repair center. Since SU isnt on anymore, I should be fine right??

Tried getting rid of some bloatware however i obviously deleted something important as now on play store i constantly get Server error on open. Have tried the usual fix's on here of uninstalling clearing data re installing etc all to know avail.
So i tried doing a factory reset however it did not install anything i had removed, I then tried downgrading which didn't work either, so in short have i lost google play forever, does anyone have a base JB i can use to re install everything.
Please help been tinkering for hours now to no avail.

You don't say if you are unlocked and have a recovery?
Doing a factory reset will not bring back deleted apps as it only wipes the cache etc.
Re installing should have brought them apps back but I don't know how you are tying to re install.. Can you give a little bit more information on what I have asked please.

You will not be able to just install it. You will have to copy it into system/app folder using a file manager that has root support like es file explorer or root explorer.
Here is the file from the new JB update.

Copy the one I posted above into the system/app folder and give it permission rw-r--r-- and then restart the tablet to let it create the cache file.. See if that works.

I'm really not sure what you deleted all together but try this.
GO to settings-apps and go to "all"
Scroll down to Google play services and google play store and force stop both and clear data and cache for both.

Any reason why you can't unlock the device and install a recovery so you can install custom roms? or are you trying to keep your warranty intact ?
I'm also not sure why you can't just do part 3 of the instructions you followed in the original post to put jellybean back on again. ( then again you have edited so many files this might not be advisable.)

As you said i am trying to keep warranty in place at the moment, i thought that following section three would work as well as i only accidentally changed the files from the system when i had installed but every time i have tried it doesnt reinstall the apks that were removed.
Device: Samsung SCH-i509
Android Ver: 2.3.6
Rooeted: Yes
Internal Memory: 160MB
Ext memory: 2GB microSD partitioned as: 1st Partition: 1455MB FAT, Second Partition: 515 EXT2 (I am using Link2SD for linking apps to SD card)
Superuser App: SuperSU
Rom Management: RomToolBox lite
I rooted my phone about a fortnight ago, first time rooting, things went fine, and apps were responsive.
2 days back I not only uninstalled the Google Play Store updates but also uninstalled the app, hoping I would install the latest google store APK from Android Police ( Ver: com.android.vending-4.8.22.apk )
I am new to rooting and installing apks, so after installing the above mentioned Google Play Store apk to the SD card and finding it was not responsive (I was getting a blank screen and an error message shortly thereafter which disappeared instantaneously for me to note what it said). I googled and found on a forum, (sorry don't recall which one) that the APK needs to be copied to the system/app folder and any previous apk of Google Play Store needs to be replaced. So using Root Browser in ROMToolBox I copied the apk to system/app.
Doing so did open the 'first run' of Google Play Store, as in I was prompted to allow permission via google account and opened the interface with my apps etc normally. But trouble started when I tried to update the apps. The moment I do that, I get the downloading bar AND then I get the force close screen. The same would happen in the case if I try to download any apps.
I froze the Google Play Store app through ROMToolBox App Manager.
On doing a search on XDA forums before I posted here I came across: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2129881
And did as suggested in this thread: went to the system/app folder through Root Browser and set permission to rw-r--r-- as suggested there.
UNFORTUNATELY things are the same as before: once the app fires up either by clicking on a Google Play Store linked ad or by just opening it, I am back to force close screen.
I would be really thankful if someone could help me out on this.
Also, I am not quite sure how much it makes a difference I was using Link2SD to link all user apps to SD card (I uninstalled this app as well hoping to install the latest version)
You rebooted after changing the apk permissions, right? Also perhaps try force stopping the plays store, wiping the app data then reboot.
Thanks

Thanks for the reply. I had rebooted and clear app data but the app was still unresponsive/
The issue resolved when I downloaded an older version of the Google Play Store app and installed it in the sys/app folder after removing the previous one, reconfigured the permissions and rebooted. things are working fine now.
Cheers, have a great weekend!
Both display 'has stopped' / 'keeps stopping' errors. I don't know what to do! I've removed the app data, uninstalled and reinstalled the play store, but nothing seems to work. I can't use my phone properly anymore as I can't download or update ANYTHING!
I broke it. What do I do to fix it?
I'd prefer not factory resetting, as there's a lot on here I'd like to keep and I don't have a current backup. Titanium backup refuses to run also.

Try to go in to Recovery menu and do just "Wipe Cache Partition" , I think that your phone has a problem with launcher .
First download Magisk v20.4.
Then install it via twrp.
Download aptoide to computer.
Run adb install <your file directory> in cmd （or powershell and add .\ before adb）.
At last open aptoide and turn on update for system apps,install beta apps and root installation. It will request root access.Grant the root access to it.Done.You can install any app on aptoide.If not on aptoide send the apk to me and I will upload it.
