Yesterday Google Play (com.android.vending) stopped working. It consquently crashed everytime I loaded it.
I restarted the tablet and Google Play was completely gone. All dependent apps (Google+, Gmail, etc) and apps that rely on Google Play for billing either stop working or have issues. I cannot install any apps now that Google Play is gone.
I updated the tablet to the latest firmware (I had the original 4.3 on there from around the beginning of the year) now I just updated to 10.4.B.0.109 to see if that helped but it did not.
(My Samsung phone has successfully updated Google Play the other to a new version 4.9.13 with a significantly different look and feel so I expect Google has rolled out a big update that has broken my tablet)
Has anyone else experienced this?
Same as me , my google play version 4.9.13, everytime i tap the menu from left-top button, it will crash.

Thanks letting me know.
Have you restarted your tablet yet since Google Play updated? It was crashing for me and was when I rebooted hat it completely disappeared.
Actually, i try clear cache and restart, still same result.
And i did factory reset, because it is a development machine, but no luck.
So it may be bug of this version.
The model is LG L9 P760
Strange. Works perfectly on my end (Tablet Z, .230, KK).

I faced with this bug. You have to revert to 4.8.20 and then install 4.9.13 as ordinary apk, reboot and it will work as promised.

Hi everybody
I have been reading this forum many times but no luck in finding the solution.
I have bought my self a POV Protab2XXl last week with Android 4.0
But since the market was updated to Google play i only have problems.
There are many apps i suddenly can not find anymore ( like facebook ) or some apps i try to install i get the message "your device isn't compatible with this item"
I have tried many things based on the forum. I have changed the density, but that one is set to 160 which is ok and other density does not help either.
Did clear cache and everything else you can do to remove old data, but without luck.
Yesterday i reflashed it to android 2.3 and updated to new market. all problem is gone.. What changed in 4.0 and the new google play that the market behaves like this ??
Anybody else having these issues?
I am having lots of problems with Google Play this morning. On the Web side I can not see my rooted Kindle Fire. On the KF side I cannot install any apps.
I just got off the phone with Google Tech support. His suggestion was to roll back to Market since people are having problems with rooted devices and Play.
Is anyone else experiencing problems with a rooted KF and the Google Play app store? Any suggestions?
EDIT: I unselected my KF under devices on the Play web site and then I was able to install an app from the KF. WTF?
My Google Play Store stopped working yesterday after the newest Asus Transformer Prime update. It worked before, now I'm getting lots of server errors & connection timeouts.
Same here, almost seems as if someone DoS the servers...
I do not think this is directly relevant to an update, more like an infrastructure problem at Google's servers

I'm also having FCs all the time when I start downloading an app since yesterday (ver. 3.5.15). If I clear data and cache in app preferences, I can start the play store again - but still not download possible. The app crashes also when I try to install an app from the web interface.
SOLVED for me:
- I moved com.android.vending.apk from data/app to system/app,
- booted into recovery,
- cleared cache and dalvik cache,
- booted and everything works now.

Hi I got a Brand new Samsung Galaxy Mini 2, great device, everything is perfect only problem I got is that when I'm in Google Play and want to look at the screenshots of an app, and swipe between them the device freezes, then vibrates and sends me back to Google Play, sometimes it gives me an error message, I have done like 3 factory resets but it doesn't fix it, any recommendations?
Thank You
Someone?
What version of Google Play are you on ? Have you tried Re-loading Google Play ?

I'm on the latest, which is 3.9.16. I have noticed that if the screenshots on google play are in landscape, there is no problem switching between them (eg. Nova), and if I hold the device sideways, I can switch between the screens even if they are portrait screenshots with no problem, wondering if there es a problem with the screen size, everything in any other app is perfect, I tried viewing pictures on the IMDB app and works perfect is just when clicking the images on google play.
thanks.
OK, the problem is related to google play 3.9.16, I know because in manage applicationd I uninstalled google play updates so it went to a previous version, and it works perfect, the problem is that it updates by itself back to 3.9.16 and the problem comes back. any ideas? maybe a way to stop it from updating?
Thanks

You can use Titanium Backup to keep it form Updating. Or you can go into Menu - Settings - Applications - Manage applications - Market Updater. Then Force Stop it from there. But I think you might also just want to try the latest version of the Play Store. You can find it v3.9.17 HERE. The article has the Download links, and info on what's new.
Hello wise members of XDA,
This problem has been a tumulus week of trial and error to no avail.
About a week ago (approx. the time when the new web Google Play redesign went live), I've started having problems with my Play Store.
I wanted to open my play store, but it immediately crashed.
I'm on an international Samsung GT-I9100 (GalaxyS2), and this problem is not phone specific, because it occurs on a friend HTC Desire, and a Galaxy Note, and also a pair of Galaxy S Duos.
1. My phone was initially rooted, and I also had Market Enabler Installed. I thought that may be the problem, so I reverted the Market Enabler changes, but still crashed.
2. I went into applications and cleared the cache and data for the Play Store app, it again crashed.
3. Cleared cache and data for play store app, google framework services app, and everything with google in its name or connected to google, and it crashed again.
4. Did the same thing as no. 3, and then restarted the phone, and it crashed again.
5. Did a factory reset, and it crashed.
6. Reinstalled my Galaxy S2 Stock OS, but instead of just crashing, now the phone freezes and reboot is required.
7. Wiped everything on the usb storage and the other storage, and installed Stock OS, and it crashed again.
8. Rooted that brand new os install, and it crashed again.
9. Installed the new Play Store App (4.2.3) and it crashed again.
10. Downgraded Play Store app, and nothing, crashed again.
11. Is there anything left to try?
The problem is, when entering the play store it crashes. If somehow I open the play store so that the landing page of the play store is avoided, it works (e.g. If I google search for an app, and open the play.google.com link on my phone, and when it prompts me to open it via Play Store, then it is opened via play store). Then I can go into 'My Apps', but the 'installed' tab shows nothing, whereas the 'all' tab, shows the history of my installed and unistalled apps.
This problem is with 2 of my GalaxyS2, 2 Galaxy S Duos, Galaxy Note (N7000), and my friend's HTC Desire (running 4.2).
For any ideas, please chime in, I'm willing to try anything.
Currently I'm on stock 4.1.2 and rooted with Philz kernel.
Totally same for me i tried all above too but i think this problem will be common wide for all.
Pls a solution

Just found out another guy with a ZTE has this problem as well. I'm starting to think that this may be a regional problem.
Bump!
Anyone else experiencing this, or is it just one specific country?
Crash problem Solved
Ok, after going through the browser and updating the Google+ app, that initiated the Google Play Services update, which in turn fixed the Google Play Store crash problem.
Now the problem is the same as everyone else that is not living in the US. Getting geographical restricted apps.
For our country, there are NO apps at all.
Market Enabler, Market Unlocker Pro, and HotspotShield do not work. Anyone else have any ideas?
I just received mine, and got 2 major issues :
- cannot open Youtube, gmail etc... cause Google Play services needs to be updated... And when I'm trying to update them, play store crash.
I've try to remove play store update, factory reset the tablet, but no solution
Look this video that show the problem
https://www.dropbox.com/s/ki7d2u891pa2p0n/cube.mp4?dl=0
- when the keyboard is plugged, and when the screen is locked, the tablet constantly wakeup... I don't have this issue with keyboard removed
Thanks for your help !
Solved the issue by updating manually the Play store and update manually the google play services (installed 10.0.84 (230-137749526) )
Only the screen lock with keyboard issue is rest
Another update, the play store crash everytime.. I've reset the app preferences, delete put again my google account etc...
Any imporvments =(
any idea ?
It recently was working, but I decided to update my EUI to the latest version as my camera was having some issues, then I realised that all my Google play services were replaced with Huawei's own apps which are really sh**. My dad's phone which is a P30 is working fine and Google play is on there and it is in the latest version of the EUI. 'Google play services' is still there but it isn't actually working or anything, my apps which were downloaded from Google play store is still working fine but I can't actually download or update any of them. Youtube and all that snazz is working until it requires an update which will kill me internally.

Just download and install Play store from apkmirror.
Contact Huawei or reset phone. This sounds like a weird bug.
