Alright so basically everything I'm about to say will make me look like an idiot. I've poked around on my phone removing a bunch of stuff it looked like I didn't need with some of it being recommended to not be removed and one day I couldn't connect to the google play store because it said check your connection and try again with a retry button and hitting retry would just bring the profile panel out from the side. So I installed the alternative App Store Aptoide and everything was fine because I didn't need the play store. i think I may have used lucky patcher the first time I screwed up the play store and tried to install clean versions now that I think of it. But now no google app whatsoever works including stuff like snapchat that says I need to update google play services in order to continue and then it takes me to my broken play store. I've tried to uninstall updates and reinstall the google apps to no avail. Please help! I'm slowly losing functionality of my phone

Your best bet will be to reflash a stock rom for your device. Also Aptoide and lucky patcher are warez apps and not allowed to be talked about on the site. Either one of those could easily have had some malware embeded into the apks.
Word of advice. Unless you know what your doing dont go deleting things.
Thanks, sorry I didn't know about those apps. Roughly how much will I lose by flashing a stock rom?

You will most likely be starting from a clean set up so back up everything you need like pictures and such.
Also this is probably also not allowed but where can I get a stock rom since I never backed mine up ? I know I'm stupid

Look in the forums for your device. A simple Google search for stock rom (device name) should get you what you need.

Here is the file. Be sure to click on old market when you have it open, if you don't like it click on new market. Pretty straight forward. HOWEVER.

The above posts both provide a workaround/partial solution. Here is my suggestion...
If you choose to try Old Market, when you launch it you can choose "old" or "new" market. It requires root permissions to work. After selecting which Market you would like, it will reboot the device and, once it is booted, the market you chose will be installed. Take note that I did in fact still see some free apps that weren't installed, but not all of them. Perhaps they were only the apps that were downloaded to this specific device/ROM.
That said, the "old" Market is indeed the very old V2 Market. I went back to "new" Market (V3), and it upgraded itself back to Google Play after a little while.
Unless you truly like the old interface of the Market, I'd recommend you go with CosmicDan's suggestion of logging in to Google Wallet and viewing your transaction history. This will give you a list of only the apps you have purchased. Unfortunately you can not install them to your device from there, but at least you can see only the apps you have purchased without seeing every app you have ever downloaded.
--- Original Post ---
Is there a way to view only one's purchased apps in the new Play Store? The new interface for the My Apps section does not seem to have a way to do this like it used to, instead showing seemingly every app one has ever downloaded, with purchased apps mixed in (in no logical order).

Big time bump on this! They really do need to add a tab that shows purchased not just installed and history.
Just ran across this. Hope there is a fix in the works. Not being able to sort the apps is a major FAIL.
I let my son have my old droid and he went crazy downloading what looks like every free app offered....my mistake for not creating a junk gmail account. Now I have literally hundreds and hundreds of apps listed in my app section of the play store.
Bump, I would like to know also
It appears that even the app management section of the Google Play website doesn't have this capability. On the positive side, the site looks great! -_-
This is just wrong, when you've bought allot of apps and downloaded plenty of free apps.
There's got to be an easier way to see what you've bought and redownload!
Someone got a clue?

This is such a fkn annoying issue. BUMP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The other thing is there should be a tab to multi select app installs so you aren't directed to the install screen and forced to start from the beginning of the main screen after you go back. If that is not an option at least add the ability to install "ALL" paid apps.
Why in the hell would we not get the option to see purchased apps only but we get the option to see "ALL" downloaded apps paid or unpaid. That's just fkn ridiculous
P.S. To anyone that is going to tell me to roll back or move previous apk versions to system/app or even use an app to do it for you and blah blah blah. I have tried everything.
The closest I got was using the apk I will attach for everyone here. Be sure to unzip it and move the file to your phone and use a file explorer to install it.

so I should be able to choose which market I want to use on the fly when I install this apk?
This has got to be one of google's biggest recent FAILS.
It's been like this for over a month now, and what seems like a very simple and basic fix hasn't even arrived yet. Do you all think they are even aware of this being an issue for us?

Not likely any time soon in my opinion. I'm quite positive that they knowingly made the decision to change (read remove) the list of only paid apps in the Play Store, in an effort to "improve" the app. Unfortunately.
.— Powered by Nexus —.
Another Google Fail just like the crappy resolution contact pictures that they refuse to fix. Thanks google for making have to make duplicate phone contacts and link everything. Also thank you for getting rid of showing only the paid apps.
Google has always been a piece of.. garbage, but as of late, they have just been, a piece of... junk..
Well, I do not think Google forgot to have that view. From their point of view it absolutely makes sense:
If you forget about an app you bought some day, you might end up buying another one, providing the same functionality later. And that is where they get money from, not you re-installing an already bought app.
It does not go too well with the "don't be evil" motto, but this was clearly a deliberate choice by Google.

I was aware of that, but it does not launch. Instead it immediately upgrades to Play Store as well.

The r2 works fine for me. I've put it to /system/app … I had to delete the app data to make it run again after a reboot, though.
So following a tutorial by Android Cowboy, I got some Google apps to work (except youtube). Unfortunately, messages will come up saying "google service frameworks has stopped working", or process.gapps.something has stopped working". How do I stop these from showing up? They are quite annoying.
I found the easiest way to get this working was to backup the same apps from my phone, galaxy nexus, using titanium backup and then restoring them to the kindle hdx. This does require root though. But this got my google services all working and as long as I don't try to download anything from the play store then I can search the site just fine.
Just remember to immediately turn off auto updates in the play store and stop any updates that have already tried to start.

His HDX is rooted, so after installing SafeStrap (a recovery program), he flashed the gapps.
I would do anything to get rid of these error messages. Does rooting accomplish this? I am hesitant to root because all I really want is google apps working flawlessly and I don't want to risk the root process (scared of losing warranty and bricking).
Right now you can't get both Amazon and Google working together. People are working on that.
If you want Google, you have to rid all of Amazon stuff (or enough of it so it doesn't interfere w/ Google stuff).
Remember, you can always load up factory image, which would essentially unroot your device, and voila, good for returns.

I'm not rooted. I just got my HDX, so I don't won't to screw it up straight out of the box by doing something wrong with rooting. I guess I'll just wait for someone to say something that doesn't include rooting.

Sounds like a bad app or...
Are you using xposed? That's still causing people problems. Look in xposed issues for fixes.
Are you rooted? And did you downgrade to root?
Any other mods you've done?
To many questions to really help out. But more than likely, your questions have already been asked and answered in this forum.
Just a thought also upgrade your Google Play Services.

I cant upgrade any apps or do anything it seems. I cant upgrade google play services without the play store and i cant get new apps without it either. Its like my device is soft bricked

I would go into settings>apps and see if you can uninstall any upgrades to play store or Google play services. You can actually uninstall all those apps and go on the web browser and download Google pay store to start fresh and then load apps.
You mentioned Titbu which leads me to believe you may have restored versions of the apps which may be outdated and don't work well with lollipop or restored corrupted data.

Thats the funny and dare i say evil thing about this i can go to the playstore online but when i try to install apps NOTHING HAPPENS no app downloading screen nothing nada. I made the titanium backup immedietly after rooting on lollipop. As far as i can tell i cant do anything more. I have unstalled updates to both services and run force stop on both of them still nothing.
I just force stopped and uninstalled updated on google play store and services still nothing. :/
Try wiping data on those apps also you tube uninstall that completely.
Edfunkycold
Have a great day!
How do i go about doing that? Sorry for asking so many questions. When it comest to android Im a total noob at best
Since you said you have titanium backup it's even easier go into Titbu find the App listed under the back up and restore tab. Click on the App then click on wipe data you can actually click to uninstall also within titbu.
Edfunkycold
Have a great day!
So just go to uninstall then restore? Im just making sure since its a system app and i dont want to ruin my phone
Yeah they install them as system apps but you can remove them. Just start with wiping data not uninstalling. Them reboot the phone. If that does not work then uninstall and then re download them starting with play store. Once that's running using play store download the others. One at a time.
Edfunkycold
Have a great day!
Ok im doing that now ill let you know how it goes
Tb has been hung on the restore screen for about 10 minutes now should i just let it keep going???
You should not restore from titbu you should have downloaded a fresh app and installed it starting with the Google play store. But go ahead and reboot the phone.
Edfunkycold
Have a great day!
Tb is still hung on restoring the google play store its been over 2 hours now :/
I said reboot the phone...

Just did it installed my old back up but no luck is there anywhere i can just download the apk and install manually???
Got a no mark S4 clone on 4.2, perfectly happy with it, got CWM and a new rom on it, its fine.
I have exposed and boot manager and once a day it has its icon telling me 'google play services' has auto installed, and every other day an app called 'recents' with a sort of C:\ terminal icon. Now, neither of these I want, I've deleted them so, SO many times, selected 'dont auto update' and also 'dont notify' from within google play, set my firewall to block anything google when on 4g etc...
Is there ANY way to stop it installing stuff I dont need?

The only way is to build a new aosp rom for your device. My advise is remember that you get what you pay for and clones never really have any of the hardware they claim they do. I think you will find you are better off ditching the device and buying a new one.

That doesnt actually help me at all.
The phone is fine, no issue with it. Has a new rom on it, specs were as described, its a problem with google, and the play store auto installing, it did this on my old S2 and my galaxy tab stock, so its not the hardware.
There must be a way to stop the play store doing this apart from uninstalling the play store as I am currently doing.

Then that will lead me to think it is one of the apps you have installed. Some shady apps like CCleaner will install other apps. I would wipe the device completely and then install your apps one by one until you find the issue.

Well I am about to smash my phone to bits lol so I'm hoping for a bit of help. Had my le max 2 for over a year and its been ok, it automatically updated not long ago and since then nothing GOOGLE works, playstore wont load, always get the Play services stopped working popping up every 3 mins or so. I have deleted them and downloaded the apk's a million times and it does the same thing over and over. Also some other apps just do not work now.
On top of that I have the other 2 home screens that is all adverts and in another language I'm guessing Chinese, My calendar is also messed up with all extra Chinese writing in it and other bits, I also get advert bars at the bottom when I open certain things.
I now can not even install facebook or anything else as the google playstore does not work I have tried other app stores you can download that have all the apps on and they don't really work either and a lot say they need google play services to work so I get that popping up.
I have no idea about rooting phones, installing customs roms or anything although I have checked videos and I'm still no further what to install or do.
I just want google play to work again so I can have things as I did before
any ideas at all please? if I cant sort it I think I'm just going to go back to samsung
just installed all the google stuff using google installer V2 all seemed to go ok but still says google services stopped , managed to install facebook another way but it says the facebook app is not compatable with my device so the phone is stopping facebook from working :/

Are you referring to the stock rom 028S? I don't think it is fully compatible with Google Services. After many re-installations, I gave up on it and installed Resurrection Remix 5.8.5 Nougat and never looked back. It frees up tons of memory too.
