Google Apps Crashing - Xiaomi Redmi 3 Questions & Answers

Hi,
Yesterday I suddenly started getting some 'Google Play services has stopped' messages but not too bad.
But now pretty much every Google app I open quickly crashes followed by the Google Play services crash.
I'm using CM12.1 with OpenGapps and have been for a while without any problems whatsoever.
Has there been a recent update to Google Play services or something that might problems?
Anyone know how to fix it?!
Cheers!

So it looks like I've fixed my problem with a full wipe and flash.
Still a bit strange since it happened out of the blue after using my phone without any issues for weeks...
At least it's back to normal now though.

Any news on the Google services battery drain

As I understand the battery drain issue is only fixed by disable the WiFi location. That being said I have tried all the other proposed solutions. The play store now being officially 4.3.1 I see no difference in the Google services drain. Any word on when a fix is coming?

Not sure what your issue is but I have all my services enabled and play store 4.3.10, Google services is only pulling 1.2%. You might need to do a factory reset
I've done a factory reset. Hence the frustration. Not only that. I now getting drain even without WiFi services on. Confused at this point.

I'm seeing massive drain from this service also. No clue what's causing it. A reset seemed to make things better, but pretty soon it was back at the top (under display) of my battery drainers. There's a lot of complaining about this on other boards. No clue what to do about it. Every solution seems to be a shot in the dark that works for some and not for others.
Google is fully aware of this issue. I'm optimistic in thinking this will be resolved sooner then later :/

FWIW Every phone that I own is plagued with this issue.
Chgrapp are
I had this issue. Uninstalling maps with titanium and reinstall from play store w/o enabling network services seemed to work for me. hehe Well until I get lost again...
I've had this issue several times. For me. I cleared data on both the play store and services. Uninstall updates on services. Rebooted. Signed back into play store let services update reinstall and all was well. Had to do this on stock, RSL7 and BeanStalk. For me, worked every time. For maps I clear data, uninstall updates. Reboot. Reinstall new version from play store. And all was well. I leave all location services on all the time. It doesn't even register after 16 hours on battery. good luck.

This has happened to me as well. I think I started after Google Play was updated to version 4.3.11.
I have like 120 apps installed. The "Installed" tab under "My apps" now says I've got 9: Barcode Scanner, GTasks Key, K-9 Mail, Official XBMC Remote, Pure Calendar, Pure Grid Calendar, Soundhound, Superuser and USSD/MMI Fix. If I flip to the "All" tab, all my apps are still there. From there I can view information about the apps, but those that are not among those 9 will say that they're not compatible with my device.
My device is a rooted HTC Desire Z (called G2/Vision in North America), with some "EliteMod" 4.0.4 ROM - which have been working perfectly for well over a year. I was thinking it was some kind of Apple-style scam by Google to force users of old, rooted devices to upgrade.. xD
When trying (and failing) to figure out how to tell a living person at Google that 90 % of my installed apps and probably 99 % of the apps in Play Store are missing, I discovered the following added comment here:
"We’ve heard of some users suddenly missing apps under the My Apps section of the Google Play Store app. This is a known issue that we are currently investigating, and updates can be found on our Known Issues page."
I found no updates on it on the "Known issues" page, though.
I have the same problem
Hey guys,
I have the same problem after updating Play Store to 4.3.11. My installed apps went missing, I am not able to search for any apps on Play Store, app in all apps tab arent available in my country anymore (all these apps were available in my country before the update) play.google.com does not show my device, well its really frustrating. I wonder when google will fix this problem. I guess its something to do with their framework services.

I've fixed it today, I'm not exactly sure how, as I tried a dozen different things I read online. Including uninstalling Adfree, removing hosts-file, clearing app-data for some Google Service-apps, flashing gapps one more time, etc.
But what I did just before it started working again, was to remove my Google account (the one used on Play Store, you can remove it from "Accounts/Synchronization" under Settings), restart the device, and then re-add the account again (in "Accounts/Synchronization"-settings). Then everything became as perfect as it was.

Thanks trollsperm. I will try that today. BTW, I have observed one more thing. The playstore works just fine after a new flash on Wi-Fi, but it goes back to the no working state as soon as I switch from Wi-Fi to Mobile Network. Have you encountered that?
I have tried your suggestion of deleting the account and re-add the account. This was the outcome
1.The play store started working fine and app sync was flawless. This was on Wi-Fi
2. I switched to the mobile internet and the play store worked fine until I rebooted the phone. The play store stopped working and apps were missing after the reboot with the mobile network on.
3. I then cleared the play store cache and data and switched on WiFi. Opened play store and voila the play store worked normally.
4. I did the same process on the mobile network but it didn't work out.
I guess the Google location services are kinda screwed up on the mobile network and not on WiFi.

Then I'm afraid your issue is different than mine. For me, the result have always been the same, whether or not I'm on Wifi or mobile. I can now browse Play Store both on Wifi and mobile, and rebooting changes nothing.
When I experienced the issue of "empty" Play Store, the Wifi-connection icon in the upper right corner were always gray (instead of blue) - something that's usually only happening if I'm connected to a wireless network, but the router isn't connected to the actual internet.
My conclusion is inconclusive, I'm just happy that it's back to normal..
Hi guys,
I'm facing the exact same problem as rahulananda.
In my case, the play store running on my Galaxy S4 and also on my notebook, is empty - searchs returns nothing and whey I access directly an app page, it says the app is not available in my country (Brazil).
For me, play store works fine over when mobile data (4G) is enabled, it doesn't work at all on wifi.
I also have a Galaxy S3 which is working perfectly on wifi and also mobile data.
It doesn't seem to be related to play store version, as in all my devices it is currently on version 4.3.11 - besides it is also not working on my laptop.
But, indeed, this is an issue to determine the location - for some reason, over my wifi, and rahulananda's mobile data, Play Store is unable to determine the country.
I found this on Google's Known issues: support.google.com/googleplay/known-issues/1319135?hl=en reffer to issue 8324410.
Hope they fix this soon, this is driving me crazy!!!
Let me know if you find a solution!
Its a simple fix as long as you have root.If you do look at this:
1. Navigate to the Build.prop
2. Find these 2 lines:
Code:
ro.build.description=
ro.build.fingerprint=
3. Delete everything in front of the "=" sign
4. Download a custom rom for another device that has great compatibility with apps(htc one, sgs4)
5. Copy those lines from its build.prop to yours
6. Reboot and Enjoy your market:good:
Well, my problem has been solved after applying the latest CM10 nightly update.

[Q] Google Play Error 927.. DRIVING ME NUTS

Hi Guys
This issue has been going on for 4 months now, i can rarely download or update an app on the play store because it gives me error 927. Only the odd update or install will work and this happens over both Wifi and Celluar
I have several android devices, 2013 Nexus 7, SGS4, Optimus G Pro, Xperia Z Tablet, Note 1 and the same happens on every single device. If i use a different account after resetting the phone i dont have the issue but the problem is i have purchased £100's of applications on my normal account so i cant afford to use another one.
I have tried wiping caches,factory resets and nothing seems to work. I contacted google and they dont have any idea either!!
I was hoping someone here had a similar issue?
Thanks
I've had a similar error occur for me. Whenever I install/update an app where on WiFi or Mobile Network it would send off and error.
It was a constant annoyance for me.
It stopped when I did this, I headed into Manage Apps>All Apps, and opened Google Play Store, cleared data and cache. And did the same to Google Play Services, I proceeded by rebooting the device next thing I know, my phone starts updating apps .
I hope this'll work for you.

Doesnt make no difference on mine
Hello!
Contact Google, it is their right to investigate this problem, if you've payed that much money for apps, one certainly wouldn't move to another account, tell them about this problem.
Cake...
Yeah they suggested I use another account or wipe the cache. I've tried contacting on 3 different occasions. Each one has been a waste of time

Worst support at its best, try going into play store, clear the data for store and service, and go back to play store and go on uninstall updates.

Just so people are aware, this is still happening, I'm writing this today because things were going ok for a while, but, the play store got updated again, to 4.6.17. It happens on my Nexus 5, HTC Evo 4 G, & galaxy tab 8.9, it happens on different versions of play store. If I create new account, play store works great. I contacted Google as well, basically got pissed cause they were completely useless. Right from beginning I was honest, & told them I was rooted. They basically blamed it on that. Anyways, Google play suck$

Yeah it still happens to me too. Exactly the same issue as your having but only on my main account.
If I keep pressing install it will eventually work but sometimes it takes around 20 attempts.. Google gave me no support either

If you're rooted go into system>etc and look for hosts.
Open it and delete exert line except the "local" one the local one will also contain numbers in the line. Do not delete them.
Restart your device, and try.

Google play services has stopped.

Yesterday my phone starting giving me a google play services has stopped pop up. Seems to happen when I change from WiFi to cell network or vice versa. Its not a one time pop up either....it happens 5 to 6 times in a row. Occasionally need a reboot to make it stop....and after the reboot it still comes up once or twice

Mine started that yesterday too, but only when i restart the phone. A symbol also popped up on the notification bar that looked like a sim card with a question mark in it. Had to do a battery pull to make that go away.
im on sprint, and mine did the same thing yesterday evening. i get 2-3 pop ups immediately after reboot and then another 2-3 within 2 minutes of the reboot.
Yup me too. Says location services has stopped a few times then Google play services has stopped a few times. Happened randomly yesterday and the syncing icon was stuck in the status bar. The error messages pop up a few times after reboot as well but then don't see them again. Just a minute ago had the phone start locking up real bad and was lagging like crazy. Rebooted and it started up and after about 20 seconds it rebooted again on it's own. Back to normal for now *knock on wood* but that's the first "problem" I've had with this phone. Think Google pushed an update that our G3's do not like.
I was thinking the same thing.... Google play services must have had an update pushed out and it's not playing nice for us. I didn't read anything about a play update though.

I've had the SIM with question mark since day 1. Think it's because not on Verizon. My Google play store stopped working until I restored. This happened about a week ago though.

Add me to the list. Both Google Play Services and Google Location Services are going screwy ever since about 10am PST.
It's starting to become unusable. I'm ready to go back to my Loki'd S4 and give this thing a factory reset. It's popped up 3 times just typing this message..... 4 now

I had location consent module for x posed and Google play store fixes module. I deleted both and so far no more pop ups.

Same here. Deleted the location consent module from xposed and all was good.
*If I have helped you please hit the thanks ?*
Apparently there was an update to Google Play Services from what I've been reading on Nexus forums and it hasn't played nice with certain apps...
- Tapatalked from the G3 -
That worked for me. I deleted that location concent module and haven't had a notification since.
Ever since the play services update on the 23rd, and including with all of the more recent updates, I continuously get play services has stopped errors and can not use google location services at all. These issues continue even after several factory wipes. After each wipe, the issue returns as soon as play services is updated and if for any reason the phone restarts, it gets stuck in a bootloop. Has anyone else experienced anything like this? Any tips that might help?

Have you used the LG Flash Tool to reflash the .TOT? If not I would try that. If there was some kind of system change you made the factory reset would only do so much. Such as when my build.prop got borked before it was known the build.prop for the G3 was too big to open on (most) mobile text editors a factory reset didn't help me and had to use the flash tool. Factory reset is the equivalent of wiping data and cache so if the error messages persist, and especially if your bootlooping, try the flash tool and .TOT.
I have actually been trying to use the flash tool to do just that, but can not seem to get the phone to go into download mode. Is it possible that only the cable that came with the phone will work for that? I have been trying using one that came with my old d2vzw.

I've actually had similar problems since Play Services updated, yesterday no matter what I tried to do I couldn't get the Play Store to connect. . and I tried all sorts of things trust me.
Only thing that fixed it for me was doing a factory reset, which obviously Sux but that's what did it. Hopefully you get it going!

Ok, so I think I've figured this out.
I'm on a T-Mobile note 3 running darthstalker 7,
I started getting this pop up about a week or 2 ago. Initially it would only happen upon enabling or disabling GPS.
Once I started trouble shooting it started happening much more frequently, and began to include a pop-up about location services.
I used titanium to roll back to a previous version of google play services and it seemed to stop. Then it auto updated and here come the pop ups.
I took a previous poster's advice and disabled the location confirmation module in xposed.
Then I restored an older version of google play services from titanium back up.
I let it auto update, upon update I got a notification [with the triangle exclamation point icon] about the service needing my permission.
Once I clicked the notification, yet another pop-up, but this one was different. It was Google play services asking for permission to allow apps access to my location. The interesting bit is that there was a check box for "do not ask me this again" which I checked.
Since I did this, no more force closes on Google play services or location.
Hoping someone else can confirm this works for them.
Hope this helps, hit thanks of it does.

Google App preventing app installs for anyone else?

Ever since I upgraded my Moto Z Play to Oreo 8.0 I've had issues with notifications coming in up to an hour late and apps downloading to 100% but not installing. I have to close out the app store and reopen for the downloaded app to install.
Tried cache wipes, app caches wipes, factory resets and it works for a little bit but goes back to not installing apps and notification delays.
The only thing that seems to work is disabling the Google app. Only issue with that is I need the Google app to use Android Auto in my car.
Can't find any answers on what the problem is and the latest Google App update from Aug 20 still doesn't solve the issues.
Anyone else experience this?
