Hi everyone, Just wanted to post this as I have found it to be useful for me.
I am sure some of you have seen this issue before or are experiencing it now. I have included a link to the youtube video.
what is the issue?
Recently after downloading the newest play store I started seeing an error message about unfortunately the process gapps has stopped working .
this was happening whenever i tried to add an account and when opening some of my apps including the browser and play store
.
it was annoying me but it would go away and the app would immediately open for me after so it was not that big of a problem.
I tried to solve the problem first by uninstalling updates to the play store in application manager
,
then by flashing roms and factory resetting
, however this did not help at all.
l
. finally last night at work my phone had three random reboots . my phone has never done that before
. I searched on google and found a very easy fix and once again my phone is like new
.
the fix.
settings/ application manager/scroll to left until you reach the all applications screen/ touch menu screen left of the home button/ reset app preferences.
here is the youtube link

it sometimes work, even uninstalling the updates and reinstalling works but is random
Thanks
What does kill us, it hurts
I am having this problem right now. Except not only am I getting that error I am getting mutlple services that have stopped as well as background apps.
I have tried everything except a factory re-boot. I haven been on the phone with Verizon and Motorola Level 2 tech support and no one could help me.
I'm at my wits end. I don't want to reset the phone because i have a lot of pics that are not backed up.
Additionally it seems that a phone reset is not a guarantee...
This worked for me. Thank you!
Thanks

.Cheers Bloke that worked a treat.
Sadly not working on my note 2 syncing google account.
Whilst trying to sync the two calendars from the note (4.1.2) to my Nexus 10 (4.4). Nexus is sending out and note is receiving (also to pc) but nothing is being released from the note
As well as above I have seen a "fix" being disable - re enable download manager in apps. Also a no go.
I've been seeing this pop up on odd occasions during the last month or so but not caused an issue with the activity at that time.
Cheers in advance

google play download issue
Hi everyone,
I had the same issue like you. I have Samsung galaxy note 2. But I tried your advice about reseting app preferences and it worked. But I have another problem. The Google Play app works but I can't download any apps. It looks like the app is downloading but it's not. Have you any ideas about this problem? Thank you! Diana.

Clicking the Reset App Preferences in Application Manager/All helped. Thank you for this!
Had the same issue and just found this thread. I just cleared the data and cache for Google Account Manager only under the application manager and it worked. Thanks.

This seems to have worked. I went into accounts and removed the Google account...then added again.
Worked for me. Thank you
None of these worked for me. I tried cleaning the cache etc as mentioned and removing the google account but nothing. I've restarted, powered down and pulled the battery but nothing has changed, I still get the gapps message along with play store, gmail, hangouts etc.
I'm running stock 4.3 on a rooted I9305 S3. Everything was fine until I tried a bit of a cleanup with Android Tuner Pro's quick optimization and clean p. After the restart the pop ups came and then it had a progress bar saying - linking to sd - which sat at 0% and never moved. I'd selected optimize apps loading, database access, fix permissions, clean memory and updated system apps, trim all partitions and clear caches.
Any suggestions? I had massive problems trying to install 4.3 when my titanium backup messed up some settings and I had to do another full factory wipe and manually install ALL my apps and settings, taking around 4-6 hours!
I wish I'd stuck to System Tuner Pro and hadn't touched the new version

try this step:
On your Note, goto Settings. Choose Applications. Tap on the All Tab at the top. Locate and tap on the Play Store app. Tap on the Clear Data button. Tap on the OK button to confirm. Tap Clear Cache too
Then if you can see com.google.process.gapps in there, tap it and Clear Data and Cache too. Ignore it if you can't find this process there
Then find and tap the Google Services Framework and Clear Data and Clear Cache. Then restart your Note. Do the same for Browser, Download Manager etc again
Thanks, it worked for me
Thanks a lot dear, after too many trials finally your advice worked. you saved my day.
error message "process com.google.process.gapps, has stopped"
I have tried several methods from different forums/blogs, but all failed to remove this message, which appears repeatedly on my device Galaxy Tab 10.1 (GT-P7500) whenever I start browsing on the native browser or the Chrome & not otherwise. There are so many people crying on almost all android related forums for help but nobody from Google/Android owners or even the device manufacturers are speaking up to console these crying people who bought these devices due android fame. If these attitudes continue, I think the Android will vanish as the Symbian in the past. For myself, having found no solution, I have decided to live with it until the device gets a System Update next!
However, if anybody has found a solution, he may plz tell me, too!
Randomly today, I keep getting persistent popups that say Google Play services has stopped and another one involving com.google something about location I believe.
I have not touched my phone hardly at all today, haven't installed anything or changed any settings etc. Have tried rebooting phone, to no avail. Any help? Thanks
I think there was a update to google play services taking it to version 5 in the past day or two, maybe you got a dodgy update or it is conflicting with another app. Maybe try clearing data for play services then reboot the phone.
Thanks for the reply. Tried that to no avail. This is maddening.

Same thing happens to me as well, i can't figure out the cause. the other one is com.google.something.location.service
I am also getting this randomly since the latest Play services update 2-3 days back, mostly for the Dash app.
I been having Google+ force close even if cache and data clear
Having exact same problems. It also removes your Gmail account in back up and reset in settings. Only thing I did to make it stop was uninstall the update and reboot and won't update until google fixs the problem, idiots! I don't understand why they haven't pulled the update or updated the update by now.
Mine pops up every 2-3 seconds. I can't even make calls or text without wanting to throw my Z2 into the East River. Hopefully it will be fixed soon.
Hello people!
I've been through alot of solutions and i still couldn't fix it. Hence this thread.
An hour ago i started my regular update run, updating 6 apps. After updating the first app, play store force closed. This didn't happen to me for ages, so i thought let's start by clearing the cache of download manager and google play store. This didn't work, so i tried uninstalling the updates. and rebooting the phone.
At this point play store worked again, so i tried updating another app. But after this updating, the fc was back. So i repeated the cache clearing and found somewhere that if i did that with google framework, play would probably come back. But it didn't.
So after this i rebooted again and started google play. And it started. But now things got worse. Google play gives me a no connection retry since then. Even after clearing dalvik and rebooting again.
So i guess my question is clear. How do i get play working again on my phone?
Thanks in advance for answering!
P.s. I also found a solution which said to remove and add the google account, but on my xperia z1 with 4.4.4 i can't seem to find that option?
Good day everyone first post here and really seeking some help to a headache i'm facing. I know it's long but please bare with me.
What is happening
So this all started when i was frustrated that i only have 80Mb of internal storage on my phone and every time i need to update whatsapp i need to uninstall it and install it again. I looked up some things i can do and what i found was SD maid and it worked really well, it removed junk files and log files to the point where i had 800Mb open i was smiling bright haha, i reinstalled whatsapp with no problem.....a little bit later my phone starts to vibrate every 10 seconds and then 3 seconds later another and this has been going on for the last day. I uninstalled whatsapp thinking that it may have caused this to happen in some way and then i noticed that it's not the cause, my phone is still vibrating and lagging so i checked my running apps and saw that google play services had two services, one running fine and then i noticed that the other one is restarting every 10 seconds, so every time my phone vibrates it restarts.
My setup
Samsung pocket android 2.3.6
Rooted
What i have tried:
First thing i did was cleared Play store and services cash and data and i also did the framework.
It didn't work so i uninstalled play store to factory default and uninstalled services as well, so then installed the latest version from apkmirror.
I also installed a older version just to make sure it's not the latest version that's having this problem.
Things i noticed
The service that get's restarted each time is: com.google.data.gms.persistence and when it's running it's name is google fit.
When i installed whatsapp again just to have it while my phone vibrates like this, i could not finish the install because i needed to authenticate my google drive ownership and it fails to do so because i think the service that handles the syncing is the one that's restarting
I do not know what to do about it because i have tired what i can think of, so if anyone has any idea what i can do i would incredibly appreciate it
Does anyone have any idea to what i can do? the only thing that i can think of is to reset the phone and that would suck
Hey all so after a whole day of trying to fix my phone i finally think i got it working.
So what i did was backup my phone's data and the factory reset my phone.....it was fine for a bit but when i needed to install google play services the problem came back, i downloaded it from the play store so there was no problem with that. So what fixed it for me was installing a much older version of the play services app (latest version is something like: 9.4.xx and the one i installed was 8.3.01) The older version does not make my phone vibrate and also my play store runs faster now as well.
At the end of the day i didn't need to factory reset my phone i just needed to install a much older play services. Hope this helps someone else in the future have a awesome day.
Can someone confirm if he is able to update the chrome application on stock miui with bootloader locked, actually i can't.
Strange but every other app is getting updated other than chrome, clicking on update button does nothing.
I am unlcoked,rooted and stock 10.0.8 and still able to get chrome updates. Try force stop google play and lear cache. If still fails, clear data of play store and relogin

Don't you think i would have tried all that, i even tried after factory reset but same thing.
It's happening on poco x2 as well, and tomorrow all of the sudden the app got updated after stucking at waiting for download.
But I'm sure next time it will again stuck on update as it has happened before, i just want to know internally why this bug arises..
Use chrome dev or beta.... chorme having issues on PlayStore clashing with other chrome available with same google developer
It'll take nearly 2 month to fix it(limited employees). Got reply from google support
