I am having a problem with google chrome not working properly. Sometimes I write something on the search bar and when I hit the search button it freezes. Doesn't do anything. Then I need to close the chrome and again restart it. I tried with uninstall and reinstall and by clearing the browsing and cache memory of the browser. But still no luck. Can anyone help me with it?

Having same issue......
I've also had the same issue, started a couple of months ago. Doesn't happen everytime but consistent enough that it's affecting my use. With all the issues Huawei's been having with the US, is it unreasonable that I think Google's doing it on purpose? Regardless, it's really making me dislike Google at the moment. The phone is phenomenal and I refuse to believe it's an issue on Huawei's end.

I don't think that google is doing it on purpose, I believe it's just a software issue at this time.

To start off, I have searched for a solution to this problem on here, and I have found nothing about it. I apologize if this thread exists (I have searched for it) and if it does, then please point me in the right direction. Thanks. As for the problem, every time I try to open the Google Play store it closes right way. This did not happen before receiving the Jelly bean update. I was wondering if any of you have encountered a similar problem. If so, have you found a way to fix it? Additional information: Stock jelly bean, unrooted

Unfortunately, I have tried that and it did not work. Basically it at least pulled up the play store page for a second then immediately crashed, instead of crashing right away. Still crashed though

Had Google play crashes myself after my navigation/maps was crashing too...now that its a known fact about navigation having issues I've just waited patiently for that particular fix....I seemed to have gotten lucky and don't have Google play crashing for last 2 days by:
A. Not using navigation til fix os found
B. Wiping 3x and reinstalling stock rooted chubbz jellybean rom.
Don't know if it has direct corrolation to navigation issue buts at least kept Google play from crashing for me since. Hope that helps.

I'll try to keep this brief.
My wife and I both have stock standard HTC Aria's running Android 2.2. A few days ago my wife complained that her battery was discharging really fast. Then a day later mine started doing the same thing.Going flat in a few hours of standby. Normally at the end of the day they would both still have 8 out or ten bars still lit. I turned off wifi, mobile and bluetooth on both phones and that seemed to fix the battery problem.
Now when I turn on wifi or 3g I cant connect at all. My wifi router shows up in settings but it constantly is scanning-connecting-disconnecting. Also cant connect to 3g.
I have tried another sim card but the problem is the same.
As I said, these phone aren't rooted in any way. Have very few apps. Basically used as a phone.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Maybe you can try a new battery. Or, if you still have warranty, give it back to service.

You can try a factory reset as a last resort

Thanks dansou but the problem is not the battery. I believe the power was draining because an app was trying , constantly, to access the wifi which will not connect.

Just did a factory reset and everything seems ok.
Just one other problem: When I log in to google play it is showing that I have 2 apps installed (airdroid and astro) These are no longer on my phone but google doesn't want to believe that. I've tried to trash them and tried installing them but nothing happens. It just says "These apps will be un/installed shortly"
Any thoughts?
Thanks

You may have already tried this, but maybe a reboot would do the trick. If rebooting doesn't help, you can use a file manager to take a look into Data>Apps or System>Apps and see if you can find their .apk files there and delete them. If you aren't rooted, you won't be able to delete them, and I'm not sure what you should do if that happens. If they aren't there, then it's probably just a graphical glitch and is showing what really isn't there.
EDIT: Sorry, I read your post wrong. Go into the app details of Google Play Store and select both clear data and clear cache, and that should solve the problem. If not, try rebooting.

Oh my bad, I wasn't really clear about that. It's actually in your phone settings, not the settings in the Play Store.
So you open up Play Store in 'Manage Applications' as if you were trying to uninstall it. In that menu, you'll see options like Force Stop/Disable. Scroll down, and you'll see the 'Clear data' and 'Clear cache' options, and there ya go. I hope I explained it well.

If it's showing that only on the website, you shouldn't have to worry about it... It does that
It's probably showing them for the "old" one, before you did a factory reset

Oh I see now. I'm sorry, I thought you were saying that the phone was showing it.
Like WinSuk said, I don't see the problem if it's only showing it on the website. It could be showing what's installed on your wife's Aria if you two are sharing an account.

Sorry, I'm getting a bit confused here.
The apps that I mentioned; Airdroid, Astro, google play etc are showing as being installed on the google play web site. These apps are no longer on my phone after I did the factory reset. Therefore I have no way to reinstall the apps as google play is telling me they are already installed.
Is there another way to do this? Can I dl the apk files from somewhere else and install them manually?
Thanks again for all your help

You don't have the Play Store installed on your phone? If that's the case, you need to search up on google to find the apk file for it. Once you do that, you should be able to install the other apps you've mentioned.
Sorry if I misunderstood you again. I'm getting pretty confused here also.

Update:
I managed to install airdroid and Astro through Android Market app (was that the precursor to play store?)
Now when I log in to google play it shows those two apps as installed. Everything else is showing in "other apps in my library" waiting to be installed. I think I'll leave it at that. My airdroid is working again :good:
Thanks for every ones help.

Yep, the Android Market was renamed to the Google Play Store.
It'll eventually update automatically on your phone and change back to the Play Store

Hello everyone. Since yesterday my phone has been polling my location constantly. I didn't find any issues with security (Malwarebytes scan), I'm not using any weird app not from the Play Store, I didn't change any setting and the privacy setting is not showing like any app is asking for location constantly. Are you experiencing anything like this? How would you go about fixing this issue? Thanks.
FIX: Google Play Services 22.45.17 solves the issue. If you didn't get the update you can get it on APKMirror at your own risk.
Same issue here! I guess we should wait for a Google Play services update

I've been digging a bit more and looks like it's not due to Google Play Services. I checked and it polled the location data in the background correctly without triggering the icon in the status bar. There's something else, maybe proprietary to Motorola, that's freaking out and using location all the time.
I don't see the battery being affected though. Did you?

No effect on the battery either here. When did you start seeing this issue? For me it was yesterday.
Last week, then it stopped after disabling and re-enabling all locations setting. Yesterday it happens again
The only new app i installed before it happening was the Google health connect

For me, as of today, it didn't stop disabling and re-enabling the location access. It stopped for a while, but started back showing the location icon after a while. No amount of reboots and checks solved anything.
Have you joined the beta on Google app, Google play services etc? The only thing I didn't try is to unroll from all beta versions

I'm not on the beta Google Play Services app and didn't want to roll back because I think it's gonna mess up something for sure! Also, from what I can see, if you disable and enable the location service and check after a short while the authorizations for the Google Play Services you'll see that it uses location data briefly and correctly in the background without any issues. I think that's not the culprit.

No good news unfortunately. I keep reading online about people having the same issue and nobody knows how to fix it. It's getting ridicolous at this point, really. Someone should get a hold of Google. I tried sending an email through the Play Store, but I got an email back saying that they don't monitor that email address anymore and got sent back to the useless FAQ page.
@dielle27 @Sultan M I got suggested to try to boot the phone in safe mode but it happened again. Wanna try that and let me know?

Got the update too but didn't install it because another user with an Edge 20 is on the same patch and they can't make the icon disappear even for just an hour at the time. On their phone it's on ALL the time, no matter what. So I'm holding off the update.
If i disable and then enable again the location setting, the icon disappears for a while, so for me nothing changed with the update

I've seen that on other forums for other phones they suggested a rollback of the Play Services. I tried but it didn't work. Can you try aswell and let me know if it's a solution for you? Thanks!
It didn't work as well. At least battery life isn't affected, but it's pretty annoying as well to not have a resolution after an official update
Hey everyone. I wasn't able to find a fix online so I figured I'd ask the experts on XDA.
Issue: 1- When I click on an article on my Google feed nothing happens.
2- When I use Google search and click one of the results nothing happens.
Chrome works, Samsung Internet works, and Edge works.
What I've tried: Deleting the storage on the Google app. No dice.
I don't have the same issue on my old S22 Ultra or my Tab S7 Plus.
Has anyone seen this before?
Any help would be appreciated.
Shot in the dark, but do you maybe not have a default internet browser selected? Or did it default to something else somehow that can't open a link? Can you open links from other apps? You could install duckduckgo and see if it'll open in that one maybe.
I would just uninstall Chrome and Google News and just start over.

What if you try to access it from Chrome homescreen ? Under the search bar, there's a "Discover" section which practically is a Google Feed. Does it work ?
Have you tried updating Google App & Android Webview manually ?
Have you allow all permissions for Google app ?
