I just realized with the new play store apk, using the search bar again when you have previously searched will crash the app (the search field is populated)
play store version 25.5.27-21
uninstalling the updates to roll back to the default version doesnt have this issue, but the play store app will update itself again back to the latest
anyone has a fix?

i thought it was a corrupted system issue but turns out its not
For anyone who sees this, I have already tried a few things with NO solution (except downgrading play store version)
FYI these do not work:
-Clearing play store data
-Factory Reset
-Flashing stock V600TM20f KDZ
-Downgrading Webview, chrome and Play services

During the first two weeks it was driving me mad. But now that my phone's mostly setup, I've learned to live with it.

Hey there!
My situation is there are two same xperia s devices with the same stock 4.0.4 . Same google localization and we tried to install dead trigger on both.
One of them showed it in play store and installed without a problem, but the other one doesn't show it and can't install it. When we force to the apps play store page it says its incompactible with the device.But when i go to play.google.com manually sign in with the google account and find dead trigger click on install it starts installing. So dead trigger is solved but there are many apps on the play store that the device doesn't show when we search them.
In the app settings i cleared data and deleted updates. It has not solved the problem.
Any help\idea would be appriciated.
Thanks in advance.

If you changed dpi it would affect it. Try a modded market with restrictions removed

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,
after searching the forums, I havn't found a solution to my particular issue with the Play Store:
I'm always getting the error message "no connection". Even though it's not a connectivity issue related to my IP or whatsoever: I can with no issues access the playstore via the browser.
I have:
- cleared the cache and deleted the date of Google Play
- deleted all data in use at Google Services
- uninstalled Google Play Updates
- uninstalled Google Play and installed a .apk I downloaded from the web
- tried the market enabler app - even though I wasn't expecting any improvement from that move
- updated from 4.3 to 4.4
result: Google Play still tells me to have "no connection"
What else can I try besides resetting my phone?
Thanks!

well, that is the only ticket available to you. Why not backup->reset->restore a better option rather than wasting times while searching for solutions
well, i resetted and it's now working again.

I can tell you there are many problems with the Play Store, at least on the Developer side of things, such as statistics for example.
For me, sometimes it works after i delete the hosts file from /system/etc/
I don't really know what causes it. It only happens on some specific ROMs..

Ok so I was using lucky patcher yesterday and I did a patch. my google play didn't connect to the internet after that, so I Deleted the play store completely (yes I have a rooted android) then I downloaded a play store apk here at xda I installed it and still it wouldn't connect, after that I did a factory reset thinking it would give me the android default play store but it didn't. My android had no trace of a play store. So I was getting aggravated and ticked off. I then downloaded a new play store here at xda, and then when I open play store it just crashes. I've done a lot to fix it but no luck. I've added a # in the hosts file and it worked for like a couple second and crashed again. I added 2 # and it worked (Example below) until I tried to download an app.
#127.0.0.1 localhost
#127.229.35.136 android.clients.google.com mtalk.google.com
Any solutions

Not all Play Store versions are the same, nor do they work with every version of android. You need the correct one for your phone and software version. Without knowing these, it's kind of hard to suggest anything further. But did you use Lucky Patcher to mod the Play Store or to block ads? That usually causes these issues.

Your best bet would be to find someone else with your phone that is rooted and then they can share their version with you. Doesn't seem to be any custom roms or much for your phone so can't just download the rom and grab the apk from it like most phones. How were you trying to install the other versions you found?
All I did was install it.
Play store works sometimes if I put 2 # in front of the ip's but once I download something it crashes and I'm back to square 1

I think you can use LP to undo that patch as well. But you should still install the Play Store in the system. That's where it belongs and needs special permissions for everything to function properly.
I don't see anything about unpatching the patch

Need to use the "Remove ODEX with changes" option. Should do the trick.

Sorry I didn't respond sooner. Anything that involved Google didn't work so I had to find a workaround. I couldn't Use apps or crome to reply.
I will try your answers and thanks for replying.
@Paget96
I have tried those options and they didn't work.
However I did notice another thing missing... Google services framework.....
I need it for my device, I may make another thread about that.
I am on Chinese stock EUI 20S. I downloaded play store from Lestore. It cannot recognize my purchased apps. It asked me to buy them again. Should I install other play store manually? Thanks.

Same happened to me. To fix it go to settings/app management /Google play store/storage and clear data and cache. Then when you open play store again it will ask you to log in again. It should now show purchased items again.

Things work ok. Only issues I have is sometimes Gmail won't sync until I manually do it and other times it works fine. It sends texts several times sometimes and some don't come through but that could also be an EE issue where I am as it constantly switches from 4g to 3g to 2g as on edge of good reception so my not be a phone issue at all.
