[Q] Need Help with Google Talk and Marketplace . . .

I rooted my NOOKColor a couple of days ago using Auto-nooter 3.0 and everything went fine. I was able to start up Google Talk, browse the Android Marketplace and download a few apps, sync with my Gmail account, and basically do everything I tried.
Somewhere along the way, I lost the ability to start up Google Talk. Along with that whenever I try to download an app from the Marketplace, the screen says "Starting Download" but the download never starts. I searched the mobileread forums, the Android forums, and the messages posted here looking for a solution. It appears that the root of the problem is the inability to start Google Talk which somehow prevents the downloading of apps from the Marketplace.
Does anyone know how to get Google Talk working again ?? I know that I can just "un-root" the NC and start from scratch but that seems like a bit of overkill - sorta like breaking an egg with a sledgehammer!!
Any help or suggestions on how to get both Google Talk and Marketplace downloading again would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks . . .

S6 won't load in apps, although there's a working internet connection

Hey guys,
since 3 days my S6 won't load any apps, e.g. the YT-App needs a long time so show the videos and when I click on a video, the video description, the comment section etc. loads up, but the video won't load, until there's an error. Same sh*t with the GMAIL App. It won't update my mails (I knew that I had some new mails). I have this problem with a lot of apps, I also tried reinstall the YT-App (With the others ones I didn't try yet), but it won't work. I even tried different versions. I had to download the apk of the YT-App through the browser, because I can't download apps through the PlayStore. The problem can't be my internet connection, because when I try to watch YT in the browser everything works perfect. When I got this error I hadn't changed anything in my settings, or downloaded anything. I've got the newest firmware.
I hope you know how to fix my problem
PS: Sorry for my english

Google Drive issue (and other Google apps)

Hi everyone.
I'm at a bit of a loss here. I've had 2 issues with Google apps on this phone. One is regarding Calendar which was force closing as soon as I tried to edit an event. Others on here had the problem and advised a factory reset which I wanted to avoid.
Yesterday however, Google Drive seemed to stop seeing Sheets, Docs etc as when you try to create a new document, those options don't appear. This also means I can't use Drive to edit any document however if I open Docs or Sheets directly I can access the same files and edit them.
I use Drive a lot so I bit the bullet and did a factory reset this morning.
Everything was okay and both apps seemed fine again, however for no apparent reason (I rebooted just now), Drive is broken again.
Calendar is still fixed but I have no idea what's going on. It's like Drive can't see that Docs and Sheets are installed.
Has anyone experienced this or got any ideas?
Aaaaand Google Calendar is broken again. I changed the colour of each if my calendars and unselected my Hotmail calendar. Force closes now every time I try to open an event to edit.
Just checked my Google Drive and it's allowing opening of Sheets files, also never had the Calendar issue, I have multiple shared calendars in action with my account as well.
no problems with either - if you have an o365 account you could install excel and onedrive to see if any issues
The problem isn't that I can't open the files though as if I open the apps Docs or Sheets, they'll open and edit fine. When in the Drive app though, if you try to create a new item, I only get options for an upload, photo or new folder and no sheet. Likewise when clicking on a text document, it opens in the built in Drive viewer but not the Docs editor.
It's like Drive isn't seeing that the other apps are installed.
Very odd. Not sure if it's related to the calendar issues other had. I've tried all sorts of combinations of changing permissions and battery saving etc but to no avail.
So I figured it out and it was my own fault - I was in the Google Play Services beta.... Latest update broke maps showing in other apps (that's what helped me work it out as it gave an error about play services updating) as well as giving my calendar and drive issues.
Posting in case others come across this issue!
That's a definite bummer. I have not yet experienced that. I certainly hope I won't.
One of the first things I did when I got my P20 Pro last Saturday, April 28 was to STOP all auto-updates, including the auto-update of apps.
What I have in mind, if was in the same situation, would be to factory reset the unit. Then deactivate the auto-update feature. I'm not sure if it'll work with others, though.
Have you tried getting in touch with Huawei yet?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So the effect I am getting is when I open the sheet from google drive it shows a previewed sheet, but not actually a valid file you can edit (i.e. it's still using drive not sheets) - you can choose 'open with Sheets' and then it does open in sheets. You can also open the web browser version and it prompts you to 'Use App' with a button. I can't get it to open into Sheets without an additional tap - it definitely did before...
If you look at the recent reviews, it's not just P20 pro which has issues with maps

Google Now/search crashing constantly after today's update

So they seemingly fixed the annoying Google Play Services bug with an update earlier today. However I also just received an update to the main Google app (to version 8.3.14.21.arm64) and I pretty much can't type more than a few letters - or occasionally a few words - into the Google search field (whether accessed through the search bar or from the main Google Now feed pane) without an instant crash back to the home screen.
Only way to use Google search now for me is the old fashioned round-about way through a web browser.
Anyone else having this problem?
First time in seven years I've had a smartphone that wasn't a Samsung and I'm almost immediately hit by two of the most obnoxious Google app issues I've had in years. Good thing I'm not paranoid...
Uninstalling and reinstalling the updates for Google appears to have fixed the issue.
That was unfortunately a temporary fix. It's back to crashing whenever I type a few letters in the search field.
