I am having an issue/annoyance with updating apps through the new google play apk; it seems that since updating to the new apk, my apps no longer update simultaneously. Previously on the original android market, I could have multiple apps downloading/updating at the same time with no problem, however now that I have gone to Google Play, they will only download/update one at a time. Is there a way to fix this problem?
Thanks
You may want to try going to settings - applications, then looking for the Play Store app. Open its listing, and choose "clear data". Then go back and open the store again. It should correct itself and allow multi-updating.
r u into gruppen kex? Why do u need to simultaneously download apps? Give that single core CPU a rest!

In that same place, try uninstalling updates and letting google play pick up the updates again. That may help.

Every time I flash a new ROM after wiping, the Market application tries to download tons of apps that I've had in the past (some were uninstalled long ago).
I dont want ANY download to be done automatically, since I'm using Titanium Backup to restore the apps that I need, and the huge amount of downloads from the market just messes up my phone, and forces me to cancel every download manually, and uninstall those that I couldnt cancel on time...
I understand that some people need this feature, for me its the exact opposite...
Is there a way to manage/clear these apps from my google account?
Is there a way to force google not to save these apps for me?
Many thanks in advance!

Under settings -> Privacy you have the option to back up your data and do automatic restore when apps are reinstalled. Disable those and it should remove the settings.
skip the initial configuration. this will essentially stop google from downloading ur previous apps.
after that, setup ur google acct via gmail or the market app.
hope this helps.
thanks! will give it a shot right now

By the way, you can skip the entire initial setup menu by tapping in the top-left, top-right, bottom-right, and bottom-left corners on the screen that says to touch the Android to begin.

+1. If you skip the config and log in later, it won't try to restore apps.
Hi there,
I just re-installed my favorite Rom and I remember that it asked me in the beginning which programs I want to install. It was specific to the ROM and had maybe 20 different major apps like GMail, Google Maps or Facebook on it. Some apps returned with an error message, that they couldnt be downloaded.
So after looking up GMaps or Facebook on the market, they show up but the Install Button does not so there is no way for me get it off the market. I checked my phone but no GMaps to be found, I tried installing it from other sources but can't seem to find it anywhere. Is my last resort to manually go through the .apk? Or has anyone had this problem before and knows what to do?
thanks
Make a backup of "MarketUpdater.apk" located in "/system/app/" using any root explorer app (or use adb). After making the backup, delete the application. Then go to Settings > Apps > Manage Apps > Market > "Uninstall updates" .. when you get the old market back you can install any app you want.
That's a known issue in the new market.
Hm how do I completely delete the android market from my phone? I managed to download the android market apk, uninstalled the updates but still same issue. I think I need to completely uninstall the app, just not sure how to do that

I had a similar issue with some apps in the new android market. I finally read in a post here on XDA that the market does not work with certain LCD densities. I had mine set to 200 and had to change it to 240 and that solved my inability to download google maps and other apps. So give that a shot and let me know what happens.

:/ sorry. but that's why the new market is not included in the newest version of hyperdroid cm7.
I solved the same problem with "Market enabler"
https://market.android.com/details?id=ch.racic.android.marketenabler&feature=more_from_developer
chose T-mobile
I have the same problem with the old market, manually updating to the new one makes no difference. Funnily, using typhoon I can set my density to any I like. Market enabler made no difference. What's really weird is that it only seems to affect some phones. I have a sneaking suspicion it's a tmous issue.

Have you flashed a custom ROM lately and then suddently your Play Store is force closing now? What a pain in the ass, right?
Well, it's not that difficult to fix it, actually it is very simple. Here is how to do it:
You need to go down to SETTINGS>APPLICATIONS>MANAGE APPLICATIONS and in the tab ALL you search the application named GOOGLE PLAY STORE.
Inside it you click the button CLEAR DATA and that's it, you are ready to go and download/update your app now.
Hope it helped.
Tonight, I updated plenty of my apps on my nexus7 and no problems.
Decided to try a few new apps now and every thing I try to download is showing as an error.
Anyone else having problems? I havent changed anything on my device and just wondered if its a market issue?
Thanks

Yes happened to me tonight too, Ive even tried deleting my account clearing data, cache in play store app, rebooting, uninstalling updates and zilch. Short of doing a factory reset im at a loss.
Yep. I have the same problem at the moment..
thanks folks, I tried all the same steps so its definitely a Google play store issue.
I tried my S2 as well and same problem.................................Google
This issue was solved on my wife's Nexus 7 by following the instructions on the Google Play Store help page:
Make sure you've cleared the cache and data of both the Google Play Store app and the Download manager. Here's how:
Visit Menu > Settings > Applications > Manage applications
Tab over to "All"
Select the Google Play Store app, and then tap "Clear data" and "Clear cache;" then, select Download manager and tap "Clear data" and "Clear cache"
Start Google Play Store again.
Hope this helps.

Server issues?
I was having issues, so I just came back a couple hours later and everything worked again. Maybe something's going on with their servers??
Play store downloads have been super slow for me recently. Speed test shows 30Mbps but play store downloads are like 50Kbps.

So I got this little msg display on my phone today. Been trying to listen to iHeartRadio and it kept disconnecting. After I rebooted my N6, a msg popped up saying I will need Google Play Services, which apparently is not installed on my phone, in order to continue using apps. I have it installed and up to date. Anyone else experience this?

I went to the play store but didn't see an option of how to upgrade to the latest. How else can I do this?
