Well this is smth new. I have just bought my new z3c and its working all fine. Im installing apps no prblm, until suddenly the phone won't install anymore! The page to install the app comes up and the cancel button works but the install button doesnt click!!
I can only think to blame AVg bcuz I had activated it just before this prblm happened. And there is no.deactivate option on AVG.
UPDATE: restarted phone and killed AVg; prblm still exists
Anyone?
Please?
Reset the phone while saving your data
Does it happen on Wi-Fi, mobile data, or both?

Yes, the only solution I came to was to reset the phone. Not the best option since I had to do everything I had before again. Anyways, it's okay now.

I don't think that would be relevant to the problem. The problem is in parsing the apk.

I once found that if I limit background data on an app called "Media" (in settings, data usage), I could not download any apps over mobile data from Google Play as long as the background data of that app was limited. It may not have been the case for the OP but who knows?
The problem is back again!
The problem is back again!!
And Sony doesn't even have online support and it's page doesn't even address the problem.

Do any of you have some screen app installed/active? Like screen dimmer?
If you do, just disable it and you will be able to press Install again

Nope. The only solution I found was to be patient and wait. After a couple of hours, or a day or two I try pressing the Install button once again and it works. I just let it off my mind for some time until the night, or the next (couple of) day(s). Interestingly, this isn't a problem if I'm installing directly from Google Play which installs the app itself. That's why I think it could be a security module or something.

I have screen filter, but I reckon this problem existed from before installing screen filter. Plus, I reset my phone once which also means deleting Screen Filter, but the problem still exists.

Uninstall updates to google playstore app. The reason it worked when you reset your phone was it reset all apps back to their factory settings. Then apps would install until google play updated itself again. So try just uninstalling updates to google play, worked for me. Good luck!

Hi,
I have the latest stock rom (LC1) for 2 days already and today my gmail app started freezing. When I open it, i can do nothing, the only working button is the home one. I deleted its cache, user data etc. and rebooted my Note twice but it didnt work.
Any ideas ?
I have exact same problem, Gmail is acting up with erratic behavior, capacitive touch buttons dont work and app crashes if you share something with gmail.
I think the latest firmware is to blame.

Same here. Reboots, and force closes doesn't help. Have any of you used the stylus calibration app?

No, never heard of it. Why you ask ?
Tons of people are having problems with gmail (myself included). My main gmail account used to lock up, but it has since disappeared from the app. Look at the reviews in the play store
edit: mine is back to proper condition now
It's a problem with the app. It seems to be a random problem, luckily for me, i'm not experiencing it, but i've heard of plenty of people who are.

go to settings, more, application manager, all, and clear data, then stop services for google services framework....then go into system update and update samsung software...... you may have to do that up to 10x with a few restarts in between
also you need to at least have 35% battery
works everytime for me!
if you notice after you clear data and go to system update, it shows that it last checked i 1969......this somehow resets the que and puts you in front of the line
Although this update fixed my red hues during black backgrounds, it added the purple blur/smearing thing when scrolling though quickly...at least we know its a software problem and not hardware
Ok...
I'm going to put this here as I did in the 2 other ota threads.. would someone please grab a log of the link (or grab the download prior to try to install) if they are getting propmted so we can get this to look at?
A bunch of people talking about it, no one trying to get it?
Not sure how. I would be happy to grab the download and get it to someone.

Depends on how people are getting the prompt.. Within the other thread, one of the three anyway, there was this post by a rooted user that had the fail..
This would be ideal because it should have been sitting in /cache (as we've seen on other devices) and it could simply have been pulled.
The only other option (and it will probably not be successful without root but worth a try) would be getting a logcat (running log during process), then forcing the prompt by clearing framework in hopes of catching the download link when the prompt arrives and tapping it. Pull log, inpect it for link and go and get it manually.

By clearing all data in 'Google Services Framework' will this delete any of your contacts, settings, etc.?

Another possible method of grabbing files on a non rooted phone is airdroid app. Connect with PC, choose files folder. By default it will go to the SD card but you can back up and get to the phone's system files after a warning screen. If the theory works, just start poking around the file system until you find the update and download it to the computer. You can't edit anything with airdroid but you can grab files at least if you're not rooted. I've never tried this but did see it show the phone's internal files when trying to get to external storage when the default go to folder was internal storage.
Got my update, turned off dev mode, force stopped google services framework, and cleared data.
So much smoother

I have a Sprint HTC One, I'm running it rooted and with a custom rom. It used to work fine until about 5-6 days ago my Google Play Store App would not display any apps at all. I would go in and everything would be blank. I've Factory reset phone, wiped phone, I've tried 3 different ROMS and am having the same problem with all 3 (Rage, DigitalKarmaZen, and Stock+Goodies) With Rage I would get just a blank store, Zen and Stock the store immediately closes. I'm sorry if this has been asked before but I couldn't find a fix. I'm really hoping I can find a fix so I can get the store working again. My phone is S-ON for what that's worth, I don't quite know the difference or if it matters

I'm using TWRP I go into Wipe and go to Advanced and check everything except the last option which says something about USB which I wasn't sure what that was. So I think I'm wiping it properly. I'm not 100% on that though

Hmm. While this isn't the source of your problem, why would you do that? A wipe of cache, dalvik and /system is all you need, I believe.
The basic wipe in TWRP is enough, and all I ever used as a flashaholic.
I tried that at first without the advanced wipe but it didn't work so I figured I'd just try to wipe everything and see if it helped lol

OK. So lemme get this straight. You downloaded a (sense) ROM. You did a full wipe. You flashed it. You booted. You set everything up the way HTC/Google told you to. Then, Play Store wouldn't work?

Correct. It was not instant though. Google Play had been working for a couple weeks and then recently it stopped working.
Looks like the Play Store has me marked as a different country or something?
I did a wipe and reinstalled Rage (The only one I could get to show Google Play store at all), opening up Play Store still no apps showing, but I can search for apps as long as I type exactly what it's called (IE: I can search for facebook but I have to type "Face" and click on the facebook icon once it pops up, otherwise it doesn't allow me to search for apps. And when I click on the app it says "This item isn't available in your country"
I'll try to do some research with this new info but if anyone has any idea on it, some advise would be greatly appreciated
Also I created a brand new GMail account thinking it might have been something to do with my GMail account I was using or something.

I have sent an email to them, they replied me back but i think this is a automatic message. I could figure this out myself too...i am dissapointed though.
If an application won't respond can this damage the inside of the phone or damage the processor? I really need this app...

I have tried everything I know to try to fix it cleared app caches - factory reset - nothing. I know of five gs5 users affected by this - it seems to have happened the week following the 4.4.4 update.
I hate it
I, too, am having this same issue. I can't stand it!! I've tried everything I can think of and nothing fixes it. And, like you, it's been happening since this latest update. They need to fix it or provide us with a way to do it. I was about to reset my phone to factory settings when I saw this thread, and it looks like that won't help either.
I have read on a another website that restarting the device fixes it temporarily - but I have not seen this. Reached out to ATT on twitter, but haven't received any helpful response.
Restarting fixes it for me for a day or so.

Did an update on my google apps and it fixed it temporarily. Now it's back to sucking again...
When hold the button on 4.4.2, greenify comes up as an option, as well as do nothing. hitting this disables the function entirely. I'm not sure if this is an option on 4.4.4, and maybe it's because I have the donate version of greenify.
Edit:Saw on another thread there is an option in the system menu of Wanam to disable the long press entirely and mine is turned off
I think I found the fix. Go to App Manager>All, find Google Search and uninstall updates. Reboot your phone. It worked on my phone. I thinks the latest Google search update is the culprit. Also disable auto update in google play.

This is compete crap. That update screwed a few things up. Most annoying is this search problem. I tried the above suggestion, but I don't have anything in my app list titled "Google search". Not sure what the deal is. Any suggestions?
S5 on ATT 4.4.4
Edit...Uninstalled the update for the actual Google app and it might have fixed it. The restart was mandatory as it was still acting up even after removing the update.
