This has been a current issue since I got my s6 for the 5th time lol. I would download a app and it wold the forever to start downloading, it's not slow download speeds because once it starts it takes seconds to download.
I cleared the play store cache already and even restarted the phone and same issue and I hate buying apps because about time the app actually downloads I can't get a refund if I don't like it.

I've been having this issue as well. I just stop the update then restart it and it usually works OK the second time (although still slow). It hasn't always been like that so I'm guessing it may have something to do with a recent Play Services or Play Store app update.
I realized the issue was that my apps was attempting to update and once I stopped them from updating everything was fine

I had the same issue yesterday when downloading a new app. I simply canceled the install and cleared the cache of the play store, and then I was running at normal speed again.

Anyone else having issues with the Market? I'll explain a little further. Anytime I purchase/pay for an app, it says Completing Checkout or whatever and then Waiting to Install...
I wait. Then I wait. I wait some more. Nothing. Sometimes it says "Please check back when Market Purchase is resolved" or something to that effect. It seems like the purchase never processes in full. On rare occassion it purchases successfully. If I go to the app and try to Install, I get Download Denied or something. Of course, if the purchase goes through successfully, it downloads just fine. It's such a struggle to purchase and download some apps. I'm getting pissed off.
I am having a similar issue whether it is pay or free. Dowloading just stops or install does not complete. No error message just stops. So far not a big deal but reported the issue through market to google (reported as an issue with market) . Hopefully its one of many minor bugs they address soon.

having issues here too, I get it when pressing install, sometimes nothing happens till the 5th or 6th time then it says connection error and I have to hit retry several times before it shows me the permissions page so i can accept the download. Thinking about returning This and waiting for the Samsung tab

for whatever its worth, the market has been doing that on my other two android devices (vibrant and droid) as well... ususaly force stopping it and clearing cache does the trick, but its annoying obviously. pretty sure its not a xoom problem per se.
Out of curiosity are you trying to download while connected via wifi or thru 3g? I noticed that I was having this problem also but only when connected thru 3g. Wifi it downloads just fine with no problems.

i am no longer able to download anything. The market on my xoom is not functional and using the web does nothing. It says it will be installed shortly but nothing ever happens. My guess is because my Market app is jacked.
EDIT: A reboot seems to have fixed the issues. After the reboot about ten or eleven apps just magically installed themselves and the Market works again.
So after setting up my One on Wednesday when it arrived in the mail I had issues with Google store being EXTREMELY slow when downloading/updating apps. It took me half hour to DL an app that was under 4mb. I thought at first that it was my dual band N router so I did the steps of troubleshooting that and rebooting it but still had the same issues.
After nothing seemed to work I did a hard reset as I had skipped through most of the setup prompts while on the phone with CS activating the phone. I think that after the hard reset it was doing the same thing for a few minutes but then seemed to kick in and it was blazing fast to DL and install the apps. Youtube was also giving me issues before where it just wouldn't play anything or would play the first video but if I tried to play another one it would just hang. This also fixed itself and all was good after that.
Well last night I rooted and installed VIPER and did a wipe before turning it on. And again the latency came back. Since it seemed to flash on top of the stock ROM I had cleared everything but the folders on the phone's memory. The latency was still there and it again only seemed to affect Youtube and the Play store. I had given up after clearing the cache on both apps and went to bed around 1am. Just for the heck of it I tried to download another app and this time it blazed through again and all seems to be working again. It seems like it fixed itself after a few hours from my last wipe.
Has anybody else experienced this? I'm going to keep putting it through its paces to see if it comes back again. I'm hoping that it was just some issue with the updating of the Play store or the phone configuring itself fully at some point, don't know. At first I thought it was something with the antennae but I noticed that the internet and other apps worked fine and fast. It just seemed to affect the Play store and Youtube.
Does anyone know if both were having issues recently? I doubt it since like I said, this issue seemed to happen both times on initial setup.
Having the same issue even when connected to WiFi. Have you found a fix yet?

Not sure if this is a phone problem or a google problem, but my Z1 is no longer showing up in the play store from the browser. I'm still able to use it on the phone, but it was just there 5 minutes ago and now no longer showing, even in the settings with my list of devices. I am stock rooted.
Earlier I was trying to force the OTA of the new walkman app earlier and cleared the data on the google services framework and update center. I'm guessing it had something to do with this.
Although the Snapdragon Battery Guru just finished its analysis this morning, but I doubt that had anything to do with it.
Any suggestions?

Did you use anything that may have modified how your device appears to the play store?? that could have done it, but it shouldn't disappear like that at all, could be a glitch, maybe clear data on play services and play store and reboot and hopefully it'll find it, google normally catches on pretty quickly so shouldn't take long to show up, also try a different browser.

Thanks. Back on!
Just got my Dev edition. Upgraded to 4.4.2 and after a while to 4.4.3
All seemed fine until i noticed that Google play books used 40% of the battery... Weird since i opened it, scrolled the list and closed... It wasn't even in the recent app list...
I killed it and added to the disable list (i use fbreader anyway)... Now today (second day with phone) the same happened with YouTube...
It used 30% of the battery. I watched a10s clip... App info said 10s foreground... 30 min background... And again, it wasn't even on the recent app list to be closed. Just went to apps and force closed.
Now I'm worried that this is a thing with everything Google (which honestly i can disable all but gmail and maps) or the OS...
Anyone getting the same? I'm not sure what to search for to find similar threads...
I'm guessing this is either common or i have a ducked device since i got it twice for the 2 days i have it...

Ugh that's really weird. If you're rooted it will be a lot easier to fix but for now reboot the phone and use it like that for another day. Sometimes the OS and apps need time to settle. For example I did a fresh flash two days ago and my Google services had a 1 hour and 13 minute wakelock yesterday where as today it's behaving very well. But YouTube doing that is weird. Never auto update your apps as 85% of updates are crap across the board. Try going to apps under settings and click uninstall updates for YouTube. This should revert YouTube to the version that came with 4.4.3, unless that's already the latest. But yeah for now try and "tickle" YouTube by logging out, wiping cache and data for it under settings/apps and log back in, see if it starts behaving. I'll monitor this thread to try and help.

Thanks. I did all that yesterday and rebooted. So far everything seems fine. So i think you're spot on. Tho it is a bad sign to have those bugs
The phone did lock up twice on me after that.
Once playing webm on chrome. But i just disabled it a while later. Firefox beta ftw! ( ff is the Only reason i have up my nexus one)
Another time when i inserted the Sim with the phone on and right away unlocked the slider... It froze mid slider animation. Think i hit some race condition there. Hopefully i won't be inserting sim cards all the time...
Overall i think i will be able to live with that phone. Now only if i could use nfc unlock with my assine employer email policy...

It may have happened again. It's reporting a widget (simple calendar) as using 15min of cpu with 4min of foreground time. I had opened its setting screen 15 min ago. After i liked it from the recent task list it stopped counting new cpu time. But it's still showing as the top battery user for now.
Since that setting screen has ads, i will just write this off as a sleazy ad library for now.

Hi,
My Z3C keeps giving me notifications such as 'Google Play Services Has Stopped'. It applies to almost all apps and the apps that stop working are every time different ones.
In addition, when I reboot or boot my phone it keeps optimising apps. I get the notification 'Application 1 of 170 optimising'. A reboot takes up 10 minutes or more.
I have done factory resets and also used Sony's pc companion, but no help.
I really hope one of you guys know how to fix this.
Thanks in advance.
edit: phone is original unrooted with 5.1.1

I don't know exactly what you mean, but my phone is completely original with an OTA 5.1.1 update.
