I can no longer update apps. Help? - Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers

Ever since the Oreo update, my apps when updated will just be perpetually on "installing" with no progress made. I tried clearing the data and cache and all but nothing works.

I have the same issue, but only with 100+ mb updates or fresh installs, and I have not updated to oreo, really odd

[Q] Market Issues

Is anyone else still having issues with the Market not showing all your apps after flashing CM7? At first I didn't have the problem, but after RC4 and the last couple of nightlies and, and now the stable release of CM7, I still can't get all my apps to show. I've tried just about everything I can think of - restoring from TiBu, wiping cache & Dalvik, unstalling update, rebooting more times than I can count. Am I missing something? Is there some setting I'm supposed to have checked or unchecked?
I know that this has been addressed in several threads, and I have tried everything that I've seen mentioned. I also know that it is not essential that they be in the Market since I obviously still have all my apps, I just don't want to miss any updates.
Thanks in advance.

Google play services crashes

Last night, something went wrong with my phone and google play services kept crashing. After numerous times of clearing cache and deleting the updates, I decided to install GApps through twrp. My firmware is 5.02 with Sense 6.0 and I flashed gapps-5.1-2015-05-23-24.zip. This because I clicked Lollipop (Android 5.0+) and could only choose from two versions of 5.1. The flashing went fine, I cleared cache and Dalvik and rebooted the phone. But play services still crashes! No google things work because of it, not even my playstore. Does anyone have an idea what I can try before I'm forced to go back to fabric?

Google Now and others resetting when phone restarts (please help!)

I have tried everything and nothing works, so I am coming to this expert forum for help!
So, in March I downloaded the TWRP 3.1.0 for my rooted OP 3T and installed it. When I updated my LineageOS version a couple of days later, it didn't install properly, an error came up... and something in Google broke. The TWRP 3.1.0 wasn't working properly, so I downgraded to 3.0.3 and went back some days in LineageOS, but the damage was done.
This is what happens now each time I restart the phone:
- Google Now resets (I need to re-sign up for it every time I start the phone)
- Google Play Store resets (I need to uncheck the autoupdate, the new icons for new apps, etc)
- Contacts and Calendar data resets and downloads again
- Phone calls disappear
- Google Now Launcher resets (bloody annoying, I have to use Nova Launcher because of this)
- For the first week, GMail was not starting, luckily I updated the GApps and it started working again
It's almost like some Google account data is being wiped every time I restart, which is extremely annoying.
I have since upgraded TWRP to 3.1.1 and all works smoothly with installs etc, but the above persist.
I have tried updating Google Play Services, GApps, Lineage OS, have tried wiping all the partitions (literally), I really don't know what else to do. Anyone with a clue?
Many thanks!!!
Just to follow up, it seems to have been fixed after I literally wiped ALL partitions, including all data (I had to sideload the OS and GApps!). Anyway, hope it helps anyone who had this same problem. Cheers!

Verizon Security Updates

Has anyone else received the last 2 updates and noticed everything crashes? The Oreo update was fine but these 2 security updates messed up big time. I've wiped the cache but I still have the same problems. I did not have this problem before these 2 updates.

I have not installed it yet but were you able to get everything fixed such as the crashing of apps
No, in fact it did it again. So far I've wiped the cache with the system mounted and without the system mounted. I don't want to reset the phone, but I might have too.

I'm not rooted and it's seems to be less frequent crashes now
It's still crashing. The system ui crashed twice along with other apps. Should I wipe my phone?

Can't install the June update (software update unsuccessful)

Okay so i did a clean install of the stock rom (Pie) with May update. Flashed all the files and was finally at the home screen. Got a notification for June security patch and i installed it immediately. Keep in mind till now no modifications were done to the phone including rooting, the rom is stock, clean and without any modifications. The only thing unlocked is my bootloader.
I observed when the update reaches around 80% it says update unsuccessful. No changes were made to the system. I tried downloading the update again, rebooting, formating/wiping data both via stock recovery as well as TWRP, factory reset. Even tried updating without SD-card just in case. Again flashed the full stock rom but to no avail, the update was not successful.
Any ideas why i can't apply june update and how am i supposed to solve this? Thanks

I have no ported apps. As i said, its stock rom with no modifications. I didn't install any app from anywhere. The only apps i have in my phone are pre-installed apps which come with the stock rom such as Google Drive, Play Books.. I even tried clearing the data of the pre-installed apps but still no update. Also today i tried flashing the retail version of the stock rom with may security update. I think there is an issue as i flashed the retail version of the rom, the about section from the settings app still shows software channel as "Retin". Shouldn't it be showing retail version

You have to flash the first pie update (November patch) and then you can do updates.
