Solved my "Unfortunately, Google Play Store has stopped"

Well I finally fixed it…. “Google Play has stopped working …” error in my S3

Previously when I rooted my S3 and installed Titanium Backup, I had changed Google Play from a System app to a User app… fail. Nooo it don’t like it. Tried alot of stuff to get it back working

Just undid it, changed Google Play back from User app to a System app and viola!! :laugh:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] aps786:
Well, it may not be the reason for issue. I also made it user app but there was no issue untill once i stopped when some app was getting downloaded.

I tried every thing like restoring from Titanium backup, cleanig cache,cleaning data for google play store and google play services but no luck. Finally it got resolved when i flashed gapps after deleting google account. Then after flashing gapps when i created new acount a d then install apk it worked.

Hope this will help.

Hey

i've been trying to find a custom rom that i can install onto my completely stock sgs2 lte without connecting to pc and flashing with odim. My phone is apparently defected and cannot connect to pc, trying to install custom rom might fix the issue. the phone is completely stock, not even rooted.

can someone direct a link to that rom?

thanksks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] roughneckboren:
the only way as far as I know is to hook it up to PC. Mine did the same thing. Wouldn't register on a PC. I tried various cables until I found one that would work. That's the best advice I can give you.

Try different USB Ports and different cables or another computer.

If your rom version support the zerg rush rooting method you can do it, install cwm and flash a rom from there.

I never had to flash anything using odin, tried using odin only once and even then I dont think it recognized my phone due to bad kies drivers(which I have fixed by now).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] roughneckboren:
you do have the correct drivers installed right? More info in your first post would be an advantage to those trying to help

yes i have tried various cables as well as a search result, doesn't seem to budge.

yes i have tried different ports and as well as installing kies / drivers on different computers including windows xp, windows vista, windows 7, no conclusion.

yep i tried every single driver for the sgs2 lte that i can search on xda.

i've tried that but never tested on mac because i dunno anyone that has a mac nearby lol.

i have contacted samsung, they said its defected so send it in for repairs, since i dont have warranty they'd charge me up the ass. Its funny because they asked me why do i need to plug to pc, i simply said music, photo... shoulda been like TO MOD YOUR ****. :p

more or less, i have last resort to sell it on kijiji and buy another same model off kijiji, hoping its not defected. the sgs2 is a sweet phone, real talk lol

i dont have a problem with getting roms onto my phone, i have a microsd adapter that i use to transfer, just issue is if can get pass the stupid E:signature vertification failed on the recovery upgrade from zip that be awesome, but that means i have to root, but how do i root without the pc..

BUMP

Hi, I want some help with this same issue. I'm not sure what forum etiquette is here, whether you guys prefer a bump of an old thread or that I just start a new one??

Anyway my phone is wigging out so I wanted to wipe and flash but I can't figure out how to do this since no PC/cord combo will recognize my phone, though it still charges. I wanted to use ROM Manager to flash OTA, but I can't since I can't figure out how to get cwm installed ota. I've been digging around the forum and googling for a couple days now to no avail.

Version - 2.3.5

Baseband - I727UCKJ2

Kernel - 2.6.35.11

It was rooted but I never flashed any roms. It randomly shuts itself off and upon a battery pull will get stuck in Odin dl mode? If i do a batt pull after that it will go straight back to Odin dl mode or it get's stuck in a vibration loop. Sometimes if I plug it in it will start up with a dead battery though?

Any ideas?

Should I just make a new thread on this??

[General Questions and Answers] x3mandapanda:
So before I go into detail, I would like to apologize in advance if this question/problem is some where on this site. I have looked all over and I couldn't find anything or I just missed it, also if I'm posting in the wrong section.

A couple days ago I bought a Tmobile Mytouch 4g that was rooted and running 2.3.4. I have rooted a few phones before so I figured getting a non-rooted phone (another MT4G) I would be able to root no problem. Now to my question/problem. I downgraded the phone to 2.2.1 (after 3 days of working at it) I was also able to temp root with VISIONary and then permroot, which all went fine as well.... I used Titanium backup to back up all apps+data on my other phone to transfer to my new phone but when I go into Titanium backup none of my backed up apps are there...? Has anyone had this problem or something similar? I tried clearing the data, uninstalling, reinstalling... Now on my other MT4G (rooted and running 2.3.4) I used titanium backup and it worked just fine all my apps were there, so I'm wondering if I need to upgrade from 2.2.1 to 2.3.4 in order to see my backed up apps in Titanium backup?:confused: Also, if someone could give me a link to a good guide for noobs for upgrading from 2.2.1 to 2.3.4, that would be awesome! Like I said, I am an extreme noob so any help will be greatly appreciated, thanks!

You can open your files in sd card find titanium backup folder and open it.you can find your backup there extract it using an app.

Actually, I can't do that because when I go to my MT4G and go into /sdcard/TitaniumBackup, there are absolutely NO backups in there!:mad: But on my old device when I go into /sdcard/TitaniumBackup ALL of my back ups are there. So I'm not sure why they aren't transferring over to my MT4G!:confused:

when you are working with your old device ? You can see the backup file rite? Copy it to storage and open the titanium backup folder on mt4g copy the backup file to that folder...try

Hi,

I rooted my Asus Prime after the ICS update and I'm now being prompted for a new OTA update but it fails every time it tries to install.

I'm currently running Android 4.0.3; build #9.4.2.15-20120221. I can't figure out what version it's trying to update to.

Will I have to unroot in order to update? I tried the Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper and the temp. unroot but it still fails.

[HTC Inspire 4G] CYRAXDroid:
When rooting the phone it does unlock your phone? I have been looking across some sites saying that it does or it does not. Also the ace hack kit does unlock your phone.

I thought it does because when you flash a Rom it cause what carriers.

Other ? Is I also notice the sim tool kit but when I click on it it says its not ready or supported. Just wondering why its not.working I did come.across http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/SIM_Application_Toolkit

Overall I don't.need to unlock my phone cause its already unlocked. And the sim tool kit its nothing major.:D
[HTC Inspire 4G] zelendel:
No rooting your phone does not unlock it. But the ace hack kit does unlock it. Most sim tool kits do not work as they were not made for updated phones
[HTC Inspire 4G] CYRAXDroid:
Ok when I rooted my phone I rooted by a tut video and it was the buddys root method lol I never used the ace hack kit before. Im downloading the AHK to see, I can still use that even though I used a different method? The AHK it self does the unlocking method from what I can see...

If I just wanted to unlock it i could just get the unlock code and go from their but I know you have to get a non accepted sim card.
[HTC Inspire 4G] pazzo02:
If you are already rooted it's not recommended to use the ace hack kit. You'll have to unroot first.
[HTC Inspire 4G] glevitan:
If you are rooted, then you are probably Sim unlock. As Pazz told you, don't use the Hack Kit, you will get jammed. First, check is you are already sim lock by using the method in point 5 of this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php?title=HTC_Vision#Rooting_the_Vision_.28G2.2FDZ.29_and_DHD

If that is not working, then you can revert to stock using the Hack Kit and re rooting...that will give you sim unlock....:cool:
[HTC Inspire 4G] CYRAXDroid:
O wasnt going to use the hack kit just saying. I also came across in the dev part for the stock ruu and shows how to go back to out of the box phone status. But there is couple of ways to revert back to stock phone lol so many choices

Cause I was thinking about selling my HTC inspire and was also looking to see how unroot the phone to go back to stock
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lifeflare:
I have been having some issues with my DHD of late (lag, repeating letters on the keyboard, dropping 3g etc) and called my carrier (TELUS) who told me that I had to pull the battery from the phone at least once a week as part of regular maintainance, BECAUSE it is running android.

I find this very hard to believe, and though I am a big believer of having to "power cycle" electronic devices every so often (I think the ones and zeros start having a party in the memory and need to be told to get out of the lounge and go back to work), trying to get that battery out of the case once a week is just a plain pain in the backside! It really doesn't take that long but it seems a bit of an overkill!

Has anyone else here been told that they have to pull the battery once a week as part of the regular 'maintainence' of their phone?

Next thing you know they will be telling me I have to factory reset the phone once every two weeks! :D
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rootingdestroyer:
Never heard of this recommendation before. I try to do a battery cycle once a fortnight as well and power it off very occasionally for a few hours. But I don't take the battery out unless I have a stuff up in ROM. This seems really weird. Rebooting once a week is probably what they mean?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sashank:
A regular reboot will have the same effect as pulling the battery, so you could just do that.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rootingdestroyer:
Are you sure? Sometimes when I've been using it heavily for a while I disassemble the phone to let the battery cool off quicker. (Take out sim, SD, battery, doors.) Does my method help at all do you think?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sashank:
Well when my phone gets very hot (especially when it's in the phone cradle in my car on a sunny day), I just hold it in front of the air conditioner for sometime till it cools down. But this is due to external heat. During usage I don't think the phone will exceed any temperature limits and become dangerous. I think that disassembling the phone completely including SD card is overkill. It's not necessary to do that much. I do think that heat can degrade battery performance and cause it to discharge faster or expand in size, but I don't know the veracity of my information. Maybe someone with knowledge about batteries will see this and enlighten us. But the max I'd do if my phone becomes very hot is to just switch it off an let it cool for sometime. It cools pretty quickly when it's off. You don't need to disassemble it. Try that next time. :)

Regarding laggy performance of the phone and the suggested battery pull as regular maintenance, I don't see how removing and reinserting the battery is any different to just restarting the phone. I mean, you don't remove the battery on your laptop when Windows starts lagging on you right? You just restart the OS to flush RAM and other stuff. Removing the battery seems redundant and extra work.

Battery pulls are unheard of for android phones. Blackberrys yes androids no. Are you running a stock ROM?
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chezbel:
LOL... if battery pulls were required then my phone must be in really bad shape since the only times I've pulled the battery in 18 months is if I flash something bad and my phone locks up during boot, which is very rare.

I think the comic you linked to says it all.

If your running the ICS leak you can go into settings and completely turn off the back lighting on the touch keys on the bottom of the phone. I know where the buttons are. I don't need them to be glowing. This helps me especially at night when it would kill my eyes having those LEDs on.

Quit bumping your thread, it's annoying, and if anything will make people NOT want to answer your question. Not to mention there are hundreds of threads about battery charging you could have looked at.

As with ANY lithium ion battery, there is no need to "break it in". Just fully charge it when you get it, that's it. As far as the SBC kernal, I wouldn't be using it, but that's up to you.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] twiztidvandal417:
The best way to get the most out of your extended battery is to drain it fully and charge it up to 100% then do a couple discharges 100-0 like 3 times or so, as far as sbc goes I haven't used one yet since I use an external charger for my extended batteries

[General Questions and Answers] tmb993:
Hey guys,

Quick question, I hope it's not redundant but I looked around and didn't see a similar thread. I just rooted my Galaxy Note i717 using Odin and have installed CWM Recovery. The main reason I wanted to root was to overclock my phone slightly. My question is, what is the best app for over clocking the stock ROM and what are some safe values. I've seen some extremes such as a max of 1900+ and a min of 350 ish, I know that's bad for battery life though. I was thinking around 1600-1700 max and a min of 250 ish. I'd like to have better performance but I dont want suckish battery life, preferably still a day on a charge. But i'm new to all this and really have no clue.

Thanks! :)

Shyamjptpm is correct, not all the ROM support cpu overclock, when choosing a ROM you need to search for a custom ROM where is specified that support overclock, then I dont know your android phone but there's also a good chance that no ROMs present the overclock feature.

Hello. Just bought a galaxy nexus for myself. WIll be deciding whether to stay with the galaxy nexus or my iphone 4s.

The screen size is a welcome upgrade but i find myself missing a certain app.

On the iphone, i used "due" religiously. VERY simple todo app with reminders. You make a quick task and then you have one touch buttons to delay it for 15 minutes, one hour, one day, etc. It also had badges which let me know I had things to do everytime I was on the homescreen.

Unfortunately the three todo apps i saw on android were just a complex mess (at least when compared to due).

Is there a simple todo app with reminders/badges someone can recommend me? I unfortunately think the GN will be going unless i find one.
