RPC Go Play Market Issue! - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Ok so for the last 2 days the Go Play Market has been giving me nothing but major problems! When I go to My Apps It only shows like 6 apps installed and gives me a RPC Error when I go to update apps. And all app downloads are failing. Tried clearing the Market cache and download cache but still won't work. What the hell! Google knows about the issue but no fix has been given!

Possible fix
I have also experienced this same glitch on my Droid Charge ruining Tweakstock 1.4. Thus is what I did which seemed to work, but I still don't have the 2 seperate pages in the "my apps" section. Using Titanium Backup, I wiped the goggle play store data, uninstalled the google play store, then installed market 3.4.4 then opened Market, accepted the popups then let my phone sit with market open. I went to sleep and when I woke up and checked phone...all my purchased apps, installed and not installed, were in the "my apps" section. However, I still don't have the new My Apps section that has 2 sections

Dam Google get your sh!t straight and fix this issue already! Market is totally broken even on the web page! shouldn't take this long! starting to get really pissed!

Remove the tibu market helper. Remove market using tibu.. remove the market backup from tiBu completely.. download n install market from
http://androidadvices.com/download-updated-google-play-store-apk/
Reboot (if u want to be certain, wipe data, clean system,fix perms etc etc).. once Rom is up,
when you run market for first time after reboot,do it on wifi n not on the tmo ntwrk.
That fixed for me.
All the best.
Note:m not a Dev n can't explain y this should/not work. This fixed mine so m just sharing...
Edit: I'm running gingersnap.

Agreed...I've tried everything that everyone else has suggested. The only thing that seems to work perfect for me is to remove google play store and market updater using TiBU then install market 2.3.6 then convert to system app...everything shows up

This is what I did step by step
1. Using TiBU, I wiped google store data
2. Uninstalled google play store
3. Unistalled market updater.apk
4. Using TiBU, clean up Dalvik
5. Reboot phone
6. Install market 2.3.6 do not open app
7. Using TiBU, convert market to system
8. Open market app and leave open for a few minutes
Unfortunately you are stuck with an old version of the market but hopefully it will show your purchased apps whether they are installed or not

Anyone had any luck running the new version of google play store?

I'm going to share what I did/do to fix this, the new market is stupid and broken, I hate the new "My Apps" section, specifically the "all" section, just annoying and not very intuitive, Google needs to add a "PURCHASED" section, BAD MOVE GOOGLE!!!!!!
You will need terminal Emulator and ROOT, go to settings\applications\manage apps\google play store\uninstall updates. - DON'T OPEN THE MARKET EITHER!!
If the ROM you installed has the latest play store with these issues, find one that you like or works for you, when you uninstall updates, it restores the version that was pre loaded in the ROM, in my case, after I uninstalled updates, I installed Market 3.4.4, then I open terminal emulator,and type as follows:
su
touch /data/app/com.android.vending-1.apk
chattr +i /data/app/com.android.vending-1.apk
What this does is places a bogus APK file where Android tries installing the newest version of play store. The chattr command disallows Android to update the file.

So, market 3.4.4 is working and showing your purchases and all...i might go ahead and try to install that version then...currently I had to regress back to 2.3.6 which really lacks a lot that I have gotten used to in the market

Works perfect. Just Google version 3.4.7, that one will work just fine.

On a side note, google has basically replied back to me, blaming me for the market not working properly. They say that it's cuz of my custom rom and not any fault of there's, even though my problem exists on the desktop version as well...smh :thumbdown:

[Q] Android Market Problem after flshing to new ROM...Please Help!!

Good day everybody,
I'm running into a very strange problem, and it's my first time to see something like this!!!
From time to time, I'm used to flash my Desire with new ROMs to test them.
What happened this time is strange, after I flash my desire to StarBurst ROM using the normal procedures
(Wipe every thing, then flash from sdCard through recevory)
As uesual, the flash ends deleting all apps and games, so I have to download them agin from the market.
The strange thing is that when I enter the market, I can't see most of the apps and games that were installed on my phone before flashing to new ROM!!
I thought that the ROM is not ok, so I flash again the same ROM my phone used to work with which is the LeeDroid (Froyo 2.2), but the same problem in the market!!!
Right now, I can't find;
Angry birds (all 3 games)
Advance Task Manager
arcMedia Player
eFile (File manager)
.
.
.
.
etc
(allmost most of the apps and games that were installed in my phone before flashing new ROM)
I decided to enter the market website through the browser and try downloading directly from there, and I found under my market account all the apps and games I downloaded!
I noticed that all of them has the download button in blue color instead of green and it shows downloaded! and even if I click on it, nothing starts to download!!!
I'm looking for your help regarding this problem.
Thanks in advance
This is not a proper answer to your problem, but wouldn't be easier to make a backup of your apps using "my backup root"? You can save only the APKs or the APKs + data and you'll restore all your apps with your old settings with just a pair of taps! Really much more easier!

You're absouloutly right!!!
I should do that, but I didn't because I keep delete and download a lot of apps ang games from the market everyday to try and test them because I'm a new android user, so I want to discover the android world.
anyhow, thanks for passing by and still looking for answer
So which ROM are you on?
LeeDroid? Which version?
My first advice would be deleting market cache and data and try to reinstall the apps from market again.
If this doesnt work, set your APN settings to default and try again.
Solved most of my market issues.
Reflashing Gapps could also be a thing you can try.

As i see there is no Google Apps flashable zip.
to reset your APN settings, go to
settings --> wireless and network --> mobile network settings --> there you should have access point names. tap on it, press menu and choose restore defaults. Maybe proir to this you take notes of your settings in case something goes wrong.
Market Enabler /Market Access would also be an option, but i personally dont like it :/
I hope the settings description is right, im using german oxygen rom
thanks god I solved it.
I just downloaded "Market Enabler V 3.0.7" and enabled the market to US T-Mobile
and it works, I can see everythings now.
Thanks for the support guys.
This is the link for the Market Enabler in case somebody needs it.
http://market-enabler.googlecode.com/files/MarketEnabler.apk
Also the App is on the attachments.
Steps of Enabling the Market:
1) Click on Market Enabler icon.
2) Press Settings list.
3) Long press on [us] T-Mobile.
4) Select "fake this provider now".
5) Go back to Actual and select "Save current Settings".
Good luck everybody

-Special thanks-​
* Thanks XDA for getting me here. I have learnt so much from this place!
* credits to my grass roots in the DarkyROM forum and the inspiration for me to launch into the ICS ROM building and addon packages as well as for provision of the latest and greatest via DarkyNOTE for me to be able to do this
*****************************************************************************************************************************************
​-Adobe Flash -
* Latest Adobe Flashplayer App taken from DarkyROM Note download (seemed to me like the latest Samfirmwaree release of the apk to me? Galnex is ASOP so went for the latest option)
* Installs an 8.5Mb package to system so you best be sure you have free space
* No fancy scripts.
* Installs apk file
* Installs two plugins in system
* Install - go to flash player app check the preferences and launch browser website
* In browser settings check the box "Allow Plugins Always"
* Tested on desktop site of YouTube at full screen and plays clips fine all in sync with sound perfect crisp clear.
DOWNLOAD
This is with the larger APK found in SGS 2 (taken from my ex GF stock rooted SGSII using rootbrowser) and Adobe plugins from NOTE (too large to upload via the forum here so drop box here)
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/43088692/Adobe_Flash_Fixer.zip
THIS IS THE ONE I TRIED AND TESTED STRAIGHT UP ^^^
The attached ones are not tested. But when I installed the apks manually and it asked me to replace I clicked yes and installed over the top of the other one and installed 10.1 flash player. I have tested this and it worked the same as the first install.
**If someone would like to flash the smaller zip and tell me if they were effective or not that would be great as it will save space in system for us that are already wary on size
BOTH are CWM flashable zips and install plug ins
Those that can feel free to upload to filesharing sites.
JUST IN CASE YOU BREEZED OVER IT AND BEFORE YOU GET EXCITED, DOWNLOAD, AND FLASH.....HERE IT IS AGAIN FOR YOU: DO A NANDROID BACKUP!
What's ASOP regarding Galnex?
Awsome! Great work.
does it works on CM9 BUILD15?
Thanks man! Sooo happy finally a package working lol
Flashplayer
93 downloads and almost no feedback. What's wrong with people! I guess that means it works or there would be all sorts of complaints, lol!

Flashplayer
This flashed perfectly fine, however, I am missing the Flashplayer Icon in the app drawer, so I cannot visit the website. Is it called something else in the ROM zip? I've gone looking for it to push manually but cannot identify. I went with the larger zip file.

Wha.... I should have looked! It's not in /system/app or /data/app! How can this be? Reflashing now.

i downloaded the file from dropbox in the initial post and followed the instructions.
specifically, i downloaded the zip, went into recovery and flashed it, then rebooted and chose the flash player app. it launched the browser and took me to the adobe settings page, but it was blank. i tried this several times, but nothing changed. when i tried to use site with flash, nothing worked.
am i misinterpreting the instructions somehow?

Flashplayer won't show up in the Market at all for me. I guess this is an issue of the phone being identified as T959 in build.prop? Maybe temporarily installing a modified build.prop that reads Nexus S, then downloading/setting up the app? Has anyone tried this?

[work around] How to get skygo working on rooted ICS roms

This is a work around which will enable you to watch skygo on rooted ICS roms, this is not a perfect solution but if you don’t want to miss the F1 or whatever, it’ll do.
1. Download this tweaked skygo app http://dl.dropbox.com/u/10514900/skygo_test_0.1.2.apk
2. Find your original kernel on intratech’s thread
3. Extract the kernel.7z file you just downloaded until you get the zimage
4. Copy the zimage onto your sd card
5. Open cwm manager, select 'flash kernel' and then select the zimage you just extracted
6. Use temp root remover to hide root
7. Install the skygo app, and you should be able to watch any channel.
If the app hangs on loading 0% ……. 0/100 try clearing app cache and data. If that doesn’t work uninstall skygo and reinstall it and it will work.
You might want to back up your old kernel/zimage before you start so you can easily restore your old kernel.
Like I said it’s not pretty but it works.
Thanks man,
I know there's a sky go thread with well over 500 pages, couldn't be bothered keeping track of it, I'm on stock kernel anyway(LP7) so I just use the 'fixed' app and voodoo unroot. Works a charm.

Press back & reload it again or alternatively wait for about 30 seconds to a minute & it'll clear up.
If not your connection is shabby.
i'm using build 0.1.5 from the big sky go post on here with wanam.stock.LP7, LP7 stock kernel & rootkeeper works a charm.
I can only get Sky News to work using the standard ICS build & unroot, I have cleared the cache & re-installed the app, not working.
Any further ideas ?

I updated my kernel from Intratech's list & it works fine - I don't remember installing a custom kernel, maybe I did.
Very simple solution, thanks.
1) Thanks for kanging my workaround from the other topic
2) you no longer need to use a pure stock kernel, you can use any kernel that has ro.secure=1
e.g. Siyah Kernel or CF-Root (both of these kernels have had adb hacked too so you don't lose out by having ro.secure=1)
I'm guessing you have to have a subscription?? Lol

Try some different kernels. I couldn't get it to work with CF or Neak. Tried speedmod and it works fine with temp unroot.
EDIT: It was working fine yesterday but stays on the loading screen today!
EDIT 2: Ok, I've got it working again. I believe the problem was superuser. One of the versions of Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper required superuser to be installed (as opposed to supersu) and I believe when I uninstalled superuser again it left some traces which Voodoo wasn't hiding and skygo was seeing. I've done a full wipe and installed a fresh copy of Omega rom, then speedmod kernel, then restored everything with Titanium back up and its working again. Which is good since I've got 3 months of free Sky!
I noticed there is a new update for Sky Go and was wondering if anyone has "fixed" the new apk to remove the version checking yet.
can someone post intratech’s link, I cannot find it after I searched the forum?

[MOD] Google+ Locations Map Fix v1 [12/07/13]

Presenting to you my incredibly simple fix for the "Google+ Locations" Grey background maps issue that most of us have.
What is the problem?
Google+ Locations feature is replacing Latitude but for many of us this feature does not work. It fails to load the map leaving us with pictures of our contacts on a grey background - basically making the feature worthless to us all.
Whilst the fix itself is very simple (more info at bottom of this post), I know a lot of people here like things to be super easy, so I made a .zip for you all to flash.
Instructions
- Flash like any normal update.zip
- Reboot
In the unlikely event you find that the zip doesn't appear to work, or causes other Google+ issues then wipe app data (and cache) for Google+ and reboot.

V1 - 12/07/2013

Didn't work either way for me.
Tried your flash zip and after rebooting Google+ updated itself by Play probably reversing the changes.
That wouldn't reverse the changes, try to flash it a second time, one person said it worked the second time (everyone else was fine the first time)
Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk 4 Beta
Nope still doesn't work.
Reverted back to a previous nandroid (InsertCoin) backup prior to any Google+ modding.
Flashed your zip, rebooted and Google+ was no longer installed.
Had to re-install Google+ from Play store.
Weird you are the only one who has had issues. You were not wiping cache when you flashed it were you?
Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk 4 Beta
No just a straight flash and reboot
Interesting. All the zip does it put the app and libs in the correct /system/ directory, there it no reason why it shouldnt work.
You could do it manually if you wanted.

I tried manually first time and still had a grey screen

You will only see people on your map if they are sharing their position with a circle you are in (on google+).

finally got this working...
After moving the files you need to manually clear Google+ data and then it works.

Weird, never had to do that for me (or anyone else who did my testing).
I will add a note to the OP.

I tried to do manually. Moving the "com.google.android.apps.plus-2.apk" to /system/app results in the error:
failed on 'com.google.android.apps.plus-2.apk' - Cross-device link
This is on Nexus4 running CM10.1.2-mako

Alright,
I'm sure you arrived at this solution quite independently as It becomes kinda obvious once you have a proper look into it but I sorted this out weeks ago
https://plus.google.com/u/0/102811685695605940714/posts/5B8gYHciXDe [ Posts in the name of Steve Jones, ]
I made available a new gapps packages for fresh roms here http://goo.im/devs/trevd/gapps/gapps-jb-20130615-signed.zip this includes Google+ as a system app.
The problem you'll get now is that the original one installed from the PlayStore has been updated hence why the apk is now at -2. So at the moment if folks have that one installed in /data/ they should be able to flash your system app version with out removing anything ( in theory ) This might only work until the next update.
Probably the easiest approach is to uninstall using play. Flash a update zip which installs it as a system app.
Just My Thoughts :good:
@sashykanth use "busybox mv" to move files
Hack On!

Thanks for this, I hadn't seen your G+ Post before today. The new Gapps package will certainly be useful for roms which require Gapps.

[ROM] Google Edition 4.2.2 [Clean][Slim][280MB]

Deprecated. My 4.3 (with Mobeam support!) can be found HERE.
This ROM is more or less a debloated stock GE. No mods really. Just a clean ROM so you can add to it as you wish.
Features
Deodexed
Zip-aligned
Rooted
Auto-loki (For AT&T I337 only)
Removed all apps available in the Play Store except for Google Keyboard
Removed some Samsung bloat
Reboot menu
Play Store 4.3.11
Google Keyboard 1.0.1870.703320 (2013-06-21)
AT&T Hot Spot auto-login (For AT&T I337 only)
Google Wallet works out-of-the-box
Notes
This ROM uses a Sprint (L720) branded build.prop to make Wallet work out-of-the-box. There should be no problems with using a different branding from the phone you actually have. If you want to rebrand it to T-Mobile (M919), flash the attached build.prop but Wallet may stop working. To keep Wallet working with the T-Mobile build.prop, use Nottach but some people have reported problems with Nottach.

I have AT&T, not T-Mobile, so I can't even test this ROM. I look forward to the feedback. I hope it's fully functional. If not, I will pull it.

So far so good.
Tried to flash through CWM and got stuck in bootloop, installed through TWRP and its going pretty smoothly.
Love how minimal it is, pretty snappy.
Haven't tested wallet functionality, but will test tomorrow.
Will update on pros and cons tomorrow also.
Thanks for your work man, awesome.

Reboot.
Updated with stock kernel and new Play Store.
Rooting method had to be changed so uninstall all your superuser apps before flashing.
This ROM is by far the closest thing ever to a nexus device. Everything works so far out the box wallet hotspot who cares if it thinks I'm using a sprint phone. The biggest thing to remember is it runs much better with a total wipe before install. Great work.

Wipe?
Do you need to wipe before you flash this rom?
Wipe cache and dalvik cache. Wiping data might be necessary if you run into problems. I recommend wiping data if you're coming from a non-GE ROM. There's just too many differences. In that case, use Titanium Backup to backup user apps.

I would have done it nevertheless, stops potential issues, and gets superuer and similar apps off. Thanks for the fast reply.

Why do you want to uninstall SuperSu? Unfortunately, with the stock kernel, you can't just install the superuser app of your choice as you could with modded kernels.

Well it says to uninstall supersu before flashing. But I got it flashed and ruining smooth!
Sent from my SPH-L720 using xda app-developers app
I was thinking the same, but did a complete wipe, that would rid all apps. Like you after a wipe, flashed and all worked perfect.
