Stock ROM. Rooted. Some apps will not update, but others will. The ones that will not update just say 'Starting download...' when they try to update. It's not a particular type of app that will not update either; some are VZW apps, Google apps, other downloaded apps. Tried clearing the caches on these apps, still no worky. Also, my phone never switched from the Market to Google Play. I assume my Inc2 would update to Play since my Inc1 did when I had it. Tried a tutorial I found about updating Google Music and some other stuff, still no worky. Already searched for these problem to no avail. KTHXBYE

Hey,
I'm running the HTC sense UI, that came with my phone, which I haven't rooted.. And I would like to know if anyone could tell me how can I update programs that came preinstalled..? Because they don't show up in the market, and I would like the new updated google maps, that just came out.. in settings->about->system software update I've tried checking for updates, but still nothing..
Thanks for any help you can provide me
Yeah sometimes the market doesn't detect the apps that are already installed on my phone. I usually just click install even if it doesn't say update. Have you tried just installing the Google Maps application from the market? I believe the updated version came out yesterday.

Sometimes the market doesn't detect all of my apps as well... The fix is to clear the market cache!
clearing market cache didn't do it.. and oh well.. now i can't even find the maps on the market anymore.. so who knows what's going on ..
This happens to me too on every single ROM I've tried (stock, Cyanogen, Virtuous). There's always several apps that the market doesn't detect me as having, but the one that always seems consistent is Maps. I generally just install Maps from the market manually. This puts an extra Maps applicaton in the /data folder even though Maps already exists in the /system folder. Since I have a rooted device, I then manually delete the maps apk from the system folder.
Super simply fix. Just download aTrackdog by a0soft. It will detect every app you have installed and check to see if there are any updates. If there are you can download them either from the market or the developers website (if one exists). It will even track apps that aren't on the market, like Wireless Tether. And you don't need root for it. Should do the trick, hope it helps.
I can no longer download apps from the google play store. I press download, it says "Downloading...", the loading bar has small lines going across it, but progress never starts, and it sits there like this. Does anyone know how to fix this? I am running Tiny CM10.1.
My problems with the play store were solved when I wiped and reinstalled from scratch. This a sudden thing, or have you made any changes lately?
Others have also reported success by going in to Apps Management and choosing "Clear Data" for the Google Play Store. (There's also a Google Play Services in the list...not sure if it's necessary to clear that, too.)
I have had this problem somewhat recurringly on this rom, it didn't work for a while, then I cleared play store, download manager, basically anything with Google in the name. Other times this fixed it, but this time it wouldn't work even after a restart. I ended up getting it to work by rebooting to recovery, wiping cache, and restarting.

I Just had the same problem. Here is how I fixed it,
- Uninstalled updates for Google Play
- I added a New Google Account.
- I Then signed into the new Google Account, Then Sign Into Your Main Account
And "BOOM" problem solved.
I never had this problem until recently and it's happened several times now. It seems to happen after a major change to my system ie rom update or multiple app updates or Tibu restore I not really sure. I tried several methods of un-installing & re-installing the play store app and wiping it's cache and data with varying degrees of success.
What has worked every time without fail is a complete cache wipe with "CacheMate for root users" app.

Due some problems with my HTC ONE (M7) i had to return it to the store and use my backup phone (HTC ONE V).
It has been a while since i used it, but before switching to my new phone, everything worked fine.
After more then a year, i need to re-use my HTC ONE V and i want to make the best of it till i get my other one back.
But after trying to install some apps i bumped in to some problems. When i looked up the apps in the Play Store, i didn't get the apps i searched for.
Later it asked me to do updates on the apps that were still on it (since they haven't been updated for over a year) but when i pressed to update them, nothing happened.
When i noticed that, i wanted to try updating them manually but when i opened up the app page's, it told me my device isn't compatible (which is weird since the apps are already on the phone).
I tried a method i see a lot with Google Play issues which is deleting the Google Play updates so it goes back to the state it was in when i got the phone and letting it update again, but it doesn't update anymore.
When i look at my devices on Google Play in my browser, i see the phone standing in the list but it says it hasn't been used for over a year. My email is linked to my Google Play on my phone so i tried installing apps by pressing install on the browser version but again nothing happened.
Is there a way to fix this problem?
I am considering doing a factory reset if there is no solution but i would like to avoid that.

What if you try to:
* delete Google Play data?
* install the newest gapps compatible with the ROM you are currently using? Wipe Cache and Dalvik after that.
* update Google Play App in the first place?
hello
I'm having trouble setting up my tab s.
After a factory reset, everytime I try to log in to my google account, google play services crashes and I can't setup my tablet.
Any ideas? I tried downloading the latest playstore apk, but no dice..
Thanks
Keep us posted cause I had the exact same problem. I factory reset and the Google stuff won't even pop up. I try to log into the play store and Google services crashes. I even flashed a fresh install with odin and the same thing happens. I did get it to work after updating with a ota. As soon as I did all the Google stuff was fine. I also have a back up so I rooted and and restored from the backup with flashier. I've searched and tried so many things and nothing else seemed to work.
Hi,
Anyone getting an error on Google Play Store installing apps or app updates? Some weeks ago one of my installed apps had an update and when installing it gave an error -- no error code as far as I could see. The update continued to be listed every time I went to the Store and stayed there. Finally I decide to uninstall / install the app hoping it would fix the issue. But no, then I couldn't install the app all together, producing the same error. I've contact the developers and after some weeks they replied saying it was an issue on Google's Store. I've reach Google which after investigating, are not aware of any similar problem. I've also done all the procedures recommended in such situation like cleaning cache, data, ... from Google Store; removing and adding back Google ids on the devices, nothing. Unable to solve this I finally gave up some days back.
Yesterday, the problem started with another app update. I see the update, click install, it downloads, starts installing, gives an error and goes back to be listed in the available updates...
Any help welcome.
Thanks.
Same thing happened to me, the reason is Google Play, I uninstalled Google play since my Chinese version didnt come with one, I then had to use a third party installer and installed the newest Google play and everything went back to normal and was able to install all the apps I havent been able to in the last 2 months but didnt care enough to figure it out until last week when I got fed up.
Hi,
Thanks for the inputs.
I've the EVR-L29 running Google services so I can only remove the updates from the Store, data and cache; which I did but didn't solve the problem. I also removed Google user, reboot, and added it back. Issue still persists...
I've contact Google and seems they are not aware of any similar problem. At least that was the feedback I received.
I do see a couple of comments of other users of the app I can't install with the same problem; someone with a Xiaomi and another user with a Huawei phone.
Any ideas? Thanks.
The only thing I can go by is what occurred to me I couldn't install chipotle app or anything, it took uninstalling it, I do know there is a command to uninstall apps and there was an app as well, been awhile but if memory serves me right, the app you used to find the location was App inspector then you had to uninstall it through and adb command line. I would check to see what version of Google Play you have installed. The version I installed that fixed my issue was version 25.4.20-21
