.gapps constantly crashing - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

So when I am just doing whatever, my phone locks up and a message saying (somgthing).gapps has either stopped working or has crashed. It happens typically once a day. I can be on Facebook, or the Google play store and when I tap a button, that happens. Any idea? I am stock ROM, but rooted. I'm assuming you guys will need more info, I'm just not sure what to say that could help.

More info is definitely needed.
1.) What ROM and Kernel are you using?
2.) Have you done any modifications to the said ROM or kernel?
3.) What gapps package are you using?

Try clearing data for Google framework

If you have CWM installed try fixing permissions.

Go into settings
Accounts and sync
Find your Google account
Turn off Internet sync
Give it a try it worked for me!

This. Try Google first, there are many threads on this already. Internet sync worked for me so try that before you start clearing all sorts of data like me lol

I'll give that a shot and see if it crashes anymore. What does that disable? Chrome syncing I'm assuming? I guess just the tabs?

Thank you! Any idea what that even does? Since I disabled Internet sync I haven't had the .gapps crash once!

Google Sign In Issue After Flashing Theme

I installed a green theme tonight from one of the posts in this thread. I am presently running Darkside Evolution V8. I previously installed a red theme from the same post so I know it works, at least before. Tonight I installed the theme, flashed DS cache wipe, reboot. Phone says "android is updating" so, ok. After it reboots I get the following message (see screen shot) I click the button to try and sign in and I get the other message (screen shot) I tried rebooting, flashing Gapps, clearing data from account services. Any thoughts on why a theme would have caused that? Or maybe an underlying issue? My phone works fine btw. I can use gmail, playstore, everything. I just get that awful notification once in awhile. I Terribly annoying! Thanks so much for any help!

I was waiting for a thread like this. Don't worry my friend. Its been reported over multiple ROMs and devices through out XDA. You were just a victim of circumstance. Its an issue with Google servers, your good :thumbup:

OK, so what your saying is that the theming and the sign in issues were just coincidence? I guess that makes sense as theming shouldn't affect your Google account in any way. Is this a recently developing issue or a known issue Google just needs to deal with? Well, thanks!

Can't connect to Play Store?

Every time I open the Google Play Store app, this is what I get any one know how to fix this? I already cleared data for Google services framework and for the app itself, rebooted, and nada.
Google is having periodic server issues, the problem is probably not you
The only thing that's worked for me is to delete your Google account from sync, then reinstall it (give it a couple minutes to do it's thing), then clear data from Google play store in app manager. Then *whalla* works again. Seriously. Haven't had a problem since.

Hmm.. Clear google services framework and google play then reboot?

If you are using manual time settings, change it to auto.
had this problem a while ago, I've been running an SSH tunnel to get to Gstore (no google store access for my country), and at some point it stopped even running at all, always crashing
the usual remedy is to do the following :
go into airplane mode
go into the app manager
look for google play : force stop/clear data&cache
look for google framework : force stop/clear data&cache
delete your google account from device
restart
once reboot is done, exit airplane mode, re-add your google account and try again, this worked for me once, then was useless
the next fix I tried was almost the same, except I replaced my own ssh tunnel with a vpn service (psiphon 3 in my case) and never had any problems since then
hope this helps

Solved? If not, did you update it? Go to app manager and uninstall update.

Tried everything from the moon to the sun.
Error 493 or 491, package is not valid, etc.
I've tried everything and then some. Removed googlw account, reboot, add google account. Cleared data and cache on playstore. Uninstalled updates. Cleared data on services framework. Rebooted, rebooted, and rebooted some more.
NOTHING is working. What in the hell is going on?????
P.s. even tried cache and dalvik clear tgrough recovery. Even flashed a new rom, factory reset, all that. When I say I tried everything from the m9on and sun, I mean it.

You haven't modified your DPI settings or are using a ROM which requires some sort of modded Play store are you? Or changed build.prop settings?

Nope. Same problem on Virgin Rom, Golden Eye Rom (where I noticed the problem), then Darth stalker ROM.
All have the same issue. Even factory resetted on all ROMs. Same issue.
Here's the kicker. I'll try something new that I haven't tried before, then 1 app that was giving me problems will actually download. Then to definitely make sure if it's been fixed, try downloading something like Rom toolbox, same error message.
This happened ever since Virgin Rom, and really started taking effect once I flashed Goldeneye ROM.
Not saying those ROMs are the root cause, but just giving you guys a more clear picture of when this started happening.
If anything, it happened ever since I re rooted my phone.
Remove your Google account and re add it. Also recommend clearing data for Google play services, play store, and Google services framework as mentioned above. Do all this at once then reboot. Should fix it. At least it did for me.

Google now no longer does the following:

So for a little while now I've noticed Google now is no longer doing the things it use to:
1. It use to notify me how many minutes home is from my current location. It no longer does.
2. It use to notify me how many minutes an appointment was and when I should leave to be on time. It no longer does
3. Listen to/play <song title> use to play music on my device or YouTube. This no longer works.
Anybody know why these stopped working?
I'm on stock (Rogers ) ROM with all apps up to date.

Just an idea, maybe you did this but if not its worth a try. Go into settings/application manager/google and hit force stop. Now clear cache, data, and defaults. Now hit uninstall updates, and when done re-install the updates and run app. This should give you a fresh start I believe and this could allow you to set all your options over and give you the origional operation you had before. Im not a pro so I cant guarentee this but it cant hurt, its not a dangerous operation anyway. Good luck!
