[Q] Google Now error for email operations - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

I am having a very specific error with Google Now. It only happens when I use the "note to self" feature or "send email to...". The bar will start to load, but as soon as the message should be sent (using Gmail, of course), I get the following error: "Unfortunately, Google Search has stopped". Again, this only happens with Google Now operations that require the sending of email. Every other Google Now operation works just fine. Gmail is also working perfectly.
ROM: AOKP(Jellybean 4.1.2)Task & Ktoonsez (11/10) (AT&T/Rogers)
GAPPS: the one listed in the OP (gapps-aokp-JB-10.12.2012.zip)
What I have tried:
- Fix permissions on CWM right after installing GAPPS
- Clearing data/cache on Google Search
Is there anything else I can do?

This is because Gmail is not signed our something of that nature, there is signed gmail available on xda which will fix it for you. Search for it

Although this reply did not help directly (very few posts for "signed gmail"), the search itself led me down some interesting paths. I found the solution to this problem, which I suspect should be happening to most people with this ROM and GAPPS.
The problem is that this ROM includes Gmail 4.2. Google Play store does not recognize it as an installed app, and clearly Google Search does not know how to communicate with it. So, using ES File Explorer (with root access), I deleted Gmail2.apk from /system/app and then installed the official Gmail app from Google Play store. That solved the problem.
To be extra careful, I made sure to force stop the Gmail app, cleared all data, and then disabled it before I deleted the APK. Dont know if this was all necessary, but since it is my wife's phone, I decided to be really careful to avoid getting yelled at. :laugh:

[Q] Unable to install Apps from market

I am unable to install apps from the market. I can access the market and select the apps but all I get is starting downloads which doesn't change even if I leave for hours. I have WI-FI enabled and can access the web with no problems. Here is what I have tried already.
Clear Data in Downloader,
Clear Data and Cache in market
Factory reset
Flashed to CyanogenMod 7
and I still cannot download any apps.
If you have s-off you could try deleting the market.apk file and then reinstalling from a non market source? If you search xda I'm sure I remember several threads about this.
I had this problem a few times. Have you recently changed your Gmail (If you use Gmail) address from @googlemail to @gmail? This is what caused the problem for me and many others...
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
I never did work out what was causing the problem. I installed CyanogenMod 7 and all is work again.
Yea, sometimes just a reflash fixes the problem. I also found that, sometimes, the download would just finish but never actually install - almost as if the .apk downloaded but the Market Process just never actioned the new .apk to open, so it just sat in /cache until the next reboot, doing nothing.
log in to google talk...i think that should solve the issue.

Google Play - Cannot install Apps "Error processing purchase"

When I click, Accept & Download when trying to install an app from the phone, I get, "Error processing purchase". This happens on free apps & paid, I tested.
Also, if I'm on the web version of Play Store, and select install, nothing happens.
Any suggestions?
Have you tried clearing app cache and data?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
No, I read some stuff about that, but not sure how to go about doing this?
Settings - apps - Google play - make sure everything is clear.

Found the settings, but still having issue.
There are a few different things you can try:
1. Clear cache/data on just Downloads + Download Manager.
2. Clear cache/data on just Google Play Store.
3. Clear cache/data on Play Store + Downloads + Download Manager.
4. Uninstall Play Store updates.
5. Wait a few days (sometimes if it's on the server side things just need to timeout and then they'll work again).
If those fail there is one other I stumbled upon when I was getting Error -101 trying to download/update apps (I also had incorrect Installed Apps numbers showing) after the IMM76I update:
6. Remove your Google account from Accounts & Sync. Readded and everything should show up and work again!
That even fixed a FC I was getting from gapps related to Browser Sync. Worth a shot! Good luck!
If I select Uninstall Updates, it seems to uninstall Google Play. Is there a download to get it back?
Nevermind, I see what the deal is,
uninstalling the market actualizations and leting it update again solved the proble for me

[Q] Google Play Store installation problem

I have a Samsung Galaxy Ace S5380i running on android 2.3.6. I have already rooted my mobile and transferred most of the applications on SD card to clear some internal space. I actually also deleted Google Play services, Google Play Books and Gmail as I am not using them. All other apps I re-installed such as Google Maps are OK apart from Google Play Store. It was initially showing No connection Retry.
I tried some methods posted on the website but nothing works. I tried clearing data and force-stopping the app, then reboot but after a while the app crashed when I tried downloading an application. I got this message: "The application Google Play Store (process com.android.vending) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again"
I wiped also cache through the system reboot but I had the same problem but also sth strange happened, Google Play Books app re-appeared in my menu.
I tried also deleting hosts.txt from \system\etc folder and even editing it as suggested (There was only one line on my hosts.txt: 127.0.0.1 localhost):
127.0.0.1 localhost
#74.125.93.113 android.clients.google.com
but I had the same problem after a while.
I finally tried changing my Google account password and this helped only for a little bit as I got the same message. I get this message even when I am trying to download an app from the web version of Google play.
Can somebody help me please? Any ideas?

Play Store needs the Google Play services (GMS) & Google Services Framework (GSF)!
You deleted them, so its your own fault.
Reinstall Play Services should fix it.
restore stock rom using odin and dont delete the files madron said and you should be good to go!
Problem solved

I didn't uninstall GSF, just GPS. However I found the solution to my problem. I downloaded GAPPS and flashed them, thus removed previous installation of Google Play Store and the rest of gapps. Immediately after rebooting my mobile, it started looking for updates. I uninstalled again the Google Play Services and everything works fine just to free some more space. The only difference is now that Google Play Store is installed in the internal phone memory and I don't intend to move it to the SD card again.

TIP: if you struggle with memory problem then you can move some essential apps like Google Play Store, G Maps, YouTube etc.
Just when you update an app from Play Store, lets say you update G Maps, you got 2 Google Maps in your device that lack your memory.
The first one Google Maps is in your system by the Rom and the second one is in your Root "Data/App/" (which is your Internal Memory).
So I suggest you to move all essential apps from Data/App to System/App and remove old apps which are outdated in your system. After that reboot and enjoy with your free memory.
Whatsapp will not work on my galaxy ace, it is in a perpetual loop asking if it can backup to google drive via my gmail account. I repeatedly answer yes, but then it asks me to install Google Play Store. I thought GPS was installed - checked applications and yes it is. I try to "skip" this step as this is an option, but just go round in a perpetual loop with whatsapp. I have uninstalled and reinstalled whatsapp - several times now for it to repeatedly ask for me to install Google Play Store. In desperation, I have just uninstalled GPS, and am now trying to re-install it.
I keep getting messages that "this browser is no longer supported" and a link to "Google Play Store app" which fails and connection times out every single time. What do I do? (Step by step instructions required!)

[SOLVED]Google Play 403 Error

Hi
I have two accounts that I use on my devices. On one account, I face 403 error, this application can not be downloaded for some apps but if I download the same by swaping accounts, I seem to download fine!
I remember using contact fix from google play due to problems with contact sync. Contact sync did its job!
It was a known problem in ROM that I flashed in one of my device; however, afterwards, I seem to get this error on specific apps like Viber on every device I use.
WHAT WORKED FOR ME
-Delete all gmail accounts from settings
-Clear app data of google play store, google framework, play services,google account manager from settings=> All apps
- Downgrade play store by uninstalling google play store apps
- delete host file from device/etc/host.text (Needs root)
- restart
-try to add account again from settings (not from Google play)
- see if google play works or gives no connection error
-in case of no connextion error, delete google account and add again!
- Works like a charm!

Some Google Services Refuse to Sync

Hello Everyone. I have a Samsung Captivate Glide i927 (AT&T). It was running Omni ROM 4.4 but since the latest Google Play Services update keeps 'crashing' the phone (multiple pop-ups stating that Google Play Services has stopped), I have decided to go back to stock ICS 4.0.4
The problem now is that my Google account isn't syncing properly. My contacts, calendar, Keep notes are unable to sync. I keep getting an error that states that 'Sync is having problems.' I also can't connect to the Google account from certain apps like WhatsApp & SwiftKey keyboard and as a result, I can neither back my chats to Google Drive nor download my customs words for the SwiftKey keyboard app. I can however use the Google Drive app normally. The Play Store also works properly.
I have done everything that I can think of (& read online). They are:
1. Deleting the Google Play Services cache.
2. Emptied the phone's cache. I also formatted it & the Dalvik cache in CWM.
3. Removed my Google account from the phone. Restarted & added the Google account.
4. Reset the phone to factory settings.
5. Re-flashed the official/stock 4.0.4 ROM by using Odin.
6. Changed my Google account password to 'force' everything to 'reset' and resync.
7. I have added a hash prefix to the localhost IP address in the hosts file in the 'etc' folder. I have also deleted it.
Syncing still doesn't work for those services. I am at my wit's end. Please can anyone suggest a solution?
Thanks.
