Google play issues. Missing apps... - Nexus 4 Themes and Apps

Hi all
Having an issue that's been developing over the course of 2 days ... I've slowly been losing apps in Google play... I normally have 70 apps showing as installed.
Earlier today I had low 60s... Now I'm sitting at 39...
I have wiped cache, dalvik etc. Fixed permissions. Cleared app data. Even tried forcing them in titanium.
Idk what else to do here... As a result I'm not getting updates to my apps...
Anyone have any ideas?

That's super strange. What ROM are you using? Have you messed with any system files and/or flashed anything with an "alpha" tag on it?

PA latest 2.99
Franco test kernel r47
Other then that I don't mess with system files...
Actually. I think I know what it is... I changed the DPI etc on Google play... I wonder if that did it...
Give me a bit to test

I don't know what the source of your problem is, but my advice would be to try a new ROM (or a fresh install of the same one - latest version if possible). And while you're at it try using these optimized gapps: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2012857
I've never had a problem with apps missing, could it be malware?

Change play store and Google play services to standard DPI in paranoid settings, then wipe the data and cache for those apps then reboot once or twice and all apps will be back

I think he meant, that you should wipe the play store and the play services and not all your other apps. Besides did you try Market doctor that comes with Titanium backup?

Under apps tab in paranoid preferences, change only play store app and play services app to the default DPI, then wipe they're data and reboot

Can you see apps as downloadable via pc login to store? If you can then you have a problem with your store app in device. Otherwise it may be some country/carrier restriction. ie, I couldn't install maps and navigation apps from store cause device isn't officially launched in my country yet. PA gapps solved my problem with apps

Market force closing

All of a sudden today, anytime I log into the Market and then click an actual app, it crashes. Is this a system wide Android Market down thing today ?

Hm, just noticed that I have the same issue as the op; any clue anyone..? Cleared the data on Google Services Framework and can't log in to the market either.
P.S. Apps install just fine from the web market to the phone.
Need to push this up; I've now flashed a new rom after full wipes and it's still there.
Gummy's latest & latest trinity kernel, gsm o2 Germany.
same here AOKP M3
edit:
if clearing cache
setting another zone with MarketEnabler
and resetting language to US doesn't work - reinstall gapps.

Can't purchase apps through Google Play anymore

I noticed since last night that I can not purchase any app in Google Play anymore. I can still download free apps but when I try to purcahse and download an app, it give error " an error occured. Please try again".
I updated my phone yesterday to AOKP B31 and Franco kernal r121 last night.
I will appreciate your help.
It's currently a common problem so you are not the only one. These are the fixes:
1 go to all apps under settings an look around until you see play store and google services framework clear caches and data on both and reboot your system
Then open up the terms and try downloading it again after 5 minutes of waiting
2 remove your google account and add it again
Please post your results here

I have already tried step one and did not work for me. Few days early I was getting error 921, at that time it worked after clearing data from google play and google framework.

Yes, I fixed the issue by doing clean flash of from 31. Previously, I did not do reset data. Aften clean all good.
Hmmm I've had the same problem persist from Build 31 into build 32. It's really irritating.
Fixed on my RAZR.
I'm running Eclipse 1.3 on the Droid Razr. I had this problem since I flashed the ROM 2 days ago. I could purchase and push apps from my pc but got the error on my phone. I eventually started looking around the net for a fix.
Using TiBu I:
Wiped data from Google Framework and Google Play Store.
Deleted Google Play Store.
Restored my backup of Google Play Store version 3.5.16 (App + Data).
That fixed my problem.
Hope this helps.
Run ROM Toolbox. Under app manager -> All apps check if Google play is red or white in color. If it's white long press and select convert to system app. That should fix it.
Btw, ROM Toolbox is free on the Market

I've been having same issue with Gummy rom, using the inverted (black) market app. When I reflash gapps back to regular market it works, so i think it has something to do with the inverted market app. Are you using the inverted market?

[Q] App Backup not showing in Market. Help Please!

Hi I used Titanium Backup to back up my apps and some of them arent showing up in my playstore. The apps arent listed under installed (even though they are installed on phone) or under all in my apps. this is a problem because id like the apps to be updated. Also my paid apps arent added to market either. if i want them to be added i have to download via playstore wich means repaying for them.
is there a way to link the apps to the market instead of downloading 47 apps again. or is there another way to update these apps as this is what i want to do.
thanks guys
What rom are you on? Is it showing any apps at all? I've seen it on AOKP where it doesn't show any installed apps in the play store. Clearing data from play store and Google services framework then rebooting (maybe a few times) fixed it.

Open titanium backup. Hit menu/market tools/market doctor and follow the prompts.

flashable modded market for changed DPI.

This is a modded market for people who want to change DPI from stock. I didn't mod it. I took the apk from LCD modder and made a flashable zip for you guys.

Pretty sure that's a paid app, so wouldn't this be against the rules?

I don't think so because it is a freely available apk. Anyone could mod it. If I had not disclosed the source you wouldn't know that's where I got it. MODS please correct me if I'm wrong about that.

What exactly is the problem? Try clearing data on Google services framework.

You need to revert to 240 dpi, clear data on both play store and Google services framework, reboot and try play store again.

Certain apps missing in play store (cm9?)

OK so, ever since I upgraded to CM9 months ago, I have found that certain apps are not available to me from the play store. For example, when I type in Youtube, it doesn't even show up as a option to download. When I go to the play store on my desktop, it either says that the app is not compatible with my device, or my device is greyed out in the drop down menu. This is true for several other apps that I have tried downloading. I tried clearing the play store data, but I'm still limited in the apps that show up upon searching. I was able to find a youtube apk elsewhere, but am wondering what the fix is for this cause there are other apps that I want...like zen bound. I just upgraded to alpha 6...same problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I have put up with this issue for long enough.
I haven't had that issue and am on cm9 and was also on aokp. Which cm9 did you download and from where?

CM9 was from here. It may have nothing to do with CM9, I just can't figure out why so many apps either don't show up at all upon search (e.g., zen bound 2), or they show up in the store, but say that they are not compatible with my device. I though it might be a screen density thing, but when I upgraded to alpha 6, the screen density went back to 240 and the play store is still missing apps like youtube.
Try clearing all data for the play store and then reflashing gapps...?

That did it! Thanks button has been pushed.
Clearing play store data then re flashing gapps did the trick (i.e., zen bound 2 and youtube apps were showing up in play store). However, I woke up this morning and the play store is doing the same thing as before (missing certain apps). For example, I type in "zen bound 2" and get a white screen with the "No results found". I tried the same technique again (as suggested by shultz) and this time it doesn't work. So I'm back to the same problem. Any ideas on what the culprit is here? should I be posting this in the CM9 thread?

yes, I live at 190, but went back to 240 just in case that was the problem (is there a better setting i can try?). I let rom toolbox reset my phone after and i still couldn't get zen bound 2. By the way the above trick (clearing play store data and flashing gapps) briefly worked and i was able to download zen bound 2, but by the time the game was finished downloading, the play store stopped working correctly again....and so I have zen bound 2 purchased, but it won't let me install it cause it says my device is not compatible. This is aggravating.
