[Q] Note II - Google Play Store Update Issues - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm using Note II running on Stock JB 4.1.2 XXDMB2 (Rooted) & Simplistic Framework 3.5.1 Flashed.
Every time I try to update any App in the Google Play Store, let it be 1MB or 100MB the entire size of the App always gets downloaded rather than the partial updates Google had introduced. This had started happening recently, I'm not sure why Play Store App updates are behaving like Pre Android 2.2. Anyways my Play Store Build version is 3.10.14. Anyone who knows why this is happening on my phone can you please explain it to me?

Same here. I didn't knew of a partial update system. I don't even think it's possible because it's an apk not unpacked file.
It might have been about other apps like asphalt.

No, I'm very sure these partial updates used to work fine couple of days ago, if there is a new update for an app of size 23MB but if the updates are for 2MB then only the 2MB will get downloaded and the App will be updated to the latest version but recently all I'm getting are the full updates its kinda annoying after getting used to the partial updates. Anyone have any idea why?

Market App itself not updated.

Hi all,
I have a problem w my phone as the market app is not updated( the one w new layout).
I have friends who SGS2 who did nth about it and receive the update. So what do i do abt it??

Yea, me too. I'm also puzzled as well since we both have the same version i9100M from Canada but his got updated to the new market but mine hasn't. Hopefully someone here has a trick to make it autoupdate.
I deleted market data and cache and after a few minutes it got updated by itself, but the latest version is laggy and buggy, prompts you for updates when there are no updates and updates your apps couple of times to the same version. I got back to the older version, faster and more stable.

I have a SGS2 whereas my wife has SGS1. I didn't receive the market update so far, but she did. I have no idea the reason for that, but I liked the new layout (although I think that improvements can, and should, be made), and at least on her phone it seems that it doesn't lag at all.
Lets wait, or wipe the cache, as said above.
Or search xda and there's a download for the new 3.1.x build.

Is it possible to update market if not rooted & on the stock rom? I have 2.3.6 market & on stock 2.3.3. I tried to clear the data & cache but that doesn't update the market, still on 2.3.6.
Pls utilize the below link for installing the market update custom.

you have to enable the "unknown sources" to install.
Also, if someone knows how to revert back to the old market pls inform.

I am in the UK and my Market hasn't updated.. and I guess I am better that way as lot of people seem to be complaining about the new layout and stuff ( on unofficial 2.3.4 not rooted)

After being on the new market for a long time I went back to 2.3.6 because that actually works! The new one was so extremely laggy and unresponsive.
Did like the looks but the speed of the original/old one makes up for it.

Been on 3.1.3 for a while, just deleted data today for the Market App and it changed to 3.1.5
New market is really slow on my Dlink router until I changed to a Linksys. Both with same settings. New market has bugs where it won't load nor install apps.

Yup, 3.1.5 here too after deleting data. But no improvements or changes, still laggy when using phone data, pretty decent on wi-fi though.
no matter how often I delete my data, the market won't update

I notice that there is something called as DigiClock installed after market was updated. I didn't install this and I can't find this program anywhere and can't find a place to uninstall either. Uninstalled market updates, but it is now showing up even in the old market as well.
Got this update too but I feel it's just fine, however I don't use it so often.
hi, i just kind of replace the market.apk from blapkmarket... and instead got market that does not run... would someone be nice enough to pm me market.apk link?
thanks!

google play store

I just flashed Minitab onto my Note 2 and now the Google Play store is telling most of the apps I need are not compatible. Is there a working around other than finding what I need online. Im really digging this ROM but its useless without good apps.
I just came off that one...In the apps there is one, I can't remember the name, but it allows you to fool google about what kind of phone you're using and lets you download all your apps...
I presume that ROM changes to a non stock dpi.
DPI incompatibility. You'll need to reset your device to stock dpi, reboot, clear Play data, reboot, and open Play again.... Then change back to your custom dpi.

Install the xposed framework and the multidpi google play module.
I cannot find the thread for the module, so here it is in my dropbox.
On August 29th at 02:14 my Note2 will become self-aware

I believe "Market Helper" is the app you are looking for to 'trick' the play store into thinking you are on a different device

Need help with Google Play compatibility!

I have the t-mobile samsung galaxy note 2 and am currently running the liquidsmooth rom, I was previously running the Jedi-X14 and Carbon Rom. I bought NBA2k13 in the google play store and have played the game on my phone before, but I am currently am not able to play the game while on the liquidsmooth rom. I made changes to the build prop file (from GT-7105 to SGH-T889) and even installed the multi dpi play store cause i read that it might have been a dpi issue to try to fix the problem and still am not able to download and install the game as the play store always says that the phone is not compatible. Can anyone help me in this issue?
The only thing I can suggest is make a backup with titanium and then restore. Or let google be it friend

the things I have tried or what I figured out through searches on the forums here and through google. don't really understand why it's giving me this compatibility issue when I have not ever had this before!
maybe someone who reads this thread and has NBA2k13 installed on their phone can upload their build prop for me or something!
I don't own it but it shows in the play store. im running tweaked. DropBox link to my build.prop https://www.dropbox.com/s/6sp8a5j5hvodz3c/build.prop

[Q] new pro tab 12.2 downloading tons of stuff

So, set up my new tab pro 12.2 last night. This morning it seems like it is still downloading stuff.
When I look at data usage it looks like it has downloaded a total of 3G, about 2.25G just from google play store!
I know I don't have THAT many apps installed, and when I open the play store it doesn't look like it is doing anything.
Any ideas??
I got the 10.1 a few days ago. Today all of a sudden I got the same thing - but it was from the Samsung app store. It was all the Hanson office suite program files. I thought it was odd, myself.

Same here. Got new 10 in. yesterday and got it from both ends. Samsung downloaded a bunch of stuff then Google updated all the gapps crap b4 I got in to turn off auto update. After I play with it awhile, I will factory restore, TWRP recovery, and get rid of a bunch of bloat. I didn't sign up on the Samsung apps yet. Don't know if I want another user I'd to track. I rooted already. Am going to install Xposed framework.

For a new Tab after unboxing and setup is that normal, Google play will update all apps to the newest version.
After this update disable the autoupdate check by all google apps, so Google will ask you for the update.
If you make a factory reset or full wipe it will this do again.
For Samsung apps, this will only update if you create a Samsung account.
Delete your SAM account.
If you don't let it connect to wifi, you can turn off autoupdate, then login.
