Download one of those, copy to /system/app, set permissions rw-r-r, reboot.
Oh, and if it doesn't work, wipe data in "Apps" in "Settings" of Google-services-framework, playstore itself and the play services and reboot again!

Google Play Store Force Closes

Hello everyone, i hope this is the right place to post this.
Here is my issue, its prob easily fixed but im just unsure of how to do it. I was messing around with some inverted apps. Google Play Store was one of them. It wouldnt work, and the store kept force closing.
If i reinstall the vending.apk file, it installs over what i have and works fine...untill i restart my phone. After restarting, first thing i get " Unfortunately, Google Play Store has stopped"
Can anyone shed some light on how i could fix this? It works perfectly fine until i restart my device.
Try clearing data and fixing permission

I just cleared data settings. Fixing permissions in CWM right now.
Will update when finished.
EDIT : Nothings different. First thing that happens after reboot is the force close error.
Bump. Can anyone help?
google store force close
I had the same problem! Are you doing the copy/paste method? Then I kept trying different things, then I figured out you can use file manager program to install it, and it seems to work fine. Try that maybe
I just reinstalled the apk and was all good

or- maybe not- just force closed on me again!
same thing happens to me, on JW4 and as soon as I download an app, force close. Tried everything, older versions, modified versions, clear cache, fix permissions. I can download install from other markets no problem. Everything else works .. I'd hate to do a factory reset. Ideas??
FIX! You must be rooted. Uninstall play store, then using a root explorer paste vending.apk in system/app, then reboot. You can also use the mod vending.apk, it'll work. I had moved apk using titanium backup into my system rom, then when I did the most recent update it all went to hell, force close every time I tried to download an app. By doing the above it installs it outside of the rom and it worked. Hope it helps!!!

You don't have to install another Rom. 1st to a search for a mod playstore multidpi .. manage apps and clear data on playstore .. then with root explorer go to system/app check name .. vending or phonesky .. rename your mod playstore to same paste in system and set permissions to rw-r--r-- .. move paste overwrite into system/app reboot

Well I finally fixed it…. “Google Play has stopped working …” error in my S3
Previously when I rooted my S3 and installed Titanium Backup, I had changed Google Play from a System app to a User app… fail. Nooo it don’t like it. Tried alot of stuff to get it back working
Just undid it, changed Google Play back from User app to a System app and viola!! :laugh:

Well, it may not be the reason for issue. I also made it user app but there was no issue untill once i stopped when some app was getting downloaded.
I tried every thing like restoring from Titanium backup, cleanig cache,cleaning data for google play store and google play services but no luck. Finally it got resolved when i flashed gapps after deleting google account. Then after flashing gapps when i created new acount a d then install apk it worked.
Hope this will help.

Application as System App

Sorry i have a lot of questions.
Can i make ordinary apps to system app?
If possible where can i get them and move it to system/app.
And if i move a app to system app.. will they still update normally?
Yes, just move them from data/app to system/app, reboot, done.

Don't forget to set permissions to rw-r--r-- after moving to /system/app.
Read for All.
Write for Owner.

Sounds like a problem with permissions. I just had a similar problem myself. New to rooted Android, so there may be a better fix.
I installed SuperSU so that I could get away from Superuser, and when I started it up, it recommended updating the binaries. However, updating failed even after I granted root with Superuser. I checked out permissions, and had rwx-r-rwx. After trying with several apps, each with root access, I finally managed to change permissions to rwxrwxrwx. Reupdated SuperSU, and it worked. Then reset my permissions, and done. The app that managed to change permissions was ROM Toolbox Pro, for what it's worth.
I think you'll find it much easier using inteks' SystemCleanup app: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1359611
If you want to odex the app, it will move and odex at the same time, you can move to /system/app or /vendor/app and back. One very nice feature is that it will even prompt you when an app you have in /system has been updated through Google Play, and you can update + odex the system apk.
Highly recommended!
I dont understand what ur saying guys (2 guys above me)

I was saying there's an app, called SystemCleanup, that you can use to move whatever apps you like to system. It handles a lot of things for you (permissions, etc.)

Check you have correct permissions with root explorer. It needs to be

If still fail delete from system.
Re download the app from thread and push to system/app with root explorer again setting permissions as stated.

First uninstall updates of play store. Clear data and cache. Reboot the phone and try whether play store works or not.

Thanks guys.. i just notice that the google play store is in the data/app not in the system/app so i immediately move it in there and then boom! the problem fix.

[Q] Error 927 play store

Hi guys
I am getting an error 927 when trying to download or update apps. I have the latest version of the play store, with the new design and all.
People are saying it has something to do with the developers servers and all but no apps are downloading, doesn't matter which developer made it.
Have you tried wiping your cache and rebooting?

It could also be an odex file with same name as play store.
Just rename file by adding a 1 save reboot and try.
I had this problem with a single app because of a odex file I used root explorer to rename.

[Q] Will This possibly work?

I posted a thread earlier, asking how to revert a Modded google play store to normal and barely got any real.. answers. I was wondering if I got a normal APK Google Play Store, replace the modded version in System>Apps with Root Browser and then Restore with Titanium Backup and reboot would it work? Mind if anyone would care to confirm this for me? If not then give me your way of returning to normal Google Play Store status.
[I was able to restore mine by downloading the newest version and putting it in system/apps, renaming it and then restarting. Make sure you change the permissions on the new file to make sure it will work right. You need to rename the new play store to phonesky.apk most likely. Just make sure that is what yours is called in system/app first.
yes, copy the playstore you want to use, copy it over using root explorer, copy to system/app dir, renaming the original first, then set the correct permissions, and reboot, it will work...
thank you
When you say change the permissions on the new file do you mean with Lucky Patcher? Just making sure..

Tap and hold in root explore. Select "permissions" and change top value to read and write, then the rest to read
Or
Type this in a terminal emulator

Thank you thank you. I sorta figured it out with a friend if mine but this was just clarification.. I also found an option in Lucky Patcher that says "Install modded version of Google play store" as well as included a normal version of the play store
