Hello all,
I'm hoping you can help. I flashed PA_d2att-3.60-12JUN2013-050113 and pa_gapps-full-4.2-20130719-signed today and now I'm not able to download all of my apps from the App store. I was able to get a good amount of apps, but when I tried to put on Facebook, Facebook Messenger, Instagram, Twitter, I was getting the Packet File is Invalid message.
I cleared the play store cache from within android but that didn't work. I tried rebooting into TWRP and clearing out all my cache's and that didn't work either.
I saw someone link a 'market fix' app and I even tried that. Nothing seems to be working.
Suggestions?

I'm no help on what the problem is, but I've been having this problem quite a lot lately. I'm on 4.1.1 rooted. Also, the wife's bone stock s4 has been throwing the same error from time to time. I might not be your phone or software. I'm interested to hear other input.

This just happened after going on Paranoid Android (4.2.2) I like the ROM, but I may have to try something else if I can't get it to work right
Well you're flashing an old release, try flashing a newer one and see if that helps.

I'll check for new ones. I took that right from the first post on the thread on here. Maybe I misread something....
ahh yeah I saw 3.6 stable and completely missed the 3.69. I'll try it tonight when I get home and charge this thing back up. Hopefully that works.
Just tried installing apps again. This time over wifi rather than LTE. They worked. Weird. I could understand if no apps downloaded over LTE, but I downloaded probably 20 or so and only a handful didn't work.
Oh well. I'll stick with this ROM for the moment and see how it behaves over a few days.
Thanks again for pointing out there was a newer one.
Temporary fix anthill Google fix on they end
Unlike other solutions that I have seen, this actually works: Follow the below simply step carefully to solve this problem
1.download this VPN software(hideman) http://www.mediafire.com/download/4b5mato1mtb7vrk/net.hideman_2.1.apk
Or you can still download any other vpn software that can change your ip but I used hideman
2.After you have installed this software on your phone,open it and click on country of connection and choose United State then connect
3. Now open your playstore and download any app
This is just idea from : http://www.droid-life.com/2013/08/0...-is-invalid-error-for-many-during-app-updates . I did not take credit for it.
If you go to settings apps all...and wipe data/cache for Google services framework your good.

It's an admitted error with the new playstore update. No guaranteed fix for it yet. Just time.

This is the new Market upgrade. Speed has been very much improved. 3.1.3 was slow.
But 3.1.5 has improved on speed.

I like the new market, but it can be slow to load and updates often get stuck on the loading screen which sucks. Grey loading screens also have a yellow tint on my device. A work in progress I think.

I'm on newest version, but updates often get stuck here too.
Have to use FastBoot and then problem always is solved ...
Do we have to wait for new (non beta) version or did you find a solution?
When I use the new market, apps are missing from the installed list.
Eg, Facebook is not listed even though i have it installed, when I search for it, it says installed.
Also it thinks Maps isn't installed....

Delete data and cache and all apps installed from the market will appear in the list. I also do the same when my apps list loads forever and hangs, after that it's faster for some time. This new market is kinda poorly optimized, hope they release a new version to be as fast as the old skool market.
In my opinion the android market app sucks in any of his versions and with any rom, stock or mod.
It's often slow, sometimes i see an update available for an app but when i click on it there is no update button. When perform a search 80% times it find only porno-nudegirls-related things, and also not so related...
I think google really should have to put a lot more attention and start developing an app that is fast and functional and not the crap we have now... And maybe have more respect for all the serious developers here who post their applications in the market and see theirs accounts gone for no reason as appened to Leo...

Seems to work perfectly for the majority of people. I suggest you may have issues with your device if you find it slow. Also, if you keep finding "porno-nudegirls-related things" then I suggest you stop searching for them
In summary, it works perfectly for me. My only beef would be that it just doesn't have a download button, rather than telling you an app is not compatible.
Also, the Honeycomb Market is sooooo much better, so ICS will clearly have a better version as well.
Wow amazing. It's blazing fast. Worth a shot.
I also got the problem that installed apps are missing in the market(Facebook too and about 20 others). Tried clearing data and cache + reboot didnt help.
Has anyone a clue how it can be solved?

Market Doctor in Titanium Backup fixes that.
I have already 3.1.5
Ty, but market dr. didnt help because he doesnt recognise the links as missing, also most apps in the market are telling me that my phone is not compatible - my guess is that the market also thinks that my installed apps are not compatible and therefor not shown..
Can anyone help? I have no clue what to do.

Yes ... it's often slow.
Yes ... often there is an update available for an app but when i click on it there is no update button
And nearly every time there actually is an update button present ... update will hang due to some kind of connection error (never start downloading app)
Removing new Market update or (fast) rebooting phone solves this problem until new Market update re-install itself again.
My phone NOT faulty ... new Market or maybe something behind the walls of Goggle is buggy ...
Anybody found a prober solution working on not rooted phone
Hating the new search, If say, 5000 results are found, it'l only show about 200-300, wtf?
From your phone open the browser and head to https://play.google.com/store. (Tip: You may want to clear data and defaults on browser and Market before doing this.)
Search for “Google Wallet.” (If your browser prompts you to open the Market, don’t. Just stay in the browser.)
When the results come back, tap on the Google Wallet icon.
Tap the “Install” button from within the browser and then sign into your Google account. (Again, this is all from the browser, not the Market app.)
Once you have signed in, you should be redirected back to the Market page in the browser.
Tap the back button until you are prompted for the Market or Browser again, this time choosing the Market.
The Android Market should open to the Google Wallet page with an option to install.
**Note 1: It has recently come to my attention that you will have to change to a Google build (although some custom ROM's are fine) in order for this to work for you.
**Note 2: If you are an international user, you must be rooted and have the app MarketEnabler installed. You can use T-Mobile or you can use my untested method of using AT&T as your carrier and may not need to take any of the steps above.
**Note 3: I highly recommend installing the older apk from the Themes and Apps subforum.
**Note 4: If Google Wallet throws up a banner that says "Unsupported Device," it's nothing to worry about. It's because you're rooted!
Here's a video tutorial to help! updated video.
Thought I'd share this because it worked perfect for my Galaxy Nexus on T-Mobile. Enjoy!

Did you try clearing your data on both the browser and Market? It should help. If you did, try it a couple times! It will eventually work.

I tried clearing the data on the browser, but not the market. Trying now...
I had to clear data and cache on market and browser and try a couple times before it actually got around the "this item is not available for your carrier" message in the Market app, I had logged in on market.android.com, then after choosing browser for the app and it logged in, hit back and the chooser came up again then used Market and it opened straight to the install prompt and worked

The procedure I used was actually posted on engadget yesterday, but OP's is pretty much the same... don't know if they fixed it by now but it did work for me overnight. It's basically logging in on the browser then getting lucky when you back out and choose the market instead it goes right to the accept & install screen instead of the first app screen where it has the info for it and says "this is not available from your carrier"
It's working for me. My problem was I was clearing the browser data after every failure. It seems like the first time will fail every time, but if you sign out and start the browser process over without clearing the data it works.

"If it doesn’t work right away, just sign out of the Android Market website from your browser and try the steps again. I tried this on my Verizon Galaxy Nexus and it worked on the 2nd try. " It worked exactly that way for me. Thanks again!! Words can't describe how excited I am!!!

Hey again,
I tried both. I'm still facing the same problem. Every time I try to hit the back button, it freezes for few seconds and it crashes.
I use Whatsapp a lot so this is bad.
I only started facing this problem when I installed the most recent Hyperdrive RLS 11. It is an awesome ROM. Too bad I'm having this problem.
Do you have the same ROM installed? I hope Sbrean can help me with that, but I can't post a message on his thread since I'm still new.
I'm on the rom and just installed the app no problem. Something you did... Try a fresh install once again I guess.

Just tested it myself on my T999 and I too have no issues. It's definitely something on your end. It may be due to your specific selections within the Aroma Installer that's causing the FC. If nothing else you've tried resolved it that's the only other possible cause I can come down to.

Well I don't think it has to do with me doing something wrong while installing the ROM because I was going step by step. Again I installed it 3 different times after wiping everything.
But what might be the cause of this, I can't really say. I hope someone could just figure it out for me.
I read that few people are facing the same problem. I opened Verizon's and AT&T's threads to check.
Anyway thank you for your help.
By the way, can I tag Sbrean in anyway so that he knows about my problem? I can leave a message on his thread since I am very new to posting and stuff.
This isn't Facebook so no tagging unfortunately. If you post a logcat or go more in specifics about the error I may be able to help. Tell me exactly what you're doing during the install; what options are chosen, how you are wiping things, what exactly are you wiping. It'll be a stroke of luck if someone just jumps in and knows what is going wrong lol. Help me help you.

Oh okay. I thought of that though I can't really say.
If this is the case, it'll take me a long time to figure out what applications might be causing the problem, right? I mean how should I know whether it's the GS4 theme or any other application that's causing this FC.
Guys I'm sorry for that. I really appreciate your help.

hahaha well okay let me tell you.
I first wipe "factory reset" twice. Then I wipe cache, dalvick cache and system.
After I do so, I installed the ROM.
I'm choosing the ICS theme.
Then I am choosing the following applications: (Svoice, Stranslate, 4.2 Camera, S3 Camera (not the Note 2 that comes by default), SNote, SMemo,
S4 Accuweather, Allshare Play, Flipboard, AOSP Email, My Files, Voice Recorder, Rom Toolbox, AOSP Music (Play Music), hacked TW-Launcher 5x5, hacked youtube, street view, google maps. I think these are the apps.
Then I proceed and I wipe dalvick-cache before rebooting.
When the system starts, I am waiting for 10 minutes then reboot again.
Basically, this is what I'm doing.

- Apps do not show up as "Purchased" on the Google Play Website (Grrr.)
- Selecting "My Apps Apps" brings up the error "We're sorry, there was an error. Please try again later. turns up an error." but...
- If I download a new app using the web store, that one app shows up on Google Play Website and the error is gone for a while.
I called Google Play Support and they very nicely said it's a known issue with no workaround and have no idea when it will be fixed by 'Engineering' and those don't tell us much.
Geez. I never thought Google would disappoint me this much.

- I CAN instal free apps from the Google Play website (did not try paid apps since I don't want to pay for them again).
- Apps still show up a "Purchased" on the phone but...
- Apps do not show up as "Purchased" on the Google Play Website (Grrr.)
- Selecting "My Apps Apps" brings up the error "We're sorry, there was an error. Please try again later. turns up an error." but...
- If I download a new app using the web store, that one app shows up on Google Play Website and the error is gone for a while.
I called Google Play Support and they very nicely said it's a known issue with no workaround and have no idea when it will be fixed by 'Engineering' and those don't tell us much.
Geez. I never thought Google would disappoint me this much.

You pretty much hit the nail on the head, Ive done everything there is to do about this issue, Im also updating my apps through the Google play-store website. Im really irritated about this issue. Thanks for the reply, I hope Google gets on this issue immediately.

Nope. ..

I suppose if we do get it on the note 2...we might see this error. ..
But until then. ..everything is fine. ..g

I have a Galaxy S III but found this thread when searching for solutions to this problem. I'm getting the "RPC:S-5:AEC-0 Error" on the Google Play app and "We're sorry, there was an error. Please try again later." message on the Google Play website when trying to see my Android apps.
I was using CM10.1 but the problem persists after returning to stock. This is VERY annoying!

I see....
No errors at all on my end....regardless of rom or framework.....so far...g
Had this issue...
Solved it like this:
First I deleted all google accounts on the phone.
Cleared data/cache and force stopped play store, framework, and play services.
Rebooted phone.
Added back all accounts, main account first (not req.. Just easier)
Open play store, menu, select account.
At first I thought it was a play store apk issue because I have a multi-dpi inverted play store.. So I loaded a normal play store apk and three other modded ones.
Ended up going back to the original modded one and started doing the above.
Edit:
Read this thread from beginning to end.. Many different options.

Unfortunately i think all of us who are affected by this apparent account "corruption" on Google's servers are out of luck until this gets more mainstream exposure. I spoke with 2 Google support techs which was a complete waste of my time. The techs seem to be aware of the problem yet continue reading from scripts like robots. I've yet to read of a single account of someone getting this issue resolved where the account is corrupt on Google's servers. As with everyone else who is suffering from this issue, I'm frustrated and I see no evidence of any progress being made to resolve this issue any time soon.
Since this account is tied to 3 android devices i own...all devices suffer from the same issue.
VERY FRUSTRATING!!

Edit:....
I was full stock when I posted this Andrew. ..so then I tested a theory. .
The device got rooted with CF auto root. ..
I deleted all user data, wiped caches, and started fresh with root only. .
Then set up my Google account and presto. ...error
So I wiped again and pushed TWRP and restored my stock backup. ..then used triangle away and returned to bone stock. .
I set up the phone again. ..and no errors. ..
Now. ..I am not saying that Google is looking for root or SU permissions...but that's sure what it looked like. ..
It's possible I suppose ???
Even though many users are rooted and have no errors ??
It just seems too coincidental that I triggered and removed the errors via root and unroot....
Just my .02....g
I have the same problem on S3. No solution at the moment. End the issue happened me after a complete restore of the phone, so now I can't install all my paid apps...my actual solution is aptoide.

I have the same ****ing problem but in a full stock situation, only with Samsung original sw. So it is not depending by the privileges of root.

Well. ..
I hope we can get the attention of a few developers. .
Perhaps there is a work around through some code work. ..
At this point. ..I'd like my paid apps back. ..
Even though I have full backups, I still own them. ..g

Google is going to be the only ones who can help us. Only thing we can do now is use like the amazon app store.
Btw heres a link to it, Not a true solution but better than nothing.

Google needs to step up!
I think Google is starting to fix things. After 2 days with this problem, my Google Play started showing my apps on both my S3 and web.
Yep....
I can see the apps at least. ...
Download to follow I hope. ..g
Is the app down ,I click on it and it just sticks on the XDA logo ,website forum obviously working ok ,but the app seems to have an issue
Upgrades on the server side can cause outages. Try again after some time and update to the latest version
Much of the app seems to have suddenly shifted. I'm not sure I understand many of the changes especially as it's not been updated for 2 weeks
Seems to be working for me.
i gave up on it the last update broke it
i just use website now
are you using the old version....new:https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.xda.labs.play
The app works so-so. It could definitely use tons of improvement. It's good for push notifications. Every once in a while, clicking on a push notification will start launching the XDA app but then it goes away. Relaunching manually from the app icon works fine afterward.

Same here. It just doesn't want to load. Using the website now too.
I gave up on the app almost as soon as they released it. It is a mess. There is a thread for the app, seems backend changes made this recent mess.
Check out the new XDA app! Let us know what you think [App rolling out now]
The new app is just an upgrade to the current XDA app, so you should be able to just go into Play and hit "Update" https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.xda.labs.play The app is rolling out now, and will take hours to get to...
forum.xda-developers.com
I watched the New forums conversion and the app was behind on development. I decided then to only use the website and not the app in Beta!

no....read the thread psted above the new version is messed up
I thought it was just me. I switched back from iphone and didn't realize how much xda has changed since my older android endeavors.
I have not been able to use the app since 11/2 when it updated on all of my devices. It just hangs at the XDA logo. Have cleared cache, force stopped it, cleared data, and even uninstalled and reinstalled the app and it still doesn't work. There are plenty of comments on the Google Play Store with complaints about the app not working but the app developers seem to be ignoring the comments including mine. A little acknowledgement from the developers about it would go a long way.
App never worked for me. Never loaded anything.
We've got a thread about this very crash in the xda app forum (2/3 of us are on pixel 6 pro and at least one comment in google PlayStore was a p6p too)
Latest update Broken App
So the latest PlayStore update has broken the app on Android 12. On my Pixel 6 Pro it worked fine on previous version but now it freezes on XDA logo and app never loads. Tried clearing cache/data. but no difference.
forum.xda-developers.com
Yesterday this app would just force close after I opened it, but today it seems to open but it won't keep me logged in. How the hell can an app made by this community have so many problems? This is baffling to me.

I had this issue, I have a pihole and turning it off solved it. I am able to get back on with my pihole enabled after that. It was just the initial launch. So try disabling any ad blockers.
I had to delete app data a couple times yesterday because it would get the XDA loading screen and then go back to the home screen.

Same here. I find that the app doesn't refresh and I have to remove it from recents anger then relaunch. But now when I do that the behavior you describe reemerges. I hope they fix it soon.

The app itself is so strange to begin with. It's part forum app part browser. I definitely preferred Tapatalk.
