Okay so first things first:stock rom stock everything
What I've tried before asking for help
1. Tried re-downloading said apps (multiple apps)
2.uninstall-reinstall
3.clear playstore information
4.opera normal is the only one of a couple that are giving this error that I care about. Tried using other versions of opera that have never been installed before on this device or downloaded from my playstore account, they work perfectly fine. Its just the one version that just happens to be (what's in my opinion) the best.
Havent tried a factory reset, this happened after I synced/updated with kies and added a whole bunch of music on my standard 16gb sd card....had to move it from my phone storage because it caused problems
My question is obviously how do I fix this?
As a part 2 to that question how do I figure out where my phone is default installing apps? It should be the phone storage not the sd card right?

Or you could roll back to a previous version of the PlayStore by uninstalling the current one.
That worked in a number of cases.
I had the same problem and I had to do the following:
1. Cleared the cache and data from: Google play store, Google Play services, and Google Services Framework
2. If under the Google play store there is a button to uninstall updates do that as well.
3. Reboot into recovery and clear cache and the davik cache
I then rebooted and I was fine. Have not seen the problem since

Most stock builds have a point it wont let you go past for apps. So if you have something like only 10% free on internal, it may not let you install any more. How much storage do you have left?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
There is plenty of storage available...

Ok, then yeah, thats a problem.
Did you try again after a reboot?
If so try going into recovery and clear cache and dalvik.

Restored a previous backup. All is good. Very weird though. I also noticed there was another playstore service app installed in addition to the normal google playstore. Probably they have made updates

When I got that message, long story short, it was because I got a paid app for free and tried to use a license key app. Bottom line, pay for the app the honest way.

Hi I have a funny problem on my note 2 and nexus 7 which only started today and effects both.if I download a apk to install it won't let me use the install button , nothing happens. I have made sure I have allowed the external sources. It had always worked before
Could it be because you're internal memory is full? Or you could also try wiping davlik cache.

If you are using screen filter or same application, then close it. I have read such application can cause this type of issue

Hey,
I'm on a stock, non rooted, galaxy S3 on jelly bean 4.1.2. Notifications for every other app works except the official twitter app. They just stopped working on their own a few days ago. I've checked the settings, reinstalled the app, restarted my phone, and everything except a hard reset. Anyone know how to fix this?

Yes I tried it. Didn't help, I also cleared the cache to no avail.
Also I tried a new app today, Plume. It wasn't getting any notifications either. This is getting extremely annoying...
Only other things I can think of is to try a factory reset. Backup all you can first though, including your internal sd. Sorry I dont have anything better at this point.
You could try to flash the latest firmware in Odin, but I have a feeling that wont do any good...
Is there a way to clear only dalvik cache without being rooted? If so, thats another thing you can try.

I had the same problem but was fixed with the new twitter app update
I found the fix. At least for me. On a PC go to twitter > settings > apps and revoke access to all the apps. Worked perfectly for me after restarting my phone and everything.

Every app or just the twitter for android one? Because I revoked just the one for android and it didn't help.

You haven't modified your DPI settings or are using a ROM which requires some sort of modded Play store are you? Or changed build.prop settings?

Nope. Same problem on Virgin Rom, Golden Eye Rom (where I noticed the problem), then Darth stalker ROM.
All have the same issue. Even factory resetted on all ROMs. Same issue.
Here's the kicker. I'll try something new that I haven't tried before, then 1 app that was giving me problems will actually download. Then to definitely make sure if it's been fixed, try downloading something like Rom toolbox, same error message.
This happened ever since Virgin Rom, and really started taking effect once I flashed Goldeneye ROM.
Not saying those ROMs are the root cause, but just giving you guys a more clear picture of when this started happening.
If anything, it happened ever since I re rooted my phone.
Remove your Google account and re add it. Also recommend clearing data for Google play services, play store, and Google services framework as mentioned above. Do all this at once then reboot. Should fix it. At least it did for me.

So I flashed a bunch of roms over 2-3 days trying to find something different that I'd like. Now no matter what I try, I can't get this to go away.
I've searched and experimented for the past 2 days and I can't get anywhere.
-clear app cache
-clear app data
-remove updates
-format sd card
-factory reset phone
-turn off location services
-turn off wifi
-try new apn
-install stock rom
-install various other roms
-delete cache, permissions, etc
-different gmail accounts
-sign out, reboot, sign in
I've literally tried everything out there that I can find by searching. The last thing I haven't done that I will have to try if I can't do anything else is to "un-root" my phone back to stock.
The weird thing is if I Check the play store, it says apps are installed. But they aren't.
Any one out there have any ideas?
Going back to stock won't fix it either. It a problem on googles end.

It allows you to change your location to france, Canada or wherever which in turn changes your IP address. It doesn't change your location permanently of course, only while your connected to the app. I looked online for ways to fix the package file invalid error and this was one way posted. It definitely works if you have this annoying problem. I even went ahead and purchased the pro version of the app I posted. Lol.

I still have not fixed the issue. I was stuck on trying 2 to 3 apps that refused to work. Looking across the board, I am able to download probably 80% of the apps that I try. Nothing has allowed me to get the other 20% that refuse to work so far.
I've tried the VPN app....I don't think there is anything else out there on my end that I can do. It's weird, I can download 5 apps in a row, then one app will give me the error, then I can keep on chugging if I choose a different app.
its happenning to alot of people, myself included...no big deal, as no app is "life critical"...
when google gets it fixed, it will be back to business as usual, so just be patient
