[Q] Google Play not updating apps? - Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti

Just picked up a new Galaxy Note 8.0 and Google Play is acting strange. When I try to download and/or update apps, they stall at "Downloading..."
I've tried clearing data/cache, logging out/in with my Google account, rebooting, etc. and I can't seem to get this cleared up and moving.
Any ideas?

Update: If I get a download started (where it hangs at "Downloading..."), then restart the tablet, upon reboot, it downloads instantly. Weird.
This will not work if I put multiple apps in queue and restart.

[H] Error 403 Updating any App on Google Play Store (P-605 out-of-the-box)

Hello,
Just received my P-605 Galaxy Note 10.1. After I turn it on, filled all the bloatware of Samsung (just to test it) and also for Google Services. From moment zero, the Google Play Store start to gave Error 403 when updating any installed App.
I can download new ones, but not update existent ones.
Here is what I've tried:
- Delete Google Account;
- Stop and Clear Play Store data;
- Reboot;
- Remove Google Account and re-add it;
- Same problem.
- Factory Reset (on stock recovery);
- Didn't filled anything on the start wizard;
- Opened Google Play Store and there fill the google Account;
- Same problem.
I'm on Stock 4.3 (Portuguese TMN ROM), connected to LTE and Wifi. No problem with the connection, everything internet connected works just fine.
Any ideas?!
Thank you.

[Q] Google Play Store Not Downloading; Nothing Working

I'm running Cyanogenmod 11 on my Samsung Note 8.0 (n5110), and Google Play will not download anything. It just sits in the oscillating "Downloading" bar and never downloads. I can download anything else just fine, but not from Google Play. Here's what I've tried:
- Clear cache/force stop Google Play
- Clear cache/force stop Google Play and Google Play Services
- Clear cache/force stop Google Play, Google Play Services, and Google Services Framework
- Clear cache/force stop the above and Downloadmanager/Downloads
- Clearcache/force stop the above and the package installers/managers
- All of the above, but also remove Google Account
- All of the above, but also restart
- Clear cache through ClockworkMod Recovery
- Reinstall GAPPS
- Factory reset
- Factory reset and clear cache through ClockworkMod Recovery
- Restore to a backup from March
- Clear dalvik cache
- Clear dalvik cache and cache
- Install latest version of Google Play Store from gapps early
With cache-clearing and obsessive attempts at the top 5 peppered throughout. I finally got the idea to check the logs and learned about "logcat". I thought the efficient cause to be somehow related to this line:
W/DownloadManager( 2826): Aborting request for download 7: java.net.SocketTimeoutException: failed to connect to r1---sn-a8au-p5ie.c.android.clients.google.com/4.59.126.144 (port 80) after 20000ms
But you can't search a thing like that online, because you just get a bunch of Java threads. After this I tried restarting my router and looking in /etc/hosts, but /etc/hosts only has localhost in it, and I don't even know what's supposed to be there in the first place.
And if you guys got nothin', I'm switching to paper and probably giving up android altogether. I feel like this thing is worse than bricked. Bricking is either fixable or unfixable. This is fixable to everyone but me.
Any ideas, anyone?
Did you try to use a Stock based ROM?

[Q] Google App stopped working on both my phones, one is rooted, other is factory

Hello,
The google search app has stopped working on both of my phones. One is a factory S3, never modified, the other has MOAR.
If I long press the menu button, the google search pops up, but searching for anything gives network errors and the cards do not load (same if I click into the google search widget). Both phones have internet access and I can load a browser and run the searches without a problem.
I've not tried fixing the factory phone but on MOAR I've attempted the following with no success:
1) Clear dalvik
2) Clear App data
3) Uninstall updates from Google App (blue icon)
4) Re-install updates
After all that, it still says, "Network error" and fails to load anything.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
EDIT: Fixed it. For anyone else that has this issue:
Uninstall updates and clear data from Google App, Google Play Store, and Google Play Services. Update through play, and back in action.

HELP:

**sorry for the thread title, it won't let me edit it. Was supposed to be "Help: android.process.acore error after Marshmallow update"**
Hi, I updated my HTC One M8 (stock ROM) to Android 6 via an OTA update sent to the phone.
The update went fine - no error messages. But after the final reboot, I am getting constant (and I mean constant, not every few seconds) errors that all processes are stopping. Particularly, after everything else has stopped, I get repeated messages about android.process.acore, android.process.media, and Sense Home unexpectedly stopping (I guess these are the ones that keep starting up and failing). By pressing "OK" or "close" on these messages, sometimes I can press something very quickly before another message pops up. In this ridiculous manner, I was able to do/find out the following:
- Pressing the home button shows me the white screen with "htc" written on it, like on phone startup, or sometimes a black screen
- Pressing the recent-apps button actually does show me the recent apps and I can click on them, though most of them just close right after I open them. Some of them work -- like I can receive phone calls (I just don't hear the phone ring, and I have to press the "talk" button in between pressing OK on error messages).
- I can get into the settings screen. In this way, I tried:
- Disabling one by one every app I could, including Google Services Framework and Google Play services which were giving repeated "stopped" error messages - but I still get the android.process.acore & Sense Home errors and no UI
- Clearing cache & data for all contact & calendar app I could find, and also for Google Services Framework and Google Play services and some others
- Going into Developer Options and viewing active services - I stopped all active and cached services and process I could, to no avail
I also tried booting into recovery mode and wiping the cache partition.
Nothing works!! Please can anyone help me save my phone without doing a factory reset? Unfortunately, since I started the Android update by accident (pressed "now" instead of "later"), I didn't backup anything beforehand... and while my contacts and calendars are always backed up, my apps & preferences & media files are not. I also tried connecting to a computer via USB, but while the computer recognizes the phone, I cannot actually access the files (I see it as a drive, but when I open it there are no files or folders, and the HTC sync SW does not recognize it) - so no possibility to back up the files in that way...
Thank you!!
Yael
