Weird Playstore Problem - Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A

Hi Everyone,
So today I was looking to download an app that I had heard about from a friend (kingdom rush) and when I went to search for it in the playstore , it said no search results found. I figured that my device might not be compatible or something , but then I tried searching for apps such as facebook, chrome etc.. and still no search results were found. Is anyone else having this issue, I also tried removing my account and clearing data and cache but still no luck. Thanks in advance!

this can happen if you are using a custom dpi

I didn't know that, it's been bugging me this whole time I've use this ROM. It doesn't have a custom dpi settings thou, gonna have to ask the dev, thanks for telling.

I tried using different DPI before but now I'm on stock dpi (320) and I cleared the play store data and everything but I'm still having this problem ?

Same for me, and I've tried various ROMs too, I'm gonna do the last resort and do a full restore on the Nexus, I'll report back.

Need help bypassing lockscreen E4GT AOKP

Today Google Play Store was giving me the message of app incompatible with device. I changed to DPI to the Nexus Setting (I think its 320 or something) and as soon as I hit reboot I realized the mistake I have just committed. I have a pin unlock and now the screen DPI is so off that I cannot enter my pin and get my device unlocked. I've looked at bypassing apps on the play store but I cant install onto my device since the google play store wont let me install many apps since they are incompatible. Is there anything else I can do to save me the trouble of wiping my phone?

why dont you just flash over the rom again and it will load up stock dpi settings and preserve your data and settings. The most you will have is apps back that you may have deleted... It will refash your build.prop

I never loaded a ROM without wiping before but this did the trick for me. I had to re-install GAPPS also but thats not a major problem. Thanks for the help. I didnt think it was gonna be this easy.

[Q] turns to silent automatically

hi i have an htc one x obviously
it goes to silent mode on every rom i used viperx cm10 arhd insetcoin etc...
i guess its from an app because i had it recently about a week ago ?
and am on stock kernal i guess because i haven't changed it but am gonna after fixing this issue so any tips this is driving me crazy plz help
Do you use Tasker?
Could be a profile you set.
Also try to remove any recent apps you have added, do this one by one until you see the problem disappear and you will have found your culprit.
Or you could try:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.silent_time_android
And set it to turn on silent at certain times such as midnight till 7 am?
This could help re-configure the way your phones goes on silent and may get rid of the problem?
Finally, if your rooted try wiping the dalvik cache etc, maybe a hard reboot etc etc.
Hope I helped.

Your welcome mate.
Okay so tasker isnt the cause
I do highly recommend removing apps one by one and seeing is it carries on, remove the most recent first and work downwards.
Well a hard reboot is basically a factory restore. Which should be your last resort as it will remove all of your data.
Perhaps try another ROM/Kernel as another last resort also.

ok ill try to find it by removing apps
can games also be a problem or only apps ?
Anything that you have personally installed could cause a problem. But I would say it is more likely an app than a game. Try to think of apps that requested most permissions, or that you think may interact with the sound settings.

I'll be honest, not my strong point and have never changed a kernel.

Sorry I couldn't help you with this one mate

ROM DPI app/play store problem (solved)

Hey guys, I am using 'FactoryROM' and when I switched from 320dpi to 241 dpi (went through steps 1-5 properly mutliple times), there are alot of apps missing from the play store, even when I switch back from 241 to 320 and go through steps 1-5, it still happens. I really dont want to re-flash the ROM. I have also tried clearing cache and dalvik-cache, and fixed permissions before rebooting and still had apps missing from the play store (such as usps mobile, and script manager), along with force closes from apps that were already on my phone before changing the DPI
(If I missed any details please let me know so I can help you help me. Haha)
Anyway, my question is, is there a fix that is available, and is this a possible bug? I want to thank you all in advance who will help me, and apologize in advance if this has been asked.
Edit: solved it myself
Hi. Since you added (solved) tag to your thread's title, it would be nice to share how you did at the top or at the end of the first post. Someone reads the title, they will be looking for the solution as well. The rest of us will just ignore it.

You're right. Sorry,
I uninstalled the play store, rebooted to recovery. Wiped my cache twice along with the dalvik-cache (twice), flashed the 4.2 Gapps again, cleared my cache and dalvik again. Fixed permissions, and rebooted . Problem solved

[Q] xElite Gamer - Can't install anything, low memory alert

Hi guys,
i came back to Gingerbread from over a year experienced on ICS, why?
Is impossible to play, that's all.
I've tried this rom "xElite Gamer" as many of you suggest, but i've another kind of problem.. some apps cannot be installed!
Not all of them (that's very strange) but only some of them.
Play Store tells me that there's not enought space free to install apps like Facebook or the SwiftKey keyboard but allows me to install apps like ADW.Launcher.
If i try a Titanium Backup restore it restores successfully the SwiftKey but not Facebook.
I've tried by installing them from the APK but unsuccessfully, gave me error on the package.
So.. what's happening?
That's the ROM discussion thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2366002
I'm using the last one with his own Kernel
I've tried by reinstalling the rom, deleting everything, using a full wipe many and many times, nothing changes.

I had this problem some time ago. It's something with partition (i guess) and you are not allowed to install bigger apps than certain size. I had fix from Google Play but sadly i forgot the name of that app. I'll do some research and try find that app.
Try

Hi, thank you!
I've actually solved (10 seconds ago) using Lupus Kernel instead of xElite one, so it confirms my theory about a wrong partition dimension.
I'll try in the next days again, i'll let you know.

It was also a problem in lupus ics/gb V1 kernel, this app was workaroound. Wedgess fix it in later versions. I toutght it might help here also
@thejaman
This is not a rom Problem First of All
2nd of all its not MY Kernel, its the Amazing ExtremeKernel by @extremetempz , He will probably fix the errors eventually in r3

Sorry for the missunderstanding
The important thing is that we understand what created the bug and how to fix it, i thing that it was created by a small cache partition (only 2mb) of that kernel instead of the internal memory full size of the lupus cache partition that work as a folder.
On other hand, just to talk, i notice a lot of cpu governor on the lupus that the ExtremeKerned doesn't have, so seems to me that Lupus is still the best choice even in that case.
Thank you all guys for the help provided me :cyclops:

I did, it didn't work. It might something like Adaway that prevents it from working. Will do some further tests. Thanks for your comfirmation.
EDIT: After uninstalling Adaway and Xposed Framework, it still doesn't work. I will have to stick to the previous version. Please note, I'm on cm 10.2.1.3.
Unless you have other suggestions?
Regards,
I have the same problem with this version, I can't update because the app doesn't work, I've cleared the data, reboot and still it doesn't work, I have a stock nexus 5 with xposed but no modules have anything to do with youtube, if anyone knows what we can try please comment

First post. Hi I have xperia z1 havin same problem with this update seems if u go back to stock app (think thats what it's called) works fine but my phone keeps downloading the update on the fly.../ when they gonna fix it cuz im sick of uninstalling the app only to lose my history on youtube in the process, couple of good tunez dissipated in the mist of my mind
This update works just fine with cm11. I'll keep the old version for now and try again with the next.
I managed to fix it, what I did is turn google play services into a user app using titanium backup, then clear the data of youtube in the application section in settings that made the new update work after that I moved play services back to system app and everything is working ok now, you can try this and see if it works for you too
