Apps are uninstalling improperly and can't reinstall. - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I wanted to reinstall an app, not just clear data. So I went and uninstalled an app. It says uninstalled finished, but when I check in the Apps in Settings, it shows the package name and 0.00B. If I reinstall the app via Play Store, it installs properly. But the app I want to reinstall is not in Google Play. And it wont install when using an APK. Need help.

Apps won't show up as installed in market

I formated my SD, did a full wipe and installed Android Revolution HD.
For some reason all my apps reappeared (does google sync them when I log in with my google account?), but they won't show up as installed in the market.
I can't get any automatic updates that way.
Is there any way to make the market recognize my apps without having to manually reinstall every single one?
Thanks for your help.
Deleting data and clearing cache of the market in the applications menu fixed it.

Market Apps Install Locally but not Via the Google Play Website

I'd appreciate some help. I'm running ICS 4.0.4 (AOKP M6) and I can install apps locally on my phone, but when I try via the web client it doesn't work.
In fact there's a bunch of apps that say "Installed" on the Google Play website (In My Apps > All) for me when they're not.
I tried clearing cache and davik from recovery, and also clearing the cache from app settings.
I've tried removing my Google Account and readding it.

[Q] "Google play store has stopped working"

Hello!
I recently get this error probably after I rooted my device, whenever I try to download something from play store. When I click install or click accept (after clicking install) I get this error (10/10 cases). Then I keep getting it on a random basis. I deleted the data and cache (even rebooted between each one), then went to play store. It shows the apps and works for a long period of time (but eventually shows the error). But when I try to download something, I happens again. I checked the Download Manager and it is enabled.
I had backed up the play store using Titanium backup, then wiped its data and then uninstalled it from the system. Don't ask why lol.
But when I tried to restore it, Titanium backup was stuck at its progress. Then I had to place the APK of the backed up play store (the updated version of the play store (5.0.31) not the factory version.) in the /system/apps/ and set the rx- r-- r-- permissions. I checked the Titanium backup backup file and apparently it had some data for the data/data path. So I manually put it there and set the permissions like any other folder that is there. Keep in mind that I tried to reboot in between each attempt.
I used OpenVPN to access it but no luck.
Tried to delete dalvick-cache folder, but that didn't fix it neither.
Booted into safe mode, cause I thought maybe some of the applications are causing this like Xposed, Greenify and SetCPU (which I uninstalled just in case). This again didn't do it.
I rooted the device with Kingo root using a pc.
Android is 4.4.4.
My only guess left is that I should find the factory version of the Google Play that was installed?
As you can see I'm kind of running out of options here.
Could somebody offer an advice besides factory reset and being careful next time??

That happened to me too, reflash your rom.
I hope you learned about the profit of a nandroid backup.

Ok, i solved this. Steps here:
1- Removed Google Play Services completely via Titanium Backup
2- Downloaded Google Play Services from apkmirror
3- Remame the apk file to GmsCore.apk
4- Move GmsCore.apk to /system/app (do not install) and set permissions to rw-r--r-- (644)
5- Reboot to recovery mod, wipe cache and wipe dalvik cache, reboot system.
6- After that i got Play Store worked, Chrome, Maps and Drive didn't work so i uninstalled and reinstalled them, now all works.
Note re: Step 4--
I was only able to make this work after I actually DID install the Google Play Services apk from apkmirror

[SOLVED] Trying to reinstall gmail, error 506

Hello, I have just bought a new G4, and rooted it perfectly, by flashing the rooted system with adb.
That same day, gmail starts to pop up errors and force close after restoring data from TB (my fault!) so I decide to uninstall the upgrades. Play store get frozen on "uninstalling..." untill I have no other option but rebooting the system. Now, gmail is completely gone. Uninstalled. But if I try to reinstall it via play store, TB, aptoide, even downloading the apk, I get the error message "insufficient space, try uninstalling the app before. Error -506"
I have cleared caches, system cleaner, I have deleted (moved to the SD) the dead gmail files at system/data... but the error persists! Now I have run out of ideas, please help.
Forgot to mention, I can install or uninstall the rest of apps. It is only gmail the one that causes problems.
SOLVED: Finally, SDMaid was able to delete a corpse I have missed, so I could reinstall it as a user app. The force close was still there, but after some reboots, TB was able to turn it into a system app. Now it works again.
