The problem that's driving me crazy is the Play Store freezes and forces a reboot of the tablet. The Play Store will open but at some point soon afterward lock up and reboot. I've tried countless Lollipop based ROMS, stock kernels and ElementalX, overclocked and stock. The only thing that solves the problem is reverting back to KK. On any version of KK the tablet works without a hitch, on any version of Lollipop Play Store locks. I just used Wug's toolkit to unroot and revert back to stock 5.0.2. I thought I had solved the issue but no joy. Reverting to stock did solve the storage capacity displaying incorrectly, but Play Store still freezes.
What's up?

Hi everyone,
I have a GNex running 4.1.1 via the OTA Upgrade from 4.0.4. I am rooted, but running the stock google rom and kernel. My dilemna is that ever since I upgraded to JB, when updating apps, it'll download to 100% and sit there. I have to force stop the app, then as soon as I jump back into the play store, it updates my app. Would reinstalling the gApps help does anyone think? I really don't want to do a factory reset... Any ideas from anyone? Thanks!

Hi i have an Samsung Galaxy S Blaze and i was having trouble with the Play store to the apps will get to 100% when updating but wouldn't complete and i searched around and actually found this thread while searching lol but i found out that if you uninstall the updates to the Play store like when i did it it went back to 3.47 and when i tried updating all my apps again it worked just fine so it looks like it's a Google Play issue not your phone
So you can try that hopefully it works but it looks Google Play store updates automatically which i don't know how to stop but like the link says to try out AppBrain App Market which i am trying to set up now

I've been using Android Revolution 9.2 and this morning installed 10.0. Everything was working fine for a while, then all of a sudden the GAPPS process started force-closing and I lost all access to the Play Store. I would click on the play store icon and it would just bounce me back to the launcher (in this case, Nova Launcher 2.0). I decided I need to reflash Android Rev HD 10.0 (I have CWM Recovery 6.0.1 installed). The AROMA installer would start, but it would always lock up at some point before the installation began, usually at the prompt to backup the efs partition, sometimes earlier, sometimes later. I haven't been able to get a clean flash started. I even tried to go back to 9.2, but the same thing is happening.
I did a factory reset hoping it would fix the problem, but the GAPPS process continues to crash and I can't access google to restore my apps. So I'm really up **** creek here. Am I looking at a bad RAM problem all of a sudden? (god, I hope not!).
Any help/advice would be welcome.

I like to switch up ROMs a lot, going back and forth between Sense ROMs and sometimes to AOSP/CM-based ones. Typically, I wipe everything and install from a fresh download, check MD5s, etc. I don't back up and restore apps with Titanium Backup either.
Today I reflashed Team Ecliptic Revamped v3. It booted fine, etc. I reinstalled a lot of apps fresh from the Play Store and set everything up, logging into the usual Facebook, Twitter, eBay, etc.
Then at some point I wanted to get Xposed installed along with some modules and had to reboot. When I did, everything I'd installed from the Play Store was gone. l tried to update Google Play Services but it wouldn't allow it. I cleared data from anything/everything that I thought could be involved, but that did no good. Then I tried removing my Google account and reinstating it. Now it wouldn't allow me to log into Google at all.
I had no choice but to restore a Nandroid of another ROM.
Then I tried flashing the port of the OnePlus CM version (v2), which ran great for me a week or two ago. All of the above happened again.
What am I missing here? I'd be grateful for any suggestions.
p.s. Is it just me or are the custom recoveries acting screwy lately? I have the darndest time getting the latest TWRP (MDMower's 2.7.1.3-beta) to flash anything, and the latest Philz I could find for M7VZW, which I think goes back to early July, isn't much better.

TWRP updated today to 2.8 (http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/m7vzw)
as for playstore, i havent heard of this before. Try the new TWRP and do a full wipe and report back and i will try to troubleshoot with you.
I installed the new TWRP version but it makes no difference. I reflashed One Plus CM 11 as a test. It flashed fine, ran great, and then I rebooted for Xposed and... boom. Same problem. Maybe I need to RUU and start fresh?
I recently changed back to stock for more stability with phone calls and apps. However I have a problem S Note not wanting to install on my S4. When I attempt to side load the apk it says App not installed after it acts like its installing the app. The other issue I am having is with a few games that I am reloading from Titanium Backup that worked on 4.4.3 but not on 4.4.4. I don't want to reinstall them from the store because it blanks the data out and I don't want to start over on those games.
Having stock firmware, I don't think other phones apps will work. Not sure tho.
On LineageOS 13, the latest official build of LineageOS for the Nexus 10, when I iinstall the Nova Google Companion for Nova Launcher, Google Play Services, Nova Launcher, and a number of other apps crash. When returning to the home screen, it freezes, then sends the app into a boot loop where after the LineageOS logo appears in it's entirety, my device tries to start LineageOS, but then crashes again and so the boot loop process continues. I have already reported this issue to the Nova Launcher Beta Google+ community and mentioned that Nova Google Companion ran fine on the stock 5.1.1 ROM. I've already tried reflashing LineageOS and GApps. Suggestions as to what I should do without flashing a different ROM?
Update: So as it turns out, ANY UI modifications (Launchers, TeslaUnread, Nova Google Companion/Action Launcher Google Plugin) will send the device into a bootloop. I suspect that the issue is with themes provider or GApps, since Google Play, Play Services, and Themes Provider are the first to crash.
I have a similar issue but I am unsure what program causes it.
The tablet was newly installed and installing my list of apps, one being Nova.
EDIT, information provided by op:
The August 5th nightly accepts Nova Launcher, but not TeslaUnread, Nova Google Companion, or Action Launcher
Hello, I have similar issue with my Nexus 10 on lineageos 13. I've reset from factory, reinstall all my apps except Nova and it works fine.
When I decide to reinstall Nova, my nexus immediatly boot in loop...
It arrive sudunly probably after an uptade of Nova...

Similar issue on Galaxy S3 running Cyanogenmod 13 (20161220 Snapshot).
Installing Nova Launcher causes the device to freeze and go into bootloop where it reboots after "optimising apps".
I've also tried installing Google Now launcher but " Home" option doesn't show up and there is no way to switch from Trebuchet to it.
Similar issue on S2 Plus CM13 after an update
Tested 2 weeks without Nova and nothing happened
Decided to give a shot again then bootloop happened again, luckily I had backup this time
I'm facing the same problem right now with my Redmi 4A. How did you solve it? Doing a factory reset?
I am currently facing a similar issue, but the culprit here for me is the facebook app, as soon as I install it from play store, it sends my samsung gt-i9082 (running cm13) into an instant bootloop, I tried deleting the facebook app's data from the twrp recovery's file manager.
but even then it kept on rebooting.
I had tested this even after a complete format of my device, including internal storage and external storage. even removing external storage, still as soon as the app was installed it went bootloop.
It's strange for me, cause it's the same rom and the same device, that was running the same app version before i format it to clean everything.
I would have doubt a data clash between my older files, but that was ruled out after a complete format. I have no clue why this is happening.
Edit: The only difference between my previous and the new installation is that I used deltagapps before and I am using opengapps now.
I will try with deltagapps again to see if it is sorted.
Edit 2: Well it did stopped the bootloop with the facebook app, but then again it started giving me the same issue with all the other random app I try to install(All those apps that previously were working on the same rom, same device).
Now the only suspect remains is the emmc of the device, maybe that is failing or got bad sector. strange that I haven't seen any issue on the device forum about this. Bad Luck, It reaches it's end.
