Google News and Weather app and widget not working. - Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is anyone else having a problem with this? I've tried clearing the data, uninstalling and reinstalling updates... The screen says, "Gathering your news...", but it seems to be stuck there. When I hit refresh, it says, "Your app settings can't be updated right now. Sign back in and try again." The widget is completely blank.

check for updates on Google app or Google play services.

Hi! Did you find any solution? Same problem & error message over here - doesn't sync anymore while telling me that I should logon again.
Btw: of course there is no update available neither for the app nor for play services.

Same problem here since a week ago

There are several feedbacks on Google play (German), what about the "international" playstore?
One guy fixed it by deleting some of his personal topics - the database was able to update itself again afterwards. But didn't work for me...

It's been awhile since I posted the question, so my memory is a little fuzzy, but I believe the last software update was what fixed the problem. I would suggest running a repair through PC Companion, basically reinstalling everything.

I deinstalled and reinstalled the app, cleared the cache... No improvement yet. And to reinstall everything is exactly what I would prefer to avoid.

how do you even start the app !!

Hi, I get the issue of 'News and Weather' not updating occasionally, on my LG Nexus 4.
Deleting cache, restarting didn't seem to help, while other apps seem to work.
The reason seems to be lack of adequate 'work space' of atleast 500MB. I found this issue coming up every time the available space approaches about 400MB. The solution I have found is to remove unwanted apps, and back up data from other apps such as WhatsApp etc. on to a PC (or external space such as cloud) and purge them from the phone memory. This certainly seems to work.
I found that low storage space can impact other apps such as mail - the app may not display attachments, for example.
A 1 GB free space seems good. Best

[Q] removing uninstalled apps from market

when i open up the 'download' page on the market. It seems to show every app i've had on my phone. Even ones that have 'failed' or have been uninstalled show up at 'free'.
Is there anyway to remove these? I've tried clearing the cache/data from the market but still nothing.

Mine usually disappear within a day...or sooner. Sometimes they are gone within minutes when I uninstall something.

Come on people, try Googling your questions before posting them here.
I did a Google search for "clear android market download history" and found this page on the second result:
http://www.brighthub.com/mobile/google-android/articles/95060.aspx

once "android.process.acore" error triggered - phone is wasted

installed 200 aps -entered passwords and made the phone ready for business use :fingers-crossed:
then i started....
PAYPAL triggered the nasty "ANDROIDROCESS:ACORE HAS STOPPED" error
the error prevents the complete use of phonecalling function and email and hangouts
other programs that trigger the error on lolipop 5.0 - v20f on D855 are
facebook/ outlook / messenger /
this bug makes the phone unusable. even lg support team have no solution
help ?
I am having the exact same error and the only thing that gets the error to stop popping up is if I disable "contacts storage" and of course then the phone isn't much use. I was able to download a 3rd party dialer and make a phone call but that's not a fix. I am using cm12 on a tmobile note 4 and have completely reset and wiped the device multiple times with this issue and it is only happening in the last few days and so far only when I use a cm12 rom (no error on a touchwiz rom yet). If I reset the phone it works fine and I can load up all the apps that I want and it will work sometimes for minutes or sometimes hours but once I get that error randomly it's all done and I have to eventually reset. I have searched and searched but the solutions that I have found are not fixing this issue for me. So far I have
1. complete reset and installed apps one by one to see if any caused the issue
2. cleared data settings, apps, contacts, contacts storage, dialer, google contacts sync, and the only one that did anything was disabling contacts storage. It seems to stop the issue completely but I cant use contacts or dialer then.
I have tried using PA stock gapps package and gapps-lp-20141109 package and both have this issue on nightlies from 2/3, 2/1, and 2/4. I even went through my gmail contacts online with my PC and cleared most of the info there to no success. I do not think this is an issue with the ROM but just frustrated as I want to us cm12 and can't because of this.
i found out that deinstalling facebook solves the isue completely and before deinstall the programm that triggered the error
so the efforts are much less
and if you need Facebook, you can install Facebook Lite.

All you can do is use Titanium Backup to backup all APK+Data and restore it to a freshly wiped device
Its a pain but its better than having to reinstall and reconfigure most of it again
I had the exact same problem but I figured a way to resolve it quickly. I have a Samsung Galaxy s4 and to cancel the error I just opened settings>application manager and by pressing the menu button on the bottom left hand corner of my phone the option "reset app preferences" appeared and as soon as I clicked it the error had stopped for good
My LG MS330 has same error in a loop

Can no longer side load apps from Google APK

I have unknown sources checked. For some reason the past few weeks I haven't been able to sideload apps. They download but nothing happens when I click on install so I can only cancel. Anyone have a fix?

If you're using any app that puts a filter over the screen, such as Twilight, then it will render the install button unusable as a security precaution. Either deactivate your screen filter when installing an app or whitelist the package installer in your screen filter app.

Thanks. I solved that problem. It was actually Lux. Do you happen to know how to solve my 504 error message for installing Facebook on the M8?

Try clearing data and cache of the Play Store.

Can't sign into Google Chrome after Oreo update

Hi, BND-L21 here, recently updated to Oreo through Firmware Finder. Ever since the update, I can't sign into Google Chrome. When I tap "Sign in" and type my email address, I get a "This account already exists on your device" error. I tried removing my Google Account and adding it again through Chrome, but I get the same error. Same goes for all my Google accounts.
I also tried resetting Chrome, installing the Chrome Beta app, removing permissions, enabling all permissions... same thing. I'm at a loss here! All other apps seem to be functioning just fine. I tried Googling for an answer but couldn't find anything useful. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

The only solution that comes to mind is wiping your device, it solved the issue for me. Something got corrupted inside google apps data, it's happened for me in the past when I was installing gapps packages over others which were already present, sometimes it causes that.

Same issue here and Chrome is very unstable and slow. The scrolling feels like i have a 5 years old smartphone. Hopefully they fix the issues soon.
I have fixed the issue by doing a factory reset ..... Now it works normally again but Chrome is still slow and freezing. (2 tabs open only)

Indeed! :good: It's way smoother
Oh wow, is the only real solution to do a factory reset? That's really annoying! Chrome Beta doesn't allow me to sign in either...
Edit: Rolling Google Play Services back to the factory version and clearing the cache seems to have fixed the issue for me!
Uninstall google play service fixed for me
I got huawei mate 10 pro, i am already on android 8.0 since day 1. However just recently i got the same issue. Uninstall google play service fixed for me. but what's that mean is google pay will lost all settings and you will need to add your credit back there again.
Also after few days later the same problem happened again.

Device Personalization Service crash since UI 2.1

Everytime I reboot my phone I get the error that this service has stopped. One thing I know it impacts is trying to share anything from apps, Chrome, etc.
Frequent contacts and apps used no longer appear at the top. Frequent contacts are gone completely. I have tried upgrading the version to the latest and greatest on apkmkrror, but the same thing happens. There is also no cache to clear for the app.
Anyone else seeing this or found a solution?

Did you try uninstalling updates for the app?
I did. I also tried completely uninstalling and reinstalling. Still getting errors.
