Android Market Error

Everytime I try to purchase an app or song or book from the market I get "An error has occurred. Please try again." Its been happening since about October. I've tried clearing the cache on the market, I tried factory resetting, I even tried wiping everything (sd and emmc included.) The log mentions something about mismatched uids.

Reposted to QandA, sorry for the mix up. Mods feel free to delete.

I was getting the authentication error and wouldn't log me in....I reflashed Gapps and I could get into Market again but when I try to download or update an app, it just sits there and says, "downloading......"
But my buddy who is on Sprint is able to download apps just fine.

Have you tried contacting Google via email. It might be on their end.

I believe this can be fix like so:
Go to: settings/applications/manage applications/running app./tap:download manager,then tap clear data,and force to stop,after that go back to home,restart your phone,also clear cache/data on market,I hope this will fix your problem...let me know.

Thanks for the suggestion, but I am still having the problem. I'll just use the web interface for now.

I just downloaded the MarketFix app from the Android Market. It moves the market cache to the SD card. Problem solved...give it a shot.

I had that same problem when the credit card information for Google Wallet had to be updated.
Try entering or updating your Wallet info online via your computer.

Thanks for the tip, but still a no go.

wrong thread, sorry

I'm having the same exact problem as the OP, anyone know of any other possible solution or tricks?
By the way I have a different device than OP, mine is a cheap chinese tablet called teclast p75.

android market place error
unfortunately i also have the issue with the android market place on my kindle fire. i installed the market place, google wallet is actual, but i am even not able to download free apps. after accepting and clicking on "download" i always get the message
"appname" could not be downloaded due to an error. does anybody have an idea? I am really lost.

have you been updated to the 3.4.7 version of the market yet? that's to anyonehaving this issue

I got same proplem. i'v update market, clear cache, clear everything and stil can't buy anythings from google play

so?
I am having this problem now. on og droid steel droid rom.

I had a similar problem once on my kindle and eventually what i wound up doing was going into recovery and flashing the ROM from scratch like it was brand new. Wipe System/Data/DataData/Cache/Dalvik/anything else you like to wipe and reflash the ROM (and the newest applicable gapps) and see if that helps. It did the trick for me, it is an odd error and I feel like the easiest thing is to start from the beginning when something like that happens and hope that you don't run into it again.
EDIT: of course make a nandroid first, in case it doesn't work

I had the mismatced UIDs issue when I installed a stock 2.3.4 Rom. It alerted me on the first boot up, then never alerted me again. I had to install a different Rom because many features didn't work. Hope this helps!

I did try reflashing the stock ROM (provided by the producer) without success, still having the same problem.
You mention reflashing the gapps, would that only work if you got the Cynogenmod installed or will they work with any ROM?

Were you able to root/flash this through recovery? With stock ROMs the GAPPS are typically included (unless the company making the tablet wishes to use a different market so they don't have to pay royalties to google).

Yes it does ship with gapps but the user mentioned re-installing them (maybe even upgrading). I wondered that if you can find different gapps it could make it work but I don't know how you would go about it. The gapps for Cynogen are in a zip that has to be installed using Cynogen recovery console, not sure how to install them manually.

If you want to install a newer market you can do it as long as you're rooted. That being said, so long as you're not on an ancient device (maybe you're that lucky with the chinese tablet) it is supposed to update automatically. At any rate, if you have SU then you just need to drop the vending.apk into /system/app and give it the following permissions:
[X][X][ ]
[X][ ][ ]
[X][ ][ ]
EDIT: You might only need marketupdater.apk things have changed since they changed the market to googleplay so I am not as familiar with it as I used to be when I originally rooted/ added the market to my Kindle Fire
All I do anymore to get gapps is flash the gapps.zip through recovery but I don't know a whole lot about your chinese tablet so I can't really give input on its recovery setup haha

[SOLVED] CM10.1 apps + data loss on reboot

I've had a problem ever since I've tried using 4.2 ROMs, such as CM10.1 and AOKP. I install the ROM, load my apps onto it, and when I reboot, not only does the reboot take a ridiculous amount of time (sometimes over 5 minutes) but some of the apps will have had their data wiped and some will just disappear completely!
Finding this really frustrating not being able to reboot without fear of losing apps and data, I decided to logcat the boot. The logcat is full of things like this:
Code:
W/PackageManager( 420): Package com.teslacoilsw.launcher at /system/app/com.teslacoilsw.launcher-1.apk reverting from /data/app/com.teslacoilsw.launcher-1.apk: new version 20003 better than installed 19504
W/PackageManager( 420): Package source /data/app/com.teslacoilsw.launcher-1.apk does not exist.
W/PackageManager( 420): Couldn't delete native library directory /data/app-lib/com.teslacoilsw.launcher-1

W/PackageManager( 420): Permission com.android.launcher.permission.UNINSTALL_SHORTCUT from package com.teslacoilsw.launcher ignored: original from com.android.launcher
That same error frequents throughout the boot, just with different package names for all the apps on my phone, both system and user apps. Here's a logcat of a boot.
At first I thought maybe it was because when I upgraded from 4.1 to 4.2 and restored my apps+data through TitaniumBackup that maybe the 4.1 data was screwing with something in 4.2, so I did a clean wipe of the ROM, downloaded the apps from the Play Store and didn't restore anything from TitaniumBackup, yet it was still doing it! I've tried wiping and reinstalling about 5 times now and I keep losing some apps+data on a reboot.
Can anyone who understands logcat a bit better than me or someone help me out?

well...
only errors i see are:
Code:
E/Gmail.LabelManager( 2334): Unable to get label ^i for account [email protected]
E/Gmail ( 2334): Couldn't find label: ^i
are you using nova launcher? stable or beta? i was a user of nova launcher (switched to apex a few days ago) on CM; never seen such warnings.
my advice would be start fresh: flash stock images through fastboot, formatting the partitions before flashing them. update your bootloader to latest version if needed.
then flash latest twrp (can't suggest cwm version, but i assume latest non-touch would be the most stable, although some will say otherwise), and reflash your rom.
install fewer apps at the same time, rebooting in between.

Wait so the whole "couldn't delete data-lib" thing is normal..?
Yeah using nova, beta builds.
Hmm, okay I'll give flashing stock a try. How do I go about updating the bootloader? IIIRC I think there was a bootloader img in the stock folder, is it that?

That seems to have worked. I didn't realise it would wipe my sdcard though, so I lost everything including over 10,000 texts :/ all I have is a TB backup from a week ago and my camera pics that dropbox auto uploaded. Oh well, can't do anything now, thanks a lot for your help

Go to
/data/data/
and search for your
com.application-address.whatever-it-may-be
Some of them you can tell what they are just by the names, the others, google-em.
If you wish to keep the information that it contains for the app, I recommend making a copy of it first.
Delete it
Install the application, it'll work, trust me.
Now replace it with your copy.
Done.

But it didn't works for me, after this i got problem with package lost in google play store. Sometimes i got LOW STORAGE info, but it is fake, cause i could install other apps, much bigger than dropbox - so i have space to install.
I delete folder com.dropbox from:
/data/data
/data/usr/0/
/data/system
every dropbox folder
I tried to install dropbox from official homepage, i get the app on my phone, but installation is not finish. I also tried to restore backup of Dropbox via titanium backup, but it stuck on the restoring (app only and same for app + data)
I don't have no idea what is wrong. I did also FIX APK Permission from 4EXT Recovery without any result.
Here is my logcat:
Code:
I/SystemServer( 418): DropBox Service

Any sollution? I am working with it about few hours... Thanks for help.
I almost forgot, after some restarts and clean dalvick-cache my Titanium Backup was gone, and i had to install it again, strange situation when app suddenly dissappear, any fix for it too?
Update:
I tried to install via terminal emulator but got message:
Code:

Errors while trying to use TWRP

I have been trying to flash some files recently through TWRP, but I always get a string of red errors complaining about how some Chrome Canary files/directories don't exist.
Here is the error code: "Error opening: 'data/data/com/chrome.canary/cache/Cache/{any file that belongs here}' (No such file or directory)"
I have tried many things including:
1. Factory Reset my device (Would reset but would show all the errors along with it)
2. Installing a custom ROM which should overwrite those missing directories (But failed to flash because of those errors)
3. Installing Chrome Canary (It wasn't installed originally so it somehow stayed on the device since previous wipe)
P.S. Chrome Canary couldn't open, it would just crash before the opening animation finished
4. Delete the 'com.chrome.canary' directory through ES File Explorer (Would just result in "error:39" (No results show up for that error online))
5. Flash an updated version of TWRP (Flashed, along with the errors showing)
*All the above attempts resulted in not succeeding, and any attempts made through TWRP would show the long list of errors*
It seems that the 'com.chrome.canary' directory is "surviving" any wipe attempts, its the only directory that stays on the phone after a wipe.
Anyone have any suggestions? Or has anyone else experienced this issue (With Chrome Canary or any other app)?

General Hard attempt of installing OpenGapps to LineageOS 18.1

Firstly, the "system" partition of official LineageOS 18.1 doesn't have enough free space for OpenGapps "stock".
Previously I've been using OpenGapps "pico" instead, then today I want to try to configure "stock" to exclude most of apps, only leaving out several wanted ones. There's an official tutorial for this: https://github.com/opengapps/opengapps/wiki/Advanced-Features-and-Options
I modified the example "Include" mode installation config, replacing "Include" with "Exclude" & commented out apps I want to install.
After several cycles of trial-and-error process, the OpenGapps installation process finally seemed to be complete without error.
However, the phone fell into bootloop after rebooting from TWRP...
Fortunately, I was still able to adb shell into the phone, and then I got these two lines from logcat:
Code:
11-06 10:21:35.139 5990 5990 E AndroidRuntime: *** FATAL EXCEPTION IN SYSTEM PROCESS: main
11-06 10:21:35.139 5990 5990 E AndroidRuntime: java.lang.IllegalStateException: Signature|privileged permissions not in privapp-permissions whitelist: {com.google.android.projection.gearhead (/system/app/AndroidAutoPrebuilt): android.permission.UPDATE_APP_OPS_STATS}
I was confused. I actually excluded "AndroidAuto" and (not mentioned in example config) "AndroidAutoPrebuiltStub" but these two unwanted apps were still automatically reinstalled during boot, even after manually deleting its files under TWRP & deleting its sections in /data/system/packages.xml. I also checked /system_root in TWRP & these two apps didn't show up there.
Finally I gave in. I commented out the lines which previously excluded these two unwanted apps in my OpenGapps config. But then the phone still fell into exactly the same bootloop syndrome.
After some googling, I edited /etc/permissions/privapp-permissions-google.xml - according to official docs, "as of Android 9, implementors must explicitly grant or deny all privileged permissions or the device won’t boot". So I added (seemed to be missing) "android.permission.UPDATE_APP_OPS_STATS" inside the "com.google.android.projection.gearhead" section.
Phew. After editing privapp-permissions-google.xml the phone finally got out of bootloop...

Ah, tried again, with "GearheadStub" included, while both "AndroidAuto" and "AndroidAutoPrebuiltStub" were excluded, this time the unedited privapp-permissions-google.xml didn't trigger a bootloop.
