App updates keep failing

First it was ilomilo, now Flixster. An update shows available, appears to download fine, then it just seems to abort and nothing happens. The app then continues to show update available. And if I retry the status goes from Pending to Installing, but the progress bar never moves and the app never updates.
Tried everything short of a factory reset, and the only solution seems to be to uninstall the app completely and reinstall.
Is there another fix? Some apps have still updated fine.

i have had the problem for a while now.... theres some games as well

When it happens to me, and it has happened about 3 times now, I delete the app and then reinstall it.

This bug happened when a developer update the app, and change the name of this app. For example, surfcube browser is update to 1.2 and the developerschange the name of the app in surfcube 3d browser.
i have the same bug!!

I have only noticed this will trial versions of apps. If you have a trial app, then you have to uninstall and re-download to update it. As for ilomilo and some other games, you have to use Wi-Fi to download the game. There is a file size limit(don't know what it is) but that was the only way I could get Harvest, Earth Worm Jim, and the Ilomilo update from my phone.

Try deleting the market cache. That's resolved that issues for me on the few occasions it has popped up.

Yeah, I have only noticed this when using trial apps as well so I think that's the problem. Maybe its Microsoft's idea of making you want to buy the app as the trial version update procedure is annoying lol

It's happened with free apps also.

Being unable to update to update trial apps is quite a well documented bug with the marketplace and is going to be fixed

this issue can be solved by uninstalling and re-installing the app.

Please re-install Skype

Running one of the latest CM7 nightlies (#77 I think) on my i9000M. Updated to the latest Skype a few days ago, and now every time I attempt to log in I get this error message "Please re-install Skype." I tried reinstalling Skype from scratch, to no avail. What up with this?

Yeah, this happened in many ROMs and firmwares, not only on your CM7...I dont know why, even is newest original Skype or modded...Some bug ?
Regards

Same problem, wiping data/reinstalling didn't work.
Vibrant running CM7.

Has anyone found a solution for this? I am having the same issue on my Samsung Vibrant running CM7.

Anyone else?

Sure, See attached.
EDIT.
So after tinkering a bit it turns out that i was in fact entering my password wrong and was not able to sign in at all. Now i have been able to sign in the last 2 times, but the 3rd time i got the reinstall warning and the 4th time i was able to sign in... Weird.

Hahaa can't really see anything.
Damn, that's the only thing skype writes..
W/com.skype.cp( 3232): skypekit crashed during sign in, its beyond the normal process now

Exactly the same issue here too...a fix would be nice...

I had this problem and reinstalling or wiping skype data didn't help.
After wiping phone data problem was fixed.

I have been getting it the past couple days. I cleared my cache and 8 hrs no message. I am on the latest update from the play store. Stock firmware

Scratch that just started happening again

Happening to me since the update during last week. This morning (about 10am GMT 16th nov) another update was available. Installed it with faith, but to no avail sadly. Still happening, with almost every app. Shockingly this shows how far it roots itself into the system doesn't it?

What update are you getting? As far as I know the SM-900T has not received an OTA yet.

Just started happening to me just now, and Google+ won't open at all anymore. Weird. I've been having trouble with Google Play Services acting funny lately, so I assume it's related to the latest update of that (4.0.33). Only other issue I am having, and it isn't really an issue, is that Google Settings app icon keeps turning grey instead of green. Seems to work fine though.

I just updated to a newer version of Google + via the play store. I am no longer having this issue now.

The version I have currently is 4.2.3.56698342, released on play store this saturday just gone (16th), and this is the latest version on there. It's still giving major grief. I can't so much as delete a gallery photo, open a map, anything, without a ten second hang, followed by the unfortunately stopped message.

Did you try clearing the cache. I was having this a lot too. Since clearing cache and updating I have not had this issue happen at all for the last few days

Yes tried that a few times. I notice on the play store several of the comments are from s3 users as well as s4, yet a friend of mine with an s3 has had no issues at all.
Very odd.

Google has stopped

"Google has stopped" messages are driving me mad, had it for quite a while and assumed a fix would roll out as I report it every time.
Have tried Force Stop and clear cache and data on every Google app I can find, including Chrome.
One of the solutions I saw online was a factory reset, but rather try everything else first.
Anyone had the same and resolved it without a factory reset?
Redmi Note 5 Pro, not rooted, running Android 8.1 and Miui 9.6
Tia.

Same phone same issue, just drive 200 miles with the pop up coming up every 15 minutes on sat Nov, very annoying!
Also noticed "ok Google" isn't working via voice command anymore

Yep, can overlook pop-ups while it's in my hands, but car cradle and Waze is a real ball ache.
I don't use Ok Google.
What have you tried to fix it?

Only reboot and quick Google search so far, kids are keeping me busy atm. If you find fix please let me know though!
Fwiw was working fine the other day and nothing major had been updated, infact the only updates were Google drive and calender two days ago so not sure what's caused it.

Same issue here after updating to MIUI 9.6

I've been having the exact same error ever since I updated to Android Oreo a few days ago but on a Redmi 5 Plus device :/

same issue
only i haven't done any update as I was running on mobile data only. reported to miui but they want additional information because they cannot reproduce the issue

Excluding Google app from battery saving should solve this issue, at least for me it worked!

Hi, which Google app exactly, half my problem is I don't know which "Google app has stopped", what needs to be changed?

Google voice assistant, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox&hl=en
Just exclude from battery saving.

I don't use that app and my Battery Saving mode is off above 60%.
Just got another Google has stopped as I type and charge on 96%, so I don't know whats causing this.

Uninstall the updates to Google app. Something is causing this, I was getting this on Pixel Experience 8.1 as well, until I rolled back to prior version. Same for Android Messages, screen would just flicker black and would not open app properly until i rolled back to previous app version.

Thanks. Bro It works for me a simple updale

Question Wi-Fi going off and on. Happening to several Pixel 6's

I know there were a bunch of topics on this earlier in the year but I have yet to find a solution and here's the weird thing...
I have a P6 Pro (Android 12.1) coworker has a P6 (Android 13) and both of us when at home (different homes lol) will have the Wi-Fi turn off, and a few seconds later turn back on again.
The problem for both of us started about a month ago. This is way too coincidental. Neither of us had this problem before and since we are on two separate but similar phones running two different versions of Android could this be a Google connectivity related app that is causing this problem? Maybe a bad update to something?
Btw I've tried all the fixes mentioned in previous posts. Everything but a factory reset and nothing has worked. It only happens once or two a day but it's annoying

I noticed that as well during the last couple of weeks. This wasn't happening before for sure. Still no idea what's causing it.

Thank you. The Google Connectivity Service app that helps manage Wi-Fi was updated about a month ago.
Since we all have different versions I'm thinking this has to be app related. Nothing else makes sense

I had the same issue back on 12.1 on my P4a...and oh man did it annoy the sht outta me! I too assumed it was prolly app related. I spent ages trying to chase it down. Then google offered me $300 trade-in plus a pair of Pixel Buds for a P6a...suddenly I just stopped looking.

Did you try disabling the Google connectivity from app info?

Not yet but may that later tonight

For now I tried rolling back to v53 of Google connectivity service to check if that's the culprit.

Since it also happens with GrapheneOS which doesn't have that, its not the culprit.

I'm using the modem from qpr beta. Is anyone else with the problem using this one?

Modem firmware isn't relevant to wifi.

I don't want to jinx it but after happening to me every day for a few weeks it stopped. Been a week now with no changes made on my end.
This had to be a Google app. They are always getting updated and not always for the better
