Market my apps server error

When I go into market and select my apps, I get this error:
A server error has occured. Retry,or cancel and return to the previous screen.
I tried clearing data, but still does the same.
Anybody ever have this problem, anybody know a way to fix this?

Did you also clear cache for the Market app? Have you tried using a different internet connection, i.e., switch from 3G to WiFi or vice versa? Have you rebooted and reestablished your connection? Maybe use CWM to reset permissions? Backup the app, then uninstall/reinstall?
Try those (probably that order is "easiest" to "biggest pain in the butt") and see if one of 'em works.
If none of that works, what system changes have you done since the last time you successfully used Market and My Apps? Did you apply any patches, switch kernels, install a whole new ROM?

Yeah I tried all that. I was taking out the new market and putting back the old. After I did that I cleared data, and problem started. I restored my backup and it still gave me that problem. How I fixed it was backing up my apps with titanium backup, formatting all data in clockwork. And re-signing in to my google account, then batch restore all apps only in titanium backup. Only restoring data on certain apps.
Everything is back to normal, I believe it had something to do with getting messed up on googles end. Everything is good now.

Titanium Backup keeps crashing, am i alone?

Woke up today just to see that Titanium Backup had crashed during the scheduled backup tonight. Since then i haven't been able to do anything with it!
Sometimes it crashes right off the start, sometimes i can start a backup and have it crash about ~12-14% in. I tried going in to the settings and checking the "AUTO, indirect" setting that they recommend if you're having problems, but that didn't help either. (And it took me 3 tries to get in to the settings without it crashing!)
I've tried wiping all the app data, re-installing it, installing an older version (that they suggest on their website if having issues). I also tried re-setting the super user permissions for it. None of which helps!
I haven't found any information on it yet, so i assume i'm alone with this? Have anyone else been having the same issue?
Just emailed the support, but i imagine it will take at least a week for them to reply (if they do).
So, any suggestions?
EDIT: I just timed it and it appears to crash after approx 30 seconds, no matter what i do in the application. I Hope the developers sees this.
DOUBLE EDIT: It appears to be working again after updating to v4.9.0.1.

I don't do scheduled backups but the app hasn't failed me yet doing it manually.

well id suggest connecting to your pc and backup the titaniumbackup folder (that way you know all your backups are safe)
then making a nandroid backup
then flashing another ROM or just wiping and reflashing the same ROM you're using

The backups i have stored are outdated now, i've changed a lot since the last update. The plan all along was to do a titanium backup, sync it to dropbox, flash this rom, and then restore all my apps etc. So i'm really kind of out of options now, unless i download everything manually and set everything up again. Doesn't sound very fun tbh. I might just try to find an alternative to titanium, but i'd really like to get it working again. Nothing seems to help.

You are not alone!
Hi, just to say you are not alone. Your case 99% similar to mine.
Just encountered this freeze after the app update on 18/19 Mar and the app will freeze even when I do nothing in the app. And yes, what a coincidence, the app when backup under schedule has stopped (with screen save off) at 14% completion.
Tried the method of deleting the app data and reinstall the app and even worse, now the app stops right when launching after a moment of black screen.
Already filed email and log file to support hopefully there will be an answer...

Hi, I'm also having exactly the same problem with TBU. Am on the pro version.
This has been a problem for about a week now. Not sure if it doesn't play nicely with CM9 or the kernel i'm running. What are you guys running? I may re-flash stock ICS and see if it still gives me problems. Quick question, does reflashing stock ICS remove root? I read somewhere it does and just want to get some different opinons.
Am running a CM9 nightly with Franco Kernal on GMS Galaxy Nexus.

I am also on pro version. Mine is at stock 4.0.2.
And yes, if you re-flash stock you lose root and have to re-root.
I am very very suspecting the crash is something related to the license checking of pro-key so that will explain why the program will crash in 20-30 sec without any special action doing or launching in the app. Just my guess... Hope the support will answer back shortly...

Thanks for the help, have uninstalled for now, will you post if the dev gets back to you?
Interesting that it's happening across a range of different setups.

Anybody hove a solution yet?

Oh my god! It works!!!!! I love you @andQlimax!
To all: Yes, the problem solved after I clear the cache and data of the play store. Beware that I also cleared out data of titanium backup before that when tackling the problem, but you may not need to...

IT WORKS!!!!!!!

Thanks, been without backups since play came. I had tried to clear Google Play Store cache but not data and that fixed it.

Finally my issue got solved

Thank you very much, guys!
After a few days of desperate waiting for an update of TB, you made my day. Clearing caches and data of Titanium and Google Play solved the problem.

I would've never solved this big distress without you guys, you r my saaaaaaaviors, my superheroes

[Q] Google account not showing phone as being used recently

I'm trying to get my phone visible on the android device manager, but it looks like Google's servers haven't seen my phone since I bought it in June.
Rather, I'm looking at my Device manager in my google account and when I look at the devices, it shows my S4, but it says "Last activity seen on: Jun..."
Incidentally, I probably rooted my phone around that time. Actually, I soft bricked it, recovered it by a Kies reflash, and then rooted it.
I've tried some of the usual stuff that's suggested to do for Android Device Manager- uncheck "allow wiping the phone" then wipe data on Play Services, reset, recheck "allow wipe" reset again. But that doesn't help.
I've also tried removing my google account from the phone then reinstalling, to no avail.
So, I'm at wit's end. How do I get my phone showing up on Google?
Incidentally, this is mostly stock ROM, except for the rooting. Admittedly, I did restore a lot of stuff via a Titanium Backup from my previous phone, that's why I figured an account wipe then reinstall should help- I just added it back- didn't use Titanium Backup to restore anything.
I'm reluctant to wipe the phone completely to get it showing up again, so what else can anyone suggest?
edit: a bit more data: it shows the phone last seen while I was on vacation- read: a week after I rooted and restored the thing, so root and Titanium Backup might not be relevant there.

Factory reset. If that doesn't work, odin back to stock.

Yeah, factory reset is pretty much the nuclear option. Admittedly, with a Titanium Backup, it's not that bad, but still, time consuming.
Instead, I fixed it by not only clearing the data of play services, I also uninstalled the updates for it- didn't seem to help- and cleared the data for Google Services Framework. Reset, re-allow locations, and it started working.
Hopefully this also fixes my gmail polling issue/lack of push.

[Q] Crashing apps after restore

Yesterday my phone was acting weird - Poweramp was starting at boot, Poweramp told me it couldn't verify my license, I had no media volume (but system volume was ok), my lock screen was being bypassed on boot, S-voice was starting whenever I put headphones in, no sound from bluetooth, etc. Weird stuff.
After troubleshooting and coming up empty, I took a backup with Clockworkmod, then restored to a backup I took on the 4th. When I rebooted, apps started crashing non-stop. Not only gapps, but also twitter, dropbox, etc. Every 1-3 seconds I'd get a couple of crashes. I also get a lot of notifications (not in crash windows) that it "cannot open database". These appear across the bottom of the screen, like when I'm notified that an app has received superuser access. It happens so often I can't even shut the phone off - I have to pull the battery.
I restored to a backup I took on January 10th and got the same thing. I restored back to the backup I'd just taken, same thing. I wiped the cache and the dalvik cache, same thing. I reflashed my gapps, but that didn't fix anything. I tried to remove my google account, but I can't get into the menu because the phone's crashing too fast.
So far, the only way I can get a usable phone is by performing a factory reset and setting up my phone again.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can get my data back? I have an app backup from January some time using My Backup Pro, but I don't want to lose a month's worth of data if at all possible.
I'm running a rooted Galaxy S3 (AT&T) on Stock 4.3. I've been messing with Xposed for the past couple days, but disabled almost all of the modules while trying to troubleshoot the issue (and it seemed stable before it started acting weird while I was shoveling snow). Also, only the most recent backup has Xposed installed.
Thanks in advance.
UPDATE: I was able to remove my Google account and this initially stopped the Google apps from constantly crashing, but other apps continued to crash. After a minute or so, the Google apps started crashing again.
I was able to restore a much older backup (4.0) and this seemed to work ok for the few minutes I tested it.
I did a factory reset on 4.3, which seemed ok, but when I started restoring my apps through My Backup Pro, android.process.acore started crashing every second or so. I cleared the cache, but it didn't fix the problem (in fact, it started crashing on the lock screen, which hadn't happened before.)
I'm starting to wonder if I need to flash a new ROM because something not backed up by Clockworkmod is FUBAR.

As far as I can tell, the causes of my issues were:
I think my CWM was messed up. When I flashed CM11 to get a working ROM, I saw there was an update pending. I installed that and it seemed to fix the problem with making new backups. I don't think I'll be able to recover the backups from before, but at least I can make new backups now.
I think the android.process.acore issue was the result of the My Backup Pro backup being from CM10.1 when I was trying to restore to Stock 4.3. I think there was some system data in there that wasn't compatible with stock. Selecting only the 3rd party apps that I "needed" to install seemed to resolve this.
I don't know about the original sound issue. I got a ticket response from Poweramp saying it was a Google account mismatch issue. I hadn't made any changes, so my guess is that somehow the account was corrupted. I don't know if removing/adding the account would have made a difference, since the whole thing blew up before I could try. It's also possible that something else got corrupted that caused the volume issue. Volume works fine now that I have a new ROM, so it was definitely not a hardware issue with the headphone jack. I backup restore or factory reset might have fixed the problem, but I don't know for sure.

All SMS apps crashing

Hello! Yesterday I decided to update my OP3 to the latest version, and as usual, I rooted it and restored with titanium backup. Everything went as usual, but today I decided to send a SMS and the stock app kept crashing, so I tried to use messenger (from Facebook) it crashed when I enabled SMS.
Later, I searched about this and found that i needed to clean data and cache, but when I checked on the application section I had none, the cache and data were empty.
I've already tried to use 3rd party apps to send messages, but all crashed the same way as the stock.
How can I fix this? I don't want to factory reset again my phone, is a pain to restore the data.

Thats been an issue with the OTA updates. Seems not to work right (never advised anyone to do ota as a single millisecond of data loss causes issues)
You may have to end up Factory resetting. Also TIBU messes up google messaging service so you will end up with apps not giving notifications properly.

People have said that reinstalling the apps without wiping the data works. I just set everything up again. But then I like most developers use less then 10 apps on our devices other then the stock apps.

Ok. I'll try a factory reset and reinstaliing the apps without TiBu. I'll get back to you when I finish this.

It worked, thanks!
