google play server error

Hi all,
I fixed problem but you need to have rooted phone and install MarketEnabler app, here is a Google Play Server Error quick FIX http://viewoneworld.wordpress.com/2012/03/24/google-play-server-error-quick-fix - my blog post about it.
Its problem with some regional/provider specific markets/plays so you just need to fool it that you are from other region/provider...
Let me know if you have any problem with this fix...
Thanks.So It is Google Play shop issue not our devices.I sent e-mail to google play shop support but no reply yet.
I do not want to root my devices.It is google responsibility to provide support and allow google play shop to work globally not only in few regions.If Google will not fix this issue,I will say good buy to android and will buy Iphone.
I updated my post with US VPN solution that works even if device is not rooted http://viewoneworld.wordpress.com/2012/03/24/google-play-server-error-quick-fix check it out!
Thanks.I sorted out my issue.I am using my Galaxy note in Libya.Today I changed my Libyan SIM and used my Egypt SIM and Google play shop connected immidiatly.
Now I removed my Egypt Sim and using Libyan sim and it is working very well.It seems that Google restricted Few Regions/Countries to get access.
Wrong time settings !!
In my case this problem was solved with correcting the time settings. After last update my Note use to pick up wrong time with auto-time update. I corrected time and switched to manual time settings. Immediately the google play connected.
I added permanent fix solution for #GooglePlay server error on my blog post http://viewoneworld.wordpress.com/2012/03/24/google-play-server-error-quick-fix/
I got a notification that an installation failed while I was sleeping. (It failed, most likely, because my play store/services are broken at the moment.) I didn't request the installation and it's not an update.
-I'm running a trimmed stock ROM: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2720664
-My Google pass is decent, and I haven't been logging in on anything but my own hardware.
-I'm not running any other apps by this developer
-Google account security shows no strange, or even recent, logins
-Wifi was on and connected, bluetooth was off
-I'm on a new wifi network with weak security
Here's the app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=it.medieval.blueftp
Any insights or questions before I wipe?

Someone walked into your room and tried to download it while you slept. Don't know of any methods of accessing and controlling an Android phone without having other software previously installed first.
Yeah, my best guesses are:
a rogue app / ROM (though I've only installed apps from the play store)
a malfunction in the play store servers
a hacker sniffed my auth token for Google over wifi somewhere (I've been on a couple of public-ish networks lately)
I can't imagine a malfunction on the phone's end that would successfully trigger the install of a specific, new app.

Hi All,
Since my P9 got upgraded to EMUI5/Android 7 I am experiencing problems with Google Play.
-When on Wifi aeverything works perfectly BUT
- When on mobile network, GooglePlay Market can search, display results, pictures and etc but does not download anything, either new apps or updates to existing. It's just stuck in "Donwloading" but there is no progress, and the speed shown in my P9 status bar is 0B/s.
- All the other applications work on Mobile Network with no problems, i.e. I can browse, and etc.
Here's what I tried so far:
- Made sure both the Market and corresponding Service are given full trust + all permissions are granted,
- Both Market and its service have full data access (i.e. Mobile 4G and usual, WLAN, Roaming),
- Cleared all cash and data for both Market and its service,
- Removed my account, restarted the phone, re-added the account.
- Enabled data plan with stellar limit, added Market to exclusion from the plan, removed data plan (i.e. unlimited data).
- Checked permissions and access log to see if anything asked for something that was denied. Nothing.
- Contacted Huawei Support, heard I need to do steps above. Did them all again.
- Found on the internet some ideas about some settings that need to be changes in "Downloads" app to allow big files. But my downloads app doe snot have such setting.
- Found out that there should be some "Download Manager" app, found it in Service list, but there's no app with that name so I can't really open it.
Nothing works. That Market just wouldn't work on Mobile. It does not ask for anyhting, does not complain. Just gets stuck in "downloading" and does nothing, but on WiFi it works perfectly.
Please help!
PS. Everything worked before upgrade to EMUI5/Droid 7.
Phone info: Chineese bought P9-AL00, set to English language, All google apps downloaded and installed via the HiApp and then the Market. Upgrade to EMUI5/Droid7 was legit OTA upgrade (not some custom flash).
I experienced kinda the same problem. Go to Settings > Mobile data > Networked apps > System apps. Is Download Manager checked or unchecked? I had unchecked this by a mistake and it wouldnt let me download apps from Google Play store (stuck on downloading). Now that the checkmark is there i have no problems.
Nope, everything is OK there.
BTW, I got reply from Huawei Support. They say they don't know what the problem is and that I should talk to the vendor of Google Play. Very helpful.
Update: tried Factory reset. Installed Google Play from HiApp onto freshely rested P9 - same thing, n downloads from Mobile network.
so, i've tried a lot of methods and seems like the best i can do is logging into google play store, but not youtube and other google apps?
couldn't sign in
there was a problem communicating with google servers.
try again later.
need some guidance here, how do i get everything to work?
i found out that there's a bug for data vs wifi - you need to connect to wifi in order to sign in.

I can confirm this, apps like "Google", "Voice Search" and "Assistant" time out with errors when using data on T-Mobile, but it works on wifi. I can't navigate to a street using assistant over 4G, but if I go directly into the Maps app and use the microphone icon in Maps it works correctly.
Does anyone know if there's a fix for this?

is it just for Tmobile or google services don't work on any mobile data?
Go to Apps & Notifications > Google services
Same issue
I am having similar issues. But, at one point google play store was stuck on loading. Also, gmail wasnt sending or receiving emails.
The problem comes and goes. Like, just now, I couldn't load any YouTube videos.
When I connect on WiFi, all the problems go away and switching back to mobile data. Works for a bit.
It is also only Google services. Twitter, WhatsApp, chrome, all fine.
@op, what sim card slot are you using?
Got it to work.
Go to System -> Applications -> Google Services
And turn on "Allow to use Mobile Data"

If you go to Settings -> Applications -> See all ### Apps -> [scroll to and tap on Outlook app] -> Data Usage -> [turn on "Background Data", and "Unrestricted Data Usage" options]
Tell me if that works. I did this step for apps: Calendar [google version from Play Store], Carrier Services [from Play Store] Gmail, Google, Google Play, Google Play Services, Google Play Store, Google Services Framework, Hangouts.
I gave them all unrestricted data access and full permissions just to be safe. It's not like there's a risk of running out of battery on this phone, lol!
edit: I am on the China rom version and I see these settings.

I flashed into the WW version. So, all my little issues went away.
My instructions was for Google services.
Have your tried to go to battery optimisation and turning off optimisation for Outlook?
Also, there might be something under mobile manager to turn off as well?
Hi! I specifically made an account to reply, or rather, to reconfirm, that issues about this topic still persists in my phone.
Bought the Tencent Edition of the ROG Phone 2 few days back, I first encounter this issue yesterday when I open my Maps app and the map didn't load (grey screen) and at that time I was using my mobile data. Searched the net how to fix it, and did a few tweaks (mainly clearing cache, data and removing google account) and thankfully the map loads. However, another issue arises, I can't use Google app, Play Store and can't login on Google Maps. When I try to log in my account, I get the "There was a problem communicating with Google servers", and I assume most of you guys here had that exact problem.
I tried everything that almost every forums recommends. Starting from rebooting the phone, uninstalling updates from Google Play Store, clear the cache and storage of Google Play services and Google Play Store again, checked if my Apps & notifications/Google Services is on, turned on all notifications; permissions; background data and unrestricted data usage on all corresponding Google apps and services (Carrier Services, Google app, Google Play services, Google Play Store, Maps) and turned off battery optimization for the mentioned apps. Not any of the above worked for me, the only thing that resolves it is when I used Wifi to log in.
I know that this may be a minor issue and I know that I won't feel any of it hindering my daily phone usage. But I'm really bothered by the fact that something in my phone doesn't work normally as it should. I have been using Samsung phones for the longest time and haven't experienced such problems before. Is this really a bug and can't be fixed till who knows when, or is there something that I overlooked? Thanks much and sorry for the lenghty post. Blessings
cn version has this issue
fixed with ww rom
cn version is destinated to oriental market especcially
Thanks much for the help!
I don't have any experience in modding ROM, but I did find a guide here on how to do that. I'll think about whether I'm gonna try flashing my ROM or not, because... flashing ROMs will void the phone's warranty, yes?

If you bought a phone that was meant for the Chinese market in another country, you never really had a legit warranty right to begin with. (at least not with Asus, maybe with the seller if they have such policies)
Chinese ROMs have all Google services blocked. (Google services are banned in China). So you need to flash to WW ROM, sometimes seller will do it when they sell a Chinese phone to a different market, but apparently not in your case.

That makes sense lol.
Alright, I'll try flash my ROM later. Any noob-friendly guide you can recommend to me? Other than the guide by AryanAA.
And um, I know I can probably learn this if I searched for it, but does flashing your ROM resets/wipes your whole phone? And is there any major changes I should know (like maybe I won't be able to use some features ever again)? And is it kinda similar to rooting your phone?
Sorry for the noob questions, any help is much appreciated. Tqvm!

Hi was your issue fixed? I'm having same issues on Rog Phone 2, YouTube, Gmail, Google drive won't load with 3h/4g, they only load with WiFi. Have you for a fix ? Please reply
Hi guys, coming back to the forums after a long hiatus!
I have this issue also... Gapps don't work great on mobile data but perfect on WiFi... Some are fixed after clearing data but some are persistently bad such as gdrive which is important to me...
My phone is from ebay, its a tencent with a global rom and I'm in the UK...
Looking at my device info, it looks like my phone has a WW rom but a CN fingerprint... I will have the fingerprint changed today, update to 1910 and drop an update...

Once you've changed the fingerprint and fully converted to WW, the issues will all be fixed ????
