AC Question

Google play services new update Crashes all the time!

I opened snapchat and it asked to update google play services
Once i updated,
all google apps started to crash,
google now showing a connection problem error also
Sync is saying that the service is unavailable
snapchat log in temporarily unavailable (because of the sync error)

What i tried:
Everything..from a factory reset to clearing data and cache..removing my google account..flashing a new rom

each time i update everything google starts to crash when syncing

Welcome to Android Central! Which phone? Was it rooted to begin with? Were you running the stock ROM, or a custom ROM? Maybe the Google Play Services update doesn't play well with certain custom ROMs.

I'm having the same problem.

This happened after I had to hard reset because I was locked out of the screen from fingerprint sensor and backup password.

Right now: Google Play Services 5.4.x
Lollipop 5.0.2

I just got a Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge - International, unlocked.

I'm also having problems with a bunch of files stuck in updating... canceling them, only shows no buttons to open or uninstall or update... they just go back to updating again with Google Play.

Try going into the Play Services App and clear the data, then reset.

If that doesn't work, uninstall the updates on it and then reinstall from the play store. I had that issue a little while ago and I don't remember which of the two above worked, but one did
