Hi All, haven't been able to update or download anything for last few days it just sits on downloading and doesn't do anything and I have to cancel the download. It's the same on my tablet and Sgs3 I can download from Samsung application store perfectly. I Have tried clearing cache and data for download manager and Play Store application so all in all it points to a problem with the Play Store itself. I know they had a major update last week to change the way it updates apps maybe this has caused and error?
Anyone any ideas or having same problem?
Thanks

Try clearing data AND cache for Google Play, reboot, and then try again. Settings>Applications>All>Google Play>Clear Data and clear cache.

EDIT: posting in the right section is always helpful :)

I try to open the play store and it goes to the black screen as if its starting up, but then just closes and goes to my home screen. I haven't been able to do any updates and d/l any apps for a few days too. I was planning on master resetting my phone from scratch this weekend. or should i wait for Google to fix it?

Did you find a solution? I've not updated now in weeks, thinking it would just fix itself. But I'm getting round to trying to find a solution now and I just have no idea what to do.

Are you able to solve the prob after clearing and rebooting? I have the same problem too! couldn't enter the app at all. once i clear data and cache, my home screen prompts out a msg box saying 'Unfortunately, the process com.google.process.gapps has stopped.' Plus, an OK button. what happen!?!?:-\

What fixed it for me on Samsung galaxy S3 running Android version 4.1.1 was:

Settings > Application Manager > All > Locate Download Manager (will be at the the bottom of the list when it's disabled) and enable it

Hope that helps :cool:

I am having this same issue still. I have tried all the suggestions in this thread. (cleared caches, gone through the play store website, enabled download manager, etc.) Nothing has worked and i seem to be out of options other then doing a factory reset, which i realllly dont want to do.

Any other suggestions or solutions out there. It is very frustrating. I have only owned the tablet about three weeks and everything worked fine when i got it.
