Facebook messenger not installing on s4 - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello i have a unique problem with my s4. Few days ago my fb messenger app uninstalled by it's own or accidentally not sure about that, but now the problem is Facebook messenger not installing anymore. Tried factory reset but not working. Also wipe cache partition from recovery. But not working. From play store got 504 error and if i tried to install the apk directly, it shows app not installed. Messenger lite is working fine.
Can any one help me please ☹☹☹.
Btw phone is not rooted and never flash anything.
Current android version is 5.

[Q] HELP! Galaxy S4 on MF3 | Play Store Crash

Hey, everytime I open my Google Play Store (which I had to get from the internet) it opens for a while, until I try to download something and then is crashes. After it crashes by trying to download something and I try to re-open it, it just crashes on startup and I get a message saying "Unfortunately, Google Play Store has stopped." So this has been happening since yesterday when I used Clean Master to clear up some space on my device, I also link some apps to play using Titanium Backup (don't know if that has anything to do with it) and I attempted to uninstall Google+, and was successful also I applied a custom patch to the Play Store when it worked using lucky patcher. I searched everywhere on the internet and the only solutions i could find are:
1) Clear Play Store and Google Play Services Caches.
2) Enable Download Manager (Which I can't seem to find but I'm not entirely sure on that one so I'll post screenies)
The download manager shown in the screen cap below has no enable or disable option with it)
3) Wipe Android Device completely (Which I did and problem still persisted)
4) Re-Flash ROM. (Which I also did and the problem still continues
So, Im on a completely stock firmware and as soon as I finish going through the setup process feeling relieved I see a notification in my notification shade from the calendar app stating that Google Play Services isn't enabled or something and when I click on the notification the phone fumbles for a second and then the calendar app crashes. After a few minutes, while I was searching for answers, I got my email notifications and everything seemed to be fine. UNTIL I installed the Google Play Store once again, only to have it open and my first attempt to download an app made it crash. And now I'm back to square one. I cannot find "Download Manager" at the bottom of my application list. But I do have two applications under "D" in the App Manager, both called "Downloads".
I'm able to install APKs off the browser just by downloading and installing as normal, and my accounts seem to be working fine. Except the error in the google account "sync error" followed by a message at the bottom of the screen saying sync services are currently unavailable. I'm able to use Youtube and other apps easily without a problem. The only problem is my Play Store. And yes I've already re-cleared the cache and even just cleared the data from both play services and play store in application manager. Problem still persists.
Previous Errors:
1) Device is not provisioned data services error (Which I assume I've fixed because I don't get that error anymore)
2) Google Play Services not supported by your device. (Whenever I opened Youtube, but that doesn't appear anymore)
I'm really out of options this time, I was stumped after I factory restored with ODIN successfully and still was unable to fix my problem. Could this be a Google problem or am I screwed? Really need answers, so THANK YOU VERY MUCH in advance.

New problem
Okay so I decided to wipe the phone once more and re-install the ROM (Which is a stock MF3 ROM that I got from XDA) and the problem still continues, I've been up all night trying to figure this out. Now apps like Google+ (Which I hade to install from the internet on my device) say that the Google Play Services on my device is not supported by my device? What does this mean? It used to happen with the newest version of youtube, now im currently using the old version of youtube which has no problem, and im pretty sure if i were to update it id get the same error. Someone pelase give me some insight. What can possibly be done?

You used all files in the full MF3 Odin? I don't know why it wouldn't work, but your only option may be updating to MK2. It's a very peculiar issue. You could also wipe data in stock recovery and then flash the Odin file to make sure it's as clear as possible.

FIXED IT
After much searching for the problem I gave up and decided to try reloading the stock OS once more and it worked that time... I still have no idea what caused the problem...
Similar issue
Did you ever figure out what the problem was? I'm haing a similar issue with NI1. I'm using titanium backup to restore many of my apps and don't know if it's something I'm doing there that's causing the problem to keep coming back.
I've reloaded stock rom via Safestrap at least twice. But the problem is still there. I can't be certain but i think it may have to do with the syncing of contacts or data with google.
You could always try to reflash the gapps package... If you freeze a part of the gapps package like google services framework, other apps seem to not want to work.

Gapps package? This is the i337. There is no gapps package for the i337 on mf3 or nl1

[Q] Problem with CM12 Play Store Error 505

Hi Community,
maybe somebody can help me with my problem
What happend:
I had a LG G2 (D802) with CM11M12 installed on it. Also Tasker and Taskwatch were installed. I decided to upgrade to the first CM12 official nightly. I installed it over TWRP without a full wipe (only Cache and Dalvik). Something with the Play Store didn't work. I wanted to install an app (I don't know anymore which it was) but it didn't install cause of error 505. I thought it was because I flashed it over CM11.
So this time I made a full wipe, pushed CM12 and GApps (KK) through ADB into my storage and installed it clean. It didn't start. There was an error at the homescreen. Setup Wizard or something like that crashed every second.
I flashed TWRP 2.8.3.0 and tried it again. Same result.
I made a full wipe again. Pushed CM11M12, CM12 and GApps through ADB and installed CM11M12. The phone booted. I installed CM12 and GApps. Now it worked. Everything is just fine, BUT I can't install Tasker and Taskwatch. If I install Tasker and try to install Taskwatch, then I get the 505 error. When I uninstall Tasker I can install Taskwatch, but can't install Tasker anymore. I uninstalled Tasker via ADB. Same result.
Edit 01/10/2015: I did a full wipe (cache, data, dalvik, internal storage) and format data. I installed todays CM12 and LP GApps. This time it booted and worked without problems with setup wizard. Problem with error 505 remains.
Question:
What can I do to install both apps and not only one of them?
Thank you in advance.
Well I'm on the latest CM12 nightly +LP gapps and I get error 504 when installing certain programs like facebook, viber but not all of them give me this error. On some I get it on the first try and then it works. I deleted playstore cache and all the crap I could find over web but nothing helped. Wiped/factory reset still nothing.

Seems like another problem. 505 is related to a permission error. 504 is bad gateway, but I don' know the answer for your problem. Maybe you could try to install another GApps Version. Can you install those apps through Amazon App Store or via an apk file? Because I can't do that, the permession is still present. And I can install both application, but not together.
In fact I don't even know whose fault it is (error 505), could be one of these apps or Cyanogenmod or Google. As far as the stock 5.0 or a Cyanogenmod Snapshot will come out, I will try to install both apps again or has anyone a better solution?
Still the same problem
Thought it would maybe work with the newest Nightly (20150207), but I was wrong. Wiped everything, installed with gapps. Can install Tasker but not Pebble TaskWatch. Or Taskwatch without Tasker (which makes no sense).
Can you solve it? I have the same problem

Did this already, no luck! I think there is some kind of app working in background which is stopping fb, or not letting enough space for fb to run.
I started getting the same issue. Also Jasmine, also within the last couple weeks. But I lost mobile network as well. I'm only on wifi now. Troubleshooting has come up empty thus far. Wish I had an answer for both of us....
ROM issue? I have no idea but I as gonna try a different one to see what I could get accomplished. Letus know if you get it workin.

I'm gonna flash again with same or some other Rom, cz I've been looking for a logical reason behind this and i came up with this answer, this rom is using too much of resources leaving no space for other background process resulting in hanging Mobile Apps and services.
Same thing here

HELP, bootloop after installing whatsapp CM lolipop and recuression remix

Hi amm my G7102 enters bootloop immediately after installing whatsapp application has been tested on lolipop CM and Recuression remix, knowing that it was working fine before that. also note I flashed many times and used stock firmware.
how to fix that issue?
same problem for me... hav u found any fix???
Yup..I was to using cm and RR...But Whatsapp issue didn't came ..But installing other apps such as magisk manager...The problems come.. there is not fix to solve the problem..But if you want to use RR only then use RR Xperia mod ROM..In tht ROM apps installed properly... Or change the rom
I also had this issue, running LineageOS 13 6.0.1 on a Redmi Note 4 SD, and the latest WhatsApp update just crashed all the background apps and after a reboot it just stuck in a bootloop. Luckily I had a somewhat recent TWRP backup, so I recovered it and just removed Whatsapp. I wonder what happened there... I DO had the beta version installed, but I've been using Whatsapp beta without problems for years. :S
Same issue w/ cm12...only after installing the wapp.
Tried recerting by manually downloading to march ver. Still the same.. The moment wapp is installed, phone goes into bootloop. No other option to factory reset..
Any possible clues.. Had someone tried a more old version 2017??
i have same problem using CM12.1. Try this :
if your phone bootloop : uninstall whatsapp from safe mode ( press vol - ) while boot.
uninstall whatsapp from play store.
download whats app apk from apkmirror.com ( i'm using whatsapp 2.18.117 (beta).
and it's work fine now.
Now using CM12.1
I ran into the same problem when I installed greenify on CM12.1. Dunno if there's a fix or not but I figured out how to get out of the bootloop. My theory was, If any app installation caused bootloops, it means the app installation was somehow interrupted and this app is now in a broken state. You just have to boot into TWRP, use TWRP's file manager or aroma file manager to delete all app related files from data/apps or other app related folders. I deleted all Greenify related files and my phone got out of bootloop and booted normally.
Thank you sir, you helped me greatly!
CM 110.0 boot looks
Updates of several apps including Whatsapp are causing my phone to go into boot loop. I had to do a factory reset and sideload of older versions of the apps (where available).
I am running Cyogenmod 11.0 Android 4.4.4 on a Oneplus One.
Does anyone have a solution for this problem? I have been using an older version of Whatsapp but support for that version is going to be cut off by Whatsapp in a few days.
Thanks for any help.

Outlook/Gmail crash every time

Hi all
Since about a week, I have troubles when opening outlook and gmail too, both crash as I open them
I tried cache and app data wipe already, uninstall and reinstall too
Outlook goes in loop if I don't add google account and doesn't let me ad outlook/hotmails account
But when I add the google acc, it crashes again
I'm on v4.34 stock with twrp and rooted device, outlook just updated today
Thanks
UPDATE
I found out it is because of root after installing gapps on twrp.
The affected apps are gmail, outlook and messages. Anyone experienced this?
Is there any solution?
Cause without root it's hard to some things on this phone.
Thanks
EDIT:
Just did it again using full gapps and its now working even while on root, wish this could help someone
