S4 SPH-L720 PlayStore not working with Optimized-LineageOS-19.1-Version-7.0 - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Awhile back I rooted an old S4 and installed Optimized-LineageOS-19.1-Version-7.0. All seems well except that I cannot update or install anything from the PlayStore. PlayStore appears to be working, but all updates or installs stick at the "Pending..." status. I could use some suggestions on fixing this.
Note: The phone will be used with a WiFi connection only. It will not be assigned to a carrier.

Never mind. I found and followed the instructions here. Now the PlayStore works perfectly.

[BUG] Market Apps failing to download after root.

Just started to have issues downloading apps from the market. Im on any connection and im connected to the internet but they fail right away with this message "Download Unsuccessful" ..........rooted too. Any Ideas?
*Edit*
I need some others to check this out
Last night I reset to factory defaults and after 1-2 downloads from the market everything after I tried to download fails, rooted. Then I flashed the stock firmware downloaded a couple apps no problem, rooted, couple more downloaded then FAIL! Not able to download until I do a factory reset, even than I can only get 1- maybe 2 downloaded.
I'm having trouble as well. I'm rooted, I posted yesterday but nobody replied. Can somebody out hedre try and install fring?
Rooted. And no problems.
Are you signed into Talk for authentication?
I had similar problem on my EVO yesterday as well.. So i don't think it's a phone issue...
-CC
I did a reset back to stock pulled down a couple apps then dead after that...CAn anyone pull apps off the market right now?
I was having major problems with apps, then I did a cache wipe and factory reset. Problem solved.
I was also restoring apps from mybackup pro, which may have caused the issue. The apps were backuped from my evo and restored on the epic.
Its a apk I removed just don't know which one :/
I take that back...I lost market functionality again and have not removed any files only rooted AM i the only one experiencing this?
I rooted (using the older line by line instructions, not the single automatic script) and have not had any problems with the market.
i rooted with the one click script and have been downloading apps with no problem, downloaded an update to gps status tonight on 3g and barcode scanner over wifi tonight.
Im having the same issue, I rooted so i can do free wifi tethering (hotspot) and now i cant even download the ****ing app to do so.....

[q] playstore apps stall on 'downloading'

Please Help.
I have a Google Nexus 7 running JellyBean 4.2.2. It is not rooted.
I updated the device about a month ago and everything was going fine until the day before yesterday.
Whenever I download anything from the Play Store, the application does not download. It just keeps showing 'Downloading' without any progress. The download does not start.
Everything else is working just fine. there is plenty of space on the device. I am able to browse the net, download and install apps from outside the playstore.
I have searched many threads on this and other sites but could not find a solution.
These are the things that I have already tried but they did not work for me:
1) Cleared Cache and Data for Playstore in settings>apps.
2) Uninstalled updates for Playstore.
3) Rebooted the device many times.
4) Deleted my Google account and tried with another Google account.
5) Switched on and off my WiFi couple of times. ( My Internet is working absolutely fine! )
Any help/suggestions would be highly appreciated.
Oh great professionals, please help me.
What could be the problem ?
Dude i am also facing the same problem for last few weeks....contacted google support...they asked me to talk to my ISP, but he also doesnt have a clue... i can download apps once in a while but most of the times it jus stucks and sits there...really annoying (Nexus7,India)..I can see ur also from india..Wonder if its a regional thing ?
have you got any solution yet ? Please post it as i am still having the problem
My new note 4 duos that i ordered from China does the same thing. I had canadian note 4 before and it worked fine. but on the note 4 duos, after rooting, text messages send slow and the play store takes 10 -15 minutes per app to install. it will download the first 80-90 percent in seconds then take up to 15 minutes to install to install the rest.
ive tried everything so far to fix it. the only thing that works is reonstalling stock OS, but as soon as I root it starts happening again. i need root.
i wonder.if the chinese are spying.on me since this is a chinese phone. looking for a new rom to install but cant find any for the sm-n9100

[Q] Force closed apps after updates with NAE stock and cf auto root

I had the stock MK2 with cf auto root and just updated to stock NAE found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2663619
and did (lates version of) cf auto root with odin and everything when smooth, working properly and kept all my data too. Until I tried doing app updates.
From the play store I updated some apps but they started to force close repeatedly so not sure of what to do I re flashed to stock NAE and did the app updates I wanted THEN did the cf auto root and back to normal.
Having the free titanium backup app I decided to buy the Pro version and the whole forced close app issue happened again.
Wondering if anyone else is having this issue and if there is a way to fix this so I don't have to keep going through the process of flashing to stock NAE to do app updates then root again.
PS: this website is great! :good: Been so helpful and it came time to be part of it.
BUMP
I am having a similar problem as well. All my apps worked until the started to update through play store. So far I am having issue with FB, IG, Slice, and Glide. They either wont open at all or they constantly force close. Have you found a solution yet?
fixed

ok so after a weekend of trial and error I narrowed it down to the hotspot mod causing the problem. I had reflashed and factory reset and then root and MANUAL hotspot mod with sManager explorer that would force close once before letting me rename the service files but worked after second attempts but would force close any updated apps after the mod. To fix it I deleted the service files for hotspot mod and replaced them with the original ones I had renamed.
The trick to getting it to work is installing philz recovery and flashing the hotspot zip from there. now I have hotspot and no issues with force closed apps.
hope this helps others that stumble on this issue

If you have the hotspot mod and did it manually by renaming the files and placing the new ones try flashing it instead of a manual overide, hope it helps good luck.:good:

Wi-Fi Error: Won't Turn On

Cheers everyone,
I followed the modified Chainfire tutoria by @jcase to root my HTC Bolt. I followed that by putting the Bad Boyz ROM on it as well, just for fun. That whole process was a success. I tinkered with some of my favorite apps, and now I'm not able to turn on my Wi-Fi anymore.
Here's what I've done: modified Chainfire root, Bad Boyz rom through TWRP, and manually cleared both caches using TWRP after noticing the Wi-Fi issue.
Where and when it started: I'm not a fan of the built-in hot-spot application, so I've had a steady relationship with WiFi Tether Router in the Play Store. I attempted to use this with the HTC 10 configuration provided by the app's author, which resulted in my situation now and the app doesn't even function properly.
Where and how it gets weird: The fixed hot-spot application built-in works perfectly. I can use it for Internet access with all the devices I own.
I'm in a pretty LTE rich area, so this isn't critical, just annoying.
Any help is welcome and appreciated.
Easiest thing is just wipe and reflash the Rom. Don't use a different app. Stock app works flawlessly.
fyi--latest twrp can be used along w/ supersu

Galaxy S5, rooted has several issues now:

So my S5 (verizon) is rooted, running the deodexed stock BOK3 ROM with xposed installed but otherwise not much added is having a few issues.
1. Everytime I reboot, I get "Google Play Services has stopped" pop ups excessively. And error codes that "Maps won't run unless Play Services is updated" . Even when updated, if I immediately reboot, I get the same errors. This happens on every reboot.
2. WiFi does not seem to allow data transmission. It says it's connected to the network, but there is no internet activity. This is relatively new.
3 . Snapchat won't log on. Neither with mobile data nor Wifi (which doesn't seem to work).
Any suggestions on what is up with this?
Can I just back up all the systen/data in SS, then factory reset and re-install the ROM from the SD card?
getting the same problem with the Google Play Store not working, android.process.media keeps crashing as well.
The S5 looks to be coming to an end. Loved this phone, but I think I'm going to upgrade to the S8 and switch to the new unlimited plan--now allows hotspot. I get to use the faster LTE Advanced and won't have to go the rooted route.
Hi, I'm new here so be patient please. I have heard nothing but good things about XDA Developers website. May I test this "theory"? My question is I rooted my s5 a few months ago, but when I unrooted root checker said "not rooted" but some apps still think I'm rooted. ?? Help.
