Hi there, seems i got a quite strange problem here.
I'm on a CM10.1 nightly rom (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2099499) and today I accidentally discoverd that the play store dont display my installed app any more, which was fine last week(i did an update of some apps that time, not related to play store services), like the screenshot showed only two buttons left there. And I tried unstalled and reinstalled one of the app(gps test), and it told me that "this app was not installed by google play store". After the reinstallation the app showed up in the "installed app" section this time.
I check all my apps in the phone with "pm list -3 -i" to see if the installer is wrong(i installed all my 3rd party apps with airdroid last time i flashed the rom, and the apks, which were downloaded from play, were pulled from the phone itself). i found out that the values of installer attribute of apps i update last week were "com.android.vending"(for instance greenify), while others wre just "null". But the strange thing is that neither of them showed up in the "installed app" section.
I guess this has something to do with google's recent policy change for not allowing non-play-installed app to be updated through play store. But i just wonder what exactly happened to my device and if there is a solution to it without reinstalling every app. Thank you very much!
EDIT: the web version of google play don't show my apps, either.

Hi, I have a problem with the Play Store 3.5.15. In previous versions, when I went to 'My Downloads' section, the applications which I can update was displayed in the top on the list, and I was able to update, but with the version 3.5.15, when an application is updates, the section 'My Downloads', in the tab 'Installed', is showing nothing. So I can´t know if there are updates avalable or not
Same for me. I cant update to the latest Music app... not that its very important, but highlights the issue at least!
No problems here. Just had an update foe a few apps yesterday.
It doesn't happen all the time, but many times it appears there's a delay in Play Store showing an update notification for some apps. Sometimes it shows after sometime, sometimes not at all. When you swipe right to the All Apps section and scroll through, it's clearly mentioned for the updated apps that an update is available, but the same does not reflect in the installed apps section. Manually going to an app in installed apps shows 'update' instead of 'open'. This problem wasn't there in the previous Play Store versions. Only been happening since 3.5.15.
I can't even login with my Google account

I've noticed recently that the play store has been saving what you previously had installed when you select the all button in the store itself.
It shows apps that I've installed before but then install. The old market didnt show that and im not too pleased with it. Can you remove all the apps from that list that aren't installed?
No.
I'm not too sure how to start this so I'll just start in the beginning.
My phone is rooted and it has been for a while and i wanted to downgrade my play store to 3.7 but my phone came from the factory with the newest play store pre-installed so i couldn't just go into manage apps and uninstall updates because my phone never had 3.7 on it so i uninstalled the play store using my root uninstaller (like an idiot) and went through a time period of about a week where I couldn't even get the play store installed. last night i finally got it installed to the point where I could actually see the app in my apps list. So after getting the play store re-installed I thought i was finally done with this problem. However when i touch the app icon to open the play store the screen just hangs stays black for a few seconds before telling me that the google play store stopped working. so im stuck with the app closing pretty much right after i open it. If ANYONE has any idea what to do i would be extremely grateful.
Can anyone help? Still hasn't opened properly and I can't figure out why

Had the same problem before, Google Play Store closing on touch. Solved it by installing it at system app. Since you are rooted you can easily do this.
So after an update some things started failing pretty badly. The first thing I noticed was all my desktop icons had disappeared, then the Google Play Store wouldn't donwload apps, whenever I clicked to download something, it would just shut the app down. Then today I could finally update my apps, opened YouTube and a sign came up saying that I needed to update Google Play Services to launch the app. When I clicked to update Google Play Services, the app store would just shut down again. Also if I try to open Settings, it opens for half a second and then closes. Any help will be much appreciated!
Yep... I also noticed some issues
after watching some Rio streams
-Window manager.. not starting app fullscreen ( settings/remix option/window looked good)
-links to stream started to fail..
-IP 10.* /mac all zeros
-after leaving stream app all the open apps where scrabled looking
Rebooted a few times... remixos crashed a few times
Then.. I decided to emty ''Cache'' under Settings/storage (it showed 380mb )
Now everthing seems fine again
---I have been thinking.. perhaps make a ramdisk for ''cache'' as I have lots of Ram free
--But It might cause problems with OTA updates... if Update uses Cache??
Another..
If you use advancedsettings.xml (setting cache bigger) inside kodi.. it can crash RemixOs
`System updater` doesnt work if you installed on ext4 (using INSTALL=1)(aka no ota updates)
Googleplay doesnt work on the 32bit version
Anyway.. just try emtying cache.. fabzombie

i also hav the same problem with google play store, everytime i tried to install app from play store it closed automaticlly. please anyone help
the same goes for me
It has many flaws
Dears, the problem that broachs this query to forum is related to a kind of virus called google play services. But let's start the tale from the very beginning: It popped I in about a year ago or so on my faithful full stock Alcatel Android 4.2.2 (running finest & fastest with around 270 apps and heavy duty since near 3 years) It began with lags and a pop window saying: ''this app won't work until you update google play services'' also in the attempt to open several apps non related to creepy google. Innocently I joined the message and did so. Once updated, the phone gone almost blocked and overheated, leaving room enough as to go settings (reaching there after several minutes) and press uninstall updates button and the problem vanished.This happened thrice in a year because of my doubts about, finally never again I updated the crappy play services and it never ever SELF UPDATE as follows.....:
Now....To make my Alcatel company I bought a brand new 4.4.2, slotted a copy of my SD and installed my APKs. All right for a short while until the same problem appeared again. Again I uninstalled the play services update and fixed BUT...Now the play services along with the play store self update constantly, even self turning the Wi-Fi on. First I tried all the simple tricks (disabling auto sync, disabling google now, etc and etc) but they both leaped every barrier.Then I disabled play services but even apps non google crashed completely......
Finally I rooted and run 3C toolbox. In app management > services I unchecked the two autoupdate boxes of play store BUT....the boxes self re check and there smily came the play store update.... I set the linux firewall for both playstore and play services but all seems to be useless.
This morning through 3C toolbox I flushed away to the gutter most of google crap user apps, then guessing by the sequence of their auto updating (always first play store) I disabled play store suspecting it enables the play services auto update and no news of self updates until now, but the keyboard still lags, a film online still winks and a couple of apps and the settings page opened by itself.
The question is: the 4.4.2 play services version is 6.1.83. Is it possible to replace it by installing an APK of the version 4.0.34 that my 4.2.2 runs ? If so, how is to perform a safe replacing ? Compatibility ?I dare to guess first step disabling play services, second installing the APK and check behaviour..... If not I'll acknowledge any suggestion or alternative. I'm just a half advanced and curious user
I wish the disabling of the play store keeps the situation stable and the only matter here is replacing goggle play store with something similar
Thanks in advance.
