[Q] Need your help to check app in Play Store - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
So I developed my first android app which is in the play store and blah blah blah. Anyway, I don't have a physical android phone so I developed the app using emulators and stuff and when I do a play store search on the web, I can find my app. Anyway yesterday, I downloaded this new android emulator called Genymotion that comes with emulated phones that have access to the play store and when I did a search of my app in the play store on the emulator I couldn't find it. Then when i did a google search on the phone and clicked on the link to open it in the play store it said that the app was not compatitble with the phone which is weird because the emulator is running android 4.2.2 and the app is supposed to run on anything from Android 2.2 upwards. Anyway, since nobody around me has an android phone, I was hoping some of you guys could do a quick search on your play store app and search for my app called "Reflap" (No need to download it) . If you can't find it, do a google search on your phone and find the link to the play store, click it and open it in the play store and see if it gives you the incompatibility message. Whatever the status, it would be great if you could reply to the thread with your phone, android version and the status of the search. Thanks guys, that would help me out to see what is going on with that.

Sweet. Weird that using the genymotion emulator I can search for all the mainstream apps but can't find mine. Anyway, as long as it's available on real devices, I'm good.

Try installing Google play apk
Tried couple of Play Store APK versions.
every version is crashing.
i've bought the same tablet and play store keeps crashing every time i install !!
can we get any support ?!
I'm gonna go ahead and bump this vs making a new thread. I'm still fairly new to mobile devices, but my intermediate knowledge of computers kinda helps me out. Still a long shot, considering this isn't a well known tablet.
Android 4.0.4
From the factory it comes with HCL's own craptastic market app (Almost expect that from a cheap India brand knock off of the iPad), which has a horrible layout, always freezes up, and doesn't have any useful/common apps. While the tablet itself has with most of the default google stuff removed from it. Including Google Play Services.
I installed both the Play Store, and the Play services manually with no errors. But when it comes to running the store, it'll run fine for about a second, then a system message will come up saying "Unfortunately, Google Play Store has stopped." BUT I can see the app giving me the terms of service prompt in the background, AFTER that error message pops up. After acknowledging the error, it force closes the store, so I'm presuming HCL hardcoded something in to block google's app store.
I've taken the well known solution to this of installing 1Mobile Market, but I just don't trust it (So many cloned apps...) and I can't get to my purchased apps.
Any ideas? I have a very rough idea of what I'm doing when it comes to roms, I've successfully installed a custom one to an old Samsung Infuse before.

[Q] Google Play services on Bluestacks?

i just cant get any app that needs this to work at all, even if i got the play services apk and the latest google play apk, not in any version of bluestacks does it work, does anyone have any idea how to resolve this? its freaking mind boggling
Not even the youtube app that COMES WITH bluestacks can work because it requires those, how can this even be?
Its strange that looking through the forum that i cant find anyone else really complaining about it more.... something like this should be made a priority for the bluestacks team because more and more applications rely on it than on android versions....

I installed Bluestacks player and after searching for an app I would get the error "Market Not Found. Search Web for Installation Recipe?" I clicked OK and then it downloaded some random "mpi.v23_xxxxxxxxxx.apk"
Prior to that i'd spent hours trying to work out how to download the apps and get them to sign into Google + because it would complain about Google Services not being supported on my device or it wouldn't install. I use Bluestacks for Clash of Clans only so I can't vouch for other apps but I can FINALLY login to my Google + account!

[Q] Google Play Store not finding all apps

I have installed Google Play on the android emulator with android 4.3.
I am not able to see many apps on the Google Play Store.
It has nothing to do with country restrictions since i am able to open that app on my real device.
I have tried tweaking build.prop but to no avail.
Please help me solve this issue .

[Q] Freedom 1.0.6 Google play store 5.2.13?

Hello guys,
I hope I'm at the right place to ask a Q and If I'm at the wrong place, please forgive me. My Q is. I have Freedom 1.0.6 with Market unlocker and it used to work with previous Google play store.
It doesn't work now with the new Google play store update and I don't know why. When i try to purchase gems etc, it just says Google play store has stopped. So is there any solution to solve this problem? I will gladly appreciate it. Thanks in advance!
play store 5.2.13 update is broken!
same problem here, anytime I click on any app - play force closes/crashes and it says "google play store has stopped" I called google and they were a bunch of a-holes about it, insisting that it was only my device and my problem. glad to read that this is widespread! although for some reason my other devices dont update themselves and stay on the previous play version 5.1.11
PS I dont have freedom and I just found out that freedom is warez. i suggest that you edit ur post and take out any mentioning of warez and focus on the real problem which is play store update 5.2.13 and perhaps that way u grab the attention of the right people who can help us. Nobody on here will help this post if ur mentioning warez!!!

What can we do?
So what can we do to solve this problem? Is there anything we can do?
Well, I will try to to downgrade my google play store and see if it works. Maybe Freedom doesn't support Android 5.2.13 which is the play store. I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one who is having this issue.
Same issue re: Google Play Store 5.2.13
EDIT: Please note that I don't use Freedom, however I am experiencing similar issues.
Having the same issue, on a very old device: Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 LTE (model # SGH-I957R). Stock TouchWiz 4.0.4, device rooted with SuperSU 2.46.
My steps to duplicate the error:
1. Tap Google Play Store > app opens normally
2. Tap Search button > type in app name
3. In search results, tap an app (Facebook for instance) > page appears to load > freezes and then crashes, producing the error "Unfortunately, Google Play Store has stopped."
4. Google Play Store closes and tablet revers to app drawer
The temporary method I've used to get around this: in your search results, tap the three dot menu on the app you want and then tap Install. Skips the app description page entirely and works fine.
So far I've tried using the steps in this XDA thread and also these Android PIT instructions, but no luck. No amount of clear cache + clear data + force stop + uninstall updates + disabling/re-enabling apps + signing out and then back in of Google Account has worked thus far. Will report back with more finding once I find a solution!
Freedom and luck patcher are banned on this site and you will not get any help concerning them.

exactly the same is happening with me. the 3 dot menu is brilliant fix for now. i've also tried everything just like u but nothing seems to work. btw - some of my other devices upgraded their market to 5.2.13 as well but they dont have this problem. i wonder if it is related to the OS? my crashes happen on ICS OS 4.0.3 and on my other device JB 4.3.1 play store 5.2.13 works ok. Note to administrator: please do not block me, i am the one who told that guy not to post about warez! now my xda app seems locked as I cant access my participated and under my profile i cant access the list of my posts either. admin - did u do smthng to my accnt?? pls dont! i am telling ppl NOT to post about warez. I didnt even know what freedom was! i had to look it up.

In the play store, there should be a list of settings specific for the app. The top option in my device is Auto-update Apps. Have you tried disabling that already? I'm honestly not sure if this would prevent auto-update of system apps such as Play Store. I just figure that's worth asking just to eliminate a step for someone who might know better.

I'm going to do a full restore because I don't know how to replace a system app.
Then I'll give your advice a test run and see. Thanks for the reply.
