Did you change your dpi? If not, try clearing play store data, then wipe cache & dalvik.

Did you check if there was no filter in Playstore parameters ?
Hi,
I am having the same problem after installing an AOKP Maguro rom.
I have lost not just whatsapp but many other apps. in the play store.
The strange fact is that I have been using this rom since march and never had a problem before......it looks like that something has changed on the play sore lately.
try finding the APK file and sideload it....works for me with apps that have been removed from the market place

Happened to me once. Clear data from "Google Services Framework" and the market, reboot, and try it again. Solved it for me.

Guys, I think they are not working at all. Could it be the problem of new version of play store? I am able to download the apps using mobile data actually but just not over the wifi.
Go to settings>app> type all and find Google service framework and clear data then reboot

try this: http://gizmostorm.com/how-to-fix-package-file-is-invalid-error-on-google-play-store/
In case above steps didn’t worked for you
Boot your device into recovery.
Clear cache partition.
Head over to Advance options.
Clear Dalvik cache.
Simply reboot your droid.
Try Play Store once again and probably you will end up with success in installing any apps and games without any error.

[CM] Unfortunately google play store has stopped

Hello,
Yesterday, i was downloading an app and i canceled it killing the donwnoalding manager.
So i reinstalled it later but my WiFi stopped and this same app stop being downloaded.
Today i cant open the play store, i have reflashed it and i dont kown what to do ...
I also delete the app data, deleted the app cache and wipe cache and dalvik.
Thanks for your help and sorry for my english
You could try uninstalling the Google play updates or find the apk of the version you have and install that over the top of the 'broken' one.
Just a suggestion.

Google Play Store Insufficient Storage

I have this issue with playstore where it says insufficient storage even when I have loads of sufficient space avaliable.
I have tried clearing cache and data of google play services and google play store app, I have tried clearing dalvik cache from recovery, I have factory reset my phone.
All these methods except factory resetting works sometimes. Factory reset works everytime. But the problem works again after a few days.
Do anyone of you guys have permanent solution?????

Method 1 of 4: Using the Lucky Patcher App
The Lucky Patcher app is one way on how to fix insufficient storage available error on android phones. Lucky Patcher apk is actually a third party app to crack/patch paid Google play apps. Your device must be rooted to be able to use lucky patcher.
1.Download Lucky Patcher apk
2.Place lucky patcher apk into your SD card and install it using any file manager you prefer.
3.Run it and then press menu key and Proceed to Troubleshooting.
4.Choose "Remove fixes and backups" and then finally reboot your device to fix this awful error.
After this, the insufficient storage available bug will be no more. This can be done every time the bug appears and it will allow you to install any application you intended to have on the phone.
Try to clear data from the play store in the application manager. If that doesn’t work, clear it again along with Google services framework. You’ll need to sign in to your Google account again.
