Bunch of things started to fail. Need help! - Remix OS for PC

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

Problem - Google Play only showing first 10 apps, Help?

Hey everyone,
I hope this is in the right section. But just recently i noticed my phone acting weird. Seems when i open google play store and do a search, Most recently i did "Weather Widgets"
It will return with like 6000 app results. Normally when you click the apps bar it takes you to the app results, When you scroll down and you reach the end of the list it will auto load the next group of apps.
Well now when that happens it no longer loads anymore results and it stays stuck on the first 10~15.BUT this is the weird part.. IT ONLY DOES IT FOR APPS and GAMES.
Music and Books the list loads as usual.
So far i have wiped the cache / data and just tried uninstalling the recent update and took it back to version 3.7.15 but google play auto updates itself back to 3.8
This really sucks. Anyone know how to stop google play from auto updating? soon as i wipe it back to 3.7 it auto updates back to 3.8
Nevermind - Resolved.
I guess somewhere along the line when gapps updates to 3.8... it no longer likes the device ID. I checked it and its DROIX but 3/4 of the apps on the market dont show.
So i downloaded Device spoofer and setup gapps as a Nex S. works like a charm

Play Store does not start (FC)

Hi everyone.
I have a problem on my HTC One S (S4) everything Stock (again)... no root, bootloader locked etc.. (but don't think the problem is device specific)
I will describe it a little detailed so sorry for long text:
Yesterday i saw under notifications that "google+" is auto-updating to latest version. but because of i don't want to use google+ (and i can't uninstall it), i pressed and hold (during the update-process - on the notifications bar) and tapped on "App Info". From there i selected to stop the task, cleared the data and deactivated. Then it was gone also from the notifications. -- i know i could have tapped only once and stopped the update in playstore, but i just wanted to make it quick.
But the problem started there: when i want to open playstore, it shows up for a second then closes back again with a FC. Reboot didn't helped.
I have done clearing data of "Google Play Store" and "Google Services Framework" and rebooting but this did not solve the problem.
Today i received 3 Update-Notifications for some apps but when i tapped on the notification, playstore opens then closes after a second the same way.
I got also a com.google.gapps (as far as i remember) FC-error sometimes..
I wanted to install the playstore from an apk, but interestingly i couldn't download anything from the (stock) internet browser (the download does simply not start or the download-page closes). I also tried with Chrome to download, but there i even got FCs when i wanted to download anything. So i think this has to do something with the playstore-problem.
Now the question is: is there a way i could fix this, without restoring the whole phone?
Problem solved (thread can be closed).
i just needed coffee to wake up i think. i simply restored all app settings to default (via HTC Sense). Everything works now.

[Q] play store dont show my installed app saying not installed by play store

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.

Apps don't appear on playstore

Hi, today arrived my Moto E. I turned it on, and then I went to playstore so I can update all my apps. I went to subsection My apps and Installed. It were loading for several minutes, but nothing appeared. I decided to delete data and cache from the playstore and reboot phone to see if the problem was solved, but it remained the same way. Then I search in the google play store for motorola and I was able to update each app one by one. My question is why doesn't the apps appear as installed apps on the playstore, and how can I solve this problem.
Thanks.
Sometimes apps don't appear when the google play services or google play store is updating. The update can range between 35-0 MB. This might be the case ass your device is just out-of-the-box.
It can also happen because your account isn't properly synced. To verify, go to Settings>Google>Sync now (from the 3 dot menu on the right side)
Hope this solves the issue for you

Need help play services, play services FIA, Open Gapps strange behavior.

I've been moving my updates into the system for years now but have yet to be able to move play services in Android 5.1 without issues ( vanishes ) so I started using Open Gapps to handle this problem but this morning I noticed a new app installed play servives for instant apps and the play services app was only 130mb. So I moved the new app to the system play servicrs FIA and play store update and thought I'd try to move play services again ( using link2sd ) which hasn't worked yet after rebooting no errors like past attempts but play store wouldn't open it just did nothing, checking into things with link2sd everything appeared to move properly except play services which had vanished again. Now this is were things got weird, I already had Open Gapps downloaded from 5/28 ( full ) so I thought I'd just flash that and fix it instead of using recovery, it didn't work, play services was still missing on the phone and play store still wouldn't open.
Anyone have a clue as to why flashing open gapps didn't fix it? Never seen that before.
Also if anyone with the ooen gapps project is listening it sure would help to have a package with just play services since so far that's the only update I can't seem to move to the system without issue.
I'd really like to be able to move play services to the system easier.
