  • Go to settings>>Apps>>Select “All” tab
  • From the “All” apps list>> Find Google Play Store>> Clear Data and Cache
  • From the “All” apps list>> Find Google Service Framework >> Clear Data and Cache
  • Now restart Google Play Store and try to download/update the app or games

Method 2: Try a different Gmail account in your Google Play Store. For this:

  • Open Google Play Store
  • Go to settings >> Accounts>> Choose Account or add new account
  • Now try to download or install the app or game

Method 3:

  • Go to system settings >> Accounts >> Google >> remove your Gmail account
  • From settings >> Apps >>All  >> Force stop, Clear data and cache for Google Play Store, Google Service Framework and Download Manager (like in method 1)
  • Again,  go to settings >> Accounts >> Google >> Add your Gmail account
  • Restart your android and then accept all the Google terms and setup Google settings
  • Run Google Play Store and update or install your app.

  1. Hi’
    Method 1 did not work for me.
    I could not change account or add a new one as said in method 2.
    In method 3, I can not remove my Gmail account without restore factory settings and delete everything from my phone, so can’t use method 3 either… :o(
