What worked for me was clearing my device RAM. That killed it even though in my active apps Google play wasn't listed.

Force stop worked for my Galaxy Note 3, but after about a week it was back at it again acting up. Google Play, FIX THIS! I have had this problem for over 2 months.

Stopping the service and clearing cache worked for me. God knows why it did it in first place as have never restricted background data.
Cheers though :)

Thank you! Had same problem and this fixed it!

answered by anonymous
FORCE STOP for the Play Store and reset cache ... works perfectly.
THANK YOU!

answered by anonymous
I tried a force stop and it did not repair the issue. It didn't even change the screen. I had to 'uninstall updates' and return to factory settings for this app and it works (for now).

answered by anonymous
Uninstall Google Play app and let the phone reinstall to its factory set. Done with SGS3. Now its working fine.

answered by anonymous
Locked up Google Play Store App solution was to select Forced Stop fixed me too. Thanks

answered by anonymous
The Force Stop did the trick for me as well. Greatly appreciate this information.

answered by anonymous
Hi there, I also went to Settings> Application Manager> Force Stop the Google Play Service> Restarted the phone and Play Store worked fine afterwards.

answered by anonymous
Go to Settings-> Data usage-> Google play store-> Uncheck Restrict background data

Hi had the same problem recently. I used forced stop before. But what also worked for me was simply clearing the memory in the RAM manager. This is probably a better "first step". Good luck!

answered by anonymous
Thanks Anonymous, It worked fine for me.
