Lately, after a download reaches 100%, my Play Store app just sits there, still saying "downloading", and goes no further. The "Open" button never does appear. Sometimes the install actually does succeed, but only after an interminable wait, and only in the background, never reaching the point of displaying the "Open" button or otherwise offering any sign that the installation really did complete.
I was tinkering with my boottime selection of startup apps and services recently (phone is rooted), and clearly I disabled something that the Play Store and/or the package installer depends on, but I could really use a hint as to what to look for (and where!). Or is there a file containing a task list or something that needs to be cleaned up or deleted?
What's most odd is that the install actually succeeds eventually (usually, anyway; hard to say what the probability of success might be, since I haven't tried it enough times to really say). It seems that Play Store transfers control to the package installer, but control is never handed back to it, and regardless, the install takes forever to complete.
Does anyone know the dependencies for Play Store and the package installer, or how to go about finding them out?
I thought of just reinstalling both Play Store and the installer, but can't even find the Play Store app, and not at all sure which of the many installers available I should get.
Running Android 5.1 on a Coolpad Catalyst. Any advice will be *so* very much appreciated!
Thanks in advance.
