Why is my tablet saying : unfortunately google play services has stopped?

I’m really frustrated with my tablet right now. Every time I try to use any app that relies on Google Play Services, I get a message that says ‘Unfortunately, Google Play Services has stopped.’ This error pops up constantly and interrupts whatever I’m doing, whether I’m trying to check my email, watch a video, or play a game. It’s making my tablet almost unusable. I’ve tried restarting my tablet and even cleared the cache, but the problem keeps coming back. I’m not sure what else to do and it’s becoming really annoying. Has anyone else experienced this issue and found out why it happens?

When my tablet had the same issue, I did the following steps that finally solved the problem:

  1. First, ensure that your tablet has the latest updates installed. Go to Settings > System > Advanced > System update. Install any available updates.
  2. Next, clear the cache and data for Google Play Services. Go to Settings > Apps & notifications > See all apps > Google Play Services > Storage & cache. Then, clear both the cache and data.
  3. If the problem persists, try uninstalling updates. In the same settings screen for Google Play Services, tap on the three dots at the top right corner and select ‘Uninstall updates.’
  4. After completing these steps, restart your tablet and check if the error message still appears.

I’ve dealt with this problem before. What worked for me was reinstalling Google Play Services manually. Here’s the step-by-step process:

  1. Go to Settings > Apps > Google Play Services and disable the service.
  2. Download the latest Google Play Services APK from a reliable source.
  3. Install the APK manually by enabling the option to install apps from unknown sources.
  4. Once installed, re-enable Google Play Services from the settings.
  5. Restart your tablet to ensure everything takes effect.

I had the same issue on my device last month. Here’s what worked for me:

  1. Clear both the cache and data for Google Play Services. Navigate to Settings > Apps > Google Play Services > Storage. Tap ‘Clear Cache’ and ‘Clear Data.’
  2. Sometimes the error is triggered by conflicting apps. Uninstall the most recently installed apps to check if one of them was causing the issue. This can often resolve the problem.
  3. Make sure your Google Play Services is up-to-date. Open Google Play Store, search for Google Play Services, and update it if necessary.
  4. Finally, reboot your tablet to apply the changes.

This error drove me nuts for days. I finally found a comprehensive approach that eliminated the error:

  1. Go to Settings > Apps & notifications > Google Play Services > Storage & cache. Tap on both ‘Clear Cache’ and ‘Clear Storage/Data’.
  2. Check the system date and time. Often, an incorrect date/time can cause issues. Make sure it’s set to automatic.
  3. Restart your device in Safe Mode (many devices enter Safe Mode by holding the power button and then long-pressing ‘Power Off’). This disables third-party apps. If the error stops, it indicates a third-party app conflict, and you can gradually uninstall recent apps to find the culprit.
  4. As a last resort, perform a factory reset after backing up your essential data. Navigate to Settings > System > Reset options > Erase all data (factory reset).

If you’re still seeing ‘Unfortunately, Google Play Services has stopped,’ you might want to check these steps that helped me out:

  1. First, try a simple restart. Many times, just restarting your device can temporarily clear up the issue.
  2. Head over to Settings > Apps > All apps > Google Play Services. Once there, clear the cache and data as this often resolves such errors.
  3. Update your Google Play Services and Play Store. Keeping these applications up to date can sometimes resolve many functionality issues.
  4. If the issue continues, boot the device into Safe Mode to diagnose if a third-party application is causing the conflict. If the error is absent in Safe Mode, uninstall suspicious apps that could be problematic.
