Could you provide a screenshot of the error? Can you uninstall from the play store and install again?
I have the same problem. Have tried standard fix (turn off auto-restore, delete cache and data of Google Play and Google Play Services, uninstall their updates, reboot).
Circumstances: installed beta update for Firefox. Found it was slow and locking up, so I uninstalled it. When I attempted to reinstall the stable version, I got the package file is invalid error. After several attempts and then trying the standard fix, I tried reinstalling the beta version. Same error.
This is on a Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II SCH-I605
Please advise.
Okay. This is crazy. I wanted to make certain that Google Play could download and install other apps without the error. I chose a large game "The Secret Society". It downloaded and installed fine. I uninstalled it.
Then I attempted to install Firefox again, preparing to capture a screen shot of the error for posting here, but it installed without a hitch this time.
Not sure if the passage of time, a correction on the server side, or the mere act of downloading, installing and uninstalling another app did the trick, but I'm glad I'm back in business now. I hate it when that happens!
Clear the google play cache.
- Visit Settings > Apps on your device
- View All apps
- Select the Google Play store app, and then tap Clear data and Clear cache.
- Then, select Download manager and tap Clear data and Clear cache.
