How to fix download stuck at 0% in Google Play


Hi this is the most common thing that happen when you install new rom that the downloading of any applications hangs/stuck at 0%. If you want to download any application or game from google play store / app store and if it do not download and stucks then you might hate that thing. When you will flash or install new rom in your android device then you enter your ID and PASSWORD of GMAIL (if you do not restore data partition from CWM) and after you try to download any application or game then it stucks. Iphone are better than android in this case, just kidding. This problem is on most of android device and maybe due to connection error or whatever. I also hate that but i have a great solution for this thing and it will work on any device. Google play or App store is a great thing to explore applications and games but if you cannot download applications or games from it then it is a problem. You may search on google for it some applications are not available on sites and blogs so you need to fix the play store or app store bug. This is a easy solution and not a tough one.




What you need:

> Any Android Device
> Common sense
> Mind

Note: I every time do this when i come across this problem and i am not responsible that it may not worked on your android device. This every time works on mine device(s) and i tried on my friend's android devices too. If didn't worked just comment "Not working for me" and please do not give negative comments, it hurts.
