I have a Samsung Galaxy A35 5G, and whenever I try to do a Google Play System Update on it, it says, "Updates are temporarily unavailable. Try again later." Is there a problem with the update servers, or is it just me?

The following worked for me and might work for you:

Google Play Services are integral to the functionality of every Google app. Try updating Play Services.

- Go to Settings > Apps
- Search "play"
- Tap on Google Play Services
- Scroll down and tap "App Details in Store"
- Tap the update button if there is one
- Reboot

This *should* kickstart any Google apps that might be misbehaving, including Play System Update.

Unfortunately, it didn't work. Should I force stop Google Play Services and reboot?

You could try that, Also you could try wiping the cache partition of your device in recovery mode.

1) Turn off your device.

[Your device may need to be connected to a powered USB device (ex: computer) before proceeding to the next step.]

2) Press and hold the Volume Up button and the Side/Power button until you feel a vibration and the Samsung logo appears. Let go of the buttons.

3) You will now be in Android recovery. Use the Volume buttons to highlight "Wipe cache partition."

4) Press the Side/Power button to execute.

5) Use the Volume buttons to highlight "Yes."

6) Press the Side/Power button to execute.

7) "Reboot system now" will already be highlighted. Press the Side/Power button to execute.

It didn't work. Do you think it has something to do with the fact that I'm on Spectrum and they were bought out by T-Mobile?
