Everyone experiences some crashes or errors with apps on their phone at some point and if you have been using Snapchat for a long time or have installed and reinstalled the app several times, you may have encountered the notorious Error Code 910. This can happen not just in Snapchat, but in almost any app you can download from Google Play.
This error prevents you from installing or updating Snapchat, but don’t worry as we have found the most common causes and solutions for this error and we want to share them with you.
Causes of Error Code 910
There are a few things that can cause this to happen, from Snapchat and Google Play malfunctioning to problems with your SD card.
1. Cache Folder with Corrupted Data
The error can be caused by some improperly cached data in the installation folder of your Google Play Store app. The general fix for this is to clear the cache and app data from the Play Store app.
2. Issues With Your Google Account
Sometimes your Google Account can get corrupted for no apparent reason, and the most common way to fix it is to sign out and sign in.
3. Corrupted SD Card
There is a chance that Error 910 will occur if the data on your SD card gets corrupted. This is usually resolved by removing your SD card.
4. Inaccessible SD Card
The error occurs much more often on Android devices that use an SD card for extra memory. It’s probably related to formatting the memory card and the best way to fix it is to move Snapchat to your device’s internal storage and update from there.
5. Google Play Store Error
Sometimes this error occurs because there is an incompatibility between your Device and Snapchat App and you need to download Snapchat from an external website to bypass this issue.
Bug 910 Fixes
We have already mentioned what the possible fixes are for Snapchat’s Error Code 910, but now we will go into the details of how to apply them.
1. Clearing Google Play Store Cache
This is one of the most common and easiest methods to resolve this error. If the problem is caused by badly cached data, clearing the cached data of the Google Play Store app will fix the problem permanently.
- Tap the Settings menu from your device’s Home Screen. Once in the menu, scroll down and tap on Apps.
- Scroll through the list until you find the Google Play Store app, then tap to open it.
- Tap on Storage
- After that, tap on Clear data and when done, tap on Clear cache as well.
- Restart your device and try to update or install Snapchat.
2. Re-Enter Your Google Account
If the first method does not fix the problem, you should try this as it is the second most common way to fix the problem.
- Tap to open the Settings menu, then swipe down to open the Accounts menu.
- Find your Google account and tap on it. If you have multiple Google accounts synced on your device, follow the step below for both.
- Tap your account and then click the Remove button in the lower right corner.
- Once removed, return to the Accounts menu and tap Add account.
- Select Google and follow the instructions to re-add your Google account.
- Restart your device and try to update or install Snapchat.
3. Removing the SD Card
On newer Android phones, removing the SD Card is cumbersome as you may need to use a pin to manually eject the SD Card. Fortunately, your Android device has a built-in function to eject the SD card with almost the same result.
- Open the Settings menu and tap on Storage.
- Once in the storage screen, tap on Unmount SD card and confirm.
- Open google play store and try updating or installing Snapchat again.
4. Moving the App to Internal Storage
If removing the SD Card didn’t work, you can try moving Snapchat to your phone’s internal storage and update it and then move it back to your SD card.
- Open Settings, then scroll down and tap Apps.
- Find the Snapchat app and tap on it.
- Tap Storage, then tap Change storage location and move it to Internal Storage.
- After moving, try updating Snapchat again.
- If everything works, go to Change storage location and move it back to SD Card.
5. Downloading the App from Another Website
This should be your last option if none of the previous fixes worked for you. You will need to download Snapchat from a third-party website, but be careful as most of these websites are shady and can cause more problems.
- visit 3rd party site. We found APK Mirror to be pretty reliable, but feel free to use another one if you think it’s more reliable.
- Use the site’s search function and find the latest version of Snapchat and tap on it. Scroll down in APK Mirror and you will find the versions of Snapchat listed.
- Click the Download APK button and wait until the download is complete. In APK Mirror you will find the download button on the right side.
- If you are downloading an APK for the first time, a notification will pop up that prevents installation from unknown sources. In this case, you need to go to Settings and tap on Security & Privacy and change the Install unknown apps behavior to Allowed under your Browser.
- Open the APK and follow the instructions to install or update Snapchat.
