Answer 1

Most probably you get this message because Google Play application was not running at the moment, and after you reinstalled the app, Google Play was up and running again.

When you encounter the same problem again, try to start Google Play application and then get back to your app and try to access billing once more.

Answer 2

if you find this message in the log:

05-30 09:28:23.760: E/Volley(4636): [13] BasicNetwork.performRequest: Unexpected response code 429 for https://android.clients.google.com/vending/api/ApiRequest

it means that you've send too much RESTORE_TRANSACTIONS request in given amount of time. Google has clearly some throttling on request. It happened to me during testing in-app billing, approx. 20-30 restore transcations request went ok, and then - service unavailable response.
