Try clearing the Google Play`s app data in system/settings/apps/all apps and try again. That often helps.

First, uninstall fly on mod. Clear the cache and data of playstore. After that install google play services and then try opening playstore again. It should work.

Please try to explain a bit more so that i can understand what actually the problem is (take a screenshot of the exact error that you see in playstore) and have you tried what i told you to do ??
Ps:- If you are having problem in explaining in english, try to write in your native language and translate it using google translate.

Do you have google play services installed on your phone ????
If no, then download new play store from here :-

And install it as instructed in thread. If it starts, it will automatically download and update google play services.

[Q] Unfortunately, AudioFX has stopped.

I am running Note 3 SM-N9005 Rooted CM12.1 custom rom. It has a built-in audio equalizer called Audio FX. I disabled it since I installed another "more efficient" equalizer from play store. When I log into my other account in my phone, an error keeps popping out saying "unfortunately, audio fx has stopped". I stucked in there without any option since its looping. Then I reboot to try my luck with stopping it from popping up. Sadly, its no use. Its more worst since it is now affect my primary account. Looping endlessly. Please help and if there is an option to delete this "cursed" app outta my phone, please tell me. Phone is love, Phone is life.

By using ? manager in twrp you can navigate to any file in your system and delete them. Look for the apps name or ask the app developer where it is stored.
I mean clear systems dalvic/cache after .

Did you mean the AudioFX or the one I recently downloaded?
EDIT: Thanks kenny! I finally done it by renaming it in TWRP. No need to clear cache.

Clearing is just a good measure.

What folder did you find AudioFX in? I don't see a way to do a file search from within TWRP

It is Google services Framework that must be clear to receive update + the google, google play services and locatuon services.
Plus after clearing go back to the vpn app and reactivate the tunnel.
Do not put sim back until update will be installed
Worked for me.

I get it before this post, but it's similar. In my case, I just changed the system language to English (for view all the apps mentioned) instead of timezone. And don't needed to remove my accounts (even Google accounts). Gps off and without SIM cards. About the apps to clear data, when clear Google Services Framework, it's recomended to force stop too. After all, I start vpn in India server and try to update. And it's done! Very similar. Works for me. Maybe works for someone else.

Yepp works fine. :good::good:

I've tried it with Torguard VPN, it didn't work but after using Psiphon Pro VPN it works.

Please don't do this,
Deleting Google Service Framework data will do harm to you're device!

You are right.
With method of the OP it worked to upgrade to pie.
But as already forecasted in your post, push notifications stopped working properly after upgrading.
Workaround without factory resetting the whole ROM seems to be reinstalling the apps which need Google Cloud messaging services, to obtain a new ID. E.g. for WhatsApp, that worked for me.
So think twice if this trouble is worth to you.
Thanks to Midomad to this useful link.

Run this command in a root terminal then reboot and reopen the apps, no need to reinstall, though I still recommend a factory reset
find /data/data -name com.google.android.gms.appid.xml | xargs rm

Push notifications of what apps? On my phone i did twice (clear data from framework) and push notifications are working as they should be.
PS: U don't need to remove your google account to do the process. Wiping the apps do the trick.

No,i'm from the future!
This is valid no matter what Android version you are using!

Here is another recent thread from miui forum for last year's Mi A1.
If this not enough for you,you can make some search on google about clearing Google service framework data.
If, after all, you're still not convinced!
Do whatever you want, just be more polite answering users next time.

For me in WhatsApp, the german weather app "WarnWetter" and Xing.
I'll observe if other issues come up and will then consider a factory reset.

It's true, you won't receive notifications from many apps like twitch, restoring backup from titanium backup has the same effect, but running the command above is enough to solve it

Since not everyone is rooted,and from my experience,a factory reset is the only safe solution available after resetting GSF data!
I think waiting for an OTA update, is easier than looking how to fix things on you're device.

[Max pro m2]Google play store is just shows downloading but not downloading anything

Don't forget to apply the same treatment to play services. Try to deactivate adblocker, or switch to other adblocker.

Go to Settings, Apps, Show System, then clear cache for Downloads and Download Manager, make sure to secure downloaded files just to be safe.

Clearing cache and data of play services
And restarting device may work
