Getting Google Play Store on international Samsung Galaxy Note 4 (China)

Hello. I just got the China version of Samsung Galaxy Note 4 (SM-N9100).
It doesn't come with a Google Play store. How do I go about installing the Google Play Store?
I downloaded the 5.0.32 version apk of Google Play store, and I installed it.
But when I run it, it closes or crashes. I found that apk by searching these forums.
So I was wondering if I needed to do something to make it work?
For HTC One I simply looked up Google gms in the HTC Marketplace and installed it, which ended up adding all of the Google stuff (including Google Play).
The Note 4 phone comes with a Galaxy Apps, but searching inside it does not have a Google Play installer (nor Google gms equivalent).
So my question is:
Do I need to root my Samsung Galaxy Note 4 in order to get Google Play to run? It currently closes or crashes when I try to run it.
Did I install an incompatible apk for my Samsung Galaxy Note 4?
Again I am referring to the China version of Galaxy Note 4 (SM-N9100 model)

Hi, I have the same problem also. SM-N9100 does not support google play store, youtube, etc. I guess all china andriod phones is banned from access these apps. The only way out is to install another rom. Please let me know if a suitable rom is available. Thanks.

Samsung N9100
hi all,
In have the same issue. I rooted my N9100 and installed Google play services, google services framework onto the system / app folder. Changed the file permission to a system app but still wasn't able to get it running. There's an error that says the Google services framework can't be run. Maybe I install a wrong version ? Anyone can shed some light and point me to the right apk ?

There are two ways to do it
Method 1) Typical GMS pack includes a lot of junk/google bloatware:
　　1、GenieWidget.apk
　　2、GoogleBackupTransport.apk
　　3、Gmail.apk
　　4、GoogleCalendarSyncAdapter.apk
　　5、GoogleContactsSyncAdapter.apk
　　6、GoogleFeedback.apk
　　7、GooglePartnerSetup.apk
　　8、GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk
　　9、GoogleServicesFramework.apk
　　10、LatinIMETutorial.apk
　　11、Maps.apk
　　12、MarketUpdater.apk
　　13、MediaUploader.apk
　　14、NetworkLocation.apk
　　15、SetupWizard.apk
　　16、Street.apk
　　17、Talk.apk
　　18、Vending.apk
　　19、VoiceSearch.apk
　　20、YouTube.apk
so install only the apks that you need
These apks below are required in order for Play to work:
GoogleBackupTransport.apk
GoogleFeedback.apk
GoogleServicesFramework.apk
MarketUpdater.apk
Talk.apk
Vending.apk
Copy com.android.vending.apk from \data\app to \system\app\, then turn on “Owner, Group, Other" permissions for it
Method 2)
Go to http://dl.pconline.com.cn/download/86344.html and download a auto install pack
Note:
I have not tested both methods!!
You CANNOT uninstall google framework and other bloatware once gms is installed
If you live in China and don't have VPN, don't even bother with since its all blocked

No success with Method 2 on the Note 4 (9106w). It installed it but I kept getting a Google Frameworks Stopped working error. I was able to log into my Google Account and open the Play Store but could not get a network connection. In the end I disabled Google Frameworks.
Will try to flash TWRB with Odin tomorrow.

So did you install the Method 2 app AND the app from the link you added. Hence, do I need to install both apps?

I downloaded a 44+ mb file. After unzipping it on my phone I saw a folder with many files. Did you move all the files into similar folders on your phone? I installed the apk packages and regretted it. No success so I imagine I should be using adb to push them to the proper folders.
Any hints would be helpful.

Hi,
Can I check with Samsung note 4 you tried on ? I am using N9100 rooted and just tried the link you provided i.e. V1.5. I installed it, followed the screen instructions and the phone rebooted. Upon reboot an update was run. Unfortunately, Google frame work services and stopped. No luck. I wonder was is the issue.

Hi,
Can I check with you which Samsung note 4 model do you have and worked ? I am using Samsung Note 4 model N9100 (rooted) and just tried the link you provided i.e. V1.5. I installed it, followed the screen instructions and the phone rebooted. Upon reboot an update was run. Unfortunately, I got the "Google frame work services and stopped". No luck. I wonder what is the issue ? I check the file permissions of the Google Services Framework and it was consistent with the rest of the apk files in system/app

I got the same problem. After rooting and install V1.5, I can install and open the google playstore. But there are nothing in the playstore..except retry icon.

I flashed banks core gapps and have no problem at all. Banks core gapps also help me save a bit of battery because it install non of bloats

Hi All, maybe the material in below site can helps.... if you uderstand Chinese.....

Few questions about future software updates (Lollipop) since I've been away from Samsung for a while:
1. Rooting will trip Knox, right?
2. If yes, OTA updates won't work - would I still be able to flash via Odin or CWM?
Not sure if I will definitely root yet due to warranty issues so soon after buying.
As noted above, Google stuff here is a pain at times even with a VPN (location options don't work so Google Now is less useful).
Plus, I've become used to getting apps from the Samsung and Amazon stores instead.

That is weird indeed. Maybe you can talk about the developer of that app to discuss the issue.

If you have root, that's probably the issue.

No I don't have root.

Email the developer so he can diagnose the issue. Or use an alternative app if there is.

Have u tried in other devices?

It works on some devices with Nougat but not all.
Android is not a priority for DJI. They prefer Apple.
They're also something curious. There are 2 variants on ApkMirror, one version is not crashing. Maybe the Play Store doesn't download the good version.

There you found a fix. Continue to use that until the Play Store version stops closing.

Yes I hope Play Store version will work because I must update manually.

Just keep the functioning apk, and wait for the update through GPS and see if it works

have to wait until google decides the htc u11 is worth arcore :sad:

HTC don't appear to have bothered with any of their devices:

Which is strange as they are normally so proactive </s>

Google phone app

Gang, is there a google phone app available for the 1+8pro? Maybe a port that can be used?
Thanks in advance.

Yes for sure. You have just to search it on xda. There is a version that works on almost all the devices

I'm using the Google Phone app downloaded from the play store. If you are rooted you can install Google Dialer Framework using Magisk and it should let you download the app. I had to clear data for Google Play Services and reboot a couple of times first but no problems after that.

I am not rooted, noted.
Thanks.

The Nord device has the stock dialer, anyone know if that will or can be installed on the 8 pro?
