Reset your device dude or flash any firmware.

I restarted my phone but it didn't help and I am searching for other ways to fix it, because I don't want to flash firmware

Not restarted. Reset it means formate it. Go to settings > General > Backup and Reset.

Sorry, I didn't understand you, I will try to reinstall gapps

Remove your google account, then open play store, and continue by entering your credentials again.
Not able to add google account either now

if possible go back to 4.2.2 and start over again or just install a custom rom and flash gapps

Yes that is always my last option.
I have faced this issue on 4.2.2 as well, I had solved this by stopping Freedom
This time post the OTA upgrade I lost root access, post which I could not stop freedom post which I deleted freedom and needless to say restarted the phone several times but no resolution. I am trying all kind of things on my phone before flashing it.
So let me know if you want me to try something else as well

Ok Google not working

Since updating my firmware to G900FXXU1ANE2_G900FOXA1ANE2_BTU my google ok voice command is not working even in the Google Now app, everything is switched on to recognise voice. Im not sure it is the update that has caused this, can anyone confirm this? Im on the Galaxy SM900F international latest firmware. Thinking of going back to original firmware if this is the case.
Could be a bug, is the app up to date? Try going into application manager, go to all, find google search and press it. Clear Cache and clear data and reset it to factory or if possible uninstall (if uninstalling don't worry about cache or data) then reinstall or update depending on your situation.

Already tried that thanks Gareth it worked randomly once then wouldn't work again I think it's possibly the upgrade have you upgraded your firmware? and does google voice still work??

I am running the phoenix rom. I always use the s voice rather than Google itself but Google search does work. If you're root you could remove the app completely with "root app delete" then download it off Google play again? If it's a bug with the firmware then it should be patched very quickly.
Got it working again not sure how or why tried turning a few Google now settings off then back on again seems to be working fine now was strange so maybe it is a bug thanks for your input Gareth. Ive usually flashed omega roms in the past (S3) but with the phone been so fast root has been good enough for now

Play store not reachable

So, my father's P8 Lite had some connection issues, so he decided to perform a factory reset.
So far so good, except that the play store isn't reachable directly. It's installed and updated, it shows in the app list, but it's not in the laucher, nor I can find it with the search tool. It's definetely there, because I can open it via widgets, but it's very annoying that the icon isn't there.
Is there a solution, besides trying another factory reset? I've already tried to download the apk from the web, but the issue remains.

Have you tried installing a different launcher? That might resolve your problem. If it still doesn't work you could uninstall all updates to the app and see what happens.

on your homescreen swipe with both fingers away from each other. then you can see the hidden icons. if its not there go onto your homescreen and make a folder by dragging two icons to each other. go into that folder and hit the + sign.
after that you get a list with apps.
could you check if the play store is in there?
if not boot into recovery and try cleaning dalvik cache... (you won't lose anything)

Greenify problem J500FN Lollipop

Hello, I always used Greenify in my devices, but with J5 I've a big problem, I'm not able to use it anymore. I don't have root and I don't want to use it, so I use Greenify non-root mode. It worked for 2 days, but then it has stopped working. The app asked me to activate it in accessibility settings, but when I do it there's a message that says "Settings has stopped working". I can't hibernate apps anymore, and I don't want to root my phone. I'm on Samsung Stock lollipop and I already tried a data factory reset, I also flashed last firmware with odin, nothing to do. In Marshmallow there isn't this problem but I don't want to upgrade, I also tried to clear data and chache or to uninstall Greenify. Is there a fix? Help!

You need to install a TTS, like GoogleTTS. Then choose GoogleTTS at language settings if i remember properly and then the problem is gone. I had same problem in past, and after i googled, i got this answer which solved my problem.
Im not sure, but i think Greenfy does slow down the phone over time. I always used it, even now, but ill check about this on google sometime.

You don't need root lol. Just check Google Play for Google TTS and install it, or download it from apkmirror if you don't have gapps. Then put it on in settings like I told you in my previous post.

Guys, an easier way is this. Just turn on Battery Saver mode and your update or download will start immediately...

I don't think that's the case, because it took quite a lot of time
For about a week, I also have this problem.

You can also delete Google Play Services cache, this works pretty well in those cases. Even if you have problems trying to download a device system update.
Even it's data (in this case you'll have to add an account for Google's data backup again).
However, keep in mind this kind of processes won't work well if you have enabled apps, device features or Magisk modules that force device to save battery in some way.

Would be good to tell us which system you've installed.
Any custom ROM? Are you in stock?
On the first case, check ROM installation.
If it came with gapps preinstalled, better flash an updated version of that ROM (clean or dirty would change, depending of Android major verion in which that update is based), otherwise flash another gapps, I use OpenGapps.Try to flash, at least, nano gapps.
If you're on stock, things are quite different, since there you haven't the same way so solve things, more than than reflashing firmware.

Stock Android One version 9 (Pie) with regular updates. :silly:
Looks like something is screwed up there.
Is your device rooted?
I feel that would be better to backup your data and flash latest firmware with Mi Flasher tool.
The same is happening some times and on my A1 and is fully updated stock rom without root or any other thing...
I think it has to do with the latest version of Google store or Google services...
