A Nexus 7 tablet having android 4.4.2, does not have the default Google Play(neither older Android market) app installed.How is that possible?
I tried downloading *.apk file from here and even here But did not work. When I tried executing the apk file, it did install the playstore app it said, but after that when tried to run the app, it just did not start or work as expected.
For other *.apk files for Google store app that i downloaded, it gave errors saying Error saying - "There was a problem parsing the package". It just did not work for many Google store apk's different versions i tried downloading and installing/running?
I tried installing these below apk files for installing the Google playstore:
com.google.android.gms-4.4.48+(1150368-038).apk - Gave error parsing package.
com.android.vending-4.4.22.apk - Did no work after install, hanged and stopped responding
com.android.vending-4.6.16.apk - Installed the app, but after install, did not run as expected
com.android.vending-4.8.22.apk - Installed the app, but after install, did not run as expected
How can one install Google play store on this Nexus 7?
Would there be any correct/compatible *.apk for Google play store available which would work?
As found in some searching online, I tried checking in settings and elsewhere to see if any default apps disabled setting is checked but could not find any such thing?
Are you using a custom rom or stock?
In the first case, you have to flash gapps in recovery, in the second they should ship with the OTA update.
A recent update to the Google Play services makes it crash, regardless of Android version. This is how i fixed it:
Requirements:
Root
A root file explorer
Google Play services APK (make sure to select right Android version and use arm + nodpi): http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/google-play-services/google-play-services-10-0-84-release/
System app remover: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jumobile.manager.systemapp
Instructions:
Disable WiFi.
Use System app remover to uninstall Google Play services, this will make it revert to the factory supplied version.
Install the Google Play services apk. The 10.0.84 is the latest working version accordning to my tests.
Create two folders in \data\app and name them com.google.android.gms-1.apk and com.google.android.gms-2.apk. This will stop Google Play services from auto updating. You should be able to create at least one. Do not overwrite any existing file.
Restart and enable WiFi.

Some additional steps to the above.
If Google Play is broken, like it was on mine, you can't download the System app remover. I got it from http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/jumobi...-root-3-6-2019-android-apk-download/download/
(I do not know if that site is safe.)
Download APK to PC, transfer it over USB, and install it with Terminal Emulator.
Also, if you cannot download a File Explorer since Google Play is broken, try some APK like http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/es-glo...-manager-4-1-6-android-apk-download/download/
(again, no idea if that site is safe.)
and install it via Terminal...
Then finally you can click the Google Play services APK. (Or just install it via terminal since by now you know how to...)
NOTE: if you have TF101 with KatKiss 4.4.4 you can't use the one marked Android 4.4W+, it fails and you will wasting hours of your time like I did - use the Android 2.3 version.

After spending 3 hours of figuring out all the above details, I still got the "has stopped" popups, because I had created the file names in terminal as gsm instead of gms. Details are important...
I should add that I did get it working, with my manual installations etc. Thanks!
Works for hours, then PlayServices autoupdate... try 2 times.
Im using katkiss 6.0
My problem is that while trying to flash KK6.0 again it gets stuck on the "Checking connection" step and it continuously prompts the famous "Unfortunately, Google Play services has stopped". I have flashed old gapps (1st Feb) but problem persists.
I know there is a general issue about a gplay/gservices version but I am not sure how to proceed now....
This is my solution for Transformer TF101 on firmware KatKiss 4.4.4:
Install Lucky Patcher from here: dl1.revdownload.com/dl1/1701/Lucky_Patcher_v6.4.5__5557_Revdl.com.apk
Open Lucky Patcher, select "Search", type "Google"
Uninstall "Google Play", "Google Play Services" (I also uninstalled "Google App" forever cause I needn't it)
Download open gapps on 2017-07-31 from here: github.com/opengapps/arm/releases/download/20160731/open_gapps-arm-4.4-pico-20160731.zip
Disable Wi-fi
Reboot to TWRP recovery
Flash gapps, wipe cache/dalvik.
Now boot and create 2 folders in /data/app - com.google.android.gms-1.apk and com.google.android.gms-2.apk
Now you can turn on your Wi-fi
Here's my solution about installing right version of Youtube for this gapps and prevent Youtube app from updating. There's ZipSigner app which changes a certificate and "detaches" the app from Google Play. For Youtube app this method causes failure on startup with a security exception. Luckily, I've found another solution:
The latest working version is 11.41.56 on October 28, 2016. Download Youtube app from here: apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/youtube/youtube-11-41-56-release/youtube-11-41-56-21-android-apk-download/download
Disable Wi-fi
Uninstall current Youtube using Lucky Patcher
Now install downloaded version of Youtube
Create a folder com.google.android.youtube-2.apk in /data/app. There should be 1 file com.google.android.youtube-1.apk and 1 folder com.google.android.youtube-2.apk.
This solution should prevent a Youtube app from being updated by Google Play: it begins to update but at the end dialog shown which says there's insufficient storage space.
By the way, you can prevent auto-update for another Google app like Google Drive. Open Lucky Patcher, click on the app and select "App Info" and you'll see a detailed info. All you need to do is to create a folder with name like apk but "-1.apk" has to be replaced with "-2.apk"
Turn on Wi-fi
Phew, good to know it wasn't only me. I've been having this Services issue for some time now on the old 4.4.4 KatKiss, googling for it, updated to 6.0.1 but the problem starts as soon as I even try to install Google Play Services in any way (either flashing GAPPS or installing afterwards with an apk). The device works fine without the Services, but then I can't use Google Play...
So is it yet known who are affected? Is this only a TF101 problem, or are other devices (also non-ASUS ones) also affected? Or is this a KatKiss issue? Or what?
I don't feel like blocking Google from updating the services, that sounds like a stopgap solution that probably makes Services unusable in the long run. Hoping that e.g. Google fixes this problem with a new update...
Solution to my problem... But still need to wait until mr. Google decides to solve it

Yes, there are a lot of devices which faced with this issue. The reason why Google Services stopped working is so-called NEON instruction set for ARM chips. Our tablet has Nvidia Tegra 2 chip which does not support such command set! And no, that will not be fixed!
Here's a quote from the forum (bit.ly/2luHVwu):
If this started on or about the 9th it is due to Google putting ARM neon code into the last update. Older ARM chips do not have neon code functionality and are therefore screwed.
My 6 year old Asus TF101 with a Tegra 2 processor was still running like a champ with android 6.0.1 until last week.

I was having it stop at the "Checking Connection" step too, realized I was using the 2017 gapps package instead of the 2016 one. Check to see if you're using the correct one. However, I'm still having the "Google Services" issue.

I was finally able to get it to work but had to omit the .apk part of the two folder names. UPDATE: sorry, that actually didn't work, in fact, at the moment, no matter what I try, I cannot stop it from updating at some point and having to start all over again...
I rolled back to ASUS 4.0.3 original firmware.
It is working fine for the last 5 days, as long you do not update any of Google apps. The original firmware still has Google Talk pre-installed.
The original firmware is so so slow, when compared with KatKiss 6.0.1 or KatKiss 4.4.4, but at least it is working fine. No FCs at all.
Please note that there are some recent apps that do not work with Ice Cream Sandwich (Android 4.0.3).

Kenpoh, what version of KatKiss?
I found the format of the info in the /data/apps folder different from 4.4.4 to 5.1 to 6.0. I was unable to get things to work with fresh 5.1 ROM flashes so went to 4.4.4 and creating the folder with the "-2.apk" worked in 4.4.4. I think the bottom line is you have to create a folder name that is the same name as the .apk file (with a -2) to "confuse" the auto-update.
Now that I know I can get 4.4.4 to work, I'll see if I can get 5.1 and/or 6.0 to work and share my findings.
UPDATE
OK - I gave up 6.0 required setup a WiFi connection before fully booting. 5.1 wouldn't let me load ES File Explorer from the terminal (failure uri something or other).
For 4.4.4, I:
- Downloaded ROM, SU, GAPPS, Google Play Services 10.0.84 from apkmirror.com
- Did a clean flash
- booted up installed ES File Explorer from terminal
- installed GPS 10.0.84
- reboot
- create folder using the "-2"
- reboot
All is well. I let everything update (including Google Play Games) and everything is running just fine.

Thank you very much for your post. It worked flawlessly!!!
I have a Moto Xoom which is also a Tegra 2 Non-Neon device that is experiencing this Google Play Services issue -
I just had a one-on-one chat with Google support. Since I am running a rooted Moto Xoom (Omni 4.4.4), the only advice Google one-on-one support could provide was to unroot and revert back to Stock (which is 4.1.2. on the Xoom) and/or contact Motorola for support. Google seems to be unwilling to investigate fixes unless folks that are running UNROOTED Tegra2 Non-Neon devices are also experiencing the same issue.
So, if you are running a non-rooted Tegra2 device (like your ASUS TF101's) and are having this issue, please contact Google one-on-one support and let them know via https://support.google.com/googlepla...l=en#contact=1

This worked! Thanks OP. As a bonus tip you can also do this from TWRP: Use the TWRP terminal emulator, switch to /data/app/ and mkdir the aformentioned gms-1 and gms-2 apk dummies.
So I have a FTV2 that I can't root (yet... hopefully) because it's on the 5.2.4 software - but I needed Google Play Services in order to run a particular program I sideloaded. Using the info in this guide:
http://www.aftvnews.com/how-to-inst...amazon-fire-tv-or-fire-tv-stick-without-root/
I was able to get (what I believe to be) the latest working versions (for the FTV) installed. The program in question now works fine. Here's what I did (again, all credit to the above source... all I did differently is figure out and download the latest versions of each):
1) Download the following apks (I got all of these from apkmirror) and install in this order:
- com.google.android.gsf_4.0.4-488656 (this is Google Services Framework)
- com.google.android.gms_10.2.98_(030-146496160) (this is Google Play Services)
- com.google.android.gsf.login_5.1-1743759 (this is Google Account Manager)
- com.android.vending_6.8.24 (this is Google Play Store)
2) Once the above are installed, launch the Google Play Store and attempt to login. It'll fail. That's expected.
3) Hit home key and you're gtg!! Apps requireing play services should now work (at least they did for me).
I'm not sure if you have to do the play store part or even install the play store and/or the account manager, but I figured it couldn't hurt.
Hope that helps!
Didn't work for me. Still get the
"app(optus sports in my case - Australia) won't run without Google play services which are missing from your phone"
Thanks for trying to help though.

Hi All, I have just tried to install google play on my Fire TV 2 and I get an Error saying this app isn't compatiable with your device. To fix this problem, go to settings and uninstall updates for the google Play Store App. I followed your guide exactly but I am now stuck, can you offer me any advice please. (I only need google play store to download one paid app, as it does not transfer across as a full paid app with apps2fire)
FireTV Software Version:- Fire OS 5.2.4.2 (574263120)
Fire TV Home Version 5.7.3-17
Non Rooted (Really do not want to root it)

Any luck with this? I was able to get past this initial issue by installing the Android TV version of the app which allowed me to open, but I get a spinning wheel and nothing loads so I am assuming the framework files are to blame somehow.
All I want is to install a recent version of espxe! As my current version crashes when visiting the preferences screen.
Any help most appreciated!!

Solved by installing most recent version of expse by transferring apk from device to fire tv so no need to install google play on fire tv 2
I installed and I can get the app to work. It is MSG GO. Now it is asking to allow location services. Thoughts?

Hi,
I have the same FTV2 with the same 5.2.4.0.
And like you I need the Google Play Services for the same reason.
So I installed the exact versions of apks with same the order you provided.
But unfortunately when I launched Google Play Store I only got the cruel error "This app isn't compatible with your device. To fix this problem, go to settings and uninstall updates for the google Play Store App."
You mention that you downloaded the latest version (at that time). Any ideas which versions to download, since they are to many?
Thanks in advance for your kind answer!

Hi,
Can you be more specific on the solution you describe?
Thanks in advance!
Hi
My solution was that I didn't need to install the app I wanted (espxe PlayStation emulator) at all through an installation of google play. Instead I found another android device (tablet) downloaded the espxe apk on that and then copied it to the Amazon fire tv. I messed around with different framework versions but to no avail. I was able to get the 1mobile store installed a lot easier which has many apps but this didn't have the 'paid for' espxe.

Hi XDA,
Phone: OnePlus One Pro 8

OS: Oxygen OS 11.IN11AA
Magisk:1469b82a (21101)
I recently rooted my phone and it works quite well, I have used Magisk Hide to 'hide root from my banking apps', it works so does NFC and google pay.
I hide the following service through magisk hide: (Banks, Google Play Game, Google Play Services, an authenticator (Duo Mobile))
1) However, I don't seem to be able to install some games from google playstore, namely : Eve Echoes, World of Warships, Warpath ..all of them download but give the error "Can't install, try again"
Is there a work around?
2) On a side note: is apkpure a trusted website (they seem to have APKs for everything)?
Thank you!

I'm not sure about why google play won't work, probably you can try to wipe data and cache of the Google Play services and google play store and maybe that would work?
I have the apkpure app and it works beautifully, it updates my apps and games faster than the app store and even beta version you can find there. I mainly use apkpure so I can download games and apps that are "not available in my region"

@dvartak May sound stupid, but does the Play Store app has storage access ? I had the same message when using microg and the Play Store, I wasn't able to install any "big" app until I gave the storage permission.

Yes, it does. I can install big games and apps. I can install Genshin impact and other games(offline), which is why I am perplexed as to why others won't install.

That's bizarre never heard of it
Can I ask, have you got the dreaded lucky patcher installed?
If not then might be time to clear down play services, play store, play games etc, sign out - sign in
Try pushing the game by saying you want to install it via the web.
Go here and sign in, then find the game, choose your phone and itll push to your device, don't let the play store open the link
https://play.google.com/store
What modules do you have installed??

The only thing I have installed is systemless. I tried installing magiskhide props config to see if it helped; it did not, so I uninstalled it.
On the web, it says 'installed', but it isn't.
EDIT: I tried with another gmail account, reinstalling google play games.
Other online games such as Clash of Clans seem to work, so does Among Us and Genshin Impact.
The ones that don't work that I have tried: Eve Echoes, WarPath and World of Warships < All of these show up as installed on the web (but aren't installed on any android device that I own).
Eve Echoes downloads starts installing and gives the error unable to install.
Can some one who is rooted try if these games will work.
ok, one more interesting update: Netflix app seems to work, I thought it shouldn't work on rooted phones.

I have the apkpure app and it works beautifully, it updates my apps and games faster than the app store and even beta version you can find there. I mainly use apkpure so I can download games and apps that are "not available in my region"

Do you mind linking the APKpure app here please. My guess is that I have to side load it.?

Ill try them, see what I get, not my types of games but sure np.
Must have detected root.
I think it's the game detecting it, not your system. Or Google play won't allow the installation if you're rooted on those games.
I'll try them now.
Seems to be working for me..that's warpath.. Installed then verified in game. I have play protect off
This is my version of magisk on canary.
Edit: Image uploads not working on the app.
It's version 1469b82a
You could maybe change to canary then update, will need to repatch and update magisk manager. It's easy, no need for ADB

Just so that I have understood it correctly,
Step 1: Set channel to Canary,
Step 2: Update Magisk and Manager to whatever is latest
Step 3: move the magisk_patched file to my downloads folder
Umm..what do you mean by repatch and update magisk ?
Sorry
Cheers,

Ok so change to canary.
Head back to the normal magisk screen.
You'll see two install/update buttons
Top is magisk
Bottom is magisk manager
Update the manager, it'll download,, then click install.
Next click magisk then install directly
Reboot and you're done .
PS: have your original magisk patched img ready just in case but I've done this a LOT and have never had an issue, so you'll be fine.

One quick question, should I disable magisk hide (settings) and systemlesshosts before doing this ?
EDIT:
a) ok so I tried this, I disabled the magisk hide before attempting this, it detected my magiskpatch during direct install. When the phone rebooted things were a bit slow and my internet was not working. Another reboot and everything was fast again, but no luck with Warpath.
b) Tried to clear cache and storage for playstore and google play games. Shutdown the phone, started it again.
No luck.
c) I downloaded APKPure to try and download 'Warpath', it downloaded but would not proceed with installation., I had to manually click install APK.>The game starts and asks to download additional files..., files are downloaded and it fails to install.
In the grand scheme of things it would be great if I could install everything, I can get by with not installing these games. I fear that this might an issue with others apps as well although so far I have not encountered any problems.
Any other things I could try ?
2) On another note, I wanted to know how I could backup my active partition (just incase I want to try things and something breaks).
3) This might not be related at all, I noticed that my root folder (using solid explorer) shows 0B free of 1.42 GB. Is this normal that the root folder is completely full ?
Thanks!

DV

Yes it's tthat's similar to mine. It's possible that that's the problem but I've not witnessed that before, maybe it is the problem.
Ok so it seems were running low on fixes here..it's almost certainly a permissions issue, maybe the system space? I'm guessing!
Have you tried to mount namespace??
Did you hide magisk manager? Unhide it. Btw I don't mean magisk hide I mean the manager, then reboot.
I'm not sure if there is a way to reset all permissions to apps including Android system apps but that would be my next step.
Beyond that, remove modules and wipe system in recovery, it'll be you're system, apps, settings, but storage will remain, it's what I do if I need to start over as system is where 90% of issues reside.. You will need to fastboot boot the magisk patched img then directly install after.
If it's not that then it's a deeper problem and even though it's just a few games at the moment it won't fix itself, so without a tonne of troubleshooting then it'll be MSM or full zip restoring. Probably MSM though as you'll get fresh everything.
Hang on your internet didn't work??
That's a sign that you're using a boot.img from the previous firmware??
That could be the problem. Re download you're firmware using oxygen updater mate.
Open settings /advanced
Then download the full zip.

Yeah you have to side load it. You can go to their official page to download it or use this link

Apologies for not being clear.
My wifi was connected there was just no data transfer.
The only magisk patch I have is from the large file that the phone/oxygen OS downloaded to get me OS 11. You helped me on my other thread.
Hi
Like Google Play, is there an updater that updates app from APKmirror or others automatic?
There are but I would suggest aurora which uses Google play without an account
Forgot to mention, it can also be apps that are not on Google Play.
Ex for me is: Disney+, have to find it on apkmirror (or others), has disappeared from my Google Play....
Ofcourse other apps also, that is not on google play.
Disney + is still on Google play Maybe not for your country or something but aurora uses anonymity to show you everything on the Play store
Something happens after a reset of my Shield. So can't find it anymore.
I will try aurora, tried it now on my phone, looks great.
New to this, so 1 question: Is it possible to make update and install. Now I had to hit install/upgrade for each of the apps?
And maybe run in the background and update apps?
With root yes that will auto update
Thanks for the answer.
Haven't read or tried that in years. Maybe I'll check for the Shield, my phone is brand new so I'll have to think about that.
Is it still the hassel of USB, program and much code on the laptop, if I could ask?
Now it's just using a modified boot file. An oversimplified explanation is to just enable oem unlock, reset to factory settings, extract the boot file, magisk modifies it, put it back in the phone and boom you're rooted
Thanks, will try to find the howto for my Shield and maybe my phone.
