Dinjin, managed to install that but no reappearance of the icon nor automatic launching of Play from in-app buttons in Google apps.
The only change is that I can adjust , within settings, a new app called Google Play Services. Is this what Play normally show as in the settings?

Hi, sambaselect...
You don't specify if you're rooted, have an unlocked bootloader... or if you're running unrooted factory stock.
There is one thing you could try... Boot your Nexus 7 into safe mode - LONG PRESS the SHUTDOWN TABLET option in the POWERDOWN menu. (or the REBOOT option if you're running a custom ROM that supports an extended POWERDOWN menu).
You will be given the option to reboot the tablet with all user installed apps (ie, from PlayStore) temporarily suspended... and just the core Android apps (Gmail, Maps, etc).. and hopefully PlayStore will be available in the app drawer. If it is, 'drag' a shortcut to one of the home screens and reboot.
Sometimes, if you have a lot of apps installed, it's easy to 'lose' an app in the forest of of icons in the app drawer - you can't 'see the wood for the trees', to use a phrase.
Safe Mode is a good way of quickly seeing those apps installed to the folder /system/app and what might be missing.
Hope this helps....
Rgrds,
Ged.
PS., if you are rooted, you can use a rooted file manager like X-Plore File Manager (http://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lonelycatgames.Xplore&hl=en) to check the contents of /system/app... you need to be looking for something called PHONESKY.APK - which is the PlayStore app.

Errors
Hey man, this is great for the most part. However I followed your steps and I constantly get service errors no matter what I'm running. Have you gotten these errors to stop? Also have you found anything more about getting the play store to work?
Thanks,
Sean
Google play not working. Gmail is though. I'm using the play store by logging in via the silk browser, but unlike with the nexus 7 I just returned, I can't get the paid versions I've already bought for my Android phone. Im NOT paying rwice for the same apps (ie Poweramp). I like the Kindle overall, don't mind its Amazon overlay, but completely resent their blocking me from using their competitor's app-store. If they want to really go toe 2 toe with Google, let them develop a full new yet redundant operating system that rivals OSX & Android. Guess I'll have to root. Is not like they own every Kindle & we're just renting like the cable box for $10/mo.
These are not the droids you're looking for.
Yeah, I'm unable to get Google Play to work with this method, and it creates a lot of errors with services and wireless connections in the process.
For all of you having problems: did you also download and install google play services as well? I hear thats required for a lot of the gapps to work.
I can confirm the following apps work with signin and sync and so on:
Maps
Keep
Play Music
Youtube
Drive
Chrome Beta
Gmail
I did need to install play services 3.2.66. And i do get random "com.google.android.gapps" crashes even when not using a google app, but it is easily dismissed.
Hmm i see that the google services framework are version 4.0.4-338691, and the google account manager is 4.0.3-239410. Perhaps it would be better to use 4.2.2 versions (if they exist) ?
Anyone seen those around in apk format? (i've only seen them in the gapps packages for cm10.x and i think they need to be repacked, which i do not know how to do...)
check goo.im for gapps packages you need.

That's exactly what i did. But those come in a .zip for flashing on top of a AOSP rom without google stuff. I'm pretty sure you can't just extract the apks and install them (at least not the one i tried). As i mentioned i expect they need to be repacked in proper apk form, which is something i do not know how to do.

I don't quite follow you. Are you downloading ALL these files to your computer and then transferring them to the HD Fire ? I am not a tech person at all and this just seems to be over my head to do.

Yes, that's would be one way to do it. Or if you go to the web page using your Kindle Silk Browser then you can download directly to your Kindle Fire HDX.

It's simply a zip file containing the files GAPPS use and the command instruction including where to put all the files. At the moment, since there is no root, it's not possible to write some files to the system folder/directory. But for the APK files, if you install them it would put them on the user application space rather than system application space like normal GAPPS do on custom ROM(s). That said, not all the google apps will require those files to be in the system space. So, no worry there. You would simply unzip the file and try to install the apks and move the files to the user space if you can. That's the best you could do for now. I could write a little script file to do that as I did on the Nook HD+. Hence that's the root and GAPPS was done in the Nook HD+ at the beginning. I'm not gonna bother writing any script as I'm still waiting for my 2nd replacement unit. If this thing goes south again, I would just return the device and wait to see if I would get the new 2013 Nexus 7/10. I might even keep my eyes open for those 8inches Windows 8.1 tablet also.
Are notifications and background sync working for Gmail? I've read conflicting reports.
Thanks!
i dont know if this is known but, i just downloaded the latest google services, search and youtube app, i now have all cards in my google now, and signed into youtube.
Just thought id throw it out there

Any more of those annoying FCs? Did you just install the apks and nothing else? Where did you get them from?
I've not tried it for a week or so but ended up just removing the google stuff as it just kept crashing.

No FC at all works fine, all I did was go to Google play, search for the apps, find the version numbers, and downloaded through websites on Google search, Android police have them if I remember rightly, all I did was I stall the apks through es file explorer

I was able to test and confirm that the latest Google Launcher from Nexus 5 works on the Kindle Fire with the latest Search app. It does need the latest Play Services as well. Unfortunately the wallpaper is black and attempting to change causes to close. But otherwise it is working and even the left swipe Google Now works.

Nice with a thread for this.
Worth mentioning perhaps:
Widgets does not work (will FC if you try to add one)
A longpress (for adding/moving icons) while the device is in landscape orientation will make the orientation do a barrel roll. Put the device in portrait mode while moving stuff about to avoid this.

Very cool as an experiment. However, I continue to recommend to people who want an "Android-esque" experience on their HDX that they:
* Install Vire Launcher from 1mobile.com, since it allows a limited number of wallpapers (built into the launcher itself), rather than just having a black background.....and since it also has clock widgets
* Install the new Google Search, without Play Services, and put a Google Icon on their home screen. This allows you to use Google Voice Searches, with the exception of NOW cards, as with any other Android tablet. You can even get the "OK Google" hot voice command to work.

This sounds great! Just to clarify, does this mean we can use Google Play Store to install apps and games? Or do we have to side load them? Sorry for the noob question.

Nope, still need to sideload apps. Google Play Store will require root which has not been achieved yet.

TWRP is not a option if your device is running FireOS 14.3.2.8 or above.
Safestrap v4 can be installed on (rooted) FireOS v4.5.2 and v4.5.5.1. Will not work on versions below or between. Two custom roms are compatible with Safestrap v4: Nexus v4 and CM11. See links for relevant discussion. Key points:
- never perform a stock 'factory reset' with Safestrap installed; brick is likely
- always flash roms to the STOCK slot with Safestrap v4 (replaces FireOS)
- never create or populate secondary slots (contrary to most youtube video guidance; just don't)
- always keep a copy of the rom installation zip on device (root of sdcard) for recovery purposes
- read what needs to be done, understand it and ask questions if needed
- there are many good summaries in the threads but no 'sticky' guide or how-to video. Gota read ...

This's just a quick guide on how to get the Google Play Store installed on the latest Fire OS 5 for Amazon Fire tablets with no Root, PC or ADB required.
This should work on any Amazon Fire tablet released from 2014 onwards (4th Generation and above) that's running Fire OS 5.X.
NOTE (1): To install the required APKs, you may need a file manager from the Amazon Appstore, I used TOTAL COMMANDER - https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00H4IHJ8M/
With later versions of Fire OS or SILK, you can just tap the download notifications as and when you download the APKs or use SILKs download manager, removing the need for the above file manager.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
NOTE (2): You'll also need to enable 'Apps from Unknown Sources' found under Settings > Security of the Fire OS.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Now simply download the 4 APK files below using the stock web browser, SILK and install them in that same order, then POWER OFF and RESTART your tablet and afterwards open up the Google Play Store and log in with your Google account:
1. Google Account Manager 5.1-1743759
http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google...unt-manager-5-1-1743759-android-apk-download/
2. Google Services Framework 5.1-1743759
http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google...s-framework-5-1-1743759-android-apk-download/
3. Google Play Services 11.5.09 (230-164803921)
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/googl...s-11-5-09-230-164803921-android-apk-download/
4. Google Play Store 8.3.41.U-all [0] [FP] 170066753
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/googl...41-u-all-0-fp-170066753-android-apk-download/
In future, the Google Play Store and Google Play Services apps will auto update themselves in the background.
How to install? (Sorry, newcomer!)
I have downloaded the 4 APKs mentioned, but what is the procedere to install them?

Are those the prerequisites for Google play store? i have android system in my car multimedia. it does not have the google play store in it, and when i tried to install it (only google play store) it won't lunch and crash..
so i understand it needs all the 3 apk's in addition..
the version of android i have in my car is 4.4.2 - will the above apk version fit? or do i need different version?

Off topic question (does not pertain to device) - you'll need to ask your question elsewhere. And yes, different versions are needed depending on device type, capabilities and Android build.
I had to install latest Play Store version to get it all running on our Kindle Fire (think it's 5th gen). Version recommended above just went back to home screen.
Is there any way to get multiple Google accounts working using this method? I have a couple accounts that I need to have on devices for various reasons.
Excellent work!

Gmail app allows adding multiple accounts, then they will be accessable by other apps

FireOS yes you can update, Google framework will remain
root after updating, unlikely, at least right away

Thank you. Google Play Services on my Kindle Fire crashed and wouldn't allow me to access any Google Apps including Chrome, Gmail etc.. The message indicated that the apps wouldn't work unless an updated version of Google Play Services was installed and it seemed like the update wouldn't go through. I reset my Kindle to factory settings and followed your instructions and it seems great so far...not asking for a Google Play Services update. Thank you again Gilly10.

Hi, so you can update FireOS. But what about the google framework? Does it get updated automatically? Or if a new versione will be released, do you need to unistall the 4 apk first, and than install a newer version of the 4 apk?
Seems this method is no longer functioning. Applications are not searchable - only the webview application comes up on search results. When I search for my previously downloaded applications, they come up, but state that the administrator has not given me permission to install this item.
Furthermore it is the Google Play store for Work?
Any thoughts? This is happening on 3x Kindle Fire HD 8 devices, all of which worked previously. Running 5.3.1.1.

I keep getting a Parsing error when I try to install the first .apk file. Kindle Fire HD 8.9
I have Kindle fire 8.9. I've downloaded the apps but every time I try installing the first one, "Account manage" I get a "parse error." Do I need different files for my device or am I just doing something wrong?

parsing errors occur for a few different reasons
possibly one of these, but not limited to
app is not compatible with the os version
not much you can do about that other than try an older version of the app
there is a problem with the package installer
try wiping installer app data
some kind of caching error, or another app causing install failure
try a factory reset and/or flash firmware with adb sideload in recovery
