[Q] Latest Version of Google Apps - G Tablet Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

What is the latest version of Google apps for the G Tablet? I am running Cyanogenmod 6.0.1-Beta4-Harmony and Froyo 2.2.1, both installed December 2010. I have gapps-mdpi-tegra-20101020-signed.zip installed but have found some bugs in the Google Calendar app as well as some other minor bugs and would like to have the latest version of the Google apps on the tablet.
Related, or unrelated, I have problems with Market not wanting to download the latest version of Google Maps, version 6.1, I believe? The Market application tries to begin downloading the Maps app every time I start the Market app but never begins to do so successfully, much less, of course, finishes. Many other apps have been successfully updated while I have had this problem for the last three or so weeks.
Any ideas?

[Q] Problem Updating apps (Aldiko, mVideoPlayer,MSNBC)

Is anyone having problems with updating to the latest Aldiko or mVideoPlayer versions on the Market? The updates wouldn't install for me (I'm on rooted stock) and I lost the versions I had. The MSNBC app is also FCing since I updated it. I'm leery now of updating any apps, in case this is a problem with my device - although other apps are updating without a problem.

[Q] Google maps not updating to v7

On my previous Galaxy S3 with Android 4.1.2 (I can't remember the exact build), I had the new v7.x Google Maps. I had to get this replaced with another Galaxy S3 which has the current latest release build of 4.1.2, XXEMG4.
When I try to update Google Maps with Google Play, it's now only giving me version 6.14.4. I've tried uninstalling it, uninstalling the Play Store, clearing data from both apps, but I still end up with 6.14.4
If it's relevant, I have Play Store 4.3.11 and Play Services 3.2.25 (761454-36).
Is there any way to force the latest maps update through the Play store? I don't really want to install an APK directly, as it means I probably won't get the next release either.
Thanks.
Edit: My issue seems to have resolved itself with the recently released Maps update, which appeared in the Play store.
Well, i'm on 4.3 and the version from play store that i installed was v7, if you're not getting it automatically, and you're cleaning the Maps app cache, data and all and still don't get it, try installing the apk, it's not the latest version it's v7.0.0, so install it and try to update to version 7.1.0

The extracted apk is usually in Themes and Apps .

It seems they pulled the update for me as well. Not that I'm complaining. I hated The New maps

Same here, guess they have pulled the update for Galaxy S3. Guess it may have something to do with my (and of course others) complaints and feedbacks sent.
do u already have the update? play store still won't give me the v7.1.

Seems like the problem is not really a problem, they disabled updating to v7 for devices running Android 4.1.2. Happens on my other Samsung galaxy device too. This doesn't seem to be occurring for 4.2.2 and above.

The "rollout" delay is extremely slow to be accepted since the 16th of August that 7.1 was announced...
I am also betting on an update being pulled for some reason because I am getting all other recent Gapps updated from the Play store in the usual timely manner - 1 or 2 days post announcement maximum.
So, whoever got it at first got it, if uninstalled for any reason, will be stuck at 6.14.4 until.....
P.S: Samsung galaxy s2 here on stock JB 4.1.2
PS2: As for not updating if u install the apk, I can confirm that its not valid since I ve updated many gapps in the recent past that I couldnt wait for and got all the subsequent updates from Play on time. Latest example being Google+
That's why today, tired of digging an explanation in the Maps issue, I directly installed 7 from the XDA thread
Solved
My issue seems to have resolved itself with the recently released Maps update, which appeared in the Play store.
Same happened here. Seems that the 7.2 update resolved the unknown issue. It came 1-2 days later after its initial release as a Play store update, over the 7.1 version which was APK installed
So. case closed

Google Play updates problem

I've noticed that google play keeps updating apps that have been already updated. Same apps are being updated with the same versions of software over and over again. Has anyone noticed this? I was not able to find references to this issue on the internet.
how do you know the app is updating to the same version? it could be that an app is releasing new versions very often.
By the version

P7510 with Lollipop, having trouble finding a stable version of Google Play Services

So I'm using this ROM and everything works fairly well.
The issue is that apps like Gmail, Hangouts, Keep (all of which I got from the play store), etc say that I need to upgrade my Google Play Services for them to work. My GPS version is 7.8.87 and if I update it through the play store, it starts crashing repeatedly. I've tried a few different ones on APK mirror (granted I'm not exactly sure what version is the "correct" one) and none have worked.
Do I need to just figure out what version works for this ROM, or try a different GApps package? I'm a bit of a newb so sorry if I'm way off base.
I found it worthwhile to upgrade to 7.1 Nougat. Lollipop for me had got too sluggish even before the Google Play services problem. Gmail doesn't prompt me to update GPservices, but I don't know about Hangouts or Keep.

[A small doubt] Installing apps outside the playstore

Hello Guys! Today, I opened Google photos app and it said to new version available update the app and it took me to playstore but in playstore it says the app is up to date. I checked from apkmirror and i seen newer version which is not available in playstore. I Installed the photos app from apkmirror.
Can i update the app automatically from playstore as i installed it from apkmirror and i also seen a newer playstore version in apkmirror. Can i install that? Does the other devices receiving faster updates than our device? Why there is a version gap in our device and in apkmirror?
Today i also received September update. How many of you guys installed it. Are there any changes or is it the same security updates we just receiving?
if you are not beta tester, playstore wont show those apps! also many apps are market based! perhaps playstore is not offering that particular app to you at that time and place!
