Cannot install Google-related services - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
I have a ZTE S2004 from China that does not have the usual pre-installed Google apps. I had e-mailed the manufacturer (both the North American and Chinese customer service) and was notified that because the phone is from China, it does not support Google services.
I recently found out about and downloaded KingRoot v4.5 and Root Explorer v3.3.5 to try and install Google APKs as described in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1874285. I installed the APKs , then changed the permissions to align with the other APK files, restarted the phone and then tried to install the apps via the APKS. They all said installation successful, but the apps crash and do not work, with the error message reading "Unforunately [program] has stopped".
Thanks.

Most likely because that thread is 3 years old. The apps are very outdated. Would try the same steps with the updated version of the Google apps.

Sorry I forgot to mention that the phone is using Android version 4.4.4 and I read that some of the APKs only supported 5.0+. I am unsure how to proceed.

Should just need the Play Store and Google Services Framework installed to get started. With 4.4, they should be placed into /system/priv-app with the correct permissions. 0644 I believe. Once placed there, permissions set, and rebooted, you should be able to access the store and download the rest of the stuff you need. I'd just grab them from a 4.4 Gapps package. They will be slightly outdated, but should be easily updatable.

I have encountered a problem with the Play Store installation. I had downloaded a newer version of Google Play Store and have tried to uninstall it, but it still remains and I fear it is blocking the 4.4.4 version. I cannot remove it by using the default removal option or even root explorer. I attempted to reset the phone but that has not worked either.
The installation for Google Services Framework was successful, but when I tried to use the Google Play Store, it would open and subsequently close immediately, no error message showing and the process itself still running.

So you've deleted it with Root Explorer and it came back after reboot or there was an error when trying to remove it?

I'm not sure but you can try this.
Root your phone,get a new custom rom.
use a vpn service app to access internet on your device. i think that will do the work.
Note: select VPN provider of somewhere outside china

Try this and let me know

I am unsure which custom ROMs are available, as I have been unable to find any for my phone model, S2004. The most common ones I've seen are the ZTE Blade and ZTE Warp.

Then you can do one thing, download firmware of your device but of some other country. It may work for you.

There is no other firmware available, my phone is currently only available in China.

Any update on this ? I have the same phone and it's useless without the google related apps (and it would be great to have a newer version of android on it too)

[SOLVED] Play reverted to Market, can't download apps

Hi there
I hope someone can help me or give me a pointer. The short story is that Google Play has reverted to the Android Market (v2.3.4) and I can't download anything from the Market.
The longer story is this...
I have a Samsung Galaxy S2, bought sim-free over a year ago, running Android 2.3.3. Yesterday I had a problem with Google Play not being able to download some apps. This was clearly wrong: I had 1.5GB free of 16GB. In the course of trying to fix this (ha!), and trying to find recovery mode, I borked the device further. Google Play reverted to Android Market v2.3.4, and some apps got messed up in random ways and consistently crashed. I uninstalled some of the crashing apps, but I still cannot download anything from the Market in order to reinstall them.
I've cleared cache and cleared data for various apps and services: Market, Download Manager, Google Play Services (odd that that's still there), Google Services Framework, and maybe some others.
The problem with the Market is that when I touch to download an app it readies itself for the download (moving diagonal lines on the progress bar) and then the progress bar disappears as if it's finished. There is no download, and certainly no install, but no error message either. On the other hand my web-based Google Play account says I've just downloaded it. And meanwhile my web-based Google Play account says there are no devices associated with my account.
Given the situation with Market, I can't even download something like MarketFixer which may help. I can sideload apks, but I can't find a (legitimate-looking) apk like MarketFixer to download.
I've never rooted my device, so I don't expect to have to do that to fix this. Before do a factory reset, does anyone have any ideas?
Many thanks
Nik
Update: Solved in thread below
ah darn!! i thought i could help you, up until the point where you said you didn't root . If you rooted then you could just install the latest version of google play

Thanks for even thinking of that, dragid10.
Hmm... theoretically, if I routed, where would I get the latest version of Google Play from? I can't access the Market, after all.
There are a few threads in the apps forum here on XDA one is http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1932489
I also don't think you need to be rooted to install it. Just make sure you turn on unknown sources from settings(either under applications or security)
Also have you tried uninstalling updates for the market or removing your Google account from your phone and re-adding it.
Edit:Updated thread URL original one was a closed thread.

nsmith4, thank you. That's moved me a bit forward. I couldn't find a Google Play apk, and now I've got Google Play back on my device, and the web version of Google Play knows about my device again.
(I did try to delete my Google account and it refused me. It said it was needed by some applications and should do a factory reset instead!)
So now it seems I'm back to my original problem: I (still) can't download any apps from Google Play because it says (wrongly) there's insufficient space on device. I shall keep looking for an apk of MarketFixer or similar. This problem is now the same as the one reported here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1436188
although of course I cannot download MarketFix to help me fix the market.
Update: That install of Google Play didn't stick. When I rebooted the phone it took me through the Android initiation process (asked for Google username and password) and Market was back in place of Play.
Looks like a problem with factory resetting every time you restart. That is a bigger problem. Google Play will automatically update itself (all update to com.android.vending will).
Try taking the ICS update (if you haven't already), you need a fresh install of the OS. Or you can root and install a ROM. Same thing

You say you "borked the device further". The question is, what happened? What did you do, and what got borked, in what way? If you don't even know, then it will be difficult or impossible to repair. The easiest and fastest solution will be to install a fresh ROM, like Gagdude said.

[Q] Daxian TD888 MTK6589 ROM help?

I'm in need of some kinda urgent help and advice regarding a phone i have just purchased for my mother.
I've bought her a cheap Daxian TD888 on the MTK6589 chipset and i'm afraid i have been a silly boy and not done my research before purchasing - I was under the impression that it came with the Play Store installed etc and sadly, it comes with a hard to use chinese ROM.
Mothers being mothers, mine isn't anywhere near tech/phone friendly and this is her first smartphone (upgrade from a 6 year old Nokia/symbian brick) so i was wanting to get her onto a nice and simple stock android 4.1 or 4.2 or even a CMxx that i can just help her along with.
After some very panic based searching today, i'm not seeing much that can help me... infact... nothing regarding this phone at all.
So... have I been a dumbass and bought her a lemon or is there anyone that can help me out with advice or pointers on how to get a normal android ROM on this thing?
I'm not massively experienced with rooting but have managed it a couple fo times in the past on my old Nexus One.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I could probably help you get it rooted and that would allow you to install Play store on it as well as delete any chinese apps that sometimes come on the MT65XX devices if interested. As far as the rom goes, is there not an option in settings to change language to English? I have bought a few MediaTek devices directly from china, when I received the phone it had english on it already but when I reset the phones I would have to go into Settings and change chinese language back to english.
Motochopper should root your phone:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2252248
One thing with these phones is that the android version is not always what is shown in Settings > About phone. Try using this tool from the first post of this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2160490&styleid=18
make sure you enable USB debugging on your phone first and it will help tell which version of android you are really running. If kernel say 2.6.xx you are on GB 2.3, if it is 3.0.xx then you are on ICS and if it says 3.4.xx then you are JB. I bought a MT6575 that said android version 4.0 in settings, it said gingerbread 2.2 on the box (I know 2.2 is Froyo), then on bottom of box it said Froyo 2.2!
Thanks Klown80 -
I'm just into work now so I'll have to hook it up to my own PC and root when i get home later... i'm just in full on panic mode over this (its a time sensitive issue as she's due to be in hospital for an extended period and i want to get this right for her before then)
Regarding the language settings in the current/stock rom, it has english US selected and while a lot of the language is in english, pretty much ALL popup dialogs are in chinese and the browser is unusable (all chinese text based) so... hence the panic.
I was (foolishly) thinking it would just be a simple enough flash to CM or stock android and hey presto - full english ROM.
I hate it when i don't do my homework first.
So... you recommend the root first, check exact android version number and go from there?
Even if it turns out to be an older 2.1/2.2/whatever version, i'd be happy enough to get something stock and full english based on there if its possible.
As she's never had a smart phone, it will all seem super smooth and flashy to her anyway.
I have now rooted (i think..) however, the superuser app comes up with an error upon opening -
superuser binary (su) must be updated
and i now i'm kinda stuck.
I have downloaded and tired various versions of the play store and while the at first allow me to enter google accounts details, it always crashes after that.
Every time i open the play store app, it just closes again.
Any suggestions on where i might be going wrong?

Sounds like you need to update the binary then, if it allows you. If not then the root did not correctly root your device and we will have to go back a step and get that fixed first. As for Play Store, it usually takes more than just the Play.apk file to put Play Store on your device if it did not come with it stock. You also need (I am going off top of my head, I can give you exact names later) Google services framework.apk, Google login services.apk, Google Play services.apk. You need to have root to to this because you will need to move the vending.apk to /system folder and possibly change permissions on the apk before you install it. Once we can confirm root I can help you install a working Play Store if you like.

I've no idea how to update the binary so I guess i'm looking at a re-root.
I have had the usual issues of drivers not wanting to work (the Motochopper root process getting stuck at the daemon starting point) but I've manged to get the process to work twice so far.
(I've tried 4 different driver packages and they have all given the same results)
Could you possibly advise on how to update the binary file for superuser? I've just tried the root again and it skipped installing superuser as it was already found on the phone.. i haven't felt this noobllike in some time!

Try uninstalliong Superuser or SuperSU and try again. Su binary should ask you if you want to update when you first open SuperSU, if you have Superuser, then you will need to open the app and go into settings to update binary.

It was aksing to try and update etc but its chashed every time - I was thinking that the root hadn't worked properly or something... anyway, I've uninstalled Superuser and reinstalled from a newer apk file (v3.2) i downloaded.
Its now running ok. Now that superuser is working... whats next?

Ok, is it just Superuser and not SuperSU correct? Can you go into settings in Superuser and towards the bottom there should be an option to update su binary. If it is SuperSU it will ask to update on its own when you open it. either way make sure it lets you update binary. Once binary is updated download and install any app that asks for root acces, so we can see if superuser request pops up.
Once we have confirmed root we can move onto installing Play Store. To do this you will need to be able to install a file explorer like ES file explorer so we can install the files we need for working Play Store.

In the superuser settings, there isn't anything apparent for trying to update the su binary.
the list reads as follows:
Security
Apps List
Log (on)
Notifications (on)
Backup apps/preferences

HUGE thanks to Klown80 for the advice and patience!
For anyone else in a similar situation with an MTK6589 cheapo phone, and had issues with the Motochopper root method (the root getting stuck at 'daemon started successfully' etc etc.....
Klown80's chinese root tool works a treat. You will have a chinese superuser app that may be a little annoying (you might be able to swap it for SuperSU or something but I had issues doing that so i've kept the chinese one) but the root works perfectly and the instructions given by Klown80 in the linked thread are very easy to follow.
I still had some issues with getting google services installed so you may want to look for a play store installer workaround - I know there is a cheeky little chinese mod apk that can be used to get the play store working, but i can't post it here.
Should anyone come across this thread and know of a good, stock english rom that I might be able to use, please leave a comment!

[Q] Chinese Coolpad 8017 - Still can't access Google Play Store after root.

Hi there,
I have purchased a Coolpad 8017 mobile phone in China running Android 4.4.2. I have (apparently) rooted the phone using Kingo Root and Super SU is functional. I attempted to install Google Play and the associated framework using the guide on theandriodpit.com:
Here is the guide:
Download a couple of APKs, you can usually find the newest bundle in a zip package on XDA Developers:
•Google Play Store (the newest version you can find)
•Google Services Framework
•Google Login Service/Account Manager
If you are rooted you can copy them to your root directory to System/App using a root manager like ES File Explorer. Then just restart your device.
When I try to access Google Play and it asks me to enter my account information, this message appears: ''Unfortunately, Google Services Framework has stopped''. Then after inputting my email and password, it hangs on the 'Signing in....''This can take a few minutes.....'' screen.
Is my phone rooted properly? Have I missed any important steps? What else could be the problem?
Thanks,
Andrew.
I can't install a new custom ROM as there doesn't appear to be any available for my device yet. Please help.
I'll take my question elsewhere. You're helpful folks aren't you?

[Q] Google Play does not open

Hi all,
I am new to this and sorry if I am repeating a thread. I have searched and haven´t really found my answer.
So I bought a Chinese phone with MTK6735 and Android 5.1. The phone does not come rooted.
The issue is that it does not come with Google Play or the GAPPS. I downloaded a copy of Google Play and installed it directly from the web browser of my phone. Now, when I click on the Play store, it doesn't really open, it's as if fails to load the app. (crashing immediately).
Can someone please advise?
Thanks
Download Google Play Services
All you need to do i download Google play services.
You can find the link by searching on Google.
Download the gapps .
Download the Gapps (search google)and flash it through recovery then it may work,i am not sure but i think it will work

The Play Store crashes because it must be installed as a system app, and when you install it from an .apk it installs as a user app. It must be converted to a system app. But this requires root.
Sorry to bother again. I have tried with many methods and I still can´t.
I have tried downloading a google installer by Eric Xiang. This installed the Google frameworks and play services, but when I open Play store, it just tells me "Unfortunate, Google Play Services has stopped working". So, there's no way to open it.
Alternatively, I have tried to root it, and then install a recovery (as it was not installed by default). But here, I am having problems in rooting the device. I have tried with latest version of Kingroot and still failed. Not too sure, it may be because the device is with Android 5.1? or because the device has one of the latest Mediatek chips MT6735?

Again, you have to be rooted. Mediatek can be difficult. Sorry, but I am no help to you with this.

Can't install apks

When I try to install an app it says app not installed. I have tried signing the app, changing the version number and can't get it to work. I have tried installing apks I have downloaded and patched apks from lucky patcher and nothing works. So is there something that doesn't allow the phone to install modified apps?
I can't install samsung keyboard apk on my samsung galaxy s9+
Are you trying to install a new version of an apk that's already on your phone? If so, can you uninstall the older version first?
it is Android 8.0 security features. Google removed install unknown source. You need to give specific permission to file browsers or apps that does the install - for example, if you have app, copy to your phone, and open Samsung File, and click to install.

Yeah I did that to allow installs from Samsung file browser and lucky patcher but still not installing. It let's me push the install button and starts the process then says app not installed. I made sure that the previous version is not installed and reset the phone but still not working
Yeah I have allowed installs from the apps I am using to try to install and there isn't a previous version on the phone I made sure to uninstall the app and restart the phone after and still not allowing the install. It starts the install then says app not installed

the app you trying to install, unmodified one, go apkmirror.com and search for it, it should list different version, some apps has arm and arm64 version, download it to your phone, and install it.
your s9/s9+ are arm64

Emm nobody?
Samsung blocked sideloading most of it's system apps. Nothing you can really do about it.
Replace app with tutuapp
Your Android application may not be suitable for them. What you need to do now is:
Try updating Android, otherwise you go to the store by reinstalling your device, but this is very time consuming and costly. You can also use tutuapp android (visit tutuappplus.net to download) this free app store that helps me use great apps for Android.
