X10 Mini problem? - Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Mini

I recently found my old phone (X10 Mini E10I) and i forgot just how small it was so i decided to turn it into a small MP3 player.
It is working pretty well and the battery life is also pretty good but the main problem i have is that i cannot connect to the play store to install my favorite music apps. Marketplace will not load so i cannot get the Play Store installed. I cannot even get a file manager installed so i can just install the APK's.
Will it be easier to just look into flashing a custom ROM onto the device?
Does anyone have any idea how i can get it to get the Playstore installed or even if i can side load APK's onto it.

It needs to update to newest Play Store, and perhaps also Play Services. It might take a while, if it even work. Leave it on, and connected to wifi, and se if anything happens the next day

[Q] can not install apps from playstore

Recently got a refurb Sony NSZ-GS8. I love the remote with the chicklety keyboard
Device is not rooted, just the Google TV honeycomb OS
I installed many apps *over 150*apps, via side loading and play store
of course 95% of apps either will not install or force close so I did a lot of uninstalling
but I finally got a few things going nicely if a bit slow
Now the play store is messed up...
I can purchase the apps in the Google play store but the install process starts and will never finish
I did clear cache and data for the play store app in system settings and same thing
Then I did a sideload install of Google play and play services and same problem
As a result I will need to install apps on my tablet first then copy the apk to cloud then sideload on Sony Google TV
So what really sux is something like AOL for Google TV can not install on my tablet as I get a message "incompatible device"
I also unplug the Sony NSZ-GS8 when I went away for a few days as the NSZ-GS8 feels too hot for me ,,,
Any ideas suggestions are appreciated
TIA Dave
search for version of your android which is compatible for your phone respectively.

Google play services restart every 10 seconds

Good day everyone first post here and really seeking some help to a headache i'm facing. I know it's long but please bare with me.
What is happening
So this all started when i was frustrated that i only have 80Mb of internal storage on my phone and every time i need to update whatsapp i need to uninstall it and install it again. I looked up some things i can do and what i found was SD maid and it worked really well, it removed junk files and log files to the point where i had 800Mb open i was smiling bright haha, i reinstalled whatsapp with no problem.....a little bit later my phone starts to vibrate every 10 seconds and then 3 seconds later another and this has been going on for the last day. I uninstalled whatsapp thinking that it may have caused this to happen in some way and then i noticed that it's not the cause, my phone is still vibrating and lagging so i checked my running apps and saw that google play services had two services, one running fine and then i noticed that the other one is restarting every 10 seconds, so every time my phone vibrates it restarts.
My setup
Samsung pocket android 2.3.6
Rooted
What i have tried:
First thing i did was cleared Play store and services cash and data and i also did the framework.
It didn't work so i uninstalled play store to factory default and uninstalled services as well, so then installed the latest version from apkmirror.
I also installed a older version just to make sure it's not the latest version that's having this problem.
Things i noticed
The service that get's restarted each time is: com.google.data.gms.persistence and when it's running it's name is google fit.
When i installed whatsapp again just to have it while my phone vibrates like this, i could not finish the install because i needed to authenticate my google drive ownership and it fails to do so because i think the service that handles the syncing is the one that's restarting
I do not know what to do about it because i have tired what i can think of, so if anyone has any idea what i can do i would incredibly appreciate it
Does anyone have any idea to what i can do? the only thing that i can think of is to reset the phone and that would suck
Hey all so after a whole day of trying to fix my phone i finally think i got it working.
So what i did was backup my phone's data and the factory reset my phone.....it was fine for a bit but when i needed to install google play services the problem came back, i downloaded it from the play store so there was no problem with that. So what fixed it for me was installing a much older version of the play services app (latest version is something like: 9.4.xx and the one i installed was 8.3.01) The older version does not make my phone vibrate and also my play store runs faster now as well.
At the end of the day i didn't need to factory reset my phone i just needed to install a much older play services. Hope this helps someone else in the future have a awesome day.

Mi Box mdz-16-ab international version, app installation issue and network issues

Hi guys, i just got my mi box a few days a go and i'm struggling to make it work properly.
I seem to be unable to install apps from google play store, it starts downloading and then fails on endless errors, 400/403/920 and so on...
My network is just fine, i have other tv box connected, apple tv, computers, phones, everything works well on all other devices.
The play store tends to through me error that the network is disconnected though its not.
I somehow managed to side load netflix and latest youtube version - they stream 4K without any problem - so i know for sure the network is fine.
Also, i tried updating to latest firmware (beta, from here: https://beebom.com/how-update-mi-box-android-nougat/) - no help either, still the same issues.
I've also tried every procedure out there, clear cache/data of the play services and play store, uninstall account, create a new google account, nothing seems to work.
It seems that play store is not the only issues, i side loaded gmail - same issues there, same for google drive.
I'm lost, not sure what else i can do to get it work.
Help will be appreciated, i can maybe try to install a new rom but no idea where to get one from.

Maplestory live deluxe

Been trying to figure out how to make this apk run on my andriod phone. It has an offline and online feature but the developers stopped supporting it. I used to play along back then but when I got a new phone I wanted to play it again, only problem is when I get a apk file (Maplestory live deluxe is not on the play store anymore) it gives me a Licences error. So I find a way around that but then it says checking for updates then proceeded to say internet connection is slow please restart the game. It gets stuck in this loop. Ofc my internet connect is not slow and I tried using different wifis and mobile data. So now im stuck. Maybe I need OBB data?But cannot find it anywhere.
Other maplestory apps
I also tried to play the old maplestory app called maplestory thief edition and maplestory Cygnus knight edition. They both are offline and you can download them but the only problem with those is the English version disappeared. They are only in Korean.

Everything GOOGLE has stopped since automatic update also some other apps and AD'S!

Well I am about to smash my phone to bits lol so I'm hoping for a bit of help. Had my le max 2 for over a year and its been ok, it automatically updated not long ago and since then nothing GOOGLE works, playstore wont load, always get the Play services stopped working popping up every 3 mins or so. I have deleted them and downloaded the apk's a million times and it does the same thing over and over. Also some other apps just do not work now.
On top of that I have the other 2 home screens that is all adverts and in another language I'm guessing Chinese, My calendar is also messed up with all extra Chinese writing in it and other bits, I also get advert bars at the bottom when I open certain things.
I now can not even install facebook or anything else as the google playstore does not work I have tried other app stores you can download that have all the apps on and they don't really work either and a lot say they need google play services to work so I get that popping up.
I have no idea about rooting phones, installing customs roms or anything although I have checked videos and I'm still no further what to install or do.
I just want google play to work again so I can have things as I did before
any ideas at all please? if I cant sort it I think I'm just going to go back to samsung
just installed all the google stuff using google installer V2 all seemed to go ok but still says google services stopped , managed to install facebook another way but it says the facebook app is not compatable with my device so the phone is stopping facebook from working :/

some conflict happened after the update, you need to reset factory.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Are you referring to the stock rom 028S? I don't think it is fully compatible with Google Services. After many re-installations, I gave up on it and installed Resurrection Remix 5.8.5 Nougat and never looked back. It frees up tons of memory too.
