Hi all...I have a little big problem...
Yesterday I started to remove the applications that come by default in MIUI and can not be uninstalled...I did it using MTKdroidTools. The fact is that I started to delete Apps like a crazy man and now I find a problem...I do not know what I uninstalled and what not, but now Google Pay does not work for me. The App is apparently perfect, but when I try to pay it's as if it doesn't work. It's not NFC because I try with other App Bank and I can make payments, but with Google Pay (in which I have another card) does not work. It's as if it didn't detect that the mobile wants to pay.
Do you have any idea what service or app I could uninstall that doesn't work?
The truth is that I don't have the slightest idea what it might have been...
I suppose that if I don't find a solution I will have to restore the phone from the factory...I hope that way all the services and default applications will be reinstalled. I don't have my phone rooted and the bootloader is lock.
Greetings and thanks.

Okay I have applications on my tablet that i got through alternative ways, and the market shows i payed for them but i didn't so i cannot update them. I want to pay so i can get updates but the problem is i cant get the market to allow me to pay for them because its linked to my google account. Is there a way around it so i can pay for it? I tried using titanium backup to destroy the market link but that's a no go, still shows i payed it so i cant buy to update. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you and i will hit your thanks button.
Try and backup the app + data, uninstall, reboot, purchase and restore just the data.
Have you tried uninstalling the app(s) using Titanium Backup (keep the backup, just hit the uninstall button) ,then go to the market, re-install and purchase the app? Even though the market says purchased, when you go to update, you will never be able to without actually purchasing through the market because the market keeps track of what you purchase by association of your gmail. Tempting as it may be, NEVER get paid apps outside of the market for at least 2 important reasons : 1. SUPPORT DEVS! These apps take time and expertise and a number of other things, I'm sure you don't work for free, right? 2. Malware can be added to apps and you won't even know it, even if you use the latest/best antivirus/malware protection available! At least in the market you have a degree of protection against such bad things because a Dev does not want bad reviews and Google's Bouncer checks apps before they are allowed to be listed to minimize the chance of mailicious software. Sorry, really tried hard not to preach, just some friendly advice.

I have had this issue before too, and all my apps are from legal sources. OP may have done nothing wrong, because Amazon app store, getjar, and others show up this way in the Market. In TiBu, you can long press a problem app and select unattach to market and it will not show up. But if you want updates and to keep your data, the best way is what Gibeon said.
Correct I've gotten and paid on other markets. Ty for all the suggestions, ill try them out. Some apps I don't know what market I used for payment, but I rather just to buy again then figure it out. I did try uninstalling through titanium backup, a while back I used titanium backup and used the option of market doctor and somehow it links it to Google and can't figure it out to get rid of it. If I delete an app and destroy market link and go to Google online even with my computer it says I have purchased it already but errors out to get it. I'll mess around with it, shoot I guess I can make a second gmail to do it lol. Again thanks for your help
There is an app its name "freedom" this app is use to pay from Google play store for free. I'm install this app and use to hake some app. But after some day when i try to open the Google play store they say "no connection" , and when I try to login to Google account in setting they say no Internet connection
That's what you get for messing with google.
Uninstall that crappy app (because that's what they are) or else do a factory reset (not if you're on 4.0.4 please, or you'll kiss your phone bye bye).

Bad idea to talk about that app here. (xda-DEVELOPERS)
Anyway, google actually can find out about you using this and they can practically ban that "freecard" thing (i don't use it). They could actually also file a lawsuit (yes it's possible).
Still you did this, i can help to give you second chance. I've heard "uninstall all updates" works when this happens, and you can use Google PLay as normal (i don't know if this is true)
Haven't heard about the blcoking of the account though, but try making a new one.
As gastonw said: GET RID OF THAT, before you go way over the line...
*EDIT* Also as gaston said, wipe the phone after you do this and reboot
Alright so basically everything I'm about to say will make me look like an idiot. I've poked around on my phone removing a bunch of stuff it looked like I didn't need with some of it being recommended to not be removed and one day I couldn't connect to the google play store because it said check your connection and try again with a retry button and hitting retry would just bring the profile panel out from the side. So I installed the alternative App Store Aptoide and everything was fine because I didn't need the play store. i think I may have used lucky patcher the first time I screwed up the play store and tried to install clean versions now that I think of it. But now no google app whatsoever works including stuff like snapchat that says I need to update google play services in order to continue and then it takes me to my broken play store. I've tried to uninstall updates and reinstall the google apps to no avail. Please help! I'm slowly losing functionality of my phone

Your best bet will be to reflash a stock rom for your device. Also Aptoide and lucky patcher are warez apps and not allowed to be talked about on the site. Either one of those could easily have had some malware embeded into the apks.
Word of advice. Unless you know what your doing dont go deleting things.
Thanks, sorry I didn't know about those apps. Roughly how much will I lose by flashing a stock rom?

You will most likely be starting from a clean set up so back up everything you need like pictures and such.
Also this is probably also not allowed but where can I get a stock rom since I never backed mine up ? I know I'm stupid

Look in the forums for your device. A simple Google search for stock rom (device name) should get you what you need.
Got a no mark S4 clone on 4.2, perfectly happy with it, got CWM and a new rom on it, its fine.
I have exposed and boot manager and once a day it has its icon telling me 'google play services' has auto installed, and every other day an app called 'recents' with a sort of C:\ terminal icon. Now, neither of these I want, I've deleted them so, SO many times, selected 'dont auto update' and also 'dont notify' from within google play, set my firewall to block anything google when on 4g etc...
Is there ANY way to stop it installing stuff I dont need?

The only way is to build a new aosp rom for your device. My advise is remember that you get what you pay for and clones never really have any of the hardware they claim they do. I think you will find you are better off ditching the device and buying a new one.

That doesnt actually help me at all.
The phone is fine, no issue with it. Has a new rom on it, specs were as described, its a problem with google, and the play store auto installing, it did this on my old S2 and my galaxy tab stock, so its not the hardware.
There must be a way to stop the play store doing this apart from uninstalling the play store as I am currently doing.

Then that will lead me to think it is one of the apps you have installed. Some shady apps like CCleaner will install other apps. I would wipe the device completely and then install your apps one by one until you find the issue.

LG 3Gs Android 5.01 Lollipop with App2SD and Kingroot. I know: it is a nightmare but I made it so and live with it. I can change it. I mean: remove App2SD however looks like this works almost OK. I use McAfee Security. I cannot update Android cause it's rooted :/
The problem: My strong suspicion is one of Google apps is broken. Don't know which one. Maybe I made it using Apps2SD 'remove broken apps' tool and removed few parts of something :/. I am not sure. The problem happened after updade of Google App but I am not sure this is the case, cause I removed upgrades and no change..
LG works quite OK until trying to log into Google account. I cannot finish it through Google services confirmation. I used to few days ago. It stops now at the last confirmation of settings. Doesn't go through it. Anyway I have my Google data available after logging in - like calendar or contacts, but after couple of minutes my phone blocks.. like trying to reload and freezes. I need to remove battery to start it cause no button works :/
I can open my Google Play Shop before crash but no update works. It starts an update but no single Byte downloaded.
Moreover: in SETTINGS..MEMORY I don't see any apps data memory use - except the free space on disk. Nowhere it's visible :/
I tried few things:
1. removed GOOGLE App updates and turned it back to factory version. No change.
2. I tried to uninstal updates of Google Play Store. I can't do it.
3 Of course I did reset the data from anything suggested: Shop, Google and Downloader..
4. My Google account on smartphone was reinstalled.
All above didn't bring any progress. :/
==============================
Pls. suggest what's wrong and how to remove/reinstall it? Thanks in advance.
OK. I uninstalled Google Play Shop updates and it helped for 2 days.. In the meantime I updated all possible apps via the factory G.Shop version. And once I tried to move few apps to SD card - the problem came back. Let me remind: I have Apps2SD but I didn't use it this time. I moved only apps to SD traditional way.
Now I try to uninstall Google Services' updates, but it's not going.. The smartphone restarts and blocks.. like above.. PLEASE HELP.
