I following the steps to build a custom AOSP image from the source code and flash it on a device (source.android.com/source/building-devices.html)
This all works great, but how can I get the latest Google Play Services onto the device? There is no Google Play store for me to go into even, and there is no way to even sign into a Google Account from the device, since Google Play Services isn't installed.
Is there a way to sideload this easily (using Nexus 5, Android 4.4.4, KTU84P) or even better somehow add Google Play Services into the AOSP build?
I own an Ainol Novo 7 Venus Lite with a stock ROM (build 130328 Android 4.1.1). After reflashing the stock ROM with PAD Product Tools 1.05.02, it all worked well until I started installing apps.
The stock version of the Play Store installed apps without a hitch but as soon as it updates to the new version, the Time and Date no longer syncs right (the time on the Notification Panel, Lock screen, and widget are all out of whack) and apps stop at a certain percentage or stops at Installing...
I've tried deleting the data and cache of the Play Store and Play Services app, uninstalling Play Store updates, resetting my device (it puts me back to the "stock it works then after the update it fails" cycle), and removing and logging back in to my Google account. None of the process worked.
Hi,
My android device is rooted and I would like to disable the Google OTA updates completely.
I did following steps:
Installed Disable Services and allowed it for root access.
Opened Disable Services
Under System Apps, selected Google Services Framework
I found SystemUpdateService is already unchecked.
I checked it and again unchecked it, then I restarted the android device.
However I see the notification for System Update. For its temporary resolution, I unchecked the notification of Google Play Services.
Please help me to disable the Google OTA updates completely
Regards

I'm using Samsung Galaxy Trend 3 SM-G3502U, having android of version 4.2.2
Since this is a Chinese device, so it was normal to be shipped without GApps. So, I tried to to install the latest version among the versions which are compatible with Android 4.2.2 of the following apps from APKMirror:
Google Play Services
Google Play Services Framework
Google Calendar Sync
Google Contacts Sync
Google Account Manager
Still, no luck, since when I tried logging into Snapchat, a pop-up "popped" out, saying that google play services is not supported by my device.
Also, when I installed and opened the latest version of Play Store among the compatible versions for Android 4.4.2 from APKMirror, it showed "Error retrieving information from server RH-01" which meant that I didn't have the compatible GApps installed.
Now, are there anymore ways to try out for me so that my phone supports Google Services Framework, or I am left out with installing a custom ROM?
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!!!
And wait, there is one more information I can give you if you find it useful.
Having all the apps listed above installed, I installed the "Device ID" app by Evozi. It couldn't show me the GSF. The space for that was left out empty instead.
Hello. I will begin with my root problem: I need to install newer (than stock 5.0.2) android on LG v490.
I installed the LineageOS (android 7.1.2), rooting with KingRoot -> using Flashify to boot into TWRP -> installed LineageOS.
During that whole process I was unable to boot to see bootloader (it was just normally booting) using adb. Now it also looks impossible.
Now I would like to install Google Play Store: downlaoded the package and the instructions says (because it's not just .apk file) to isntall this using TWRP. I cannot boot to TWRP. Last time (with stock ROM) i booted into TWRP using Flashify, but Flashify requires root from me. I am using Kingo Root, KingoRoot (and something else) both for Android and PC and every time it shows me "fail" or "Unable to root".
What can I do now in order to install Google Store?

In order to install Google Play Store phone's Android must NOT got rooted.
You install it manually.
How-to:
Download from APKMIRROR these 4 APKs matching your phone's Android version:
Google Account Manager APK
Google Services Framework APK
Google Play Services APK
Google Play Store APK
Install the downloaded APKs in exact this order
Google Account Manager APK → Google Services Framework APK → Google Play Services APK → Google Play Store APK
to get the Google Play Store working correctly.
Finally re-boot
Thank you! Let's see, but...
How can I know which version of Google Play Services is proper for my android version? This is the only APK that has different numbering than android.
@edit
Ok, I downlaoded the latest version of Google Play Services for android 6.0+. After installation in given order constantly I get error that Google Services Framework stopped working. Wrong version or what?

Read here.
Buttons for clearing data and cache for Google Play Services are unavailable :/ Tried to just force stop Google Play Services and proceed with the others (as says in the link provided) but after reboot and running store I am still getting this error. No help in comments in provided article.
Anyone knows which version of "Google Play Services" (and then Google Play Store) should I choose for Lineage OS 7.1.2? I Suppose Play services keeps stopping because of wrong version.

You mix up Google Play Services and Google Services Framework: these are 2 different things!
Google Services Framework is used to update Google apps and apps from Google Play Store. This component provides core functionality like authentication to your Google services, synchronized contacts, access to all the latest user privacy settings, and higher quality, lower-powered location based services.
The required version of Google Services Framework depends on phone's model and Android version.

How do you say I'm mixing these thing? According to few posts above:

1. Acc manager: I found version 7.1.2
2. Services Framework: found version 7.1.2
3. Play Services: Numeration is different than android version! (eg. 20.26.14)
4. Play Store: Numeration is different than android version! (different numbers than above)
How should I determine which version of Services and Store I need to install?
@Morales1235
You still don't get it. :crying:
That was your post

Hence the Google Services Framework ( GSF ) you installed is not compatible!
FYI: The Google Play Services ( GMS) contains the individual Google services and runs as a background service in the Android OS.
BTW: I no longer participate this thread. Have a nice day.
