hi,
this is my first post,
i've just installed 9.1.0-CRYPTOMILK-ALPHA9-marvel ,on my HTC Wildfire S A510e, and trying to get along...
but, unfortunately, i can't manage to run Google Play Store application.
first, i've tried through browser, after click on INSTALL button, i get message your download will start shortly....or something like this,,,,and actually NOTHING happens....
then, i've search for instalation of GooglePlayStore app, and came across to something like this : com.android.vending-****.apk,
*** various versions, from -1-DL to -4.1.6
i have installed via usb connection to my pc(windows xp sp3), and then command prompt, like :
adb install com.android.vending-***.apk, every single time went ok, got message Success. before that, on the same way i've installed Astro File Manager...runs perfectly.
then ,on my phone, when i start Google Play Store application, every time application begins to load and then suddenly crashes,
without anykind of message !
what i'm doing wrong ?
is there some incompatibility between my phone, android version,google play store application version ?
please help !

I don't understand why I need this? Should I refresh my device?
The rom-developer writes in the first post: "Fourth Build
-Recreated GAPPS - 17MB - Only PlayStore and ContactSync" so there should be the playstore within, shouldn't it?
Can you plz explain how this app can help me?
thx !

Generally what happens there are 2 many gapps available around there. With this app its easier to find the one for ur Rom, Since a wrong one may give you Force Close for all ur apps.

ok thx! i will try it! :good:
I installed the app and it would have installed gapps, but only the regular "bloated" version. So I searched for a compatible version and tried a few times. A compatible Version for the rom [ROM][4.2.2]EnviroROM[V4][Pre-Final] so far is Superslim Gapps for JB 4.2.2.
Thanks for your help!
Hello guys, I bought this phone and I am happy with it. But my question is that, when I get any app update in play store it download the whole app instead of the update size. Because I have a spice mi 1010 tablet(Jellybean) too and when I update same app in that tablet it just update small amount of data and when I update same app in Android One it download whole app.
Is that normal in kitkat that download whole app again when update came?
Also I got Google play v5 material design update in my tablet but there is no update of google play in my Andorid one.
Please help someone.
Application attached .

Need help, developers please look into this matter.
I am having same issue. Can someone please help? The issue is that whenever updating any app via playstore itself, the full app gets downloaded instead of the incremental update. The camera app is over 35mb, many other apps are about the same size. Downloading such big updates every other day is not practical. I have used an HTC device with ICS earlier.. It downloaded incremental updates... Like maybe 100kb to 3mb for apps more than 40mb themselves. I can understand that sometimes the updates can be huge but I have seen this issue every time.
BTW, just FYI, I think something has broke this feature. The day I got my phone, I updated some app and it did not download entire thing, just a part. Now where has that feature gone? Someone please try factory reset and confirm this.
even i have this play store prob.. right from day 1 . haven't found a soln.

To update the Google Play Store on your Android without an APK.
Follow the steps:
1. Open the Google Play Store app
2. Open the side slide-out menu
3. Select "Settings"
4. Scroll down until you see "Build version"
5. Click on "Build version"
If a new build of the Play Store is available, you will be prompted to download and install it. If it’s already the latest, you will get a message that reads, “Google Play Store is up to date,” as you can see in the photo above.
Does your device have this problem? And does the method suggested by you work for even yourself??
I have a strong feeling that this has something to do with cache. Something like the device is unable to understand what the earlier version is while downloading!! Or maybe our ROM lacks the permission to write over the memory where the installed apps are!! And so it downloads entire app and installs it as fresh install because it is unable to patch the update over already installed app... I am just wondering, I don't know much about the android software and this new dalvik v/s ART. I program in other languages.
OK so I factory reset my phone + wipe sd card, and surprisingly Google Play automatically updated to latest v5.0.38 automatically no need to side load it but main problem still there updating apps still downloading whole app instead of only actual update size. I think this is problem of ROM of Android One.(I am still not sure how many people facing this issue.) But I cant update whole app again and again. Please someone find solution of this or contact Google or Micromax for this issue.
yes bro.. u may be right. I faced the same issue. finally I got rid of tat by shifting to PAC ROM. jus move on to custom rom. tats the only soln for now

Hi,
I've bought a moto 360 today, everything is good a part that I cannot download any update.
From settings -> about -> software version says 4.4W.2 and if I try to tap on 'System updated' I see 'Downloading' but after 4 hours there still the same screen and no notification about a new software version. What do you think is preventing the watch to update? I didn't find anything on the android wear app/motorola app to force the update.
Thx

Might trigger the update. It's not like a phone, other than pairing it again, there's nothing to really set up.
after a reset now it says '4.4W.2' but If I tap on 'system updated' it says that the software is up to date...is that the latest version? I thought it was 5.0

Latest version is 5.0.2
When you tap on the Software version, what version of Android Wear and Google Play Services does it have?
Do you have the latest version of the Android Wear companion app installed on your phone? What phone do you have?

I solved pairing with a lollipop device instead of my sony xperia z3 compact...they have both the latest android wear app but apparently on the nexus 5 the watch went straight away downloading the update, on the sony no (I've tried to pair three times with the sony). Super weird..
Good you fixed it. Enjoy!

Hello,
I found a tutorial on how to install the google playstore on the Nubia Z17. It's to long to repeat it here. Anyway for me it worked. I first unlocked bootloader, then I installed the official ROM V2.44 and Open Gapps. After that playstore works until you reboot. To get it working there is a small workaround that takes only 1-2 Minutes and includes activating the airplane mode. Unfortunatly you have to do it every time you reboot your device. The good news is that the Google Playstore finally works. You can find the tutorial here:
https://www.china-phone.net/nubia-z17-playstore.html
Hope this helps other Nubia Z17 Users too

My phone is working normal.
1. Reinstall the original ROM 2.44
2. Unlock bootloader and install TWRP
3. Root the phone
5. Install Open Gapps Arm64 7.1 Full
6. The phone restart and do the Factory Reset
7. Open Google Play and insert your Google account. It will take several minutes for Google to work.
8. Press the circle-home button to start multi task. Pull down the Google Play until you see 'lock icon'.
9. You're done
Note: when your Google stop working, just go to Flight Mode for 1-2 minute and try to authenticate again.
Always keep your Google running by lock it on multi tasking.

Some aspects of Google apps still have bugs. For me, Google Calendar doesn't work and Photos doesn't sync. For full function we'll just have to be patient (or try a custom ROM maybe)

Yes it is true with same problem I have. What you need to do is to find a Gapps package including Google apps you need.

I tried today and i found that after updating to 2.48 we should do clean install after unlock botloader, root and installing gapps. If not the google play wont be working properly.
Can I install version 2.44?I have an unofficial "ENG".
Download package 2.44 update, I put it on a pen drive and then Choose Update Package? Or should I install it through TWRP?

Hi,
Yes I'm a newbie... We have to begin one day
I just received the phone.
After the first power on (plugged) and Wifi connection, the phone automatically did two updates :
original (2.39 ?) to 2.44
2.44 to 2.48.
When I bought the phone, it was mentioned that gaps are not available at that moment (GeekBuying)
Now, they do not mention this limitation on their web site (and the price goes lower )
Is there a new "international complete official ROM ?"
Thanks
Regards
Hi,
After performing OTA update to Android 9 Pie WiFi started to experience serios problems.
It connects to Wi-Fi routers like before, but keep constantly loosing connection. The indication in the status bar is like normal. However all apps requiring internet stop working.
In Twitter app, you can browse the tweets but when you want to update the screen you have 'Unable to get tweets at this time'
In Gmail app, you can browse emails in a folder but when you switch to other folder you will have 'Connection error, retry'
In eBay app, you may go into Bids area of the app and see your bids, but when you switch to a lot the app locks.
WiFi calling is not working.
This problem was reported many times this summer, when Pie was available for beta download (Reddit and Google dev forums have a long list of reports). It was suggested that:
-disable\enable WiFi trick can work this out. (It cannot with XZ2c)
-disable IPv6 in router as the Pie tries to establish IPv6 connection (It is not a solution when you are not an admin of a router, but I checked on 3 networks and diffrent models by disabling IPv6- no use).
-disable WiFi discovery in WiFi settings (it does not work).
-reset network setting (I did lost all my saved networks, but it did not help).
I contacted Sony Support and the only suggestions is that OTA update did not go well, so they want me to make update again via Xperia Companion. Meaning hours of backup and loosing information and settings of dozens of apps.
According to the reports (you can google "WiFi issues after Android Pie update") making factory reset is not a solution. I will try to restore the updated Android 9 via Xperia Companion.
But this is the serious issue equal to bricking a phone that quite new yet. (((((((
seems I am experiencing this as well sometimes after PIE update... sh!t..
I made clean install via Xperia Companion and it did not help. Sony wants me to bring it to the service.

Yes, install flashtool and download a firmware that is still on Oreo (check version number). I used the SG one (4G icon and NFC persistent icon). After flashing it, you most likely end up in a bootloop. Fix this with Experia Companion. Don't wait to long though; once Pie is available for all regions, you can't use Companion to fix the bootloop AND stay on Oreo. You will be stuck with Pie. Good luck!

Sound near impossible. When can I get the latest Oreo for ZX2c? Can you guide me to flashtool thread, so that I could read how to do it?
It's not too difficult. All you need to know is at flashtool.net
Installed previous firmware, all problems gone!! Even the speed is faster than on Android Pie
Now I need to find out how to hide Sony's 'New software available' from the notifications.

1) I donwloaded and installed flashtool
2) I dowloaded and installed the driver https://developer.sony.com/file/download/xperia-xz2-driver/
3) I find the previous firmware for my region, the latest is 51.1.A.11.51 . It is one big 2.2 Gb *.ftf file, I put it into C:\Users\**yourname*\.flashTool\firmwares on my Win7 pc
4) Run the flashtool and pressed the flash button
5) when prompted I switched off the phone, pressed volume down button and then inserted the USB into phone and pc
6) Waited 7-8 minutes untill the flashing is finished.
Disconnected the phone, pressed power and in 10 minutes I have this cool device up and running like it should!

thanks I already downloaded the .11.51 firmware also, but I don't have the ftf, I have all files extracted... probably because I selected to unpack it automatically.. but I thought I still could find the ftf somewhere... will download it again without the unpacking this time and see.
this way it cleared all your data right? and wiped internal sd also maybe? or all your data was still there after the downgrade?

thanks for the info, fastory reset is not a big problem for me, I think I am downgrading also soon! don't like pies... :laugh: redownloading ftf now and flashtool (which is taking ages to complete download... so slow!)
edit: even without unpacking I don't have the ftf but three separated files, will google to see how to create the ftf from the firmware files!
nvm
downgrade successful, great to see Oreo running again! quick settings icons in pie are just horrible..
no update notification here yet, but probably just because the ftf i chose (customized ce1) has no pie update available yet...!

Glad to hear that you succeded! Congrats!
I have read some advice that AdGuard app can block Sony Software Updates, but it required installation of crapware (unnecessary browsers) so I will look into other possibilities to block it. This exercise with Pie update made me spend long hours backing up and restoring, so I will need more time.
Offtopic: I have blocked updates on Win 10, Mozilla and now it is time for my Android phone. What is this world coming to...

I'm using adguard to block ads in browser.. maybe if we disable the Sony sw update app via adb will do the trick? i did this to disable some system apps that were not possible to disable from settings (SwiftKey keyboard etc)
i don't mind about future updates so will try tomorrow if i have time and see what happens!
disabled all update relevant apps from the phone via adb shell.. I hope this will prevent the ota update to show up, will see when the PIE update for CE1 will be released! :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:

you must install minimal adb for windows and send the adb command, I did it on win10 and it worked fine. also disabled headsup notifications this way, hate them!
when you have minimal adb installed, connect the phone via usb (when it is on and debug mode enabled in advanced settings) open a command prompt from the folder where you have adb.exe and run:
adb devices
... to check if your phone is seen. if so, run the following commands to disable sony update apps:
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.sonyericsson.updatecenter
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.sonymobile.mtp.extension.fotaupdate
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.sonyericsson.mtp.extension.update
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.sonymobile.updatecenter.config.latecmz
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.sonymobile.updatecenter.config.autoinstall
doing like this now when I go to settings > sw update I have now the stock android update app opening, not the sony app anymore, so hope the sony updates won't be seen anymore!
if you have already the notification always shown you can try the above and see if after rebooting the phone, it disappears or not..
let me know!
