[Q] Google Maps no longer downloadable through Market

Hello everyone! New member here.
Just installed Virtuous 2.0 on my DZ 2.3.3 (downgraded, rooted and upgraded) and I realize that I now do not have access to Google Maps. I've tried Market Enabler, and none of the settings allow me to download Google Maps again. From the PC, it says it's not compatible for my device, and from my phone Maps isn't even available through search.
Could anyone help me?

I'd try looking around for a flashable gapps file somewhere that will work with your rom. Also - unless you've been attacked there before, i'd recommend asking this same question in the thread for the rom you are using! Others (who don't look in this forum) may know exactly what is wrong.

I resorted to downloading the .APK from some shady site. I have not reached 10 posts yet and thus cannot post in the Development forums ): Thanks anyway! Thought Maps should have been available for any device on any ROM ):

It is if you just flash the appropriate GAPPS package.

Found it on market.android.com
I found google maps on market.android.com.
here is the link: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.google.android.apps.maps&feature=search_result

I can find it on my desktop but it won't allow me to install it. Can't even find it on Market on the phone. It's ok, I downloaded the APK for Youtube, Gmail and Maps.

i am using MIUI and i dont have google maps pre installed...
so tried to install through website , failed
....
since i couldnt find it in the Market

have a look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1007132

Firefox Browser

I would like to try it on the KF but I am not sure if I need to be rooted to download and install.
Is there a Apk file I could use that you know of?

Not all Android devices are rooted, so it would be ridiculous for a company like Mozilla to only provide Firefox to rooted devices.

Google "Firefox apk"

Mozilla is not the showstopper. Do you know of a way to load Firefox on the kf? One just cannot load anything on the kf, the closed garden is the issue.

Even though Firefox is open source, it does not fall under GNU guidelines. Mozilla still owns the copyright and has requirements for which it will be implemented, very much like Google does with Android.

One can "load" anything they want to the KF. Whether or not it works when you try to install it depends on whether or not it's compatible with Gingerbread and the device's hardware. It's all a matter of installing it to see if it works.
the closed garden is the issue.

????

First, Download this: http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla....droid/multi/fennec-15.0.multi.android-arm.apk (got the link from the Mozilla website, if the mods don't like that i added a direct download link, let me know and i can add a link to the Mozilla page.)
Second, allow installation of apps from unknown services in the Settings
Third, use Quickoffice to go where you downloaded the apk. Tap on it and install it. Enjoy

Is anyone using a ROM with hashcode's new kernel 09/05 having problems with firefox fc-ing upon opening?

If you are reading this, give a medal (and a beer) to @ADeltaX
WT* IS TH1S TO0L??!11?
This tool installs Google Apps on Windows 10 Mobile.
There are still some issues (such as make GMS work) because MS is good to make modder's life harder, so this isn't fully functional and may not work..
INSTALLATION
Requirements:
IPOverUSBSvc installed
Open a CMD as Admin on that folder, then open installer.bat and follow instructions on screen.
UNINSTALL THE TOOL
Go to C:\Data\Users\DefApps\APPDATA\Local\Aow\data\local\tmp and remove all folders and files
After that, go up and go to "app" folder
Remove following apps:
gmscore.apk
After that reboot.
Now you have completely uninstalled AM Gapps tool.
If you have still an issue, do an hard reset.

Thanks for your work. I've tried this script and all seems good. When I open Google account manager, I can log in but then on the next step where it asks me to get news by google (checkbox) the app closes if I go further.
google play games starts correctly, Google Play Services doesn't start (endless loading, phone is not responsable after a while)
Fallout Shelter crashes at this moment, where it tries to connect to google services (without your package installed, a message appeared, that google app is missing)

Thanks for feedback.
Like I said, MS makes modder's life harder, so it isn't easy find a way to make everything working at 100%

Many google apps don't work with microg, it might be the reason, u can create a id and password on xda directly.

Xda one app that you will have a problem with. Easy fix is to go to xda through the browser and change your password. Then go back to xda app. Login with your username and pass. Don't try to click th G icon it won't work now that you are using microg.
What other apps are you using that are giving you a problem?

Its better to add what apps are working which apps are not working in OP, so that people don't report them again.
It would be good if you add that backup and sync zip to OP, as few people like me backup contacts on google.

I haven't listed any because I haven't had any issues with any gapps I use.
Export your contacts to your sim or export your contact file to your cloud storage. You can also download Google contacts from Play Store and APP OP it.
The point of all of this is to reduce wakelock, slim down your ROM and tell Google to mind their business. I didn't add contact sync because it is one of the services that frequently run even when sync is turned off. Ween off Google. Easy is not always right.

Do you mean the back end plugins? Unifiednlp is part of the gsm core for what i read on MicroG. Which plugins did you find worked the best? I've been busy with work to test out which one works the best. Good idea though. Ill put the backends in the zip hopefully tonight.

Who knows what youve done.
Zero issues with Microg.

You got struck because google drive doesn't work on microg, you will have to find another way to restore your data.

Question [REQUEST] Magic Eraser Photos APK

Can someone either dump their APK or share what version of Photos is on your device? Been trying to figure out which version on APK Mirror is supposed to have Magic Eraser.
...Also, I wonder why Google doesn't just release this feature to all Pixel devices...

Magic Eraser is no longer exclusive to the Pixel 6

I saw that, I was hoping someone had a more recent version.

It doesn't depend on a server-side switch as well? The Google Photos app version I'm running is 5.66.0.406885096. I'll see if I can attach the apk in a moment.
Edit: The APK is in the process of uploading through the XDA app, will take a minute or two... Uploaded in new post below.
I love Nova 7's built-in ability to save an APK from a long-press on an app's icon! I knew I enabled that for a reason.

Try this. I'm frankly surprised a 70.5 MB attachment is acceptable on XDA. I coulda compressed it but I didn't; let me know if I should to avoid corruption.

I don't think it's something wrong with your package; it's something to do with the new Photos builds.
I uninstalled all updates for Photos, and I was able to install the 5096/1127 version. The one you posted is also 5096, but interestingly it's 70MB, whereas the only ARM64 versions on APKMirror are the 66MB one (5096/1119) and the 100MB one (5096/1127).
It's really hard to tell what the "latest" version is - the one you posted is the latest version I see on Play Store (5.66.0.406885096) but there's also 5.66.0.4092455188, 5.66.0.409436829, 5.67.0.409192963, 5.67.0.409448818...
I don't know a ton about device specific apps, is there a particular version that's appropriate for Pixels?
