I've been trying to enable Google Play Store on my OUYA without success. I've tried a couple of times with a factory reset.
My steps are:
Turn on ADB over Network
adb install RootMyOuya.apk
Run the root tool under MAKE & reboot
adb install Mod_Collection4Ouya.5.1.apk
Install CWM Recovery & reboot
(Under MAKE/MOD Collection) Enable CWM Recovery & reboot
(Under MAKE/MOD Collection) Install Play Store & reboot
(Under MAKE/MOD Collection) Enable Play Store & reboot
Run Play Store under MAKE
Enter account info, clear keep informed checkbox
Try to launch Play Store under Make, it appears for an instant and then exits
permissions in system app are all correct
logcat is full of errors but not being an android developer I have no idea which are even relevant
It's at /pastebin.com/4fiFQJGx
I've REDACTED my Google and OUYA account names but that should not be an issue.
(btw the force HDMI resolution ON/OFF switch does not seem to work properly, I turned it on and it won't turn OFF )

You also need the exposed installer, then go to modules section and check the box for the mods you want.

Aha! Thank you VERY much. Obviously and important step
Now I get connection timed out which is, at least, a new problem lol

Maybe go into settings-manage apps and clear data for Google play and play services.
I could never get the store to actually open up. Its on there and you can start it but it then just says no connection.
I would suggest the amazon app store instead, most apps on there will run nicely since the hardware is very similar.
Make sure you go into Xposed Framework --> Modules, and actually TICK the box for the framework using the touchpad, then reboot. Doing this gets rid of the timeout issue.
It is but I just use the amazon store instead
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Tangcla ftw!
Ticking the box for modules worked for me (as stated above)...you have to use the little ouya touchpad, or I just used a mouse.
I can't believe that simple thing was preventing google store from coming up!
Thanks for the tips tangcla (and others).
I know you wrote that back in January 2014, but it still works today! (July 2015)
I do use amazon store also, works great!

So like the Google Play Store, if you install Happy Chick on the stock Ouya Rom it won't show up in the Apps or Software menu. Anyone know a work around, possibly be able to just rename it within the apk to get around it?
The same for me. Any solution?
Hi, don't know if anyone will read this, but here it is:
I suppose installing a custom ROM would also do the trick, but if you want to keep the Ouya ROM (keep in mind that this is not a pretty solution, and that it requires a PC running on the same network as the Ouya):
- Download the ADB tools and install them on your desktop PC
- Activate network ADB on the Ouya (development menu)
- On your PC, go to the ADB folder and type "adb shell am start -n com.xiaoji.emulator/.Entry"
If this does not work, try "adb connect <IP>" with the IP shown on your TV, and then the shell command.
You can create a .BAT file to launch it, which is a cheap hack but works.
OK guys your watch will still work with many Wear OS apps but apps won't sync up with your phone any more. The problem is that the version of Google Play Services on your watch is way out of date.
The solution is you need to sideload a newer version of google play services and then like magic all your apps that can still work with Wear OS 1.5 will work again.
You need to download and install adb fastboot on your PC, and the USB drivers for your particular model of phone. Then go to apkmirror and download the latest version of "Google Play Services (Wear OS)" as an APK.
Now put your Smartwatch into developer mode by going to settings --> about --> build number (click it 7 times, congrats you are now a developer)
Now go to Settings --> Developer Options --> ADB Debugging (enable) and Bluetooth debugging (enable)
Back on your phone, Wear OS App --> Advanced Settings --> Debugging over bluetooth (enable)
Enable Developer options on your phone as well through settings --> About --> Software info --> Build number seven times. Enable USB debugging.
Plug phone into PC with usb and open a command prompt in the directory where you've installed the adb files
Code:
ADB devices
should show your phone unauthorized. Authorize it on the phone popup prompt. Now the command should show your phone as "device"
Code:
adb forward tcp:6666 localabstract:/adb-hub
adb connect localhost:6666
On your watch, authorize the connection
On your phone, Wear OS app, Advanced settings, you should see Host: connected and Target:connected
If you get into trouble, run
Code:
adb kill-server
and try again.
Now you can install the apk
Code:
adb -e install -r (path to apk)
it will take a long while and may appear to hang. Give it time, at least 15 minutes. Go do something else. Wait for the command prompt to come back.
Now reboot your watch and revel in the magic as your apps suddenly reappear.
You also try sideloading other apps your mileage may vary. On APK mirror you can sometimes find older verions of Wear OS apps, look for ones that require Android 6.0+ Instead of 7.1.+
FYI I've tried sideloading several apps, and while many don't work properly, I was able to get Maps working by sideloading
com.google.android.apps.maps_10.35.2-1035250000_minAPI23(nodpi)_apkmirror.com.apk
Hi,
Thanks for this =)
Is there a reason to push the app through the phone instead of directly to watch?
EDIT: just do the same but directly connect the watch through USB worked well for me, including installing more apps like GMaps and Messages.
EDIT2: Just did this, so people could find this workaround faster =) https://support.google.com/wearos/thread/55427445

Unfortunately, I don't use an account by Google. Would you mind quoting your solution here?
Hey first of all, thank you to bring me a light to follow,
I can confirm that if you use usb is more quickly, just I have:
1: installed "15 seconnds adb installer v1.4.3" found on this forum
2: Plug my smartwatch 3 on my pc (windows 10)
3: downloaded the most recent google play services (wear os) from apk mirror
4: rename the downloaded apk with a shorter name
5: placed the apk on C: and then open a power shell window in that location (****f+right click)
6: put this command adb install -r -g aplicationname.apk
7: wait 5 minutes
8: enjoy

Hi people,
I own a sony smartwatch 3, got some problems about sync multiple times. I always found simples workarounds but some days ago, Google dropped support for wear 1.5 devices.
I consider this as an official announcement:
https://support.google.com/wearos/thread/5538033?hl=en
Therefore, we have a "workaround" for those that need more time to buy another smartwatch or else.
Inspired from this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/smartwatch/smartwatch-3/fix-app-sync-smartwatch-3-dead-t4121409
# Download the latest GService for Wear OS
Using apkmirror website you can find the latest apk for "Google Play Services (Wear OS)",
This link will give you the page of GService v20.21.17 which is the latest available on 2020-06-25.
You must ensure 2 things:
- Is it the latest version
- Is it compatible with Android 6.0+ (as it's the wear android version, 7.0+ and above will not work)
You can also download other apks to install, see the "More" section at the bottom of this post.
Soon or later, Google will definitely drop android 6.0. When this will happen, the latest version will not be available anymore for android 6.0+, therefore it will be the end.
# Download/Install adb debugging tools on your computer
There are multiple ways to install the adb debugging tool, I recommend following the steps you'll find on XDA website: https://www.xda-developers.com/install-adb-windows-macos-linux/
Available for Windows, Linux, and macOS.
# Enable ADB Debugging options on your watch
Enable developer mode by going to
Settings --> about --> build number (click it 7 times, congrats you are now a developer)
Now go to Settings --> Developer Options --> ADB Debugging (enable)
Then open and keep the command line window (aka "terminal")
# Connect your watch to your computer
Then using the terminal, type "adb devices", after a moment, you should get a prompt asking for debugging permission on your watch: accept.
In the terminal, you should now see something like "14452D11F536B52 device" when typing "adb devices" again.
If you see "unauthorized" or else, you're not ready for the next step, go back and try again.
If you struggle at this step, you may need specific drivers or else for your watch, google will be your best friend at this point.
# Send the app to your watch
In the terminal, type "adb install -r path_to_the_apk_file", replace path_to_the_apk_file by the path to the file you download from apkmirror earlier.
Then wait, the installation can take several minutes. Once it's done, restart your watch and you should see the apps beginning to synchronize themself =)
----
If you're new to the command-line tool (aka "terminal"), I'll assume you're a window user.
So you may need to type something like "adb install -r C:/Users/Robert/Downloads/file_downloaded.apk", again, you'll have to replace Robert by your windows username and file_downloaded.apk by the name of the file you downloaded earlier.
The best way to get this line right: open the file explorer, click "This computer" in the sidebar, then click on your main hard drive, then the folder "Users". Here you should see a folder with your username, click on it, then go through folders & files until you see the downloaded file. Once it's done, you should be able to get the full pathname by click in the explorer address bar (didn't understand ? See https://winaero.com/blog/show-full-path-address-bar-windows-10-file-explorer/ ) then at this point you should know how to execute the last command by reading again the last step "Send the app to your watch"
----
# More
You can follow this step and install any apk you want, but I don't recommend installing apk not made for Wear OS even if it works
More apps installable this way on your watch if you don't want to wait for app sync:
- Google Messages (SMS), latest is v6.1.095 on 2020-06-25
- Google Maps, latest is v10.35.2 (android 6.0+) on 2020-06-25
The GMaps is a good example about obsolete versions: on 2020-06-25, the real latest available is v10.43.2, but it's android 7.0+ only, so don't expect GMaps to work indefinitely for your watch, it will stop working soon or later.

Thanks for posting a simplified process.
I only used Bluetooth because I have other Wear OS watches that don't work over cable connect, so it's the way I am familiar with. I like to use different watches depending upon activity and mood. The Smartwatch 3 is a great watch for outdoor activities because it is sleek, waterproof, and very sunlight visible.

Hi. In the link to install the adb debugging tool, I can only get as far step 6 connecting my phone. When i type 'adb devices' in the command prompt it says -
* daemon not running; starting now at tcp:5037
* daemon started successfully
List of devices attached
Nothing appear on my phone as per the step 7 "On your phone’s screen, you should see a prompt to allow or deny USB Debugging access"
Can anyone help?
@MrFleas
1) go again on EVERY.SINGLE.STEP this may feel dumb to do but it could help
2) if it does not work, try googling for swr50 USB drivers, you may need to download Android SDK and drivers - then reboot - then start again at step one
3) come back here to thanks or asking for more help

Hi people, just realized we can also download the sony app to our phones (directly from phone or by using adb like on watch) so we can edit stock watch faces again =)
Here's the app to download to the phone: https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/sony-...ditor-2-0-0-20-android-apk-download/download/
Once installed, to edit watch faces, go to wear app, the edit watch faces =)
Seems like the same issue...
My hardly used smart watch is ALIVE again!
Thanks a lot guys!
I have latest but sync not working :/ i have a question is possibile install app with higher api or change apk API level ?
check the play service on your phone and install exactly the same version of the wear app
then it works
Cheers for doing this! Got my old smartwatch working cause of that. If anyone else reading this has issues at the' ADB device' point, and is using a linux based system, remember to use sudo on the commands -as otherwise i found that it would not enable the prompt to let me 'authorise' the device in order to send the apk to the watch.
Question- given that google have disabled the onboard step counter function on wear 1.5 devices (like this one), can we sideload a fitness apk via adb with this method that will then sync to our phones?

Hi, I've got the same issue. I had to change my phone. I've installed the same version of google play services on the watch with the description in this threat. But the phone is still not syncing the apps to the watch. Is there anything more I can do to trigger the sync (already triggered 'resync all app in Wear OS' without effect).
You might try to go Settings-Permissions on the watch and set the Permissions for your app. Sometimes I have got this to make the app work, when it is already installed on the watch but not working.
It works! I first downloaded this version of Wear OS for my phone:
Wear 2.43, the newest one somehow broke the sync for me.
By using ADB with " ADB install -r "I installed the last working Google Play Services for my Watch and also the last available version of Google Fit for Android 6.
Play Services : Play Services Wear OS - 20.45.16
Google fit : Google Fit - 2.10.36
Hi XDA-Developers,
my brother gave me his Philips 40PUK6400/12 to replace my old bedroom tv.
It's an older modell from around 2015 that runs Android 5.1.1.
After factory resetting the tv I am unable to sign in with my Google account. I always receive an error stating my username/password combination is incorrect. This happens during initial setup as well as when I try to open the play store. So far I have tried to to multiple factory resets and to use the wipe tool for Philips Android TVs. After entering my credentials I even get an email informing me that a new device has signed into my account, but the TV doesn't seem to log in.
My brother has also removed the TV from his Google account but this also didn't help.
Any ideas how I might be able to sign into my account?
Edit:
I was able to solve this. It is related to the stock Google Play Services on the TV being too old after a factory reset. In case anyone else has issues with signing into their account on an older Android TV, here is how to solve this:
1. Enable developer options and enable debugging
2. Allow unknown apps in security settings
3. Download the latest Android TV Google Play services apk here: https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/google-play-services-android-tv/
4. Connect to your tv: adb connect x.x.x.x (put in your tv's IP adress which you can find in the network settings) - you will receive a notification on your tv which you'll have to accept.
5. Use ADB to sideload the play services apk to your TV: adb sideload -r C:\path\to\your\file.apk
Now you should be able to sign into your account again. You might get a force close of the Play Store on the first start but everything should work on the second attempt.
Hi,
good finding... I think, the old play services do have problems, when 2FA is disabled...

I have to thank you a lot @Bl4ckX !
I had the same problem for a few days and I'm not familiar with adb so I didn't try your way but it worked perfectly on my model 50puh6400/88
I just adapted it a bit since sideload wasn't available (I'm not sure why)
I choosed the command
Code:
adb install xxxxxxx.apk
to install some file explorer and then I managed to install the last Google service using my usb key.
I hope my alternative method can help some and I thank you again a lot for this inspiration !

you both do not activated 2-Factor-Authentication in your Google Account, right?

Any walkthrou on this... Trying to follow but I totally have no idea where I can find the developer options and enable debugging.
Hi,
you need to press OK 7x on the build number in the INFO menu.

Hi, i did the first 4 points of this guide..but i can't install the apk! First question: the apk must be on my pc or in my smart tv?
Second question (the apk is on my pc): is correct this command "adb sideload -rC:\Desktop\GooglePlayService.apk" (i renamed the apk downloaded below in GooglePlayService)? It appears this message
Hi,
you missed a blank after -r
-r C:\
[email protected]
if I use -r*space*C.\path file, promt doesn't recognize the command.
If I don't use -r, now it appear this (I'm trying to install alternatively es-file-explorer but the message is the same)
Hi, I hope somebody can offer some advice. I have a similar problem to the OP. My TV is a 48PFT5500 with Android 5.1.1, last updated on 13 July 2018 which is the last version avilable from Philips. But now I can no longer log into Google Play Store. When I enter my username and password, it says my username or password is not correct. I have tried many times. I can log into my Google account without problems from other devices, so I know I am using the correct credentials.
After reading this thread, I guess I need to update the Play Services app. But obviously I cannot do this directly from the Play Store because I cannot log into it from the TV. Also, I cannot find any type of File Manager app on the TV, so I cannot even install the Play Store app from a USB drive, nor can I install a File Manager app.
Also I tried switching on two-step verification on my Google account, but this made no difference.
I tried clearing the Play Services app cache on the TV, but it did not help.
I switched on the Developer options and allowed unknown sources and USB debugging, then I tried to connect with adb over wifi. But it doesn't work, adb says "No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it". No message is displayed on the TV to accept the incoming connection.
Maybe there is another way to connect the pc to the TV with a USB cable ... maybe with a type-A to type-A (male to male)? Would that cause a problem due to both devices trying to output 5V over the cable? (Also I don't have such a cable at present.)
Please, any useful suggestions would be much appreciated.
on every reboot(tv) I had to toggle usb debugging off and then on again for adb connect to work, perhaps you can try that. but I had slightly different error, just saying unable to connect.

Also, I cannot find any type of File Manager app on the TV, so I cannot even install the Play Store app from a USB drive, nor can I install a File Manager app.
Also I tried switching on two-step verification on my Google account, but this made no difference.
I tried clearing the Play Services app cache on the TV, but it did not help.
I switched on the Developer options and allowed unknown sources and USB debugging, then I tried to connect with adb over wifi. But it doesn't work, adb says "No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it". No message is displayed on the TV to accept the incoming connection.
Maybe there is another way to connect the pc to the TV with a USB cable ... maybe with a type-A to type-A (male to male)? Would that cause a problem due to both devices trying to output 5V over the cable? (Also I don't have such a cable at present.)
Please, any useful suggestions would be much appreciated.

Hi man, i have the same TV and had the same problem. To fix this you have to unplug the TV and try 1 or two times. I did everything by Wi-Fi, after reading your post i purchased the USB cable but was not necessary.
I did this way:
1 opened cmd or powershell runned as administrator
2 runned adb connect xxxxx (IP address of TV)
3 accepted on the TV pop-up the connection
4 downloaded google service apk from apk mirror
5 used adb install -r xxxxx (location googleservic.apk dowloaded)
It worked! I tried in first attempt sideload -r but didn't worked. You have to use the command "install -r" to reinstall google service.
hi guys, i have a 55put6400 with the same problem, which version of the play services should i download, v7 or v8?
I did not understand how to use the adb install-r command, where do I find the apk file downloaded in the pc?
thank you
Hi,
you can also try:
- reinstall TV
- short install TV with network connection
- wait 1-2 hours (TV is on) and do not press any key
- TV should download the latest Google services in the background

unfortunately the tv has been turned on much more than an hour and does not update the play services, i will update it manually shortly
edit thanks for the explanation, I updated the services and everything works.

šta je 2FA i kako da ga omogućim jer na PHILIPS tv imam ovaj problem sa prijavom na nalog?
HI,
2FA = 2 factor authentication - you need to set this up in your Google Account.
Turn on 2-Step Verification - Computer - Google Account Help
With 2-Step Verification, also called two-factor authentication, you can add an extra layer of security to your account in case your password is stolen. After you set up 2-Step Verification, you can s

2 step verification is on but I still can't login to PHILIPS android tv showing email error and google account password
My TV is a 48PFT5500. I know it is old but it's all I have at present. It is running Android 5.1.1, last updated on 13 July 2018 which is the last version avilable from Philips. But now I can no longer log into Google Play Store. When I enter my username and password, it says my username or password is not correct. I have tried many times. I can log into my Google account without problems from other devices, so I know I am using the correct credentials.
After reading another thread, I guessed I needed to update the Play Services app. But obviously I cannot do this directly from the Play Store because I cannot log into it from the TV. Also, I cannot find any type of File Manager app on the TV, so I cannot even install the Play Store app from a USB drive. Nor can I install a File Manager app because I cannot login to the Play Store.

Is there anything else I can try - I just want to update the TV to get as much use out of it as possible.
Any useful suggestions would be much appreciated. Thank you.

Hi, I replied to you on the other thread. I'll copy here the answer:

Hi TheRealCedax,
I previously tried to login to the tv using abd over wifi. I tried many times and every time it refused my connection. This time I tried what you said, and unplugged the tv, then tried again. It worked! So thank you very much for your advice.
Now I have sideloaded the Google services apk, and I can login to Google Play Store again. Obviously there are not many apps available! Not even a good browser.
Did you manage to find any useful apps anywhere?
Also do you happen to know if I can use a keyboard with the tv?

I have had the same problem but after 3 nights of trying diffrent things it is now sorted.
1. Factory reset the TV
2. set up tv as normal but dont bother to try to log into google.
3. On a laptop download Downloader.apk
3. Download ADB Tools from here : https://developer.android.com/tools/releases/platform-tools
4. Connect your laptop to the same network as the TV
5. Enable Debugging and Unknown sources
6. Connect to your TV using ADB (Google how to do this, its easy)
7. Install downloader using ADB (Again google how to install an app using ADB its super easy and takes a few seconds)
8. On the TV open downloader and use the code 48157 to install Apptoide
9. open Apptoide and install google play services, I also installed Youtube from Apptoide as well.
10. Close downloader and open the goole play store, the login will now work as its the new version of Google play services.
This may seem daunting but its actually very easy and took me 5 minutes start to finish. It works and you will have a fully functioning Phillips android tv.
