I noticed after installing play games back on my S3 after a fresh install after going to M3 the games don't seem to be tied anymore. if i launch a game from it's shortcut or through play games i don't get the icon with my avatar on it as the game is loading and achievements are not updated unless i run the game from my N7.
i signed out of my play games account cleared data on it it's just not working correctly from my S3.
Any ideas?

hello everyone,
i recently purchased a fire phone and my problem is this, i cant get google play services to work with google games, when i try to use google games with google services 4.4.52 it starts but tells me that it needs to update to the latest version 7.5.74 after updating to 7.5.74 google games and anything that uses google services stops working and google services will not even open, any help with this would be amazing since i have been struggling with this for about a week.
also for anyone that needs google play store you can uninstall google services and it works great and so does that games app it just will not pull your game saved files from the server.
i am using a amazon fire phone with the latest O.S.
Hmm... Did you install the Google play services and store from the xda general section? And did you install Google play games from the play store? I cannot reproduce your error and I am playing Google play games (specifically those games that require that particular app).
You may just need to remove the Google play services and related apps and reinstall them. Maybe you used an outdated guide?
Can you please post the link where you got all the apks for all the google apps and services?

I am having this same issue. I got them from a topic here, the link was to a onedrive or something that had all 4 apks.
Which version of the OS are you using? It seems people's having troubles with Google Play Services when they use non-US versions.
Was going to use Aptoide or something like that instead the Google play stuff for my Android apps
Will that work ok or will it have problems also ?
Thanks
You could use any store in theory, but some apps need the Google Play services, otherwise they won't start / work properly.
The Playstation app for example. I didn't want to install a whole GAPPS package, so I installed only the Play services.
In that case it worked, but I can't promise it will work for every app.
No,
I guess you could always switch to a windows phone if you don't need any apps ;o)
The only use I have found for gapps is downloads from play store, and even those apps can be sideloaded without the need for gapps. Otherwise, in my opinion, gapps framework is a constant drag on fire-phone. They use up resources in the background.
I have about 7 androd devices and have disabled Google Apps on almost all of them, and life is good.
Same here, using F-Droid and a 2nd repo I made for myself. I'd rather buy (or donate for) apps directly, e.g. here on XDA instead of using the Play Store.
Novice users tend to prefer Google Play Store & services, because it's comfortable and (usually ^^) hassle free, I suppose.
I have apps I've paid for on google play store and there are other apps there that are not on amazon's app store so yeah you really do.
I'm still running 4.6.1, so no Google Play Store or Services for me. I get all my apps from Aptoide and most of them work fine. So you don't really need to use Google stuff but as mentioned some apps won't work...
Any app store will work... the only advantage about using google play store and google services is that you need google play services to get most google apps working such as maps, hangouts, etc. Also, any games that work with the Play store scoring system will require google play. Other than that, most 3rd party apps will work fine if they don't integrate with google play.
