Is there a way to install the Google Play Store on a Chinese Note 7? Or some way to download the apps i've purchased from Google Play Store? I've tried going to the the Play Store site but my phone's not recognized since i can't add my Google account to the phone...
I read on a Chinese forum that people suggested loading the stock Hong Kong firmware for the Note 7 to get Google Play working and that it'd work fine on the Chinese model (and wouldn't break knox). Is this safe to do?
(and for reference, this is the page i was referring to: http://bbs.ngacn.cc/read.php?tid=9875562&pid=193800403&to=1)
I'm just speaking from experience on my China model of s6edge, flashing the HK firmware on that phone was definitely ok, I had no problems with the phone since going on the HK firmware. I haven't looked too deeply into the note 7 but you'll have to make sure the hardware is exactly the same, as well as the partition table of the two versions or you'll get an Odin fail.
Wait you cant have Google Play Store on a Chinese Note 7?

Nope, there's no Google anything by default on the Chinese market phones, some sort of falling out between Google and China. You'll need to flash the Google framework yourself.

Yeah Chinese Android phones don't have Google Apps or anything on them because the Chinese government won't let them.

Ouch! Thanks for this little info. Is it illegal or not ideal for one to have Google softwares on their phones there? Hmm I wonder if this will affect travels to China?

It used to be that all Google apps won't work in China, even gmail. But I think they loosened up the policy recently.
Thanks for the info, i'll try flashing it on there this evening. And a couple years back Google services were hit or miss, lately everything is blocked. Sites like this also have trouble loading because they use files hosted at googleapis.com (such as jquery), which are also blocked and a lot more annoying. So i've gotta use a VPN to view the site properly. It's not illegal, just inconvenient. My previous phone was a Chinese Vivo phone and i could install a package from the Vivo app store that installed the Google stuff for me (and use a VPN to access the Google Play Store). The Galaxy App Store is basically empty and doesn't have anything like that. I've tried installing the Google apps individually but it's still not working.
The Chinese and Hong Kong models are both "SM-N9300", i'm pretty sure the hardware is the same (and i know they also use the Snapdragon processor), is there any way i can check these things for sure?

Trial and error? The only thing I did was read up on the chinese forums for other people's success or failure stories. Once I saw numerous reports that they were successful, I felt more confident to do the same on my phone. Having an understanding of Odin and emergency restore also helps.
I just tried and my 电信 card doesn't work anymore. It's got Google Play though. Now i'm not sure which is better (assuming i can get the card to work), having the phone loaded with Google's stuff which doesn't work without a VPN or not having any of my purchased apps or easily download/update them but being able to actually use the phone... I might just switch back and wait for another method to pop up to enable Google Play on Chinese phones.

Neither work, i can't make phone calls or use data. I've got another card with a different company (China Unicom or China Mobile, i can never remember which) but it's too large to fit in the simcard slot, i'll see about getting it cut tomorrow and testing that.
Alternatively, i stumbled across this thread:

I might just try using that to root it and then installing something like Open GApps.

Sorry, i don't understand what you're asking. Why would i want what? I just want to be able to access the apps i've purchased through the Play Store on my old phones with my new phone. The apps aren't even available to purchase in the app stores in China and Chinese app stores generally only keep Chinese apps (like QQ, WeChat, Taobao, Alipay, etc.) up to date. I could just find a free way to get them (easy enough in China), but it makes updating more of a pain.
Anyway, gonna revert it back tonight to the original firmware and try installing TWRP with Open GApps.
EDIT: i've flashed it tons of times now and just finished flashing the Chinese firmware back on (again). I tried installing Open GApps but it just crashed the phone. I rooted the phone but it refused to install any APKs for some reason, not sure what exactly i've done to cause that. I just reflashed it again and am going through setup now, hopefully it'll be fixed. I'm not sure if it's got something to do with TWRP complaining about being unable to mount /data. It's too late to check into that tonight though.
EDIT2: Everything's working fine now on the stock firmware again, gonna try rooting it again tomorrow and see if i can manually install the Google Play Store.

I'm having the same issue. I've tried manually downloading the play store, services framework, play services and google login apks. Tried installing manually through sideloading. Tried copying to /system/app. In all cases both the play services and google services frameworks crash constantly. The play store itself is a white screen, with VPN enabled (from China).
If this method isn't going to work, where can I find an HK firmware version?

Just to add, I have rooted with SU.
If you have a working Google Play (outside china), a VPN while within China should allow you to update the apps. Please note, Oculus Store is also not accessible.

Yes, however I cannot install any of the google apps on this device. All attempts, including using google installer apks, manual installs, flashing Gapps, ,etc, all result in crashing apps. It almost seems aggressive.
My latest attempt to flash Gapps results in "Unfortunately the setup wizard has stopped" endlessly, essentially bricking the phone. I cannot get to any screens unless using the multitasking icon, and even then homescreen etc are inaccessible.
Try installing the APKPure app. Its pretty much just like the playstore (For free apps). And lets you update etc. And it doesnt require root.

That's the same issue i had with Gapps. I could press the menu button to bring up a list of open apps and use those, but going to the main homescreen just repeatedly prompted me with the setup wizard stopping dialog.
Google apps works with the Hong Kong version (comes preinstalled) so you should be fine with that. I think i flashed N9300ZHU1APGI, but i think that's the oldest version. The newest seems to be N9300ZHU2BPI5. If it has ZHU in the middle, that's for Hong Kong. ZCU is for China (TGY is the region code for Hong Kong, if you see that). The issue i had with that is that then everything is Google Apps and thus blocked in China, maps in WeChat use Google Maps instead of Baidu Maps for example. If you don't care about that, then i suggest trying to flash a Hong Kong firmware. It worked for me.
EDIT: I also forgot to mention that at first i couldn't use my SIM card, but later i'm not sure what i did, i think i booted into Recovery mode or something, but after that it worked. I'm not sure what it did.

I have the problem in the title. Of course, all the pre-loaded Google apps do not show in the Markeet downloads and they don't auto-update or show update notifications. I managed to install Youtube, Gmail and a few others by visiting the Market and installing them over the original pre-loaded app (I guess). Now I can find them in Markiet downloads.
The problem I have now is with Google Maps. It's not in the Market downloads, since I never downloaded it from there. But I can't even find it when I search the Market, I can't access any links or barcodes (the result will be "The requested item could not be found"), there seems to be no way for my phone to access a link for downloading Google Maps.
I have the original ROM, no root, and in the Google Maps About section I see "Version: 4.5.1 (#4665) gmm-android-htc". Is it an HTC version of Goole Maps?
What can I do? Do I need an .apk file? Why would this app be forbidden from showing up in Market for my phone? Maybe it's my phone region, but I doesn't make sense.
Any help is appreciated! Thanks!
These are market glitches and iv had times even on rooted phones with the market not showing certain apps that DO exist. What i did was reinstall the Google bundle apps but since your not rooted i am not quite sure what you can do but wait? or maybe a cache clean or a factory reset if all else fails
... or go settings, apps, running, find market, force stop, clear data. God knows if it'l help at all but always worth a shot.

Bingo! Not available in Romania yet I used temproot and MarketEnabler to get it.
Install the one from http://www.mediafire.com/?54mn0zw747vc1sh - I just got it from my phone.
@ddotpatel,aznsnake666 - Tried clear data, clear cache, etc. but it didn't work.
@keinengel - So I guess you have the same problem. Downloaded the file, it works! But I wonder why Google Maps isn't available for Romania?!?!? Thanks!

Yup, same problem. I think we need to gang up on Vodafone and get them to sign an agreement with Google for paid apps - maybe that'll fix it.
Google Maps was pre-installed in my ROM, so looking in the Market I could still see it though it wasn't showing as "Installed".
I simply clicked on "Install" and the new version overwrote the one in my ROM, and it works fine now.
I still don't get it... why is Google Maps availability depentent on region/carrier? It is a free app anyway. And since I paid for my phone which includes Google Maps, I think I should have access to updates too regardless of what country I'm in.
Hi, I just got myself an HTC One M8 today. Bought it here in Beijing, China, at a China Unicom store. Turns out they call it M8w, but it should, as far as I know, be very similar to the official Asian version (it has a 2.5 GHz CPU and both FDD-LTE and TDD-LTE). Google Play Store was not installed, so I'm trying to get it installed.
I tried installing Google Play Store using the "Google installer" app by Eric Xiang, mostly used for Xiaomi phones, but basically it's an app to download APK files manually and install them.
So far I've gotten Gmail and Google Translate to work without problems after installing it from the Google installer, but Google Play Store fails to start with a message saying "No connection" and a "Retry" button. This is probably because Google Services Framework (a dependency of Play Store) crashes after installation.
Any suggestions on what I should do? Do I need to root and put in a non-Chinese ROM?
Thanks in advance!
For the M8t, there is a easier way for Google Play service (gmail, map... etc),
Just search "GMS安装器" from HTC App store or Baidu App store. Then you are good to go.
For anybody that's interested, I didn't manage to get all Google apps running properly, so several months ago I flashed in this system dump instead. (I unlocked the bootloader and flashed it in using a utility I don't remember the name of, but I will look it up and update this post if I remember it.)
Haven't noticed any issues so far except for that I don't seem to be able to update anything OTA. But I guess that might be normal?

hey i have the m8w but with google play installed i bought it reconditioned but the camera isnt all that clear. can you help me out
Hey there!
On wednesday i purchased an fire phone.
Now i tried to get PlayStore to work. Installed it with The newest apk's and now here is the problem: i can log in and it sucesses,but i dont see any apps or categories in the Appstore. In the left side menue i see i am logged in.
Tried deleting cache, data and reinstalling.
Has anyone a fix for that problem?
Can you list the "newest" APKs (other than Play Store)?
Google Account Manager, Google Services Framework, Google Play services?
I did a number of test runs with different scenarios for other people. Never had any problems with the Play Store itself, even on a s#itty, unrooted stock FireOS.
Account-manager 4.4.2. 940549
Store 5.4.12
Play-services 7.3.29(1866531-036)
Framework 4.4.2-940549
Got them from the thread in the general forum
These are not the latest versions, you should use Play Store 5.6.8 & Play services 7.5.74 (1997312-036).
Let the Play Store and Play services auto update themselves, restart (make sure they are updated by checking the version number in the "manage applications" menu) and try again.
I recommend using sites like APKmirror, since the info in threads / posts can be outdated rather quick.

I had this but a cache clear etc worked. I noticed the play store got updated very recently on my nexus. Might this update have screwed things up for fire phone?
Same as your image. If i swype from left to right, I can see I am logged in.
Tried cache clean and erasing data several times, nothing changes.
Ok, let's recollect. The easy stuff:
Force quit the google apps before 'clear cache' and 'clear data'?
Are you using two factor auth. / 2 step verification?
Turn 2FA off or generate an application specific password and try again.
Any other google apps installed before you tried the "Play Store Pack"?
TheMightyFid, you're using the 461013320 UK version of FireOS? sg94 which version are you using? Netlocked devices?
The majority of people had problems on the xxxxxx320 versions, the 461013820 version (US unlocked GSM) worked well.
I tried stock 461013320 today, with the same 4 files that worked flawlessly 2 days before on the 461013820. Same problem as you guys: Blank screen, even FC on google account manager.
If you guys don't have any additional information for us about changes to the OS (e. g. apps with significant influence on system behavior) then I would suggest trying the 461013820 version.
All images are multi language (regarding the UI & keyboard), so you could use the US version for an EU user / phone. You might run into problems using certain WiFi channels (e. g. CH 13) because of the WiFi country codes.

Yes, it is the 4.6.1 UK edition, no luck past GSF 7.0.99
Received the FP with 3.5.0 att locked with unlock code from ebay deal today and now trying mess with it and got few questions that I just need to ask before I go any further in the path of no return.
First I`ve been somewhat following each steps here at this Guide to make fire os look normal. Everything is going smoothly and got all the way up to firing up google play but unable to download any apps from it. I`m guessing becuase I have missed installing the vending.apk before opening play store? Now I`m unable to install the vending.apk at all. Is it crucial to follow each install order of google services? Or am I missing something that`s preventing vending.apk install?
I`ve already factory restore the phone to try again but before redoing everything should I even try to upgrade to the most recent 4.6.1 and root at 4.6? Just asking because I`ve read somewhere along the way that upgrading to 4.6 solves some problems with play store. Or is it still best to stay at 3.5 for rooting purposes. I would like to eventually put CM11 in it.
Should I try to unlock the phone first with the included code from ATT before going all the way with rooting and to CM11? Will I be able to enter code with CM11? I just don`t have a nano SIM at the moment and just can`t wait to tinker with the phone. Or should I just stop at root/Google Now Launcher and unlock before trying CM11?
Is safe safestrap like just CWM recovery? Can I Make a backup of the rooted stock Fire OS 3.5 and install CM11 now and revert to stock if I need to?
I'm waiting for mine to come. Ordered from same deal I'm guessing. You can cut your current sim card down to nano if you really want to be adventurous.

Yeah I`ll be cutting in-laws sim so I`ll wait until I sort the phone out. Prime automatically adds a year after putting your amazon email account when registering the phone, went through without a hitch.
Ok so factory restore didn`t really restore everything. Google now app launcher still on when it booted up. So this will be a fun night. Any suggestions on what should I try next?

Not yet need nano sim card to unlock and that`s why I`m being wary on going through all the way tonight. They sent unlock code printed on a sticker with a disclaimer that basically saying once you claim the prime membership you are not able to return it. Found this unlock method for FP, does anyone knows other way of unlocking it without sim card?
I think you need a non att sim card so that it asks for the unlock code. That's going to be my issue. Don't know anyone with a non-att nano sim card

New to FP...one of the 2500 eBay purchasers
I'm in the same boat. Ordered my FP from eBay with the one year extension of Prime...so it was about $50 for the phone after tax and discounting the Prime membership. So my questions are...
1 - What is the best way to go to get Google apps working as I pretty much use much of the Google ecosystem. Should I sideload the Google stuff, or just root and go to CM11. I want to make sure I have all the LTE bands working and I'm not sure if CM11 changes the modem.
2 - If I stay with Amazon Android do I stay on Version 3 or upgrade to Version 4. Which works best with Google sideloads?
Any clear advice to a new user of FP. In the past I've had HTC and Samsung and always unlocked the bootloader and rooted. There is a lot in the forums I have to read but maybe somebody could encapsulate some advice to those peoples who seemed to have bought the eBay deal. Much thank for guidance from experienced users.
From my understanding, there is root for 4.6.1, and Google stuff seem to work better on 4.6.1. So I'm definitely planning on upgrading when I get the phone.
Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk
Ok found an old TMobile micro sim and just followed this guy and cut into nano and when I turned on the botched half rooted FP it just asked for the unlocked code and the code provided worked.
So this time I downloaded the Google services zipped file in this thread and jumped to his step 2 and when it came to step 2.iii I followed this guy`s instructions. I had to download es file explorer on amzon app store first so I can get to google services files that I had transferred from the comp. And turned off wifi so the auto update download will not finish downloading.
Basically I got google now launcher working fine was able to install the obligatory Facebook app until I updated the Market with Google play store. After that the dreaded "Google Play ervices has stopped" started popping.
I`m going to try to find a fix but if there`s none, it looks like updating to 4.6 would be the best route. Unless someone can give their 2 cents on this matter.
Ok so updated to 4.6 and rooted with kingroot. Play store worked great for few minutes andand found out about this white screen problem.
I`ll try to see how "stable" the cm11 which I doubt ready for daily use if not I`ll just have the inlaws use fire os. The update made it look closer to their old phone and actually not too bad. As long as they have facebook and candy crush they`re happy. Also mayday would actually benefit me in the long run
Update:
Used the apk files in this guide which looked newer versions and it seemed to do the trick this time while rooted with latest kingroot at 4.6. Even after I installed google now launch and google quick search which forced me to update the google services to use which also ended up updating the play store. So far no issues with play store.
Update:
Play store white death screen is back.......!!!!
I think I finally figured the fix for white death screen!!? The problem is ****ing google is auto updating the playstore automatically to a 5.xx version which breaks Playstore. Found the solution in this link. When GP auto update just disable/unistall updates and reinstall the older 4.6 GP or the last 4.8 GP apk version before 5.xx. Then I tried all possible options to block play store from auto updating. I used the Disable Services app method and the terminal emulator that someone suggested in the previous link. So far no white death screen.
Update:
Google managed to get around my solution and updated play store again, mfckers!
Any suggestions on how to block NSA auto updating play store?
I believe you need to use these on 4.6.1 http://forum.xda-developers.com/fire-phone/general/google-play-store-4-6-1-version-4-apks-t3098592 I never had an issue with it

Its a very stable rom. I've been using it one week today. It got an update 3 days ago. You will get the "play services stopped working message" but that's happening with stock. Play store has opened every time I try it. Unless you like fire os better I'd try the ROM. I was skeptical too. In fact, I wasn't anticipating using this phone as my daily driver but that's exactly what happened. Just make a backup of stock to be safe.
Finally I got everything figured out. I just flashed the flashable stock 4.6 image from this thread through safestap. And every google services seemed to be working properly now (Maps, Hangouts,Navigation etc.). I just installed nova launcher and the phone feels like regular android phone right now.
I'll stick with the fire os for now as I need the phone to be really stable before handing the phone to the in laws.

You do know that the CN version doesn't support all the bands that the US uses right?
As for the games, after you install Google Play, you need to login with your Google account. What will determine the region of the content you see is your account alone.

As for the games, after you install Google Play, you need to login with your Google account. What will determine the region of the content you see is your account alone.

my issue on googlepay is before paying
and normally we use google payment it will prompt u to use fingerprint or password but mine just dont appear at all
i live in singapore so its not region issue
I have the same problem. I have a black shark 3 pro though (CN). But I have two issues, Google pay or in game payment doesn't work, but at the same time Google maps doesn't work. Every other Google service works well. Can anybody explain to me what's happening here? Thank you.
Had this issue before, but probably because I messed up with the google play services/framework/store. Reset everything, install google installer from the app stofe, and voila payment works again (at the play store/in app purchase).

Yes it worked, I also had location based issue where I couldn't access Google maps. Just make sure your A-GPS settings are set to Google (in case you are using the CN version of the device) and you'll be fine as long as you grant all Google play services all permissions. Everything is working flawlessly now.
How did you access the A-GPS settings on your BS3? I'm on China ROM too but can't find it
Updated: finally able to access the A-GPS settings. Changed to supl.google.com but still didn't fixed the google maps issue in 3rd party apps such as grab. But i can use google maps just fine.

Hey, glad you were able to get it to work!
I followed this guide:
https://www.reddit.com/r/Xiaomi/comments/dkdwie/guide_how_to_fix_gps_and_notification_issues_for/
Might take a few hours for everything to kick in. Make sure everything is being synced. I don't know about that specific app but many major apps got maps working after that. Hope everything works out for you.

Hi, please ensure you allow ALL permissions to Google apps and set your GPS settings from CN to global Android using the reddit link I posted on the first page. Then wait for a good 1-2 hours of use to let everything sync in and everything should work perfectly.
No way it works...
Thanks a Lot, now it works all what I want... I dont get it, but it works
Edit: do I have to allow realy all permissions, like they can send SMS, delete contacts or See all my Accounts on Device?
I tried to get some permissions out und now Pokemon have no GPS xD
