Google camera without play services - OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers

Hello all,
I do not use Google play services on my phone. Is there any modded Gcam APK without the need to have Gapps installed? I tried almost all of them with no luck.
The official app from play store works without play services but I need HDR+ enabled.
Thanks in advance.

Did you have any luck meanwhile getting a port working without Play services?

help with google servieces please

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 Maybe you used an outdated guide?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.

Do you really need to install Google play store ?

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.

What version of Google Play Store?

Hi guys, would someone mind telling me what version of Google Play Store they are running? And Google Play Services too if they wouldn't mind.
I was downgrading some Google apps to get the voice recognition working better and caused some other problems and can't find a working version of the play store or play services.
Thanks

Updated Google play services ?

OK so I've successfully managed to get Google play services, framework, play store (non working of course) and login working on a non rooted firetv gen 2 5.2.4.0 and this is now allowing older games to work within the framework, although some can't login into the Google play.
Google play services however is requesting I update to the latest version and this hasn't yet been successful for me to find a compatible service. This is stopping me playing side loaded games like Dead Effect 2 etc as they require the new service and refuse to run without it being updated.
Has anyone managed to get a new version of play services and Google play to run on a non rooted fire TV ? Or failing that found a way to get side loaded games like Dead Effect 2 to run ?
Any help appreciated

Google play store?

Hello, I tried different technique yesterday found on the web, but none of them worked.
I would like to force the installation of the Google play store on my daughter's phone, I tried different apps like App gallery included, or aptoid, but we meet some problems on some applications like Gacha life that my daughter uses a lot.
The problem is that the game closes directly. (the version found on Aptoid)
So you have a solution to force google play store?

You can use Gspace that was deleted from AppGallery.
Here's APK:
